The Flint Board of Commerce FLINT, MICHIGAN


HAS FOR ITS OBJECT THE PROMOTION OF THE GENERAL WELFARE OF FLINT AND GENESEE COUNTY


In addition to its regular staff, it has a Retail Merchants Bureau, working to eliminate trade abuses and to bring about a better understanding between buyer and seller.


The Traffic Department, with an able staff and an elaborate file of railroad tariffs, is constantly on the alert in the interest of the public as well as the railroads. It fostered and has been instrumental in building up the Rural Motor Express with Flint as a transfer center for all points north, south, east and west. ] This service will eventually be a great factor in transportation, not only to the city dweller but also to the farmers.


In the offices of the association will be found a Library of Directories covering over two hundred cities in various parts of the country. Other valu- able reference books are also on file, all of which are open for the use of the general public.


The offices of the association are located on the fifth floor of the Dryden Building, and all the resi- dents of GENESEE COUNTY are invited to visit and use them when in Flint.

GENESEE COUNTY SOME FACTS AND FIGURES


G


ENESEE COUNTY, with a total of 3,896 farms in an area of 655 square miles, is distinctly a farm county. More than 92 per cent. of the entire area of the county is in its farms and more than 80 per cent. is under cultivation. The farms are, as a rule, of more than average size, about 3 per cent. being under ten acres. They are, almost without exception, profitable and correspondingly valuable. The farmers, as a class, are the most prosperous folks in the county. In view of the number of farms, that is in itself a statement of the wealth of this section.


The farm population of Genesee County is almost exclusively native- born white.


It is interesting to note the number of farms in the county operated by their owners. Of this class there are 2.983, or 76 per cent.


One thousand four hundred and thirty-six, or 48 per cent. of them, are reported free of mortgage debt. This is an exceptionally large per- centage. Of the balance, the remarkably low mortgage indebtedness of only 31 per cent. of the entire valuation is carried. Even in the absence

of other statistical figures, these mortgage statements alone would indicate exceptional prosperity among Genesee County farmers.


The largest single crop, and the one produced most generally throughout the entire county, is oats, of which 1,167,501 bushels were produced in 1910, a notably bad crop year, but the latest for which authoritative figures are available. Following closely on this for quantity is corn, with a total of 935,943 bushels ; potatoes come next, with 452,415 bushels, and wheat fourth, with 278,064 bushels. The combined total value of these four crops was in excess of two and one-half million dollars.


Everywhere is an atmosphere of hard work. Everyone takes work seriously and as a matter of course. There is no false pride about it, and no failure to realize its importance and its necessity. Rich farmers' wives and sons and daughters take pride in their fine butter, their eggs, their vegetables, their chickens and their stock. The relations between the people of the farms and the people of the towns are most cordial. The farmers deposit their savings in the local banks, and deal in the local stores.


This directory is published in the belief that it will serve to acquaint the residents of one end of the county with those of the other. We believe it to be accurate. We realize, however, that even in the most carefully compiled and printed books certain errors are bound to appear, and we apologize in advance for any such that may be found by our subscribers.

Troublesome Pests


Hessian Fly


Frequent warnings to speed the plow in order that the food supply shall not suffer, may induce some to begin seeding the winter wheat shortly after small grain is harvested, or immediately after the corn is removed and placed in the silo. And that is just why the bug editor is inclined to say, "wait a while."


It is only by waiting that the crop can be made secure against the ravages of the Hessian fly, an insect which causes more damage to the wheat crop in the United States than any other insect pest. During seasons when the fly is especially abundant, hundreds of thousands of acres of wheat are either totally de- stroyed or so badly injured that the yield is reduced fifty to seventy-five per cent. Money losses run far up into the millions.


Disking stubble ground, or burning stubble immediately after harvesting the grain, thorough preparation of the seed- bed, late seeding and the use of good seed, are effective measures for controll- ing the pest in winter-wheat growing regions. A trap crop of wheat may be sown immediately after harvest and disked under later in the fall before seeding the main crop. In springwheat growing sections, late seeding will not apply; on the contrary, the earlier it is sown in the spring, the less it seems to suffer from this pest.


The general rule for winter-wheat seeding is that there should be a differ- ence of one day for each ten miles of difference in latitude, and seeding should be approximately one day earlier for each 100 feet of increase in elevation. There is usually, however, a period of several weeks in all the winter-wheat area where sowing may take place with about equal results. This period is longer as one proceeds to the southward.


Grasshopper


After seventeen years of study the Kansas grasshopper has been reduced to a harmless quantity. The grasshoppers that do the damage are native. That is, they develop and perpetuate themselves on one farm; they do not move about. Of course, no one should confuse these native grasshoppers with the hordes of small red ones that used to sweep down from the North in armies. The latter, raised in arid land, are forced to migrate to obtain food.


In the counties that provide the ma- terials, poison is spread on the farms. The formula used is the following, ob- tained after years of experimenting: No. 1. Two and a half pounds Paris green or white arsenic ; fifty pounds bran (mix these dry). No. 2. Six oranges or lemons, chopped up fine, rind and all; four quarts syrup; five gallons water (mix these three together thoroughly). Mix Nos. 1 and 2, then add sufficient water to make a wet mash.


The lemon and orange in the mixture . attract the grasshoppers, who find it irresistible and deadly. A scientific count showed that from two-thirds to three- quarters had been killed.


Alfalfa should be disked and cross- harrowed early in the spring as soon as the frost leaves the ground. This throws out the eggs of the grasshoppers, to be destroyed by the weather and eaten by the birds. This method of culture, first advocated by the University of Kansas, not only lessens the number of grass- hoppers, but also has been proved to in- crease the yield of the alfalfa fully one- third. Scatter the poison, disk the fields and say "Good-bye" to the Kansas grasshopper.

R & P Tractor and Republic Motor Trucks


T HE R & P TRACTOR is right because it embodies the design, workmanship and materials that make it right. There is nothing experimental in its make-up-proved out under ab- normal tests-trials that no practical user could or would possibly make. The R & P tractor bears the stamp of approval placed there by men who know every phase of tractor needs.


The double track laying double traction wheel makes its own roadbed and lays a broad solid iron track on which the wheels roll. It lays this track in conformity with the contour of the road or field. The sure-footed track sections are held against the steel wheel tires by means of springs, which insure the wheels running smoothly over the track. This means that engine and the R & P double reduction internal gear drive always operate without handicap and that the maximum draw bar pull is always assured.


GENESEE COUNTY


T THE REPUBLIC TRUCK is known everywhere and there is a size for every truck need, from 12 ton to 5 ton capacity. The Republic Motor Truck Co. has the largest exclusive truck factory in the world and are still forging ahead. The new 1919 models are better than ever. Don't regret that you did not buy a Republic, by investigating the Republic before you purchase. Farm bodies a specialty.
