the community. We will all agree' that a homemaker meets all of these qualifications. “It has been found that there are i 350 tasks about the house. The j home-maker must lie aide to plan her work so she can get all these | tasks done. Os course all of these : do not come every day. We have I seasonal tasks, such as canning > fruits and vegetables, house-dean- f Ing. putting away spring and summer clothes, etc.; weekly tasks, such as washing, ironing, mending, general cleaning, and daily tasks, such as cooking of meals, washing dishes, putting the house to order and many others. “A plan may have to be changed considerably but a plan much changed is better than no plan at all. Each homemaker’s plan will be en-j tirely different from any other and j may be compared to a commercial I pattern. Each person will have to ' alter according tor her own needs. Plans will depend on size of the family; the number of helpers, if any; size of the house; location of l home in town or city, and the occupation of the bread earner. “There are a few things a homemaker should keep in mind: to ntake her work lighter as: never bend in doing your work when it is possible to stand erect; never stand when it is possible to sit, and never sit to rest when it is possible to lie down. It takes 12 times as much strength to stand as to lie down and 4% times as much strength to bend the body. One should relax and lie down for 15 minutes both morning and afternoon. You will notice that your speed is quickened when you start again and it really pays. “In conclusion I shall give you a few short cuts for your work. When flouring chicken put the salt, flour i and pepper in a sack and then put the chicken in and shake as we do in sugaring doughnuts. If you do not have many dishes for breakfast or lunch, store them away in a pantry or oven and wash them with the next meal's dishes, as this will save you time, soap and water. Have your drain dish pan on left and wash dishes from right to left. Use drain board and rack which will save drying plates, cups, saucers and bowls. Scald only the busi-

T. Gregory, extension pathologist of Purdue University, who points out that treatment may pay about one hundred per cent dividend. Even if there is no smut in the seed, Dr. Gregory declares that there is a new treatment on the market known as Ethyl Mercury Phosphate (New Improved Ceresan) that seems to increase yields I a bushel or two per acre, and is sure death to smut. His recommendations on the new treatment toll-e-.v; Use only one-half ounce of this dust per bushel of oats. Mix it thoroughly with the seed as is recommended on the container. Cover the seed after the treatment for at least 10 hours. It may be planted Immediately after this 10 hour covering. or it may be sacked and held for four weeks, but no longer. Do not inhale the dust nor feed the i treated seed to farm animals. The old stand-by formaldehyde treatment is sill just as good as ever, says Dr. Gregory. It will kill smut, although it does not improve yields of unsmutted oats and the treatment recommendations have not changed. Use one pint of formaldehyde in five gallons of water and apply this with a sprinkling can to 40 or 50 bushels of oats. Shovel the pile over as the mixture is being slowly applied. The latest type of formaldehyde treatment is to use three ounces of formaldehyde dust per bushel of seed oats. Mix the dust thoroughly w’th the seed by shoveling. Then sack and hold till ready to plant. Hulless oats may be treated with I the ethyl mercury phosophate, but , neither of the formaldehyde treat- ’ ments are safe to use on these varieties.

SOYBEANCROPS RETURN PROFIT I Farmers Turn To Soy J Beans As Profitable I Crop This Season (Editor’s Noto:— Reports have 1 reached us that many farmers who I would like To raise soybeans are 1 hesitant about so doing for fear 1 of lacking a market and inability j to get proper seeds. We are not in 1 the seed business but cap furnish i soy bean seed where necessary. The following news item is of great' importance to farmers in ysur section and we trust you will deem it , worthy of publication in your valued newspaper. , Central Soya Co., —Decatur. Ind.) I 1 “With the planting season close at hand farmers in this territory are turning to soy beans as a profitable crop. It is easy to raise, is immune to chinch bugs and promises good cash returns. “Since last season soy bean processing plants have been established at Circleville, Ohio; Toledo, Ohio and the large mill of the Central Soya Co., at Decatur, Indiana. This latter plant is equipped to process 1.250,000 of soy beans annually which is ample capacity to absorb more than all the beans raised in this area. “Commenting on the outloos for the current season, Henry D. Egly, vice-president of the Central Soyaj Co. said; "This is the first year that | ■ soy bean processing plants have i been available to absorb the beans| : grown in this area. While we antic-' • ipate a bigger crop for 1935, facili-l . ties are now ample to care for | more beans than will be raised in i this territory. There seems to be a i . good supply of soy bean seeds a- j . vailable for all who desire to raise them. We prefer to have growers! [ get their seeds as close to their home as possible but if neccessary j j we can supply seeds to farmers | ‘ who have difficulty in getting them in their own neighborhood.’ "In speaking of the value of soy beans as a crop to farmers, the Indiana Agricultural Experiment ! Station says: ‘Soy beans are becoming increasingly popular as a ’ hay crop, as a home-grown protein supplement and as a cash crop. : Because of their adaption to both sweet and acid soils, their compar--1 alive freedom from disease, their ! tolerance of drouth and poor drain--1 age and their adaptability to do ’ well on thin soils once they are ' properly innoculated, they can be grown throughout the state. ‘ "Properly handled they serve as t soil builders. f "The experiment station issues ' an excellent leaflet, No. 151 from i which the foregoing is quoted outlining the many uses and cultival tion of soybeans. The bulletin says t in conclusion: ‘The commercial - outlets for soy beans look promis- - ing. Both price and yield of soy beans compare favorably with those ! of wheat or any other small grain. This bulletin is available for anyone wishing it by writing to Purdue University for a copy.” 0 _ GRAIN IMPORTS SMALIAMOUNT Imports Only One-Sixth Os Country’s Average Production "Imports of all grains into the United States during the eightmonth period between July 1. 1934, and March 1, 1936, were only approximately six-tenths of one peicent of this country’ll average production of grains.” stated County Agent b. E. Archbold, here today. "This represents less than two per cent of the loss to grain crops which can be attributed directly to the drought," ho said. According to figures from the bureau of agricultural economics of the United States department of agriculture, corn imports during this same period were 6,510,000 bushels or about the normal production of a representative corn bell county, while wheat imports tor domestic use totaled 9,511,000 bushels in the same eight months, with about half of the imported «heat being drum wheat for use ue seed and special types of flour. "These figures show," say Archbold, “that there is no great danger of a grain shortage in the United States. Drought damage to wheat alone last year reduced production by about 300,000,000 bush-

els, while the agricultural adjustment administration wheat control program lopped off another 60,000,000 bushels, and, to date we have imported only an insignificant amount of wheat. The condition of the corn supply is also better than generally thought with less than one-fourth of one per cent of our annual average production being imported to date." “Imports of oats, barley, and rye, for which there are no adjustment programs were relatively greater for the same period than the Imports of corn and wheat.” (f TEILSOF CREAM ACTION IN MILK S. E. Brown States Centrifugal Cream Separators Are Necessary (Editor's Note:— The action of cream in milk has been explained as follows by S. E. Brown.) “The first centrifugal cream separators were sold solely by proving to dairymen two generations ago that only a part of the butterfat in milk will rise to the surface; and that the only way the remainder can be retrieved is by centrifugal separation, winch tremendously multiplies the’force of gravity. “Most dairymen today believe that if no cream rises on the skim milk their cream separators are ! performing perfectly. This may be I far from the truth. A very large ! portion of the butterfat in the milk i may still be there and can be found I only by a Babcock test. “Several years ago it was discovered by scientists, that only about i 80 percent of butterfat will rise to I the surface by gravity. This is due j to the fact that butterfat is a liquid I enclosed in a sack much like air is . held in a toy balloon. Some of these : sacks are very tiny-so small they | can be seen only with a microscope; others are much larger. “These larger ones come to the surface quickly. Some of the smaller ones never get to the top; they become lodged under neath other milk solids which prevent their rising. Even if all the milk solids were removed, not all the butterfat would rise. “Some of the butterfat globules are so tiny that the difference between the pull of gravity on the butterfat inside and the milk solids outside is not great enough to lift the butterfat globules through the liquid. The only way these small particles can be recovered is by a centrifugal cream separator.” —, -o- —.

CLEAN POULTRY HOUSES NEEDED Purdue Expert Urges Daily Cleaning of All Brooder Houses “Dally cleaning of the brooder house and surrounding ground is the most economical and effective known means of combating outbreaks of cocidiosis on the average farm,” says Stephen M. Walford, of the Purdue University poultry extension division, who points out that once the disease gains entrance to a flock of chicks i (usually between the sixth and eighth week of the chicks’ lives) it is rapidly transmitted to the ’ whole flock by means of the droppings of infected chicks. Walford points out, however, that the oocyste (eggs, of coceidia , remain harmless until they have I been outside the body of the chick for at least 24 hours, and If during this period the infected droppings are carefully removed, infected chicks will eliminate the original infection in about a week, and the outbreak will be checked. On the other hand, he declares that if the infected droppings are available to healthy chicks, a prolong- ’ ed outbreak will result, with ac- ' companying heavy mortality. As a result, the thoroughness of the dai- ! ly cleaning will play a large .part 1 in determining the duration and severity of the trouble. ’ Since this daily cleaning sched- ' ule involves only an outlay of time [ and the expense of new litter, Wal1 ford declares that poultry raisers can usually well afford to adopt ’ it any time that the growing flocks 1 becomes droopy and listless, even 5 before it is possible to get a defi- ’ nite diagnosis, and thus get con--1 trol measures into effect before * more expensive expedients may be 3 found necessary. Although diagnos- ! is is relatively simple, he points ” out that a call on the local veterinarian will help in locating the ’ deep-seated cause of the trouble, - and thus assist in preventing a rey currence of the outbreak. r -o—---r Wanted No Grief At Death s Redding Ridge, Conn -(U.R) —Mrs. - Minnie Teets requested that when she died there be no funeral sers vices, published obituary notice and - that her body be”cremated and the y ashes scattered, believing death - should not be cause for grief.

| Striped Chickens Are On Display At W. Giadfeiter Home* Walter Giadfeiter has an unus-i ual pen of chicks at his home on; North Second street. The ‘birds 'are pink and white striped. Their beaks and legs are also a bright pink. Mr. Giadfeiter was able to grow these chicks in thia manner by feeding them protein vegetable dyes on alternate days. He stated that if he had fed the birds the dye every day they would have been all pink. He learned how to grow these colored chicjcs while at Purdue University. For the experiment he used white leghorn chickens. From the tlffie they were a week old they were fed capsules containing the dye every 48 hours. Now each 24 hours of growth of the feathers can be seen by the alternate bands of colors. The coloring in no way injures the birds. They will retain the barred effects until they lose their first feathers by molting. Mr. Giadfeiter stated that other experiments at Purdue University have revealed that the feeding of

Os this total, $17,573.992.13 has been put into the hands of corn-hog producers, $3,131,259.52 went to wheat growers, and $156,129.35 was distributed among tobacco raisers. According to Dean J. H. Skinner. Purdue University, most of this money has been used to pay delinquent taxes or has come into the hands of retailers over the state through purchases made by cooperating farmers. By counties, the adjustment payments have been made as follows: (in each case the total benefit payments received are given) Adams, $215,428.34; Allen, $329,443.02; Blackford $100,460.02; Dekalb, $226,741.30; Elkhart, $160,969.64; Huntington, $279,903.86; Wells, $295,780.32; and Whitley, $190,023.22. Each county received both wheat and corn-hog adjustment payments, and 33 counties in the southern part of the state received tobacco payments.
