HOW PARSON Drown.
i.1LTt3 HIS FARMERS
Studied Up Lie History Of Hes
sian Fly ard Found Preven-
tive Measures Advocated by
United States Department
of Agriculture.

"Mary, I've simply got to find out
what the llcssian fly is and what 1t
does ana why all the farmers are CON
tlnually talking about 1t without seem
Ing to do anything else" said Parson
Brown to his wife the other evening
as he returned from a trip through the
countryside. Pm going to write to
the department Of a. riculture and the
state experiment station and see If l
cannot find out about the pest"
The letters were sent, ard a few
days later several bulletins were re-
ceived by the parson, who took them
into his study and read them thorough
ly several times. He learned the hab-
its Of the fly, that the eggs hatch in
the late fall and that the young must
have tender young wheat plants upon
which TO feed and deposit themselves
else they die. Finally In farmers bull
letin $40 Of the United States depart
ment Of agriculture he read the fol-
lowing statement:
"All practical measures to COM
bat the fly must necessarily be in
the nature Of preyentatiyes, look
Ing G TO the elimination of the
pest In the young plants in the
fail and (2) to the increasing of the
yigor of the young plants in order
to enable them to counteract the In
sect's efforts when present. Under
the first come late sowing. rotation
Of crops, burning Of the old stubble
and the destruction Of volunteer
wheat. Under the second should be
claSse1 the enrichment Of the soil,
its thorough preparation and Sc
lecting and properly sowing the
best seed"
In the same bulletin he found n dis
cuss,on of the value of some quick act
Ing fertilizer as a preventive measure.
The second statement was the follow
ing:
"The application broadcast of
some quick acting fertilizer con-
tanning a large percentage Of phos-
phate phosphorus) made as soon
ns general infestation is apparent
will cause the plants to tiller more
freely and give them sufficient
vigor to withstand the winter and
thus Increase the number of
healthy stems the following spring.
While 1t may seem far
fetched to bring forward as a pre-
yentive measure the enrichment Of
the soil, fertile soil will produce
plants that will withstand with lit
tie injury attacks that will prove
disastrous to plants growing on an
impoverished or thin soil.
II is also on the thin or impOver-
ished soils that the difficulty Of
sowing late enough to evade the
fall attack and at the same time
secure n growth sufficient to with
stand the winter is encountered,
and whatever can he done to obvi-
ate this difficulty viii constitute
preventive measure"
"Mary, I've not only found out about
the Hessian fly, but I've found out
how the government advises that the
pest be combated, and I'm going to
get a supply Of these bulletins and put
the proposition up to the farmers in
this community" said Parson Brown.
So during the 'neXt week he spent
much of his time talking Hessian fly
to the farmers, and the indications are
that his work is going to mean more
and better wheat per acre In that
county.

STANDARDIZING
MICHIGAN
FARM MARKETING

East Lansing, Mich, Aug 2S.-The
Michigan Standard Cooperative Assn,
as outlined by the Markets Department
of the Michigan Agricultural College,
has several distinctive features, First,
it has no capital stock; second, it is
composed only of those who make
their living by growing farm or horti-
cultural products; third, there are no
profits, the savings obtained because
of the economies of collective activity
are distributed among the members in
accordance with the amount of busi-
ness done by each member with the as
sociation; fourth, there is no proxy vot-
ing. 1t is an association of men and
not combination of capital. The as
sociation has capital, but there are no
shares, and the capital is only means
to an end. This capital comes from
membership fees and loans made by
the members to the organization. The
operation of the Assn does not result
in profits but in savings to the men,
bers because of the economies of large
scale transactions. Any surplus that
may accumulate because of exceptional
savings is distributed at the close of
the year among the members in accord
ance with the amount of business they
have done with the organization.
The standard association enjoys the
protection of the Clayton amendment
to the Sherman Antitrust law, because
it is constructed according to the sug-
gestions contained in the amendment.
The standard association is the first
step in Michigan toward a general pro-
motion of efficiency in the distribution
of farm products. The second step
will be the establishment of uniform
grades for quality, and the third step
will be the classifying and harmonizing
of the accounting systems, so that the
operations of the different associations
will be comparable one with another
The federal and state governments
have already done much toward stand
ardizing and accounting systems used
by the railroads, the banks and the in
surance companies and il is only rea-
sonable that il extend similar service
to the organizations marketing the
great food crops of the country.

Election returns, as a rule, are rather
slow and the returns for the August
Primaries this year seem exceptionally
so.
AT the present writing Albert Z.
Sleeper is the choice of Michigan for
Governor, with ninety per cent OF the
vote in. These latest figures give
Sleeper $1,000; Leland 45,370; with
Diekema's vote being less than 25,OOO
and Gardner's less than 10000.
In the senatorial contest the re-
nomination of Townsend is assured the
latest reports giving Townsend lead
over Hill of approximately 10000.
For Lieutenant Governor Dickinson
is nominated by safe majority over
Heinenan.
In the State Senatorial fight, the
contest is rather close but the indica-
tions are that Morford has been safely
renominated over Hinkley.
In the County, j. f. Chew will be the
Republican Candidate for Representa-
tive, having won a decisive victory
over the four other candidates.
For Register of Deeds Mcdonald is
leading Emery by approximately one
hundred votes.
For Road Commissioner House won
the nomination over Lorch and E. C..
Chew.
The balance of the ticket will remain
the same as heretofore, Judge Correll
and Sheriff Noyak having no opposi-
ton. Clerk Richard Lewis and Pros.
Atty Rollie l.. Lewis both won out
over their contestants. Treasurer
Weaver had no opposition. For
Coroners, Drs. Wilkinson of Charlie
voiX and Dicken of East Jordan will be
the candidates. Surveyor Robinson
and Drain Com'r Smith had no opposi-
ton.
