APPRAISAL ORDER The county auditor was directed to ■•ppraise the estate of Janie Wilson. As this is written it appears the battle over the seating of Senator Bilbo may so delay the organizing o f the Senate that in turn the Joint Session of Gngress, scheduled for Monday of this week to hear the pres- sident deliver his annual message on the State of the Union, will have to be postponed. Representive Harold Knutson of Minnesota, who will be the new chair­ man of the Way and Means Com­ mittee, has introduced a bill to re­ duce the Federal individual income tax by twenty per cent. This action is in keeping with a recommendat­ ion o f the Republican Tax Study Committee made toward the end of the last session of Congress, and with the official Republican Party pledges mads during the recent cam­ paign. As was excepted, a whole armful o f labor reform bills were introduced in the House on the opening day of APPROVE TRANFERS C. I. Powell executor of the estate >£ Kathryn Q. Hackett, was authoriz­ ed to transfer real estate. Clara Bell Dyamond and Joel Lee Allen, execu- 'ors o f the estate of Janie Wilson, re­ ceived similar authority in another case. WILL ADMITTED The will of C. E. Thuma was ad­ mitted to probate. APPOINTMENTS Probate court appointed the fol­ lowing persons: Eva Dannaker, as administratrix of the estate of An­ drew Dannaker,” late of Yellow Springs, under $500 bond; Bertha Thuma as executrix, estate o f C, E, Tliuma, late o f Jamestown, without bond. County School Board Will Reorganise o Reorganizing of the Greene County hoard of education will take place in the office of Supt. S ,/0» Liming, Jan, 18. Present officers are Paul W.

Protect Fruit Trees Against Rodents Small fruit trees should be pro­ vided with same protection against rodents during the winter months. Orchardmen report large numbers of orchard mice and severe damage may be expected if control measures are not used. .Wire mesh cylinders- around the trees .have given good protection. The cylinders should be imbedded in the soil for 2 or 3 inches and should be -enough larger than the tree so that they will last for 5 or 6 years. Other types of protection are veneer and cardboard cylinders. Trees may also be wrapped,with paper, howevert- the paper must be removed in the spring. An alcohol resin paint has been foundf effective as a protection a- gainst rabbit injury. -Pruning some limbs; particlariy - the more -succul enj: growth, and leaving them under the(trees early in the winter affords protection by, providing food for rah bits.
