HEARING ON FLAG SMUT | Washington, D. C., July 9—A hear I ing has been called by the Secretary lof Agriculture for July 15 to deter.mine what quarantine regulations are necessary toward controlling three diseases of small grains flag smut, take-all. and wheat nematodes or eelworms —recently discovered in the United States. The hearing will be held at the office of the Federal Hort icultural Board. Department of Agriculture. and will begin at 10 o’clock The primary purpose of the hearing is to bring together the officials of the states most directly concerned, and others who are interestd in the hope of developing comprehensive plans for preventing the spread of these diseasse, and at the same time, placing as slight limitation as pos sible on either production or shipping of grain. It is probable that no drastic Federal quarantines will be necessary, but it may be found desirable. department officials think, to establish such quarantine restrictions as will aid state officials in their efforts to eradicate the diseases from or control them in the comparatively small areas that they now occupy. Flag smut, which affects wheat alone, is known to exist only in Illinois. The take-all disease, affecting wheat, oats, barley and rye is believed to be present only in Illinois and Indiana. The wheat nematode or eelworm disease, to which wheat, oats, rye, spelt, and enter are subject, exi ists in Virginia, West Virginia and Georgia. Officials and other interestled persons from these five states. I therefore, are the people most vitally ; concerned in the hearing.

TRACTOR PLOWING HAS ITS OWN PROBLEMS Washington, D. C., July 9. —Plowing with tractors presents some prob- ■ lems that never bother the man who uses horse-drawn implements . It is necessary to lay out fields, so that a i high-class job of plowing can be done over the entire area with the minimum use of a horse-drawn plow’ in starting and finishing the work, says I Farmers' Bulletin 1045, recently pub- ' lished by the United States Department of Agriculture, which gives in detail some of the best methods for laying out land and plowing with | tractors. The methods in general use are divided into two classes in the bulletin—those in which the plows are elevated and no plowing done across the ends, and those in which the plow’s are left in the ground continuously. In most cases better plowing can be done when the plows are idle across the ends of the field, and for this reason the methods of this class are more popular, but many farmers prefer the other methods, as they eliminate waste of time and labor. . Plowmen using tractors wish to , reduce to a minimum the time spent in running and in turning with plows out of the ground. While it is necessary to do some traveling while the plows are idle, care should be , taken not to do too much of it, as it reduces the number of acres which can be plowed in a day. making the tractor that much less efficient. Short turns, however, are awkward for most tractors, and where such turns are necessary the operator often has more or less difficulty in getting the outfit in the correst position for starting into the new furrow at the right point. Some tractors turn more easily in one direction than others, and this should be taken into consid- | eration in laying out the fields. - WORST YET TO COME Chicago, July 9. There is a world shortage of hides and for this reason, chiefly, shoes are to be from $3 to $4 per pair higher, according to officials of the Nil ional Sfiioe Dealers Exposition which is in session here. All foreign countries, it was declared, must come to America for shoes and this has created a demand that is an-

other factor in the high cost of footwear. Walter Koos and family, and Mrs. John Barrone and son, Arthur, of near Bobo, motored to Ohio City for thd Fourth.
