We tell them that when it comes to bust
ness service, or instruction. or financial

But what we enjoy telling them most of all
is just this-"don't take our word on these
things, but ask some regular reader of the

we're talking facts And they'll know what

ANTI BORER MACHINE
Device Aimed at Corn Pest Will Be
Demonstrated Tuesday.

New farm machinery designed to
combat the European corn borer will
be demonstrated on the Erich farm,
a mile south of the town of st. Joe,
in De kalb County, next Tuesday
afternoon, it was announced today
by State Entomologist Frank N.
Wallace who heads the staff Of
State and Federal workers seeking
to prevent further spread of the pest.
Federal officials fighting the borer
have proved by experiments that one
of the most successful methods is to
remove the corn refuse, and have
advised burning all stalks. Recently
pillow manufacturers designed a new
pillow which, it is claimed, will turn
under all stalks. If this is the case
then it will not only be more eco
nomical to pillow than burn, but like
wise soil fertility will be maintained
from this refuse.
