The object of varying is to teach the

cereal and dislike all others. Many
times children who do like one cereal
better than another are given the one

FARMERS FACING SERIOUS
PROBLEM IN CLOVER
CROP

Unless farmers in Wisconsin make
their first cutting of clover for hay a
week earlier than usual and then plan
to use the second crop for seed, this
state will experience clover seed
shortage that will completely upset the
four year rotation that is the mainstay
of Wisconsin farming. r. A. Moore,
experiment Station agronomist, says
that not only will the profits from the
clover seed repay the farmer for
smaller crop of hay, but a return to
the old practice of using the second
crop for seed will assure the necessary
acreage of medium red clover in the
future.
1t is especially necessary that the
first cutting be made early says Mr..
Moore. Many farmers who have allow
ed their clover to reach the full cutting
stage in June and depended upon the
second crop for seed have been disap-
pointed in the yield of seed. When
the field is to serve for both seed and
hay the first cutting of medium red
clover should be made just when the
field is beginning to blossom. Some
plants will be only in full bud, the
whole field in about three-quarter
bloom. This lis about a week earlier
than the usual cutting time.
Fields cut at this stage start up
rapidly because the roots still have vi
tality, and good crop of seed can be
obtained.

LAONA TO ENGAGE
TOWNSHIP NURSE
First Town in the State to
Have Public Health Nurse

Through it's action in providing for
public health nurse in Wisconsin, La
ona township is winning statewide
attention for its foresight and progress
siveness. Stories in city and county
papers have given the township wide
publicity. Declaring this action is not
only important for Laona but that it is
paign, DIR. Hoyt E. Dearholt, executive
secretary Of the Wisconsin Antf-Tuber-
culosis association, has written letter
of congratulation to Frank F. Flanner,
chairman of the Laona township Board
The letter follows:
In behalf of the people of Wisconsin,
who by their voluntary support each
year commission this association to
carry on the campaign for the protec-
tion of their health interests, the Wis
consin Anti Tu berculosis association
wishes to take this opportunity to ex-
press it's deep appreciation of the big
step taken by your township in provid-
ing for the appointment of township
nurse.
The honor of being the first town
ship in Wisconsin to secure trained
public health worker for service in the
schools and homes is one of which you
may well be proud. The progressive
spirit you have shown cannot fail to
have an influence on the boards of
other townships and you will thus have
the satisfaction of knowing that in
providing health service for your own
people you are also making an import
ant contribution to the entire state
campaign for better health protection.
The township of Laona is to be con-
graduated on the foresight of it's
people in recognizing the Importance
of raising physical standards and of
giving proper attention to remediable
physical defects. The action taken in
Laona should give impetus to the cam
paign to secure county nurse for For
est county but even when she is seour-
ed we do not believe you will be will
ing to give up your own health worker.
There isn't county in Wisconsin
where there isn't need for more than
one public health nurse or health in
structor.
AS you are just starting out on new
experiment, let US suggest that careful
record be kept of the work done and of
any health activities which may be
started in connection with it in order
that your experience may be of value
in guiding other townships which will
eventually follow your lead. When
ever this association can be of assist
ance to you, in securing a nurse, in or
ganizing the work or in any way, do
not hesitate to let us know.

 There had been discussion. pro and con about the groundhog. Some contended that NJ. Groundhoe
 made his annual debut on the second day of February. while others maintained that he would not come forth for two | more weeks,
 An item in the paper said he would be out on February ?

Last Day of the
 Relief Fund Drive

lHNURING the war when patriotism AO was keyed up to the highest degree and the heart was quickly touched by all appeals for charity every money-raising campaign in lief ferson county went over the top.
 Now that the war is over thousands of people in the near east are suffer ing for food and clothing and insti- tutions here at home depending upon voluntary contributions are in need of funds. And yet apathy has taken the place of the giving spirit.
 This county's Armenian Syrian re- lief committee was well organized, but the response has been distinctly disappointing. We are far short on our quota.
 The drive will continue through to- day and large results at the wind up are hoped for. Individuals who are able to contribute, but who have not been solicited directly by the can yassers, will help to swell the total by sending their checks to headquar- ters on the second floor of the First National Bank building. In the large office buildings are hundreds of men who have not been heard from.
 As there is no time to be lost every body with a heart for distressed hu- manity, but who has yet done nothing in the matter of relief, is urged to act promptly It will be too late after today.
 The nationwide canvass has been marked by indifference, all because the war is over. There is no reason in this attitude.
 By all means let the people of Bir- mingham wake up and redeem them selves as far as possible at the eleventh hour. The cause is surely worthy of g maximum of effort.

Well May Hohenzollerns
 Ask If They're Dreaming

A TIER four years, during which EA the incredible and the impos- sible came to pass with almost clock like regularity, the world has ceased to be surprised at anything. Yet, what thoughtful person imagined two years, or even one year ago, that he would ever take up his favorite news paper and read the announcement that a saddlemaker had been elected President of Germany?
 It seems like a bolshevist fantasy, in Germany of all the countries on the earth, yet there is nothing so pre- posterous in Ebert's election, after all At time when Germany seemed de- stined to follow in the footsteps of Russia and go down in ruin, a man stood forth who was strong enough to cope with the situation. His elevation to the office he now holds followed in the natural course of events.
 There has been little of the spectacu- lar in the sessions of the national as- sembly at Weimar While the dele gates showed a certain uneasiness, as of men and women in a new environ ment, to which they found some diff ficulty in adjusting themselves, their deliberations were more prosaic than otherwise.
 Although Prussian officers in Switzerland may toast the former Kaiser and draft a telegram to him so insulting to the allies that it was not accepted for transmission, recent events at Weimar must be invested with strange unreality for the royal exile in Holland. A saddlemaker, for sooth, Germany's first citizen" de- spised socialist, whom the proud Ho- henzollerns did not consider good enough to lick their boots. It is enough to add few more gray hairs to the luxuriant beard of Wilhelm, if it is not already white.

Responding to Appeal
 For Annual Membership.

| 1O IRMINGHAM's community. sing O has proved to be a popular in- stitution and the appeal for con- tributing members to the sing asso- citation should bring large results.
 The membership campaign opened yesterday and the reports of the can wasting committees were encouraging. 1 The drive will be well under way to- day and with full measure of enthu- siasm a thousand members should be enrolled in less than a weeks time. The annual fee is only five dollars and surely there are thousand people here who feel an interest in the com munity sing as civic asset, to say nothing of their individual interest in music.
 An annual revenue of five thousand dollars would place the Sunday con- certs on a permanent basis, with a larger orchestra employed than has been heard since the Philharmonic or ganization was giving the public a taste of symphonic works and other standard compositions year ago.
 The Sunday programmes are chosen with an educative purpose in view, but they are never over the heads of the average audience, The lightest of music to be cultural, however, needs frequent rehearsal, and there would be a marked improvement in any or chestra's performance if the members could be paid enough to secure their services for practice during the week.
 With the combined revenue from the Sunday collections and the member ship fund the requirements for high class achievement could be met. All the great orchestras have had small l beginnings and have grown to their present proportions with the growing appreciation on the part of the music loving population.
 l But the question of immediate in terest is the community proposition. Birmingham should manifest pride lin what has already been accom- lplished. Let's go on and roll up the membership. With "No tagging" as the slogan, the high water line will be shortly reached

 almost before I knew it got so high nat
 had to top them. Then along cam the city and changed the grade of the st eet and topped off part of my yard, and down tumbled my stone fence. had to transplant my hedge, and as the trees were so near the avenue I chopped them
 down to the ground, and I thought I was
 through with them but this spring little
 trees came Up all over my lawn and I have about worn myself out trying to dig
