FARM BUREAU NOTES.
NITRATE FOR FARMERS,
In another article in this paper it will
be noted that the Government will for.
nish nitrate of soda to the farmers again
at cost. The price on this is $81.00 per
ton and can be ordered by application
through the County agent. For further
particulars get in touch with the Farm
Bureau office, All orders must be plac-
ed by January 24.
FARMERS ACCOUNT BOOKS.
The County Agent has on hand in the
Farm Bureau office several farmers ac-
count books that will be sold to any
farmer desiring same at 45 cents which
is the cost price of having them printed,
These account books are very complete
yet simple and for any farmer who wish-
es to kee p such accounts to have an ac-
curate record to be used in figuring the
income tax, etc., they are very desirable.
Farmers desiring to look them over can
call at the Farm Bureau office where we
will explain the books and glad to help
in any way in keeping the records if
anyone desires them.
ORDER FERTILIZERS NOW.
R1f you have not already ordered your
fertilizer I would advise ordering at the
earlist date possible. We have no as-
surance of immediate delivery and will
save a great deal of inconvenience to
have the material on hand when need-
ed.
In com munities where possible it will
pay several farmers to go together and
order in car-load lots. Last summer
about $3.00 per ton was saved in this
way by ordering cooperatively.

County Agent.

Basketball Coach
Shocked in France.
Lieutenant B, (|M. (Dutch) Hermann
Penn State's varsity basketball coach
and mentor of three undefeated Blue
and White freshman football teams, is
recovering from a severe case of shell
shock in a base hospital in Toul, France,
He was injured November 19
In a letter written November 27 to
State College friends, Lieutenant Her-
mann said a big Hun shell landed pear
him in a depse woods, where he was
leading two platoons in an attack on a
hill after crossing a field swept by Ger-
man machige gun fire.
* While reorganizing there the Hun
artillery opened on us and gave usa
beautiful lambasting”, he wrote, 1
lay out in the open through three of
their barrages, and they certamly turn-
ed things upside down in that woods
* During the fourth barrage, three
duds struck about three feet from my
head so 1 decided to move. I saw a
shell hole about twenty feet in front
me and started for it. Just then a big
one landed near me, and it knocked me
about fifteen feet. I regained conscious-
ness the next day in field hospital, |
was dumb for three days, but a special
ist got roy voice back for me ”
Lieutenant Hermann expects to be in
valided home shortly. He will
less be retained on Penn State's ccach-
ing staff when he returns to the college.

The constant drop of water wears away
the hardest stone
The constant gnaw of Towser masti-
cates the toughest bone
The constant wooing lover carries off
the blushing maid
And the constant advertiser is the man
that gets the trade,
Don't ever think that printer's igh is
money lo the bad,
To help you jail a roll of kale there's
nothing beats an ad.

Tribute to a “Country Editor.”
The Philadelphia Press seems to be
alone in its view that the new secretary
of the treasury does not size up to the
job. Its only argument is that Mr,
Glass, being a country editor, has had no
training in large finance. The big city
editor who does not know that the coun-
try editor has more trouble with financ.
ing his job than any other part of its
needs personal contact to enlighten him.
Any man who can successfully run a
country newspaper is fit for most any
big job. Secretary of the Navy Daniels
was not the first man to prove this, and
it is sate to say that Secretary Glass
will not be the last. Numerous countey
editors help much in running the coun-
try without holding any job,~Philadel-
phia Ledger, Saad
