Many farmers will not be able to

of the lack of horses or other power.
Everv tractor in this county should

remains an acre unplowed. There is
still time to put in barley, and corn
and potatoes, all three of which are
worth almost their weight in gold We
appeal to every tractor owner to offer
its services to any man who will not

CORN ROOT WORM
200, 1000, 900 Blu. Lost to Corn Crop
Annually by This Pest.

National Crop improvement Service.
The damage done to corn in the
corn belt is estimated to be 100000
900 bushels annually. In our mad
scramble to get corn into the ground
this year, we do not want to overlook
this tremendous waste. Next to poor
seed corn, the corn root worm is the
greatest source of loss to corn. The
remedy is the rotation of crops. Never
grow more than two crops of corn con-
secutively on the same ground. If you
had corn root worm bad last year and
It is too late to put in anything else,
you had better change to barley. Your
scotsman can still furnish you with
some excellent seed barley. If you do
put in corn on that land, be careful to
give your land more than usual
preparation. The time is late and we
will have to bend every energy to
plant our corn crop.

Portland, Me. July 1.-Proposals
from Maine shipbuilders that call for
the construction of 10 hulls for the
steamships of the United States Gov
errments emergency fleet have been
approved by the Maine Shipbuilding
Committee of which Hon. William T.

ton to the four ships for which a con-
tract has already been awarded to the
Portland Ship Ceiling Company which
IS now establishing a modern ship
building plant on the site of the old
Russell yards at East Deering.
If the 10 proposals approved by the
Maine Shipping Board today are &C
cepted by the United States Shipping
Board officials in Washington these
hulls will be built at Bath. Thomaston

Frankfort at a cost of $500, 000 each.
Among the more prominent ship
builders who have submitted proposals
at this price are Percy and Small and
the Kelley-Spear Company of Bath
and George Gilchrist of Thomaston.
The committee has also received a
proposal from another Maine corpor
alton for two hulls at a cost of 100000
each and these proposals will be con-
sidered at the next meeting of the
committee.
1t is now certain that Maine ship
builders will take a prominent part in
constructing ships for the emergency
fleet with which the United States
hopes to defeat Germany's unrestricted
submarine warfare. Shipyards which
have been idle for years, having taken
