WHY A COUNTY AGRICULTURIST
Under the above heading |. w.
Byers, who is president Of the Upper
Peninsula Grange association, writes
an interesting article for the Lake
Superior Farmer which is published
elsewhere in this issue of The Repor-
ter. Mr. Byers in advocacy of a
county sgriculturist writes
1.-THE farmer has doctor, dentist
veterinary, lawyer and preacher for
his special needs.
What it his potatoes get the blight,
his apple trees die, what ii he desires
to increase the efficiency of his dairy,
know what the demands OF a wider
market are, his soil gets sick and
countless other thingsy He has no one
to consult. Why not q farm doctor
The health offer, prosecuting attorney,
judge and other officials are paid by
the county at large. There is no
reason why the county Agricultural
should not be paid by the community
the same as the mine or factory
inspector.
The great trouble with many of the
farmers of Iron County is their total
ind ifference to the benefits to be
gained by imbibing the knowledge
that the other fellow may possess.
They farm >on the theory that they
know il all and no one else can tell
them anything worth knowing The
writer OF this has been a printer for 81
years and yet he doesn't pretend that
he knows it all He is reader every
week and month of four or five of the
beet trade journals published and
attends each year as many of the
meetings of the newspaper fraternitys
as he can.
The old sentiment that there Is
nothing new under the sun ia all pipe
dream, and our farmer readers would
be much better farmers if they would
coddle up TO such men as our county
agriculturist, men who make a bust
ness of getting as much out Of the soil
as it is possible to get for the money
and labor invested. The old time
farmer with hay in his whi skers il
rapidly disappearing and in his place
is to be found the newer and more
mp to.date and prosperous farmer the
man who makes farming "A business
proposition the same AS any other
line of business.
Iron county can well afford to keep
county agricutlurist on the pay roll.
We have mine inspector factory
inspector, hotel inspector and now
there is talk Of having county
physician, Then Why oppose a county

Rapids last Thursday and he took
occasion 20 rap the Democrats for
their action and disclosed several alleg-
cd deficiencies in the board
He scored the members roundly for
neglect of duty and sand the chairman

two years and had worked but about
one day week Drake admitted
having worked for Chase Osborn for

political work interfere with his state

much difference in the attitude of the

my actions on behalf of Mr.. OB-
born did not take any of my time
from my work on the Industrial ac-

Just prior 20 election the press
teemed with stories of the speeches
and travels being made bv state en-

nominee. Any man who draws his
salary from the state is just AZ much
an employe OF the state, even il he
holds commission from the governor
as a clerk in any department. II it
Is wrong for a clerk 10 take an active
interest in politics. IL must he wrong
for the state appointee no matter what
his position. II politics has no place
in the industrial board, probably the
people of Michigan would be IN
terested in knowing what caused the
practical cessation Of work during
October by the Democrats on the
board, and the long delay i'm settlement
OF the many matters before the board
for consideration. Cases have dragged
For months that should have been
settled without any delay.
Petitions for relief by the dozen
have been before the board. but for
weeks no action has been taken The
average court could hardly show a
worse record, and nobody expects a
court TO he mp to the times. but body
of the nature OF the industrial accident
board, which has but one class OF cases

has devoted but little more than two

The governor offers the services of
a detective to any sheriff who sees
fit to call upon him for such aid.
Governor Trammell refers to past
practices in this state wherein cam
didates for Office have virtually been
forced to employ the aid of vote
getters" and calls upon the sheriffs
to aid the candidate in Kidding

To the farmers who have oats: /
notice oats are beginning to show
signs of rust. You can prevent this
to a certain degree by running over
your oats with a weeder, and after
using weeder SOW from so to 100
pounds of nitrate of soda per acre.
If your land is good and your oats
are thick, / would advise not to use
less than 100 pounds of nitrate of
soda per acre, and Immediately after
putting the soda on run your weeder
over the oats again SO as to get the
land thoroughly pulveriZed. If you
haven't weeder use pig tooth
harrow, setting the teeth slanting
back to an angle of about forty-fve
degrees This will serve just as good
as weeder and probably better in
stiff, wet land Don't harrow oats
if land is too wet. Some are using
a cutaway harrow on oats If you
use this harrow keep your disc set
ting straight. This will chop through
the oats and will tear up only a
small per cent of them. | will be An
