Individual Aid to Farmers.
Individual aid to the farmers of
the Buckeye state is now the pur-
college of agriculture. The college is
planning to send soil experts all over
the state during the next two months
to give personal and individual aid
to farmers who call for advise in
problems of soil fertilization. The in
dividual aid is considered necessary
owing to the varieties of soil in Ohio
and the separate problem which each
farm presents for solution. The new
campaign is expected to work Won
ders in the way of opening up new
Cling agriculturists. 1t is thought
that many farmers who have been
sowing one kind of crop year after
year will be shown the advisability
of trying something entirely new and
that the new results will be marvel
| GUS.
Believe Situation Grave.
Leading National Guard officials
here believe that the Mexican sit
uation is more grave than many peo-
pie imagine. Estimates of the serious
state of things are the result of the
fact that the adjutant generals Of
Ohio, Pennsylvania and Indiana have
been asked by the national admins
tration if the National Guards of these
states are sufficiently equipped to take
the field at once, if necessary. Each
state is requested to advise the war
department at Washington if the
equipment on hand is ample for the
prescribed strength of each organiza-
tion. The various states are not
ordered to get ready for call, but
the national administration seems
anxious just the same to know what
they shall be able to expect should it
be decided to send troops to Mexico.
Trying to "Beat" New Law.
Commission men throughout the
state are trying to beat" the new
sales-by-weight law, according to in
formation sent to State Dairy and
Food Commissioner Strobe by city
sealers of weights and measures. In
Steubenville it is reported that an
agreement has been prepared to be
signed by, the purchaser and dealer
by which it is hoped to continue the
old method of selling by measure.
This agreement states that it remains
in effect until cancelled by either
party to the contract. The commits
sioner declares it is unlawful because
an agreement can only be made for
one sale, and not for an unlimited
number, as contemplated by the form
of agreement. Those who use it more
than once will be liable to arrest. At
Findlay the merchants are claiming
that apples, potatoes and peaches in
baskets and barrels covered with
netting and burlap are sealed pack
ages and as such are exempt from the
law. Strobe says that they are not,
and if sales are made this way arrests
will follow. At East Liverpool pota-
toes are being sold by the barrel by
. marking each barrel lao pounds when
the contents weigh $50 or more
| pounds. Commissioner Strobe regards
; this as false weight.
Convicted of EmbezzIement.
, Complaints that he was hitting a
pace" have been ruinous for Will j.
, Taylor, former treasurer of Morgan
. county, who was convicted of embez-
element and sentenced to an indeter-
, inmate period in the Ohio penitenti-
airy, but who was given his liberty
under the probation law Immediately
after his sentence Taylor was taken
