DARKE COUNTY CROP OF TOBACCO SHORT, GROWERS PREDICT

GREENVILLE, Ohio, Aug. 15 According to tobacco raisers, the crop in Darke county will be very short this year. In some places, owing to the dry season and lateness in setting out plants, has retarded its growth and in tobacco growing regions in the southern and western part of Darke county hail has practically destroyed several crops that looked very premising. Horse Is Winner. William Brock, local horse trainer, is at Columbus, Ind., this week with his two horses. In four starts he has won three races with Dick R. and with Glendill, owned by T. A. Billingsley, h'? has won one race, took third money at two races, and fourth money once. To Greet Autoists.

Tuesday afternoon at 4 o'clock, several automobile loads of Pike's Peak. Ocean to Ocean Highway tourists will arrive in Greenville for a short stay. These men are traveling from the Pacific to the Atlantic oceans, and are choosing a route for the proposed ocean to ocean highway. Automobile owners in Greenville and Darke county will greet the promoters as it is the desire of the Greenville Automobile club to have the highway pass through Darke county. Farm House Burns. The farm residence on the Andy Stockr farm, four miles east of Greenville, on the Knick road, was partially destroyed by fire at about noon Saturday. Tipnnis Marker, who is the tenant

on the farm, succeeded in saving all

of the household goods on tne urst floor, but furniture on the two upper floors was destroyed. The loss will be heavy. The building and contents were but partially insured.

FARMERS NOT SELLING WHEAT, The farmers of Wayne and all neighboring counties have about quit selling wheat; principally because the bulk of their crops have already been sold, and at higher than present prices, or have gone into store. Then there is some wheat in stack and a percentage in barns for fall threshing, as convenient. There are, however, points in

Wayne where no wheat has been put into elevator storage, and where mighty little wheat is held on the farms. One of the Preble county elevators said last Friday that 1,200 bushels had been brought in for storage within two days, and it is also a fact that several elevators over that

way are holding stored wheat in rath

er large quantities. The Farmers' elevator at Camden

has considerable wheat in storage and

thi3 is true of the Eikenherry eleva

tors at that point To the contrary,

Glen Kara, the elevator point for Hollansburg, reported hut a single car of wheat in the building, and none on storage. A load or two of wheat was taken in at the Farmers' elevator at Camden on Monday forenoon, at a cost of 97 cents. The price was lowered in the afternoon, because of the - break at central markets. One load was taken

j Pool Is Popular. ! The swimming pool probably will be the most popular feature of the camp, bordered by rock ledges and with a hard rock bottom, with a depth that is

ton. Retail prices ranged from 8 to 10 cents per quart The Wheat Joint Worm Broken and fallen straw has been noted in many wheat fields in central and southern Illinois this season. Much of this damage is due to the operations of the wheat joint worm. Close examination of the straw attacked by this insect will show hard, knotty galls, containing yellowish, footless maggots, the larvae of the wheat joint worm. In some fields the injury is said to affect 99 per cent of the straw. Frequently the trouble is cpnfusecT with a Hessian fly infestation. W. P. Flint, state entomologist of

gerous currents, parents of the cnudren have left them at the camp with no fears for their safety. Organization of the camp was begun Monday evening, and a big camp lire was built on a knoll for the after-sup

per hour. On Tuesdav morning the

boys and girls were gathered into four classes for instruction, a closs of each of ages above and below the ages of

14.

Instruction in health, home economics, club work and agriculture are

shown the error of their ways by discriminating buyers. "The JS6.041 tons of fertilizer purchased by Indiana farmers in 1921 contained approximately 32.50S.95 tons of actual plant food, nitrogen, phos-

not sown in tho wheat, the straw b

cut high and tho stubble turned under during late summer or early fall. Low cutting is recommended where clover is sown. Straw from such fields should be baled and sold. In an infested field all trash and refuse about the threshing machines should be burned." It is presumed that Prof. Flint doer, not mean that this baled straw be sold to farm neighbors, but to be used in

in Hagerstown on Monday for which 'r maggot motioned

95 cents was paid. Several points re

ported no grain of any kind taken in during last half of past week. The Milton Grain company said: "There is nothing doing in grain jut now, but if we had coal we could do considerable business. A number of our farmers and townsfolk ?re getting anxious to lay in a supply of fuel and we are getting inquiries from day-today. J. N.

close of Foster Campbell's term. The'

would not mature into joint worms and return to the soil to inflict more damage. About the Soap Bloc Edward J. Zimmerman, writing in Wallaces' Farmer, thus discusses the "Soap Bloc". He believes that what is sauce for the goose applies equally to the gander. He writes as follows: "I see that oils for soap making are to be admitted free of duty. Now I am not an avowed protectionist, but I believe that we do need all the rev-

fenue that we can possibly scrape to

gether to make governmental ends meet. If it is a good thing for such ois to come in free of duty, wouldn't it be just as good that all soaps come

in free of duty, so that the poor, dirty

basis the average ton fertilizer in 1920 furnished 335 pounds of plant food, in 1921 the average ton fertilizer contained 349 pounds of actual plant food or a gain of 14 pounds per ton. Less nitrogen and phosphoric acid was used, but more potash was used. Consult the Bulletin The use of higher grade fertilizer is a matter of utmost importance. Do not buy the name of the brand. Buy

plant food by knowing the analysis of

the brand. High grade fertilizers are 2-12-2, 2-12, 12-2, 12-4, 2-10-4. 2-10-6 or 2-16-2. The first figure is the per cent of nitrogen (X) or Ammonia (XH) as

it may be termed either; the second is J available phosphoric acid, and the third is potash. Low grade fertilizers are 1-10-0, 0-10-1, or 1-8-1. These are anal-i yses to discriminate against.

D. Turner, under whose general supervision the camp is conducted.

Petition to Eliminate

Williamsburg Pike Tarns Filed With Commissioners Action which will allow motoists taking the Williamsburg pike out of town to drive straight to the pike from the end of Sheridan street, rather than to make the two sharp turns that are now necessary, will be taken this fall if a petition presented recently to the board of county commissioners is acted upon. The petition asks that a section of the ground owned oy Cornelius Ratliff just outside the city limits, and across School street be vacated to allow the building of a road as on extension of Sheridan street. Cornelius Ratliff, the only property owner concerned, has signed the petition which is now on file in the office of the county auditor. The viewers will be appointed Sept. 4. Two sharp turns, one at right angles at the intersection of Sheridan and

School streets, and 6ne of less than a right angle at the intersection of School stret and the Williamsburg pike, will be eliminated by the newplan. The etretch of new road to be built will be about one block 'ong.

The grain growers, fruit growers, etc. are also invited to proclaim themselves, whenever so inclined. Remember, too. fellow citizens, that the time for preparation is short, as the dates are September 13. 14 and 15, and there is much to be done to put on a show in keeping with the population and production of Wayne county. This is not to be a city or in

July Milk Prices The average price of milk received by producers in the United States during July was $2.18 per hundred pounds, according to figures compiled by the United States bureau of agricultural economics. This price was 10 cents per hundred over the June price of $2.08, but was considerably below the average price of $2.55,

which prevailed m July, 1921. The South Atlantic states received the
