ing. This latter includes a new con-
ception of the legitimate necessities
.of the railroads, and especially a
hearty cooperation in campaign
having for its object the prompt un-
loading and dispatch of freight cars.
The matter of increasing rolling stock
to the extent indicated by the figures
quoted is something that cannot be
accomplished in hurry. First of all,
the roads must find a way to obtain
the funds with which to pay for the
new equipment when it is delivered;
and in the second place, the filling of
so long an order is going to require
many months if not years. But there
is one measure of partial relief that
is Immediately available, and this is
the prompt unloading and loading of
cars, SO that the wheels may be kept
in motion practically all the time.
Any shipper who under present cir
cumstances keeps a car idle for a
single hour beyond the minimum of
time necessary for its release is lack
ing both in good business sense and
in true loyalty to the countrys inter-
ests.-EX.
The Farmington times. (Farmington, St. Francois County, Mo.) 1905-1926, 1920-06-04

we believe in it implicitly. 1t is this:
! That the average country merchant
carries too large a stock and has
I therefore too small turnover.
1 He may not always carry too large
"a stock in NOR ~ value, but in most
cases too large a stock in variety. This
is more particularly true of the gro
Gerry department but the other depart
ments are not free from it.
We note that the advantages of the
chain stores lie in the fact that they
purchase in large quantities limited
variety of goods and by selling at
small margin enjoy a large turnover
IA more liberal proft-together with
a saving to the consumer.
And so we predict great change in
country merchandising in the not dis
tant future-at least as soon as men
with vision and faith get into the
\ country mercantile business and when
that time comes it will make very lit
/ tie difference to the merchant whether
| his store is located in a village or at
some cross roads point one, two or
three miles away. He will have the
business. However, we believe, the
village will be his logical location be-
cause Of the convenience of freight,
express and mail as well as other
worthwhile advantages.
Such a merchant will realize the
value of the local paper and the read
er of the local paper will in turn ap-
preciate the offices of such a mer-
chant.
hot
For then the local paper will enter
upon a sphere Of increased usefulness
--service-the watchword of every
editor of a country publisher worthy
of the name.-News, Onsted, Mich.

OUTBREAK OF ARMY WORMS

During the last few days, some re-
ports of army worms have been COM
ing into this office. In some locali-
ties they are very numerous.
They assume the army habit and
march en- masse, consuming all in their
path. Just now, they are in the clo-
yer and alfalfa fields, cutting off the
young shoots of alfalfa and stripping
the leaves of clover, together with the
heads. The caterpillars or worms are
from one to one and one-half inches
long, of a dark gray or dingy black
color, with three narrow, yellowish
stripes above, and slightly broader
and darker one on each side, quite re-
sembling cut-worrns, to which they
are nearly related.
AS much damage as they seem to
be doing in some fields of clover and
alfalfa, it is advisable to cut the hay
as soon as the weather is at all suita-
BILE. The hay should be cut as close
to the ground as possible. After the
hay is removed, take a roller, brush
drag, log drag, harrow, or disk-har-
row, and go over the bayfield, sew
eral times. Large numbers Of the
worms can thus be killed. It is very
important that this be done oven if
such operations seem to damage the
crop a little. 't Vi -.
Also, burrows should be made be-
tween the fields where the crop is in
Tested and between other fields con-
tanning oats, corn, or hay, ETC., as the
army worms take almost everything
in their path. If the rain ceases so
that the dust furrow can be made, this
is an excellent barrier. Two or three
burrows may be necessary to stop
them, Where the worms are massed
in burrows, they may be destroyed
| by spraying them with pure kerosene
or crude petroleum.
In case that these methods of con-
troll fail, make a poisoned bran mash
AMI scatter this broadcast over the
field late in the evening. The poison
bran mash is made by using:
Coarse bran 10 pounds, Paris green
or arsenate of lead l pound, oranges
or lemons 2, Molasses 2 quarts, water
1-2 gallons.
Mix bran and poison together dry
then add water and other ingredients
Stir mixture thoroughly. A moist
crumbly mash is desired. Do not make
it sloppy. Always sow broadcast.
