This is recommen ded because fall rains can wash the disease-causing spores from the old canes down to the new. canes on the ground. Such new growth may as a result become diseased this fall. 2. Following pruning, a 8-8-100 Bordeaux spray should be applied. This will not replace the normal win ter dormant lime sulfur spray. If time does not permit pruning out the old fruiting canes fairly soon, the Bordeaux application is even more important. Apply a thorough coverage of spray to all canes both new and old. The Bordeaux will stay on longer If a good adhesive or sticking agent is used. We continue to have a big de mand at the office for poisoned grain for control of squirrels and mice. We have a fresh supply now of Zinc Phosphide poisoned grain for mice and strychnine poisoned baits for squirrels. The poisoned grain is made available at cost. Ranchers are reminded that September 30 is the deadline date for filing a form 2240 for re fund of Federal tax on gasoline used on a farm. The claim for refund is on all gasoline pur chased before July 1, 1958 which was used on a farm after June 30, 1957, for farming purposes. Those who have claimed refund In past years have received the form in the mall, however those who need forms may pick them up at our office as long as our supply lasts. Ranchers are again reminded that the deadline date for sign ing up for the 1959 conservation reserve program is drawing clos er. The need for putting more land in the conservation reserve was spelled out a little stronger this past week when farm statis ticians have found that 1958 crop will be one of the largest if not the largest on record. This re cord is all the more impressive when it is realized that this year's acreage In crops is the A COMPLETELY SAFE INVESTMENT?

So far as land is concerned farmers are doing more and more with less and less. Along with this, the same is true of the number of workers on farms while this sum mer fewer than 7 million people are doing the farm work In the country. Ten years ago more than 9 million were working at farm jobs. In other words, crop out put has increased about 13 while the number of people working on farms has decreased by 30. Our wheat farmers have again added greatly to the prob lem of surpluses when this year's crop of wheat was great enough to supply every American for three years with bread, cer eal and bakery goods. Added to the stocks already on hand, there is enough to keep us supplied for nearly five years at the" rate we have been eating wheat pro ducts In recent years. Savings has worked toward that goal for over 50 years. We now believe that the Fidelity has achieved the near impossible. Any one of the following afeguards is enough for safety.

Everytime he read an ad about how to relieve it, he bought a different pat ent medicine. He hated ra dio and television because the announcers reminded him of his stomach-aches. He tried their remedies too, but still suffered. He worried, because he thought he might have ulcers. One day he said to himself. "I will consult a physician." The physician examined him, prescribed the particular medicine that could help him most and he got better. Moral Wasn't he the foolish one to wait so long before consulting his phy sician?
