Living Beyond Means

According to my information, =
Secretary Payne states, the March
consumption of crude petroleum ex-
ceeded that of year ago by nearly
II million barrels, This single
months record of A million bar
rels means that the United States
is now using more oil each month
than the world used in the whole
wear of 1885. These are facts that
must be faced by every citizen who
uses any petroleum product, wheth-
er fuel oil, gasoline, or lubricating
oil. and these figures likewise raise
questions of public policy, for in
this matter of oil the United States
is certainly living beyond its
means"

Activities Of County Agents

A recent report issued on the work
of the county agricultural agents
shows that those men are busy. The
figures show that agents in 40 counties
spent grand total of six days away
from their jobs during April, held 227
meetings attended by over 10000
farmers, and visited 1,4O0 farms. AL
though almost twice as much time
was spent at the office, over 5000 calls
were made by farmers on the agents,
over 1000 circular letters and 5000
other letters were sent out and 40
articles by county agents were pub
lished during the month.
In northern counties land clearing
operations and better bull and live
stock campaigns took up much of the
agents time. A saving of from $4,000
to $4,000 was made in each of the
counties by the action of the county
agent in buying explosives for land
clearing and fertilizers in carload lots
for the farmers.
Farmers who have the services Of a
good county agent are indeed for
tunate. There are few counties in
Wisconsin in which county agent
cannot render service which offsets
many times its cost. We would prob
ably be safe in saying that there is
not single county where county
agent is employed that does not get
more than value received for the
money that is spent in maintaining
the work. To spend one day in the
field with one of these public service
men is enough to convince one of the

Girls Lost in Storm

There was great connection at the
Eagle River Fishing and Shooting
Club at Phelps the other day when
Miss Emma Belle Stutz and her chum
Miss Marion McGurren failed to make
their appearance at the supper hour.
They left the club grounds after
breakfast to fish in Smoky lake and
were caught insthe terrific rain and
wind storm which broke loose there,
and except for their courage and per-
severance might have persisted.
Both young ladies are guests Of
Mrs. Robert E. Maypole, prominent
Chicago society woman at her beauti-
full lodge situated on the lubpreserye.
When they found thai they could not
combat the waves they pulled for the
shore, and after tossing about for a
number of hours in the storm, they
finally succeeded in Bleaching their
small craft on the edge of the. heavy
woods at Crescent Point. Without
any idea where they were going, they
started out in the thick forest to find
shelter. Except for the occasional
paths made by deer and bears. tile
girls were compelled to blaze their
own trail through the thick under
brush. Drenched and chilled to the
bone, with their clothing torn to
shreds, they reached lone trapper's
hut located five miles from where
they first set out.
In the meantime searching party
went out from the club, led by
Chicago's leading west side business
man and politician. j. Z. COUNSEL,
President Geo. J. Lawton, and Frank
Hauseman, who is also guest at the
Maypole house party. They enlisted
the aid of Emil and Matt Watilo.
Together these two natives started
to the rescue of beauty in distress,
Emil by land and Matt by sea. Both
arrived at the trapper's hut about the
same time and found the girls
wrapped in bear skins seated at the
festive board before great log fire,
having Cafe Klotch with their new
~ found Finnish friend. They took
the girls back to the Watilo farm
house; and awaiting them there were
the mothers of these two heroines

automobile, which is manufactured
by HI. G. Stutz of Indianapolis, Mr..

to the club house, where they found
the entire membership awaiting
them, who had given them up for lost.

MARKET FOR POTATOES
Corn Belt States Looking for
Seed Potatoes From
North Wisconsin

Stocks of northern grown seed pota-
toes are being relied upon more and
more by the farmers in the corn
belt states Professor Fitch of Ames,
one of the students of potato culture
| in the corn belt, has recently an
nounced that he is strongly in favor
of imported stock from northern
delds to be used in Iowa. He says
that in some of the regions of the
Mississippi Valley states farmers and
gardeners do not fully know the vir
tues of northern grown seed potatoes.
Were this knowledge more universal
the purchase Of northern seed stock
would develop into great business
business which would be of equal
benefit to both parties to the deal.
Professor Fitch is making it clear
to Iowa farmers this year that the
summers of 1918 and 1919 were hard
on the Vitality Of seed potatoes grown
in the corn belt. He insists that pota-
toes grown in the "hot soils Of corn
country summers do not make near
ly as good seed stock as northern po-
tatoes. He remarks that Iowa seed
was not reliable this spring, and adds
that the stocks from northern points,
planted in Iowa are making greater
Roadway than anticipated. If present
conditions continue Professor Fitch
expects that the northern stocks will
produce four or five times the weight
of tubers grown by the Iowa seed of
the same variety. He concludes by
saying that the sooner and more COM
pletely Iowa farmers adopt the prac-
tice of using northern seed the better
it will be.
Wisconsin growers of standard seed
potatoes have formed an alliance with
a prominent potato firm at Chicago,
and seed will be shipped there and
held in storage below the frost line.
Wisconsin is watching the midwest
ern potato belt with anticipation of
new markets for seed grown on our
better FARMS. on the virgin soils of
Upper Wisconsin counties.
Heretofore, most of Wisconsin seed
trade has been with Triumphs for the
far south and southwest, but ever
since the certified sales organization
was formed new territory nearer home
is being sought for trade. Indiana,
Ohio, Illinois and Iowa will soon come
to US for northern grown supplies.
Like any other business built on con
fdence the seed potato industry must
insist upon quality and freedom from
disease. Every shipper who allows
northern stocks to go out regardless
of inspection and standard quality is
striking at vital spot in this new
business. There is q tWo-fold lesson in
this news from Iowa for our potato
growers. It is message of hope and a
note of warning. In our rush to get
new markets in the corn belt let us
proceed on the same successful bust
ness principles that have built up our
present, reputation. The Wisconsin
Farmer

Severe Storm Last Night

Eagle River was struck by the hard
est electrical storm last night that
has visited it for years. An immense
amount of water was later followed by
a violent but brief downpour of hail.
The R. G. Ziebell residence was struck
by lightning, doing small amount OF
damage The display of embarrassed
electricity was grand but terrifying.
In fact, number of couples who were
staying up late began saying their
prayers as soon as the lights went out,
which shows what hard storm it

Notice to Farmers.

| wish to notify farmers
who are intending to have
clover hulled this fall that
it will be necessary for them
to get clover bunchers for
their mowers in order that
there will be no danger of
getting gravel stone and
other injurious matter to a
huller mixed with the clover
as often happens when cut
and raked. Very small stone
will ruin the cylinder Of the
huller as we'll as causing de-
lay and expense in getting
repairs. Get a clover bunch
er for your mower.

Spray for Leaf-hOppers

The leaf-hOppers are again COM
mencing to put in their appearance
on some of the early potatoes and it
has been found that spraying with
Bordeaux mixture at intervals checks
their injury. Although this spray is
not an absolute control for the leaf
hoppers, many farmers have found
that frequent Bordeaux spraying aids
considerably in keeping the hoppers
from the plants Following is Bor-
dealx mixture formula:
Dissolve lbs. of blue vitriol with
boiling water in a stone jar or wooden
pail and dilute with 25 gallons of
water. Mix or lbs. of slaked lime
to a thick paste and dilute with
Is gallons of wafer Then pour these
two solutions together into Barrel.
About two or three pounds of poison
can be added to the so gallons of Bor-
deaux mixture if potato bugs are nu-
merous, thereby saving an extra
spraying.
