Food Conservation Conference.

On Monday night, August 18th,
meeting was called by Governor Ora
ham to discuss the conservation of
food. Commissioner Brigham, Fra
ger Metzger, Ex-Governor Gates, Di-
rector Bradlee and several others be-
sides the county agents of the various
counties of the state were. present.
Reports were given by the various
persons present of the condition of
the potato crop and means of storage
and transportation facilities. The
consensus of opinion seemed to be
that the potato production had been
overestimated and that with the
large amount of blight reported In var
ious sections, the price another spring
would be much higher than was origi-
nally anticipated.
The meeting was presided over by
James Hardness of Springfield, who
was recently appointed food control
Ter for this state by Mr.. Hoover. At
the close of the meeting Mr.. Hardness
in a few brief remarks, discussed the
seriousness of the present situation
and said that at recent conference
which he attended at Washington,
Mr.. Hoover stated that as far as
could be seen, Germany had food,
munitions and all kinds of supplies to
last her an indefinite period. In his
estimation we are embarked on a
long hard war with the quantities of
munitions and food supplied to the
armies deciding the final outcome.
The farmers are supplying the food
and at the same time sending their
sons to the front. We cannot figure
in dollars and cents at time like
this. Many men in the Plattsburg
training camp have given up good po-
sitions and many may go to the war
front of Europe-never to return.
Compared with what these men and
thousands of others like them are
giving, is it too much to ask the farm
er TO increase his business to it's max
imum efficiency and production in or
der to supply the boys in the trenches
and insure an early victory?

On Wednesday, August ed, about
20 farmers with their families went
on an auto tour to East Berkshire and
Richmond. The milk plant at East
Berkshire is in the process of con-
struction and several valuable ideas
were brought out by Prof. G. F. Story
of the state university and Mogens
Tolstrup, from the Office of the COM
missioner of agriculture, who guided
the party about the plant.
Secretary Dick Paul of this cream
ery company, told the visiting farm
ers that if this cooperative creamery
had been running during May and
June and paying prices as high as the
Richmond cooperative creamery, he
would have received $500 more for
the dairy products from his herd
alone. Figuring for a years time
and comparing the prices he received
with those paid by the Lamoille Val
ley Cooperative creamery he est1mat-
ed he would have received 5000 more,
had the plant been in operation dur
ing the past year and paying the
prices of the creamery mentioned.
A picnic dinner was eaten here, al
ter which the party went on to Rlch-
mond
This plant was built far too small
at the outset to handle the business
and several additions have been made.
Professor Story and Mr.. Tolstrup
pointed out the good points and also
the weak points of the plant In order
that the same mistakes would not be
made when work was begun on the
Newport plant. This creamery has
been very successful, clearing over
$4,000 during the past year besides
paying prices far above those OF the
local condensery to the farmers and
making the additions already referred
to. Equipment for making
cheese and butter have been installed,
even though the bulk of the business
at the plant is shipping whole milk
and sweet cream. Altogether 1t was
a very instructive and entertaining
trip. An opportunity was afforded TO
visit plant in process of construc-
ton as well as one that has already
been running for more than year
and has been very successful.
With the location and the territory
from which to draw dairy products,
there is no reason why an equally
successful plant should not be IN OPP
Grafton at Newport year from now.
Many farmers are complaining be-
cause there is little or no profit in
dairying with milk at $2.25 and 70
cents for collecting. The real neces-
sity fer better prices has brought
many live cooperative organization
into existence. The dairy company at
Newport was organized because of
this very fact. With the publication
of the August and September prices
for milk, it became more evident than
ever before that something must be
done. Within short time an active
canvass will be made by members of
the dairy company to secure more
shareholders and it is important that
every farmer in the vicinity of New
port should join and aid the organiza-
ton. The bigger the business, the
more successful will be the plant, and

The county Organization.

AS the work of the various farm
bureau organizations grows, the
county agents realize more and more
that their work must necessarily be
with groups of farmers rather than
with individuals. The Orleans Coun-
ty Agricultural association can never
attain its highest state of efficiency
until it has perfected it's organization
SO that each community is working on
its particular problems, with each
member as well as the committeeman
assisting the county agent to solve
those problems. 1t is only by gener-
al cooperation that these problems
can be worked out. One of the first
essentials for a strong county organ
ization is big membership and until
Jan. 1st, each town committeeman
as well as each member of the associ-
alton will make an effort to secure as
many new members as possible to
complete the 1000 members for the
coming year. Let everyone get be-
hind and push.
Meetings of the committeeman in
each town are soon to be called to
make out program of work for the
coming year. IF you have some
ideas as to what this work should be
talk it over with the committeeman
or the county agent. Perhaps your
community needs to run some corn
variety tests another year to deter
mine what kind of corn is best adapt
ed to that section; perhaps a seed po-
tato growers association ought to be
formed; perhaps campaign for bet
ter livestock should be inaugurated.
Each community has it's own prob
lens TO solve and with lot of assis-
lance from each member, the county
agent can do much TO help better the
agriculture of the county; with little
or no assistance, little can be accom-
plished.
It is not to be inferred from what
has been said, that the county agent
does not plan TO talk over problems
with farmers individually. From
the very nature OF the work, individ-
ual farmers must be worked with to
large extent and any farmer should
feel at liberty at any time to ask the
agent for assistance or information
But too many men still have the idea
that the county agent should call on
them once in SO often, no matter
whether they have anything special to
talk over or not. If this method were
used with the 1000 farmers in this
county, the agent would not have time
to complete one round before start
ing on another. H You wish def
mite assistance or information, call
the county agent, but don't expect
him to stop very many times year
just TO pass the time of dayl.

With prices soaring, farmers must
expect to pay higher prices for seed
another year but the man who viii be
two moves ahead in the game is the
one who plans to save what seed he
can this year for next years planting
and who saves the best for seed.
IF blight becomes general, potatoes
will be high another year as usual
and it will be doubly important that
careful seed selection be mate in the
field this fall AT digging time, pick
out the best hills of potatoes-nOt
hills with a few big ones-but hills
containing the largest number Of
market-size potatoes. Save these and
plant them another year and a much
better crop is insured. Selecting for
better production in crops is on exact
" the same principle as selecting for
better production in livestock Why
practice one and not the other?
In selecting field corn for seed, go
through the field and pick off ears
from the stalks that are the best
matured. Note that the plant itself
is vigorous and yields good amount
of fodder. lie two well-matured ears
of good size and quality are found on
q vigorous stalk, SO much the better.
In selecting seed remember the fol-
lowing points:
/. Make field selection rather than
bin or crib selection.
2. Select seed from vigorous
plants.
8. Aim to obtain uniform seed.
a. Watch for disease of any kind
5. Select the best market type Of
seed.

TRY IT! SUBSTITUTE
FOR NASTY CALOMEL
Starts your liver without making
you sick and can not
salivate.

Every druggist in town-your
druggist and eyerybody's druggist
has noticed a great falling-off in the
sale of calomel. They all give the
same reason. Dodson's Liver Tone
is taking its place.
"Calomel is dangerous and people
know it, while Dodson's Liver Tone
is perfectly safe and gives better re-
Suits" said a prominent local drug
gist. Dodson's Liver Tone is per-
sonally guaranteed by every drug
gist who sells it. A large bottle
costs so cents, and if it fails to give
easy relief in every case of liver
sluggishness and constipation, YOU
have only to ask for your money
back.
Dodson's Liver Tone is pleasant
tasting, purely vegetable remedy,
harmless to both children and adults.
Take a. spoonful at night and wake
up feeling fine; no biliousness, sick
headache, acid stomach or consti-
pated bowels. 1t doesn't gripe or
cause inconvenience all the next
day like violent calomel.
