Voters seem to realize the vital consequence to the outcome of the Dillon & Douglas Butter Wrapper, the Hecker Cereal and Union Club Coffee and Russian Blended Tea, judging from the way these arti- cles of redemption are coming in. The many dealers selling this But- ter should make it convenient for every voter without exception to serve it at his table, having the twin satisfaction of casting a most telling number of votes and of consuming the very choicest But- ter product on sale anywhere. The foundation upon which to build millions of votes yet to come should be the label or redemption features such as Heckers' Cereals, Gold Medal Butter, Russian Blended Tea and Union Club Coffee, the Empire Theatre tickets, and last but not least, MADDEN'S CIGAR BANDS. The organizations composed of men should see their especial oppor- tunity here. Thousands of votes can be cast each week through this feature alone, each Band being r deemable for Ten Votes. The indi- vidual voting all the above articles as a unit and without eption, is sure to suppert you with his store purchases, therefore the reasons why we classify the Redemption Features as the immediate basis of vote production.

Advocated by County Agent—Time to Get Ready for Fruit Crop—Hints About Alfalfa. County Agent W. prepared to devote his whole time to the county agent work. He was grad- uated from#the Massachusetts Agri- cultural college Wednesday, June 16, and is permanently located in Putnam, where the Farmers' association has its office. All farmers are urged to make use of the county agent in_ solving their problems, to ask him far advice on any question at any time, in short to consider him as just what he is the ‘Windham county farmers’ “hired man.” Farmers should begin to plan about this time to get their barrels, boxes ang crates for their fruit. Indications are that there is to be quite a large crop and fn order to insure getting a supply of suitable packages early in the season, the order should be gotten out as soon as a falrly accurate esti- mate of the.crop can be made. It is now about time to make the first cutting of alfalfa. Farmers hav- ing alfalfa throughout the county are urged to cut it at the proper time. The proper time to cut alfalfa is when young shoots begin to start out around the base of the stems. This indicates that a new growth is ready to com- mence. When cut at this time the young shoots make a very vigorous growth and the nmext crop is soon ready. If the alfalfa is cut before these shoots start, there is some delay in getting the second crop under way. If the first cutting is delayed too long, these shoots become sufficiently grown so that they are cut also, thus check- ing the growth of the second crop, Alfalfa fields should be watched carefully and the first cutting should be made soon after these little shoots begin to appear. The question of buying supplies, grain, fertilizers, etc., and of sellin farm products is one of the most im- RIE! Kennedy is now For Graduation ays OO0OD Ice Cream—genérously served —will prove the happy solution of Copyrighted 1915, TheB.S.Codnc.,N.Y. which the farmers of this county have to contend with. The county agent cannot do the buy- ing and seiling for the farmers, but he can heip them organize so that they can handle this end of the farm- ing business for themselves; he will oe glad to get in touch with anyone who wishes to cooperate, efther for buying or selling. It is a good time now to get to- gether and organize for the buying of apple barrels, peach baskets, ete., aiso for the purchasing of grain. Now that the county agent is able to give his whole time to the work, it is hoped that farmers will not hesitate to make use of the facilities afforded by the ant. it _pot.the most oportan .one. | maxe. a.real. musi Farmers' association and that they will keep themselves informed through the office of market quotations, places where produce can be marketed, labor supplied, etc. 1t is hoped that a Farmers’ Exchanze may be developed through which farm- ers may buy and sell different articles which they may want to purchase, or which they may wish to dispose of. Anyone having such an article may notify the county agent and he will be glad to put him in touch with any- one who wishes to buy anything of the kind. TOURTELOTT GRADUATION.
