Paris, April THE food difficulties
IN Germany were not solved by the
signing of the food agreement. Ton.

CURED supplies and the available
grain stocks are so short that It prob.

full amount specified in the agree.

estimates that he can furnish Ger.
many 10000 tons Of grain in April.
However, German estimates that the
German grain and potato. stocks will
be exhausted before June are correct.
Mr.. Hoover expresses the belief
that 1t is questionable whether food
enough can be supplied to tide Ger.
many over until the next harvest,
particularly as German ships in
which the bulk Of the food must be
transported, cannot land cargoes in
Germany inside of six weeks.

Reputation Spread.
BY this time his reputation In the
poultry industry had spread to other
states and he was selling settings of
eggs throughout New England direct
to consumers, and had built up trade
In the sale of birds for breeding pur-
poses.
One year later. in 1917. he started out
with u business of his own, using his
own business cards, his own business
stationery, and expanding his poultry
plant two-f0ld. He became manager

he developed, rapidly, but found time

SELECTION OF BEST
VARIETIES OF SEED
Importance Is Indicated in Num-
Der Of Experiments.
Variation Of Yields Found At piffersn,
Western Stations With Wheat,
Oats and Bariey-Resuits Of
Experiments.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agrlculture.)
The Importance Of selecting crop
variety that Is suited to the section in
which it Is grown Is indicated In num-
Der Of varietal experiments conducted
at various field stations last year. In
cooperative experiments mt the Dick
iDson substation, North Dakota, a num-
Der of varieties of common wheat
grown under similar conditions pro-
duced yields which varied from 1874
bushels an acre to lib bushels. The
variations In yields of varieties Of
durum wheat were from 2O.2 bushels
an acre to 1872 bushels. A wide vari-
alton was obtained in similar expert
ments with oats, the range being from
49.5 bushels an acre to 1913 bushels.
Barley showed variation which
ranged from 23.6 bushels an acre to
81 bushels.
At the Cheyenne field station In
Wyoming varIetal experiments with
winter wheat gave yields which ranged
from an average of 35.5 bushels an acre
to 28.4 bushels; with spring wheat,
ALP bushels to 1876 bushels; with oats.
1915 bushels to 1913 bushels; with bar
ley, 73.1 bushels to Ala bushels.
At the Nephl substitution, in Utah,
cooperative results with varieties Of
winter wheat showed II variation rang
ing from 1913 bushels an acre to %
bushels, 2nd with spring wheat from
1871 bushels to 6.3 bushels.
Similar experiments conducted in
California with wheat showed a vari.
alton in yield ranging from so bushels
I'M acre to 1875 bushels. In series OF
years the average yields Of varieties
usually do not vary SO widely as these
yields of a single year, but it is gen
4 orally found that certain varieties give
better average yields than others and
are therefore more profitable.

HOW CAN YOU TELL YOUR
FAv0RITE TOBACCO?
As Plain as the Nose on Your
Face-Just Smell Il

Smokers do not have to put tobacco
in their pipes to find out if they like it.
They can just rub the tobacco between
the palms Of their hands and smell it.
The nose is an iniallible guide to smok-
ing enjoyment.
All smoking tobaccos employ some
flavoring ito improve the favour and
burning qualities of the leaves, to
quote the Encyclopedia Britannica.
Naturally. there is considerable differ
ence in the kind Of favorings used, and
the nose quickly detects this difference.
TUXEDO Tobacco uses the purest,
most wholesome, and delicious Of all
Observation-Disclosures. And the almost
universal liking for chocolate in great
measure explains the widespread popu-
larity of TUXEDO Tobacco.
Carefully aged. old Burnley tobacco.
plus g dash Of pure chocolate, gives
TUXEDO Tobacco a pure fragrance

WAY TO KEEP COUNTY
ORGANIZATION ALIVE.
Too Many Activities Are Liable to
Result in Failure.
Come Of Projects to Be Undertaken In
cIude Road Improvement, AgricuI.
turaI Fairs, Improved Breeds
Of Stock, Etc.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
One important thing to be borne m
mind Is that no organization will con-
tinue to exist that does not have some
definite plan Of work and some definite
purpose to accomplish. It should be
remembered, however. that too many
activities may result in failure. A few
well-defined policies or purposes sue
cessfully carried to conclusion will
mem permanency and success for these
organizations. Those responsible for
the county organization should lay
their plans well into the future, and
keep interest In the various local clubs
active. Road Improvement. county
agricultural fairs, rural telephone sys-
TENS. improved or consolidated schools,
vocational education, standardized cot
ton and corn for the county, improved
breeds Of live stock especially adapted
to local conditions. cooperative mar
keting, public entertainments, and So
cial welfare are some of the projects
being undertaken by county Organiza-
tons. 1t is not believed to be ad-
visable for county to undertake more
than two or three of these at time,
at least not the first season.
Whatever is undertaken should be
done we'll before new projects are
launched. Get the movement we'll un.
der way and 1t will be carried forward
by Its own momentum. The hard work
will come at the start. After 1t Is
started all you will have to do will be
to direct it into the proper channels.
