DECORATING LIBERTY
WAREHOUSE FOR FAIR

Work was begun this morning dec
Grating the Liberty looseleaf tobacco
warehouse for the Maysville Corn and
Tobacco Fair which Is to be held here
November 20 to 81, inclusive. The
decorating is in the hands of the COM
mittee with Secretary George s. Kirk

that the decorations will be equal to
any of the previous fairs.
The building is to be heated by gas
furnaces, placed in different parts of
the building. Extra gas pipe is being
placed to give accommodation to those
who have already applied for gas to
be used in demonstration purposes.
All of the booths have been sold and
allotted to owners. These are to be
decorated by each individual owner
and are to be ready for the fair which
begins next Tuesday. Several late ap-
plicants for booths are meeting with
refusals, as there is no room for them.

AGGIE PROFESSOR DISAGREES
WITH HOPPER STATEMENT
Aggie Professor Says That Chickens
Are Inefficient Grasshopper
Scavengers-Would
Destroy Crops
Themselves.

Professor C. r. Jones Of the En-
tomological Department of the Colo
rado Agriculture College takes excep-
ton to a statement which appeared in
News Notes" a week or two ago. The
article in question is one about con-
trolling grasshoppers with running
fowls Professor Jones says 81 Will
admit that chickens, turkeys, and all
domestic fowls will feed upon grass
hoppers whenever possible, ard turk
eys and chickens Will materially aid
in local control. They are very effect
i've over snall areas, as they will eat
a great quantity of young hoppors.
However, their effectiveness must not
be overestimated as it is utterly i'm
possible for any farmer to have n suf-
ficicnt flock to patrol his entire field.
The wandering habit of the turkey
takes him thruout the infested fields
where he is undoubtedly beneficial to
a certain extent in hopper control, but
chiekenc arc of different nature, and
in most cases stay in the immediate
vicinity of their houses. If they were
used, their coops would necessarily
have to be placed in the infested fields
and moved at regular intervals to
cause them to be in the least effective.
Then again, you must look to your
crop where fowls have foraged. What
is its condition? In most cases COM
pletely trampled out. Choose of the
two evils, chickens or hoppers. Again

Advertising Helps Farming

Not long ago South Dakota farm
er gave a country editor in his vici-

Stepping into the editors office he an
nounced briskly: 81 want to contract
for some space in your paper weekly
for the coming year."
The editor gasped but then smiled
happily.
81 always have something to sell or
trade or else want to buy something"
the farmer continued, "and so l want
this space reserved for me. That will
save my running to town every time
| have an advertisement to insert. Re-
gular advertising is the sort which gets
results"
That editor is losing no opportunity
to point out that in one very real sense
a farmer is a business man and can
promote his business by intelligent
systematic advertising.

Burleson Not To Blame

Several Lamar business Institutions
were very noticeably shy of mail for
several days last week and the first
of this, but of course they just thought
the Burle5oEized system was running
true to form and they would get their
mail in time. However, for once Burle-
son wasn't to blame. Some boys had
conceived the idea of watching for
business men to leave their keys m
the boxes carelessly and then take pos
session of them and have access to their
mail. 1t worked very successfully un-
til Officers Rhodenbaugh and Harden
set decoy for them and took them in
along with fine assortment of keys
and some checks and private letters.
Much other important mail had been
destroyed ard it will be much trouble
to set all the matters right. Some
men are a little more careful with
keys, however.

WHAT HAPPENED TO SUGAR
Facts Gradually Leaking Out as To
The Cause of High Sugar
Prices.

While it has been generally known
sugar was due to the shortage of cane
sugar in the West Indies and to the
failure of the administration to take
over the crop when it was offered at
very reasonable figure, it is just
coming to light that it was the in
terference of the Washington officials
that caused much of the shortage. The
fact is gradually seeping through the
various investigation channels that
agitators of the American Federation
of Labor were carried to Porto Rico
and other islands by Secretary Daniels
of the navy free of charge in gov
ernment ships, and with the prestige
thus given them as presumable rep
resentatives of our government they
succeeded in organizing the cane labor
ers into unions, starting strikes and all
kinds of trouble. Many leres of cane
were destroyed by fire, much moro
was lost through inability to harvest
it, and even the mills could not get
sufficient labor to handle all that was
In Santo Domingo alone
the shortage was estimated at three
million pounds daily and in Porto Rico
several times that amount. 1t was this
shortage coming at time when all
the world was needing sugar that
boosted the price to the limit. 1t is
asserted by the growers there that
without the backing given them by the
navy department these agitators could
not have created any disturbance
their labor whatever. but Mr..
Gompers has not been running affairs
at Washington for nothing.
