departments— horses, cattle, bogs,
Bheep aud poultry being taken up. It
is very complete with charts and illustrations, and is a book that should be

section of tbe Michigan Agricultural
College Experiment Station, and the
Bureau of Soils, TJ. S. Department of
Agriculture, Washington, D. C., are
cooperating on tbe soil survey under
a mutual agreement which obligates
these two organizations to complete
tbe classification and mapping of tbe
soils of the entire state.
Tbe survey waa inaugurated in
Berrien county; will be taken up later
in tbe season in Nortbeastern^Micbi-
gan, and extended to the rest of the
state as rapidly as men can be trained
for it. Tbe value of such a survey to
the state is said to be very great agriculturally. By means of It all tbe
farm lands of Michigan will be scientifically mapped ont, giving a check
on crop and fertilizer requirements
for different sections. y "*-
The composition of tbe subsoils is
being determined to a depth of at
least four feet. It was tbis fact tbat
led to tbe discovery of the valuable
subsoil areas in Berrien county, and
similar areas are expected to be found
in other sections. - . Y
The government and *etate officials
in charge of tbe Michigan survey are
men of great practical experience in
agricultural matters, as well aa scientific training. Tbis is said to be a
guarantee that tbe survey, of prime
importance to farming, will be bandied from the agricultural viewpoint
throughout. _.

Last year we published an interest

Isabella township, showing bow be
had profitably utilized tbe grasshoppers in the raising of turkeys and
bad thus escaped any damage from
the hoppers. Secretary Marston of
tbe Northeastern Development Bureau finds tbat ducks may be very
nicely' used for tbe same purpose.
The publicity department of tbe Bureau says: "Last year when tbe
grasshopper pest was beginning to
threaten some parts of Western Michigan, W. P. Hartman, tben industrial
agent for tbe Grand Rapids & Indiana
railroad and T. F. Marston secretary
of the Northeastern Michigan Development bureau, advised tbe farmers
of Michigan that tbe cheapest and tit
tbe same time a profitable way of
getting rid of tbe hoppers was to raise
poultry, preferably turkeys, witb
ducks as the second best and chickens
as first class workers.
Apparently the advice was not
heeded to any extent as Western
Michigan has lost- hundreds of dollars

From tbe *Joly crop report of tbe
Secretary of State and the TJ. S, Department of Agriculture _\t would
seem that tbe people of tbis state
have reason to be thankful that crops
in general are considerably above tbe
average. While some sections have
bad insufficient rains, in general tbe
rainfall bas been sufficient.
Corn, potatoes, alfalfa, peas, and
all of the truck and fruit crops are
abovs tbe average condition.--vTbe
bay crop is light in many sections,
and tbe damage - to wheat by tba
Hessian fly is very severe in tbe
southern four tiers of counties. Crops
on light soils in the north westeru and
west-central counties of tbe Lower
Peninsula and in some ssctions of
tbe Upper Peninsula - have been
severely damaged by grasshoppers.
Inability to secure sufficient
qnantities of poison in time for nse
rendered farmers helpless in some
sections to check their progress.
Tbe condition ranges from very
poor to very good. Many fields are
badly spotted and some are too poor
to be worth harvesting. Some damage was done by winter-killing, bat
the Hessian fly has been very active
and the extent of tbe injury done is
now readily apparent by the considerable percentage of straw tbat has
broken down. In tbe central districts
there are many excellent stands .of
wheat, and tbe damage by fly is
slight. Tbe average condition iB 73

13,451,000 bushels. 30 per cent less

of the 1919 crop still on farms is estimated ta be 9,31,000 bushels, a some- '
what larger amount than in any recent year. , .

Marion, O., July 28,—Harding bead- quarters made public tonight a letter from Louis G. Bohmrlcb, a former Democratic nominee for governor of Wisconsin and a Wilson elector in 1912, pledging support to Senator Harding and declaring the Wilson administration bad "seriously in. vaded and brutally ignored funds, mental democracy". "I shall, in duty to myself and to my country, be pleased to vpte for you and support you" tbe letter continued, "and tbere are . {millions throughout tbe states, Americans to #bom the word '"democracy" is no idle lip service, wbo feel like I do. "Let it be knovfrn tbat a vote fori tbe Democratic ticket tbis year does in fact mean the indorsement of all things that bave been done by this administration, and your victory wili be crushing to your opponent". We have received from the navy department at Detroit a notice of tbe Olympic games and the statement that the Marine Corps is to baye a prominent part in tbe same. . Particular attention is called to the fact The ! that Steven Mncble, son of Mrs. Anna Muchie of Clare, is to box in tbe 155 pound class at Antwerp, Belgium. Young Mucbie, it states, enlisted at Detroit Dec. 11, 1916 and has oeen prominent in athletic events throughout bis enlistment. We cannot find anyone wbo ever heard of this young man. If this reaches the eye of anyone who does, let bim beware of Steven's fists in tbe future. Best Finds NEW BOOK Children Of The Dead. West Is For Currie»\ B. J.

Tbis j toro_ch life subsoil is of tremendous value 'to plants wboee roots penetrate deeply, sucb as fruit treea and alfalfa, and accounts for tbe longer duration of alfalfa on sucb soils.

Tbe soils. section of tbe Michigan Agricultural College Experiment Station, and the Bureau of Soils, TJ. S. Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C., are cooperating on tbe soil survey under a mutual agreement which obligates these two organizations to complete tbe classification and mapping of tbe soils of the entire state. Tbe survey waa inaugurated in Berrien county; will be taken up later in tbe season in Nortbeastern^Micbi- gan, and extended to the rest of the state as rapidly as men can be trained for it. Tbe value of such a survey to the state is said to be very great agriculturally. By means of It all tbe farm lands of Michigan will be scientifically mapped ont, giving a check on crop and fertilizer requirements for different sections. y "*- The composition of tbe subsoils is being determined to a depth of at least four feet. It was tbis fact tbat led to tbe discovery of the valuable subsoil areas in Berrien county, and similar areas are expected to be found in other sections. - . Y The government and *etate officials in charge of tbe Michigan survey are men of great practical experience in agricultural matters, as well aa scientific training. Tbis is said to be a guarantee that tbe survey, of prime importance to farming, will be bandied from the agricultural viewpoint throughout. _.

And Grasshoppers Have "**'. -iZi Much Damage. Last year we published an interest ing statement from Jobn G. House of Isabella township, showing bow be had profitably utilized tbe grasshoppers in the raising of turkeys and bad thus escaped any damage from the hoppers. Secretary Marston of tbe Northeastern Development Bureau finds tbat ducks may be very nicely' used for tbe same purpose. The publicity department of tbe Bureau says: "Last year when tbe grasshopper pest was beginning to threaten some parts of Western Michigan, W. P. Hartman, tben industrial agent for tbe Grand Rapids & Indiana railroad and T. F. Marston secretary of the Northeastern Michigan Development bureau, advised tbe farmers of Michigan that tbe cheapest and tit tbe same time a profitable way of getting rid of tbe hoppers was to raise poultry, preferably turkeys, witb ducks as the second best and chickens as first class workers. Apparently the advice was not heeded to any extent as Western Michigan has lost- hundreds of dollars through destruction of crops by bop psrs tbis year ' "*" * *"- and the insects are From tbe *Joly crop report of tbe Secretary of State and the TJ. S, Department of Agriculture _\t would seem that tbe people of tbis state have reason to be thankful that crops in general are considerably above tbe average. While some sections have bad insufficient rains, in general tbe rainfall bas been sufficient. Corn, potatoes, alfalfa, peas, and all of the truck and fruit crops are abovs tbe average condition.--vTbe bay crop is light in many sections, and tbe damage - to wheat by tba Hessian fly is very severe in tbe southern four tiers of counties. Crops on light soils in the north westeru and west-central counties of tbe Lower Peninsula and in some ssctions of tbe Upper Peninsula - have been severely damaged by grasshoppers. Inability to secure sufficient qnantities of poison in time for nse rendered farmers helpless in some sections to check their progress. Tbe condition ranges from very poor to very good. Many fields are badly spotted and some are too poor to be worth harvesting. Some damage was done by winter-killing, bat the Hessian fly has been very active and the extent of tbe injury done is now readily apparent by the considerable percentage of straw tbat has broken down. In tbe central districts there are many excellent stands .of wheat, and tbe damage by fly is slight. Tbe average condition iB 73 per cent, or siv per cent below normal. The forecast of production is 13,451,000 bushels. 30 per cent less tban grown laat year. Tbe amount of the 1919 crop still on farms is estimated ta be 9,31,000 bushels, a some- ' what larger amount than in any recent year. , . Notwithstanding the backward spring, the same acreage was planted as last* year, and much of this acreage bas made a satisfactory grewtb. Tbere are some fields that are very backward and small, and some damage bas been done by grasshoppers and cutworms. Tbe average condi- t .. REGULAR MEETING Of Chamber Of Commerce Aug. 11.
