NDIANA FARMERS • 1 )irectors and Officers in d Session at Indianapolis— 4 Urge Curtailment _ * 4 OF ROAD BUILDING < federation Now Has Membership of 60,000 in ( Eighty-three Counties Indianapolis. Ind., Murcii 30. —Many. l activities featured the session of the board of directors of the Indiana Fed- , eration of Farmers' associations heldj, at state headquarters here during the last week. The directors and officers 1 were in nes'sion two days at which 1 John (1. Brown, of Monon, president of the organization, presided. The meeting marked the close of the first year of the official existence of th-’ federation, It having been formed March 25, 1919 with some forty odd counties sending representatives to the organization convention. Figures show that since being formed the federation has grown to a membership of close of 60,000 farmers, and the of fleers are entering up their duties of ji’ie second year with a determination ti reach the 100,000 mark before the next state convention to be held in November. Eighty-three counties are Members of the parent body at the present time. One of the most important reports made at the board meeting cam » from the subcommittee of the legislative section, and met with the approval of the directors and officers. Regarding road construction under the jurisdiction of the statg highway commission, the committee recommended that such construction should be carried out so as to- result in securing the state’s portion of the available federal funds, but urged ’“conservative action on the part of both federal and state authorities in all programs of road building until costs of construction can be arrived at that will exclude the present abnormal expenditures." In all permanent road construction, where local conditions do not render it impracticable, the committee reported that a provision should be made for a free roadway for the accommodation of all traffic that would prove injurious to the pavement, such as heavy machinery, or that for any reason could be handled on such side road. Provisions calling for proper drainage also .were recommended. The scope of the centra! legislative "ommittee is to he Increased by hav ; ng four from each district and four from each county act in an advisory capacity. The district and county rep--1 resentatives will be composed of two from each party, one a man and one ’ a woman. Questionnaries are to he sent to all of the leading candidates of both parties including Governor. Lieut. Governor.’ U. S. Senator and down to County Commissioners, asking their views on matters of interest to farmers. These questionnaries are to be drafted by the central committee and sent out to the various county and district members, who, in turn, will see that they are turned over to the office seekers, including aspirants secretary, for calling a meeting of the I state secretaries of the middle West ■ for seats at the next session of tne ■ state legislature I A plan of Lewis Taylor, general) which are affiliated with the American Farm Bureau Federation for the purpose of organizing, was approved by the directors. Mr. Taylor believes that such an organization interchanging ideas and deciding upon uniform policies would be of mutual benefit. He will invite the various secretaries to meet here some time in April. While in the city the visiting secretaries will be entertained at a dinner by officers of the federation. Mr. Taylor hopes to have J. R. Howard, national president, present at the meeting as the guest of honor.

The copter of the lawn should be free of any round flower beds. Preparation of soil.—To grow well, flowers need a deep, mellow, rich soil. In order to secure those conditions a trench should be made the length and width of the border and at least 15 inches deep. In spading the soil the bottom 5 Inches should be thrown on one side to be carried away and the remaining soil mixed with 1-foot layer of well-rotted manure or compost. Planning the border. —The attractiveness as well as the usefulness of the flower border depends upon the choice and arrangement of flowers. The flowers should be chosen as to height of plants, color of blossoms, and seasons of blooming. The tallest flowers should be placed at the back of the border. For a border 6 feet wide none of the plans need be over 5 feet high. There can be a riot of colors if the flowers are arranged in clumps of two or three throughout the entire length of the border and if white flowers are used freely between shades tl;at clash. In well-planned flower borders some flowers should be in bloom every month during the growing season. A surprisingly large number of individual plants of each variety will be needed. During the first year the borders may be made most attractive with annuals alone. After the first year hardly perennials might predominate with enough ennual flowers to fill up the spaces and hide the soil. The following well-tried, old fashioned flowers will give the best results: Annual flowers. — Alyssum, African daisy, annual pholx, aster, calendula, calliopsis, candytuft, cornflower, cos mos, larkspur, nigella, marigold, nas BETTER DEAD Life is a burden when the body is racked with pain.
