Southern Illinois is the Eden OF the
tomato in the north as is the Crystal
Springs (lfiss) region in the south
II Is estimated that over 1000 car
loads Of 1000 half bushel crates each
went out from Union county last
season IN spite Of the fact that frost
cut down many Of the first plants set
In the fields. These felds were com
puted at over 100 acres, and II Is be-
lieved that the acreage this season WI
be even greater
This industry Of southern Illinois be
gan many years ago near Golden
which is now a great shipping point
Like nearIy every other agricultural
speciality Il requires a hustler" behind
It. Growing the plants from seed In
hotbeds. protecting the beds with
straw or canvas on cold nights. uncov-
ering to give the benedt OF the sun IN
the day and providing ventilation
whenever possible. all this calls for
eternal vigilance. quick and good judg
ment and unlimited exertion.
Plants are. as a'rule, set out through
the first two weeks or more Of MAJ

Burlington, Wilt is said that there
are over twoscore OF so called log
rules" more or less used in various re-
gions, for determining In advance OF
the saving the actual number Of board
feet in a log. Concerning this vital
matter Dr. AL. Daniels professor Of
mathematics IN the University OF Yer
mont. thinks that the farmer and in
certain cases the log buyer have Jared
hardly in their attempts TO solve the
question. "How many board feet in

la that appears TO be in some ways n
distinct advance over its predecessors
II Is at any rnte worthy the attention
OF anybody who deals in logs.
In bulletin 102 OF the state experi
ment station DR.. Daniels states that in
tnking up the study OF the measure
ment OF logs II soon became evident 70
him that not one OF the rules in a list
OF forty or more in use In this country
and Canada was based on an adequate
knowledge of mathematics and that not
one Of them afforded reasonable or
equitable results. Some rules are un-
Just TO the buyer on small logs and un-
just to the seller on large logs while
others run the contrary way He en-
deavored TO find the true mathematical
rule, one that should mete out even
Landed justice TO both parties, and he
believes he has found It. Or. Daniels
makes his argument for what he has
named "the universal log rule" and
gives explanations OF interest as to the
mathematical reasoning on which be
