ORGANIZE FOR
BETTER DAIRYING

A drop of sixty cents a hundred
weight in the wholesale price of milk
caused the dairymen in Adair county
to organize a county dairy associa-
ton to promote better understanding
of the value of dairy products on the
part of the consumer and better
knowledge Of sanitation, balanced RAJ
tons, the use Of better sires, keeping
of records, etc, on the part of the pro-
Queer. In short, the plan of the local
association is to put dairying on a
business basis in the county. The
members have pledged themselves to
have their herds tuberculin tested and
many have agreed to keep records.
Good dairy feeds are also receiving
attention. Although the acreage of
soy beans was greatly increased last
year, the farmers are making many in
quirics this year and the indications
are that the average of last year will
be doubled. Clover is being sown on
practically all the land that was
lined last season and it is anticipated
that the clover will show up much bet
ter on the lined land than on the I'M
lined land as nearly all soil was acid.

You hear the question argued as to
part in the buying Of Liberty Bonds
it is generally admitted that he has.
But--as with other men-there were
thousands of him who Stacked.
There is no sense in being soft-spok-
en- about it The facts show it. The
various Liberty Loan organizations
had farmers on their Stacker lists,
Just as they had slackers from other
lines of work. Some farmers failed
to prove their loyalty, Just as some
lawyers, some doctors, some mer-
chants and some others failed
Uncle Sam has been the farmers
biggest customer He bought more
farm products than anyone else. Uncle
Sam was the feeder of many mouths.
In his armies and navies he had nearly
100000 men. And as Uncle Sam is
still the biggest customer, the greatest
buyer of farm products. He has hun
dreds of thousands Of men still IN

duce abroad. The way seems to have
been paved for American farm pros
perity for good many years. Not
war prosperity, of course, but some
thing very near it. 1t looks like the
farmer should be able to dispose of
all be can produce for a good while
now.
Has the farmer been appreciative
Of these things? Has he met his old
Uncle Samuel about halfway in the
big jobs? Well, it has been argued
and it has been disputed. Doubtless
the farmer has taken care of his share
Of the undertaking. But whether he
has or not, he has chance in this
last, the Fifth or Victory Liberty
Loan, to make his presence felt.
The loan is big one and there will
be plenty of room for the farmer as
well as every other man in the coun.
try to get a piece Of it. There was
very little criticism of the rural com
munities during the Third and Fourth
Loans and during the Fifth drive it
is likely that the farmer will march
off with the honors. There is another
chance to buy Liberty Notes (short-
term bonds), the soundest of sound
investments.

jority of the codling moth worms take
their first meal.
Spraying apple trees when they are
in full bloom is also apt to prevent a
satisfactory set of fruit. The spray
ing solution may be strong enough to
burn and destroy the reproductive or
gans of the flowers.
When about two-thirds of the petals
have fallen, spraying work may be-
gin, as practically all the nectar will
have dried up and the bees will not
be found visiting the flowers. No in
jury can, therefore, be done to the
bees if the spray is applied immedi-
ately after the petals fair Use lime

Since the little cavity at the bios
som end of the apple, known at the
calyX cup, remains open for only a
week or ten days, for most varieties
of apples, the spray should be applied,
if possible, within from to 7 days af-
ter the petals fall in order to be most
effective in killing the apple worms.
A large percentage of these worms
upon Matching from the eggs of the
codling moth take their first meal in

the spray a few grains of arsenic
