Farmers viii Help Starving Chinese.
Grant county people are going to
help the starving Chinese and keep
them alive until their next harvest.
Through the State Committee litera-
ture has been placed in the hands
of every farmer delivering milk or
cream to cheese factory, cOndens-
/ cry or creamery through their local
men, and if perchance you have not
received any, inquire at your factory
for it.
1t is proposed that every farmer
give one mornings cream or milk, or
one weeks eggs. Every farmer sure
ly wants to keep one Chinese from
starving until the next harvest as it
| only takes $500 to do it.
We are experiencing some very I'M
comfortable things in all business
lines this last year and especially so
| in the farm business, as everything
in the farm line is as low or even
lower than prewar prices, but many OF
i the things to be purchased are still
somewhat high in price. However,
with all our troubles and embarras-
| sing predicaments, we have plenty to
eat and wear and no one needs to go
hungry in Grant county.
| Therefore, it is our Christian duty
! to keep our Chinese brothers from
starving, which is duty we should
never fail to do. We have another
! good reason for wanting to feed our
Chinese friends and that is, that they
look to America for relief and con-
slider America their only reliable
! friend as Nation. We cannot afford
to allow our friendship to weaken.
Let it be said that Grant county
once more went cover the Top in
feeding the Chinese.
Spray YOnr Fruit Again
1t is now time to spray your fruit
trees again. Use lime sulphur and
! Arsenate of Lead one gallon of liquid
lime sulphur and one pound of pow
/ dered arsenate of lead to forty gallons
of water.
This spray should be applied care
fully, so that, the end of every bios
som is well covered with spray Of
! course, the tree must be sprayed from
every angle at every spray but parti-
cular pains should be taken to get
a good application into the calyx end
before the calyx closes, as eggs are
! layed in there and they must be COW
cred so when the small worm starts
eating he will get some poison and
no more damage.
Club Work Is Spreading
Mr. Earl Cooper, Assistant State
Club Leader, spent Monday, Tuesday
and Wednesday in the County assist
ing the County Agent in Club Work.
The Fair associations are very
much interested in club work and
are willing to give any number of
premiums if the boys and girls will
only take advantage of them.
Several especially attractive premi-
UNI lists will be given by the differ
ent fair boards in the county for
boys and girls club work, and boys
and girls should line UP their project
and report it to the County Agent.
Wyalusing Farmers Will Analyze Soil
Five Wyalusing farmers near
Hazelton are going to have their soil
analysed. They are Percy Harris, w.
M. Hamilton, Chas. Willard, Milo
Clark and w. S. Weed.
They are going to have their an
alysis made at the same time and in
that way get the reduced rate.
1t is very good thing to have soil
analysed, especially if commercial
fertilizers are being used or one an
I tlClpdC0S Tie use VI IHC1A me AOo-
son for it is that commercial fertili-
ders are high priced and it is a loss
of money to buy any mixed fertilizer
you do not need. A soil analysis will
tell you what you need and money
will be saved in not buying unneces-
sary fertilizer
The County Agent wishes to get
groups of farmers in several locali
ties to arrange for this test in the
near future as it will mean money
saved in buying fertilizer
Send a sample of your soil to the
County Agents Office and have it
tested for lime content.
County Labor Bureau.
The County Agents office should be
used for labor bureau, and anybody
wanting work on farm can obtain
it by leaving his name and address
at the County Agents Office with
qualifications and references.
Farmers wanting farm labor should
notify the County Agent of their needs
and he will get them in touch with
men wanting work.
