SURE THEY KNOW
Retail Public Ledger

There is a merchant in our town
Who thinks he's %wondrous wise;
He SCOTS at those who spend hard
cash
Their goods to advertise.
He mocks the ad man to his face,
you're talking through your hat,
Cause everybody everywhere
Knows where my store is at"
Of course most people vaguely know
That Jones conducts a store
Out of the beaten paths where goes
The cream of trade no more.
But what he tells in his small place,
What goods he has on shelf
They cannot say, because old Jones
Keeps that all to HIMSELF
And that is why the blinded man
Has troubles, now, and woe,
And why his sales are less than they
were
Some twenty years ago.
Sure everybody knows where Jones
Sits glum in his easy chair.
They also know where the graveyard
is,
But they are not focking therel

every living bit of Vegetation would
be taken by them. The policy of the
committee in charge of this work
was to the effect that a grasshopper
campaign benefited all farmers
whether they were directly affected
by hoppers OF not and also benefited
business and commercial enterprises
whether the grasshoppers were eat
ing on them or not. Accordingly a
tax was put according to the state
law on all taxable property in the
county. One and one-fourth mills
of the farm bureau levy is to pay
bills outstanding caused by the grass
hopper campaign last

Z. Community organization in a
large number of cases has created a
better spirit of fellowship, under
standing and cooperation among
neighbors of the communities.
Farmers Short Courses
1. Five three-day short courses
were held in Froid, Culbertson, Balm
vile and Wolf Point. These schools
started in the afternoon and contin-
ued through the evening. In most
towns the active work and coopera-
ton of the committeeman, cooperat-
ing with the schools made these short
courses very successful from an at
tendance standpoint.
Community Picnics
Farmers community clubs the
past summer held a number of pic
MICS. Most of these picnics were
strictly recreational affairs. In some
cases the extension department fur
nished speakers who talked on
problems of the most Importance.
Recreational Programs
A large number of community
programs consisting of moving pic
lures, orchestra, band, instrumental
and vocal concerts were furnished
rural communities. Although most
of these affairs were strictly recrea-
t%ional, where possible reels linked
with project work were
shown. The real reason hat a service
was done in this respect was because
the older people in the rural COM
munities are hungry for recreation
this type and because a large per
of the children have never wit
messed such attractions.

to have a Home Demonstration agent

LIVESTOCK REQUIRE SALT

Salt is required by all animals.
The United States Department of
Agriculture says that tn edairy COW
requires an ounce or more a day,
and, while she should be given all
she needs, she should not be forced
to take more than she wants. 1t is
best therefore, to give only a small
quantity on the feed, and to place
rock salt in the boxes in the yard,
where the stock can lick it at will

Anyone who desires to get more
details IN any of the above project
work can do so by calling at the
county agents Office where a com
plete record of all project work is
kept. The county agent will also lie
glad to go over this work with any
one interested in it . 1t shall be the
policy of the Farm Bureau and the
county extension work to continue
to follow the same constructive pro-
gram of work, taking care of emer-
gency work first, production second
and distribution third, following a
sane and business like program.
The county budget calls for S4,-
