ILLINOIS FARMERS Will Use Horses in Preference to Tractor Says a Chicago Writer. HORSE IR PROFITABLE Say the Farmers—Tractor vs. Horse Causes Discussion in Newspapers. The subject of farm power is causing considerable discussion among the farmers, and agricultural university experts and wo re produce an article appearing In the Chicago Trib une. and written by Frank Ridgway, a special writer. His story follows: "After taking their full share of the three and a half billion dollar loss charged to producers of this country past year, farmers in Illinois are going to do everything they can to cut down the cost of growing this season’s crop. With plowing only a few weeks ahead they are already figuring closely ion their farm power and laboi problems. They are not concerned so much witli speed in putting in their crops as they are in ways to save every penny they can in planting, cultivating and harvesting. Losses from Wild Buying Farmers are already bringing their horses in from the pastures and giving them heavy feed. preparing for an early spring. Around Danville farmers are planning to use horses in doing their spring work as much as they can Driving from farm to farm and gathering first hand information from farmers in Vermillion county, I discovered that the reckless buying of expensive farm implements that were not needt'd has forced many farmers into bankruptcy this winter and others have suffered heavy losses. Both praises and criticisms could be II found in the tractor. Some of tile farmers have been successful with them, while others say they would rather do their work with horses, particularly this year. ‘I had a tractor last year and owned | it six months,’ said A. H. McFarland i who lives near Danville, ‘but traded it for some steers and horses, and I lost money in the deal. I can run my farm cheaper with horses. Resides we are not getting a good price for our corn and are paying out good money for gasoline and oit. Horses are cheap and it costs very little to feed them.’ ! * Not for Smail Farmer William Leverich, Danville.has been | using a tractor on his farm of 350 I acres for three years. ‘I have found I the tractor to be a paying proposition ; where a man has enough ground to cut down the number of horses he is using,’ he said. ‘I think the man who is running a small farm has little business with a tractor.’ Perry Velentine, who lives a few miles down the road, said that with his farm of 310 acres he could raise his crops cheaper with horses than he could witli a tractor. F. C. Adams and sons, who operate a good sized farm near Rossville, make their tractor pay its way by utilizing the belt power in running a small thrashing machine and corn sheller in addition to the field work. Farmers in Champaign county do not have the money to buy tractors this spring, according to C. H. Oathout, farm adviser. He says that the tenants and landlords in this county are in about the same boat. ‘The gross income on the average farm run by a tenant—and there are 2,221 of them in this county—was

about $750 after the rent was paid last year,' he said, 'while the farmers who own and operate theft own land had a gross income oi about SBBO. Few of these men will be able to buy tractors after they meet all of their obligations,, including wages for extra help, repfljfrs on farm machinery, grocery bills, and numerous other expenses.’ Prof. E. W. Lehmann, expert in farm mechanics, University of Illinois, said today he believes 75 per cent of the failures of tractors on the farms in Illinois were due to inefficiency in operation. “We need more intelligent buying and more efficient operating of the tractor,” he declared. "Farmers should analyze their power needs before buying tractors. The farmers are realizing that, too. We have had an increase in the enrollment of our tractor courses of 105 this year, compared with 75 last year.” 11. f. Shawl, assistant professor in farm mechanics at the university, gave figures showing the relative cost of operating a tractor and the fost of keeping horses. » $382 to S3BB a Year. It costs $382.82 a year, he said, to run a tractor pulling a two bottom plow based on records kept by seventeen tractor owners. The cost in running a three bottom plow was $388.18 This was all on the basis of drawbar work, assuming that the tractor would last five years, gasoline at 23 cents a galoon, kerosene 13 cents a gallon, and depreciation of 20 per cent. “These tractors replaced the average of 2.7 horses,” explained Prof. Shawl. “At the present price of feed it will cost about SIOO to keep a horse for one year, or $270 to keep the 2.7 horses that were replaced by the tractor.” SOLD HOOCH IN BANANAS tl'nlted l’rex« Service). Fairport, 0., Feb. 21. —This is the inside story of how a pretty young girl personally drove the bootleggers out of Fairport, noted as an international rum-smuggling center between the United States and ranada. It was told to the United Press by Dr. Amy Kaugonen, youngest woman mayor in America. . "The town of Fairport has been for some time a wideopen one. Ijast November the citizens decided things had gone entirely too far, so they promised to elect me mayor providing I would pledge to clean out the bootleggers and gamblers. "The bootleggers of Fairport had a carefully worked out plan to escape detention. Most of the dives had an eight-hour shift of look-outs or watchmen. As soon as a suspicious looking stranger came into sight, the lookout gave a signal, a bell rang, the light blinked, and the hooch was rushed to a secret hiding place. Sometimes during a raid the bootleggers disrupted the power plant, putting out every light in Fairport. That worked for a while, but we soon caught onto their system. “Much of the booze was brought across from Canada in airplanes. Now, however, the airplanes do not stop in Fairport. “Some of the caches of the bootleg-
gers were amazingly clever. A fruit store proprietor sold bananas at 75 cents apiece. Inserted in a scoppel out niche in thia high-priced variety wind a small bottle containing one drink of hooch. "Neelless to say this little fruit stand did a land office busltu-ss. Those who couldn't afford hooch-ba-nanas were accommodated with lemon extract, lightening droops, hard cidar and dago red. "We have the bootleggers on the run, as the saying goes, but we won't stop now until every bit of hooch in Fairport is confiscated." KEEP URIC ACID OUT OF JOINTS Tells Rheumatism Sufferers to Eat Less Meat and Take Salts. Rheumatism is easier to avoid than to cure, states a well-known authority We are advised to dress warmly; keep the feet dry; avoid exposure; eat less meat, but drink plenty of good water. Rheumatism is a direct result of eating too much meat and other rich foods that produce uric acid which is absorbed into the blood. It is the function of the kidneys to filter this acid from the blood and cast it out in the urine; the pores of the skin are also a means of freeing the blood of this impurity. In damp and chillly cold weather the skin pores are closed thus forcing the kidneys to do double work, they become weak and sluggish ’ and fail to eliminate the uric acid which keeps accumulating the circulating through the system, eventually settling in the joints and muscles causing stiffness, soreness and pain called rheumatism. At the first twinge of rheumatism ' get from any pharmacy about four ounces of Jad Salts; put a tablespoonful in a glass of water and drink before breakfast each morning for a week. This is said to eliminate uric acid by stimulating the kidneys to normal action thus ridding the blood of these impurities. Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon Juice, combined with lithia and is used with excellent results by thousands of folks who are subject to rheumatism.
