ERECTION OF PLANT FOR TREATING SMUT CONSIDERED AT EATON EATON, O , July 1. Discussion of the advisability of erecting a -wheat smut treating plant for cleaning smut from seed wheat, will be the order of business of the Preble county farm bureau executive committee at its regular monthly meeting in Eaton Saturday. Charles F. Williams, of Wayne county, president of the Corn Growers' association of that county, has been invited to address the committee, telling of smut damage, and its elimination in Shelby and Rush counties, In-

1 diana, through the establishment of treating plants. Mr. Williams, with the agricultural agent of Wayne county and three members of the farm bureau, made, an

inspection tour by auto, through Shel

by and Rush counties. Indiana, to look at treating plants and observe the results in the fields. Preble county farm bureau members have seen serious damage in places from wheat smut, and, as they may consider erecting a plant, desire first hand information. It is probable also that the farm bureau will consider the chinch bug situation in the county, at least two farms having been reported near New Paris, and visited by the county agent early Friday morning. It is thought, however, that chinch bugs are not very serious in this county.

j j The Farm and The Farmer ' '"" By William R. Sanborn

The first threshing outfit in Wayne i will not be large, though some fields

county reported in action this season j are producing better than others. Also

is owned by Harris & Thompson, and the first field of grain to be threshed is

owned by R. Brown, living about onehalf mile south of Webster, on the Richmond pike. Mr. Brown began his threshing on Thursday morning. It is said that he has about 100 acres of wheat and that it is running a little better than 15 bushels, according to measure and acreage estimates.. We understand that he sowed both Pool and Russian Red wheat last fall. No test has been made, as he is storing the grain. It seems that the elevators

some fields are much freer from weeds

and whltetop. It hasn't been a good season for hay and has been even worse for pastures. A Real Wheat Crop. A young man having a pair of bright, far-seeing eyes, and who is noted as a close observer and for tel ing the truth about what he sees, waylaid us the other day. His story related to 72 acres of weedless wheat, divided into "two fields, which were worth a trip to view. He admitted

that the farmer, Albert Higgins, had

called were not particularly anxiou3 managed to find room in each field to

to buy, anyway, as he tells it, also he

feels confident of better prices for wheat later on. If any . other farmer has done any threshing in Wayne up to this time, we have not learned of it. We are further informed that Mr. Brown has been the very first to thresh on several other occasions. Threshermen will get busy in earnest on July 5. First Corn to Tassel. ' Corn is in tassel. No, no, not all of it, but here and there one discovers tassels in well advanced fields. If you should happen to head southwest out of Centerville, enroute to the old Caleb Jackson farm and on beyond you may at least discover tasseling corn in two fields along the way. The first field to attract attention is on the Ernest Tremp place. Here is a lot of fine upstanding corn which was planted in April. The next man to have corn in tassel is Charles Marlatt, who also planted in April. You may drive a number of miles and not find two pieces of corn so far along, or standing

so tail ana roDust. But even so you will be gratified to note sturdy growth and abundant promise of a real com crop, albeit some fields show the effect of late planting, but are now heading skyward and making up for lost time. Here and there you will also observe that the farmer is haying. The crop

hold the shocks, but at that the ground

was all littered up with them. "Good enough," said we. "Bring your Packard around on Thursday, and we'll take a look at those field!" And we did. The shocks were still there, all right, great big ones and too numerous to count. There can be no question that Mr. Higgins will have a world of straw, which is a consideration, and the chances are that he will thresh 20 bushels to the acre, or close to it, if the grain is plump and heads will filled. "The machine will tell the story," said the young farmer. "I'm

not making any rash guesses, but I'll say this. It took 2 pounds of twine to bind an acre, in spots, and we used an average of 2 pounds straight through." The C. B. Jackson Farm All Wayno county knows Caleb Jackson, and nearly every farmer knows the old Jackson farm, which was carved out in the wilderness in the early day. There are 3?7 ac;es in the place and a mighty roomy and

comfortable o'd farm home adorns the scene, and the out-buildings, silo, elc, are in keeping Mr. Jackson was born on this farm, and sUll makes it his home. His brown bair belies his years and whatever his age he surely doesn't look it. Albert Higgins is now farming the place. He re-ated a former experience where he raised 30 bush

els of wheat to the acre and used three pounds of twine to the acre to fcind it. This was on another farm in the Centerville district in 1919. Sam Lewis, a neighbor, beat him 10 bushels at that, his ten-acre patch running 40 bushels. There are 80 fall pigs, dandy reds, on feed: also 25 red brood sows and a lot of spilng youngsters Mr. Higgins also has a bunch of prime steers in the pastures. There are about 80 acres iu corn on the farm, and considerable hay. Threshing Begins Tuesday.

There are 14 fann'e.'s in the first "ring" to be threshed by the James Wilson outfit in the Centerville district. The rig is expected to get into action next Tuesday . but the lucky farmer to get the first run of the machine is unknown to us at this writing. William Dynes, of Center township, will be among the first to thresh rye over that way this season. Threshers' Rates in Union.

The controversy over the threshing

rates to be charged in Union county was settled on Wednesday evening. In view of the low prices now ruling on wheat and oats farmers were anxious to get the lowest possible figures on the job. This resulted in a meeting of threshermen and farmers at Liberty, et wh'ch the following prices were made: Wheat per bushel, 8c; oats, 6r; lye, 12c, accord'ng to our informant, Samuel Caldwell, of Cottage Grove. Straw Heavy; Crop Light "I have straw enough in that field to make it look like 25 to 30 bushel

wheat," sa:d W. J. Faucett living 4V.

miles south of Richmond, on the Straight Line pike. Buf. he isn't ex

pecting any such a crop as that, and will be satisfied if it runs around 15 bushels, and up. He has fifty ac;es of promising oats, considering the hot weather, and s:xty acres of fine corn, the gorund be'ng in number one shape when planted There are a lot of hogs on the Faucett place and fifty or more of them will be ready for the fall market. No bugs of any kind have been caught destroying crops south of town, so far, and farmers are hopeful of escaping that kind of trouble.

OBREGON CONTRASTS WITH CARRANZA; HAS NO REGARD FOR SHOW

(By Associated Press) MEXICO CITY, July 1. President Obregon has shown on numerous occasions lately that there is nothing of the aloofness and unapproachabilitv about him that characterized his predecessor. Carranza. He frequently dines in public with his wife and at one cafe where there is dancing he may be found at cimes escorting a friend in promenade although he does not dance. At a recent wrestling match he

aroused much applause when he quietly slipped into a box and was not at all backward in picking his man to win. Lives in Cottage. . He still refuses to use Chapultepec Castle, the beautiful presidential home for a residence, preferring to live in a modest cottage nearby. The Castle, however, is frequently used for small parties and the circle of Obregon's friends is well entertained. The president disdains pomp and show and even the few state receptions he has held have been modest. Always a good horseman. General Obregon may be seen almost any Sunday morning on the bridle path and on days of fiesta he frequently joins the automobile parade through Chapultepec park. At no time does he carry a body

guard, "not "even ' on 4 recent-national holiday when rumors of .revolution were rife. On that day he.' passed through thousands of spectators in an open carriage. , .
