ShOrthOrn and Durham Breeders Take
Noticp

| Due to the inclement weather max
/ ing it impossible for farmers to come
to the meeting last Friday will meet
| Saturday, March 18th at l PM. at the
County Agents Office
! 1t is very important that all Short
horn Durham breeders should come
cut to this meeting and do something
for the betterment of the breed.
Have You Your Clover Seed?
/ The county agent has a little Al
sike clover seed in his Office but out
side of that he viii gladly refer buy
ers to farmers that have some for sale,
However, get your seed early, before
/ 1t is too late. We must raise more
| clover to balance the ration and cut
down the high cost of protein fed.
| Crushed Limestone fer Vernon COun-
ty Farmers
/ Mr.. A. Christopherson, n. r. Hielter
and VIM. Lindemann have ordered two
carloads of crushed limestone through
the county agent. We need crushed
limestone by the trainload in Vernon
county Some farmers claim we have
| plenty lime rock in the county. That
| is correct, but have you stopped to con-
slider that it will cost you Just as much
to quarry the stone and get it crushed
as it viii to ship it in by railroad?
If you want to purchase some crush
ed limestone let the county agent know
your wants and he viii do all in his
ipower to get it shipped to your near
est r, r, station.
Nearly every farmer can afford to
/ buy carload of lime if he is within
reasonable distance from the railroad.
1t can be purchased for $500 per ton
laid down here at Viroqua, which is
reasonable.
The clay soils do not need as much
limestone, as rule, as do black prai-
RE soils. They require all the way
! from two to five tons per acre.
One reason why clover kills out so
easily is because the soil is sour or
acid. Crushed limestone will correct
this conditions and give increased yields
! in all crops. Get some crushed lime
stone.

With THE COUNTY AGENT
JERSEYS Jerseys Iersavs

Yes, We want more Jerseys in Yer
non county. Why? Because they are
a good dairy animal as good as can
be purchased. Not only that, but Yer
non county has the most Jerseys of
any county in the state. Let's keep
that record by buying more Jerseys.
We are not satisfied by being only the
Jersey center of the state but also the
Jersey center of the northwest. March

General Connor

ANTWERP, Jan. ALMOST $780,
100000 was realized from the sale of
American army stocks remaining in
France after the departure Of the
American army, said Brigadier General
w. D. Connor, chief OF staff of the
American Department of Supply, who
sailed to-day for America. General
Connor said he had estimated the value
of the stocks at $1,7O0, 100000, and de-
clared it would have cost $75, 100000 to
take the stocks back to America The
United States, therefore, received q
little less than SO cents on the dollar
for the supplies that were sold.
The selling Of army stocks was the
best thing the American government
could do, the general declared. Had
they been retailed in various countries,
great losses would have been entailed,
as the expense would have been heavy
