ADVERTISE PRODUCTS, PITTINGER'S ADVICE TO WAYNE FARMERS
About 150 Wayne township farm ers and farm -women, with their children, attended the township farmer's association meeting in the high school building- Thursday night, hearing an address by I A. Pittlnger of Delaware county and sharing in a liberal supper after the program. Th meeting -was held In the high school auditorium. R. B. Morrow, chairman of the association, acting rs chairman. Miss Mildred Haas, daughter of one of the members, player a piano solo at the opening of the meeting, after which Mr. Morrow intro duced the speaker. A plea for stronger farm organiza tions in order that agriculture may be made profitable, coupled with a demand that farmers pay more attention to civic and economic matters in their
communities and in the nation, was the theme of Mr. Pittingers address. "So long as a country has a prosperous and contented agriculture," he said, "and the city workmen own , their own homes and are comfortable, the nation is safe; but when fortunes concentrate in the hands of a few. while the people with no homes, are crowded ..Into tenements or farm owners become tenants, then soon de cay begins and the nation i3 in danger. That condition is near in this," he concluded. Urges Advertising. Pointing Out Possibilities of fain organizations in advancing farm interests, the speaker urged advertising of the agricultural business and products.
"Cigaretes are advertised on every billboard, and we see everywhere, ac
counts of the qualities of oleomarg
arine. Yet nowhere do we find farm ers urging upon the public the advant
ages of pure cream, or fresh laid eggs or country butter instead of oleomarg
arine. ,We must let city people know
about our business and keep tnem informed. : '
Blaming farmers for failing in their
duties as citizens and for allowing tax
money to be wasted, Mr. Pittlnger eaid. "We save and scrape and work
to get wery dollar or to keep what few we have, and then we .often go
to the polls and vote into office to
spend our money, a man who cannot even manage his own business. Our taxes in 1913 were f 11 per capita, but now they are J226 per capita. It is time for us to look after our public business.". " Following the speech. Miss Pauline McPherson sang a solo, accompanied by Miss Mildred Haas. In response to an enthusiastic and insistent demand for an encore, she returned to sing "Rosaile." After the program, the audience filed into the school kitchen, where a gen. erous meal was served by the ladies of the Neighborly club. The occasion was partly in celebration of the close of the membership campaign and its results of a paid-up membership equal to the total of. last year, and also offered an opportunity for new members - to get acquainted. The association now numbers 127, it was announced, with many more

Farmers at short course at Purdue. university watching .demonstration of treating seed potatoes to prevent diseases.
Treating of seed potatoes with a solution of corrosive sublimate is the only sure way to get a potato crop that is free from scab, scurf and other diseases, and produce the kind of potatoes that really will keep through the winter without any trouble. How to'treat the seed will bo demonstrated at the annual farmers' short course at Purdue university, Jan. 9 to 13. This is one of the many interesting demonstrations to be held during the week, the remainder com
ing in various lines of work, including corn and livestock judging, orchard and poultry work and in home economics work. The treating of seed potatoes now is being practiced by all of " the sue cessful commercial potato growers. They are finding the practice decidedly worth while and profitable and it is being taken up rapidly by the farmer and the man who grows his potatoes in the back yard or vacant lot gardens. The methods are simple
and easy to grasp, especially with a demonstration: A large number of vegetable growers from over the state will be here for the short course and most of them will remain, for this and othr demonstrations of interest to orchard men and vegetable producers. The state com and potato shows and the club products show will be
held next week in connection with tho J
course, and prospects now are for the biggest shows in the history of the short courses.
