HIGH GRADE BUTTER PRICES
Producers Of First-CIass Articles Are
Realizing Nice Margin Over
Inferior Product.

First-grade butter Is still In big de-
mand in this country and the pro-
ducers of good butter are realizing a
nice margin In price over the producers
of second grade butter. Because Of
foreign competition with our second
grade butter the difference in price be-
tween first-grade and second-grade Is
wide. Foreign competition has not
materially increased the supply Of
first grades, while the supply of sec
onds has been increased tremendously.

MEANS OF FIGHTING BORERS
Dig Away Soil Around Base of Tree
and Destroy Larva-Mounding
Is Also Recommended.

(From the Missouri Agricultural Expert
ment Station.)
The methods Of fighting both Round
and Flat-Headed Borers are much
the same. The most important means
of combating the borer is by going
through the orchard in late August or
early October and digging away the
soil around the base of the tree and
finding the larva burrows and pushing
n sharpened wire in them until the
larva Is reached and killed. If the
worm does not make paths straight

REPAIRS FOR WOODEN SIL0S
Huge Receptacle Is Liable to Be

The wooden silo in summer is liable
to be wrecked or wrenched by the
wind, especially If it has no roof.
Spend little time in tightening the
hoops after the slaves become dry.
AS precaution against high winds
run two or three stays of heavy wire
to some permanent objects-a tree,
barn or heavy post set firmly in the
ground. Give 1t coat of paint on the
outside and creosote on the inside.

Desperate Polit;es

1t would seem from the stories

Certainly no such means would
be resorted to except in extreme

ing scattered regarding the ex-
orbitant amount of property
owned by the Republican candi-
date are too absurd to be believed
by anyone. The statement that

Rood's reports as clerk of the

Cavenderstates that he has never
written on line of the reports Of
