ting alfalfa IN a large part of the
state. Hay which had been cut in
many localities was soaked once or
more, and some cuttings were com
pletely ruined.
An indirect damage done by the
heavy rains will be the piling up
of work on all Ohio farms. The
usual period for corn cultivating,
haying, and harvest has been
squeezed into. a much shorter space
of time; so, even with favorable
weather the last week in June and
afterward, Ohio farmers will be
handicapped.
The rains have made conditions
favorable for weed growth so corn
and soybeans will be weedy, and
extra work will be required in
corn fields. County agricultural
agents in northwestern Ohio re-
port the appearance of a new dis
ease on oats which has badly dam
aged many fields.

Strip Mining Land
Being Reclaimed

Planting of 1,340,600 trees on
over 1400 acres of strip mine land
this spring required forty actual
planting days or an average of
33,515 trees per day. These figures
were contained in the 1916 spring
planting report of the Ohio Recla-
nation Association to its members,
made public today.
Inviting inspection and study by
any Individual or group seriously
interested in solving the problems
of land USE" the report gives a
complete picture of this year S
planting and makes specific recon-
medations for future efforts. 1t
also offers to make its results
"available to all who can profit by
the information.
Original planting commitments
of the thirty-one coal strip mine
operators who comprise the mem
bership of the Association, totalled
2,5O3,OOO trees. Sufficient stock
could not be obtained to carry out
the program, although 100000
seedlings were secured and trucked
in from the Illionis state nursery
at Jonesboro, and 5000 were pro.
| cured from North Carolina. The
! balance of the stock was secured
here in Ohio, 100 from a private
nursery, and 871,5OO from the
/ Marietta and Wooster nurseries o.
the Ohio Division of Nursery.

Gardeners Warned Against
Early Spring Rackets

Don't let your spring gardening en-
thusiasm allow you to fall prey to the
often-tried spring gyps." That is the
warning being issued currently by The
Better Business Bureau.
As the Bureau explains, the garden
ing enthusiasm Of many home-owners
overcomes their caution. One very well
known racket may be worked in the
following manner. Trucks pass the gar
deners door filed with rich, black
~humus". The trucker stops, lifts a
basket of the soil from his truck and
and begins to sprinkle it on the lawn.
When the gardener sees its dark, rich
clor against the meager, winter-dried
soil, his sales resistance hits a new
low.
Then, the seller explains that the low
price of the soil is only Is or IS ents
a basket. The gardener often becomes
expansive and orders the gyper to 60
ahead with the job.
Of course, most truckers who sell
soil are honest businessmen. But there
are the INSCRIPTIONS few who are not
above f%ooling the home-owner into be-
lieving that an outlandish number Of
bushels have been spread on his lawn.
Thereby, they can raise their job-price
10 fifty, seventy-6ve, or a hundred bu-
shells instead Of twenty can not be dis
proved.
4 Another part of this soil gyp re-
wolves around the fact that the soil is
often sold under false claims. The tru-
cker may tell you that his coil is rich
loan taken from nearby boys. In many
cases this true, but in one instance,
this. so-called humus was tested and ii
was found to be a waste material from
the dump Of a chemical plant.
Also on the list of gyps for the
gardener to beware of in the spring,
the Bureau continues, are the timer
ant "tree surgeons who offer to treat
shade trees. Numerous complaints are
received every year by people whose
trees have ben ruined. The itinerant
~termite man or plant doctor, is M
other gyp of which to beware. He *
amines your trees or shrubs, and de.
clares he has found termites which
eilI get int GA house and destroy it.
For a fee, he will restroy these termi-
ties. Actually, in most cases, no termi-
ties exist ami his worthless sprays and
treatments are conducted upon ants OF
the harmless variety.
Another pernicious spring pest is the
itinerant roofer who offers to repair the
CUTTERS of a house for a small sum.
Uusally, the gyp artist manages TO find
needed roof repairs that cost the
home-owner much more than he expec-
ted.
Whenever you are indoubt about aly
business offer. no matter how large OF
small, the Bureau concludes, you will
be wise to consult your local Better
Business Bureau for free and impair
tial information.

40 Sigs Needed To Bring
E.EP.C. Up For A Vote
Omaha 10, Nebraska

Joseph W. Martin, Jr., has ALWAYS
been interested in passage of FEPC
legislation, said Mrs. Anna Arnold
Hedgeman, executive secretary of the
National Council for a Permanent FE
PC, in an interview today. His sigma
ture on Discharge Petition No. 4 has
great significance because of his posi-
ton as Minority Leader of the House
# Representatives. Only 4O-odd sigma
lures are still needed to complete the
petition and bring the bill to the floor.
1t is hoped that Mr.. Martins lead
ershin in the matter will be a challenge
to other Republicans who, we believe.
recognize the fact that the voters are
watching to see whether the Republi-
can Party keeps its platform pledge.

FIRST POST WAR SHRINE
CIRCUS MAY29- JUNE

Auditorium, May % to June S, incl.
The termination of gasoline ration
ing and the easing Of rail and but ira
vel are expected to make it much sim
pier for residents of, communities sur
rounding Omaha to see the circus than
last year when travel was restricted to
only that which was necessary.
To meet the expected increase in
number Of ~circus-goers as a result of
the new travel situation, two more ma
tinee performances than we're given in
1915.
Matinee For Shut ms.
Nightly performances will be given
throughout the weeks engagement with
the exception of Sunday, June 2, on
which date no shows will be staged.
The four matinees have been scheduled
as follows: Thursday, Decoration Day,
May 30; Saturday, June l; Tuesday,
June 4, and Wednesday, June 5.
The Tuesday matinee will be a spec
ial performance for crippled children
and shut-ins.
A preview of what patrons can ex-
pect at the Seventeenth Annual Circus
was outlined by DR.. Fred F. Whitcomb
general chairman. DR.. Whitcomb said
that those attending the show will find
it fully up to past standards, not to
mention the incorporation of a number
IF entirely new acts.
HqnnGford Family Featured
DIR. } Whitcomb stressed that the ever
popular clowns will be going through
their antics in even greater number
than previous years. He also viewed
the end Of the war as a boost for the
animal portion Of the circus, which will
include such traditional entertainers
as trained seals, bears, plumed school
horses and ponies.
Among the featured performers who
will appear in the three rings will be
the Hannaford Family. a troupe Of dar
ing bareback riders, and the Gallagher
Family, risley artists. In addition.
more than two hundred other perform
ers will take part in the nearly three
score acts.
Arrangements for the circus are pro-
ceeding rapidly under the direction of
Rink Wright, veteran circus Snowman,
who has contracted to produce and di-
rect the circus.

Make the most of your fruit:
Apples for baking are more at
tractive If the skin is peeled in
stripes from the upper half Of the
apple. Use a moderate oven for
baking.
All fruits should be washed be-
fore using. Spraying of the leaves
often leaves a deposit on the
fruit.
Bananas will not darken if
dipped in lemon juice when
peeled.
Grapefruits and melons will
keep fresh if wrapped with
waxed paper when cut.
Roll oranges and lemons until
