Why Juniors Leave the Farm.

Why did you leave the farm, my lad?
Why did you bolt and leave your
dad?
Why did you beat it off to town and
turn your poor old father down?
Thinkers OF platform, pulpit and press
are wallowing in deep distress.
They seek to know the hidden cause,
why farmer boys desert their pas.
"Well, stranger, since you've been SO
frank, I'll roll aside the hazy bank,
i left my dad, his farm, his plOw, be-
cause my calf became his COW.
| left my dad, twas wrong, OF course,
because my colt became his horse.
| left my dad to sow and reap, because
my lamb became his sheep.
dropped the hee and stuck the fork,
because my pig became his pork.
The garden truck that | made grow
was his to sell, but mine to hoe. "
"It's not the smoke in the atmosphere,
nor the taste for life that brought
me here,
Please tell the platform, pulpit, press,
no fear OF toll nor love of dress
Is driving off the farmer lads, It's just
the methods of their dads"

FARM BUREAU NOTES.

To prevent grasshoppers from cut
ting binder twine, mix two gallons OF
kerosene and one gallon OF crude
cresote and soak balls OF twine until
soturated. Let them drain and dry be-
fore using. This treatment is recon-
mended by w. p. Flint, Assistant State
Entomologist of Illinois, and is based
on one years results.
Now is the time to select and save
samples of grain to show at the County
Fair.
These recent rains make us think we
may be able to raise some clover seed
in the county this year. In face OF the
predicted severe shortage, those who
can raise their own seed, may undoubt'
edly consider themselves lucky.
The County Agent will be in atten'
dance at the Conference for County
Agents held at Grayling, Thursday and
Friday OF this week.
Don't give up to the hopper. Fight
him. Use the poison bait method.

PLANT COVER CROPS
FOR ORCHARDS NOW
High Priced Seed Must be Saved
by Better Cultural Methods.

East Lansing, July 14.-Cover crops
should be planted in Michigan orchards
during the last of July and early
August, according to Prof. c. p. Halli-
gan of the M. A. G. Horticultural De-
partment. Among those crops recon-
mended for .''cover" use are winter
vetch, clover, oats, rye, buckwheat,
cow peas, and alfalfa.
ut is common fault for Michigan
fruit growers to delay seeding their
cover crops too long," says Professor
Halligan. "The middle of July is not
too early for seeding such crops as
clover and winter vetch. While good
stands can often be secured when the
seeding is made as late as the first part
of August, it is generally better to
plant as early in the seeding time as
possible, July being preferred. Where
late seeding is made necessary for any
reason, rye is about the safest cover
plant, as it makes quick growth.
''The present high price of seed,
especially of clover, makes it necessary
for the orchardist to use the very best
cultural methods in planting his cover
crop, in order to save seed. Better
preparation Of the seed bed, and the
use OF drill instead Of broadcasting
the seed, will make it possible to cut
down the amount of seed used per
acre. For instance, while from 20 to
25 pounds of winter vetch seed must
be sown broadcast per acre, good re.
suits have been obtained from the use
of Is pounds per acre when drilled
into well prepared seed bed"
A bulletin giving full information on
cover crops may be obtained by writ
ing to the Horticultural Dept, M. A. C,
East Lansing.

smith, was almost instantly killed Sun
day forenoon at turn in the highway

about to take the curve touched the

the car but all but one escaped with
only minor hurts.
Passing autoists picked up the party
and brought the men to Petoskey. Mr.,
Peasley was still alive when placed in
the car for Petoskey but died before
this city was reached.

his brother, Gus Peasley, OF lone ST.,
