ARE LIABLE TO BE Fierce
CONTRACTS OFFERED FOR THE PRES
ENT YEARS TOBACCO CROP
Acreage Will be Large-Comment on Last and
Coming Yiehds-Tempting Offers
Already Made

The Edgerton Tobacco Reporter puts the
question Have you ordered your tobacco seed
another crop is securing the seed for the beds
which viii soon be laid. Start right by Sc
curing the best seed obtainable--seed that has
been tested and guaranteed as TO germinat ton
and true to variety. The kind Of crop grow
ers ought 10 raise is the kind Of binders deal
ors are most anxious for. Tobacco is bound to
be one of the safest crops farmers can pro-
duce now for few years and the 1918 crop
quite likely to be the most profitable one
Wisconsin has ever produced IL we read the
signs of the times right. 1t would be vastly
30 the interest of the growers to make il a
quality crop well.
Frosty nights have so far prevented any
thing being done towards preparing seed beds
The Reporter says that the growers are
still rushing the tobacco crop TO receiving
points and the unusually 6ne condition Of
the country roads has greatly facilitated the
movement. The deliveries at Stoughton on
Tuesday when Eve outside buyers
ceiving were the largest ever seen in that
market. between two and three hundred teams
being crowded about the station during the
busy part of the day.
We learn that a few Wisconsin packers
have already disposed of their 1917 holdings.
The opportunity came to them to secure
fair advance the cost which was accepted
rather than take the chances which they
always assume in carving the packing
costs close TO 500 as IL does this season,
those which 20 wrong in the cure soon eat
a big hole in the capital invested.
The Janesville Gazette thinks Charles Davis.
residing that city, raised the banner crop
in Rock county. He had four acres which he
sold for thirty cents per pound. This is the
highest paid there and Mr.. Davis thinks il is
as high any farmer has received anywhere.
The tobacco harvested the second Of
last August and all in before the frosts.
On a late day Nels II. Nelson Of Readstown
section. told the Censor that he believed he
received as high prices for his 1917 crop
any Vernon county grower. He contracted
at 2s and 8, and he received full price for
that portion Of his crop that was not frosted
and rs cents straight for that which was
damaged.
Farmers are preparing for their seed beds
Those who can do so will steam the soil
thus warming IL mp good and destroying foul
seeds. Ii will be but few days till the can
tops will be observed in all directions.
The Censor has been told that the anxiety
to secure coming seasons crops goes To the
extent that prices beyond those pals last
year thus early being offered. Whether
any contracts have actually been closed we
have no knowledge

LABOR AND CAPITAL UNITE
All Glasses Must Buy Liberty Bonds
 to Help Win the War.

We are face to face with the most critical situation in American affairs The time has come when each indi- vidual. no matter what his or her call ing. must do his utmost to help in winning the war to rid the world of German autocracy, to protect his home and the love of freedom. and to insure the coming generations that same freedom which Is 80 dear to every American citizen.
 In this cause there must be no class distinction the laborer and cap italist are equally interested and af- fected, and each must, for the time, forget self and stand shoulder to shoulder in helping the government in this crisis.
 A war cannot be conducted without money. Less than 10000, 900 people subscribed to the first two Liberty Loans. There ought to be 30.0oo. 900 subscribers to the Third Liberty Loan.
 Let us all put up a solid front of complete and determined cooperation and see to it that the present Liberty Loan is fully and promptly subscribed.

FARMERS SUPPORT THE LOAN
By Clifford V. Gregory, Editor, the Prairie Farmer.

t takes money to fight a great war through to victory and 1t is up to us to furnish it There was some critt cism at the time of the second Liberty Loan to the effect that farmers were not buying bonds as Hberally as they should. Most of this criticism was unJust.aed. though there is here and there stacker in the country as well as elsewhere. We are in better shape to subscribe to this Loan for 1t comes at time when we have more of the years products turned into cash
 Let us subscribe with a willingness that will make criticism impossible. that will show Uncle Sam the farm CTS of America are behind him with their money as we'll as with their blows. Every dollar subscribed 70 the Liberty Loan helps to bring e kaisers day of reckoning nearer.

BANK DEPOSITS NOT
 DEPLETED BY LOANS
Despite the Fact That Billions Have Besn Invested In Liberty sonds,
 an Increase Is Shown.

There is in some sections fear on the part of the banks that Liberty Loan subscriptions will tend toward a material decrease in bank deposits.
 To offset this fear the following summary of the statement of the Comptroller of Currency. dated April 15. 1918, should correct this impres- sion.
 This statement, naturally. applies only to national banks, but is doubt less also true of state banks and trust companies.
 On March IS, 1917, the total depos- its of national banks were $12,957.- 900, GOO, or nearly 13 billions.
 h spite of the sale of Liberty Bonds xnee that time of $5,88o, 100000 or about ss1 billions, the deposits in na- tional banks on March 1, 1918. show m increase of s1,4so ,6ss, 900. or near ly one and ope-haH billion. as com paT~d with March s, 1917.
 The te4al amount of Liberty Bonds owned by national banks on March 4. 1913. was $4ss.73s,Oo0. This is less than $500.
 This amount of Liberty Bonds owned by national banks on March 4, 19iS. is only about 7h per cent of the total of the first and second Lib. erty Bond issues.
 These facts should be given by the directors of publicity to all banks in their localities.
 It Is the most accurate and forcible evidence of the effect upon bank de posits of the Liberty Bond sales.

MIR. FARMER, WAKE UP!
You Are Vitslly Interested in This
 World War-1uy a Bond.

Too few farmers, far removed from the war, realize the seriousness of our present predicament. The very fact that the farmer is not immediately in touch with the war makes the danger more imminent
 Russia is made up of farming popu- lation, probably threefourths of which knew very little of what the war over there meant. As a result the army was not proyisioned and money not kept in circulation and the military machine collapsed. Support our army by buying bonds.
The Nevada County picayune., 1918-05-02
DON'T BURY YOUR BOND
Deposit lt in Your Bank and You Can
 Raise Money on It if You Need

When you and your neighbor have bought your Liberty Bonds don't take them home and hide them in the cup. board Take them to your country banker and have him give you certifi. cates of deposit for the bonds. Your banker can take these bonds to a Fed eral Reserve bank and borrow money for your use in case you suddenly find yourself in need of funds.
 Hiding a bond in your stocking at this time is just as bad as hoarding money. Keep the bonds and the money in circulation and the country will pull through this crisis all right.
