CARLE CENSUS'! Slight Increase in Number of Milch Cows and Mules During Last Year OTHERS DECREASE Fewer Calves, Sheep and • Hogs says Government Annual Reports A slight increase in the number of j milch cows and mules and a moder- ’ tie decrease in the number of other 1 (calves, steers, bulls and cows ( lot for milk), horses, sheep and swinp 1 ire the outstanding features of a sur- ' vey of live stock on farms and ranges , rs the United States on January 1, as compared with a year ago, made by the Bureau of Crop Estimates, Unit'd States Department of Agriculture. Milch cows have increased about 372,0(9) head, or 1.2 per cent; mules ncreased 11,000 head, or O.S per cent; ‘other” cattle (as described above) lecreased 700,000 head, or 1.6 per ent; horses decreased 373,000 head, yr 1.7 per cent; sheep decreased 351,000 head, or 0.5 per cent; and swine decreased 1,675,000 head, or 1.2 per cent. | The total value of all farm animals >n January 1 was about $8,561,000,000, vhich is a shrinkage of $266,000,000, >r 3 per cent, compared with a year igo. It is an interesting observation n numbers also increased in value ier head: whereas all other classes »£ animals decreased in value per lead, as well as in total numbers. I Jakes Money with Canning Outfit. I Two boilers fitted with (rays, two übs, two wire baskets, two flaring :nives, a small dipper, a measuring tup, a kettle, and a can sealer coinirised the equipment that a young .Vashington school teacher used to an enough peaches. to clear $H()0 in wo weeks last fall. I One of the things which the home leraonstration agents, sent out by the nited States Department of Agri■ulture and the state colleges, teach s the use of inexpensive equipment, vhere it is impossible or'inadvisable i> buy expensive utensils. In the 'akima Valley, Washington, there is •. high percentage of waste peaches n the orchards that supply the coranercial canneries, it is impossible, or them to use true-ripened Alberta md Slafipa peaches because they will! ot stand up well under the high presilire used in processing. A young chool-teacher, living in the vicinity >f these orchards, and her aunt deided, with the advice of the home lemonstration agent of that county, o utilize these tree-ripened peaches. I Vith a stove made of bricks and the: ibove equipment they were able in wo weeks to make a profit of $600. ! I’hey found little sugar was necessary vith the tree-ripened peaches. They ilso made 600 quarts of peach and iear conserve and 215 quarts of ;rape and apple jelly. Special recipes were worked out for the pear. mtter. -umigation Charge Reduced. The fumigation of railway cars entering the United States from Mexco can be done at less cost than was originally thought and the United States Defiartment of Agric.uit.ure, ■ through the Federal Horticultural Joard. has ordered a reduction of the ’ee from $5 to $4 a car. The fumiga ion. for the purpose of preventing he entry of the pink boll worm of •otton. is pcWornnd at the various border points of entry in houses espeiially constructed for the purpose.' Fumigation was taken over by Federtl agents October 1 last year. The effort was to make a charge for the service that would just cover the cost of chemicals and labor involved. Three months’ experience has proved that the. charge of $5 more than does this and the new ruling, effective on February 1. gave to the shippers the benefit of the saving. Unused fumigation coupons previously bought at $5 will be redeemed at ttiec value. Opportunity in Sheep Raising. Results of a farm sheep experiment reported by the United States Department of Agriculture show clearly the possibilities of a profitable sheep-raising business upon eastern lands. At Hie government farm, Beltsville. Md.. a study is being made of specialized intensive sheep raising with complete reliance upon forage crops for Summer pasturage. In U)J6 a 30-acre area did net produce forage enough to feed satisfactorily 'll Southdown ewes and 33 ‘ lambs. This field is now capable of | furnt.-lting -tillicii n! summer feed for ! till) ewe: with their lambs. The improveiiimit is line in part Io the up- ■ plication of manures, lime, ami phosphates but chiefly Io the fad that leguminous, crop;; were largely used and all crop: were fed upon the ground, the unused residues being •ilowcd in.

SCORES OF PEOPLE UWE FOUND TROTONA UNFAILING AS PREVENTIVE OF “FLU” “This Medicine Saved Me From Having Influenza,” Mrs. Sears Declares—Many Similar Statements Furnish Unquestionable Proof

Since reaching file definite conclusion that as yet no cure for influenza has been found, health authorities are practically unanimous in their opinion that PREVEN TION is the I one best means for stamping out the ' dreaded disease. As to the best means of insuring effective prevention the answer is to’ be found in Surgeon Blue’s recent . statement in which he says. "It is Important that the body be kept | strong and able to light off disease! germs." Public si itements from scores of! people have proven that there is no j better agency for nroviding body i strength and vitality to withstand at tacks of disease than Trutona. Many will remember the rematkable workdone by Trutona last year when, in I innumerable eases, serious after-ef-fects of influenza were quickly over come by the perfect tonic. In only a slightly lesser measure has Trutona I , been declared to have prevented at I I tacks of the malady. One of the Many Cases parasites. Oregon Fights Rodents. Typical of the work of the Biolog-1 leal Survey in western states is that which has been carried on in Oregon during the past year. A total of over I 20.000 pounds of poisoned grain was spread on 150,000 acres of government land by Biological Survey ex jierts or by farmers and stockmen] working under the direction of field 1 assistants. In addition, 100 ounces of strychnine and 2.000 pounds of poisoned grain were furnished the 1 county agent in Wallowa county This was used in fighting squirrels as they began to gather from the public lands to the cultivated lands and ] was sent as temporary relief until the government could undertake a more systematic campaign in the county.

Mrs. Josephine Soars, 2803 Portland avenue. Louisville, after gratefully describing the many remarkable benefits sho gained from Trutona, Isays: "I really believe this medicine ' saved me from having influenza.” There are scores of other similar statements, too nuumro-is to mention, ] and they prove conclusively that Tru- ! tuna is truly a remarkable agency lor Hie prevention of influenza as I well as an unequalled reconstructive I tonic for overcoming bad after-effects I of the disease. Trutona's healthful action reaches J every portion of the body. Performing its work faithfully and efficiently, Trutona rebuilds diseased nerves and I tissues, creates a healthy appetite I and assists in digestion and assimilation of food, the results of which | are invariably to be seen in the ruddy cheeks and sparkling eyes of those I who have taken the perfect tonic. Don't take a chance—take Trutona! Trutona is sold in Decatur at I Smith, Yager & Falk's. Survey men. Over 7,500 farmers took part in the work and treated 697,000 acres of their own lands, using 85.480 pounds of poisoned grain prepared under direction of the Biological Survey representatives and county agents. Delore the war, 100,000 people in I Greater Berlin registered as having ao religion. Now there are 1,000,000. It is the moral slump of Germany that worries its government more than anything else. Kentucky tobacco lands have increased from $l5O an acre to $2,0-30. i The state’s crop of the "weed” last year was valued at $100,000,000.
