VOLUME CLXVII DETROIT, NOV. 27, 1926 CURRENT COMMENT N Wednesday of NUMBER I W lNTY-‘I'W 0 film.e last week medals were awarded to a. Master class of twenty Mas- Farmers ter Farmers at Col- umbus, Ohio, by the editorial department of the Ohio Farm- er. Practically the same standards were employed in selecting these Mas- ter Farmers of the Buckeye state as were used last September to determine the members of the 1926 class of Mich- igan’s Master Farmers’ Club. Ohio is the third state to join in this movement, Illinois being the first. Soon, hoWever, Minnesota, Iowa, Ne- braska, North and South Dakotas, Tex- as, and North Carolina will join the list of Master Farmer states. In other words, this movement by the Standard Farm Paper Editorial ' Association promises soon to become national in scope. The idea. of teaching the best types of practical agriculture by the demon- stration method, and of honoring all- around dirt farmers for their achieve- ments along the line of the best agri- cultural practices, for their business ability, home and community life, and the finest citizenship, is meeting with popular favor, as well as with the high- est approbation of our educators. N the United States The more cases of . smallpox are reported Ulflmate each year than in any Goal other nation in the world, with the excep- tion of certain parts of Asia. In an effort to redeem our country from this unenviable condition, official health agencies have designated this month as a period during which we should give serious consideration to the na- ture of smallpox and its prevention. Did your community cooperate in the .‘ “down with diphtheria” campaign that , ‘s instigated last month by the m? discontinuance oedema - - 'siVex-eainapetormemaan :mm for it will be already oi‘geniled to take the association has planned“ But “drive” or not, it is not too late to get behind this campaign to eradicate this enemy that is taking its toll of pre- cious lives each year. There is no more fallaclous notion than that this disease cannot be pre- vented, or if contracted, cured. In the report of over 10,000 cases of smallpox in seventeen states and the District of Columbia, more than ninety per cent of this number afflicted had never been vaccinated; about seven per cent had been vaccinated seven to fifty years previously, leaving less than two per cent who had been vaccinated within seven years prior to, thei1 illness. As a. rule, we are generally apa- thetic toward our health problems, but proverbially, an ounce of prevention is worth a ton of cure. It is the ultimate goal of every wise physician to eradi- cate every preventable disease. What other countries have done in reducing this scourge, we can do. But to ac- complish this, the active cooperation of every layman is necessary. T the meeting of Formulate: executives of land . ra n t colleges 3. t Afllcultur' Washington last week al Policy ”a sound and forward- looking agricultural policy for the United States was form- ulated. Urgent need for a policy that will lift agricultural classes to an economic level with other classes and groups, was freely expressed by these college leaders. In the early history, indeed until very recently, the land grant col- leges were content to devote their ef- forts to efficiency in production. But the time has arrived when a major ac- tivity of these institutions must be re- search work that will give us a more efficient system of distribuitng for ag- ricultural products. Today market hazards are quite as uncertain to the farmer as weather hazards. In many ways, government agencies have rendered assistance to farmers. but so for such agencies have failed to restore the ability of the farmer to compete with other groups. The policy formulatedby these men is comprehensive. As a result of their action, research work in the handling '\ problems encountered or made Where hard-surfacing , we prove uneconOm- 1031, or where less expensive and simpler methods of maintenance are desired. This raises the subject of our great earth road problem—"c. problem for greater in its magnitude, and more sig- nificant as to its economic and social bearing than the improvement ofbour through highways. These dirt roads are the farmers’ business lanes, and they furnish him the avenues for sat- isfying the social life of his family, and for educating his children. The liberation of our rural population is far from being complete, so long as these roads remain unimproved. Our legislature is soon to meet. Mat- ters pertaining to roads then will be under discussion. The time has arriv- ed when through roads, should not re- ceive so much attention that no funds nor time remain for the improvement and maintenance of dirt roads. A bal- anced= program should be worked out. Farmers and farm organizations should insist on this. It is none too early for them to make known their desires to their representatives. "‘9 In this connection, reference should be made to the work being conducted. at Michigan State College looking to- ward the improvement of these sec- ondaxy roads. Here the college on- gineers are working out a practical, thorough-going program for dirt, road’ improvement. Local plans for better ing this class of highways ought to be adopted only after a thorough study and understanding of the infes- tigation made. at East Lansing and elsewhere, to the end of receiving the maximum of road benefit for every dollar of tax money used. OME of our con. . On gressmen have said Getting that if. farmers would ' g only get together and Together decide on what they . wanted, they could get it. It would be fine, from the standpoint of peace of mind, if all farmers could be in accord on mat- ters regarding agriculture, but would it be advisable? An agreement, or a getting together, on any matter, means that a conclu- sion has been reached, and that every- body is contented as far as that mat- tery,” EADE’RS, you won’t want to miss an installment of our new ser- ial, “Tthingdom of St. James,” written by Ben East. Mr. East will be remembered as the author of “The Michigan Mys- which we published last year. especially for this journal, he weaves the threads of mystery,ro— mance, and history of Michigan into a story of gripping interest from the first chapter to the last. Watch for the first installment next week. Into this new serial, written / of agricultural surpluses, equalizatio‘h of prices, stabilization of production and markets, cooperative marketing, government control of the surplus, maintaining an American price for sta- ple farm products, and the migration from farms to the cities, will be un- dertakeu. The land grant colleges should be the leaders in finding the facts and shaping public opinion upon these eco- nomic issues of agriculture. [These questions should be thoroughly analyz- ed and studied from every angle, and the results taken to the farms and market places of the-country. A gen- eral understanding of the facts will enable us to find common ground from which progress can be made.

It reachesno con- clusion but death, and even that, we 1 are uncertain as to being a conclusion. It is the constant differences of opin- ion, and the continual desire for change, that makes for real progress. Progressive people are usually a. dis- contented group, but the opposition they meet from conservatives and oth- ers, makes them prove their assertions as‘they progress. When an influential group of farmers decide to put a prop- .osition across, opposition makes them prove its worthiness, and each time that is done their position is made stronger. ' In the west, the California Fruit ' Growers’Exchange has been very ef- fective in putting the citrus fruit in- dustry on a sound basis. Still, it handles less than three-quarters of the California fruit, but it is such an in-_ .1 finance that it has been of consider- able help to those outside of the or— .1 farmers to come to complete accord 'V on legislative matters are just stalling. ‘ World’s ‘ week, the greet , -Internetional L i v 73 Crests-t Stock Exposition. and Show Grain Show starts "at Chicago. [It will con- tinue until December 4 This is the twenty-seventh session of- what is-con- ceded to be the greatest of ‘all live stock exhibitions. Michigan farm folks have a. special interest in attending the International. The usually large exhibits of grain from this state Will be there. Besides. over 300 head of live stock have been entered by Michigan breeders and feeders. Being so favorably located. Michigan farmers, in particular, ought to make every eflort to attend. To visit this show and go ome without being entertained, informed, and inspired to achieve greater ac- complishments, is as impossible as it is to fall into a lake and not get \wet. One simply cannot avoid these bene. fits, if he comes into the presence of the highest art of these world-famed breed- ers and feeders. Compamre 0U know what that is? Well, I do, and that’s why I’m tellin’ about it, fer I tell about everythin’ I know, and some things I don’t know. Fer inst, ever since I’ ve‘ been a baby I’ve been associatin’ with womin, but still I don't know womin’, but I talk about’ em any- way. Well, this is the way I learnt what composure is. The other day I see a accidunt, one 0’ them six milliun auto accidunts what happen in this country. Well, in this acci- dunt there was a woman. There’s always a woman connected W i t h accidufits, ’cause they’ re one 0' them counter at- tractshuns what is always keepin’ a fellow from mind- ‘ in' his own businuss. Well, this woman was settin’ down cryln’, and I goes up ta her and asts her what the matter was, and she says. "Nothin’, only I’ve completely lost 'my composure.” And I says, “that’s all right. I’ll hunt it for you.” And I did.» In a littul while she says, "What’s the matter with you? Are you crazy?” I says, “No, I’m lookin’ fer your com- posure.” “Ach, you're crazy,” she says, “I just lost my peace of mind." I says, “I see you did—you’ve just giv- en it ta. me.” Then I walked away, ’cause I didn’t wanta get any more pieces 0’ mind flung at me. Now I know compose means ta make, or build up, and compost is got somethin’ ta. do with manure. So, ta compose a compost is somethin’ we farmers know lots about. But, I didn’t just know what composure meant. But I see by Mr. Webster, composure means tranquility, whatever that is. Anyhow, I know tranquilsis quils with- out any feathers on ’em, and that’s why you don’t feel tickuled when you are tranquil. \ Well, anyhow, in the excitemunt 0’ the accidunt, I thought the lady says she lost her compact, but 'when she~ talks ta me and I look at her again, I' was re she don’t use no compact, and I guess all she uses on her face is composure; . anyhOW, way ’causo it’s awful for. me ta: ganization, although they mayinot ac— ' I, knowledge 1 one ' NfiSaturday of this it looked I that I think I’m losin’. my composure now, ' 7 1 ; f... , JV, “,1- e J 9093? 05530299" '_93UJ1V VWWH ; "" have put the farmer. and his fam- -- ily ”within the range of activities ,. of the hardened crooks and thieves of -the city slums. Gangs of thieves are driving the country by day locating farms from which to steal chickens, fhogsfcalves and implements, and on :which they break into the homes and steal money, furniture and other arti- cies having a sale value. A farm-to- /farm survey was made under the di- ' rection of the writer in a number of counties in Illinois and Indiana. In 'this survey the question has been ask- ‘ed,’ “How many chickens have you had stolen during the past year?” The totals are amazing and convincing. In one“ county it was disclosed that during the past year 24,607 chickens .had been stolen. In a. total of ten counties in Illinois and the same num- -ber in Indiana, the reports showed that 246, 942 chickens had been stolen during the past year. The survey further discloses that thousands of hogs and calves, thou- sands of bushels of grain and gallons of gas and oil, thousands of dollars worth of tools and small implements are stolen annually. Illinois and Indiana are not worse than other states. A. recent report from South Dakota tells of a farmer seventy years old who was beaten to death in a chicken house on his farm during the night, when he went to chase away thieves who were stealing his chickens. Every mail brings in reports from Michigan, Ohio, Minne- sota, North and South Dakota, in fact, from everywhere, of lost property, and, ‘ in some cases, loss of life caused by thieves who are stealing farm prop- erty. These thieves work in gangs, and their work is thoroughly organized. Their plans include the location of Practtca/ Saggestt'om For Coméattag Rara/ Crime UTOMOBILES and hard roads ' , By D. 0. Thompson 1 - Manager of Prairie Farmrr '1 Protertz'we Union farm, roads on which to make their get-away, places to hide the loot, meth- ods and places of disposing of it, means of eluding pursuit and fighting their pursuers, and finally when thEy are captured, organized effort to fore-_ stall punishment. Stealing-is so profitable that it pays for the thieves to organize on a busi- includes nearly every article that ex- ists on a farm. From Danville, Illinois, two gangs operated in a large territory in East- ern Illinois ‘and Western Indiana. When the ‘Hensling-Yoho gang of six thieves was caught, it was discovered they had 580 stolen chickens shut up in barns and sheds. Twenty-two coops The Time Seems Fast Approaching when the Unlocked Door on the Farm will be a Thing of the Past. ness basis. One case selected from many proves the point. Three thieves captured at midnight on the roadside about forty miles from St. Louis are now in the penitentiary. At the trial it was shown that they had sold to one poultry dealer in St. Louis 1,038 chickens from December 29, 1925, to February 11, 1926. The smallest num— ber they delivered at any one time was sixty-two; the largest number 114. In the forty days they made thirteen deliveries, averaging eighty stolen chickens each. In Grant county, Indiana, the Mc- Clintock, BOVie and Coffelt gang oper- ated over a large territory and the record of loot stolen and sold by them were required to haul them to town. Two large loads of stolen drygoods, groceries, flour, tobacco, clothing and provisions were found on the premises. Another gang, known as the Smith- Turner gang, worked on a wholesale scale and held the chickens onasmall farm on the woods west of llanville. When they had enough chickens for a carload, or part of a carload, they would deliver them and ship them di— rect to New York. The police record of the members of these gangs shows them to be professional criminals. The Jungvls case well illustrates the desperate character of many chicken thieves. Charley Haskins, who had been stealing chickens over a large territory, working out of Gary, ’Indi- ana, was discovered by Jungels and two neighbors stealing chickens. Jun~ gels commanded the thief to halt,_ and in reply received a bullet through the chest, which put him in the hospital for several weeks. captured, Haskins shot this farmer, who has a devoted wife and four love--_ 1y children, the eldest of whom is ten years of age. On his hospital bed. during convalescence Jungels said, “I could easily have shot Haskins first, but I tried to be fair and give him a chance to surrender. I was shot for my pains. I will pray for his soul, but I do not care what becomes of his carcass.” Practical methods menace to life and active work along lines. 1. Full publicity in farm papers to methods of combatting stealing, and particularly to a record of capture and conviction of thieves. \ 2. Rewards offered by county boards of supervisors and by local protective associations to stimulate. effort to cap» ture and convict thieves. r) 0. Protect poultry houses and other outbuildings with locks, burglar alarms and a good dog. 4. Organize local farmers’ protec- tive associations to combat stealing. Such associations should be incorpor- ated under the state anti-horse thief association law, and some of the mem- bers deputized. (In states having no such law, one should be enacted). Poultry dealers should be taken into membership where possible. 5. Mark poultry of members with a special toe punch, paint or leg bands, and notify all nearby dealers of the association’s mark. 6.

Some Poultry and Live Stock Studies I” terertittg and Practical Rem/t5 Oétaz'a ez/ /2y Experz'mmterr By George H. Conn HE raising of the early hatched chicks in many sections of the United States has IOng been a problem, and in many sections in the. northern states chicks which were hatched early in the spring, or in late - winter, could not be successfully rais- ed, even though they were supplied generously with green material, [they invariably died from leg weakness. Poultry feeding has been a very com— plicated affair, especially as regards the baby chick, but from studies made at the Wisconsin Experiment Station, it is evident that touch of this com- plication‘ can and should be abolished for a simpler means of feeding, and with the simpler methods they have been very successful. ’ ‘ The ration that they have used with such success is composed of eighty parts of yellow corn, twentyparts of wheat middlings, five parts of raw bone, five parts of grits, and one part of common salt. No water is given, but the birds are given all the skim milk that they will eat. In addition to this, the birds are exposed to sunlight each day or, if this is impossible, they are exposed from fifteen to twenty . minutes daily to the ultra-violet“ light . which can be supplied by a quartz mercury lamp Which operates on an electric current. This latter is prac- ticed only if the chicks are hatched te guy, and must be closely cons with this ration that milk supplies pro- tein that is more efficient for poultry when combined with this ration, than any of the other sources commonly used. This ration provides every known requirement for successful nu~ trition, excepting the vitamin, which prevents rickets or leg weakness, and this can be prevented by direct sun- light. In the supplying of calcium or lime for live stock feeding, it has been gen— erally recommended that only a high calcium limestone be used; that any limestone or' calcium carrier that con- tained more than a few per cent of magnesium carbonate was not suit- able. The station at Geneva, New York, arrived at the conclusion sev- eral years ago that the presence of any appreciable amounts of magnes- ium in the ration favored the with- drawal of calcium or lime from the skeleton. The Wisconsin Experiment station have been working on this ex— periment for a. couple of years, and they are of the opinion that the use of dolomitic, or magnesian limestone is not detrimental to live stock, and that it can be used safely; the only precaution that they recommend is the feeding of larger amounts of it. More and Mere Are Experimentcrs Coming to Realize the Benefits Result- ing. from “an Adequate Supply of Li ght 'm the Stables. This, they feel, will insure the animals securing the required amounts of cal- cium or lime. The Nutritive Value of the Wheat Plant. During a series of experiments ex- tending over a period of some fifteen years, the workers at the Wisconsin Experiment Station were of the opin- ion that wheat as an animal feed was unsafe, as to them it appeared to have some toxic substance within its make up which prevented normal nutrition and normal reproduction. They now announce, through work recently com- pleted,‘ that wheat does not contain any toxic substance, and that it can 4 be supplemented with calcium and cod liver oil, which produces satisfactory results. These experiments were car- ried on with mature milch cows. The entire ration was made from wheat products, with the exception of the supplements referred to above. . Influence of Light on Calcium Assimilation. Considerable investigation has been carried on of late years to determine the relation of light to the calcium and inorganic phosphorous content of the blood, the influence of light in the prevention of rickets, and the relation of light to growth. Until recently, most, if not all, of these experiments , have been conducted with growing or, young animals. It remained for the Wisconsin Experiment BtatiOn to de- termine what eflect light had on the assimilation of an adult animal in (Continued on page 569)? Rather than be “ , l a); ’ CONGRESSIONAL ACTIVITIES BEGIN. ONGRESSIONAL committees are already at work making prepara- ,. tions for the opening of the short win- ter session December 6. The House committee on appropriations is hold- ing hearings on the appropriation bills. .. It is planned to have the post office and treasury supply bills ready for consideration at the beginning of the season. Appropriation bills for the navy, interior and agricultural depart- ments will come next in line for con- sideration. Immediately following the supply bills the disposal of Muscle Shoals will demand attention, and ef- forts will be made to secure some form of tax reduction. Any tax reduction plan that may be brought forward during the coming session“ will be immediately set upon as a political football. POTASH PRICES ADVANCED. HE German and French producers of: potash salts, by effecting a com- bination of interests. have advanced the price of potash seventeen per cent over the 1924 price, says Dr. Julius Klein, director of the bureau of for- eign and domestic commerce, in the department of commerce, who has re- turned from Europe where he spent several weeks investigating the potash industry. These advances since 1924 mean an annual increase at the present rate of imports of $1,000,000 to $1,250,000 in the cost of an essential fertilizer ma- terial now under the control of a for- eign monopoly. The total imports dur- ing 1925 were valued at $12,750,000. SEEK POTASH DEPOSITS. THE geological survey has received from its field men in New Mexico, Texas and Utah, important informa- tion concerning potash. They have found potash minerals which afford increasing evidence of the similarity of American deposits to the famous deposits in Germany and France. It is expected that. the bureau of mines will soon sink test wells, with the hope of finding potash deposits that will demonstrate the feasibility of de- veloping the industry on a commercial scale. GERMAN FARMERS FACE SUR- PLUS PROBLEM. HE manager of a 5,000-acre estate in Germany, who is traveling in the United States, says that the Ger- man farmers are having about the same kind of troubles that are afflict— ing American farmers. They are now facing a shortage of labor, due to re- cent restrictions placed upon the entry of Polish ~l'aborers into Germany. The pressure brought to bear upon the government by the farm—labor unions, organized after the war, is responsible for this situation. The German farm- ers are solving the labor problem by the extensive use of machinery. OLEO FORCES MAKING HEADWAY. HE dairy interests of the Pacific Coast states, including California, Oregon, Washington and Idaho, lost their fight for stricter regulation of ‘ the oleomargarine industry, by refer- endum votes at‘the recent election. Large sums of money were spent by the oleo interests in these states be- fore election, for propaganda against any restriction on the sale of oleo- margarine, much of which was mis; . leading and unfair. It is indicated \ . 1.. that the manufacturers of oleomargar~ ine are preparing to make an attack on oleo regulation legislation all along the line from the federal laws to the various state statutes governing the sale of their products, WANT GOOD MOVIES. FFICIALS of the American Coun- try Life Association in coopera- tion with the department of agricul— ture, are promoting an active cam- paign, against the low-type movies that are flooding the rural districts. They are demanding that movie houses in the country townsprovide their pat- rons with a more wholesome type of films. They say that the people of the open country are disgusted with the sordid sex films and slap-jack com- edies that are being fed to the youth of the farms on their Saturday nights in town. The department of agricul- ture has taken up with Will Hays the matter of improving the quality of the films that are released throughout the country districts, and it is believed that the consideration given this ques— tion will result in a marked improve- ment in the country-town movies. RADIO SERVICE IS APPRECIATED. FARM folks are taking an increased interest in the department of agri- culture’s radio programs. Since Octo- ber 4, when the new fall schedule went on the air, the response from broad- casting stations and farm homes has been enthusiastic. An average of about 500 letters a day, asking for enroll- ment cards, bulletins, and information g ' Yiéei' Farmers me or rilyir'fl'; d - tle' time top correspondence, : write many letters of appreciation. ' ' WATER POWER DEVELOPMENT IS . ’ RAPID. - '\ HE past five years have witnessed _¢ the greatest water-power develop- ment in the history of America, ac- cording to the sixth annual report of the federal poWer Commission. Dur- ing the last fiscal year, construction was started upon twenty new projects which will have, when completed, an installation of 1,200,000 horsepower, or forty per cent of the total placed un- der construction during the preceding five years. Among these projects are the combined power and navigation development at the Falls of the Ohio, Louisville, Kentucky. with 136,000 horsepower, and the Conowingo devel- opment of 473,000 horsepower on the Susquehanna river in Maryland and Pennsylvania. When consideration is further given to the character of a large number of the major applications.‘ such as the Conowingo project on the Susquehan- na river, which affects the interests of two states, and will cost more than $50,000,000, and the St. Lawrence pro- jects, which, when undertaken, must be handled by the federal power com- mission with due regard to the public interests of the state of New York, of the United States, and of Canada, as well as the hundreds of millions of investment that will be required, a better appreciation can be had of the task placed upon the commission, and of the inadequate means provided for performing the task. - Sixteen groups of women of" Wash- tenaw county will be enrolled in the home management project given by Michigan State College home econom- ics specialists. ‘ sis. ,/ / I! 'l H! il’ DON’T USE PAINT FOR WATER TANKS. IL or lead paint should not be used for the interior of tanks which are to hold water for household or live stock, use. With lead paints there is always the danger of slow lead poison- ing, a very serious danger, because dangerous poisoning may occur before it is suspected. Nor should any paint be used, which has linseed or other oil as a basis, since it is very likely to soften and peel off. A thin coat of hot paraffin can be applied and is not likely to give trou- ble, and hot asphalt or asphalt paint can be applied, although this will prob- ably affect the water for a short time. The Handyman’s 1,000 Practical Re- ceipts recommends giving the inside of the tank a coat of ordinary slaked _,or hydrated lime mixed with water to the consistency of thin cream, with a very little glue-size melted and mixed in to help fix it. This should be well rubbed in with‘ a bit of steel wool. When dry, another coat should be giv- en. This helps to prevent rusting and will not hurt the water. - ’— CANNOT GET 90 VOLTS OUT OF A 32-VOLT BATTERY. I have a three-tube radio set, and am using three telephone batteries for A-Battery, C-Battery, and two forty- five-volt dry batteries for B-Battery. We have a Delco sixteen-cell, thirty- two volt lighting plant and would like to know if I can use this to take care of the A-Battery current, and also for the ninety volts of B-Battery.= If so, please give me directions, for making the connections—~11. M. “It is a simple matter to use your lighting plant battery for your A-Bat-- THE HANDY ANS [DRIER-'— tery supply. You can put sharp-tooth- ed clips on the A-Battery leads and snap these on to three of your light plant cells if your tubes use six volts, using these for, say a week, then snap- ping it on to the next three. for a week, and so on. Or you can use the cur- rent direct from a lamp socket by us- ing a lamp in series with the radio set. Care must be taken in either case not to try to use the set while the bat- tery is being charged. But there is no way by which you can use your lighting plant battery for your B—Battery supply, since there is no way ofdirectly increasing the di- rect current voltage. The only thing you could do would be to secure a storage B-Battery and charge this from your lighting plant battery by twenty- four-volt units in parallel, thencon— nect these in series to get your ninety volts. This .will be somewhat expen- sive and quite a lot of trouble, and I believe that the large-sized dry bat- teries will be more satisfactory. DON’T FORCE A PLUG. PARK plugs should not be forced into position by severe wrench ac4 tion. They should set firmly against a copper asbestos gasket, with but lit- tle more force than can be applied with a light wrench.

We leave it to our live stock to do part of .the Work, and then plow under most of what remains, usually getting most of the waste underground but leaving a space along the fence for brush and brambles to grow, and for weeds and leaves to lodge and furnish wonder- fully warm’ winter quarters for our worst tenants. They tell us that in Europe exactly the reverse is true. The grower really cultivates to the limits of his field, and destroys all left-overs. In fact, in or- der to make a living; and to pay his Share toward the support of the com- monwealth, he is obliged to utilize all his holdings, even to‘ the crop rem- nants, all of which go to help keep up the fertility of the land. Over there, cleah taming (real clean farming) is no novelty, and while‘ the European farmerrhas as many, or more, insect . enemies, he manages to grow larger crops per acre than do we. We are now threatened by the most serious menace to our general agricul- ture which has ever came to us. The corn borer has made itself felt in the southeastern part of the state. Its advance guards have reached central Michigan and in two or three years more it will have reached all parts of the Lower Peninsula. This is just as sure as can be. A few years more and losses over the entire state will be severe, and unless we all agree on a plan and work together, agricultural practice in Michigan will have to be ' entirely changed. Remember that this innocent appearing little fellow is now the sole cause of complete losses in parts of Canada, and of very discour- aging losses in Michigan, in places where it has been at work only five ' years. It lies with us whether we are to take these losses in the course of which many of our farmers are likely to be driven to the wall, or are we go- NE of the most importantf‘and’ far-reaching factors which has entered into the social life of our rural communities, in the last dec- ade, is the district school reunion. So far as southern Michigan is concerned, at least, the “Little Red Schoolhouse" or its equivalent, is as yet, [far from being a thing of the past. No doubt, the one-room school is passing in Michigan, but for the most partrits passing is still so slow as to be almost , , imperceptible. Indeed, in the writer’s two new one-room school- houses are now under construction, and apparently, the consolidated sys- tem is as far away as ever. It is around these one-room district schools that interest in the school reunion centers. ' , In dealing with the district school reunion, it is not too much to say that it is the most- potent factor for renew- ing _old acquaintances and reviving old . memories, that rural Michigan. has ev- : ‘er seen. So successful have - these gatherings proved to be, that each .1 year, new districts are hchding/the i11- .' itial gathering and forming permanent organizations.

Pettit in some way w s all actually obtain an annual clean worthy the name? No mysterious stranger; or hitherto unknown force, is going to appear and save us before the invasion becomes complete. Let us clean up our farms now, not only in the infested districts but all over the state, such a course will slow up the progress westward of the borer, and throw a serious ob- stacle in its path. I can see the few pine-stump fences, still in .existence, going up in, smoke, and I hope that new fences will all be of wire, prefer- ably so built that the brlers can eas- ily be burned out each season. The borders of ditches harbor many weeds in which borers can live over, and weed destruction along roadsides, in old orchards and, in fact, wherever they occur, will help us to make ready for the certain appearance of this, our most formidable enemy to successful farming. Less than two generations ago,’ the cattle industry of America was thleat- ened with a very severe set-back. A small tick acted as a carrier of the i11- ing to get behinilJ a movement so that fection which produced Texas fever. To be sure, we could still raise cattle after they became accustomed to the disease, but such cattle, and in spite of all we could do for diseased cattle, many of them died. In short, the cat- tle industry was threatened and it be- came necessary to adopt drastic meas- ures. The disease was rampant in the south, and was spreading to the north- ward, and the pastures, ranges and fields were rapidly becoming seeded. down with the ticks which spread the disease. 1 At that time, the cost of the seveie and expensive treatment necessary to check the advance of the disease, seemed to be too great to be put into practice, but no other hope was in sight, nor is there today any cheaper control measure known. The nation started a clean-up during which the ticks were eradicated as the clean-up progressed southward from the more recently invaded districts in the north, and that clean-up is still going on. Some fairly extensive areas of infec- tion still persist in the south, but ev- ery year some of this is cleaned up, Failure of a Community to Promptly Adopt a Thorough-going Clean-up Pol- icy Resulted in the Complete Loss of this Corn Crop by the Corn Borer. The District School Reunion .4 Factor iu Community flu’vuucemeut - By J. A. Kaiser and fostering ofan interest in local history. The reunion programs teem with reminiscent talks by old-timers, and with histories of_the schools and of the districts. Nothing that has oc- curred in recent years, has done so much to create this kind of local in- terest, as has the school reunion. Back to the school reunion come judges, congressmen, college profes- sors, doctors, and business men——a 'long line from the cities of Michigan and other states, renewing again, the acquaintances of childhood. People have come thousands of miles to be present at these gatherings. Very of- ten, there is nothing else to draw the wanderer back. The family is gone, relatives are dead or scattered, but the little old schoolhouse still stands with its precious memories. It is not uncommon to see at these reunions, men, and women who have passed the four-score mark. Some of them were teachers in the old days, some of them were pupils, and all have something in common in the reunion and its pow- er to call back the scenes of childhood and youth. In any of these annual gatherings, may be found a bounteous sprinkling of city dwellers. This, too, indicates another salutary feature, growing out of the movement. The city folk and the country people get together and talk over current questions of inter- est, and get each other’s viewpoint. As a result, there is a widened horizon for everybody, a more charitable spirit, and a better understanding. t‘Mlchigan Mystery.” RIPPING with interest is this story of Michigan history andro- mance, written especially for us by Ben East, author of the r_ History of far-off lands is interesting, but a ~ historical romance horn of our native soil, revealed in our new ,3 . ‘ ‘ serial, will hold you to the last chapter. * ‘ ,next week. “Read the first installment l and finally we hope to see the United States free from Texas fever. The public in the infested districts refused, at first, to fall into line, and in some places actively opposed the prosecu- tion of the work, but finally, after a good start was made, the people swung over and helped to save the cattle . ». industry. Just such an attitude is to be ex-' pected in the case of the corn borer situation by all except the better in; formed and intelligent part of our pub- lic. It is notoriously difficult to pro: mote an unpopular movement, or to enforce an unpopular law, and clean- ing up, of course means extra work and extra expense. It will be, or rath— er is, unpopular, and probably never will become otherwise. Let us grant that it is unpopular, but let us also admit that it is positively necessary, and that all other means of dealing with the situation promise nothing but failure, unless we clean up as well. Disagreeable as the truth is, it is a comfort to know that there is a real remedy, one that has succeeded abroad, even if it may be applied only at great cost. I feel that it is not too great a cost, for the alternative is ut~ ter failure. It is hoped that every intelligent citizen will inform himself or herself of the true facts, and after finally be-- coming convinced, that he will boost for genuine clean farming. Real Amer- icans do not like (0 be told what they must do. They prefer to do things on their own initiative, and I hope that we shall always feel that way. It would need no more than an examian- tion of the fields of corn near Chat~ ham, and of some in our own state, to convince any up-to—date farmer so that he would want to get in line and prepare for the coming of the borer. It therefore seems to me to be the patriotic duty of all who have seen or who are acquainted with the true facts, to try to convince others, so that real clean farming, with all its attendant advantages, will become the invariable rue. The annual school reunion has a. tendency to make the schoolhouse the center for social affairs. The reunion has come to be the big event of the summer, for the people of the district as well as for many who live away. The programs stimulate an interest in school affairs, and a pride in the best things for which the school stands. Out of this often grows a series of winter gatherings, held in the school— house, with programs and refresh- ments as attractions. It may be that both the one-room school and the school reunion will be things of the past, to the next gener- ation. But, however that may be, these annual functions ‘are a big factor in the rural life of today. What is more, a there are, as yet, no indications of a lessening of interest in the movement. Interest is being maintained from year to year, and patrons of the districts are joining heartily in making each reunion a success. Justvwho originatv ed the idea of holding the first of these ' gatherings, does not seem to be’clea'r- ly known. Ten years will measure the time since the oldest organization was established, and with many, half that time will suffice. A great many ‘. schools numbei their reunions below the five- -year mark.

A FARM DEAL- I sold my farm to a man through a Detroit agent. The buyer came Sun- day and said he would come Wednes- day to close the deal. He came Mon- day. He said his wife had been to Port Huron and had the contract madevthemselves. In it they had our agreements changed, giving selves things I had before reserved for myself. I tried to read the contract, but there was much confusion and I only half sensed it, and signed it. Af- terwards I learned that it gave to them things that were intended to be re- served for me. Is there anything that can be done? Did he have a right to get the contract made out and change our agreements? He has done several other unfair things. I am a woman who has been crippled from childhood and cannot afford to let people “put things over” on me.—E. P. The only remedy is by suit to res- cind the contract, and there is a very strong presumption that the person signing the contract understood its contents; and it would be little protec- tion for persons obtaining land con- tracts if this were not so. In order to get redress it is not enough to say that the person signing the contract did not understand its terms. It is necessary to show by very convincing evidence that the purchaser was guil- ty of a fraud in inducing the seller to sign the contract, and knew that the seller did not understand its terms.— Rood. EFFECT OF SALE ON LEASE. We rented a farm for three years, with privilege of five years. This is our second year on this farm. Last summer the owner put the farm in the hands of real estate agents to sell for him, and the time allowed expires on January 1, 1927. If he sells the farm the owner wants us to move, otherwise he expects us to stay our time out. I’nder present conditions, can we rent another farm and let him ‘rent his farm to someone else, or are we oblig- zd It3o say until he sells his farm?—-— The owner cannot terminate the rights of the tenant by selling, unless the lease expressly provides that he may do so; and on the other hand, the tenant cannot surrender and avoid lia- bility for the rent without such a pro- vision. The owner may sell at any time, subject to the right of the tenant to occupy during the remainder of his lease._ The option of the extra two years is approved with the tenant, and he may quit at the end of his three year's—Rood. BEAN STEM BLIGHT. I have a nice patch of marrow-fat beans which are being infested by something that is cutting the stalk off just above the ground and some stalks - are a little higher.

The school in the‘district in which I live is two and one-half miles from the house. I have asked the school board to pay the tuition, or set me over in the other district, but they refuse to do this: One has to pay $16 to the town clerk to have him call a meeting of the board—I. E. I. ' By Compiled Laws (1915) Section 5655-6, the township board has power to alter the boundaries of school dis- tricts on posting notice of the meeting in three public places in the town- ship, at least ten days before the time of the meeting, announcing the pur- poses, time, and place of the meeting.

Would it release me from pay- ing for his not notifying me when due? If he says he did notify me, would that help him out?—A. I. B.

OR. storing cabbage for spring: my method is as follows: Choose a high piece of ground, if sandy, so much the better. Dig a trench about one foot deep and wide enough for a single row of heads, line it with dry straw, wheat straw is the best. Pull the cabbage up and trim off the coarse leaves, but do not trim too close, leaving the stalks on. Then put them singly in the trench, putting a layer of straw between each head so they will not touch each other. layer of straw over them and cover them with dirt. Be sure to leave the roots above the surface or crest of the trench, and pack the dirt with the back of the shovel, so the water will not settle in the trench. If necessary lay boards along the sides of the ridge, leaving them on until the ground is frozen, taking care not to cover up the exposed roots or foot of the stalks, Modifying t/ze Faurtfi Commandrflem levy/MW” u’,,’,,/I/////’ l/ll’ I"ll UhJ...

I have followed this method for a number of years with good success, if the heads were solid when they were buried—D. H. “ Morris. RUBBER PLANT. I just bought a rubber tree. It is about three feet high, and in a large keg. Could you tell me how to take care of it? Does it need new dirt? Can they be slipped, or how do you' start new ones? How often should it be watered?—Mrs.’ E. 0. Rubber trees as a rule, prefer 'con- fined root conditions, so that new soil in a tub will not be necessary for a. while. However, an application of plant food at regular intervals will be found desirable. During the winter, watering twice a week will be found to be sufficient, but during spring and ‘summer, when the greatest growth takes place, more frequent applica- tions will be found necessary. . ~ New plants may be made by taking cuttings of the tips and/placing them in sand which is kept moist and warm. In three or four weeks rooting will take place. The cuttings should be at least two nodes in length and cut at the point where the leaf joins the stem. Another method often employed is known as pot layering. A cut is made through the stem about three or four nodes from the’tip. This cut is about half way through diagonally. A toothpick is inserted into the cut to prevent healing back. Then a ball of s‘phagnum moss is made about the wound and tied tightly with string. This must be kept moist at all times, and in the course of a few weeks new roots will form and when they fill the ball of moss, the entire new plant may be severed and potted. The mother ‘plant will not suffer in any way, new shoots being forced out below the cut. ‘-FLIES AROUND HOUSE PLANTS.

Silos were filled in good season, while all are now busy husking corn, buzzing wood, and getting ready for winter. Pastures have been excellent this fall. All produce is bringing fair- ly good prices—J. S. E. Marquette County.—Stock is in good condition. Roughage is short and grains none too plentiful. Potatoes are Our principal crop. The yield was fairly good.- The quality was fine, and farmers are now realizing about $1.15 per’bushel.—H. E. T. - Lake County.—-Live stock is in good condition, with plenty .of roughage, hay and grain for farm use. Potatoes bring $1.30 per bushel; hay $20; but- ter 450; eggs 45c; chickens 18@200. There was not much fall plowing done. Rain has been plentiful, and some snow. New seeding is looking fair.— J. B. Lapeer County.———Cold weather has slowed up farm work. Wheat is gomg into winter in fine shape. There has not been the usual amount of fall plow- ing done. Milk brings $3 per hundred- weight; eggs 550; heavy chickens 200; wheat $1.15; potatoes $1.30; hay $12 per ton—A. D. WANT DRAFT HORSES. ANADIAN buyers are in the mar— ket for draft horses, according to reports received at the department of commerce from Lynn W. Meekings, trade commissioner of the department of commerc at Ottawa. He says the demand for orses in the Toronto mar- ket, which is the principal source of shipments to northern Ontarlo, Que- bec, and New Brunswick, is cons1der- ably larger than the available supply. Large horses weighing from 1,500.to 1,700 pounds are required for logging work and for hauling in the cities. They are bringing from $150 to $200 each. There is also a demand for .ex- press type horses of good quality, weighing about 1,400 pounds. The price offered ranges from $200 to $225 each. The import duty on horses when brought from the United States, is twenty-five per cent ad valorem. If American ‘exporters can compete on this basis, Mr.-Meekins thinks they may be able to obtain considerable business in Canada. CONDUCTED BY DR. s. BURROWS.

This pig did well until three days ago, when it began trembling, squealing, and it fell on its side and got stiff. It seemed like a fit. It got up and walked around the pen until it had another 'spell. Is the unripe corn making it sick? What shall I do? L. B. K.—Unripe corn is frequently moul- dy. If this is the case, it should not be used. Give four ounces of castor oil. Try reducing the amount of corn, 'by feeding a slop of middlings and milk once a day. Dog Has Worms.—We have a hound dog that we think has worms. Pieces of them drop from him and I have seen him pass them. His coat is dull‘ and he is too thin for the amount he eats. ‘What is the remedy, and would the same remedy do for a'cat that has worms? E. J. D.-—Withhold food for twelve hours, then give powdered are- ca nut mixed with a little milk—two grains for each pound of his weight. For the Cat, give tWO grains of sahm tonin. in one-half ounce of. castor oil.

Wheat is looking His left front leg seems to be worse than his rightleg. If he is in use every day he does not seem to be so stiff in his hind legs, but his left front leg never seems to be any better. If he stands in the barn a couple of days or so, he gets very stiff in the hind legs and can hardly walk. His feet seem to be in good shape. Is there anything I can do for him? A. C.——-It is difficult to give advice as to the best method of treating a horse as lame and stiff as the one you describe. Rub the parts with the following liniment: Tur- pentine and stronger ammonia, _two ounces of each, and cotton seed oil to make one pint. Rub in thoroughly once daily. As soon as grass comes, turn out to pasture for a few months. Chronic Laminitis ~ (Founder).—-—I have a mare that has a bad case of acute founder. She has been that way for a year. She is quite lame after driving on hard ground, and when she stands in the barn she seems to get worse. I have grown a new hoof, still she has wrinkles on the outside of her feet. She seems quite stiff when get- ting around in the barn, What can I do for her? L. R.—-Such a horse is not fit for road work. The soles of the feet become flat or rounded (convex), and walking on hard pavements pro- duces severe pain. She should be shod with wide, well concaved bar shoes, and if the feet cannot be kept soft, they should be packed with pine tar and oakum and kept in place with a piece of leather under the shoe. In trimming the feet, the heels should be shortened, and the sole from point of the frog to the toe, should not be thinned too much. Careful shoeing, trimming of the hoof and keeping the hoof soft, are the most essential things to keep in mind, in trying to improve the feet in chronic founder. and ’rovent, SAVE CALVES Ins-roan”. using Abom the ‘oneer, guaranteed reined for allusions Abelsoap'wm for free booklet Jr...
