Sheriff Bau's deputies, Struck and\ Baumbeck, who conducted the investigation, learned from Mr. Crick that the wallet was found Saturday near his premises with but a few dollars missing.

Cdl Oat SMSdl Poor Tim*, Sot* Good Onw Farmers often slaughter their ttmbw when prices sre relatively Mgh because they, do not know the lite at which value of tha timber nicivsKi« For Instance, at $10 par thousand board feet, a 10-inen tree it worth only 10 cents, as a sawlog. If tha tree were cut, it would take 30 yeara to replace it. If this 10-inch tree is allowed to grow 9 years and reach 12 inches, its value ia 81 cents, nearly triple the 10-inch «due. In 12 years It will reach 14 inches ari be worth $1.08, or hotter than five times ita value at 10 inchaa. By allowing this tree to stand 'for 6, 12 or more years, you can make about 26 per cent interest annually on yoirr investment. If the price should not remain at $10, but drop to $8 per thousand board feet, the 6-year-old tree would be worth 46 cents, or more than twice its 10-inch value. If prices should fall back to $4 a thousand as they did from 1932 to 36 the tree would still be worth a little more in 6 years than it is now and in 12 years, it would double its present value. High prices for relatively poor quality products make this the time to dispose of low quality trees. Cut the limby, knotty, crooked trees and cut oqt the diseased ones. Save the young, thrifty trees as a bank account drawing 20 to 35 per cent interest, which can be made a steady annual income. Thriving Tomatoes Tomatoes thrive best and bear best in moderate temperatures Plants require generous amount* oi •rater in hot dry weather. They also need to have side dressing! of a good fertiliser or nitrate of soda at Intervala of some two weeks to keep them growing and blooming. Keep them free from insects, watered and growing, and when cpoler weather comes they should sat fruit. : fvTAXM. APVMMf», (by W. H. Tkmtfeu) This is NatioslU 4-H Club weak, March 1 to O.

Arnold Lambarth and Emane IMdrick, Co--wfcmity Clever elub lad by John Mehler, Crystal Lake workers, Ml by Geo. Gehifce and Norman Johnaon and the- Harvard Hustlers, lad by Gordon Jones and Wm. Beera, have already elected their officers and are under way with fine programs planned for Ittf. Any boy or girl between the agef otf 10 and 21, who agrees to "learn to do by doing," may enroll. The four H's stand for Head- Heart, Hands and Health. "My Head for clearer thinking; My Heart for greater .. loyalty; My Hands for greater service and My Health for Setter living--for my club, my community and my country." That is the pledge and everything is done to help our club members acheive this goal. • . . * . Now to get down to the practical aide of 4-H Club work. Too many youngsters enroll for their first year in club work and they are lost before the year ia over or at least they do not re-enroll for the next year. My personal opinoin as to the cause for this is that dad and mom do not become informed as to what is expected of Johnny and they are not sold on the value of it for him. Ten-year old Johnny corties home from the first meeting with the best information he is able to give; but he more than likely can't give a "full story. Consequently, the first time his dub work interferes -with something at home he ia given some diacouraging arguments that cools his enthusiasm considerably. ^ I have often promised myself that I would refuae to help organise a 4-H club unless the paretita of all prospective memfoers were in attendance. I always break down though and go ahead and wind up with far too many failing to enroll for their second year and ending record of about 70%.

Why are the big companies like Sears Roebuck, IFireetone and International Harvester willing to spend thousands of dollars annually on 4-H club work?
