On Sunday April q, our county
agent, Mr.. Hines and our county
aome demonstration, Miss Adsrlo
came to Idol and delivered good talks
on our duty to the country during
war times. Our County Agent stress
I'd better methods of cultivation to
Increase our food supply other than
an increased acreage. He also adj
vised that we produce crops such as
corn, beans, peas, poultry, etc, be-
cause these are always in demand and
usually can be held until the market
Is ready for them.
/ We realize now as never before
that we must do all in our power to
produce our own supplies because the
railroads are now oerburdened by the
transportation of armies and sup
plies.
A great many people are expected
to fill out the food blanks and get
the red, white and blue poster and
then place it where all who see it
will realize that we are cooperating
with our government.
Esquire E. j. Kincaid and Esquire
u. d. Dalton have posters and we are
anxious to supply every one who turn
| il the blank.
Our county agent says that only
in one place have they had better
crowd at meeting and that we are

PATRIOTIC MEETING.

Prof. Charles A. Keffer, director of
the Division of Extension will be in
Granger county, Sunday, April %,
and all citizens of the county will
have an opportunity to hear man
who is one of our most capable speak
ers. Possibly no man in the state is
better posted on war conditions and
can so we'll show us our responsible
ty at this time. 1t is sincerely hoped
that every citizen of the county will
hear him either at Richland, Sunday
morning at 10 o'clock, or in the court
house at Rutledge Sunday afternoon
at 2.
1t is expected that DR.. Allen, coun-
ty Food Administrator of Greene
County and possibly Miss Ambrose
or Mrs. Warner from the Division of
Extension will also be present. We
have also been promised Liberty
Loan speaker, hence we expect a
large crowd at each meeting place.

when the Cashier of the Messy Creek
Bank told him that he had lost 500
in former Liberty drive and didn't
care to invest in government geld

THE TOLL OF RUST

Al one time it may have been cheap
er--though this is even doubtful--to
let farm implements stand out of door
than to buy lumber to shelter them.
When steel was cheap and plentiful,
it was an easy matter to buy more
machinery for comparatively little
l.3ney.
Nowadays, however, because of the
war, all machinery has scared in price
and, with a small supply on hand,
there can be no doubt as to the econ
omy of providing shelter for farm ma
>h,nery. The inexpensive shed, which
is all that is necessary, win pay for
itself many fold in the longer time
the implements will last when prop
erly cared for. In addition to this it
is patriotic duty TO conserve the
supply when such vast amounts OF
machinery are needed by the United
States and her allies.
Idle time is the greatest waste in
farming vt seasons when work can
nat be oone in the fields, time can
not be better spent than in building
shelter for the fakmsimplements OF
in repairing it if it Us begun to GO
to pieces.
Moreover, the providing of such od
jobs will enable man to keep with
profit better class Of help than Nc
could otherwise keep, for he will
able to furnish employment at a g.
wage the whole year round---Farn
and Fireside.
