Since luxuries will suffer first and likely the most, growing of lilies as a big crop should change with this year. While lilies will always be a “money” crop for those growers who get the most out of their land, and do not have to pay too much overhead. However, for the grower who is not ‘‘wise” to this type of agriculture, adjuncts should be added at once. For months the Pilot has made a consistent plea that people come out to the chamber of commerce meetings, there to hear dis- ' cussions concerning “new crops”. People did not respond as should be expected. Now. with it being late in spring, not too much time I can be devoted this year unless people already have made plans. Berries for freezing, peas, and food crops should have been well along the route of growth by this time. People must not lose sight of the fact that people must eat, and such crops should be the major part of the gardens this year. W. W. Rutherford has gotten himself 200 New Hampshire Red pullets, and looks forward to inaugurating chicken raising to this area. He has had considerable experience in this line, so his ven ture should be assured.
