FARM r

That the farmers are learning the
value Of advertising in the county pa.
pers, is evidence by the. following
statement from the Arlington Sun:
Farmers are beginning to realize
the value Of newspaper advertising
more and more as time passes and it is
a common thing nowadays to pick up
a country paper and find therein a
quarter. half-page or even a full-page
ad, giving publicity to an auction or
live stock sale. And it pays, because
the man who reads a newspaper will
read these ads at his leisure and con-
sequently more carefully than he
would an ordinary poster. Likewise,
IL he has a piece of machinery for
sale or wishes to buy some seed grain
OF a pig or a COW, a little item in his
home paper will bring quicker re-
suits than any other method. He is
learning that he can sell his goods
through advertising as probably as
any other business man.

CARE FOR

South Dakota potato growers are
urged to be on the lookout for potato
wart disease at digging time this fall,
and to send suspected samples to the
State College agronomy department
for examination and report. Accord.
ing to Manley Champlin, associate
agronomist, potato wart disease has
already made its appearance in Penn
sylvania and West Virginia, through
the use Of European potatoes for seed.
In order to prevent its further spread,
the Plant Disease Survey of the United
States Department OF Agriculture is
endeavoring to determine whether the
disease exists elsewhere. Professor
Champlin a y that "the time to detect
it is while digging the potato crop,
during the next two or three weeks
in South Dakota. The potato wart
disease causes the growth Of large
dark colored wart-like protuberances
on the potatoes. Affected potatoes are
practically destroyed. Seed from a
field where the disease is found should
never be used and the field itself
should be sown to grass or other crops
than potatoes for many years. No
,ne knows how long the disease liv'
but it is known to live a long time
in the soil"
Arrangements have been made with
the Plant Disease Survey to supply an
agent for about two weeks during the
fore part Of October to investigate
thoroughly any suspected fields in
South Dakota.

Two Paved Roads Planned
To Connect Portland And
Oregon City This Summer

Oregon City, Ore May 24-The eoun-
ty court will pave the river road and
will endeavor to complete all that por.
tion that is unimpToved during the com
ing summer, thus furnishing a paved
road the entire distance from Oregon
City to Portland.
A contributing factor to their decis-
ion was the action Of a number of resi-
dents liyings south Of the river road,
raising afund of 1850, which will be
placed at the disposal of the court to
assist in the work. Great pressure had
been brought to bear on the court to
select the road leading through Glad
stone and connecting with Steele ave
nue. at Glen Echo station.
The residents of Jennings Lodge, Mel
drum and Gladstone are determined to
have the latter route paved and will
leave nothing usdone to accomplish
their purpose.
As result there may be two paved
roads instead of one connecting Port
land and Oregon City.

On or about June first next there
will be established on the building of
the United States National bank, an
Illuminated chime clock, which will
not only add materially TO the appear
anee Of the town s busiest section, but
will provide a convenience that will
be greatly appreciated by the public.
The most distinctive feature Of the
clock other than its unusual artistic
appearance and the perfection of its
construction and mechanism, is the
complete set of beautiful chimes with
which it is equipped These ring every
quarter hour and may be heard practic-
ally as far as the clock may be seen.
The chimes ring out in various mus
ical combinations and strike the full
hour in q clear, vibrant tone.
The big clocks are operated by cleo
trieity from a master clock inside the
building, in the main banking rooms.

ture OF bronze and plate glass eonstruc.
