DAUGHERTY TOWNSHIP FARM NEWS
  Disease-free potato seed will be distributed in the township this spring. Farmers will compare this seed with home grown. The demand for this seed has been greater than we were able to supply.
 W.J. Hoey has constructed a homemade power sprayer. This machine is equipped with a Prof. Nixon boom for potato spraying. By replacing the boom with a hose and pilot rod the machine may be used for orchard work.
  August Rombold has ordered a Prof. Nixon boom sprayer, which he will attach to his orchard prayer and use in spraying his potatoes.
  John Yeager has ordered a combination sprayer, manufactured by the Bean Company.
  Pruning demonstrations were held last week on the Hoey and Rombold farms. It was brought out that apple trees should be cut lightly. Thinning of the twigs to admit sunlight and ventilation is usually ample. Peach trees can stand heavy pruning.
