PROCLAMATION BY GOVERNOR
"Road Bee Day" June 29-3o-The
Great Work of 1914-15 Recounted.

acknowledgements Ferris has issued
proclamation naming June 20 and
80 as Road Bee Day" and gives some
very interesting figures on the work
and expenditures OF the past two years
for good roads:
"On June 4th and 9Th, 1914, and
June 10th and 18th, 1915, Road Bee
Days were observed in Michigan. Dur
ing the past year road building senti-
ment in Michigan has grown rapidly.
The Legislature of 1915 passed some
of the most progressive highway laws
ever enacted in Michigan. These we're
followed by the largest cash appro-
priations ever made for state road
purposes,-the appropriations for two
years, including the States portion OF
the automobile taxes, aggregating
three millions of dollars. Already un.
der the Assessment District Road
Act petitions have been filed with the
various County Road Commissioners
and the State Highway Commissioner.

WORKING FOR The FARMER
The State College Showing How to
Do Business Properly and
Succeed.

East Lansing-That group OF far
mers can organize to sell their pro-
ducts without violating the Sherman
Antitrust law, was asserted by Prof.
Canoe of the Massachusetts Agricul-
tural College In his lectures on agri-
cultural cooperation at the NJ. A. G.
"This is made possible" said Profess
sor Canoe, "by passing of the Clay.
ton bill which was drawn up especial
ly for this purpose The law provides
that II the cooperative organization
does not issue stock then it cannot be
said to exist in restraint of trade"
Prof. Canoes lectures are part Of
series to be given during the entire
summer school on agricultural bust
ness. III ten lectures Prof. Canoe will
cover the subject Of cooperative or
CARNATIONS. In his early lectures he
pointed out that farming is small in.
dustry. taking an individual farm as a
unit, and therefore a very efficient
productive unit but, because of its
smallness, it is a very inefficient bar
gaining unit. Hence farmers must
pool their bargaining power or in 9th
er words, cooperate. I'm a survey OF
the farming of the entire world" says
Prof. Canoe, you will find very few
organizations Of farmers for produc-
ing, but very many for bargaining pur-
poses"
The cooperation expert took rap
at the capitalistic way Of looking at
dividends by saying that the use Of
money should be paid for at market
rates that dividends or profits above
the market rate meant that somebody
was being cheated out of his just
earnings.
Specialization and cooperation are
the two watchwords of scientific agri-
culture" declared Prof. Canoe. Some
of the essentials in successful far
mers' cooperative organizations are
~ the membership must be limited
TO those interested in the business;
co the organization must start with
but one purpose-a larger field may
be taken up later; CD must organize
where there is sufficient business and
in a limited area; ca organize where
there is a geographic specialization
of products; (5) organization must do
a cash business or an intelligent credit
business" In explanation of this last
point Prof. Canoe declared that a
months time to pay is not cash way
of doing business. you charge q
man for the use Of your money for
month and he'll begin to prick up his
ears and listen about cash. This
same thing will apply in the local
grocery and meat business today.
Those who carry accounts should be
expected to pay interest"

If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all doubt you
But make allowance for their doubling too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;
If you can dream-and not make dreams your MASTER
If you think-and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same:
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make trap for FOOLS
Or watch the things you gave your life to broken,
And stoop and build 'em up with out tools;
If you make heap of all your winnings
And risk it turn of pitch and toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings,
And never breathe word about your loss.
If you force your heart and nerve and sinew
To your turn long after they gone
And SO hold when there is nothing in you
Except the Will which says to them: ''Hold on
If you talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with kings-nor lose the common touch
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
If all men count with you, but too much!

I'd KIPLING
1 In bulletin just issued, the
State College at Pullman has the
! following to say about winter in
jury to fruit trees:
! The extremely cold weather of
the early part of this month will
probably do harm to many tender
fruit trees and shrubs. The most
severe cases will result in killing
back the young wood and splitting
the trunks and large branches of
the trees; the young branches
turn brown or black throughout
and usually wither slightly. In
the larger branches and trunk the
inner bark. or the camblum layer
and part of the sap wood may turn
brown, the bark often splits in
perpendicular line and curls back.
The wood of the trunk may split in
extreme cases. The bark is some
times killed entirely around the
trunk at or just above the surface
OF the soil or snow.
In handling such injuries, Prof
essor O. M. Morris, Hortlcultural-
list of the Washington Agricultural
Experiment Station at Pullman,
advises that the winter killed twigs
should be cut back to sound or live
wood. Sometimes the sap wood is
J injured and turns brown but is not
) killed. If cutting away all such
injured wood necessitates extremely
severe pruning it should not be
done. However, all wood on which
the bark is killed should be pruned
away. The split bark on the trunk
and larger limbs should be pre-
vented from curling back by band
ing or by the use of tacks and
small nails. If the bark is killed
, back from the edge of the split an
inch or more on each side this
should be covered by bridge graft
ing.
The winter injury that is most
liable to kill the tree is that form.
in which the trunk is girdled. This
can be bridge grated and the tree
saved with only slightly checking
it's growth.
The pruning away of injured
parts should be done as soon as
possible after the harm has been
done. The bridge grating should
be done just before rapid growth
starts in the spring. This process
is described in Popular Bulletin
No. 67 Of the Experiment Station.
Although the price of lumber
has gone up from one to four
dollars per thousand within the
past week, H. w. Lemcke states
the same low big-mill prices will
prevail on all building material
furnished by the Ready-built
House company Of Portland, Ore
gon.
1t is this company's large pro-
duction that enables them to op-
crate on reasonable profit basis

Renew Your
Alfalfa Fields

Ranchers in the valley who are
good observers contend that alfalfa
fields here produce their greatest
tonnage in the second and third
year after planting; that after
the third year the yield becomes
less and less until it is believed
that it can not be proftably contin-
ued after the eighth year.
So far as the Spokesman has
been able to learn, no fertilizer
has been placed on any of the al
falfa fields here beyond the spread
ing of manure in a few places.
There is probably no land on earth
that could go on year after year
producing heavy crops like alfalfa,
without becoming impoverished,
unless occasionally renewed.
E. w. Gillet, former resident
of White Bluffs, now Of Tumalo,
Oregon, who is here on a visit, told
the Spokesman this week that the
soil and climatic conditions in this
valley are very similar to those Of
Central Oregon, and that they re-
new their alfalfa and clover fields
there every spring by an applica-
tion of 'land plaster" a mixture
of gypsum and iron sulphate. The
cost is about rs cents per acre, and
results in considerable increase in
tonnage. In fact, they do not
think they can grow hay profitably
there unless they fertilize with
"lands plaster
Experiments conducted at the
Southern Oregon experiment sta
ton" says F. C. Reimer, superin-
tendent, indicate that it is prob
ably the sulphur in the superphos-
phate which is responsible for the
large increase in yield where this
material is used. If future results
prove this conclusively, then it will
be possible to reduce the cost Of
our alfalfa fertilizer bill just Is
per cent; for sulphur in the form
of crude ground sulphur may be
purchased for one-fourth what it
would cost in the form Of super
phosphate. This explains satisfac-
torily for the first time the valu-
able results which have been OBJ
tanned from the use Of gypsum and
iron sulphate as fertilizers on al
falfa and clovers. These materials
are rich in sulphur.
County Agriculturalist Lampson
has no doubt given this subject

the matter with him should be
