each year. From the

applications each year. From the
acre and q quarter, 700 bushels of ap-
pies were harvested in 1910, $50 in
1911, and $50 in 1912. The late
spring frosts hurt the orchard this
year as they did in others, and but
so bushels comprised the crop. Such
satisfactory results should be an en-
couragement to general farmers, who
desire home orchard that will give
them good fruit. They show that
the farmer who is willing to give a
fair amount of care to his trees may
expect to produce quantity and quail
ity now as well as formerly.
Ohio State University will take an
active part in the Ohio State Poultry
Show which will be held in Colum-
bus at the Hartman Coliseum during
the week of January 20. Students in
the winter course in poultry hus-
bandry will set up the coops for the
entire show; the poultry department
of the University will hold an educa-
tional exhibit and conduct poultry
institute each day during the week;
will be given on kill
ing, picking, dressing and caponizing
poultry and the washing of birds for
the show room. The amateur will
be initiated into all the secrets con-
nected with the preparation of poul-
try for exhibition An effort is be-
ing made to secure the cooperation
of all other state institutions that
have courses in poultry industry.
Prof. F. S. Jacoby, who is president
of the Ohio State Poultry Show Asso-
citation, is desirous of securing the
attendance of all farmers interested
in raising pure bred poultry. Fur

A FINAL APPEAL,

The annual meeting of the Fulton
County Soldiers and Sailors Monu-
mental Association will be held at
the court house in Wauseon, Febru-
ary 18th. We are still far from hav-
ing funds enough pledged to pay for
the proposed Soldiers monument and
therefore for the honor of the heroes
of this county living and dead, for
the honor of the patriotic citizens of
this county this final appeal is made,
first to the teachers of the county.
1t is within your province to teach
patriotism and you honor yourselves
when so doing. Will you, teachers
of the public schools, arrange for a
meeting in the school house in which
you are teaching on the evening of
January 18th, at which time this
cause shall be presented and an op-
portunity given for those present to
contribute to this fund. Subscription
blanks will be forwarded to you di-
rect upon application to the secre-
tary, Miss Kathryn B. Weir, Wau-
seon, Ohio. Returns of money and
pledges should be made to Miss Weir.
Clerks of the various boards of edu-
cation are asked to see to it that
every teacher in his jurisdiction is
Informed in regard to this appeal and
the citizens of the county are earn
estly invited to join their gifts large
or small with those already contrib
uted to make fund sufficient to
erect this memorial and pay the
debt of honor the county owes to its
soldiers and sailors of the sixties.
At least $4,000 is needed; the Of
icers of the association are working
| without pay and practically every
cent contributed will go into the
monument and it's erection. Those
teachers and clerks who respond to
this appeal will have their names
published in Roll Of Honor and the
subscription lists which constitute a
roll of honor in themselves will be
preserved; there will be certificates
issued to all persons contributing
S1.00 or more. Let US all work to-
gether to accomplish this object.
| All persons who will call a meet
ing on Wednesday, Jan. 18th, will
please correspond with the secretary,
Miss Kathryn B. Weir, Wauseon, o.,
at once and information and explain
atoms will be sent them.

MALE STENOGRAPHERS AND
TYPEWRITERS IN DEMAND

The United States Civil Service
Commission announces that while it
has no difficulty in securing sufficient
female stenographers and typewrit-
ers to meet the needs of the depart
ments at Washington, the supply Of
male eligibles has not been equal to
the demand. Young men who are at
least eighteen years of age and who
are willing to accept the usual en-
trance salaries, which are $840 and
5000 year, have excellent oppor-
tunities for appointment. While the
entrance salaries are low, advancement
is reasonably rapid to those meriting
it. The examinations which any
competent stenographer should be
able to pass, are held each month in
the year except December at the
principal cities of the United States.
Full information in regard to the
examination may be secured bv ad-
dressing the United States Civil Ser

4 PROTEST
Copy of Correspondence Sent to
to Governor Cox by Ohio Tax
League-Will 1t Make Differ
ence?

Cleveland, O., December 20, 1918.
Hon. James M. Cox, Governor,
Columbus, Ohio.
Honorable Sir:
The disgraceful increase in the un-
just burden of taxation on the homes
and the farms must be stopped and
the disastrous results of tax evasion
and perjury must be ended in Ohio.
= The people of Ohio demand that
taxes be reduced one per cent, and
this can be brought about only by
reaching the Hidden Wealth, as the
farms and homes of the state are to-
day paying not only their own tax,
but the taxes of those who evade
their share.
1t is the greatest question now be-
fore the people. The matter Of a
taxation amendment has been sub
mitted to the people at four different
times, and has failed simply because
of the technical defects of the form
er Constitution. This is now cured,
and the question must be submitted
to the people again.
This organization enters its vigor-
Gus protest against your position in
ignoring that tax reform which has
been approved by three Special Tax
Commissions, and by all political
parties. The people must be given an
opportunity again to decide for them
selves and the first question before
the January session of the Legisla-
ture should be to submit a Tax
Amendment to the people.
During the past four years a pol
/ icy of Political Expediency has con-
trolled, and in spite of the warnings
of experts, an experimental propa-
ganda of tax reform was foisted up
on the people with the sad result that
the unequal burdens have been in
creased.
The progressive state of Wisconsin
has led the way by removing double
taxation and confiscatory taxes on
personal property. When this is
done, the returns from personal prop
erty will be so much greater that
the taxes on real estate and the home
can be strictly limited to one per
cent, and still provide enough rev.
enue.
The problem of reaching personal
property is not difficult one, if the
tax is fair. There are successful
methods which will enforce the COL
lection of every dollar without op-
portunity for evasion, and with but
slight cost of collection.
Ohio expects that its men in power
will take this problem and solve it
courageously.
Very truly yours,
OHIO TAX LEAGUE.
Office of the President.

FOR THE FARMER
Notes From the Agricultural Col
ge-Proying the Worth Of Cows
Good Fruit for General Farmer
20. s. U. at Poultry Show.

Some of the leading farmers of
Gallia county, Ohio, are awakening to
the possibilities of organized effort
and cooperation. This has led them
to form two cooperative crganiza-
tions, the Gallia County Cow Testing
Association and the Gallia County
Buying Association. The same Of
ficers control both organizations and
one man can belong to both or only
one. Each of the 25 men who are
now in the Cow Testing Association
pay SIS toward the expense of keep
ing q tester and If more than ten
cows are being tested by member,
the cost is $1.5O per cow. Since there
are 26 working days in the month,
the tester is busy every day. One
man found that one of his cows gave
1855 pounds of milk in the month of
November. The milk contained 60.75
pounds of butter-fat which was sold
for 33c per pound. The value of this
and the skimmilk amounted to $23.97.
The cost for feed was $3.50, leaving
a profit of $17.17 for one COW for
one month. This same man living on
a 16O-acre farm in Gallia county sold
$500 worth of hogs during the year

cream. This showing was made in
a county where the soil is supposed
to be poor. The activities of the As
sociation are also applied to the buy
ing of fertilizers and feed. When or
ders are taken for the purchase of
any large quantity of feed or fertil-
izer, each order must be accompan-
led by $500 in cash. When the fer
tilizer arrives the buyer takes it from
the car and pays for it at that time.
Should he refuse to take it he for
feits the $500. A saving of several
dollars per ton is effected by such CO.
operative buying. With such practi-
cal results as this already realized by
several farmers organizations in
Ohio the outlook Tor this phase of
cooperation is bright.
The statement is often made and
nearly as many times believed that
the general farmer cannot take the
time or go to the bother of raising
good fruit. The results obtained by
w. H. Sears of Barnesville, Ohio, OPP
pose any such generalization. Mr..
Sears is a dairyman who also has a
home orchard of one and a quarter
acres. The orchard contains over
twenty varieties of apples with pre-
dominance of Rome Beauty. Mr..
Sears keeps his orchard in sod, prunes
carefully and sprays, making four

WILL FEATURE DAIRYING

Dairying will be featured at the
Agricultural Extension School which
will be held at Lyons during the week
of January 10. 1t is the subject in
which the people of this community
have signiied that they are espec-
tally interested and for this reason
the College, of Agriculture has given
it a prominent place in the program
of the Extension School. While
dairying does not comprise the only
type of farming in this community, it
is one that is paying growers in this
part of the state excellent returns if
it is carried on as it should be. A
week spent at the Extension School
will give every farmer an opportun-
ity to learn of the requirements and
possibilities of ,dairying. L. P. Bail
ey, a successful dairyman of Tacoma,
and president Of the Ohio State
Dairymen's Association, will be the in
structor.
In addition to dairying, demonstra-
tions and instruction will be given in
soil fertility, farm crops and home
economics. 1t will be the aim of the
college instructors to inform the
farmers of this community of the
best and latest practices that can be
adapted to their own farms. More
apparatus and illustrative material
will be used than in former schools.
The school will last five days. Each
day will be taken up with an inter
esting program in which both men
and women can take part.
Extension schools are the most i'm
portant part of the extension service
as conducted by the Ohio State Uni
versity. They have been successfully
conducted in all parts Of the state and
the demand this year has been great
er than ever before. The Ohio law
limits one school to county. For
these reasons the people of this vi
cinity may consider themselves for
tunate in securing the school as many
other parts of the state asking for
them could not be reached.

SERIOUS CATARRH
YIELDS TO HYOMEI

Do not let this serious disease ex-
tend along the delicate mucous mem
brane, gradually going from the nose
to the throat, thence into the bron-
cchlal tubes and downward into the
lungs.
There is no other treatment for ca
tarrh that is like Hyomei or Just as
good. None can take it's place, none
give such quick, effective and sure
relief and at so little cost-further-
more Read & Wager will refund your
money if you are not satisfied.
Begin using Hyomei now-today-
and see how quickly the droppings
into the throat, the discharge from
the nose, shifting and all other symp-
toms of catarrh are overcome; and
remembering stomach drugging-
you breathe it. The complete out
fit containing inhaler and bottle of
liquid costs but $100. Extra bottles
of liquid, if later needed, so cents.
