COUNTY NOTES

Plan to visit one or more of the
Farm Bureau Demonstrations.
I. E. Rash of Westmore and A. p.
Niles & Son of Derby have each pur-
chased a high quality bull from D. G.
Speir's herd at Greensboro during the
last month.
What have you done about that
registered bull you wanted to buy be-
fore fall. The County Agent has
list that are for sale. Better call the
Farm Bureau office.
Start that rooster and so improve
the quality of your eggs. If you are
too busy for that, pasture him on the
public highway and TRUST to luck
some gas wagon will get him!
Better think over the lime propo-
sition. Many farmers who never used
this before are planning on turning
out few tons next year. They plan
to have it this fall or early in the
winter.
Kale is showing up strong this
year? Iron sulphate will "get" it If
used in a power sprayer. What about
power sprayer for another year?
Have you paid your membership
dues for another year?

Why Shaking the Head Means ~No."

The origin of this method of indicat-
ing "No'' is found in the result of the
mothers efforts in the animal kingdom
of trying to feed her young. A moth
er animal would be trying TO get her
young to accept the food she brought
them and tried to put IN their mouths.
Perhaps, however, the young animal
had had sufficient food or did not
fancy the kind of food offered The
natural thing TO do under the circum-
stances would be to close the mouth
tight and shake the head from side
TO side to prevent the mother from
forcing the food into the mouth. Thus
we get the closed lips and the shaking
the head from side to side to mean
"No." In other words, that kind of
a way of saying mo- came from an
effort to say 'T don't want any,

Praise and Blame

People of good sense allow liberal
discounts on all they hear. Both
praise and blame should be put un-
der the same culling process. More
people are rendered useless to society
by praise than by blame. It's so easy
to turn the head of those who have
little In them to hold them steady
People of stamina are fully aroused
by injustice. It's as much a challenge
to their ability as il is an insult to
their intelligence. They won't suffer
much by being falsely reported. Un-
truth is not any more pleasant to them
than il is TO thousands of others. but
IL reacts differently. Criticism puts
them on their mettle and they sfft the
report for the facts. Then they are
ready for business.

Barton's Winning Ball Team.

Three weeks ago, Barton did not
possess q ball team. Today Barton
has a ball team which is a winner.
having taken three straight games.
and is playing in such good form,
that local fans are convinced that the
cancellation of its game in Barton,
Tuesday at IL o'clock, that forenoon
by the Newport aggregation, was due
to its fear of meeting defeat, and not
having lost game out of the Is
played to date, hesitated to meet
Barton. Reasons given were a brok-
en- finger by one of its pitchers, but
since Newport has three box artists,
plays Morrisville Friday and North
Troy Saturday, it is thought to be
a question of cold feet more than
anything else
But Orleans, like the true sports of
which that team is composed, got its
men together in short order and came
to Barton, giving the home team and
more than 200 people who gathered
to see contest, an interesting game,
the result being a score of 4 to in
favor of Barton. Neither team
played a tight game by any means
but hits were scattered Mathews
for Orleans and Emerson for Barton
both pitched good ball, and the in
field work, especially of Barton was
strong.
Barton won its game at Orleans
from the Orleans team, Thursday, by
an 8 to 6 score in q very interesting
game.
Manager Cassidy states that Sher-
brooke is asking for game with the
Barton team, and he hopes to
schedule some more home games
soon.

A. nj. CLOUGH HEADS EXCHANGE
FOR COMING YEAR

At a meeting of the new board of
directors of the Exchange held short
ly after the annual meeting, A. M.
Clough of Irasburg was elected presi-
dent. c. II. Root was again chosen
for vice president and G. w. Rich
mond as treasurer. III. w. Shaw was
hired as manager for another year.
The present methods of doing bus
mess on a cash basis were discussed.
It was felt that some plan should be
worked out with the banks of the
county whereby any reliable farmer
could obtain short-time credit if he
was unable to pay cash before the
car arrived. Such plan is working
out well in Washington county in this
state A committee was finally
picked out to look up this plan and
see if some move cannot be made to
perfect like scheme in this county.

Why People Live Longer.

There are several theories why the
people are living longer nowadays, ac-
cording to different authorities.
Some say the crowded city with its
oftimes air tight houses is killing the
people, while others think that the
city with it's sanitation system, its
health rules, proper heat in the win
ter, the ability to board street car
and in five or ten minutes TO be
brought out in the open or near the
lake, are factors that make longevity
possible. These authorities further
add that the modern machinery,
which makes work easier, is preserv-
ing mans body and the advanced
medical world. too. has been more
than prominent in lengthening the
years

day. He told of the growth of the

bank. These men act in the capacity
of county agents as far as the bank
is concerned. They endeavor to in
terest farmers in better farming

credit to carry out these operations
upon the recommendation of these
"credit men,"
