.PENNSYL VANIA FARM
PRODUCTION JUMPS

The Indiana plan of heavy fertiliz-
ing is strongly supported by recent
evidence gathered in Pennsylvania,
where one county which used an aver
age Of ton to farm more than the
rest of the state, exceeded the state
average in crop values per acre by 90
per cent or 500 an acre. This county,
Lancaster, produced crops valued at
S68 an acre.
Three selected Iowa counties pro-
duced crops averaging only $34 an
acre while the whole state Of Iowa,
commonly accepted as the greatest
agricultural state, has an average acre
production of value of only $31.
Yields in Lancaster county which
contributed to this high value included
a $57 bushel an acre corn yield and
215 bushels an acre of wheat. The
average for the whole state of Pennsyl
vania was 45.6 bushels for corn and
1876 bushels for wheat. The three
high Pennsylvania counties produced
25 per cent more corn and 80 per cent
more wheat than the rest of the state;
80 per cent more corn per acre thar
the three best counties and 81 per cent
more than the average for all the
counties in what is supposed to be the
best corn growing state in the union

activities in addition to vocation for
men.
Mrs. Oleson won the nomination
over two male opponents with a lead
of 1000 or more votes over her nearest
rival.
Born in Leseuer county, Minnesota

Will START SURVEY
HERE ON JULY | FOR
BARBERRY BUSHES

A survey for common and purple
barberry bushes which will extend to
all parts of Wayne and Randolph coun-
ties will be started July l, by R. H.
Rogers and D. Parker, agents OF the
United States department Of agricul-
ture and Purdue university. They will
be here until a thorough canvass Is
made Of the entire county.
These two barberries are. respons-
ible for the spread of the black stem
rust of wheat, oats, barley and rye In
the spring, and for that reason should
be destroyed. In fact the Indiana de-
partment of conservation has consider
ed the barberry to be such a serious
enemy to the grains that a recent rul-
ing requires its destruction.
This law does not include the JAP
anese barberry which is harness. The
latter is dwarfed. has smooth edged
leaves, has only one spine or thorn at
a Joint and bears its fruit singly or
In twos and is found on lawns. The
harmful varieties are larger, have
spiny leaves, have three-pronged
thorns, and bear their fruit IN punches
like currants. They are not native
plants but were brought here by set
tiers and sold by nurseries until re-
Gently, so that while originally grown
around dwellings. they have spread
and are growing wild in some locall'
ties now. Serious local epidemics that
have practically destroyed grain crops
have been traced to a single barberTy
bush IN a number of counties already
surveyed.
Confuse Leaf Rust
The leaf rust which Is abundant
yearly should not be confused Nith the
stem rust. The barberry is not re
spoosible for the leaf rust. No rem
edy IS known for 1t except the growth
OF resistant varieties. Removal Of the
barberry is an effective control for tbs
black stem rust.
All land owners and tenants, OF
whose farms or around whose home:
the common barberry is found, are
urged to remove it at once, as 1t !:
one Of the biggest detriments to sue
cessful wheat production. The depart
ment Of agriculture agents will worl
with all the farmers in the county ant
their cooperation in furtherfng thu
survey will be appreciated. The fell

ings should be reported to that offic

A TRIBUTE TO OUR TEACHER

The most successful term of school ever known in the Cliff, or Greenlaw school will close December 21.
 Never has Q teacher made good to greater degree than has our teacher, Miss Ella Hoffman. Ella is a gradu- ate from N. A. N. s. and a true Flag staff girl. She was born and lived all her live here. Last year she taught on Clear Creek and was very success ful and much loved there as she is wherever she goes.
 Not only has Ella been very true to her school, giving the full measure of life, strength and love, but she has given to the entire community. Nine to four did not make her day, but rather 7:30 to 5:30 until storms came, then to 4:30 or , o'clock.
 Scarcely a day passed that some Spanish mother did not come for help and advice in making a dress, trim ming a hat, feeding sick baby, cook ing new dish or choosing a piece of goods. Did she laugh? Did she say l have no time?
 No! She helped.
 l am glad to hear, and hope it is true, that Ella will be our teacher again next term and the children and parents all join me in my wish.
