To balance represent
ing deficit $


The foregoing statement shows a
somewhat unsatisfactory financial con-
diton and in representing it, the com
mittee wish to briefly call attention to
the following unfavorable conditions
met with during the past two or three
years:
While it is, and always has been, our
firm conviction that funds for work of
this or any other character should al
ways be provided before the work is
undertaken, or financial obligation as
sumed to meet the expenses of such
work, yet so little was known through
out the county about the rural work of
the Y. NJ. c. A. that little or no sup
port could be gained for it until the
work itself had been to some extent
| developed and both the work of devel-
opment and that of securing financial
support has devolved upon the county
secretary. Because of this an indebt-
edness was incurred during the fore
part of Secretary Moran's administra-
ton, and to meet this and provide ready
money for necessary expenses, the
guaranteed note above referred to, was
given.
A few months subsequent to the Civ
ing of this note, Secretary Moran was
stricken down with a serious illness
from which however, it was hoped from
month to month"; he would recover, but
this hope was not realized and in Janu
airy, 1913, his resignation was rendered
and accepted and the committee was
confronted with still further deficit
which however was met from the pri
vate purses of the committee with the
assistance of the State association.
Notwithstanding the Heterogeneous
encountered, the committee has great
faith in the work and hopes as to results
to be derived from it, and is unanimous
in its conclusion to continue it, and in
view of the experience of the last few
months, believes that no further serious
difficulty will be encounteredin securing
ample financial support.
NOTES.
The county committee issue request
to all boys, especially those connected
with the Boy Scouts or Y. M. c. A. to
assist in the destruction of the worms
so prevalent on the fruit and forest
trees at this time of the year. The
most common of these worms this year
are the forest and apple tent cater
pillars. The egg masses are laid by a
butterfly in the fall of the year on the
twigs of fruit and forest trees. They
hatch out early in spring, feed on the
new foliage for six or eight weeks and
then pass into a cocoon stage.
Prof White addressed the college Y.
NJ. c. A. meeting Tuesday on "The
Place of Christianity in History.
Esten, IA, was leader.
Secretary Morhous made trip to
Ripton on Tuesday of this week in an at
tempt to interest the school children in
the Y. M. C. A. agricultural contest.
On Wednesday, in company with Supt.
A. w. Eddy he visited the schools of
Salisbury for the same purpose. Mr..
Morhous is exhibiting unusually keen
interest in the contest and is anxious to
get in touch with all who may be in
terested.

Spring Crop
Conditions Good

That spring crop conditions are ex-
cellent. and the prospects for big crops
are as good or better than they have
been at any time for several years. is
the, opinion Of old and experienced
farmers of the county. Seeding and
blowing are further advanced than
usual at this time, and weather condi-
tions have, been such that progress is
being made rapidly.
Most of the oats has been seeded and
large part Of the spring blowing is
done. The last two weeks, and par
ticularly last week, was ideal for break
ing up the fields and getting them ready
for the seed The recent cool, moist
weather has started pastures growing
rapidly. The winter wheat came thru
the winter in splendid condition. Altho
there was little snow to protect the
dormant crop. there were no prolonged
cold spells to freeze and kill the plants.
