‘ Farmer sion, at least, in





the eastern and cen-





tral states, has passed; the fever of ‘

extreme anxiety and hostility to eve- _





rything that was, has gone; while the

important thing that remains is for

the men to get on their feet again.





With the sick person, the days of 5





regaining strength are fraught with

danger. Then, the need of rest comes

face to face with the desire to be

doing, something. Friends, who have

been denied admission to the sick

room,7nowl often stay too long and use

the patient’s strength; Those who‘ had

charge of the case'are worn with the

long vigils and relax their attention,





thus furnishing conditionswhich may .





seriously interfere with recovery.



Is it not now somewhat the same

with the farmer? Does he not need

rest? Has he not been overworked,

both physically and mentally, while

facing the compulsion of keeping ever-

lastingly at it? Have not friends

opened to him vast financial resources

of which he may partake too freely,

loading himself with debts too great

to be liquidated? Will net the neglect

of that old sound principle of econ-

omy, of growing much for the home

markets, and little to be sent far, fur-

nish conditions which might bring on

a relapse?



In fact, should not these convales-

cent r'days lie-spent thoughtfully and

courageously to give every opportu-

nity to work out a complete cure?

The United States is both an im-

porter and an exporter of beans, but

normally the trade balance is on the

import side so that we consume more

beans than we raise.



This year’s crop of 14,936,000 bush-

els is about 1,500,000 bushels more

than were consumed in the United

States in the preceding year and a

like amount above the five-year aver-





age. Just how much our foreign trade





will add to or take from the domestic

supply- is conjectural. During the last

crop year, we imported practically 1,-

600,000, bushels more than we export-





ed in spite of a supposedly high tariff .





of one and three-fourths cent a pound

on white beans. But, the five-year av-

erage import balance was only 553, 000

bushels. .

rections so that exports which go

mostly to Cuba, Mexico, Canada and.

to northern Europe for relief work are

likely to be larger than they Were

port balance is apt to resemble the

five-year average rather than that of

about 15,500,000 bushels for domestic

consumption, or about 2,000,000 bush-

els more than last-year or the five-

year average.

Trade conditions have been quite

favorable thus far this year. The 1922

crop was well cleaned 11p before new

beans came on the market. Most folks

can afford to eat all they want so that

the demand from wholesale grocers

has been satisfactory. Elevators, hand-

icapped by a shortage of labor to run

picking machines, have been sold up

to their capacity to get beans ready

for shipment. Bad weather caused

some delay and growers are reluctant

to sell whenever prices drop, compell-

ing elevators to bid up the market to

get enough beans to fill their orders.

PLANTING REPORTS”.





 





VIDENCE is available in the U. S.



Department of Agriculture that

With the intentions to plant data pub-

lished last’ spring and in August, farm-

er's generally made readjustments in

acreage in an efiort to prevent over

or under-planting of crops and to bring

the supply of crops into better corre-

lation with demand.

' It is pointed out by the department





that the intentions report is neitlzm‘ a





guess nor a forecast of the acreage

that is‘to be planted. It is a report.

of what is in the minds of farmers to

to enabling farmers to make read jufil‘

stanCes, including tobacco, Irish pota-

their planting.





FARMS rb',}»"SUSTAIN. ~Race.





 





F the thitf’tyi'million farm popula—



tibn, as compared with the same

number of urban population; the num-

ber of children under ten years of age

on farms is approximately two million

more than in the cities. In other

'words, there-are 7,700,000-children on

farms, as compared to 5,700,000 in cit-

ies of equivalent population.





It would appear, according to Dr.

Galpin, of the department of agricul-

ture, that the ' burd‘en of supporting

and educating'young America falls

most heavily on the farm population.

The disparity, however, gradually

diminishes until the children reach

twenty years'ofage, when the figures

begin to show more people of produc-

ing age in the cities than on farms.

We, therefore, have 1 the _ situation

where farmers, bearthe cost of rais-

ing and educating children, and then

deliver them as a finished product for

production in the cities.

Tfle Ending: :71 Mzcfizgmz of C fleyter H. Gray, Farm Bureau Field Representatives

By Frank A. Wilken





Ill? agricultulal forces of the

country are-now getting so or-

ganized thatlit is possible to get

» a consensus ofhp‘ini-on and a unity of

effoxt on things which are of interest

to agriculture and to the country as

a whole. 1



In the past, legislative effort in be-

hall of the farmerhas been along the.

lines thought out by a few, but now,

stlaw votes and field tlips axe made

to find out just what the man back

home 1eally wants. What they want

is then used as a p1ogran1 for legisla~

tive effort.



It, is along :such lines that the Amer-

ican Farm Bureau is working. It has

Gray Silver as its representative'at

\Vashington, who is constantly work—

ing for things which are for the bet-

terment of rural conditions. But be-

fore Mr. Silver and his associates

start action. they find out what the

tiller of the soil wants them to get

busy on.



In this regard it is the prime duty

of Mr. Chester H. Gray, field repre-

sentative of the legislative depart

mom of the American Farm Bureau

to find what the predominating

thought of the farmers are on certain

questions. His method of getting this

information. is to travel through the

vaiious sections of the countiy meet-

ing groups of faimers and discussing

with them in an unp1ejudiced way, the

matters under consideration.



Mr. Gray has spent, considerable





time in the states of the middle west, -





and is now one. trip to California,

Stopping in each state on the way to

get the thought of the people 011 1egis~

lative matters. Then he will return

to Minnesota to make a thorough can-

vass. That state is supposed to be

the center of ‘a radical group of which

the new Senat01 Magnus Johnson is

the leader





v. , However, of greatest interest tog our

3 readeg B the fact ,that 'Mr. Gray has .





inst. , eted .a fifteen 'dayS’ tour of

5187‘ State."-

S‘ 7‘





He had two meetingsa '





day, with attendance ranging from six

to over two hundred. His findings

will probably reflect the opinions of

many of our readers.



On this trip Mr. Gray wanted to find

the sentiment 011 four major subjects:

Immigration, cr0p -insurance, price

fixing and the consumption ‘tax. His

side issues were the truth-in-fabric

movement and the, Ford Muscle Shoals

proposition. _



The present agtitation with refer-

ence to immigration is to keep the

per cent of incoming aliens to three

per cent as it is, but to change the

basis 01' this apportionment from our

census figures of 1910 to those of

1890. The reason f01' a movement in

favor of this change is that in’ 1910 a

large share of our immigrants were

from thesouthern European countries,

while in 1890 the incoming of\ the

North Europe people predominate-d,



\Vith the coming of the people from

southern Europe radicalism andun—

rest has incxeased while, when the

northern Europe folks came, We had

an inflow of people of industrious and

constructive trends. To change the

basis of apportionment from.1910.. to

1890 we would get more of the thrifty-





worker kind andgmake good farmers

as well as good workers in industry.

Without exception, Mr Gray found the

Michigan farmers in favor' of making

this change. _



In crop insurance Mr. Gray had to

do quite. a little explaining to put the

idea across, as it was new.- When he

asked for a- vote, the hands went up

1ather hesitantly, while on other ques-.

tions the expression of sentiment was

quick and definite.



The purpose in this matter is to get

the fedelal government to pass a law

making it legal to form mutual 010p

insuiance companies. These compa-

nies would be formed .on a commodity

basis. In other words, in a potatopro-

ducing area there would be a mutual

potato crop insurance company, and

in the wheat section a wheat insur-

ance company would be doing busi—

ness. Because of working on a crop

area basis, state lines would have to

be obliterated.



To make this propositionsafeand

sound, the insurance would be on a

basis of actual damage or cost of crop

to date of injury, instead of on the

crop at its mature marketing value.

F01 instance, if a potato crop was in-

basis of the Senator Brookhart and .





jured one month after planting, the

farmer would receIVe insurance to pay

him the cost of his seed and labor,

inteiest and takes on- land, or any

other cests up to the time of injury.





~To put the insurance on the basis of





what the crop would have brought if





. it had maturedf would put the matter





in a class with speculation, which

would be unsafe and unsound



Almost without exception Michigan

farmeis wele not in favor of price fix-

ing, although he gave them an impar-





He told the





other pro-arguments for it, as well as

the presentation of those who do not

believe in it.





' .Mr. Gray is sure that the farmers‘

do not want to be made- subjects of





charity by any form of price/fixing.

He also finds the opinion prevailing

that price fixing of certain commodi—

ties would cause an over-production of

them and would put a great burden on

the government in its endeavor to

maintain the fixed prices. This in

turn would put a greater tax burden

on the peeple.





The consumption tax was also un- ‘





favorably received. This is— nothing

but the old sales tax proposition in

reversed form, and it is‘thought that





"to put a consumption tax on luxuries





would be just a’feeder fer those he-





. hind the tax proposition to later have





consumption taxes put on farm prod-

ucts



The farmers still want the truth-in

fabrics fight continued. They are not

satisfied with the way the United

States Senate handled the Copper-

French truth-in-fabrlcs bill during the

last session. 2

This is Henry Ford’s vision of the Fordson.





Not a mere machine of so much horsepower, so

many cylinders or so much drawbar pull. All are

important. But much more than.that——an oppor-

tunity to make farm life, your life, more produc-

tive and more worth living.





This vision of a better day on the farm has become

more than a dream. The Fordson has made farm-

ing more pleasant and profitable.





How well the spirit of the builder is moulded into

the Fordson through years of patient testing is

proven by experience of a host of owners.





With operations‘fir’ganized on'a more profitable

basis, work donewhen it should be, labors lighter

in proportion to results, the drudgery gone, life is

really more pleasant on Fordson Farms.

KILLING SH EEP DOGS.





We keep our sheep in the orchard

and have been having trouble with

dogs killing some and injui'ing others.

I saved two by getting up one night.

In the afternoon of Sunday, October

7, I heard a dog in the orchard, took





\a gun and ran down there, getting





there just. as the sheep were on the

run with the dog behind them. When

the sheep turned in a different direc-

tion, I shot the dog. The owner has

started (suit for $100. What chance

has he, according to law? Did I have

a right to shoot the dog?—-J.-M. S.



“Any person may kill any dog which

he sees in the act of pursuing, worry

or wounding any live stock or'attack-

ing persons, and there shall be no lia—

bility of such person in damages or

busy periods of the. year on the

farm, the fall harvest is the busiest.



The harvest of~ hay and grain is a





I-busy one, to be sure, so is planting

and harvest weather ahead. 'When

we come to the fall harvest the days

grow_ shorter and shorter. Each day





sees old winter one step nearer, and





our motto is “Put not off till tomor~

row what may be done today, for to-

morrow you may freeze.”



There is still much work to be done





' before we are ready forithe freezing

had: The big job with us this fall is

the harvest of the beet crop.



0n Francisco Farm we have about

thirteen acres in the beet field. Across

the road Brother Edd has a field of

twenty acres. We have combined

forces in the harvest, one team doing

the lifting and giving the other two

teams, which are hauling steadily, a

tow out of the field. The roads ' are

hard surfaced all the way and over

four miles from field to factory, so the

boys do not like to bother with small





, loads.

PARTITIONIBY LIFE TENANT.





 





I am .an old, woman. My husband

died, leaving a 200-acre farm‘ to me

for a lifetime. Two of the children-

have not sold their share, but the oth-

er three have disposed of theirs. This



.year I have not made.the taxes off





from the farm. Now I want to know ‘





what I am to do. Some tell me it

would be unlawful for me to cut the

timber from the place for the taxes.

—Mrs, W. B. L



The cutting of timber would be

waste unless consented to by the re-

mainder men. ‘ But by Compiled Laws

1915,_ Section 12716, “Whenever any

person shall be seized or possessed

of any lands, tenements or heredita-

ments conveyed by deed or devised

by will to such person for life, with or

without power of appointment by will

or sale, or of any lands, tenements, or

hereditaments devised to such person

in trust, without power of sale, the

circuit court in chanCery for the coun-

ty where such property is situated, ,

may on the petition of such person

having a life estate, orderpthat such

land, ten'cments and hereditaments, or

any part thereof be sold, under the

direction of the court, whenever by a

proper showing by witnesses produced

before the court it shall satisfactorily

appear that the rights of the interest-

ed parties will otherwise be (leopar-

dized.”—-Rood. § §





 





TESTIMONY NECESSARY.





 





Is it necessary to have witnesses to

prove one’s charges in order to get a

divorce? Could I stop my husband

from selling stock from the farm?—

Mrs. M. D.





The charges of the bill must be

proved by testimony and a decree will





not be given on the unsupported tes- _





timony of the plaintiff only. The hus-

band _can sell his personal property

without the wife joining in the sale-'—

Rood.





Cmp ;





The one field, of thirteen acres is

about all in. , There are two more

days in October as I write this, and

not more than one of them will be

required to finish it. ’ '





You who have followed these notes

will remember that the rows in this

field this year were planted twenty—

eight inches apart. We have been iii,-

terested to learn if the yield would

come up to expectations. 3





It has been a very good year for

bcets in ourcommunity except for a

month of extreme dry weather in sum--

mer,‘when the beets seemed to stand

still. Then the rains came and the

beets registered a finegrowth. '



_ The effect of the dry weather, which

we hoped might have been overcome,

is apparent, however, in a shorter root

than is usual. The weights will tally

up "about exactly ten tons per acre,

which is about as much as weare in

the habit of raising on an average on

Wherever toughness is re-

grade baseball. It helps .to

make the rubber bladders of

footballs and basketballs, and

is in tennis and other rubber

balls.



Lead is also in many base-

ball bats and in the heads of

wooden golf clubs, because it

adds weight and helps to bal-

ance them. Pulverized lead is

used in some golf balls to give

them the necessary weight.

BATTERIES





The first cost is low—

the last cost is lowest





This advertisement is addressed particularly to

those who have long recognized the Exide as the

most desirable battery, but have felt they :ould

not afford the original outlay.





Now, no man need deny himself an Exide.

The present prices are surprisingly low—and the

'quality of the famous Exide, of course, remains

unchanged. \





. Because the Exide gives such long service, it

has always been the most economical in the end.

At present prices, this . economy is so marked

that you cannot afford to ignore it.



The Exide not only gives long service, but

steady service. It is powerful and rugged and

stays right‘on the job in your car, instead of :

taking rests in a repair shop.





You will find an Exide, t 1e right size for your

car, at the nearest Service Station.





Before! putting a new battery in

The tiny rivulets of the ioad had ‘giv‘

image a patch of snow appeared in the ,





xhighway; farther above, Barry could

se‘efthat the white was unbroken, save

forgthe half-erased marks of the two

cars which had made the journey be-

fore him. The motor, like some re-

.freshed animal, roared with a new

power and new energy, vibrant, con-

fide'nt, but the spirit was not echoed

by the man at the wheel. He was in

the midst of a fight that was new to

hint, a struggle against one of the

mightiest things that Nature can

knoiw, the backbone of the Rocky,

mountains—~11 backbone which leered

aDOVe him in threatening, vicious

coldness, which nowhere held sur-

cease; it must be a battle to the end!

’ Up—up——up the, grades grOwing

steadily heavier, the shifting clouds

enveloping him and causing him to

stop at intervals and wait in shiver-

ing: impatience until they should clear

and allow him once more to continue

the struggle. Grayness and sunshine

flittedf about him; one moment his

head was bowed against the sweep of

a snow flurry, driving straight against

him from the higher peaks, the next

the brilliance of mountain sunshine

radiated about him, cheering him, ex-

hilarating him, only to give way to'

the dimness of damp, drifting mists,

which closed in upon him like some

great, gray garment of distress and

held him in its gloomy clutch until

the grade should carry him above it

and into the sun or snow again.

The Inevitable

Highell The machine was roaiing

like a desperate, cornered thing now;

its crawling pace slackening with the

steeper inclines, gaining with the les-

ser raises, then settling once more to

the lagging pace as steepness follow-

ed steepness, or the abruptness of the

curve caused the great, slow-moving

vehicle to lose the momentum gained

after hundreds of feet of struggle.

.Again the engine. boiled, and Barry

‘stood beside it in shivering gratitude

for its warmth. The hills about him

were white now; the pines had lost

their greenness to become black sil-

houettes against the blank, colorless

background. Barry Houston had left

May and warmth and springtime be-





hind, to give way to the clutch of win- ,





ter and the white desert of altitude.





UT withal it was beautiful. Cold,

harassed by dangers that he never



_, before knew couldex‘ist, disheartened

-by the even more precipitous trail

which lay ahead, fighting a battle for

yvhich he was unfitted by experience.

Houston could not help but feel repaid

for it all as he flattened his back

against the hot radiator and, comfort-

ed by the warmth, looked about him.

,The world was his—his to look upon,

to dissect, to survey with the all—see~





ing eyes of tremendous heights, to





view in the perspective of the eagle

and the hawk, to look down upon from

the pinnacles and see, even as a god

vmight see it. Far below lay a tiny,

whole the w011d of vegetation was

sliced off short to give way to the bar-

renness of the white desert, seemed

softened and freed from their appear-

ance of constant suffering in the pur-

suit ol" life. A lake gleamed, set, it

seemed, at an upright angle upon the

very side of a mountain; an ice gorge

glistcned with the scintillatiou of a

million jeWels, a cloud 1‘011ed through

a great crevice like the billowing of

some. soft-colored crepe and tl1en—'





Barry crouched and shivered, then

turned with sudden activity. It all had

faded, faded in the blast of a shrilllng

wind, bringing upon its breast the cut-

ting assault of

yet no less vicious swirl of snow.

Quickly the radiator was drained and

refilled. Once more, huddled in the

driver’s seat, Barry Houston gripped

the wheel and felt the crunching of





sleet and the softer,





instant as a rear wheel raced for a

foothold and gained it just in time.

Thundering below, Barry could hear

the descent of the dirt and small

boulders as they struck against pro-

truding rocks and echoed forth to a

constantly growing sound that seemed

to travel for miles that it might re-

turn ‘with the strength of thunder.

Then for a moment the sun came

again and he stared toward it with

set, anxious eyes. It no longer was

dazzling; it was large and yellow‘and

free from glare. He swerved his gaze

swiftly to the dashboard clock, then

back tothe sun again. Four o’clock!





Yet the great yellow ball was hover-





ing on the brim of Mount Taluchen;

dusk was coming. A frightened glance

showed him the black shadows of the

valleys, the deeper tones of ‘coloring,

the vagueness of the distance which

comes with the end of day.





*XIOUSLY he studied ’his speed-

’ometer as the road stretched out

for a space of a few hundred feet for

safety. Five miles—only five miles in

a space of time that on level country.

could have accounted for a hundred.

Five miles and the route book teld

plainly that there were four more to

go before the summit was reached.

The sentence was not finished. A

sudden, clattering roar had came from

beneath the hood, a clanking jungle

Which told him that his. eyes had

sought the 'oil gauge too, late—the

shattering, agonizing cacophony of a

broken connecting rod. the inevitable

result of a missing oil supply and its

consequent burnt bearing. Hopelessly,

dejectedly Barry shut off the engine

pulled to one side of the road—

through sheer force of habit. In his

heart he knew that there could be do

was beyond hope to look for aid up *

the valleys and along the sheer walls

come so warm she can not keep them

covered, even on the' coldest nights.

Can you ,tell me how they may be re-

lieved? Is there anything to take or

The burning. is because of venous

congestion due to.the‘_varicose veins,

and aggravated by the broken arches.

If she is overweight, as is usual in

such cases,\the first step is to go on

a judicious diet ‘that will bring‘ her

weight down to normal. This in itself

- will do much to relieve both condi-

. tions. The varicose veins may be so

far advanced as to need the support

of elastic bandages or stockings.

Fallen arches may often be relieved

by h‘aving the shoes built up along the

inner edge, thus throwing the weight

on the outside of the foot. For a trou—

ble of this kind it is no good to‘take

medicines or rub on lotions. Relief

comes only from curingthe condition

that is at the bottom of it. '

HAIR FALLS OUT.





l Will you kindly tell me the cause

and cure for falling hair? I am twenty

years of age and apparently in good

health. I rub my scalp each night be-

".4 help, as my hair comes out by the

'ljhere is no disputing the fact that.

many of us have an inherited tenden-l

ey to part with our hair long before‘



‘ it has outlived its usefulness. In such

cases the only treatment is'regular,

persistent care, beginning at a very



, early age. This care should include



f a shampoo twice a month and thors



. ough brushing with a well—bristled,

.. rather stiff brush twice daily. For a

J 5 young woman only twenty years old it

is not likely that this falling out of

the hair means a permanent loss. Ill-

ness, especially if accompanied by

fever; lack of proper nutrition; over-

work and’ worry, will all cause temp-

orary loss of hair. Vv'hen normal con-

ditions are restored it comes back

with vigor. I recommend bobbing the

hair in this case; it will help to in-

crease its vigor and the new crop will

come in more quickly. Brush the hair

for at least five minutes night and;

morning. A solution of twenty grains

. of resorcin to one ounce of water will

)4 .make a good shampoo to keep down

i, . the dandruff.

N apple a day keeps the doctor

away," has become .quite an es-

tablished health maxim This





sugar composition of both nutritive

and medical value, helps to tone the

system to a keener digestion.



But fiust how to serve the apple so

that it will be most tempting to the

family appetite and induce them to

consume their health quota of this

fruit is often a problem to mother.

When they become tired of just apple

sauce or baked.apples, try some of

these tested apple recipes to add va-

riety.



Baked Apple Dumplings.



Cut rich pie. crust into six-inch

squares. In the center of each place

a small apple pared and cored, in

which .has been placed one tablespoon—

ful of sugar, a little cinnamon and a

whole clove. Wet the edges of the

pastry with white of an egg and fold

over the apple and pinch together.

Bake forty minutes in a. moderate ov—

en, and just before removing from the

‘oven brush with white of egg and

sprinkle with sugar. Serve with hard

sauce.



Apple Tapioca.





Soak three-quarters of a. cup of tap-

ioca for one hour and drain. Add two

cups of boiling water and one-half tea-

spoon of salt and cook in a double

boiler until transparent. In a buttered

baking-dish, arrange pared and cored

apples, the. cavities of which have

been filled with sugar and a little cin-

namon. Pour the tapioca over the ap-

ples and bake in a moderate oven un-

til the apples are soft. Serve with

whipped cream. '





Apple Fritters.

Pare and core tart apples and slice

in quarter—inch slices across the ap-





ple. Sprinkle with lemon juice and

powdered sugar. Make a batter of:

1 cup flour 1,9 cup milk

=56 tsp. salt 1 tb. melted butter





2 well-beaten yolks



Into this batter fold the whites of

two well-beaten eggs. Dip the apples

in the batter and fry in deep fat.

When cooked, drain on brown paper

and sprinkle with powdered sugar be-

fore serving.

HOUSE- MANAGER’S TIME HAS

‘ ' CASH VALUE.





 





kind 'of unskilled labor is worth





ithirty cents an heur in the industrial





world. While it is unfair to list mod-

T. has been stated "that: the eludes I





snugly without too





this humble class, it is interesting to

work out the housewifels time on this

basis.





Experts state that seventy per cent

of the house-manager’s time is spent

in and about the kitchen, and esti-

mated that on the basis of an eight-

hour day (though it is in reality much

longer) it has a cash value of $1. 80

a day.





It is wrong to have women spend-'





lng five hours over an ironing board

in a' hot kitchen, when the job-can

be done with ease and speed in one

hour 011 an electric ironing machine.



In like manner, at least two hours

of the home-maker’s time are saved

when washing is done electrically—a





cash, saving of $31.20 a year in addi- -





tion to the saving in soap and fuel.





“When it comes to sweeping and

cleaning, the electric vacuum cleaner

is recognized as standard equipment.

It saves at least six hours a week,

which is a cash saving of $93 a year

and puts an end to the semi-annual

upheaval known as house-cleaning.



Yet, after all, the cash value of the

housewife’s time is not nearly so im-

portant as her moral and ethical influ-

ence, and the electrificationof house-

hold tasks would make her a better

mother, a better neighbor and a better

citizen.

Every time the hen develops thisma—

ternal instinct she should .be banded

with a celluloid leg band. Witheach

a1 band could be added so that at the

end of the season the b1meeder will

have a. check on éveiy individual in

the flock.





I would suggest breeding only from '





those individuals that, never went

broody but once or twice during the

entire season. .Very frequently the

broody hen will maintain a high pro-

duction into the late fall and evidently

this is exactly what is" occ’urring'in

this flock. It isvan excellent "flock 'of

Barred Rocks that shows a high flock

should be eliminated by 'seg'regating

the hens and mating them to a. cock-

Broodiness is generally indicated by

a heavy skull ‘or a prominent nese

directly in front of the eyes. This





characteristic may also be noted by.

Many people labor under the, delu-

broodiness results. This, however, is

an erroneous idea. BloodineSS is a

PROFESSOR REED SURPRISES’

CREAMERYMEN.





 





IN reviewing changes which recent-

ly have come about in the dairy

field in Michigan, Prof. O. E. Reed, of

the dairy department at M. A. 0., sur-

prised the state creamerymen, in an-

nual session, with the changes which

have come about on our dai1y farms.



No othe1 state, said Professor Reed,

can claim so favorable a showing in

the number of cow- testing associatgons

or in the increased alfalfa acreage.

The state now has seventy—three test-

ing associations and ranks first in a1-

falfa acreage among the states east of

the Mississippi River.



Herds in our pasture lots generally

show distinctive signs of: thoughtful

breeding. Cow-testing associations,

running for some time, show increases

in annual milk production of from

four thousand to seven thousand





, pounds.





GIVE THE COW A FMR CHANCE.





 





ITHOUT question, there are a

large number of unprofitable

COWS in Michigan. However, I am in-





Mfidfihwrgéga?“ :clined to think that the blame does





' not always lie with the cows. I feel





that I am quite safe in saying that





' many cows are producing unprofitably





because they do not get the feed they

should have, nor the care good dairy

stock demand. A wellvbalanced, appe-

tizing ration fed regularly to a cow

that is comfortable and contented

should, with the aid of the scales and

the Babcock test, tell the owner

whether or not the animal ought to

remain in the herd 01 go to the butch—

er.—L. R.





STATE HAS NEW BUTTER CHAM-

PIONS.





 





ICHIGAN has two new Holstein I





state butter producing cham—

pions, according to an announcement

from the advanced registry depart-





ciation of America. Both cows are in

the herd of the State Hospital at Trav-

erse City.



Traverse Colantha \V‘alker is the

new state leader for ten months’ pro-

duction as a full age cow. Her record

is 22, 048.9 pounds of milk containing

864. 32 pounds of buttei-fat, equivalent

to 1,080.4 pounds of butter. This rec-

ord makes her the second highest pro

ducer of butter in her class in the





, United States.





Her barn-mate, Traverse Inka Jo-

hanna 2d, is the new state champion

in the junior four-year—old class for

ten months’ production. 'Her record

is 22,4002 pounds of milk and 764.61

pounds of butter-fat—equal to 908.8

pounds of butter





Hank says, that the best crop the

farmer produces can be grown right





in his head in winter time. He plows -





the' soil With books, barrows it with

his farm» paper, plants it with bulle-





.' tins and then, when the farm is ready

. for another turn, he harvests the crop

with a greater degree of satisfaction

than most other things he .is able to





produce, nowadays.

.WATCH THE EWES AT MATING

TIME.





o ‘





 





HE approach of mating time is- a



season when the ewes need care-

ful Watching. This I do because I

have learned that ewes must be in the

right cendition to aesure their getting

with lamb. , .



In- the fall I go through the flock

noting the flesh condition of each ani-

mal. Ewes below good breeding con-

ditIOn are removed and given extra

feed and care. It not infrequently

happens that some of our best ewes

need this extra attention. ‘





There is no other time of the year

when the breeding ewes respond more

quickly to a. little extra feed than they

do just before the mating season.

Long ago English ,flockmasters discov-

iered that feeding to put flesh on rep-

idly for two or three weeks before

mating, resulted in a much larger

number of twin lambs than where the

mothers were poorly fed. ‘



Another matter should be watched.

Fall pasture is quite sure to keep the

bowels of the sheep loose. As a. result

the manure accumulates on the hind

quarters. This is not only unsanitary

but also sets up an irritation. A sharp

pair ‘of shears will easily out these

straggling tags of wool —Leo C. Rey—

molds.





 





KEEPING DOWN THE COST OF

WOOL.





OME farmers produce» wool at a



cost as low as ten cents a. pound,

while their neighbors are spending as

much as eighty cents to produce the

same quantity. According to exten-

sion specialists in Ohio, this wide var-

iation is not due to luck





A survey of many farms show that

a large flock of sheep can be cared for

with practically the same labor ex-

pense required to look after a. small

flock.





Another considerationis the feeding

of legume hay. The farmers showing

lowest cost included in the sheep ra-

tion twenty-one per cent of alfalfa. and

seventy-nine per cent of clover and

mixed hay. Growers showing. high

cost fed only five per cent of alfalfa,

fifty-five per cent of clover and mixed

hay, and forty per cent of timothy.

Also, the men producing wool cheap-

est raised twice as many lambs to in-





. crease repeipts from the flocks as did





the group producing the wool at high

cost.





 





 





FEE\DING NEW CORN TO HOGS.



AT Forest Grove Farm as soon as



the corn crop is in the shock we

begin husking the grain and feeding

it to the fattening hogs. We have

never encountered any trouble from

the practice, but we always try to go

careful, and not to overfeed at any

time.



I do not know of any feed/that fat-

tening hogs take to any more heartily

than new corn.‘ It being soft, pala-

table and easy to get off the cob, they





relish it with an ever-increasing ap-

petite. .





I do not think the new corn pos-

ssesses the fat-forming qualifies that

hard matured grain possesses, but as

a rule farmers are anxious to begin

fattening their hog crop for the early

fall market when corn is the logical

grain for the purpose. . .



When starting to feed new corn to

my hogs I keep up the regular groundP

feed and, slop ration and keep them"

on good. pasture. .: I; do not think it- a

Citizens’ Mutual Auto ins. Co.,

Howell, Michigan.

Gentlemen:





suit started against me for $10, 000 as

the result of an automobile accident

which occurred the 4th day of August,

near Salem; .‘Qregon,_ in which Mrs

Alice Lenéin' was fatally injured, was

adjusted and dismissed. I wish to say

that, mmwtifeand I are‘greatly pleased

that thisim'att'er has been disposed of.

‘ We have lived- in Michigan a long

time and were taking a trip this sum-

mer, going to Califomia. When this

sad accident occuried in Oregbn, it

.took- then pleasure out of our trip.

When they held the inquest and later

started suit against us, we were very

thankful that-- we had an automobile

insurance policy While we had been

a member of your company fo1 a num~

ber of years we had nevel needed this

protection betl0re. Youl Secretary,

Mr. Robb, came to Oiegon to give his

personal attention to this matter.

From his large expel ience in handling

personal injury claims and his knowl-

edge as a lawyer, we found that he

was able tocope with the attorneys

who had been employed to try this

case against us and now that the mat—

ter has been adjusted so that all part-

ies are satisfied by the payment of a

total expense of $1,961.00, we are

greatly relieved. Any one‘who has

'ever been in-r'an' accident of this kind

can appreciate" the cOnsolation of ser-





We thank your company for the ser—

vices rendered and fox the able way

in which this case was handled.



Sincerely yours,

(Signed) s. B. Stackus.

TUSCOLA COUNTY BREEDERS

HOLD PUBLIC SALE.





HE Cheste1 White swine breeders

of Tuscola county have organized

themselves into an association. They

combined efforts and held a public

sale of their. chosen breed recently.

It was their first attempt along this

line and great things were not looked

for. However, the entire list was dis-

posed of, and at prices that, on the

whole, represented a snug little pre-

mium over the market values. There

are some twenty-five members in this

association and they expect to make

the public sale an annual event. It

makes an ideal, promotion enterprise

and will surely result in much good.

The animals were presented in credit-

able form, and at the prices paid a

good foundation has been laid for

building up a satisfactory clientele:—

It will soon be tax time again and

then a sound of howling, groaning and

gnashing of teeth will be heard in the

WHEAT





7





Wheat prices haVe covered an un-‘





usually narrow;range in the lastitwo

weeks but appear to be about ready

for a substantial advance. Both the

large supply in commercial channels

in this country and abroad, and the

prospect of greater surpluses in ex-

porting countries than importing na-

tions will need are unfavorable influ-

ences but th‘emarket repeatedly has

demonstrated its ability to ignore

them. Outside of Italy and France,

most European countries have taken

as. much wheat from the world’s mar-

ket as last year and non—European

countries, especially Japan and China,

are taking more wheat than expected.





iCORN





Old corn has declined about 25

cents in-the last two weeks and new

corn also'has slumped sharply. More

corn is reaching terminals than a few

weeks ago, and extremely high prices

shut off demand. The market is still

out of line with other grains so that

further declines appear to be in order,

although new,corn may be close to

bottom since producers expect a good

price and the market has reached a.

point at which they are inclined to

crib rather than rush it to market.

W'et weather has delayed husking in

some states. Based on private reports

of the carry-over and the new crop,

the total supply of corn for the ensu—

ing twelve months will be about 3,-





085,000,000 bushels, compared with a). B





five-year ” average of





bushels.





3,158,000.00





canning





 





\

\





beenfllled in many cases and greater



'effort is being made to effect sales.

The wheat feed market seems to have

been subjegt to a great deal of manip-

ulation thi year and feeders and re

tailers declined to stock up at high

prices so that distributors are finding

it difficult to unload. On the other

hand, interior holdings probably are

light so that there is a. latent demand

which would appear on a further de-

cline. -





POULTRY AND EGGS





Colder weather with resultant lim-

ted supplies of fresh eggs so that the

demand fer them could only be filled

with extreme difficulty, buoyed prices

on fresh firsts last week and they

worked to the highest level in months.

That weather conditions in the next





'two months Will be the dominant fac- ,





tor in the held egg situation is the

belief of most dealers. If cold'Weath-

er continues so that receipts, of fresh

eggs diminish, the movement out of

storage will lengthen its stride.

BUTTER





A shortage of fancy fresh butter was

responsible for the advance in prices

last week to the highest levels for the

season. Many buyers who had been

working cautiously we're caught with

depleted supplies and were forced to

turn to the medium scores in order to

satisfy their demands in full. Higher

prices on fresh butter may accelerate

the movement of storage butter, the

distribution of which for October at

the four leading cities was 26 per cent

smaller than during the same month

last year. The new level of prices

makes foreign butter again attractive

to American buyers. About 2,500 casks

of Danish are reported on the way

and as much more is reported schedul-

ed to sail this week.



Prices on 92-score creamery butter

were: Chicago at 51550; New York

501740. In Detroit‘fresh creamery in

tubs sells for 46@'47c.





POTATOES ’





Carlot shipments of‘ potatoes from

producing sections have fallen off

nearly 30 per cent, as compared with

three weeks ago. Arrivals'at consum-





 





ing centers remain heavy, - however,

and prices are only steady with last





week Maine, Minnesota, North Da- $1@





kota, Wisconsin and Michigan are the

leading shippers. Northern round

whites are quoted at 900@$1.50 per

100 pounds sacked and bulk in Chi-

cago, and‘$1.35@1.5_0 in the east. .





APPLES





Carlot shipments of apples from the

producing sections began to decline

last week, but still were abnormally

heavy. Demand is not as keen as

would be'deSirable in view of the

large supply on the market. Prices





are practically steady, hoWever. Mich- ‘





igan and Illinois Jonathans are bring-





ing $5@6 a barrel in the midwestern'





cities. , .

BEANS ,_



The bean market is firm with choice

hand-picked whites quoted at $5.65 per

100 pounds for prompt ship nth-o.

b. Michigan, and $5.50 for November.

Pintos have sold at $5.75. for rompt

f. o. b. Colorado and some at $ .25 for

November, although this quotation ap:

. pears below the prevailing market.

Growers are not selling on the de-

clines so that elevators are obliged to

bid 'up the market in order to get

enough beans to fill their sales, as

the consumptive demand is excellent.





WOOL





Sales of wool last week were at

firm prices, especially on medium to

low wools“ American mills show a

marked trend toward the use of the

latter as fine wools are scarce and

foreign mills are able to undersell our

manufacturers. Mills appear to have

used slightly more wool in September

than in'August, and no let-up in ac~

tivity has been reported recently, im-

ports are far below the rate necessary

to supply our requirements, nearly

three million pounds were cleared for

exoprt week before last, growers in

all sections are holding their wools at

above a parity with the seaboard and

foreign markets show no disposition

to come down to our level. In fact,

Over sixty thousand men have prov—

Be Your Own Boss





Of the 60,000 Sweeney Graduates, I estimate

that 20,000 of them own‘ "garages,“-tire shops,

A Billion Dollar Business





The AUTOMOBILE :BUSINESS is America's

greatest industry. It employs. twice the capital

of the National Banks inth‘e United States.~

In 1922 people paid i' ONE BILLION FOUR

HUNDRED AND NINETY MILLION DOL- ’

LARS for Tires, and over SEVEN HUNDRED .

MILLION DOLLARS for parts and accessories.

Yet this great buSiness is just beginning. In

ten years there will be over 23 milloin pleasure

cars alone.

ily. Trained mechanics are in demand. Hun-

dreds of thousands of men are n‘eedednot only-

as mechanics but as salesmen, garage owners,

tire repairers, dealers, demonstrators, chauf-

ei‘urs, etc. _ . 4 -. .



The smart man will QUIT his job and learn

a SURE TRADE. He will BUILD. A 'BUSI; :

NESS; OF HIS 'OWN.- He will be independent

and not at the mercy of strikes, depressions,





; and circumstances beyond his control.»





There Was-never a. time when a man Should





.consider...his,_future and plan to put. himself on





a sure foundation more opportune than TO-

DAY. Don’t be a wage slave! ' . .
