FARMERS MEETING AT MT.
VERNON

Monday. county court day. a good
crowd had gathered at the county
seat. County Judge Mullens gave up
the main court room to the farmers
and they filled the place. The top
les Of interest discussed were seed
corn and Liberty Bonds.
The chairman of the County Ag-
ricultural Committee, r. A. Sparks.
suggested an experience meeting
on testing seed corn. The testimo-
MES given showed the average very
low. which caused the farmers TO
think about and consider the seed
corn situation more seriously.
Mr.. Griffin volunteered to handle
seed corn for the farmers at the
lowest possible price.
A movement was put on foot for
the local farmers clubs 10 combine
in a county central board for hand
ling fertilizer, buckwheat and wool,
which will result in good for those
concerned.

WHEAT SAVING

We must cut down our own use
OF wheat IL we are 10 have enough
o. send 10 the allies. Therefore,
study these suggestions:
Substitute flour or meal made
from any other grain for ut least
one-half Of the wheat you would
ordinarily use.
Use white potatoes, sweet pota-
toes, rice. squash. and pumpkin as
substitutes for the wheat flour.
Use what is available in your
community.
Those who can save more than
the one-fourth will help TO make up
for those who cannot or are not
willing TO do their share.
The quick breads can be made so
as 10 save from half TO all the

high prices has demonstrated the
wisdom Of those who raised home
gardens last year.
The food shortage is even more
acute this year than IL was last The
railroads are burdened with war or
dcrs and prices are still advancing
The necessity for producing and
conserving food is. therefore, great
er this year than IL was last. The
home garden will not only produce
vegetables that will reduce the con-
sumption Of other foods during the
summer, but il will take the place
of other foods next winter. Every
can Of vegetables that is preserved
this summer means just one more
can that will not have TO be trans
ported next winter for local con-
sumption, and il relieves just that
much more food for the army and
for those persons who are not pre-
pared 20 cultivate garden.
The Extension Force of Kentucky
is urging that every family in the
state raise a garden. Every vacant
lot in the cities and towns should
be devoted to a food crop.
