FARM BUREAU PICNIC
Largely Attended at DemInss Grove
In Arlington Tuesday.


Between one hundred seyenty.fye
and two hundred people attended the
Farm Bureau basket picnic at Dem
ngs Grove In Arlington Tuesday,
Donnelly's orchestra was in atten
dance and furnished music during
the day.
Rev, George S. Mills told some of
the history OF Bennington county in
an interesting manner. Miss Flea
nor Sibley told three very interesting
stories to the children. These were
not only enjoyed by the children but
by the older folks as we'll Miss Sara
ClegAorn then gave "reminiscences Of
the valley, which proved to be an en-
joyable and instructive topic for all.
For the younger people there was a
pie contest and cracker eating con
test The first was to see who could
eat the most pie and in the latter
those partaking in the contest had to
eat two dry crackers and then whistle
and see how many crackers they
could eat during the allotted time
Both contests were won by the same
boy, a resident OF Arlington.
Lemonade was served by the girls
of the Pleasant Valley club and the
members of the Battenkill club sold
ice cream.
The day was ideal for such an out
ing and, as there were many othel
attractions in the vicinity Tuesday
the attendance was considered yer!
good II was evident that all who at
tended spent more than an enjoyaOl,
day and hope that the Farm Bureau
win hold another picnic of this k'nt
IN the near future.

A Boc.t for Bean Crops.

Now III the time for MS to change our
methods of farming and plant lots Of
corn, velvet and SOY beans, sweet po-
tatoes. and cane for syrup, raise plenty
OF hogs and grow good garden. Show
ME the farmer who has there things
at home and will show YOU a man
who will get by whether cotton
sells or not
Our main trouble Is that we have
planted our lands to cotton so long
that 1t will not make a profitable crop
even at good price.
Our average for the past five years
is about bale to five acres. Now, the
first thing to do is to build up our
soil. and this Is quickly done By plant
ing beans.
suggest we plant our thin lands to
one row Of cotton and one row Of SOY
beams. They grow well together. This
will Improve our land 80 per cent and
fatten all stock during the fall. One
row Of corn ana one row Of velvet
beams win keep stock fat all winter.
These crops can be worked with less
labor, because 1t requires less hoeing
What is the farmers debt to-day
1t Is what he eats and what he feeds
his horse. You can raise these things
cheaper than you can buy them.
F / have made arrangements fol
the different beans that we need to bt
handled in Shreveport ut reasonable
prices. II. s. BURT,
