Hoover to Retire from Relief Work by Summer (By Associated Press) PARIS, March 10. That Herbert Hoover, the American food adminis

ization, is to cease his relief work in

the summer was indicated in a statement issued today by Mr. Hoover con

cerning the wheat situation. He says that a majority of his coworkers alBO would return to private life.

Speaking of various problems con

nected with the wheat situation, Mr. Hoover said that they would need to

be solved by some one else, "because

neither myself, nor most of the men in the food administration will be able

to continue in the service of the government after next July." "We, also, must earn a living," Mr. Hoover said.

STATE LEADS IN STOCK RAISING

LAFAYETTE, Ind., March 10. The fame of Indiana as a center for purebred live stock is spreading, largely through the work of county agricultural agents, who are helping in breeders of the state find a market for their products not only at home, but throughout the country. The agents are exerting their influences through the formation of live stock associations and through the introduction of purebred or higher grade animals in the farm flocks and herds. As a result of this work, live stock men throughout the country are seeking out Indiana breeders now even more than they have in the past. Many orders from Eastern states for purebred pigs for pig clubs were filled last year and cattle breeders have filled orders for calf clubs in different sections of the country. Requests for two car loads of rams to head flocks in two southern states were received only last week by animal husbandrymen at Purdue univer

sity and efforts to fill these orders through Indiana breeders will be made. , Organize Forty-five Associations 1 In 1918 the county agents were re-j sponsible for the formation of forty-j five live stock associations, with a ! membership of 1,269, and in the first; two months of this year more than a i score of such associations have been j formed. j The county agents are helping to improve live stock in hundreds of; cases by the , use of pure-bred sires. ; Last year they were responsible fori the introduction on farms of ten registered stallions, 166 registered bulls. 645 registered cows, 64 registered rams and 494 registered boars. In dairy improvement work, the1

agents were responsible for the formation of ten cow-testing associations with a total membership of 301 and

2,944 cows on test. As a result of this work, 310 boarder dairy cows

were discarded.

Much work of an educational nature

in the control of hog cholera was done

more than 41,000 hogs being vaccinated

by veterinarians last year at the suggestion of the agents, who also organized 124 clubs of farmers to control cholera when an outbreak occurred.

COURTESY "If I possessed a shop or store, Id drive the grouches off my floor. I'd never let some gloomy guy Offend the folks who came to buy; I'd never keep a boy or clerk With mental toothache at his work, Nor let a man who draws my pay Drive customers of mine away." "I'd treat the man who takes my time And spends a nickel or a dime With courtesy and make him feel That I was pleased to close the deal, Because tomorrow, who can tell? He may want stuff I have to sell And in that case then glad he'll be To spend his dollars all with me." "The reason people pass one door To patronize another store, Is not because the busier place Has better silks or gloves or lace. Or cheaper prices, but it lies In pleasant words and smiling ' eyes ; The only difference, I believe. Is in the treatment folks receive." "It is good business to be fair To keep a brightand cheerful air About the place and not to show Your customers how much you know; Whatever any patron did I'd try to keep my temper hid. And never let him spread along The word that I had done him wrong." Author Unknown. Cheer up, the less you have the more there is to get.

Be glad of the chance to shoulder responsibility it develops backbone.
