potatoes in the unsprayed fields due
both to premature death of the plants
and rotting of the tubers. Let us this
year insure our crop and, to use an
old phrase, "lock the barn before the
horse is stolen"
A convenient plan for making the
mixture is to dissolve so pounds of
copper sulphate in barrel of so gal
Ions of water. The substance will
dissolve quickly If suspended in a
sack in the water but dissolves slowly
when dumped into the bottom of the
barrel and the water poured on top.
In another barrel slack so pounds of
lime and then add 80 gallons of wa
ter. ALWAYS KEEP THESE TWO
MIXTURES SEPARATE UNLESS
THEY ARE TO BE APPLIED I'M
MEDIATELY TO THE POTATOES.
In making the mixture stir up each
barrel and then take 3 gallons of the
lime solution and 3 gallons of the
copper sulphate solution and A gal
Ions of water IF a 50-gallon sprayer
is used put in it the 8 gallons of each
solution and fill the barrel with wa
ter. Add to this Bordeaux mixture
two pounds of arsenate of lead or one
pound of Paris Green to kill the bugs.

The total registration in Vermont
of men of the draft age on June 5
was 1858 and telegraphed by Gov.
Graham to the war department at
Washington. The number of men
who claimed no exemptions from
military service, that is, who had no
dependents and whose physical disa-
bility was not indicated, totalled TO-
813. The returns also showed there
were 3,487 aliens and Y alien enc

only country with which Vermont is
at war at the present time and this
number represents the Germans who

Notes

A large number of meetings have
been held during the month with ex-
cellent results. The attendance and
interest have been exceptionally good.
The total attendance at the q meet
ings held was $50, giving an average
of AZ per meeting.
The 1910 census shows some rather
startling facts in regard to the grain
situation. During the ten years pre-
vious to the census there was de-
crease in acreage of all grains grown
in the state of Vermont of $4,000
acres, $4,000 acres of this decrease
being corn. Figuring that an average
acre of land will produce one ton of
grain means that $4,000 tons of grain
must be shipped in from the West if
| the farmers are to feed the usual
amount of grain. That means the use
of at least 1000 freight cars per year
to haul into the state enough grain
to keep even with what was raised
previous to the year 1900. This
same ten-year period saw an increase
IN the acreage of hay and forage
crops of approximately $4,000 acres.
Within very short time now it
will be time to spray oats to kill the
kale. Many of the farmers will be
| unable to do this because they can
not obtain the use of a power spray
er. Every community should have a
power sprayer and one of the things
to work for another year should be a
i power sprayer for every communi-
ty. 1t is possible with this one piece
of machinery to spray oats and corn
for kale, spray potatoes, spray or
| chards, WhiteWash the barn, etc. A
good type of machine can be bought
for less than 500 which means a
very small investment when several
farmers buy one together. To spray
oats successfully one must be sure to
spray before the kale plants have
grown more than four leaves. It will
take approximately 100 pounds of
iron sulphate dissolved in SO gallons
of water to the acre-a cost of So per
acre. What do you plan to thrash
next fall-kale- and oats, or oats
alone?

The Labor Problem.

With the present shortage of farm
labor it is necessary that each man
be so equipped that he can do the
very most possible. Three-horse
teams should be used much more than
they are at present. With the aver
age light horses which are on the
farms it is impossible with many of
our tools to do satisfactory work with
pair. To be sure we need heavier
horses, but until the farmers buy or
breed a heavier type of farm horse,
three horses will have to do the work
of two. And there are times when
you can use four to good advantage.
The use of labor-saving machinery
is important this year as one man OPP
Grating machine that accomplish
much in day means that much more
efficiency for the man.. And man la
Dor is what we wish to use efficiently.
Plan work ahead for your hired man
and do not have him working at jobs
on bright days that he could have
done in stormy weather. The hired
man is anxious to accomplish much
when he workS-let us who have
hired help plan so that our men may
do more than ever before this year.
Tillage.
With the acreage of crops planted
this year it viii be very important
that these be taken care of. Good
tillage is absolutely necessary for
several reasons. When weeds are al
| lowed to grow they take from the
earth large amounts of moisture that
the growing crops should have, and
also seed in the soil a crop of weeds
for the coming year. Weeds cut In
with corn or oats may mean many
weed seeds in the manure so that
other areas will be seeded the year
| following. When the soil is allowed
to bake and harden much moisture Is
| lost by evaporation A deep soil
mulch will conserve a large amount
of moisture and is especially impor-
tant in time Of drouth. Cultivation
after rains and showers is important
so that the soil viii not cake and
harden and more moisture be evapor-
ated than was received from the rain.
Aim to kill young weeds as at that
time little labor or effort is required.
Potatoes.
With the large acreage Of potatoes
which have been planted in this coun-
ty it is highly important that good
! care be given this crop during the
/ growing season. One very important
procedure in potato culture is proper
spraying both to kill bugs and to pre-
vent disease The first spraying
should be made usually during the
second week in July with a mixture
containing 3 pounds of copper sui
phate and pounds of lime In so gal
Ions of water. At least three spray
! ings should be made and four If pos
Sible lie we should haDpen To have
warm, damp weather the latter part
of August or firstof September, there
would undoubtedly be a large loss Of

The two great hgues which loom up

who did similar work during the

The Red Cross is organized and
actively at work today in all the ma
tons engaged in the great war. And
in all the wars of the last fifty years
the organization has rendered in
valuable service.
The first war i'll which it came into
prominence was that of 1866 between
Germany. Austria and Italy. In the
Franco Prussian war of 1870 the Red
Cross in France cared for 100000
wounded and in Germany there we're
1000 Red Cross committees.
In the Russian Japanese war the
