FOR THE FARMERS — Items of Interest to the Farmers of Adams County. (By the County Agent) All those interested In the Adams County Farmers' association are invited to attend the meeting at the Monroe State bank. Monroe, Ind., Monday. December 20, at 10 a. m. The meeting is especially for township chairmen but all farmers are welcome. Mr. Settle has promised to be there and will help in every way possible. If we are to be helped by the Farmers' association as farmers in other counties are being helped, we must all get together and push. Don’t “leave it to George." To Kill Chinch Bugs. Chinch bugs promise to be present in large numbers next year on Indiana farms, and farmers are urged by Prof. J. J. Davis of the entomology department of Purdue university to take steps during the winter to check them by burning. This should be done whenever the ground is dry during the winter. The bugs are wintering in many sections of Indiana, especially i where they were abundant last summer, along fences, ditches, in big tufts of grass, beneath trash and in similar places. Unless they are burned this winter, they will emerge in the spring when the temperature rises to about 70 degrees and fly to fields of small grains and grasses where the females lay eggs. The young bugs hatching from these eggs will be in various stages at harvest time, as they will be forced from the grain fields, they will attack the corn. They feed on the corn and grasses, sucking the plant juices until in September wher. they go into winter hiberating quarters, and where they may be destroyed now. “A small amount of fuel sprayed on the greener vegetation a few days before firing will facilitate burning,” said Prof. Davis. “An ordinary spray pump, hand or power, witli an iron rod and nozzle giving a fan-shaped spray is all the equipment needed and a light grade of fuel oil is the best material to use. Tlie bugs prefer ditch banks, the edges of wood lots or brushy areas along the south and west sides of hedges and brushy fence rows and in neglected pastures grown up to wild shrubs an ', bunch grasses. Burning of these places will kill most of the chinch bugs. Death of one of these female bugs now means at least 10,000 less next summer, as the number of eggs that she and her offspring will lay will mean this number of bugs,” CHIEF FORESTER RECOMMENDS NATIONAL ACTION TO PROTECT FORESTS. Washington, D. C., Dec. 14—A demand is growing on the part of the wood-using industries and the public at large for a national policy of forestry which will insure adequate future supplies of timber ans other forest products, according to Chief Forester W. B. Greeley. Figures gathered by the Forest Service this year, his annual report states, showed the extent of the depletion of the nation’s forests, and have served to focus attention on the fact that the country is short of growing forests and that 'something must be done at once. The acute shortage and skyrocketing prices of lumber and newsprint early in the year also contributed to the growth of the movement. The Forest Service is advocating a program based on the conviction that the problem is national and not local, and must be handled as such. Nation wide protection from forest fire for all classes of forest land, Col. Greeley states, is the first and most essential step. It is his belief that the police powers of the states of fer the best means of enforcing reasonable requirements against forest destruction. Legislation Needed The expense of fire protection, the Forester says, should be borne jointly by the landowner and the public. He holds that Federal legislation is needed to provide for a comprehensive plan of cooperation with the states in fire prevention and the development of forestry practice, and the extension of the national forests through purchases, through the inclusion of other timberlands now in federal ownership and through exchange. There are still large quantities of timber in the United States, the report states, but they are not in the right place. More than 60 per cent of what is left lies west of the Great Plains, far from the bulk of the country’s population, agriculture and manufacture. The country is taking about 26 billion feet of wood from forests each year and Is growing only 6 billion. “We have used up our forests without growing new ones,” says the I report. "At the bottom of the whole

■ problem is idle forest land. The ! United States contains 326 million acres of cut-over or denuded forest containing no saw timber; 81 million acres of this amount have been completely devastated by forest fires and methods of cutting which destroy or prevent new timber growth. “The area of idle land is being increased by from 3 to 4 million acres annually as the cutting nnd burning of forests continues.” These facts, together with the steadily increasing distance between the average saw mill and the home builder, “have had a vital bearing on the high cost of lumber, which during the year reached a prohibitive figure for many uses and checked the luiilding of homes which is so urgently needed.” Trustees Will be in Charge (Continued fromjmge one) special meeting of the board to be held on December 27, steps will probably be taken towards the building of the hospial in the spring. The money, SIOO,OOO. can be made available at a.iy time. At the primary election on May 4, 1920, the voters voted 1.601 for tile hospital to 1,347 against it. The county has donated a tract of ground in the old fair grounds as the site for the hospital. Politicians Are His Guests Today (Continued from page one) the opinion of Harding’s closest advisors today. Chief Justice White is understood to be planning to retire from the bench shortly after the new administration comes in. The second vacancy under the Harding administration will be filled by ex-Senator George Sutherland, of Utah, it is believed. The treasury post now appears to go to some middle western man such as George R. Reynolds or Harry A. Wheeler, both Chicago bankers. Muncie Men Before Jury (Continued from page one) Muncie and Logansport but I do not feel that such investigations should be forces upon our shoulders.” While illicit liquor traffic is said to sever most of the alleged law violations, it is understood that some Muncie firms are accused of wrongful use of the mails. During October there were residing in Paris more than 22,000 Americans, exclusive of tourists.
