Efforts looking toward the improvement of the quality of wool produced in Wayne county will be initiated in ihe spring when Prof. Claude Harper, of Purdue, will be secured by the county agent to address the wool producers and sheep men of the county. It is intended to hold a county meeting late in March, before the opening of spring field work, which will be addressed by Mr. Harper. To those who may be interested in Informing themselves of wool standards before that meeting, the county agent extends an invitation to visit his office and inspect a chart which has jus'. been prepared, showing samples of nine grades of wool.
The most common grade in Indiana j money
is the quarter blood combing, according to the chart. This wool must be over two and one-half inches and is produced by Shropshire, llampshires. Oxfords and Dorset Horns, which are ihe most common in Wayne county. This grade of wool sold through the Ohio wool pool, brought its producers 17 to 20 cents on the farm, the sale price at the warehouse being 21 to 24 cents from which expenses of four cents a pound were deducted.

Times. Come Again No More"? And when we had "hard times" parties to which we farmers wore our old clothes, mostly because our old clothes were also our new clothes? You do remember, you say? All right, then, let's get started on our story, tow it: The farmers of Harrison township are bent upon enjoying a hard times party. They wish to ra tall the days when they were not only younger, but also poorer, and when they were still struggling to pile up their first million dollars. Every farmer knows that the first million is the hardest to get hold of; also that the sailing is pretty smooth after that. "After I got hold of a million dollars.
said a farmer living close to
the Jacksonburg city limits, 'i allowed I would take life easier. But did I? Not so you folks could notice it. "I remember iust as well as if it
were yesterday," said the old man. "Id driv' over to Richmond to th' bank to chat the banker a bit. I wanted to know how near my balance

with a borrowing power of 10 times that sum from the war finance corporation, for agricultural loans. Its aim is to help finance live stock raisers and farmers in that state in a practical way without, too much red tape delay. F. H. Davis, of Omaha, is president, and the concern is getting ready for business. Regular Milk Factories The testing associations are constantly discovering cows that class as regular milk factories, not merely in the state, but all over the dairy map. The latest announcement as to Holsteins mentions a Nebraska Holsrein
named Oak Lodge Corona Clyde.!
