| sprayed with q total OF $50 trees
Farmers are pleased with the yields
One man stated that one Of his trees
bore at least fifteen bushel OF good
apples. During late summer and fall
the power sprayer was rented out FOL
the purpose OF spraying farm build
ings. Practically twenty-eight barns
ten hog houses, and eight poultry
houses were white-Washed. Next
eason the power sprayer will probably
be equipped for spraying potatoes
Farmers who are interested in having
their orchards or buildings sprayed
should notify the Farm Bureau Office
by letter SO that arrangements can be
made for the future.
The Farm Bureau rendered timely
service in aiding farmers with the In
come tax reports and farm accounts.
During Feb, and March $50 farmers
were assisted and over three hundred
farm account books disposed of. This
service will be enlarged during the
coming year through the cooperation
Of the bankers. The Farm Bureau
will probably maintain one or two as
sistants at the central Office for this
work when the time comes.
The control of Animal Diseases has
received due consideration. DR.. X.
w Strouder Of Ames was secured for
three days and nights to talk to
farmers on Sanitation. Hog Cholera
and tuberculosis. The meetings were
well attended. During the County Fair
two representatives OF the Bureau Of
Animal Industry were stationed in the
Farm Bureau booth to instruct farm
ers In the eradication OF tuberculosis
The meetings were we'll attended.
AS a result several farmers have
requested that their herds be tested.
The time is not very far dis.
tant when every farmer will be re-
quired to have his herd tested. Men
who have immune herds will be In line
for much business. The Farm Bur
eau is interested in the development
OF this work from three angles. First.
70 prOtect human health: second to
to increase the value Of livestock in
general.
Today. hogs from Delaware Coun-
~ are discounted thirty cents per
head on account Of tuberculosis and
some markets In the state will only
purchase hogs on the basis Of killing
test The only way to meet his ami
NAL loss is for Delaware County to
clean up.
During the recent outbreak OF hog
cholera the Farm Bureau has endeav-
ored to stop the epidemic. Every
farmer in the county received a let
ter warning him OF the outbreak and
giving instructions for control. Post
ers were established over the county
giving warning and requesting people
to cooperate in controlling the dis
ease, Every Farm Bureau member
was furnished with quarantine
card which bore the words, "NO
TRESPASSING." "A Federal In
spector was secured and quar-
