COUNTY AGENTS NOTES
OTTAWA

The Ottawa Farmers Club won a
victory Monday night, April 8, when
the club met for the purpose of dis.
cussing lime, soy beans, and fertil-
ger. The County Agent led the dis
cussion, and after forty minutes he
turned the meeting over to President
Gentry, who explained that there
were four fertilizer companies repre-
scented by agents who would make
bids on l6 percent AP and Corn and
Wheat Special. Many bids were
made, sometimes only five cents cut
would bring another bid. At the
close of bidding 16 percent Acid
Phosphate was $3.50 per ton and
Wheat and Corn Special s24.75 per
ton. The Federal Chemical Com
pany, Louisville, got the 16 percent
bids. One hundred and three farm
ers attended this meeting. Con-
tracts were being made as late as
1900 o'clock.
The farmers of the county should
take notice of the action of the OF.
tawa farmers. If 16 percent Acid
Phosphate can be had at Ottawa for
$3.50, why can't the farmers of
other sections get it at the same
price? It's the cooperation and con-
fidence in sticking together.
John Scoggin has done a wonder
full piece of work by removing the
stumps on the land which he expects
to raise a crop of corn. He is also
covering some open bitches, which
will make cultivation easier.
1t pays to remove stumps after
they have become somewhat decayed.
1t is too expensive to remove green
stumps. Stump pulling can be done

GRAPE JUICE is REFRESHING
Excellent for Use In Hot Weather and

Much grape juice Is canned at home

most refreshing drinks In hot weather.

jmre OF ole lemon. and one heaping

MEDICINE OR FOOD?


People used to consider both spring
house cleaning and a tonic "for the
blood" necessary parts Of the years
program. Now we aim to keep the
house so clean that IL need not be
completely overturned for week
each spring. We know, too, that II
we have provided the right kind OF
food during the winter, there Is no
need Of always taking medicine when
the warm days come.
In the dinner and supper menus
that follow the attempt has been
made to include fruit and vegetables,
also milk and eggs, generously, in
order to give in food some Of the
things that our "tonic" might CON
tain Iron in greens, in prunes,
oranges and egg-yolks is Of much
more use TO the body than that in
medicine ever can be. Other kinds
of mineral matter, our necessary vi
tamines, the bulk that is so essen
tial il constipation is TO be avoided
all these and other contributions
such as fruit and vegetables, espo
cially uncooked ones, make toward
our well-being.
Menus never fit more than one
family, for no two families have
just the same individual and collec-
tive needs, the same supplies in eel.
lar. garden and store. the same kitch-
en- facilities. nor the same amount of
money to spend for food. IL there
are little children or old people,
very simple dishes must be included
in each meal; il there are men doing
very severe outdoor work, some
heartier food must often be provided
for them Ready.made menus can at
best be only suggestive. Recipes are
given for the dishes starred
