Let It Carry Your Load 
I N the olden days folks put the world on the 
back of a fabled giant called “Atlas." To¬ 
day progressive farmers put a world of work 
on the shoulders of an 
International Kerosene Engine 
This sturdy, reliable, willing, inexpensive 
servant is doing more today to take drudgery 
out of farming than any other one factor. It 
tackles scores of jobs about the farm — such 
as sawing wood, pumping water, cutting feed, 
running the fanning mill, etc., and disposes of 
them swiftly and satisfactorily. 
Rations for the smallest size cost less than 3c per 
hour—pretty cheap board for a “jack-of-all-trades” 
that does the work of a dozen men. Stop working 
SO hard. Slip all the pesky little jobs to an Inter¬ 
national. It conserves your time and labor and fat¬ 
tens your purse. There are three sizes, \ l A, 3 and 
6-H. P., all operating on kerosene or gasoline. 
An International dealer nearby will go over this 
work wizard, point by point, and explain why its 
“credentials” are gilt edge. Or write the address 
below and full information will be supplied.

DOMESTIC—John J. McGovern, of 
New Haven, formerly employed as a 
steward on dining cars of the New York, 
New Haven & Hartford Railroad, pleaded 
guilty in the Federal Court May 23 to 
an indictment charging conspiracy to de¬ 
fraud the Government by use of fraudu¬ 
lent meal checks, and was fined .$1,000. 
An explosion in a starch factory at 
Cedar Rapids, Iowa. May 23, operated 
by the Douglas Starch Co., caused the 
death of 32 persons and injuries to many 
more. The factory was wrecked. 
A ruling which for the present will 
protect the manufacture of 2.75 beer was 
made by Judge Julius M. Mayer in the 
United States District Court, New York, 
May 23, when ho granted the application 
of four brewing companies for an in¬ 
junction restraining United States Attor¬ 
ney Caffey from prosecuting them and 
ordering the Collector of Internal Revenue 
to sell stamps to them. 
An explosion took place May 24 in the 
case and can department of the Standard 
Oil Company at Bayonne, N. J.. in which 
30 people were burned. The case and 
can department is in a one-story brick 
building in which cans are filled with 
gasolene. 
One man was killed, three seriously 
injured and 11 others badly hurt by a 
series of explosions during a fire May 27 
which destroyed the hydrogen gas plant 
at the Norfolk. Va., Navy Yard. 
FARM AND GARDEN.—The New 
Jersey State Horticultural Society will 
try a new plan this year for its Summer 
meeting. The present scheme is outlined 
for July llth and 12th. This will be an 
auto tour, starting west from Freehold, 
N. J., and inspecting several farms before 
a basket lunch is taken. Then there will 
be a short meeting before starting east 
toward the shore. The cars will run 
through Farmingdale. through Manas- 
quan and Belmar. to Asbury Park for the 
night. On Saturday morning the cars 
will run along the ocean to the Atlantic 
Highlands, and then branch off. going 
through some interesting orchards near 
Middletown, where a meeting will be held 
in the Baptist Church. In tlfe afternoon 
several apple orchards will be examined 
and a run will be taken through the great 
potato country near Holmdel and Free¬ 
hold. Monmouth County, N. J.. ranks 
with Lancaster County, Pa., as the lead¬ 
ing agricultural county of this country. 
This trip has been planned to cover the 
territory well, and it would be an eye- 
opener to many of those individuals who 
think that New Jersey is largely the home 
of mosquitoes, frogs and trusts. 
The Department of Floriculture of the 
College of Agriculture at Cornell Uni¬ 
versity, Ithaca. N. Y., is offering un¬ 
usually attractive short courses next Win¬ 
ter, beginning Nov. 5 and closing with 
Farmers’ Week, which is about the second 
week in February. There are given 
courses in greenhouse construction and 
heating, the general principles which gov¬ 
ern greenhouse practice, and the methods 
followed in the best cultural practices in 
growing florists’ crops. Those students 
who desire a certificate of proficiency are 
required to take, in addition to the courses 
mentioned, courses in agricultural chem¬ 
istry, soils and plant diseases. Courses 
in plant breeding, control of injurious in¬ 
sects, extension work and rural improve¬ 
ment may also be elected. Certificates 
of proficiency are not given, however, 
until the student has subsequently spent 
a full year in florieultural work. For 
outdoor gardeners there are special courses 
in gardening and garden flowers as well 
as a large list of general courses which 
are necessary for proficiency in work in 
parks or on private estates. The secre¬ 
tary of the College of Agriculture at Cor-> 
nell University, Ithaca. N. Y.. or Prof. 
E. A. White, Department of Floriculture, 
will give any information desired. 
Congressman Cramton of Michigan has 
introduced a hill into the House of Rep¬ 
resentatives to prevent the shipment of 
nursery stock from one State into another 
under other than its true name. Essen¬ 
tially this is a "pure nursery stock’’ 
measure, for it seeks to make illegal im¬ 
proper labeling of such goods. Severe 
penalties are provided in cases of in¬ 
fraction. 
A warning that seed of a very low 
grade is being shipped into Michigan by 
three or four mail order dealers in nearby 
States is being sent out by the State 
Seed Laboratory at East. Lansing. Com¬ 
plaints from all parts of the State indi¬ 
cate that there has been a large quantity 
of this impure seed sold iu violation of 
the Michigan seed law. Most of the 
trouble is being experienced with clover 
and Timothy seed.
