Dear Sir-We are in receipt Of
yours Of the Both, in which you ask
us to reduce shipment of coal from
two cars to one car per week.
Now, of course, we want to handle
this matter in any way you suggest,
but you doubtless know that at the
present time all of the Illinois, Indi-
ana and large part of Alabama
and other coal fields are closed by
strikes and that already he railroads
have put in drastic regulations and
will not allow any coal to be billed to
anything other than their own CON.
panv other railroads or public
utilities and we are very much of
the opinion that uless the strike Is
settled pref Y soon that they will
change their billing to not al
lowing any coal to be shipped
to anything other than themselves.
Even after The strike is settled
the loss of coal by the strike is
going to be so great that we are of
the opinion that the country is going
to see the greatest coal shortage the
country has ever known and would
urge you not to ask us to discontinue
shipments or reduce to one car per
week but TO allow us 70 continue
shipping you at the rate of two or
three cars ner week and vardinr
somewhere near vour plant even if
it is expensive and inconveniert.
OF course, If YOU do not want to do
this and still want us = roduoo
shipments to one car ner week, please !
wire US st our expense upon recent
Of this letter and we will immediately !

Silo as Important in South as North.
Some few Southern farmers have
the idea that the silo is distinctively
a Northern institution, designed to
help the Northern stock and dairy
farmer carry on his business at a
profit during the long cold Northern
winters. With price Of feed soaring
higher and higher and the price Of
beef just holding its own, the mod
ern farmer is forced to turn to a
cheaper food and instinctivelv he
turns to the silo. II is not a North
ern institution any more than corn
is Northern crop, says H. B. Bliss
rural engineering specialist, Divis-
ion Of Extension.
In the spring before pastures are
good it supplies the needed green
food During dry weather in summer
and fall it keeps the milk cows IN
to their standard and furnishes lust
the feed that is needed for those
cattle that are going into the fat
tening lot. Then. in winter. with lit |
eAS VI IN ptiobuIC DdU RAINY weather. |
and soft or frozen ground, the siIo
furnishes a succuleut food that is
needed to keen up the flow Of the |
dairy COW and keep the stock grow
ing. They not only eat it, but thew
like it keep in good flesh on It. and
the milk cows continue, to milk longer
on it than thev possibly could on dry
feed, beet puln. hulls. seed or any
thing else Of the same cost.
The South can not begin to supply
her own market with butter The
onpOrtunity for dairying in the South
was never greater than now. The
conditions for dairvine are ideal
here. 1t is a better dairy country
on the average than most Of the
dairy sections of the North There
is splendid market for milk and
to conduct a successful dairy farm
IN the South as elsewhere.

Club Work Boosted BY Organizations
In appreciation of what club work

munity, the Sango Community Or
ganization Of Montgomery county,
recently voted an appropriation Of
$40 to be given to the winners. in the
corn and pig clubs this fall. Club
members of this community. under
the leadership of G. L. Richardson.
are doing things. Twelve Of the club
boys have planned to go to the club
camp in August. This camp will
last four days. The Commercial and
Rotary Clubs of GAINESVILLE have
agreed to furnish tents and cots for
the boys free of charge. This will
make the expenses of the BOYS very
small and will enable many to attend
that might otherwise not be able to.
Recreation and instruction will be
blended in this meeting giving the
boys an opportunity to have regular
picnic and at the same time to learn
something. The boy scouts of
Clarksville will meet with the club
bows for a part of their program
and picnic will be held. It is be-
lieved that this viii create a splendid
spirit between the bows Of the farm
and those of the city. County Agri-
cultural Agent Harmon says that
nothing has helped to interest bows in
club work more than these camps
and the annual picnic.

Lawrence County Men Believe IN
Lime.
G. C. Wright, county agricultural
agent in Lawrence county, states as
evidence that the farmers of Law
renee county believe in lime for ag-
ricultural purposes that three car
loads have been ordered within the
last 10 days and judging from in
quiries throughout the county the
amount used this year viii be double
that Of last.
One farmer used six tons on his
clover last year and he is so well
pleased with results that he wants a
carload this fall. Another farmer in
his county used 10 tons last year
and this year he is planning to use
30. Still another progressive farmer
of the county will spread 40 tons
this year on his farm and only re-
Gently he stated that he believed this
would be worth more to his farm
than any other one thing that he
had done to improve it.
Lime corrects acidity in The soil
improves the physical condition:
renders clay soils more open and
porus, thereby making them easier
to cultivate and easier to drain. Lime
stimulates the decomposition of or
ganic matter in the soil and of ma
nures added, enabling plant food to
become more available. However, |
lime is not a plant food and should |
not be considered as fertilizer.
There is tendency for acid to form
IS crops are grown on land. In order
% correct this lime is used. When
'lover refuses to grow with other
conditions favorable, it is a pretty
rood indication that the land needs
ime. Under the direction of Mr..
Wright the farmers Of this county
re ordering their lime comparatively
nd are making a nice saving on it.

Status of Wool Market.
Much has been said recently by
those purchasing wool about the de-
moralization OF the wool market.
That there is no market and that
prices are as low as 10 to IL cents Is
a statement frequently made in re-
cent weeks todowa farmers. Accord
ing to County Agent w. A. Buchanan
the true state of affairs has been
greatly exaggerated, and the system
of handling wool this year is much
different from that of few years
ago. Practically all the corn belt

He is exceedingly CONSPICUOUS in
coloring. noisy. clumsy in flight, and
he likes the vicinity Of man. All
these are things that are drawbacks
to long life In birds, yet the redhead
is one of our commonest birds
Perhaps the explanation lies in their
nesting habits. Their nest is a deep
hole excavated in telephone or
telegraph pole. or failing that in a
dead tree. 1t is not nowadays con-
sidered strictly fashionable in wood
pecker society to live In trees, it Is
much more correct to live in q pole
erected by man.
Most woodpeckers are prevailingly
black and white and wear the bonnet
rouge on their heads. The females
of the downy and the hairy, and tho
young of al species are all that do
not have the touch OF red on their
heads. The red head has a whole
crimson helmet.
No poet ever sang about the wood
pecker-he is a coarse. loud, bullying
sort-not at all a. bird to take a
poets fancy, and scandal whispers
that he sometimes eats the eggs of
other birds, and has other ruffanly
habits. But the government bulletins
of the United States and Canada
think very we'll indeed Of him and
give long lists of beetles and borers
and other pests with terrifying
names and evil tendencies that are
grateful to woodpecker palates. The
bulletins treat. with great respect so
good friend of the farmer and the
forester.
The red headed woodpecker is
found all over the United States east
Of that sharp dividing line for bird
life. the Rockies, but is found in
more abundance in the midwest than
in the east. Even here he Is bit
uneven in distribution, and is some
times a summer visitor and more
rarely resident.
If you like trees, encourage these
expert tree surgeons to remain about
your place.

states are making arrangements to
collect wool thru the various divi-
sionY of the National Fleece Wool
Growers Association and having it
stored at market centers to be held
until market conditions are satisfac-
tory.
Mr.. Buchanan says there has been
much Misrepresentation as to fluctu-
ations of the market, and it is not
true that there Has been heavy de-
cline. 1t is the fine Delaine Marine
wool that is off and not the Shrop-
shire that is produced in Iowa.
Pooling in Large Centers.
The reason for no market Is ex-
pooled In large centers and some time
will be required for proper grading
and consigners will not sell until 1t is
placed in marketable form accord
ing to grades. Wool buyers certainly
will not buy pound if they believe
there is no market for wool Farmers
with corn to sell have not been able
to cash 1t for months. The same is
true of live stock.

ers' Association netted over $1,000 b.,
, consigning wool to the National
Wool Warehouse and Storage Com
pany in 1919. The association has
more, than doubled its membership
during the pastHtwo months. 1t is the
desire OF the members to sell m
honest package for an honest price
and they are willing to take their
chance when the wool is put MP for
sale
Wool growers residing across the
Marshall county line who trade in
Marshalltown or Vicinity will be ad :
mitted to the association provided il
is more convenient for them to do so
than to join in their own county. The
main object is to help those who raise
sheep to have better market tor
their wool and to give encourag cement
for raising better flocks as result.
