A. RiCULTURAL COLUMN.

Farmers should look to their seed
grains. If they have been stored over
winter they should be cleaned and
tested The fellow who CUES ses that
his seed is good is very poor business
man 1t must be admitted that the
loss from poor seed if figured in dollars
and cents would pay all the expenses
of government and provide ample
money for the army and navy. Now
is the time and it is easy to send a
small sample to the County Agent. He
will test it free. Then if the seed is
poor get some better. Also the county
agent can provide seed of the Wis. Is
yellow dent corn which ripened last
year in this county. Send for your
supply at once.
Treat your seed potatoes. If you
order your formaldehyde in larger a.
mounts you can get it cheaper. Ask
the County Agent for prices. Use of
corrosive sublimate is best but it is
dangerous. Ask for help.
Test every bit of seed you intend to
SOW. Plant good seed. Our oat crop
is usually much less on account of
poor seed. Smut is no joke. 1t can be
entirely controlled. Treat with formal
dehyde.
Prepare for spraying potato bugs.
Bordeaux zine is the cheapest and most
effective material to use. Arrange
ments will be made by the County A
gent to get this in quantity at low
cost. Get your orders in.
Use your dynamite carefully. lamp
well and you will get more stumps
out with less money. Less roise and
more push.
Prepare your ground well but do not
put in too small pieces of seed potato
even if the price is high. 1t will pay
well to DO good work this year.
Don't try freak crops this year The
country needs all the staple crops it
canget. Prices are bound to be good.
Cut out waste. Get few small pigs.
The County Agent is going TO bring in
a bunch. Put in your orders.
Don't fail TO have good garden
with vegetables for every day in the
year. Store them in the. cellar, pickle
them, dry them, can them, but be

GERM DISEASE sPREADERs

The child apparently merely " out OF
sorts" NAV be Indirectly responsible
for causing serious illness and an
occasional death among his playmates
and schoolmates. This constitutes one
of the greatest discoveries that has
been made concerning the spread and
hence the prevention of contagious
diseases. The modern health officer
fears as much as anything else thedan-
per that lies in the mild cases.
These are the cases that do not
attract any particular attention on the
mart of the mother or the teacher. The
child may be noticed to be not quite up
to normal but still not sick enough to
be kept out of or sent home from school
And yet the mild Or unsupported case
is Just az capable of causing terrible
form of the disease as is the terrible
form to repeat itself.
From the pnblic point of view the
child with mild case is much more
dangerous because he can run about
spread his germs among all his play
mates The severe case is kept in bed
and consequently does not have the con-
facts which permit SO easy spread OF
disease Another comparatively recent
discovery that everybody should know
about is that the contagious diseases
of childhood are dangerous from the
beginning of attack.
Themodern method of handling cpl
denies, therefore, is to secure the SER
vices of competent inspectors whose
business it is to see early and to get
the full significance of, the little signs
that are likely to pass unnotlced on the
part Of less experienced or otherwise
preoccupied people Specially trained
public health nurses are commonly Sc
cured for this service because, at the
prevailing rates of compensation, a
higher grade of service can thus he Sc
cured per dollar cost than can be from
we'll trained and competent physicians.
When the cases have been weeded
out and quarantined, and the suspects
are pit under observation till they
are proved to be innocent" the cpl
demic promptly ceases. The measures
which control epidemics will prevent
them Eventually, we will prevent;

MIR. Town ''Lotter" Help Supply
Your Own Table.

Your country calls you to help. We
face very serious food shortage. In
the emergency, your garden space,
your muscles and your spare time must
be enlisted.
President Wilson says: Everyone
who cultivates a garden helps and
helps greatly to solve the problem of
feeding the nation!"
Remember somebody has to raise
rything you eat. A garden in your
back yard, though small, will surprise
you by the amount of vegetables it will
produce A lot of patriotic folks are
going to have garden this summer
Why don't you have one, too? There's
plenty of time if you will start right
now. Let the boys and girls have a
hand in it.
