BUELL. WRITES FROM
 FAR OFF AUSTRALIA
Former Local Young Man Says Busi- ness Depression Is Being
 Felt There .

That the industrial depression or menace of German industrial compe- tition is not peculiar to the United States, is evidenced by a letter receiv- ed today from Australia. Albert A. Buell, formerly of this city, but now located at Abbotsford, Victoria, Aus tralia, writes in part, as follows; un- der date of February 5:
 Things are not any too busy here just at present. There is a heavy trade depression and German goods are being dumped here via London and Brussels; also Belgian goods are landed here at price below what we can make them for, even after paying the duty, which is very heavy.
 The Germans are getting all the Java trade and are pouring capital into that country. Java is only about five days off the Australian coast. As a matter of fact the Germans are gaining much headway throughout all the Dutch colonies in this part of the world and their influence is being felt again throughout the far east.
 'The Australian commonwealth parliament is having some wild ses- sions these days, but l don't think they know just where they stand themselves.
 'I suppose all of the above condi- tions exist in a greater or lesser de- gree in all parts just now"
 Mir. Buell., in another paragraph of his letter, calls attention to the sum- mer weather now prevailing in Aus tralia. At the time of his writing, he added, it was 106 in the shade.

MERCHANT RETIRING
Joseph Ryan, Pioneer Harness and Leather Goods Merchant Selling Out His Stock.

One of New Britain's oldest busi- ness landmarks is due to go with the decision of Joseph Ryan, the harness, trunk and leather goods merchant to sell out his entire stock. He has been located in this city for the past 30 years, most of the time on Main street. He has no definite plans for the future but has stated that he might go into the automobile repair business.
 Mir. Ryans first store was on Main street where now stands the Hotel York He was in partnership with Joseph Moore, one of the pioneers in the harness business in the city. He later moved to a store on the west side of Main street next to the rail- road tracks near where the United Cigar store now stands, and some time after moved to the Hicks block on West Main street. Just before Mir. Moore's death, MT. Ryan bought out his share of the business, and for the past 10 years he has been the sole proprietor of the business and has been located at 43 Main street..
 Mir Ryan is a well known resident

Armstrong, 3. C.-Preparations for
a heavy crop of celery are being made
here. Hotbeds, in which the spring
plants for the early harvest are to be
grjJwn, are under construction, and
the first seeding will be done within
a short time. Shipments of the 1921
celery crop, which was the heaviest
in six years, started on July 4. The
gross returns from this crop averaged
about S700 an acre.
Montreal, Quebec.-Several hundred
thousand pelts, including polar, griz-
Fly and black bear skins, coyotes,

Clubs Use
DISEASE FREE seed

Because 225 boys in Butler county,
Pennsylvania, showed that the use
of disease-free seed potatoes last
year resulted in increasing the yield
one-third, Butler county farmers have
ordered ten carloads of d~isease-free
seed potatoes for planting this year.
The boys were enrolled in eleven po-
tato clubs conducted in cooperation
with the United States Department
of Agriculture and the State College
OF Agriculture. Each boy purchased
one bushel of d~isease-free potato
seed brought from New York, which
was planted beside home grown seed
TOR comparison and to demonstrate
the value of disease-free seed. Field
meetings were conducted in August
to shcw diseases and differences in
appearance under growing condi-
tons.
In October the potatoes were dug
and club demonstration meetings
were held. It was found that the
d~isease-free seed was responsible for
about one-third of the increase in
yield over the homegrown seed, the
other t~wO-thirds being due to better
cultural methods.
Sixty-five of the boys secured ar
increase Of 80 per cent with disease
free seed, as compared with their
fathers homegrown seed. Each boy
was given a bushel Of d~isease-free
seed.

HELENA, March S.-Who is the

Who is the best relay rider? The
cleverest and swiftest sheep shearer?
What two miners are the best team
Of hard rock guys? What's the
name of the sheepan that owns the

The answer to these and a score
of other questions is an open bet at
the present time, but if the plans of
the new state fair advisory board
are carried out, as decided upo1 al
its first meeting in Helena recently,
the answers will be given at the Mon

$3.50, inclusive, and the acclaimed

VARIETY OATS
give HIGH YIELD

The production of bodybuilding va
rieties of oats for various conditions
has been the principal problem in
connection with the breeding of
spring and winter oats during she
past year by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture in cooper
alton with state agricultural expert
ment stations. Practically all of
those so far produced have been pure
lines of selected from commercial va
~rieties, but efforts are also being
made to combine the different quail
ties of good strains by hybridization.
Studies are being carried on in co.
operation with cer~eal-disease worsers
on the resistance of oat varieties to
stem rust, crown rust and smut. The
few varieties which appear TO be re-
sistart to these Diseases are not COM
m~ercially important, and are being
combined with better commercial va
rieties in the hope OF producing re-
sistant strains which will produce
high yields of good quality.
In New York four pure lines have
been named and distributed to farm
ers through the Cornell University
agricultural experiment station.
These are the Comedian, ComeweIi,
Standwell, and Empire. The Cornell
han is a comparatively early variety
with certain drawbacks that suggest
the need for naturalization with some
of the better varieties of white oats.
Comewell, Standwell, and Empire are
selections frJm midseason white oats
which are giving favorable results in
different sections of New York.
! The Iogren, a bodybuilding selec-
ton from Green Russia, one of the
most popular varieties in northern
Iowa, was first distributed in 1921
through the Iowa station. This va.
riety should be valuable IN northern
!, Iowa, southern Minnesota, and othel
states with similar climatic condi
lions. The Idalnine, a high-yielding
: pure-line selection from Silvermine
developed at the Aberdeen Idaho
u sub-station, was first distributed il
II 1921, when several hundred bushel
& were avXaabliel hTZditionhneliflgo'

n rigated lands in Idaho and adjoinin
!" states.
