This means that those who have
storage space or who can secure
storage space for coal, and do not
place orders for their coal supply
during the summer, will not be sup
piled next winter until the mines OF
the dealers have filled all the orders
which are ahead of them.
AS there will probably not be enoug
Jcoal to fill all the orders, it is more
than likely that those who are able
to pay for and store coal and fail to
do so will not be able to obtain coaI
next winter. Therefore place your
orders now and let the mines or deal

ABOUT THE FARM

Clover allowed to stand too long
makes poor quality of hay and may
injure another crop.
Sheep are hard to beat when it
comes to killing the weeds, briers,
etc., in pasture fields. The manure is
deposited on the higher places where
it does the most good.
Your county agent or most any
community chairman might be able 70
show you how to shock wheat accord
iag to war time methods.
Some few men seem to realize al
ready that farm may be judged by
the weeds growing along the road
side.
Corn that is cultivated shallow
should not be suffering for lack Il
moisture. The fourteen-tooth harraf
and the Gee Whiz cultivator are ideal
for this work.
If all the clover and grass along
the roads of this county could be
saved for hay it would add to the
amount of meat products to be shipp-
ed from the county.
