ERECTION OF PLANT
FOR TREATING SMUT
CONSIDERED AT EATON

EATON, O., July discussion of
the advisability of erecting a wheat
smut treating plant for cleaning smut
from seed wheat, will be the order of
business of the Preble county farm
bureau executive committee at its reg
ular monthly meeting in Eaton Sat
urday
Charles F. Williams, of Wayne coun-
ty, president of the Corn Growers as
ISOLATION of that county, has been
invited to address the committee. tell
ing of smut damage, and its elimina-
ton in Shelby and Rush counties, In
diana, through the establishment Of
treating plants.
Mr.. Williams, with the agricultural
agent of Wayne county and three
members of the farm bureau, made an
inspection tour by auto, through Shell
by and Rush counties, Indiana, to look
at treating plants and observe the re-
suits in the fields. Preble county farm
bureau members have seen serious
damage in places from wheat smut,
and, as they may consider erecting a
plant, desire first hand information
1t is probable also that the farm bu-
reau will consider the chinch bug sit
uation in the county, at least two
farms having been reported near New
Paris, and visited by the county agent
early Friday morning 1t is thought,
however, that chinch bugs are not
very serious in this county.

The Farm and The Farmer

are producing better than others. Also
some fields are much freer from weeds
and whitetop. 1t hasn't been n good
season for hay and has been even
worse for pastures.
A Real Wheat Crop.
A young man having a pair of

was all Uttered up with them
Good enough said We Bring

And we did The shocks were still

three pounds of Irvine to the acre to

Sam Lewis, a neighbor, beat him 10

however, is frequently used for small

The first threshing outfit in Wayne
county reported in action this season
is owned by Harris & Thompson, and
the first field of grain to be threshed IS
owned by R. Brown, living about one
half mile south of Webster, on the
Richmond pike Mr.. Brown began his
threshing on Thursday morning. 1t is
said that he has about 100 acres OF
wheat and that it is running a little
better than Is bushels, according to
measure and acreage estimates. We
understand that he sowed both Pool
and Russian Red wheat last fall. No
test has been made, as he is storing
the grain. 1t seems that the elevators
called were not particularly anxious
to buy, anyway, as he tells it, also he
feels confident of better prices for
wheat later on.
If any other farmer has done any
threshing in Wayne up to this time,
We have not learned of it. We are
further informed that Mr.. Brown has
been the very first to thresh on several
other occasions. Threshermen will get
busy in earnest on July 5.
First Corn to Tassel.
Corn is in tassel. No, no, not al
of it, but here and there one dis
covers tassels in we'll advanced fields
If you should happen to head south
west out of Centerville, enroute to the
old Caleb Jackson farm and on beyond
you may at least discover tasseling
corn in two fields along the way. The
first field TO attract attention is on the
Ernest Tremp place. Here is a lot Of
fine outstanding corn which was plant
ed in April. The next man to have
corn in tassel is Charles Marlatt, who
also planted in April. You may drive
a number of miles and not find two
| pieces of corn so far along, or standing
| so tall and robust. But even so yol
will be gratified to note sturdy growtI
and abundant promise of a real cofT
crop, albeit some fields show the effec
of late planting, but are now heading
skyward and making up for los
time.
Here and there you will also observe
that the farmer is haying. The crol
