Also, I have seen a number of farm ers cutting clover and grain for hay. N In order to'produce the best quality cf hay it is necessary to cut while the plant is in the proper stage* To make the best crimson clover it should be cut just at full bloom. The longer the clover stands after this period re duces the feeding value. As f^r grain, the cutting should be just when the head, or seed, is in the dough stage. That is, when the seed is mashed be tween the fingers the inside of the grain looks like flour dough. C. L. Coats, Mountville, was cutting last week some of the finest clover and barley hay that I have seen in the county. Mr. Coats will produce from one to one and a half tons of hay per acre, although the last snow had mashed down his clover and grain to some exWnt. Those who are to cut vetch for hay should cut when in full bloom. Mr. Coats also has a beautiful field of vetch this year growing for the first time on this particular soil.

Some General Electric genius has invented a searchlight gun that will write on clouds, buildings, banks of smoke five miles away. This opens up a marvelous advertising field.

They should not be used to declare the glory of suspenders, tooth paste or automo biles. cal paper about the treating of oats. Also, special cards were mailed to ev ery farmer whose name was on the mailing list, also suggesting treating the oat seed. Practically each day I meet up wih a few of those farmers who treated their seed and their talk ends by saying where they treated the seed with formalin- there was very lit tle or no smut. The smut is a fungus disease and is scattered from field to field by wind. It is also scattered by community thrashers. Therefore, treat your oat seed each year and you will be well paid for time and expense. Fertiliz ers do not cause smut trouble. As for wheat, I find the rust dam aging practically each field through out the county, though I do not think the rust is on the stem of the plant yet. There is no cure for rust and the only suggestion I can offer is to select the leading varieties and prac tice rotation. Speaking of oat smut above, this smut is a different smut than that of corn. Corn smut will not affect oats nor will oat smut affect corn.

The question is, can you buy for giveness from heaven at the last min ute, when “on your way” ? A Moham medan writes that his co-religionists do not pray for heaven. They say in their prayers to Allah, “We pray to you because we know you are great and good, deserving praise. We ask nothing in return.” That seems more dignified that everlasting begging, and more tactful. The impression that/’ justice in *the United States is in a hurry to execute i anybody or determined to do so should ' be carefully avoided. This is a case! that has never been passed upon, as regards the evidence, by any but one judge, and a case in which after-the- war excitement played a considerable part. m NOTABLE LECTURERS V I « Season Tickets $3.00 J” utauqua Week May 5-12 The Middle West fights tne corn i borer with a machine that squirts blazing oil over the fields.
