Timely Suggestions
By the Farm Agent

called TO several young orchards
planted Il year or two ago. where the
farmer had bought the nursery stock
OF an agent, who had sold the trees
to him at fifty cents each for the mp
pie trees and tWenty-eight cents for
the peach trees. the agent agreeing
10 prune the trees for three years.
The trees were OF very inferior kind
and when planted the tree agent did
not return the next year TO prune
them. He also instructed the farm
CT to paint several rocks with coal
tar telling him that this would keep
the borers away One farmer went
TO considerable expense TO do this
only TO ind next year thathis trees
were being killed by borers.
The United States government has
had men working for years trying to
find out some preventative for the
peach and apple bOrer and up to this
time has been unsuccessful. When
any agent says he has preventative
for the apple borer the farmer would
better leave him and his trees both
alone. In the first place the farmers
should buy their nursery stock as
near home as possible and there is
no reason why lie should pay over
ten 10 twelve and one-halS cents for
the best apple trees and six to eight
cents for the best peach trees. A
yearling apple trees is always pref
cradle 10 plant Most Of our large
reputable nursery companies will not
sell poor stock containing their brand.
They have from thirty to nifty per
cent of the stock that is not mer-
charitable. In New York there are
scores OF so-called nursery compan-
les which do not own foot of land
nor grow a tree. They buy this re-
jected stock at from two to five cents
a tree in job lots and then send their
agents out 10 sell the trees. Farmers
Of West Virginia have thrown thou
sands of dollars away by purchasing
such stun. The trees often turn out
not to be true to name and the farm
err after eight or ten years of Guilt
walton. finds that he has lot of un-
profitable fruit trees.
The county agent will be glad to
assist farmers along this line.

Dandruff Surely
Destroys The Hair

Girls-if you want plenty of thick,
beautiful. glossy. silky hair, do by all
means get rid OF dandruff, for il will
starve your hair and ruin it if you don't.
1t doesn't do much good to try to
brush or wash it out. The only sure
way to get rid Of dandruf is to dissolve
it, then you destroy it entirely. To do
this, get about four OUNCES OF ordinary
liquid arvon; apply it ut night when re-
firing; use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger tips.
By morning, most If not all, of your
dandTuf will be gone, and three or four
more applications will completely dis
solve and entirely destroy every single
sign and trace of Il.
You will find, too, that all itching and
digging Of the scalp will stop, and your
hair will look and feel hundred times
better. YOU can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. 1t is inexpensive and four
ounces is all you will need, no matter
how much dandruff you have. This
simple remedy never fails.

My Dear Corn Club Member:

tell you tonight and that is why l am
writing TO you now.
You know we are to have n corn
show in the district next fell before
we take our corn to the county show
at Clnrksburg. Some of the men of
the district heard about what we are
planning to do and said they wanted
TO offer prizes to the boys who did
the best work in the district. One
of them said lie wanted to give an
Elgin watch to the winner Of tho
acre cOntect and another said he
wanted to give a fourteen-tooth corn
cultlvator for the second prize. Then
there were others TO give smaller
prizes. There will be some nice priz-
es In the 600 hill contest and In the
pig contest. There Is not large num-
her OF boys enrolled in the district.
so each of you will have good
chance Mt winning prize hope
that every one Of you will stick and
will try to do just little bit better
with his acre than the other fellow
Is going to be able 10 do.
And there is something else that
/ want to tell you. went To meet
ing of the district leaders at Clarks-
burg the other day and our district
had more members than any other
district in the county. Indeed. we
had more than third OF all that had
enrolled in tho county. When the
time comes for the county show. we
IRE going to make some OF the older
club members hustle for the first prize
in the county.

yet been sent out from Morgantown.

10 begin. thinking about your work.
The ground ought to be pluwed as
soon as possible. especially If 1t was
not plowed last fall Talk with your
father and find out just where he Is
going 10 let you get at least ten loads
of manure for your acre. BE sure
that you have good seed corn and
that II is well tested to see II 1t will
come up. If you do not know where

AL effort Will be made to have a

The county fair Is not to be held un-

this will give the boys chance to
exhibit corn at the fair. The county
corn show will be held after the dis
trlct shows and the following will be
the state show at Morgantown. Ev-
cry boy, therefore, has Il chance for
winning four prizes. This ought to

LABOR WIDE AWAKE AND. ON
JOB FOR WILSON
Pres. John Fitzpatrick of Chicago
Federation of Labor got this tele-
gram from Sec'y E. ]. Stack of cen
trail labor council, Portland, Ore,
yesterday:
Newspapers here published reso-
Iutions passed by Chicago Building
Trades council condemning Pres.
Wilson. Wire US position of Chicago
labor movement. Give details, if pos
sible." ....
Sec'y Ed Nockels joined with Fitz-
patrick in sending the following tele-
gram in reply:
1--WE have been officially notified
by the president and secretary of the
Chicago Building Trades council that
no kind of a resolution was passed
condemning President Wilson, and
that the alleged resolution published
is an absolute fake and falsehood.
The position of the Chicago labor
movement is best explained in tele-
gram sent President Wilson, which
was as follows:
The Chicago Federation of La
Dor, representing 100000 organized
men and women, by a unanimous
vote, heartily endorse your attitude
in the enactment of the S-hour day
law. We congratulate you upon your
splendid record of achievements in
the cause of humanity. Your admin
istration has really proved to be
democracy against autocracy. You
are the first president of the United !
States who truly understands the !
cause of the common people and had |
the fortitude and courage to place |
human beings above property"

surrender of the government to the

the speech Of Lee Monday night will

Galesburg, ILL.,, Oct %. - The

Illinois today for the big Illinois drive.
The campaigners had not entirely
recovered their composure from the
exciting Kansas City stop yesterday,
when heckleTs attempted to break up
their parade. When they went to the
Auditorium for the night meeting the
building reeked with the nauseating
odor of 0x-gal, which had been
spread in various parts Of the hall.
Many women were forced to leave
after contracting violent headaches
from the fumes.
The special made its first Illinois
stop at Quincy, where a large crowd
of women met the train.
