In farming it is as important as in any other business to have a plan of operation for the year and then work to the plan, says the Columbia Farm Bureau News. A good plan is to di vide the farm up into plots and indi cate the number of acres given over for different crops. Then look over the market reports tor the past few years and get an idea of the most pro fitable crops to grow. It is believed that the staple crop for the next two or three years is sure to bring high prices. Merle Kirk and Roy Tyler Rent Peck Farm Near Lexington. Royal E.

Potato seed should be treated Iwith corrosive sub limate 10 days or two weeks before planting, while still dormant, accord ing to M. B. McKay, associate plant pathologist and potato specialist. Use four ounces of corrosive sub limate crystals or powder to every 30 gallons, of water. Diissolve in about a gallon of hot' water in glass or a wooden vessel before dilution. This makes a one to 1000 solution. Use decreases its strength, to cor rect which add one half ounce of chemical for every four bushels of potatoes treated for tlwo hours. It a shorter treatment Is used, reduce the amount of chemical used propor tionately. Dry the tubers immediately after treatment. Piling them up wet leads to injury. Exposure ot the potatoes to the hot sun produces black heart. Disinfect the sacks with corrosive sublimate or formaldehyde and dry before resacklng. Corrosive sublimate Is better than formaldehyde, as it destroys the spores of two diseases, scab and rhlz octonla. Rhizoctonia Is a fungous dlease and one of the most serious tuber troubles. A three to four year crop rotation is necessary for the control of scab and rhizoctonia, as the oganism is al ways present in the soil to some extent. Women Favor Progress. Jackson county women, working with the home demonstration agent, have made 80 dress forms at a saving of $800 over the commercial cost.

They have put hot lunches into ten schools, and have themselves "gone to school" to the number of 60, where they learned millinery and dress making. In all, 674 families have studied foods and food values. Political Announcements.
