Plan the Garden Now.

Some time and thought should
be given TO planning the garden
before time to begin preparing
the soil for the seed. Many farm
gardens may be greatly improved
by a little planning by the farm
household at this time. Success
OF the garden means satisfactory
yields and full development of
crops with economy of time, Ia
Dor, space and money. Try a few
novelties but mako the main part
of the order of standard varie-
ties. A complete plan of the
garden should be finished some
weeks before garden operations
are begun. It is we'll to draw a
plan of the garden on which is
shown the location of each kind
of vegetable, fruit. or flower.

Hay Crops.

Timothy and millet are low in
protein. Clover aid alfalfa are
comparatively rich in protein and
that is the reason they are such
good milk makers. Alfalfa is
the better but clover is good.
Clover and alfalfa both enrich
the soil, but clover may be grown
where it seems impossible to gel
good stand of alfalfa. How
ever, Joe Wing, an authority or
alfalfa culture, says that alfalfa
can be grown in any part of Ohio
by properly preparing the sol
before sowing it. Have a patch
of alfalfa if you can, but if you
cannot, grow clover.

Reindeer in Alaska.

The extent of the reindeer in
dustry in Alaska under the Uni.
ted States Bureau of Education
is indicated by the fact that it
covers a territory as long as from
Maine to South Carolina. If a
line were drawn through the 50
herds it would stretch more than
5000 miles. There are over SO,
900 reindeer in these h herds, two
thirds of them owned by the ma
tives is estimated at $500, 600,
and from them during the past
year was derived an income of
$25, 900, in addition to meat and
hides consumed by the natives
themselves.

The Pressing Need Of

Under a protective tariff domes-

Adequate" Is the Right
Word.

Someone has said that when
the Republican party again is
called into power Congress will
not dare to enact a "high'' tar
if. The ', ord high" does not
mean the same under all condi-
tions. Sometimes it means ele-
waited in place, lofty, honorable,
noble, full, or complete. Then
it has some other meanings.
When one uses the word high"
it does not tell the right tale un-
less the user of the word goes
into some detail.
A better word when applied to
a protective tariff is Adequate"

Wire Worms.

Wire worms are usually yellow
or reddish brown, are smooth and
chitinous, and have three pairs
of short legs near the front of
the body. There are many kinds
of wire worms and they vary in
length from one-half inch to ov-
er three inches. They are more
readily recognized when grown
into adult beetles. These beetles
are known in certain localities as
"click beetles" skip jacks, :"
swapping beetles," etc. These
names are ali derived from the
beetles habit of swapping the
fore part of the body when plac-
ed upon its back or held between
the fingers. Wire worms are a.
mong the worst pests that at
tack corn, wheat and oats. Quail,
crows, whippoorwills. bobolinks.
woodpeckers, phoebes, orioles,
jays, and sparrows are all the
farmers allies in destroying
large numbers of the pests. IL
fact, the farmer cannot do much
to rid his fields of them except to
protect the birds that feed OH
them and to practice crop rota-
ton. Bulletin No. l56 of the u.
S. Department Of Agriculture
gives a description of the insects
and suggestions for their con-
troll.

not only the saving in power,

REPORT OF FIRST QUARTER

The close of June marked the first
quarter of the year since the work of
the county agriculturist was resum-
ed. Each week has brought a con-
tinually increasing number of de-
mands upon the office, which have
necessitated the constant revision OF
our plans and methods of procedure
As a more thorough acquaintance is
accomplished with the people of the
county, it becomes possible to plan
the work of the federation more
thoroughly than could be done at the
beginning, but even with this allie
waiting factor in view, it is realized,
however, that much care must be
exercised as the amount of work in
creases, in order to reach the whole
county efficiently and completely.
About one-half of last week was re-
CURED in the Office writing the semi
annual report to the u. S. Dept. of
Agriculture, it being necessary to
have this ready to mail June both.
Wednesday was spent with the Clyde
and Grant Farmers Club at the home
of M. ID. Baldwin in Port Huron
township. There was a good attend
ance at the meeting and number of
new acquaintance were made. On
Thursday occurred the meeting of
the Executive Committee of the Far
mers' Federation at office in Federal
building. The principal part of the
time was occupied with a discussion
of plans. work and business matters
of the Federation in general. Some
time was spent very profitably at
Memphis on Friday when acquaint-
ances were made with some Of the
best farmers of Riley, Berlin, EN-
NETT and other townships. These
townships rank with the best farm
ing regions of the county. The Far
mers' Federation is greatly encour-
aged over the interest that is being
shown in the work in these localities.
One of the best meetings that it has
been my privilege to attend since be-
ing in the county was held at Blaine
Saturday evening. About twenty of
the leading farmers of the surround
ing country gathered there and form
ed local branch of the St. Clair
County Farmers Federation. The
following officers were elected, Pres,
Albert Myron; Sec, II. G.. Burch,
Treas, John Mcdonald.
Forty-one letters were written, and
fourteen persons called at the Office
for information during the week.

Inform the Editor.

One of the most difficult of the
editors jobs is to get facts about
births, marriages and deaths.
People seem to think he ought to
know these things by intuition.
If not that, the birth, marriage
or death is of such Importance in
the immediate family that it is
presumed the editor will be in
formed by some wireless or just
grow into the information. Then,
when the paper comes out, and
no mention is made of the event,
the editor is blamed for not run
ming a good newspaper or not
getting all the news, Remem-
ber there are good many peo-
pie in this county. If the editor
knew each of them by name, be-
sides their family history and the
chief events in the lives of every
individual, he wouldn't be an ed
itor. He'd be a demi-god, rest
ing his feet on a cloud and sip
ping ambrosia instead of inhabit-
ing a broken-down Office chair
and wondering where the money
for the next white paper bill is
coming from. The life of the
average newspaper man is a gay
one. Gathering news is second
nature to him, like picking his
teeth with the office pen and cuss-
ing the office towel. Just the
same, there's a limit to his omnis-
cience. We're anxious for news
for the paper, and it won't put
you out much to drop by the Of
flee or telephone us whats hap
pening at your house. Then if
the item doesn't get in the paper,
you have a right to come down
and kick the stuffing out of the
cat. Otherwise, don't blame us.
