stockholders who showed more than
ordinary interest in the meeting. The

fight has been advertised for the
meeting, that growers have pooled
their stock, and that there were many

He Gets Potatoes.

Our genial friend, Uncle John
Ham, near Saluvia, took time
while in town last Monday, to
drop in and. among other things,
tell how he raises potatoes. Mr..
Hann's method is to plow down
amoderate amount of stable ma
nure, on ordinary soil not too
rich nor too compact. He then
takes the bullplow and opens up
a furrow, two feet wide where
the potatoes are to be planted.
Hen manure mixed with ashes
are then sprinkled sparingly in
the furrow, the potatoes dropped
and, with the bullplow, the last
furrow is then turned back to
cover the potatoes. The potatoes
then come up in a uniform man.
ner along the edge of the furrow
Mr.. Ham does not "hill up" his
rows, but cultivates by keeping
the surface level. His crops are
uniformly satisfactory.

Another HOId.up.

On last Saturday evening while
Lloyd Cutchall and lady friend
were on their way to this place
they were waylaid by a crowd of
fifty men and women who at
tackled the young man and each
pulled his ears eighteen times,
which, multiplied by fifty, means
that they pulled his ears 900
times. Not being satisfied the
crowd compelled the young peo-
pie to return to the home of
Lloyd's parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
w. F. Cutchall, where every one
of them-and then some-spent
ajolly evening. When time came
to disperse, the fifty-eight revel-
lers thanked Mr.. and Mrs. Cutch-
all for the good time, saying that
the rough treatment of the son
was only intended to show that
there was no hard feelings be-
tween them on his eighteenth
birthday.

A Near.thief.

When Wilbur Grissinger and
his brother-in-law, D. E. Little,
were driving home from Mer-
cersburg last Sunday night, after
having taken Mrs. Grissinger to
the hospital in Chambersburg on
Friday, a sneak thief attempted
to lift a package from the back
part of the buggy. Mr.. Griss-
niger was carrying a pocket
flashlight in his hand at the time
and hearing a slight noise, flash
ed the light on the would-be thief
who dropped his hold on the
package and disappeared into the
darkness.
The attempted theft took place
near the Fruit Farm, and it is
said that several similar attempts
have been made at various times
near the same place.

Remedy for Meningitis.

DEAR EDIToR;-Noticing in
your paper that spinal-meningi-
tis has made its appearance in
your county with fatal results,
wish to say that passed through
a siege of this dreadful malady
in West Tennessee one year ago
last December, where a great
many persons were afflicted and
the death loss was heavy. The
remedy most successfully used
was DoBells solution of arsenic
used as a gargle, and applied
with an atomizer into the nos
trils and throat. By the use of
this remedy the disease was prac
tically stamped out. suggest
that you publish this fact in your
paper that the readers of the
News may have the advantage
of the information. The remedy
is not expensive; but might sug
gest, that inasmuch as it is a
poison, it should be used by the
direction of your home physician.

ton county; for it was in the

less, the Editor will recall Sun

ded more than half a century
ago. My name is j. E. Myers,

Badly Sprained Ankle.

On last Sunday evening Miss
Marion Sloan, while on her way
to church, stepped into hole in
the pavement, left by the Water
Company at the corner of Second
and Water streets, and severely
sprained her ankle. Neighbors
assisted her back to her home.
Why the Water Company is al
lowed to tear up the pavements
and put them down in any old
slipshod way without protest
from the town authorities or the
property owners is a mystery.
Travellers to and from the post
office are daily expecting to hear
of a serious accident on account
of the water that runs across and
freezes on the sidewalk between
the post office and Water street.
Who will pay the damage when
it occurs? That somebody will
pay is sure as taxes.

NUMBER 24
DEPARTMENT WANTS HELP.
How Farmers Can Teach Agricultural
Scientists In The United States
Department Of Agriculture.

1t is not enough that the coun-
ty agent be simply a common
carrier of ideas" from farmer to
farmer. He is to be a go-be-
tween to gather facts and eXper-
fences in the light of local eondi-
tions and needs. Then he is to
go step farther and carry the
experience and the ideas Of the
farmers themselves to the De-
partment Of Agriculture and the
agricultural colleges; for these
institutions are as much in need
of the farmers wisdom and an
accurate knowledge of the farm
er's problems as the farmer is in
need of the information which,
agricultural institutions can give.
Active and mutually helpful
cooperation is needed between
the farmers themselves and all
of the public agencies intended
to promote agriculture and agri-
cultural education. The farmer
needs the facts and the explana-
tions which the scientists can fur
nish. The scientists and teach
ers are not less in need of the
facts and the point of view of the
farmers, they need to learn the
superscience which farmers call
common sense, that wholesome
wisdom that is the essence of the
thought and experience of gener-
ations of men who have made
good through work and thought
and thrift and unconscious adap-
tation to circumstances.
In nearly every county it will
be found that most of the serious
agricultural problems have been
solved by several of the good
farmers. There is no better way
of teaching a scientific truth than
by calling attention to some one
who is successfully practicing it.
1t will often be found that the
successful farmer has not stop
ped to analyze the cause of his
success and may often attribute
it to the wrong factor. The les
son is there just the same. News

Held a Banquet.

Harrisonville, Lodge, No. 710,
|. O. O. F. held their annual ban
quet last Saturday evening in the
Metzler Hotel at that place.
About forty members and their
wives attended. Guests from
this place were Hon. John P.
Sipes, Prof. B. c. Lamberson,
Messrs. c. B. Stevens and A. B.
Wilkinson. The oysters which
were the principal dish, were
served by the Rebekahs, and
were pronounced by experts to
be a little the finest oysters ever
brought to the county. In ad-
dition to 18 gallons of oysters,
the crowd swallowed about 30
gallons of chicken swallop, not
to mention cabbage, pickles and
the other usual trimmings.

Almost a Wizard.

What Thomas A Edison is to
the electrical world, Luther Bur-
bank is to the agricultural and
horticultural worlds. At his ex-
perimental station in California,
he spends nearly all his earn
ings a quarter million developing
new forms of plant life that are
useful to mankind. He has sue
ceeded in crossing berries of diff
ferent kinds until new forms,
adapted to our climate, have been
projected and will produce them
selves true to type. He has given
the arid regions of "The Great
American Desert" a spineless cac
tus plant that produces food for
several head of cattle per acre
the year round.
He has not only produced seed
less fruits, but stoneless plums,
finer cherries, apples peaches,
ounces and new nuts and vege-
tables. He has a new chesnut
that will bear at a year and a
half old, and has borne in half
that time. The number of new
flowers is almost endless.
The great feature of Mr.. Bur-
banks experiments is that his
new varieties, in many instances
prove so much superior to COM
mon kinds, that, in a very few
years, they will come into gener-
al use after the test of time
proves their value.

NOCULATION OF CLOVER.
Reuben R. SipeS Had Splendid Results
on His Farm in Licking
Greek Township.

incubation of clover in this
district has long since passed the
experimental stage. have seer
many fields where the difference
between clover from inoculated
and uninoculated seed could be
seen right to the line. This cov-
ers cases of dry-killing, winter.
killing and choking out by weeds.
1913 was carrot year," but
carrot was much less in evidence
in the inoculated clover fields.
The reason is not hard to find.
The spring was unfavorable to
clover and held it back until the
carrot got too great a start. But
with the inoculated clover, the
added vigor due to the nitrogen
furnished by the Bacteria enabled
the clover to hold the carrot
down.
We are told that lime will bring
clover. That is generally true,
and it always helps. But where
we have been having clover fail
ure this rule is unsafe; it must
be lime plus incubation.
In the spring of 1913, Mr.. Reu-
ben R. Sipes, wide-awake,
Licking Creek farmer, seeded
clover on two lined fields, under
precisely similar conditions ex-
cept that the seed for one field
was inoculated and for the other
not. In the fall of the year the
clover from the inoculated seed
was as fine and thrifty a field Of
clover as | have ever seen, even
on limestone land, while the clo-
yer in the other field was about
all in" incubation made the
difference.
The best practice is to drill in
air-slaked lime to drill capacity
at wheat seeding, seed inoculated
clover in the spring, narrowing
the seed in, if possible. That
will make clover as certain as is
humanity possible.
1t costs nothing to inoculate,
except ten minutes labor for a
bushel of seed; it can do no harm.
Try it. Send me postal telling
when you expect to seed and how
much seed you will use and / will
see that the material reaches you
and that directions for it's use
are sent.
Remember that every clover
failure affects every other crop
of the rotation and don't take a
chance of failure.
