During the warm days it is especially important that meats be given the utmost sanitary refrigeration to insure their reaching you in perfect condition.
We have just installed a new BRECHT AUTO¬ MATIC ELECTRIC REFRIGERATOR COUNTER and
you can be assured of the best of meats when you order

.;' ' DAIRY TRIP
A nnmber ot Farm Bureau families bave been planning to take a special dairy 4rlp early in August. Some suggestions had been made regard¬ ing a trip to Ohio, one of our leading Jeraey states, as everybody thus far has expressed Interest In seeing Jer¬ seys on this trip.
On later consideration It appears that more will go on a shorter trip tor not to exceed a two-day period. Therefore, plans are being developed (or a trip to herds in and near Craw-, ford county, Illlhols, proiiably on| Thursday and Friday, August 6 and 6
Sereral farmers and their faml-J lies are already planning to make this] trip. They feel that Clay county can learn come mighty profitable things •long dairy lines from a section like Crawford connty, where such inten- elve development of the dairy busi¬ ness has hC4>n a'^compllsiied during the last several years. Community breeding and cow testing work has heen conducted in' that section in » "Way that demonstrates what can be accomplished when breeders of var¬ ious sized herds use business methods nnd work together for the better¬ ment of their common Interests.
Details for this trip will be care¬ fully mapped out In order to show practical farm dairies, both large and email, and both gradea and pure hreds. Various systems of feeding •nd management will be demon strated and other items of special in¬ terest in the dairy business will be •hown. . „:.;,
Thureday, August 13, Ik the data eet for the annual sUte picnic of tbe Illinois Agricultural Association. It will be held this year at Mt. Vernon.
A number of Clay county families are planning to attead. Practically every county in Illinois will be represented. Soiithnkn Illinois, In particular, is expected to contribute a large deicKatlon, aside from having • number of exhibits on hand, feal- nring the agricultural possibilities of Egypt. —'
Legumes Check Erosion by Heavy Root System
Legume crops may check soil ero¬ sion tn three ways: (1) by furnish¬ ing a cover crop, (2) by the addiubn of a comparatively large amoimt ol organic matter to the soil, aod (3) hy a heavy root system which tends to hold the soil, according to A. H. Karraker of the agronomy depart¬ ment, college of agriculture. Univer¬ sity of niinois.
Any legume may serve as a cover crop, bot some legumes are especially adapted to forming a cover crop which will., to a large extent, prevent erosion on hill landa. Clovers snch as red, glslke, mammoth, sweet and alfalfa make excellent cover cropa. These cover and protect the land during the seasons when erosion Is moet likely to occur. These legumes are espe¬ cially vt'.lnable In preventing sheet washing.
The above named legumes may oe handled In snch a way that they will add a large amount of organic matter to the soli and this in turn will help cut dovrh the poaslbllltles ot erosion. The organic matter In tlie soil tends to absorb the water and In this wsy ents down the volume of runoff. The organic matter also enriches the soil and^ reduces the hazard In growing cover crops.
The root systems of the legume crops play • big pari In checking ero¬ sion. The roots hold the soil parti¬ cles togetber, make the soil more re¬ tentive of moisture and add organic matter directly to the soil. The beavy root systems of sweet clover and ak fai fa are well adapted te this tntto- Uon.
The Women's Foreign Mlsslooarr society will meet on Wedneeday ot thU week with Urs. Fred Bten».
