EARLY PLOWING BOOSTS WHEAT YIELD

Lafayette, Ind., Aug. 2.—Early plowing will produce from two to ten bushels more wheat per acre than late plowing, besides helping get rid of the joint worm which has cut Indiana’s wheat production this year, according to D. <S. Myer, state leader in the campaign for a larger acreage and greater yield of wheat in Hoosierdom next year. Breaking of the ground as soon as possible after the crop has been removed puts the soil in shape to absorb every shower, makes a firm, moist seed bed and keeps the weeds down so that moisture and available plant food can accumulate in sufficient quantity to give the wheat a quick, vigorous start as soon as planted. . Dragging dr harrowing of the ground within a half day or day after it is plowed saves moisture, labor and time and helps put the soil in better condition. Discing after showers will keep down the weeds, help wipe out the joint worm and Hessian flies, two noted wheat enemies, kill volunteer wheat on which these pests feed, and also help retain the moisture. With these points firmly established by results from hundreds of Indiana farms it may be seen that every farmer who plows early for wheat not only is filling his own pocketbook, but is fulfilling a patriotic duty the state food committee asjtfffiffH ground - " for seed wheat be orown before the middle of August, wherever possible.

HIGH JUDGE OF THE LOW COURT

It seems that it is not generally known 1 that S. C. Irwin had been appointed judge of , the Marion township court. When our two Justices of the Peace, Woodhull I. Spitler and D. Delos Dean entered the war service, it left a vacancy in this judicial jurisdiction. Judge Irwin was prevailed upon to again assume this position of importance and dignity and he is ready to hear any who are trying to break into the law business, and listen to them make their maiden appeal for justice to their client to whom some one has attempted to do an unjust juryjudge Irwin can tie the nuptial knot with the sacredness of an eminent divine and the dignity of a justice of the supreme court Judge Irwin’s good looks make him'a most desirable official to preside in the bridal parlor. His manly bearing and dignified grace contribute most beautifully to this the most happy occasion in the lives of most people.
