H. F. BALDWIN ' Signs and Show Cards Cloth Banner 60 Clarke Street, Cor. Grant Burlington, Vermont Larue & Brother Company Richmond, Va. Gentlemen: t think that I am entitled to be called a charter member of the, Edgeworth Smokers Club, as I have used the Edge worth Sliced Plug between twenty and twenty-fiv- e years. When I commenced using it I was selling hardware on the road. One of my customers who kept a general store told me that he had just received a new tobacco and wished that I would try it. He Sve me a box for which he charged me 20c. He made a mistake, as it was selling at that time for 25c. I liked it so well that I made It a point to ask for ft In every store in the different towns that I made; but few had it. The next time that I called on this customer I bought six boxes, which would last until 1 got around again. I still continued to ask for it in the different towns and tried to induce the dealers to stock it. In 1906 or 1907 1 went to So. Carolina and stayed there three years. I was surprised not to be able to get it there. At that time I was in Beaufort, S. C., and made frequent trips to Savannah, Ga., and Charleston, S. C. and was unable to get i t in either of these cities. Finally I ordered some direct from you and also Induced a dealer in Beaufort to stock it. I have used it always for over twenty years except occasionally when I could not get it. I figure that I have smoked over 1000 of the 25c boxes, which have cost for the last few years 85c. For at least five years I have not bought a cigar. Have had some given to me, but they do not take the place of the old pipe filled with Edgeworth I am sixty-on- e years of age and still think that it is the best tobacco on the market. I dont think there is a man living who has smoked any more Edge worth than L What do you think? Yours truly, (Signed) H. F. Baldwin - It b always pleasing to hear from old Edgeworth smokers, and we would like to know if this record is the best ever made. But we are interested, too, in new Edgeworth smokers.

In the first generation from the purebred dairy buys used, production of milk In grade cows was increased 44 per cent and fat production 38 per cent. In the second generation an Increase of 110 per cent in milk over the original production was secured and 101 per cent Increase In butterfat This Increase would more than pay for the erst ' of a good sire and the farmer would have a better herd at the end ' besides. This work, which Is a continuation of an experiment started la 1907 with scrub Arkansas eows, has progressed into the second generation so far and results show conclusively the value of better sires. The Arkansas scrubs under Iowa conditions had an average production of 4,009 pounds of milk and 187 pounds of fat. The next generation following, made up of the offspring of the scrub cows from purebred sires, had a production of 5,769 pounds of milk and 259 pounds of butterfat. In the next generation, where purebred sires were again used on grade cows, a production of 8,413 pounds of milk and 376 pounds of butterfat resulted. Holstein, Jersey and Guernsey bulls were used In this experiment. In the original matings of the scrub cows which were later bred to Jersey bulls they produced 4,047 pounds of milk and 194 pounds of butterfat. From the first generation of Jersey mating a. production of 4,934 pounds of milk resulted and 266 pounds of butterfat From the second Jersey mating 6,257 pounds of milk were produced and 320 pounds of butter' fat. Scrub cows later bred to purebred Guernsey bulls produced 4,306 pounds of milk and 196 pounds of butterfat In a first mating with the Guernsey bulls ' 4,371 pounds of milk and 231 pounds of, butterfat resulted.

Bring Small Returns. ing and marketing pecans are confronting the growers. Until recently the most experienced growers of pecans have considered the cowpea to be an excellent summer cover crop for use In their orchards, but, says the United States Department of Agriculture, It has been found that this crop is a favorite host plant or crop for the southern green plant-bu- g or stink bug which attacks the ;lmmature nuts and by perforating the soft shell with its proboscis, reaches and Injures the tender kernel. With the subsequent growth and development of the nuts there arise at the points of perforation definite areas of deadened tissue in the kernel, possessing a bitter or acrid taste, and commonly designated as kernel spot. Large quantities of the finest nuts were A greatly reduced in consequence. substitute crop for growing in pecan orchards is therefore needed. Among the promising things are beggarweed, busli velvet bean and soy bean. So far as Is known the beggarweed Is not a host plant for the bug and the bush velvet bean and the soy bean are not supposed to be attacked by this Insect. Bush velvet beans are increasing In popularity as a cover crop In this section and may be the solution of the problem. As yet, there Is little practical experience in determining the suitability of these cover crops In pecan orchards and their efficiency in controlling the stink bug. Orchardists who use either bush velvet beans or soy beans as cover crops should carefully Inspect their crops at the end of the season to determine whether the percentage of nuts with kernel spot is satisfactorily reduced on the areas In which these crops are grown in comparison with the same variety where no cover crops are used. These are important problems on which the growers themselves can assist In securing trustworthy Information. Plan to Destroy "Stink Bug." It has been suggested that the stink long" feeds only on seed pods. If this 1b true, crops, such as the velvet bean, which are late In maturing seed pods, could be grown for a summer cover crop and turned under or cut up with disk harrows In early October before" the pecan Is ready to harvest. In this way the Insect probably would be destroyed and the ground left In good condition for the nut harvest. Growers and experimenters are expecting to obtain valuable information on these crops during the coming season.

POISON BAITS WILL KILL OFF CUTWORMS in Southern Indiana. of unproductive orchards. Some of these orchards were planted on very poor soil, and foF the worst of these the only apparent alternative Is that of abandonment. Other orchards do not produce well because the trees were planted too close together, and are now badly crowded. For these It appears that the most effective remedy would be that of removing the alternate trees, pruning those remaining, and of improving the fertility of the soil. For orchards composed of seedling trees, or Inferior varieties, is the solution. To Build Up Industry. In large outlying districts within the pecan range, yet beyond the limits of successful culture of southern varieties, the question Is bow to build up the orcharding Industry, and how to extend its range. In regions to which the species is indigenous the first question is that of finding new varieties suitable for planting. The native forest and field specimens should be examined for trees bearing desirable nuts In sufficient quantity to be profitable. Scions from such trees should be used for the Inferior seedlings. Small wild seedlings can be worked over to desirable sorts by customary nursery methods. Some common misk takes made in attempting to trees are: Using those that are too old ; cutting off branches that are too large ; pruning too severely at the outset, thus attempting to do too much in a single season ; tree's planted too close together, and topworking trees standing Inplaces where it will never be possible to give them good care. The development of the Industry should help the pecan Into a 12 months of the year market, and give employment to labor during otherwise Idle months. The kernels of the pecan contain a large percentage of oil which Is quite as sensitive to temperature changes as Is butter. In order that the shelled meats, ,qs well as the unshelled nuts, may be kept in prime condition for the longest possible period, it Is necessary that the nuts be well dried before they are packed or barreled for shipment, and that the product be kept In a cool and place during the winter months. As soon as warm weather begins these products should be placed in cold storage at a temperature between 30 and 36 degrees. In the shelling of nuts there Is considerable waste In the form of shells s and broken meats. Growers and are trying to find uses for these products, such as fertilizer, tanning material and fuel. top-wor- - saved millions of dollars to the community In which It is built Recently during high water In the Mississippi word came to Helena, Ark., that the levee at Old Town, 17 miles away, was about to break. The situation was critical. A few hours delay and thousands of acres of rich farming land would be flooded, and possibly many lives lost. Helena was the only source of aid, and many men with tools and material were needed. Every available motor vehicle was pressed Into service and over 600 men, properly equipped for the work, were In a short time speeding over the new road to save the levee. They arrived in the nick of time and by almost superhuman efforts dammed back the rising waters. Residents say that had It been necessary to make the trip over the old road the levee could not have been reached in time and that the workers would have needed boats rather than motor vehicles. v LOWER BIDS FOR ROAD WORK SUCH PAINS AS THIS WOMAN HAD Two Months Could Not Torn in Bed.
