busting and Spraying.

The difference in the total cost Of
the two methods for extensive COM
mercial operations would undoubtedly
be smaller than is shown here.
Insect Control.
No data was secured about insect
control because there has never been
enough insect injury on the %untreated
trees 10 give al accurate check as TO
the efficiency of the dust for this pur-
pose. Experiments in New York have
shown that the l%eaf-roller and codling
moth can be controlled there by the
to believe that the busting method
will control the insects in Michigan
orchards.
Conclusions.
This summary is intended simply TO
show the progress Of the experiments
that have been conducted for the last
three years with the sulphur dusts.
No definite conclusions are intended
to be drawn at this time from this
work as the use Of busting material

still in the experimental stage. If
this method of control continues to
develop as rapidly as during the past
few years, it will prove of great value
TO many apple growers, largely be-
cause of the ease and rapidity Of ap-
plication.
Suggestions.
For the benefit of fruit growers who
may care TO use the busting method
at this time, a few suggestions may
prove helpful. .
A buster of sufficieMC capacity and
power should be used. Efficient work
cannot be done with an understood
machine.
Special busting sulphur should al
ways he used. The ordinary grades
of sulphur are not satisfactory.
Home-mixing Of materials should
not be tried unless a special mixing
machine is used.
Applications should be made from
two opposite directions and preferably
when there is not any wind.
Unlike spraying, busting can be
safely done when the foliage is wet.
More applications of dust than are
usually made of the liquid sprays will
probably be desirable. However, the
number will depend largely upon
weather conditions. The applications
Of dust should, of course, be made
before scab infection periods. Cool
and rainy weather is favorable to scab
development.
The horticultural department also
conducted a busting experiment with
peaches I'm 1917 but no definite con.
illusions could be drawn from the re
suits of this work as there was SO
very little injury by insects or dis
eases in the untreated plots. This
work indicated, however, that peaches
can be busted safely and that peach
scab and brown rot can be controlled
by busting.

A Business Should be
as Big as Its Job

as Big as Its Job
If bigness is of benefit to the
public it should be commended.
The size of a business depends upon the
needs which that business is called upon to
serve. A business should be as big as its
lob. You do not drive tacks with a pile
driver-or piles with a tack-hammer.
Swift & Company's growth has been
the natural and inevitable result of ma
tional and international needs.
Large-scale production and distribution
are necessary to convert the live stock of
the West into meat and by-products, and
to distribute them over long distances to
the consuming centers of the East and
abroad.
Only an organization like that of Swift &
Company, with it's many packing plants, hun
dreds of distributing houses, and thousands
of refrigerator cars, would have been able to
handle the varying seasonal supplies Of live
stock and meet the present war emergency
by supplying, without interruption:
First-The u. S. soldiers and the Allies
in Europe by shipping as much as 800 car
loads of meat products in a single week!
Second-The environments in the United
States.
Third-The retailers upon whom the
American public depends for its daily
supply of meat.
But many people ask-Do producers and
consumers pay too much for the complex
service rendered?
Everyone, we believe, comedies the eff
cheney Of the Swift & Company organization
in performing a big job in a big way at a
minimum of expense.
Swift & Company's total profit in 1917 was
less than 4 cents on each dollar of sales of
meat and by-products. Elimination of this
profit would have had practically no effect on
live stock and meat prices.
Do you believe that this service can be
rendered for less by any other conceivable
method of organization or operation?

FAIRLY WELL OBSERVED

The government request for the
conservation of gasoline on Sunday by
the discontinuance Of the use of all
automobiles and motorcycles was
fairly well observed during the day
light hours last Sunday but there was
far too general use Of autos early
in the morning and in the evening.
That there may be no misunderstood
ing as to the wishes Of the fuel ad-
ministration we give the request as is
sued:
The United States Fuel Administra-
ton therefore requests that in the sec
ton of the United States east of the
Mississippi River there shall be dis
continuance of use of the vehicles
above specified, including all such as
are operated for hire, on each Sunday
hereafter until notification that the
need for such discontinuance has ceas-

MILLION AND HALF
is TOLL OF SHUTS

East Lansing, Sept. ga grand to-
tai of 35O,421 bushels of wheat and
1,239,430 bushels of oats, valued at
$1,526, 1O6.38 were destroyed in Mich
igan during the past summer by the
disease known as "stanking
FIVE
smut" of wheat, and "loose smut" Of
oats, according to report from the
Michigan Agricultural college.
The figures were obtained by the
college from the reports of corps
of five inspectors who during July and
August inspected fields of wheat and
oats in practically every county in the
state. The work was done as part of
the nationwide cereal disease survey
being conducted by the United States
department of agriculture.
The damage inflicted upon wheat,
the inspectors found, averaged about
BIT percent of the crop. AS the har-
vest this summer amounted to 1885,
900 bushels, the loss of wheat was
35O,421 bushels, or enough to supply
Is ounces of wheat bread daily for a.
year to an army division of 100000
men.
The loss of the oat crop was Ia
per cent, or 1928, 430 bushels valued
at $737, 658.
Failure by many farmers to treat
their grain with formaldehyde before
planting is said by the college to have
been responsible for the loss. Formal
dehyde, according to the Psychologists,
is an absolute protective agent. Grow
ers are advised that instructions on
how to treat grain can be secured
from their local county agricultural
agents, or by writing to the Depart
ment of Botany, M. A. c., East Lam
sing.

DEATH OF HENRY SCHROEDER

Henry Schroeder, a we'll known res
ident of Middlebury township passed
away Thursday, August 10th at the
home of his daughter, Mrs. j. E. Cook,
aged 81 years.
Deceased came to this country at
the age of 10 years, at the time when
sailing vessels were the only means
of conveyance, spending seven weeks's
on the ocean voyage.
He located at Marine City and at the
age of % was united in marriage to
Miss Anna Marie Reichle. who pre-
ceeded him in death Nov. 18th, 1901.
To this union was born II children,
three having died in infancy. Freder-
lex William, died Feb. z, 1912, and
Catherine Nethaway, Jan. 81, 1917,
and survived by one son, Henry Sch
roeder, of Weston, Oregon, Mrs. Bar
bara Lotridge, Mrs. Regina Cook, Mrs.
Mile Curtis, Mrs. Lolita Darling, all
of this vicinity, and Mrs. Henrietta
Trap, of Alpena. From Marine City
they moved to one mile east of Ovid
to the little place then called Clark's
Corners, where he worked at his trade
as blacksmith. In 1869 he purchased
the farm in Middlebury township, hew-
ing the timber to build their log house.
He resided on the same farm until
about six years ago when he went to
make his home with his daughter,

Lansing. Mich, Sept. 4-Prepara-

Lansing, Mich, Sept. 4.-Prepara-
tory work for the big community
house and dormitory to be constructed
by the state at Camp Custer is al
ready underway and within less than
two months, the fathers, mothers, sis
tiers, brothers, and sweethearts OF
Michigan's soldier boys will be able to
go to Custer to visit the selected men
under comfortable circumstances.
Thus far, there have been at Custer
no accommodations of any kind for
those who go to pay a farewell visit
before the boys leave for the battle
fields in France. The community
house will not only be place where
the boys can meet and entertain their
visitors, but the latter can secure ac-
commodations there at nominal
price, both rooms and meals. Mothers
and fathers will be able to say good
bye in the seclusion of their own rooms
today these, sacred, and perhaps last
farewells must be said in public.
The club house will be enlisted men
and officers alike-there will be no
distinction. 1t is the wish of the army
heads that these club houses be dem
ocratic. The humblest private will
have every privilege accorded major
general; they will meet and mingle
on equal footing. Entertainments
will be given every night for the boys
"a big auditorium being provided.
Writing rooms, reading rooms, loung-
ing rooms, and all other benefits Of
club life will be afforded. The dormi-
tories will be built as wings on two
sides of the club house, and will have
for 800 persons.
The committee appointed by Gov
ernor Sleeper to supervise the con-.
,truction and expenditures, promises |
4 building that cannot be duplicated
'or the same cost by any private en-
;erprise. 1t has already made con-
;racts for material with a number Of
concerns at cost prices, gaining this
advantage by appealing to the patri-
,tism of the dealers. 1t hopes to
ecure every bit of material for build
ng and furnishings on similar favor
