1t is good practice to SOW rape at
the last cultivation of corn. The lambs

and make excellent gains.

PhiIipp o. K.,s Bird Measure.

Senator Birds plan for a community
center to take the place of the saloon
as a common meeting place has re-
ceived the approval of Governor Phil
ip, and the bill to promote this end is
now a law.
When the federal prohibition amend
ment went through the legislature last
January, Senator Bird voted against
it, but announced that, knowing that
the amendment was sure of ratlflca-
ton, he would offer a measure which
would provide a system that would
in a way take the place Of the saloon
as a common meeting center.
The Bird bill, which has just been
approved by the governor, provides
that a community center may be Gre
ated an da community house main
tanned in n tract of contiguous teri
ritory containing either an area not
less than 16 square miles or a popu-
lation' of at least 500 inhabitants.
In the creation of a community CEN
ter district, the people have the right
to vote whether a community center
can be established. If the vote is IA
vorable, the officers of the community
center shall be a director, treasurer
and clerk, who shall constitute a COM
munfty board to manage its affairs.
These officials are elected for a term
Of three years, the Office of one OIL
cial expiring each year. A tax not to
exceed one mill on xcess valuation
may be voted for the erection Of the
building and for furnishing the same
with suitable apparatus.
Governor Philip has vetoed the
bill providing that deputy clerks to
the circuit courts in Milwaukee coun-
ty shall be appointed under the civil
service. The governor points out that
the law allowing judges Of circuit
courts to appoint their deputies has
been on the statute books since 1849.

Specializing Often Wins.

Many persons do not market by par
eel post because they do not have a
large variety of produce or because
their supply is available only part of
the year. Willie it is true that a con-
tinuous supply of number of products
is more satisfactory to customers, such
supply is not absolutely necessary
in order to establish parcel post
trade
Many persons have secured custom
ers by specializing in one or two kinds
of produce, such as butter or eggs,
which can be supplied during the en-
tire year, and then these customers
have offered an outlet for other COM
modities which can be furnished only
occasionally or for produce which is
rarely to be had in city markets. In
most of these cases it was necessary
only TO send letter or card to salts
fed regular customers asking them if
they wished to obtain certain kinds of
produce that were for sale at that
time
Such letters tend to Keep up d per-
sonal relationship between the pro-
Queer and his customers which makes
it easier to keep up business relations.

Meetina labor Demand.

Although the largest acreage on
record was planted in 1918 by Ameri-
can farmers. the great crops of the
year were harvested under difficulties
not appreciably greater than those in
normal times, says the annual report
of the secretary of agriculture.
THE department of agriculture con-
tinued throughout the year to give
earnest attention TO the securing and
mobilization of an adequate supply Of
farm labor" the report states. ut

representative of the department Of
agriculture having been designated Il
member of the war labor policies
board which was created by the presi-
dent. 1t has also aided the war de-
partment in connection with the clas-
sihcation of agricultural registrantS.
Special efforts were made. beginning
early in the year. to impress upon the
residents of urban communities the
necessity of aiding farmers in the
planting and harvesting of their crops.
1.-THE response to appeals along this
line was generous. In Kansas. for eN-
ample. where the situation was eSpc-
cially difficult, the reports indicate
that more than $4,000 workers were
supplied TO farmers to assist in the
wheat harvest. The potato, crop in
two counties in Texas was saved
through the aid of the business men in
the local communities, and inNIliinoiS
$4,000 workers were registered for
harvest work
Many other examples could be cited,
the secretary says.

ing brush or rubbish, where in most
cases water is not available, an or
ganized neighborhood fire company
equipped with chemical cart would
be of the greatest utility.
The Office of farm management of
the United States department of agri-
culture has for some time urged the
use of chemical apparatus as more
effective than water against fires on
the farm, especially where kerosene.
gasoline or other oil is involved, and
as an indispensable reinforcement TO
the use of water in all cases. That is
secured in the California plan together
with IN even more effective thing, the
