Kansas cffers the strongest, the most
convincing proof Of the widespread and
far-resching benefits OF saloonless

penditures for liquor now aggregates
80 million dollars year Compare
Kansas annual expenditure Of $f.25

That makes 80 cents it would

besides, it would require 2

then you would have to wait

the fact that such a large sum

BITTER ROT IN ORCHARDS

Bitter rot this year is proving seri-
Gus in some orchards. 1t is the one
disease of apples which must be
fought hard from its first appearance
in the orchard If il is to be controlled
at all. Even IL there is only a tree
OF two showing the disease, steps
should be taken at once to spray and
TO clean out the diseased fruit. Ii may
be worth while to strip the affected
tress entirely and take the fruit
to the evaporation rather than take
any chance on leaving a small infec-
ton to later become a rotten spot
and help to spread the trouble.
Bordeaux Mixture Spray.
The spray mixture used for bitter
rot is bordeaux mixture at strength
Of l0-l0-100, Its application to the
fruit and twigs and limbs of the trees
simply prevents the spread of the
disease by preventing the growth OF
terminating spores.
Spraying will not pay where the
bitter rot is not first removed from
the trees. and If there is so much rot
in the orchard that it cannot be re-
moved without taking all the fruit,
that portion of the orchard would
best be Stripped Lee Hewett,
Plant Pathologist, Arkansas College Of
Agriculture, Fayetteville.

OF Mutual Benefit

At the present time there is
much agitation for Good Roads
not only in our own county, but
in our entire state; and neither is
it confined solely to this bound
airy, as all the states of the
Union are joining in the clamor
for Good Roads.
Good Roads is the connecting
link between the farm and the
town. In this commercialized
day when rush" is the pass
word good roads are an absolute
necessity as the city man must
have the farmers produce at the
earliest possible moment, and
good roads not only makes it
possible for our rural brother to
haul larger and heavier loads,
but to make more frequent trips.
Not only that, but during rainy
weather when it is impossible
to work the fields, he can
make good use of his time
by hauling stuff to market.
Perhaps one of the most en-
thusiastic Good Roads boosters
in the Ozark country is the club
at Springfield, Mo. In that vi
cinity over 500 miles of good
roads have been constructed and
at the present time there are
over 200 miles under construc-
ton. And incidentally the same
boosters are contemplating a
rock road from Springfield to
st. Louis, which will mean
another stretch of about 275
miles of good roads.
The writer had the pleasure
this spring of taking an automo-
bile trip from the eastern part
of Wisconsin to the western part
of the state. In the main the
roads were all in excellent con-
dition; many miles were macada-
mixed while for stretches of mile
after mile we rode on solid con-
crete roads. They find it pays
big returns.
So the Good Roads agitation in
our own county should be given
every encouragement. The
town man should extend his
hand to his country brother and
work in harmony on this great
project which is of mutual bene-
fit.
