AND
PLANT NOW

Get the ground ready, should be the
slogan for I'll who till the ground.
DO not wait for the other fellow to
raise the bumper crop we all are hop
ing for and which the world needs. If
you do wait children will cry for food
and hunger will be a common bedfel-
low. The seriousness of the labor
situation is dawning upon the minds
Of city men and women and a deter
mined effort is being made to get boys
and girls, men and women, to work
upon farms. To mobilize forces takes
time-and planting cannot wait. h
must be done now. If we should put
a small army at work on the farm
three or four weeks from now it would
do little good unless they have some-
thing to hoe and cultivate. We must
nave all the corn and potatoes and
beans that we can possibly raise. With
these we could stand quite a siege of
Aou HhoA e"6S diOHS OlueT lines. II
you have planned to plow only three
fourths of your field turn the furrow
straight to the end Of the field and
get the seed in. Send out call for
help to cultivate. 1t is a national SER
vice to raise food this year.
PROFESSOR j. Russell Smith, of the
University of Pennsylvania, is organ
lzing bodies of college students to
help SOW and cultivate fields. Far
mers who agree to till twelve acres
more than they had planned will have
student assigned for each twelve
acres. Get busy--PLOW AND PLANT

new BOARD
OF MANAGERS

A new board of managers for the
New Jersey Agricultural Experiment
Station was appointed in March, fol-
lowing the change in legislation which
provides that the Board of Managers
shall consist of 81 members, one from
each county. The occasion for this
change was that under the old system,
which provided for the appointment
of two members from each congress
sional district, the body had constant
ly grown with the increase in the
number of congressional districts un-
til it became somewhat unwieldly. Un-
der the new provision the size of the
board will be stable. The personnel
OF the new board is as follows: VIM.

TOMATOES
GO TO $3.50
All Canning Concerns to
Pay This Price.
BIG ACREAGE.
The Highest Prices Ever Offered
Ia Contracts Now Being
Made.

The packers and shippers of this
section are now contracting with the
farmers for tomatoes for $3.50 a ton.
This is the highest contract ever
made with growers in this section
and will meet the rising expenses of
the producer.
Early the packers determined upon
$12 for contract tomatoes and a con-
siderable acreage was signed for, al
though the producers were not eager
to contract for their entire supply.
A week ago the Campbell Soup Co.
came into the market with an increase
making the contract price $3.50.
Now the contracts have been in.
creased to $3.50 and this price will
govern not only contracts to be made
but contracts that have been signed
for the lower figure.
1t is understood that Salem Count,
contracts are also for $780,
This will develop South jersey into
cne Of the greatest tomato CROWNS
sections in the country.

field in the latitude of New Brunswick
about July first. Such varieties as
Succession and All Season need not
be set until about July 10. The writer
states that more people should be-
come acquainted with the most deli
cate favored of all cabbages; it is the
Savoy or curly cabbage. 1t grows
very quickly, keeps spfendidly and is
of very fine quality. Another advan-
tage of Savoy cabbage is that it need
not be set out until the last part of
July because it grows very quickly.
About the middle of November the
plants may be pulled and stood up
side down close together on a sod. If
these are covered with a layer of hay
six inches thick they will keep spIen-
didly until the holidays. If the layer
OF hay is increased at that time the
Savoy cabbage will keep until spring.
EARLY Beets
The richer the soil, the quicker
beets will grow. Nitrate of soda will
force them very fast. Soon the mar
ket gardeners will be selling beet
greens by the truck loads. The con-
sumer may buy half peck of these
greens, cut off the tops and eat them,
The roots may be set out in the home
garden with stems on them a half
inch long. The tiny beets are set four
inches apart in rows IA inches wide.
These little roots will quickly start
to grow and develop full sized beets
just as onion sets produce onions.

Gentlemen:
The Jewish Agricultural and Indus
trial Aid Society, which directs the
agricultural. activities of the Baron
de Hirsch fund, has offered to the
people of the city of Bridgeton the
free use until the harvest of the next
crop. farm of As acres, three miles
from Elmer. This farm is equipped
with dwelling house, barn and
putbuildings. and it is left to the
authorities of Bridgeton to decide up
on the cultivation to which the land
is to be put.
This action on the part of the So
ciety is taken in obedience to the ad-
vice OF President Wilson to speak,
act, and serve together" in this crisis.

CORN VS..
POTATOES

The high price of potatoes has in
ftuenced many farmers to plant this
crop whose land and locality ,ard
not especially adapted to potatoes and
whose crop will come on the market
after that of large producing sections.
The present high price of potatoes
is due primarily to last years poor
crop and consequent short supply.
with the influence of the war on all
food prices decidedly secondary. With
normal crop the price of potatoes
VIII approach normal more rapidly
than that of corn, which will be much
more extensively exported, since a
bushel of corn or grain has four times
the food value of bushel of potatoes.
The acreage of corn can and should
be greatly increased. The supply of
seed is ample and costs per acre only
about one-tenth that of potatoes. Corn
requires only one-half the fertilizer
land cheaper grade will suffice) and
not over one-nalf the labor necessary
for potatoes. Besides, corn is practi-
cally free from insect enemies and
diseases which are serious drawbacks
to potato growing. Planting and har-
vesting corn may be delayed consid-
erably without harm. Corn is better
adapted than potatoes to old sods and
rough land not in good condition, es-
pecially where the soil is heavy.
The extension specialist in agrono-
my of the New Jersey State Agricul-
tural College believes that the above
facts are good arguments for increas-
ing the acreage Of a cheap and safe
crop. rather than gambling on one
which is risky and expensive.

JR. 0. j. A. N.
may BUILD HOME

The members of the Junior Order
of American Mechanics throughout
the state will take vote on the first
. meeting night of this month as tc
whether the order shall erect and
maintain home for aged and infirm
members and their wives and for or
phans. The Odd Fellows and Masons
in the state maintain homes for aged
members and their wives, and Lomes
being kept up by small yearly per
capita assessments.
The Jr. o. U. A. M. is a much young
er society than the Odd Fellows or
Masons. 1t has few old or infirm
members, but in time it will have
many members who will have reached
three-score years and ten. In fact, at
present there is no need for the soci-
ETY. to have home for the aged. The
board of managers on home for aged
members, in it's recent report, states
it is now time to look into the future
and to prepare for caring for men,
bers when they are overtaken by old
age or sickness. The Masons or Odd
! Fellows make no provisions for the
care of sick members, though the for
mer organization has under consider
alton the building of a hospital in
Burlington county for caring for sick
and disabled members and their
wives.
The Jr. o. U. A M. will, if the or
ganization votes in favor of the home
for the aged, assess every member of
the order $40, to be paid in ten years
at the rate of 25 cents every three
months, the sum to be paid out of the
treasury of each council and charged
to each member. 1t would take there
fore, ten years to get all the money
assessed, but enough could be had in
two or three years to purchase the
property and erect suitable building,
and the balance of the money could
then be used to furnish and maintain
the home. There is considerable in
terest manifested in the order over
the proposed plan, and the voting in
May is looked forward to hopefully
by those who believe the order should
be prepared in time to meet the re-
quirements of members who are now
approaching old age and who may
need care free of cost.
