Keen the Garden Going.

Don't let the garden loaf after the
crops planted in the spring have been
gathered. Plant new crops for fall
harvesting and get the maximum bene-
tit from your food plot.
In most sections OF the United
States nearly all the common garden
vegetables can be planted early In Au-
gust with plenty of time for their
maturity before the first killing frost
In the autumn. As late garden crops
which may follow others the following
are suggested:
Beets, Brussels sprouts. late cab
bage, caulifiower. celery. sweet corn
kaie. peas, spinach and turnips.

to plant small areas to Rocky Ford
seed. The result--in 1917 farmers of
this section sold 20 cars of cantaloupes
with gross returns Of over $4,000. Re-
ceipts per acre ranged from $3.50 to
$3.50.
The farmers began to appreciate the
value Of their land, started sowing
winter crops, called upon the county
agent concerning sllos and began look
Ing about for cattle for their farms.
Land that had slow sale at $25 an
acre jumped In two years to $75 an
acre, according to report to the United
States department of agriculture. Not
least important, through the canta-
loupe enterprise the county agent
gained the confidence of the farmers
Of the entire county In his work for
better farming.

The city Is the great stronghold of

might be destroyed In all rural dis

older the city the more rats are found
In It, but even in parts rebuilt after
large fires they are still to be found,

buildings, rat-proof as to walls and
foundations, have become infested
with rodents through carelessness or
oversight of owners or occupants and
the animals are intrenched behind fix.
lures or merchandise. Fortunately II
is possible to rout the rats from these
hiding places.
The biological survey of the U. S
department of agriculture recon-
mends that cities require that all
buildings to be erected shall be made
rat-proof under rigid system of In
spection; that all existing buildings
with rat-proof walls and foundations
be made really rat-proof by closing oil
screening every opening through which
rats might enter; that rat-proofing re

buildings that need them. Use of dogs

WHAT FARMER THINKS
OF THE COUNTY AGENT.

The states relations service of
the United States department of
agriculture has on file thou
sands of letters from farmers
telling Of help they have re-
ceived from county agents.
The following is quoted from
letter written by w. I'll. Har-
vey, a farmer Of Long Beach,
Call:
Farming is no longer a blum
dering Job. 1t is growing into
science. To succeed, organiza-
ton, method, system and scien-
tific knowledge are needed.
These steps are developed and
brought about or made possible
by the right kind of a county
agent. He is, therefore,
trained. skilled man in personal
touch with the farmer to help
solve the thousand and one
farm problems as they come up
and has at his beck and call the
scientific men of this great
country"
