BUSINESS IS GOOD AT CAMDEN, OHIO; TOBACCO IS RE-HANDLED 111 WAREHOUSE

BY WILLIAM R. SANBORN . . The wayfarer who might happen to drop la at Camden, O., tor the first time, on one of these pleasant Jane days, would never imagine that this homey little cify of flowers and gardens and shaded streets, was once a pork packing center of some Importance." "Nor would he, from present indications, ever dream that thous4 and of barrels of flour, the output of three "flouring mills, at one time made the city famous. ; .But old-timers will tell you that this Is true. There were men here In antii bellura days who shipped hams and bacon sides, and pork In brine, by way of Cincinnati and the Ohio and Mlss- . issippi rivers to New Orleans, from - whence the meat reached other southern cities, one of the pioneer pork packers had a whole lot of meat confiscated by the southerners along In tne sixties, saia camaenue mtids a. couple of distributing houses south of the line at that time. Business is Good. No, Camden never boasted a great stock yards, but farmers came in from near and far at killing time and sold, their dressed hogs at Camden. Here they were cut up, drysalted, smoked or packed in brine. There was a . long wagon haul to Cincinnati at first and then the railroad came to broaden and build up the meat and flour business, which prospered and grew modestly for several years. tFhere are- neither packing houses nor flour mills in Camden today, but no one seems to miss them. Business is good in Camden. It Is a nice city to live in, a friendly, neighborly place, located in a rich section of Preble county; for which it is still the market place. If you visit Camden on a Saturday afternoon and note the crowds In the streets, and the long lines of autos you will conclude r mat, regardless 01 us past, mat Camden is making business history right ; now and right along. Something Doina In Tobacco. Camden has one large and well stantial brick structure which has seen little use for some time. But it - presents a busy scene just now and promises to do bo for months to come. It has large capacity for bulk sweating and redrying, and has 175 cases in sweat, this time. This lot comprises , Zimmer Spanish, Seed Leaf and Connecticut stock which the new owners of the plant have shipped here for rehandling. This tobacco warehouse, formerly owned by the "Four Tobacco Com- . pany." so named because owned by four men, was taken over May 1st by S. Jasulek & Company, of West Alexandria, who,-it is claimed, opened the ball by buying the first 1918 leaf bought In that section of the tobacco belt. The first few small crops . of Spanish they took at 10 and 12 cents, so they tell us. According to Frank Plyes, manager at Camden, there are now upward of 300 cases on the floor, nearly all of which, was shipped here for rehandling because there is labor" in Camden to handle it, and more particularly female labor which could not be. obtained sufficiently in West Alexandria. Some 25 women and 10 or 12 men are new at work in this leaf warehouse, and while very little tobacco nav be bought in the Camden vicinity they expect to keep busy handling phipments from Dayton and West Alexandria, which will be assorted and repacked ready for use of cigar -manufacturers. ; Mr. Pyle states that! one car load of seed leaf, bought from i various growers near ingomar, ior which they paid 12c at that station and shipped to this point. Will Pack Tomatoes. J. E. Parker & Company, of Eaton, have arranged to pack a lot of to matoes at the Camden cannery this ; season, which . explains why some farmers in the vicinity of Camden, and within reasonable hauling distance, are putting in considerable tomato acreage, or have just completed doing 60. We understand that tomatoes are the only crop that will be canned at this plant this year, and that it is not unlikely some tomatoes will be shipped in during the height of the ripening season. At this writing wheat looks mighty promising and there is no compaint promising and there is no complaint ( nau a very neavy ram uu muuuay o.uu , one notes a few spots in nearby fields where some wheat has lodged, but not in appreciable quantity. There were showers in the Camden section again on Tuesday and in the neighborhood of Fairview there was a driving rainstorm during that afternoon, as the writer can attest. But after getting out of that downpour we found a dusty road as we neared Richmond on the Boston pike, though the- fields around Boston were drenched, and doubtless beneficially "so. Many fields of corn show late planting between Eaton and Camden, and on a circuit of some forty miles, there Is but little evidence of replanting and. in the main, corn is growing fast, and is of good color and mostly free of weeds. A Little Old Wheat Left. While it is true that very little old wheat remains in farmers' hands in Preble county, we learn that here and there one may find a farmer who has been holding until the last minute, hoping for an outside price. In one instance a farmer having around 400 bushels, possibly more, refused $2.60 for it a short time ago at an elevator which would hardly pay over 2.15 for it at this writing, so close are we now to the new harvest. It is interesting to note that the old Morris flour mill has recently been torn down and that the material was shipped to Hamilton, O., within the past two weeks, also the machinery, the whole shooting match having been bought and scrapped by a junk dealer. One of the old packing plants, is now the "Jumbo" elevator of the Eikenberry Brothers line of elevators, seed houses and feed manufacturing plants. E. C. Eikenberry, a former president of the National Grain Dealers' association, was among those who attended the meeting of the elevator men, millers and board of trade operators, called by Julius H. Barnes, United States Wheat Director, and which was held at the New York Chamber of Commerce rooms on June 10 and 11. This meeting was, of course, of great national importance, and was covered by The Palladium by wire for the information of its readers. Revival inBuilding . Camden is expecting a Tevival in building, partly so in town and a lot more in the country. Tom Donahue of the South Side Lumber company says

that the prospects are the brightest In a long time for the sale of lumber. He believes that some new - houses will go up and that there will be additions and improvements in town and

in the country roundabouL Camden business men are optimistic and the bank deposits reflect a healthy condition. Neft & Fry, the cement stave silo men, say that they are as busy as cranberry merchants and that they are swamped with orders for silos from their agents who cover a large territory. Viewed from the established level of high prices, which show no inclination to come down off the perch, it would seem that the day to build haa arrived, particularly so as there are now no restrictions as to material nor to telling when one can build more cheaply or to better advantage as to the cost of either material or labor. Nor does this apply to Camden alone or in particular. It means Richmond, Eaton, Cambridge City, Hagerstown, or any old place on the Indiana or Ohio maps, and then some. Catting of Alfalfa at W rong Tone Causes Heavy Loss By P. G. HOLD EN. FAILURE to make- a success of alfalfa growing may be due to any one of several things. Most of us know that alfalfa will not do well la sour soil; we know that the soil may need to be inoculated; we know that alfalfa must be properly cultivated. But many of us do not realize that alfalfa should be cut at exactly the right time, or else we do not knpw when the right time is. Failure to cut alfalfa at the proper time has ruined thousands of fields and discouraged thousands of farmers. These two things should always be borne In mind : If we cut alfalfa too soon, the plants become yellow and sickly ; they do not do well and weeds and Alfalfa Stems Notice New Sprouts Starting From the Crown. grass spring up and smother them It may be that the sap sours in tht roots and the bacteria die. If we cut alfalfa too late the tops of the new shoots are clipped off bj the mower. The new crop then has to make another start This puts il back and often weeds and grass grow up and choke it out. There Is but one way to tell whec to cut alfalfa. We must watch for the new sprouts and pay no attention to the blossom. . .' . If we get down on our knees In 'our alfalfa field and separate the stems of alfalfa at the crown we can see whether little shoots or sprouts have started from the crown of the plants at the base of the stems or from the stems themselves. If they have started, It is time to get out the mower and cut the alfalfa, no matter what the weather is. The little shoots may not be over an inch or two long, but they will grow so rapidly that in three or four days they will be several inches long and it will then be too late to cut th alfalfa without doing injury to th next crop. Dr. Hole Refuses Position On 1. 13. Summer Faculty Dr. Allen D. Hole, head of the deartment of geology in Earlham college. has refused an apointment as a member of the faculty of the summer school of Indiana university, to take charge of classes in geography. Dr. Hole said Wednesday morning that he would be unable to accept the work at the state university owing to I duties with the college here, especially in the organization of the organization of the large amount of museum material which has not yet been arranged for use. Wilson Catches Lots Of Fish, He Writes Cronies Forty-two of the "finest trout In the world" are eloquently described in a letter from former superintendent of Richmond mails, Frank N. Wilson, who is vacationing in the heights of Colorado. "Just yesterday we went out and fished a bit catching over 40 trout, 7 to 14 Inches lon&,, wrote Wilson to some of his former postoffice associates. They termed him "lucky Wilson,' Wednesday morning.

For the last two years, plant lice have done much damage, not only to garden truck, but to ornamental shrubbery. This year they are present in even greater numbers, due to the mild winter, which failed to destroy the wintering eggs, v All plants should be watched carefully for the first appearance of pests and as soon as they are found the plants should be thoroughly sprayed with nicotine sulphate. The plant lice can usually be found on the tips of growing shoots or on the under surface of leaves; in each case they suck the plant juices, causing the leaves and shoots to curl and wilt. Unless the pests are controlled quickly, they will cause considerable damage. Spray infected plants with nicotine sulphate, 40 per cent., using one teaspoonfull of .the nicotine sulphate to one gallon of water. In spraying plants that have smooth leaves, better results are obtained by adding one cubic inch of good soap and thoroughly mixing the spray. The addition of the soap causes the spray to spread out and stick beeter.

CATARRH SPECIALIST COMING TO RICHMOND WILL GIVE FREE EXAMINATION. AND ADVICE Medical Director of Indiana Catarrh Institute to Give Talk on Catarrh and Tuberotriosls Chronlo catarrh of the nose, throat, and lungs Is ao prevalent and Is so often the forerunner of fatal diseases like tuberculosis, Influenza, asthma, hay fever and others that the Indiana Catarrh Institute, permanently located at 1436 North Illinois street Indianapolis, Ind., is sending their medical director to a few points in Indiana to examine and advise sufferers from tnis disease on now to prevent or cure it 1 Catarrh, besides being extremely disagreeable and annoying, with its continual coughing, hawking and spitting, is positively dangerous, as It leads to many fatal diseases and undermines the strength and health of the whole system. It is a stubborn disease to cure, requiring the skill of an expert and experienced specialist to properly rid the system of it in a short time. It Is very seldom, if ever, cured by patent medicines, mail order treatment, home remedies and the like. The Indiana Catarrh Institute Is a large institution, devoted entirely and exclusively to the treatment of catarrh. It has a staff of specialists who have devoted more than sixteen years to the study of this one disease. There is no other institution like It in this country and their methods use In curing catarrh are different from any other in this country. Their methods can be used either in the Institute or in the home, according to patient's convenience. Anyone visiting Indianapolis is invited to call at the Institute and investigate their methods and results. But for convenience, It is well to see the medical director; an expert specialist, when he is in this city. His examination, consultation and advice is free.
