Aid Farmers.

When q business concern wants to
borrow money it makes a business
statement showing the inventOry-Or
money invested at the beginning and
end of the year-the money taken in
during the year, the expenses and the
profits. With this statement a banker
knows whether or not it is safe to
loan money to this company-in other
words, whether the company has a
good chance of securing profitable re-
turns from a further investment in
their business. A company with a
good business, as shown by such a
statement, usually has good credit
and can borrow money cheaply.
There are many farmers in this
country who keep records of what
they have on hand at the beginning
and end of the year and of what they
take in and what they spend. These
men can borrow money more easily
and cheaply than most farmers be
cause they have the figures to show
the banker.
But before a farmer borrows any
money he should have very clearly in
mind what he wants to use it for,
and be very sure that in the end II
will pay him to borrow.

Rice in the United States.

During the last two years the pro-
duction of rice in this country has
been at its maximum, between 10000
600 and 100000 bushels or. roughly,
one and one-ffth billion pounds. So far
as climate and soil are concerned, the
rice acreage in the United States
might be increased many fold, accord
ing to the United States department
of agriculture, since in the states of
North Carolina, South Carolina, Geor-
gia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi.
Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas and Cali
fornia, as well as in small areas in
Missouri, millions of acres are adopt
ed to the cultivation of this crop.
while less than one million acres To-
Gated within comparatively few
states are now occupied by rice One
of the quickest ways of increasing the
crop, the federal specialists say, is
to expand the acreage in the areas
where rice is already profitably
grown

COUNTY AGENT
BECOMES LEADER
Has Come to Act as Clearing
House of Cooperation Be-
tween City and Country.
CAN DIRECT where NEEDED
None of His Time Can Be Devoted to
Work That Does Not Concern
Agricultural DeveIopment-
Likely to Be Busy Man.

The growth and the Strengthening of
the county agent system has resulted
in almost all cases in the county agents
coming to be recognized as the agri-
cultural leaders in their counties, ac-
cording to reports to the United
States department of agriculture.
Help for City and Country.
The county agent has come to act
as the clearing house of cooperation.
He is available to both the city man
and the country man and can trans
NIT from one to the other requests for
help and offers of help. He can di-
rect, to places where it is needed, farm
labor offered; he can assist farmers in
their problem of cooperative market
ing; he can inform chambers of COM
merce, county councils of defense.
merchants associations and other ur-
ban bodies, OF the problems before the
farmers in his county; in general he
is in a position to act as the medium
through which the town will meet the
needs of the country and the country
will meet the needs of the town.
Must Concentrate Efforts.
Every county agent is required to
know and observe that his services be-
long to all the people in his county,
| but it is evident that none of his time
| can be given to work that does not
| concern agricultural development. He
| is placed in the county to stimulate
| good farming. Therefore, he must con-
| fine himself to work on definite prob
lens affecting farmers. 1t is neces-
! sary for him to utilizesthe aid of COM
munity organizations to the fullest
extent and it is within his duties to
impress upon the town people how
vital their interest and help is to the
farmers.
| In the war emergency the county
| agents are not only representing the
agricultural colleges and the depart
ment of agriculture, but are assisting
the food administration, the treasury
department, the war department. the
navy department, the department OF
| justice and the department of labor.
Help in Direct War Work.
They have aided, in addition to
| their regular activities, in such work
as food surveys, seed surveys, seed
distribution, obtaining credit for farm
| ers, selling Liberty bonds, eradication
| of livestock diseases, surveys of live
stock diseases, surveys of insect pests
and campaigns for their destruction
marketing farm products, preferential
i or priority shipments by railroads OF
| farm products and all farm supplies
and the dissemination of information
given out by the war department, ths
| council of national defense and the
committee on public information re
garding the war and other matters af
fecting the national policy under wal
conditions.
Thus it can be seen that the count.
agent is likely to be rather bus,
man.

RED CROSS PIG CLUB

The county agent in Carroll
county, Mississippi. started out
last winter to combine pork pro-
duction and Red Cross work.
He tried to get $500 people
each to raise one pig to be
known as a Red Cross pig. In
stead of $500 members, he got
5000 in a county that has only
1000 voters. In September
the club members are to send
5000 hogs to the st. Louis mar
ket. This will mean a contri-
button estimated at $4,000 to
the Red Cross, in addition to
more pork for the country end
more money for Carroll county.
A $25 registered pig is given
each month as a prize to the
member whose pig has made
the greatest gain.

The number now at work represents
an increase of more than 1000 over
those at work July 1, 1917. About 600
emergency agents over the number
working in May, 1918, were at work in
June, 1918.

"Can people or bees talk about

"Dear me. dear me- said Mr.. Bee,
''now isn't that just like bright child
He is asking such a clever question.
"Of course. dear Baby Bee" said Mr..
Bee, "you are quite right. They aren't
talking about nothing. What 1 really
meant TO tell you was that what they
were talking about need not be no
ticed by you. But 1 didn't say just
that, and you were so clever you want
ed to know just what 1 did mean by
what said.'
ST really don't understand even

I am not as clever as you think"
Yes, you are clever. buzz. buzz,
you are clever" said Mr.. Bee, and
Brother Bee said:
''Buzz, buzz. you are clever baby
brother. You are smart little bee.
81 am not so smart just doing moth
ing. am I?' asked Baby Bee.
"Ah. buzz. buzz, that is what makes
you SO smart-that and the bright
questions you ask ~
81 feel very stupid" said Baby Bee.
Listen. my dear little Bee, and I
will tell you" said Mr.. Bee. And all
this time the sister bees were saying
to each other:
'.Hurry hurry. buzz, buzz. work and
work and work There is no time to
waste, buzz, buzz. There is no time
TO waste!'
And in the center of all the other
bees was beautiful Queen Bee who
was constantly fed the most delicious
of goodies and who never did anything
but eat all she could get and lay eggs
so there would be more bees all the
time.
In way she was doing something
for she was making many subjects for
her kingdom. She was having a big
and splendid kingdom of bees over
which to reign. and she knew that if
she didn't do her part and didn't have
plenty of subjects, they would take her
off the throne and make another bee
the Queen.
But Mr.. Bee, Brother Bee and all the
other Mr.. Bees were doing absolutely
nothing at all. The new little bees
who kept coming into the bee world
were made assistant workers to the
ones who were already working so
hard. But none of the Mr.. Bees, or the
male bees did any work at all.
"Baby Bee" Mr.. Bee said, 1--WE aren't
supposed to work. In the Bee World
only the ladies do the work It's a
fine. sensible arrangement think. We
can be lazy and do nothing. There is
something very fine about doing moth
ing when we see others about us so
very busy. They rush about in such
n hurried, common fashionl We're
such little gentlemen"
Baby Bee listened. He was a little
male bee, and later on he would be a
full-grown Mr.. Bee. How dreadful
