COUNTY CONTEST
Planned to be Held in Ellsworth
Friday, October IL,

Planned to be Held in Ellsworth
Friday, October IA.
The county contest of the boys
and girls clubs of Hancock county
will be held on Friday, Oct. IA, at
Hancock hall, Ellsworth. This year
it will be a one-day program. The
change from a two-days contest to
one is made on the suggestion of
several of the club leaders, due to
the fact that it will be much easier
for the boys and girls, as most of
them come in hired cars or with
their parents, if they can come in
the morning and go home in the
evening, rather than be in Ellsworth
parts of two days and have the cars
make two trips. The railroad ia
cilities are so bad now that it will
be practically impossible for any to
come on the train this year.
Plans of the contest will be sent
to the various club leaders at an
early date. Percival T. Baxter,
governor of Maine, is slated as one
Of the speakers of the day. In the
morning the program will be COM
posed of judging contests by both
boys and girls. The judging will
be on potatoes, poultry, canning
and sewing articles. Prizes will be
offered for this in the same smanner
that other prizes are awarded.
Arrangements are being made for
banquet to be served either at
noon or at night; just when has not
been definitely decided. Prof A. l..
T. Cummings, University of Maine,
well known to the boys and girls of
the county, will act as toast-master
The contest will be held in Hancock
hall, in Ellsworth, the use of which
has been extended to the boys and
girls free of charge, by the city gov
eminent.

arranged and it is hoped that every
club member who finishes his pro-
ject and his story, will be in at
tendance. All stories and records
are due on October z. The exhibit
must be in Ellsworth a few days
previous to the contest in order to
be set up and judged. Club mem
bers are asked to keep in close
touch with their local leaders next
month, and be sure their records
are up to date, their stories COM
plete, and get from their local
leader further plans for the contest.
The six banks of Hancock county
co-operated with the Farm Bureau
to the extent of offering $500 for
prizes. An official from one of
these banks will present the prizes,
which will be in the form of savings
books with the amount of the prize
credited to the club member en-
tered.
Mrs. w. B. Stanley, county pro-
ject leader of the boys and girls
clubs, is working very earnestly to
make the contest a success. Mrs.
Stanley will act as chairman of the
contest. Lester A. Shibles, State
leader of boys and girls clubs, will
be present during the contest.

ASSIST NATURE
BY CULTIVATION
Corn, Potatoes and Beans Re-
spend to Attention Given
Them

Proper cultivation now is a big fac
tor i'll determining the yield of our
crops at the end Of the growing sea-
son. Cultivation etermineS whether
the plant gets good or poor begin
ming, Corn needs a great deal of cul-
tivation, but potatoes respond to cul-
tivation even more than corn.
The corn yield will vary all the way
from a few bushels to one hundred
bushels an acre, depending on the Gull
tivatiOn given it. Other crops will be
similarly affected. If the ground be-
comes baked and loses its moisture, the
crops will suffer. If weeds are allowed
to grow, they will steal moisture and
food from the corn, beans, and potato
crops. Plenty of cultivation is what
these crops need.
Start CultivatOrs Early
As soon as the corn Is above the
ground. the cultfvat0rs should be work
ing. The first cultivation should be
quite deep, three or four inches. The
later civilizations should be shallOwer
in order not to harm the young root
let's that grow out from the sides of
the plants. To cultivate corn deep af-
ter the first cultivation is short sight
ed policy. \ great many of our farm
prs are cultivating potatoes before
they appear above the ground in or
der to pull the weeds and conserve
moisture.
No cultivated crop responds as read
lily to cultivation as potatoes. Like
corn, they must be frequently cult
waited to produce large yields.
Our crops have made an excellent
growth so far this year Let's help
nature to help us by giving the crops
the cultivation they need to produce,
better results.
