COUNTY CLUB WORK STARTED

Word was received last week from
r. A. Turner. state leader of boys
and girls clubs, that Miss Albertine
Stenson had been appointed county
club leader for the present summer
This work is carried on entirely by
the state out of funds appropriated
by the state legislature for this pur-
rose. In counties where no provision
is made for carrying on club work a
sufficient amount is set aside to pro-
vide for part time leader.
AS Miss Stenson is still in school
at the Michigan Agricultural College
the organization work is being done
by Miss Helen Stenson.
In addition to the garden and pota-
to clubs, it is planned to organize two
calf clubs in the county, one at Skanee
and one at Keweenaw Bay. This pro-
ject is of especial interest to the old
er boys. The work consists of start
ing with a pure bred or grade calf
of some of the leading dairy breeds,
raising the calf to maturity, keeping
records of the cost of feed, labor, etc.
Some of our very best dairy sections
have been started in the business thru
the club work proving to the older
stock really pays.
There never was a better time to
secure a start in better potatoes than
this Spring. With potatoes prac-
+tically yours for going after them, a
great many of the farmers in the
county should arrange with some Of
their neighbors to secure some new
seed. Baraga county undoubtedly
produces some of the finest potatoes
grown in the upper peninsula and
there is no reason why nearly every
farmer in the county should not be
producing high grade of product.
Even though potatoes are very cheap
this Spring, they will not always be
like this. and the farmer who contin-
ues to plant his usual amount will be
the one who will win. .
A great many of the leading farm
ers in the county are treating their
seed potatoes this Spring. Briefly,
the treatment is:
Use fcur ounces Of corrosive subli-
mate TO thirty gallons Of water. Soak
uncut seed thirty minutes in this So
luton. After soaking four patches,
either make a new solution or add
one ounce of. corrosive sublimate to
each thirty gallons Of solution to keep
up the strength.
Caution-Corrosive sublimate is a
rank poison. Keep solution away
from children, live stoc. and chick
ems. Use only wooden containers and
better destroy these after using.
If you are interested in this treat
ment get in touch with the county
agent and he will help you in getting
started. Corrosive sublimate may be
secured at the local drug store.

Progressive Signs Noted
In Markets of the East,
Is Report Local Oil Man

Conditions in the eastern states are
cwing signs OF coming Improvement
and are in much better shape than
they have been for long time, states
L. Il. Jeffres, manager Of the y. l..
Amster properties in the local fields,
who returned last night from a tour
through the East which consumed
the past two weeks. Mr.. Jeffries
states that finance is loosened TO a
great extent and legitimate indus
tries are now able to secure monetary
aid to a greater degree than ever
with which to carry on operations.
Wildcat and stock enterprises do not
fare so well, however. and new es.
adjustments are experiencing some
difficulty in obtaining financial aid
with which TO start.
The rise in the cotton market has
acted as "A great stimulus in the East
as well as cotton raising sections OF
the country and as result the cotton
mills are all working overtime. Shoe
factories are also running extra time,
Other industries are still running at
loss than full capacity but show
signs of near future Improvement.
Mr.. Jeffries calls attention TO the
fact that the railroads with very few
exceptions have all reported profits.
Rents and clothing have decreased
IN price In the eastern states, with
the houseowners voluntarily cutting
the rents down to a marked degree.
Clothing is being sold at pre-war
prices
Food.stuffs have not as yet been cut
to an appreciable degree.
Commercial interests OF the east are
very optimistic regarding future con-
ditions, basing their belief on the fact
that there is shortage on hand in
all merchandise establishments due
to the hesitancy with which the
business men purchased goods while
prices Were on an unsettled basis.
The lowering of the quotations and
the more stable appearance which
they are beginning To assume has
tended TO re.establish confidence and
the big buying which is expected TO
result should bring the big expected
Improvement.
Mr.. Jeffries visited Boston. Chicago,
Portland. Me-, New York, and many
Of the other larger cities. He ex'
poets 10 return to Boston in about
three weeks for the purpose Of re.
turning to Ardmore with his family,
which Is now in the Massachusetts,
city.

before spring OF next year. but that
gradual Improvement of conditions in
general may be noted during the COM
