Can Have Four or Five Fanners' institutes In County.

As previously explained in The Republican, there are some funds in the hands of the Jasper county auditor which can be used this summer or fall for orchard demonstrations, the speaker going into an orchard and doing pruning in the morning and taking up insect pests and spraying in the afternoon. It is desired that the ladies .as well as men attend these meetings. The noon hour is taken up with a basket dinner. Prof. Latta thought we could have about four or five of these meetings in the county this fall. Walker township has spoken. Keener township wants something. Barkley township is alive. Union township is .awake. Now what other township wants a meeting? Don’t all speak at once. A domestic science meeting can be had for the asking. It consists of a two days’ session. Let the ladies get busy and speak to the chairman of their township. The following is a list of the chairmen for the different townships all over the county. iWheatfield—S. D. Clark, Keener—C. D. Shook. Barkley—Ed Oliver. Gillam —John Selmer. Carpenter—Chairman resigned and. none appointed to fill his place. Newton, Marion, Jordan and Milroy —Marion Adams. Union —-Leslie Alter. Walker —John O’Connor. Hanging Grove—Mr. Rose. Some of the above-named chairmen have not let me know wheth6ir~their township wants any of the funds due them spent in their locality or not These Iqte summer or fall meetings have nothing to do with the regular line of farmers’ institutes. If the citizens of the different townships want a farmers’ institute they must get busy at once, The institute season opens January 1, 1913, and blanks are now in my hands which must be filled out by each township chairman and -be sent to the agricultural department at Purdue. Each chairman must have a list of twenty-five men and at least fifteen ladies who agree to attend and, do what they can to piake a success of an institute, in order to secure a man speaker or lady speaker for one day? -Any citizen of Jasper county who wants further information, as to how to secure a speaker, and have an institute in their locality free of charge, can get it by writing me or calling me up on the phone. No Institutes will be held in Jasper county unless the people want them. Let me hear from you. IRA F. MEADER.

Dangerous to Pasture Stock on the Highway.

While taking his cream to Parr in his auto over a week ago a calf jumped in front of Mr. Meader’s machine and broke a lamp and did some, other damage. On returning from Rensselaer Thursday evening from band concert and attending to other business a mule belonging to a party living near the Lutheran church, in the Schultz settlement made a dash to cross the road, coming very near causing another accident. It would be a good thing if farmers living along a main traveled road would keep their stock out of the road at night, thus avoiding being the cause of tfce destruction of an auto and harm to the stock, also causing injury or even death to the occupants. The owner of stock in the road is liable for all damage done to the traveling public unless such stock is being driven 'by some one or in the care of a herder.
