Big Land Clearing Contest
Our Wisconsin exchanges tell of j g
an interesting campaign in Rusk' 3
connlv, that state. The Rusk county H
papers carry this slogan: "6000 more! 2
cleared acres in 1920." Their edit-j 8
ors have found that there are 20w0
farms In the county wnicn means that
on the average each farm is to add
three more cleared acres this season.
They optimistically call their 1920
land clearing campaign "Rusk Coun
ty's $1,000,000 Land Clearing Con
test" and give as their reasons for
doing so this explanation:
"Six thousand acres planted to po
tatoes would mean that "with a yield ig
of 150 bushels to the acre, it would j
take 1200 refrigerator cars to trans
port these potatoes to maket; 40 j a
train loads of 30 cars each. If these !g
potatoes were sold at $1 a bushel. H
they would bring $900,000. jS
"If 6000 cleared acres were added
to the cultivated area of the county,
it would after the year 1920, be able
to support 2000 more good dairy
cows and the resulting dairy produc
tion would amount to $300,000 an
nually. Two thousand more dairy
cows would support 8 more cheesa
factories and B more creameries."
Rusk county is out to win and of
course the editors are among the
leaders in the movement.
Are You Bothered by Flies?
If flies are beginning to bother you
it is up to you to find out where that
pile of filth is and clean it up or
anyway poison it against this insect.
Professor Wilson of Wisconsin ag
ricultural department tells about flies
in the clearest, briefest way we have
eppn anvwhere. He savs:
"The fly is the filthiest creature on, a
the face of the earth. It spreads dis-1 3
ease and causes untold suffering. Ty- j 3
phold fever, summer complaint, tu- j JS
berculosis, and possibly many other : g
diseases are carried by the fly. Thou- 3
sands of people die each year from g
preventable diseases and a large part , jj
of the responsibility rests with the g
fly- ia"
"Flies breed rapidly. A female
will lay several hundred eggs tnjg
batches of 120 or more. It requires g
only a few hours or at most a ' a
day's for these to hatch out into lar-!g
vae. The larvae or 'Iworms" burrow j g
into whatever they are hatched "P-;j$
on usually nun ana ieea huu siu
for spveral days. Then they change ; g
into another form resembling sman
oval seens. mree or iuui u; mic. g
the "peeds" break open and tne ma
ture flies come out. The flies breed g
all summer and as many as ten gen-1 y
erations may be produced in a single jg
season."
Here are some of the ways of com
bating the pest:
1. Swat them, poison them, trap
them.
2. Keep garbage in tight recepta
cles remove often.
3. I'se screens.
4. Haul manure away from stable
daily. If this is not possible, treat
the manure with borax or insect pow

That is the big problem for farmers in this day
of expensive operation. And that is why the
Fordson in its efficiency is growing in demand.
It reduces the cost of farming,
thereby adding a greater profit
to that which the farmer raises.
