 IA standard Crop For New London
 County.
 One of the greatest essentials Of the development of a. agricultural community is that of standardizing the cropping system. Int greatest results come when the various com munities unite to raise one definite crop thereby, prohting by the cooper ation in purchasing seed, implements, supplies and in the end by selling to- gethers This idea has been worked out in the West and has given great success. For example we have the various fruit growers selling all their produce throusht their own exchange, many New York counties raise some community crop like cabbage.
 The most profitable fruit growing is in those communities where the most fruit is grown. Here in our. county and in most of New England except 2. few scattering communities in Maine and Vermont where they handle potatoes and apples together the farmers seem afraid to raise any. other crop that their neighbor Is planting. Instead of all raising one variety of potatoes for cash crop we and nearly 75 varieties being planted Also there are onions, carrots, turnips, and various other crops in varying amounts. Of course much of this IS necessary to supply our local markets. but # communities can get together

WHEELING, oct. 2s.That the

Backing up his charges, the distin-

prosperity, caused idleness and pow
