"I have been in the habit of sowing , more or les rye every year for a long time," said Jesse Druley, on Friday, "and usually sow some vetch with it. It makes good pasturage. This year we have 50 acres in rye, in half of which vetch was also sown. It looks pretty good, stands thick and tall and should turn out well. Mr. Druley said that his 80 acres of wheat looked very promising when inspected a few days ago, and it is now heading out. He said he was not anxious to discover chinch bugs in his fields and had really made no close inspection of late, but so far as he knew chinches had not shown up in visible numbers on the place, nor had any of his friends in Boston town

ship complained to him of these pests.

. as yet. Asked as to his hogs he said

i that he had very fair success with his

spring pigs and that his losses were

not heavy this year, although he is feeding fewer hogs than he usually

does, this spring. He has about 200

spring pigs trotting around in the pas

ture, as we understood him to say. R A. Campbell gets the "wander

lust' 'about the time that things begin to grow and Nature puts on. her new

spring clothes. He nas been pirooting around in the Miami valley for a

few days and returns to tell us of

wheat heading out, of corn fields un

der the plow and of rye taller than the

fence posts, south of Hamilton toward

Cincinnati. He says the season seems

to be a week to 10 days earlier that far south and that grasses, grains and gardens show it, although Wayne

county is running a pretty early sched ule this season. Farmers Make Nice Husbands. We are reliably informed "that far

mers are all right for husbands." This is a great relief, so many people hav-

given as favors Rev. Walter Jerze

who is in this year's graduating class

at Miami university, has wen a Har

vard scholarship Mr. and Mrs. E.

ing their "doubts" on that score. The

lady who vouches for this information

being all-wool and a yard wide isn't a

farmer's wife, nor a widow, but is a Miss who is connected with the Far

mers Wife Magazine.

Now the manager of said magazine

is not a farmer. He had been won-

dering about the kind of husbands farmers make, so set out to investigate'. "If you had a daughter of mar

riageable age, would you want her to

tion he asked his women readers

Well, 94 percent of the 7.000 farm women replying answered, "Yes." That Is a pretty good endorsement, said the young lady when interviewed in Chicago, on Thursday. She is carrying the tabulations by states with her. The replies were mostly from the middlewest, but every state in the Union was represented. And now Mr. Farmer, cheer up. All of this data is to be taken to Washington for analysis and will be made the basis for a survey. Such simple propositions as "two and two are four" are ample basis for a "survey" or a "commission" at Washington, you know, so we may expect to presently be told

that the farm bloc has introduced a bill appropriating 50,000,000 to comfortably provide soft places for a com

mission, in control of 20,000 agents

and sub-agents to ravage the country

for proof of why farmers, of all men

everywhere, make the best and most desirable husbands.

Isn't it an inspiring and beautiful

thought? It is for a fact. If we

weren't so blamed busy we'd apply

for p. place on that commission. To be paid $12,000 a year and all expenses to find out why farmers make such charming husbands. Wow!

Farmers who figure on getting a job

at Washington on this "survey" are advised to get a high-grade letter of

recommendation from their wives, duly witnessed and attested by a not

ary. It will help some.

The Dirt Farmer Wins The farm bloc this week won Its

ght for the enlargement of the fed

eral reserve board membership, thus making possible the appointment of a "dirt farmer" on the board. The

bill is virtually as it passed the senate several months ago, the house rejecting the advice of the secretary ot the treasury and of Governor Harding of the federal reserve bank, to let the

number of members remain at five, j The bill orders the appointment of a new member and expects a man familiar with farm needs to get the job. Two Cows In Battle The American bred dairy cow and the cocoanut cow of the tropics staged a battle royal in congress, on Thursday. The American cow won a congressional victory, when the Voigt pure milk bill passed the house by a

vote of 256 to 40. The bill will prohibit both interstate and export traffic

in all oiled or similar imitations of evaporated milk -which are made out of skim milk and cocoanut oil. This battle has been waged at various

Iv 25 vears. hut tha manufacture of

this bogus "oiled" milk In quantity is of comparatively recent origin. It is known as "filled" milk, and is only too often bought by the unwary as a cheap article of real milk. The fight In favor of the bill has been made bv hundreds of farm and

women's organizations, including the National League of Women Voters, the National Congress of Mothers ana the National Parent-Teachers' association, all three of which endorsed the bill in their annual conventions.

The bill was strongly backed by rep

numbers, which is injurious to potato, 1 tomato, and turnips. Southern entomologists are especially requested by the iepartmentof agriculture to keep a sharp lookout for this species. It seems to be identical with the pest known In Australia as the tomato weevil. It Is about one-third of an inch long, dull gray in color, and bears on the wing-covers a pale V-shaped mark. It has been known in Australia since 1908, and does much damage. The larvae feed upon the plants at

night, hiding underground during the

day.

tory laws, namely. New York, onio, Wisconsin, New Jersey, Maryland, Connecticut, Florida, Utah, Colorado, California and Oregon. Hundreds of millions of pounds of cocoanut oil has been eaten in the guise of artificial butter or vegetablefat oleos. That this has militated against the dairy interests is not to be denied. Creamery men complain that all the vegetable oil compounds are deficient in the butter fats and vitamines "which have made real milk a standard and universal article of food for ages."

Everyday Ad-Ventures Thafs What You Call Service-"" xWhen the first. indications that real warm weather is coming begin to make their appearance in town and you're: almost convinced that the room you've been living in isn't going to be as cool as it might be when the mercury gets ambitious and starts to climb out of the thermometer And you wish you knew of a comfortable, airy room somewhere in the less built up parts of town that you could move into along about the middle of June, but you can't find any of your friends who know of anything like that And so you go on wishing and worrying a little and the evenings keep getting a little warmer and your room a little stuffier and you're feeling thoroughly blue and discouraged ' But then just at the crucial moment you happen to notice the "Rooms' and' Board" column in the Palladium's Classified Section and you read ad after ad, hoping that among them you'll find the one you want And then about half-way down the list you spot a description of a room that sounds as if it had been written just right to your order a big, comfortable room on the outskirts of town with the rent just what you're paying now Oh Man, That's What You Call Service!

Inoculation of Soys Since May 10, when season for sowing soybeans opened in Ohio, questions received by members of the agricultural extension service indicate confu

sion as to whether land must be Inoculated to grow this crop. The answer is that soys will grow and make hay, pasturage or silage high in protein on almost any Ohio land, but that unless the field is inoculated there will be no nitrogen-gathering nodules on the roots, to make

the soil more fertile from the air. Inoculation is best accomplished by

scattering soil from a field where the crop has grown and formed nodules, it is said. A weevil has been found in Stone county, Mississippi, in considerable
