Let us improve our community by
substituting self-starters for cranks.

That old straw stack moved back to
the field and spread evenly will pay
bountifully for your pains.

By adding green stuff, fruit and
dairy products to our food, We vv‘lll
furnish plenty of “spark” to fully com—
bust the other things we eat.

When will our, civilization be prop-
erly balanced? Rural population in-
creased three per cent while city pop-
ulation was jumping twenty-nine per

cent.
HE thousands of
- readers of the
Fall‘s): or Michigan Farmer who
Palltlcs have a keen interest
at M.A.C.?‘ in the welfare of the

Michigan Agricultural
College, have read with regret the cur-
rent press reports indicating a serious
clash between prominent members of
the State Board of Ag'iculture and
President Friday. This regret has
doubtless been accentuated. by the na—
ture of the reports, which allege that
a secret meeting of members of the
board was held at the ollice of one 01‘
their number, during President Fri-
day’s absence from the state last week,
at which his retirement was discussed
and agreed upon. Later reports in-
clude denials of the action. but seem
to fully substantiate the discussion of
the retirement, since an associate of
one of the members in farm organiza—
tion work, who was designated to
‘ speak for him in a published interview,
defended the alleged action by stating
that the farmers of the state were dis-
«satisfied with President. Friday’s poli-
cies and program.

Briefly stated, this program was di-
rected toward the elimination of waste
which would cheapen the cost of pro—
duction on Michigan farms. and the de-
velopment of Michigan markets for
the products of Michigan farms, or the

  

home markets with the consequent
,elimination of waste in transportation
. and distribution. Whether it- is true
that the farmers of the state are op-

welfare of the institution for the ben-

of far greater import to the farmers of
the state than any or ‘all of (be per-

these extreme high figures were .a dan-

with ordinary insight.

We are just now passing through a

period of depression such as occurs at

tenvals in the live stock business,
and which wise investors are in the
habit of taking advantage of. Careful
investments in pure-bfed live stockat
the present time can hardly fail to
lead to better things ahead. For like
reasons, the man who already has
good animals! will do well to give Care-
ful attention to the increase of his
herd, hiding the time when, as a seller
,he will be in a position to command
profitable prices.

Fortunate is he who is prepared now

I happened to know that this man

Two neighbors have joined with this

Potatoes, we are told, will not be
abandoned, but will be planted in mg
ulai iotation with other crops needed
to keep the cows. Sweet clover, al-
falfa and corn. will be prominent in
this crop list. '

Our prediction is that,_ 1n the course
of five years, this farmer will look
back to his potato crop of 1922 as
most valuable because it set him to
thinking and 'was the means of lining
him up on the right side of the dairy
cow and of starting him in 'diversified

THIS is hard to say somethin’ about,

’cause you never know how the
weather is goin' to be, and you don’t
care how it was except to remember

so you kin tell the youngsters what ‘

big snow stonns there was when
Grandpop Was a pup.

Seems like the weather we are hav-
havin’ now has lost its wigor and
witality, accordin’ to the Grandpops of
today. But it' just kinda looks to‘ me
that the May snow storm we got lately
in our n'eck of the woods shows the
weather musta got a graftin’ of monk-.
ey glands or such like, and got its
youth renewed.

There“ ain’t nothin’ whats’ talked
about more'n the weather, ’cause
there ain’t nothin’ :_
what is so nice to
start a conversa~
shun with. It’s a
newtra] subject.
And it’s all right.‘
’cause it helps
you, to find out

For inst. . when '
you say, “This is nice weather, ain't
it?” And the other fellow says, .“Yes,

but I- think it’s goin’ to rain," right
away you know he is a fellow what
notices the thorns more'n the roses.
He is what you call a. pessimist. Then
if you say, kinda nice-like, “Yes, but
I think the rain will be good for the
crops, ” he’ll know that yOu kin see the
bright side of everything. even a bald
head.

In these days when the matrimonial
condishuns of folks changes so quick,
you don’t always know what to say
to the lady friends you meet. So, you
kin. say that the weather is nice and
the lady will say, i‘Yes, it’s just like,
the weather was when I left my last
husband.”.' Then you got a subject

and it stands to reason that a manu-

facturer who has had years of experi-
ence in the business, the preper ma-
chinery for the grinding and mixing

can put out a ;muchj_better mixture

than the local- painter, who buys his

:material and mixes it on the job.

In many dist1 1cts throughout the
country the competition in bidding on
jObs has become so keen between lo-
cal painters that in order to keep up
the standard of wages they have been

forced to sacrifice the quality of the

material used and speed the work up
'to a point where it is impossible to
do a thoiough job. ‘
, This adulteratiOn can be quite eas-
ily accomplished by a painter who
mixes hisown‘ paint and has some
knowledge of the many kinds._of cheap
materials that are being" used. ,
These materials are found on the
market under many different names.
The raw material principally used in
the manufacture of, these adulterations
is aslfollows: Carbonate of lime or
chalk white from the chalk pits of
England and France. Chalk contains
magnesia, silica and clay. Paint con—

Sulphate of lime or gypsum (also
known as plasterof Pails), is used

extensively to adulterate zinc white.

This can also be detected in the same
manner, as it does not work as fleely
under the brush as the pure zinc or

Baryta is a White stone found in veins
with ores of lead, silver and mercury.
This white stone is ground to a very

then the water is run off and a pure
white substance is left in the bottom
of the tank. This is removed, dried,
and ground again and is now ready
for use.

In this form it is known as sulphate
of baryta, and is used to adulterate
both white lead and zinc. Baryta slides
free from under the brush and makes
a good paint, its only bad feature be-
ing the fact that it is less opaque, and
does not covei as good as an all- lead

binder required to pioduce a good
lasting job, and that is the 1aw pure
linseed oil.

However, there an: a great many:
substitutes being used today by paint;
ers in doing cheap work. The cheap-.
est and poorest of these is a by-prod—’
uct of crude petroleum. This oil is
doctored up with dryers and called
various names. ‘ * ‘

A job done with this kind of oil will
look fine while it is fresh, but at the. ,
end of thirty days will have the ap-
peaiance of a job 01 calsomining.

Fish oil is sometimes used to adul-
Inate .linseed oil. In this case the
binding qualities of your linseed oil‘is'
weakened in proportion to the amount
of fish oil used.

The only substitute for linseed oil
on the market. that has any value as
a paint oil is the true soya-bean oil.
However, most of the so-called soya—
bean oils sold to painters is merely
the residue left after extracting the
finer grades for cooking oils. The one
bad feature of the soya—bean product 1’
is that it, is a very slow dryer. This ‘
makes it necessary to doctor it with
artificial dryers.

When red lead,

     
  

  

litheroge, or Japan“
dryers are used, the quality of the.
paint is impaired. Tungate or cobalt ' 1.
dryers give the best results with soya- '
bean oils.

The most important feature in get- ;
ting a good job of painting done is to .. V 5
see to it that all surfaces to be paint— if
ed are first properly prepared.

All scale and blister should be re—
moved with a steel scraper or steel
brushf All surfaces where the old
paint is decomposml so that it rubs
upon the hand should be gone over
thoroughly with a steel brush or a
good stiff scrubbing-brush. If a good
grade of paint is now used and well
brushed in on the first coat, you will
have a job of painting that will last
and look well when the cheap jobs
are being done again.

The Farmer with a good big job wants
a good engine just as much as he wants
a good separator.

Good, strong, steady power is just as
fiecessary, as a good separator. A lack
of steady power means .poor threshing,
poor separation and poor cleaning-

You do not want a threshing outfit that
breaks down or has to stop and wait
for steam, letting hands stand idle at
your expense.

You work hard to plant, grow and har-
vest a crop and you do not want it wasted.

of the legislature. but to date has not
received the signature of the gover-
nor and there seems to be consider-

ought to know, whether he will ever
Sign it or not. It is hinted that by ve-
toiug the bill he. will rebuke Senator
Case for standing so strongly for the
gasoline tax and opposing the weight

Dairymen Get Laws. .

In a, legislative session when many
’important bills were lost in the jam,
the organized dairy interests 01' the
state were/ successful in securing the.
passage of all the legislation which
they sponsored. Perhaps this is ex—
plained by the fact that they concen-

trated on three hills and saw them
through until the finish.
The “filled 1111' 1:” bill. which prob,

ably attracted the widest publicity,
prohibits the manufacture and sale of
filled milk in Michigan‘ and supple-
ments the national Voight bill on this
subject ‘

Another bill of especial ”interest to
the dairymen provides for state licens-
ing of all manufacturers of ice cream
and gives-the state commissioner of
agriculture authority to suspend such
licenses if the manufacturers do not
live up to the provisions of the law
and tile rules and regulations which he
establishes.

The third dairy bill sets up definite
standards for rat and moisture content
of Michigan cheese and requires hou—
est labeling of the product. The oper-
ation of all of these laws should re-
sult in the use of more genuine dairy
products and a stimulation of the pub-
lic demand for Michigangrown choése,‘
ice_ cream and milk products.

Probably the most. important legis«'
lative issue confronting the live stock
industry in Michigan was relative to‘

a

the five-year campaign for the eradi— .: -

cation of bovine tuberculosis within:
the state. A bill was paSsed to allow
for country cooperation in 'carrying on;
the campaigns and to reduce the max-4
imum state rewards on condemned cat-w
tie to $30 for a grade and $60 for a.
pure—bred. Two hundred and fifty th0u~
sand dollars a year was appropriated
to pay such state rewards. .This
amount is not enough to allow forear-
rying on the campaigns in all'of the
counties that 'have requested. this
work, but there is some probability
that the state administrative board
will advance additionalmfunds from the
state treasury. The regular appropri-
ation for the State Department of Ag-
riculture contains sufficient amounts
to allow for the supervision of the
bovine tuberculosis eradication work.

Under the terms of another bill
feeder sheep were exempted from the
provisions of the law requiring dipping
for all sheep brought Into the state.

A measure was enacted to promote»
the health ol"Michigan bees by éstab~
lashing quarantine regulations and

STABLING COWS IN 3UMMER

 

FOR the past ten years I have been;
follgvrlng the practice 01: stabling
my cows at night during the summer.
I think it pays. ‘ 4 ‘

For years I have félu the need of

producing more stable manure to build ,
, up my son.

While I use agconsider-
able «commercial fertilizer with my

. crops, I can net get away from the
. idea that stable manure is the best

fertilizer for the farmer. to use.
By, stabling- my cows at night dur-
ing the summar ,I-have been able to

I. more than double my‘manurial output.
Last season the manure made ‘from

the cows' stable during the Summer
covered over seven acres of land with
a top-dressing previous to sowing the
wheat. Had I allowed my cows to go
back to pasture at night I would have
lost most of this manure; _-
Stabling the cows increases the la-
bor someWhat, but I am very sure ‘that

7 the manure pays for the labor several
. times over.

I use all the bedding in

DAIRY PRODUCTS GROW POPU-

OTWITHSTANDING the increaSe

in :the production of dairy prod-
.nets in this count1 y, the statistical sit-
'uatiOn appears to be in better condi-
tion from a producers standpoint than
a quarter of a century ago. In 1890
the annual per capita Consumption of
1milk amounted to twenty-two gallons.
In 1920 the Consumption had practical-

rly doubled, it then being forty- three
' gallons per capita.

Then in a single
"year, from 1920 to 1921, the Consump-

tion per person increased to- 1‘orty-nine;
If; this

increase should continue, the use of

GROCERY ORDER.

A salesman, taking orders for groc-

TENANT AT WILL.

 

Forty- five yeals ago M1 A. bought a
building 01: the school board and, not
having a suitable place to put it the
city officials gave him permission to
set it on ground that had been plotted
1'01 :1 sl1',eet but had never been used
as such, as the high school campus is
back of same and lenced Some,wisl1-
ing to show their authority, want to
compel Mr. G. to give up possession
Has Mr. G. any hold on this ground by
1ight of possession?—«T H.

BEAN PODS vs. CORN FODDER.

 

I have a large quantity of bean pods
which I intend to feed to my cows. I
would like to know their food value
as compared to (30111 fodder. At what
test should I keep my- cream to re-
r'eivePthe best results du1ing winter?

Bean pods 01 bean straw; that is,
the bean plant after seed is threshed
out, is considered much superior to
cornstalks as food for dairy cows. The
bean plant is a legume, and contains
a larger percentage of protein than
the corn plant, and as. home—grown
plants and grains do not contain suf-
ficient protein to make a balanced i’a-
tion for cows giving milk, clover hay,
bean straw or pods are considered
more valuable than carbonaceous
plants like.corn. The fact is, one sup-
plements the other. Both are needed,
but the one containing the‘Igreater per-
other
the more valuable.
But the other things are not always
Bean pods are liable to be
worth very little as food from the fact
that the beans were very ripe when
harvested and from wthe fact that, many
of them are practically ruined in cur-
ing. If the beans are harvested as
early as possible and the weather is-
favorable for curing, bean pods may
be a very good substitute for clover
hay; but ordinarily they are not worth

. ' one~halfras much. However, the same
. ‘- criticism can be applied “to cornstalks.
‘ ' "Some are good feed, others are almost
' worthless.-

It is evident if you set your sep—_

REQUIREMENTS 11-011 SELLING.

 

What laws would one have to com-
ply with in order to put up and sell
veterinaiy medicine; such as blood
powders ointments and liniments?—
A. W. H. -

No one can prescribe for a given
case other than a registered veter-
inary or pharmacist but we find no re-
quirement for the isSuance of a license
to sell proprietary medicines at whole-
sale. -—Rood.

DESCENT.

 

What share has a half-sister in a
halfobrother’s estate? The half-brother,
a bachelor. has three own brothers. In
order to have an assessment changed
on the assessment rolls, is it necessary
to have the deeds recorded?—~Reader.

The parents. if living, inherit. But
hall blood takes the same share as
whole blood, except that if the proper-
ty descended to the deceased only
those of the blood of the ancestor can
take. The supervisor will change the
assessment on request—Rood.

 

LINE TREES.

The fruit belongs to the person on
whose land the trunk stands. The
party over’whose land the limbs hang
may cut them off after notice to the
owner to remove them.

 

CLOVER SEED WASTE USED AS
MANURE.

 

A I have a chance, at an elevator, to
get a quantity of waste from the clean-
ing of clover seed. I suppose several
klnds, of weed seeds and light seeds of
clover, to use as a fertilizer on my
farm. Do you think it would be safe
to use such stuff after it has laid in
a pile out of doors for a couple of
years, and is heated and rotted some.
Do you think there still would be dan-
ger of the weed seeds germinating and
growing?——~P.I

It is doubtful if composting would
destroy the germination of weed seeds
in this "waste. Iti’would have to be
very thoroughly done. However, that
should not prevent you from using it
in the manner yous,speak of. if~you
think it will pay for the labor involved
in hauling and composting. You will
always have weeds, and a few more
could be destroyed by cultivatmn at
the same time with little or no extra 'I
expense. ,

AN IMPROVED MORELLO CHERRY.

 

HE Chase sour cherry,.believed to

have originated near Riga, Mon-
roe county, New York, has proved so
satisfactory on the grounds of the Ex-
periment Station at Geneva, that the
station fruit I specialists are recom-
mending that it be planted in place of

cherry for ~NOrth America. The Chase
is described as being of the same type
of cherry. as the Morello but with few—
or faults.

“The ti'ees‘o't' the Chase are larger,
healthier," more spreading, and the
branches do not droop as do those of
Morello,” says the station horticultur-
lst. “The leaves are larger and the
fruit better distributed. The cherries
are larger, possess the same dark col-
or‘and shape ,of the Morello, except
with. a deepercavity; and ripen a lit-
tle earlier, but are much milder in

out of hand than the sour, astringen

In their partiality for Firestone Gum-Dipped l:
Cords, the majority of farmers in America are in- . ‘ :3
l

 
          

fiucnced by the knowledge that this name has . if?
meant Most Miles per Dollar for over twenty
years. They have the facts to justify their con-
fidence in these tires.

For uncertain weather and for all conditions of
roads, the farmer wants a safe, sure hold. This.
he has in the powerful gripping angles of the
Firestone tread; it presents the right angle of re-
siStanCe against swerve. And the toughness of
the rubber makes this tread slower to wear—re-
taining its non-skid effectiveness for thousands
of miles.

In the past six months the demand for Firestone
Gum-Dipped Cords has increased 194%over the
same period one year ago—proof that the public
has found genuine economy and satisfaction in
these reliable tires.

is the usual argument as to who is at fault.

MR. FARMER if you have invested from $500 to $3, 000 in an au-
tomobile, can you afford to take the risk with the increasing danger
upon all highways and city streets of the state? Why not insure in
the pioneer mutual that is now sta1 ting its ninth season. of success
and therelore is 01 ganized to giw

WISH to take this opportunity to

thank all the many farmers Who
responded to our requests tor infor-
matibn through this department. The
response has been most generous and
beyond my expectation. The interest
being taken in the replies makes it
seem desirable to keep the good work
up durilsgt’he summer mOnths. What
do you sa One good farmer tells
me that the little diversion occasioned
by thinking on the subjects suggested,
and the writing of the letters, has

much‘ more than usual, even though
he is Working with far less help than

DRIVES AROUND FIELD IN DRILL-
'ING.

 

ONE way of saving minutes is to

drill a field by driving around the
field instead of going 'back and forth
across it. I find the work can be
done much quicker that Way. The
drill discs will not have to be raised,
and by keeping one- of the horses fol
lowing the Wheel track the work can
be done very satisfactorily. When fin-
ishing make a round from the center
of the field to each corner to fill in
the spaces at the turn.———R. M. Carroll,

Sharp Economy

ANY farmers do not realize the tremendous waste due to wrong
lubrication. They no not charge against the motor oil such mat-
,. ters as scored cylinders —— overheating —— too much carbon — too

much exhaust smoke—too high consumption of gas-

Yet the right grade of Polarine'—-indicated in the chart frequently corrects
all these troubles. Polarine means economy in operation, as well as added

flexibility and power.

’ The reason why Polarine is good, begins with fundamentals. Polarine is

made from selected crudeswhigh in lubricating value. Polarine is manu-
factured in modern refineries. It 18 made according to the findings of the
world’s leading petroleum chemists 1n co- operation with the designers of
the very tractors for which the oil is intended.

Use

It is tested, scientifically, in hundreds

of tests— in all kinds of engines— un- .

der all field conditions.

Polarine is dependable at all motor
speeds—at all temperatures—fibecause
it holds together. It maintains its body,
does not disintegrate under pressure,
will correctly lubricate your tractor

THE PERFECT MOTOR OIL

Grades

at all times, provided the grade

Polarine lS elastic. It forms a perfect
cushion, an unbroken film between the
moving metal parts. Yet it offers mini- ‘
mum resistance to motion and maxi-
mum flexibility. Change your motor
oil very frequently and use Polarine.

Guarding Again Navel Ill.

We are expectingthe arrival of a
couple ‘of new little colts i11"a short
time. This is no uncommon thing with
us, but among the dozens of them that
have arrived in recent years, we have
twice .made the mistake of having the
foaling on dirt floors with resultant
losses.

Dirt flbors are satisfactory for many
purposes but they are not good for
baby colts to. lie on. The soil around
barnyards and stables is full of the
deadly germs of tetanus and joint ill.
These germs gain ready entrance to
the circulation through flesh wounds
of horses or the unhealed navels of
new-born ,colts. ~
To guard against such infection we
shall arrange to have the colts foaled
on clean board floors heavily bedded
with straw, or on clean pastures away
from the buildings, and as a farther
precaution. secure from our; veterinar-
ian a preparation that we can apply
to the navel as a disinfectant and an
aid to healing. We consider this a
measure of prevention, which in the
case of new-born colts is the only sat-
isfactory treatment, and in the ab-
sence of which thousands of them are

 

 

’ doomed to a brief existence.

7' OSHouLb'cRow MO'RE‘VSU-GAR.

 

Y OUR letter of the twenty-eighth at
hand. I am very glad to hear that
someone is favorable to the further
development of American-grown, sugar~
Sugar: is a? crop of the farmer, it is“
not made, it is grown, it isa product
of the soil, a child of sunshine and
rain, born of old Mother Earth and
tenderly cared for by the farmer, just
as corn and wheatand rye and cats
are. .

It should be considered by the peo~
‘ple and by the legislature as a farm
ci'Op, not as a manufactured article.
.We consumed last year 5,700,000
tons of sugar; wegrew 615,000 tons‘
in beets; we grew about 250,000 tons
in cane; the remainder of it we bought.

When the greatbulk of our Ameri—
can—grown sugar had been sold and
eaten, which was;by February 1, 1923.
and we were compelled to go to for:
eigners for our supply for the remaind<
er of the year, the price began to soar.
()ur farmers received no benefit. Our
sugar “threshing machine” men receiv-
ed no benefit. We will get no relief-
until American sugar again comes on
the market in the fall. We are in the
hands of foreigners for our sugar just
as we are in the hands of foreigners
for our supply of rubber.

We do not have to be in their pow—
er. Injunctions against sugar exchang-
es in this country will not get us out.
Traders can immediately start up
again in Havana or London. Why
should we be dependent upon foreign
ers for something we can grow our-
selves? VVould we buy vegetables if 7
We had them in our own back yard?.
Could they hold us up on prices if we
grew enough of the vegetables to sup
ply ourselves? Is it not about time we
in this country should grow American
sugar on American farms for Amerh
cans? -

Michigan and Ohio need' annually
one billion pounds of sugar. These
two states grow 240,000,000 pounds.
Should we not, as farmers and agri—
c-ulturists, use every means to grow
what. we eat, eat what we grow?

I am asking you as, an American,_a
farmer, a citizen of Michigan, to get.
facts and figures and the truth and go
with us in the attempt to make Amer-
ican markets safe for American'
farmers. ‘

Senator Capper was right when ~he
said, “the only way for the United
States to prevent sugar famines and
resulting high prices was to cultivate
sugar production in this country.”

That is‘ why he voted for a tariff on
sugar. Yours, C. H. Allen. '

LIFE’S HARVEST ]
By Hugh chhart

How do you build my rugged, youth
At the peak of your strength today

With kindly deeds on the ways of truth
That count when you’re old and

gray?

Or is that strength a mighty whip
That sears where the weaker fall

And mocks: the word of Holy Writ
Where the meek inherit all?

A chasm yawns in the path of Youth
’Tis scan’d with a careless glance
Do you boldly take the depths forsooth,
As you stalk along with chance?

How fares it now you hoary head
As you sink in your chair alone?
Are you content’with the life you've led
The h,arvest you garner home?
But why alone now, hoary head
Do you pas-s the latter days
Why is the stranger here instead

0f your own, with gentle ways?
Mayhap it was a tyrant ruled
In your checrless home and bare
And the love that'was, has' waned and
cooled .
Now, the .far-off fields are fair.

Let us turn away, ’tis sad,to see;
May the hand 'of time move on

And bear .this truth to you and me,
That our futures- must be won!

What does the wealth of kings avail,
Can it heal the broken dove

Or bring us cheer in thp evening vale
Like the soothing hand of love?
Go wisely build, my' manly lad,

And my bright eyed lass, today
That proud you ’ll be of your life, and
glad;
The time when you’re old and gray.

 

 

newcomers. At once the peaceful

scene. broke into activity.

But when they had come within a
quarter of a mile ol.‘ the two horses,
they stopped. A white horse that made
Queen think of \Vhiteblack, tied to a
sorrel workhorse, running as fast as
they could under the circumstances,
were coming toward them, by fits and
starts. The white horse, as he came
011, kept stepping backward and rais-
ing his ..head every once in “a while.
only to leap forward again a i‘eW'pac-
es. - Always as he leaped forward

something dragged him back by the

head. They would run on together for
a short, distance and then the same
thing would happen again.

When they got very near, in spite of
her interest. Queen’s fear of the scent
of man which clung to them got the
better of her and she led away till the
apparition was out of sight. There
the herd waited for its reappearance.
When they did appear the herd fled
again. This they kept up for the
greater part of the day. Toward evo-

he had great difficulty in breathing,
took the opportunity during the 1110-
ment’s lest to biace his body with his
liont legs against the pulling ol the
white. one. The white one, driven by
some fear, began pulling and tugging
as soon as he had caught his breath;
but he couldn‘t budge the old fellow
an inch. Queen advanced l‘eari‘ully.
The scent of man, despite the fact
that there was no .man about, worried
her even as the growing certainty
that these were her old companions
drew her toward them. Finally she
ventured near enough to touch the
white nose that came forward a few
inches to 'meet hers. White-black it
was! Poor, abused White-black, cov-
erd with barn dirt, his sides fallen in
through struggle and lack of sufficient
food.

A touch of the old sorrel’s nose
brought him to his proper place in her
mind and Queen ran from one to the
other feeling vaguely that the spell
of the dirty bani was still holding
both of them in captivity, and tiying

of their being dani-

 

 

 

to arrive at some plan of; theiping them ‘
yet not having the faintest ideaI of‘

what to do.

HE old sorrel. was by fax-the weak--

'er one of the tWO. , He was 'evi-
dently. just show. exhausted, His poor

old sides expanded and contracted r‘apn
idly and his dinty flan-ks were literally:
wet ‘with’ foamy perspiration. Thoughs-a

VVhite-biack took advantage of their
halt and grazed as far as the entangle-
ment- of stiaps that held him fast to.
his mate would allow, the ol'd’sorrel
made no attempt to eat. His harness
had slipped down his side and one of
hi s tront legs was caught in a. loop in
one 01(the straps that hung from his
neck.

The weary old sorrel had hardly re-

.ga'nvd his breath, when Queen spied a.

man on horseback coming after the
pair. The herd dashed away tothe
north while White-black, dragging the
exhausted sorrel behind him, brought
up the rear. The old sorrel did the
best he could. The lines tying his
bridle to White-black’s bridle pulled
painfully at his lips, the corners of
which were red with blood. Strength
was ebbing rapidly horn-him and he
moved through space as if he were
dazed.

Suddenly one of his front legs went
into a badger hole. The old fellow
went down with a groan. The groan
was immediately followed by several
shaip, successive snaps and VVhite-
black was l'l'ef. from his poor, wretch-
ed. old mate. And the poor old sorrel,
too, was free, free from future agony.

The hanging straps impeded White-
lilack’s flight, but the darkness came
to his rescue. The herd had ceased.
running. The hoof beats of the man's
saddle pony were dying away in the
distance. By morning when the man
reappeared , on ' the horizon, White-1
black, still burdened by his heavy har-
ness. was free enough to be able to
keep up with, the herd, for what was
left of the lines, stepped upon ’50
many times duiing the night, now
hung above his knees.

For nioie than a week, the man per-
sisted in his lutile attempt to catch
the white horse; then, because his
saddle pony was completely exhausted,
racing daily with the Weight on his
back, he gave tip the chase with. a.
vicious hope that White-black would
sti an ile himself in the hainess he can
ried with him, and a curse upon the
wild westein broncOs that weie “no
good anyway.’

But White- black had no inclination
to pass out of existence that way, nor
did his notion of value coincide with
that of his would—be owner. He did?
everything'he could think of doing. to

Yet they had ample reason for hating.r

So it is evident that complexion is a
‘ matter of very special importance, and
that- the disfiguring skin disease known
l as Acne, blotc‘hing the face with pimp-

al distress, even though it does not
very seriously impair One’s physical
powers.

Most young people who suffer with
this "complaint and are anxious to have
i" it remedied spend too much time on
the face and too little on the rest of
the’skin. They’vwill massage the face
'for twenty minutes, but do not wish
to give five to the coirered parts. They
must remember that the skin of the
face Will not respond kindly to treat—

SALT RHEUM.

 

 

I have had salt rheum on my hands
for six years.‘ Have used all the salves
and medicines I can think of, but there
is no improvement: 1 am advised by
a neighbor to drink sulphur. ls there
any harm in it‘I—Mrs. E. L.

It would not be likely to do you
harm if you did not drink too much
nor keep it up too long, but neither is
it at alllikely that it would do you
any good. Sulphur has been known
to cure the trouble. -»So have a hun—
dred other remedies. You wouldhave
a- sad time trying all of them. Salt.
rheum is a form of eczema: It is hard

tained by having the peculiarities of
your particular case carefully studied
by a physician who knows by study
and experience the remedies that are
most applicable.

Dear Uncle Frank: ~ . . .

I have'beeln,"workin' your contests
every time, dad had t em‘ right quite
often, so I thought I‘would send one in.
Why didn’t youhave the picturé of

' the Waste basket 'taken while you . {I}

Were at your'desk? 'Don't’you think.
that would have been lots .nicer ?' I do,
anyway. . ' '

box for this time.—+Another niece,
Rose Anna Reimipk, Holland; Mich,
R. 3, Box 12. ‘

If the waste basket and I were in

the same picture it might be hard [0
tell” which is which. ‘ I think the waste
basket looks better alone.

Dear Uncle. Frank:

Well, here I am again. All of you

myself, must sit up and take notice
now. , —

I have been quite a while getting
around to write this letter. but I
thought I would let, things quiet down
a little. Some of you bob~haired girls
have been talking quite strong, but it
takes more than an army of girls to
change my mind. .

It just makes me mad when I, meet
a girl with bobbed-hair, knickers on,
and the powder about a quarter of an
inch thick.

Uncle Frank, just think how awful
it would look if we put on dresses and
all of the powder that would stick on,
and then go parading up and down the
streets. It would look as if we had
better go to an asylum for a while. "

Jean Evans, of Fenwick,‘ Mich, owes
me a piece of pie, because all \._the
painting I do—is painting pictures. My
mother does not use powder and paint
and my sister is not old enough to
uso it. _ .

I thank very much all of those girls
who were on my side. ' ,. ~

I hope this letter does not see the
waste-basket, for some girls would
think they had won an easy battle.

Good-Bye, Uncle Frankond cousins.
Something tells me I have said enough.
——Ha0rld Coles. ‘

I was just beginning to‘wonder it
you had any come back to you at all,
Harold. This letter certainly shows'
you have. It really would look odd if
you and I put on dresses and paint,
and walked down the street. We
wouldn’t. have to go to thevasylum;
theywould take us there. But girls
have privileges in'ithat respect. we do
not have. . . ‘ ‘ '

Dear Uncle Frank:- , ‘ _
.I hope I win-this time. .I have never
won-before, but I am V going' to try
again as others have done. . —

I have light hair. I had it ’curléd

You have the wrong idea about try-
ing the contests. Nothing would be
accomplished if we all thought there
was "no use trying.

Dear Uncle Frank:

We have thirty-four turkeys, forty-
four chickens and three little ducks.
They are just like little pets, beCaqse
Ithey 'fo_llow me almost every place

I have a, little dog, his name is Bill.
He has whiskers, so we call him Billy
Whiskers. I think he is the cutest
little dog. When I was writing this

I read it to mys‘elf.——Your niece, Mar-

It is a sure sign that you are kind
when animals like" you so well. It
must be nice to have a. dog so willing
to help you in your correspondence.

new baby sister. -'After-~gazlng for? a

few minutes he said, “Why, Mamma,

r .Mother and children were sitting

outdoors on a summer night. Mother
said, “How nice and cool it is out
doors. Her
Marion, said, “Don’t you wish our,
house was outdoors, Mother?”—Abbie
Brouwer, Kalamazoo, Mich.

 

This is one of the most amusing in-
cidents I have ever heard. It may not
appeal to you as it does to me, but if
you could have seen the man of whom
I write, it certainly would. He is tall,
honey, homely, and not very smart.
One night he was out of doors, and
it. Was real. dark. He had his arm
stretched out before him so as not to
run into anything, when to his misfor-
tune his arms went 'at each side of a
post and his poor nose found the post
first. .

I wish you could have seen the look
that was on his. face as he came in
the house, rubbing his nose furiously,
and honestly said: “Well, by gel],
that’s the first time [ever knew my
nose was longer than my arms.”——Mar-
jory Hellman, Six Lakes, Mich,

Remarkable Ekperience of Mrs.
\C.M. Bradshaw in Prevent— '
ing White Diarrhea

 

The following letter will no doubt
be of utmost interest to poultry raiscrs
who have had serious losses from
White Diarrhea. We will let Mrs-
Bradshaw tell of her experience in her
own words: .
“Gentlemen: I see reports ‘of so
many losing their ,little chicks with
White Diarrhea, so thought I would
tell.my experience. I used to lose a
great many from this cause, tried.
many remedies and was about dis-
couraged. As a last resort I’sent to
the‘ Walker Remedy Co., Dept. 507. .
Waterloo, Iowa, for their Walko White
Diarrhea Remedy. I used two 50c
packages; raised 300 White Wyandottes
and never lost one or had one sick
after giving the medicine, and my
chickens are larger and healthier than
ever before. I have found this com-
pany thoroughly reliable and always
get the remedy by return mail—Mrs.
C. M. Bradshaw, Beaconsfield, Iowa.”

Cause of White Diarrhea

White Diarrhea is caused by the
Bacillus Bacterium Pullorum. This
germ is transmitted to the baby chick
through the yolk of the newly hatched
egg. Readers are warned to beware
of White Diarrhea. Don’t wait until
it kills half your chicks. Take the
“stitch in time that saves nine.” Re-
member, there is scarcely a hatch
without some infected chicks. Don't
let these few infect your entire flock. '
Prevent it. Give Walko in all drinking
water for the first two weeks and you
won’t lose one chick where you lost
hundreds before. These letters prove it:

Never Lost a Single Chick

. Mrs. L. L. Tam, Burnetts Creek,
Ind., writes: “I have lost my shared
chicks from White Diarrhea. Finally
I sent for two packages of Walko. I
raised over 500 chicks and I never lost
a single chick from White Diarrhea.
Walko not only prevents White Diar—
rhea, but it gives the chicks strength
and vigor; they develop quicker and.
feather earlier.”

Never Lost one After First Dose

Mrs. Ethel Rhoadcs, Shenandoah,
Iowa, writes: “My first incubator
chicks, when but a few days old, he-
gan to die by the dozens with White
Diarrhea. _I tried different remedies
and was about discouraged with the
chicken business. Finally I sent to the
Walker Remedy Co., Waterloo, Iowa,
for a box of their Walko White Diar-
rhea Remedy. It’s just the only thing
for this terrible disease. We raised
700 thrifty, healthy chicks and never
lost a single chick after the first dose."

You Run No Risk

We will send Walko White Dian.
rhea Remedy entirely at our risk
—-postage prepaid—so you can see for
y urself what a wonder-working rem-
e y it is for White Diarrhea in. baby
chicks. So you can prove-33 thou-r
sands have proven—that it will stop
your losses and double, treble, even,
quadruple your profits. Send 50c for
package of Walko— give it in all drink-
ing water for the first two weeks and
'watch results. You’ll find you won’t
lose one chick where you lost bun--
dreds before. It’s a positive fact. We
guarantee it. The Leavitt & Johnson
National Bank, the oldest and strong-
est bank in Waterloo, Iowa, stands
back of this guarantee. You run no
risk. If you don’t find it the greatest
little chick saver you ever used, your
money. will be instantly refunded.
WALKER 'REMEDY CO., Dept. 507,

Waterloo, Iowa.

Send mc‘ the [ ] 56c regular size (or [ ]
81 economical large size) package of Walko
White Dimhes Remedy to try at your risk.
Send it on your positive guarantee to in?
etamly refund my money if not satisfied in
every way. I up enclosing 50c (or-.31.”).

§praying Reduces Tip-burn and Hop-
_ 5' _ pebburn. .

The potato leaf hopper is that small
:greenish insectthat so often lilies out
Tin clouds When 'you walk through the
’v’lnesi"*lt is responsible for serious
damage ’td'the leaves Which curl at
the edges and die as a result of the
attack of the pest. This injury» is
knownas hopper-burn. What is knowu
as ._‘5tip-burn” is a very similar type of
injury and is supposedly caused by
excessive transpiration of moisture of
the leaves during the dry weather.
This injury has undoubtedly been con»
fused to some extent, at least in the
past, with hopper-burn. Since 1911 it
is estimated that in Michigan hopper—
burn has reduced the 01‘0p of late po-
tatoes twenty-five per cent, and of
early potatoes fifty per cent.

Thoroughly coating. the leaves. es-
pecially the under side, with a copper
«spray is an effective means of reduc-
ing the amount of both hopper-burn

and, tip-burn, and preventing loss in,

yield. In Ohio during 1921 hopper-burn
-was the principal foliage trouble
against which spraying was directed.
Forty-seven potato growers in nine
counties made sixty tests on one-half
acre or more. The average increase
from Spraying in all these tests was
thirty-one bushels per acre. Four ap-
plications of spray gave a net gain of
$55.70 per acre.
More Growers Should Spray.

In spite of this evidence only a small
percentage of the total potato acreage
' is sprayed at an and much of this ‘is
not sprayed in an efficient manner.
Although good potato spraying is be-
ing developed to a high degree in
Pennsylvania, it is estimated that not
.more than about five per cent of the
totalgacreage of the state was sprayed
last year and it is not probable that
many-other states can showla higher
percentage.

_Why is it, that; a larger proportion
of potato growers do not spray thor-
oughly if they spray at all?‘ In the
writer’s opinion, the use ‘of’ poison
sprays alone and low pressure one-
nozzle-to-the-row sprayers are largely
responsible. Potatoes were first spray—
ed with Paris green or other arsen-
icals for the control of the Colorado
potato. beetle, and .spray machines
were deveIOped which are fairly well
adaptedto applying strong doses of
poison for the bugs. Such machines
give disappointing results, however, in
"applying a copper-spray for the con-
trol. ofblight, leaf-hoppers and flea-
beetles.' To prevent .the attacks 01‘:
these pests it is essential that a fine‘
mist be applied to both sides of the
leaves at high pressure, thus insuring,
a complete covering of the foliage.
Repeated failures to! control anything
but potato bugs with such machines
have led" many growers to condemn
potato spraying as unprofitable with-
out ever' having tried really good po-
tato spraying. There is more to spray-

. i113 than simply poi_soning..potato.bugs.v
Combine: the poisoneach' time with a

" gmwer. : ~ ’

sidered‘ the; standard. If the mixture
is applied often enough and with suffi-

evidence to indicate that the 4—4—50
formula will produce very satisfactory
results.
Commercial Preparations.

There are on the market several pre-
pared 'materials which are effective
substitutes for Bordeaux mixture.
Some of them contain a poison for po-
tato beetles. These are put out in both
paste and powder form. '. All the evi-
dence to date pointsto thetact“ that a
powdered Bordeaux is not as efficient
as the taste form. This is largely'due
to the tact that the spreading ‘ andi

 

 

sticking qualities are reduced by the}-

»destruction of the “Bordeaux films” inf
the drying process. When mixing withl

‘ . . ‘
water these films never regain their

original form and the ‘material there- _

fore fails to spread and stick as
as the paste. '

Commercial pastes should be pur-
chased on a basis of the amount of
copper they contain. Other factors be-l
ing the same, the higher the percent—
age of metallic copper guaranteed, tliel
more efficient they will prove. A finelE
physical condition, freedom l'rOm gritl
and high sticking power are also qual-'
ities to be demanded in the selectioni

well

w.

of prepared mixtures.

A poisonshould always be included}
in at least the first one or two .appll».
cations of any copper spray for potato
beetles, and il’ apliis appears later on,
nicotine sulphate should be added.

How-to Obtain Maximum Results.

There is just one way
maximum results from potato spray-Q
ing, and that is to apply the right ma—‘
terials frequently and at the right time
under high pressure and with the noz—
zles arranged so as to spray both sides
of the leaves. There is no wayto get
around this, and disappointing results
are almost sure to follow if these re-
quirements are not observed.

‘ Spray Early.

Do not wait till bugs become numer—
ous. Spray as soon as the first beetles
appear, and again when the eggs begin
to hatch‘, using a poison in a good,
well-made Bordeaux spray.

Spray Often.

Once or twice is not enough. Three
or four times should be considered the
minimum. ll“ late blight becomes ser-
ious it may pay to spray five to eight
times.

Use Enough Material.

From fifty to one hundred gallons of
the spray mixture per acre are requir-
ed to thoroughly protect the foliage.
The exact amount will depend some—
what on the size of the plants but less
than fifty gallons will not do a thor-
ough job.

Spray with the Right Material.

Use a combined fungicide and poi-
son, It doesn’t pay to spray for bugs
alone. Be sure that you use only a.
material that is well prepared, is free

to obtain

 

from grit and won’t clog the nozzles,
but will stickto the leaves and can be
depended upon to give results.

Get a Good Sprayer.

Buy a Machine . which‘ will do the I

business. Unless it is the hand type
ol.‘ machine, equip it with three noz-
zles to the row, using as fine nozzles
as possible. Cover both sides of every
leaf and stem and you can’t go wrong
in expecting good results.

Spraying will pay better in some
years than in» others. ,It must be look-
ed 'upon, however, as crop insurance.

Sore Mouth.——I have a cow Which
seems to be in perfect health, gives

If you will make a careful examination

Wood. or wire lodged between two of
her teeth, or she ~ may have a split
tooth. A removal of the cause is the
remedy.

Navel-lit—We have a flock of sheep
and have been feeding them all the
ensilage they will eat, also mixed hay
and cornstalks. Soon after the birth
of lambs they are taken with diarrhea
and usually die before they are three
days old. What is the cause of their
death? H. S., Harrison, Mich—This
is. not such a. common disease in lambs
as in the foal, but outbreaks do ocCur
in sheep. The bacillus bipolaris sep-,
ticus, and the bacillus coli communis.
seem responsible for the. presence of
this disease. They gain entrance to
the umbilicus (navel) at birth or when
the ,cord is ruptured. In some cases,
it is thought the organisms have en-
tered the circulatory system before
birth.
nant ewes to a clean place which has
recently been disinfected. The pus
may be squeezed out of the umbilicus
of the affected lamb and hydrogen per-
oxide injected, to be followed by tinc-
ture. of iodine, turpentine or chinosol,
or lysol, or any of the coal—tar prepar-
ations. Give a single duse of castor
oil, but in the treatment of valuable
lambs, bacterins may be used. Don’t
neglect to clean and treat navel of
every lamb at birth, and before the
lamb is allowed to suck its mother,
thoroughly clean her filthy udder.
Partial Loss of Power.——We have a
pig, six months old, which shows con-
siderable weakness in hind quarters.
I notice some white Spots on body. His
appetite is not very good. S. B. L.,
Hadley, Mich—«Perhaps I had better

and roots. Growing pigs require a
certain amount of exercise. and their

sures sufficient elimination, and don’t

Atrophy—Contracted Feet—I would
like to know the cause of contracted
feet in horses, and how it can be
avoided—J. V., Ladysmith, 'VVis.—The
foot of the horse is undoubtedly the
most important part of the animal, so

WHEAT

The wheat crop has not improved as
~ it should with the arrival of moisture
'é' and more {avorable growing weather.
Complaints are coming again from
3*; Oklahoma and Texas as well as from

> Illinois, Indiana and Ohio. The crop
is already late and needs warm grow-
ing weather. Spring wheat seeding
has just been completed which is lat-
€12 . er than the usual date, indicating. that
i . . ‘ the crop will be below normal unless
r ' weather conditions are more favorable
'p than usual. The cash demand for
g“ wheat has shown but little change.
‘- The visible supply in the United States
and Canada decreased around 0,000.-
, 000 bushels in the previous Week, with
prospects that it will continue to
‘ shrink rather rapidly until new wheat
becomes available.

CORN & OATS

Receipts of corn at the primary mar-
kets declined sharply again last week
and they are now only about twenty
per cent of the volume moving a few
weeks ago. The country has sold more

4 freely in the last few days, however,
and the aftersplanting run wili start
before long. Demand for 'corn in com-
mercial channels remains broad, al-
though export sales are limited. Prices
advanced during the week, recovering
most of the loss since late April but
sagged again at the close. Some com-
plaints that recent rains have delayed
planting unduly and that seed has rot-
ted in the ground are being made, but
prospects are for a larger acreage than
last year and a few days of good grow-
ing weather would change the tenor of
the reports. Oats crop prospects 1e-
main fairly favorable, with new oats
from Texas expected on the market
within thirty days.

SEEDS

Although clover seed prices declined
to a new low level last week, the mar-
ket now shows greater stability and
promises to hold within a compara-
tively small range until the size of the
9 5 new crop is better known. Timothy
' seed shows greater strength than red

clover.
FEEDS

Practically all kinds of byproduct
. feeds were dull and declined in pro-
~.;ducing and jobbing- markets last week. .

Labm is high and scalce On account
of cold weather, pig and lamb crops
have suffered. The sugar beet acreage
is the largest ever planted in this
county. FaIm implements are selling

Oakland County, May 14. ——The
heavy fall of snow that visited this dis-
trict May 8—9 was of gloat value to
the field crops of this locality. It
made up in a large measure the lack
of moisture. While the freezing weath-
er that immediately followed did a lit-
tle damage to early iruit, the detri~
ment to farmers is small since fruit

tion—G. E.
