A DEPARTMENT OF FARM WELFARE CONDUCTED BY &>: agent LEAMING. Pig Club Distribution Planned A distribution of pure-bred pigs to members of the Jasper County Pig club will be one of the features of the County Livestock Show at Rensselaer October 17th to 20th. Fifteen pure-bred pigs were distributed to as many boys in different parts of the county about two months ago by the hog breeders. Many breeders had pigs which. were not old enough to distribute at that time and these will be assigned at the Stock Show. The breeders who will distribute pigs at this time are: Robert Yeoman, two HampShires to Russell Bible and Frank Morton; Firman Thompson, a HampShirttb'Bay Pettet; Simon Thompson, a Hampshire to Albert Lewis; E. P. Lane, a Hampshire to Wade Holmes; Fred Phillips, a Hampshire to Ralph Schafer, and Gus Yeoman, a Duroc Jersey tb Paul D. Yeoman. Hog raiwra report that the industry ia so exceedingly profitable that they are glad to help a good thing along by distributing good breeding stock to worthy young men under special favorable conditions to the latter. The Weew of September 30 Is Seed Corn Week. The week of September 30th has been designated as “Seed Corn Week” for Jasper county by the extension forces of the state. A survey of the county indicates that the majority of the corn growers whoso crop is fit for seed have already given the matter considerable Attention. There are numerous farmers, however, who are expecting to improve upon their seed, stock by purchasing improved corn from their neighbors. In order to assist these men, the county agent office has prepared a short list of names of farmers who have unusually good strains of corn and who are willing to have seed'picked from their fields. In most instances these men will also pick seed corn for others if the orders arte left at once. The forehanded farmers will grasp the unusual opportunity of wide selection which he has this year and improve his com strains to the limit Attention, Poultry Grower*. All poultry raisers Who use anthracite coal to' heat, their brooders are advised to file with the county agent at once the amount of coal needed for their I*l9 bperations. Professor AL G. Phillips, head of the poultry department ht Purdue, states that jf this is done at once he can is neglected until brooding time, it will be impossible to supply the heeds. ForafaandSfarmers wfll heed the adJ

vice of Prof. Phillips and thus keep up one of the most profitable side lines pf their farms. t Clean Seed Being Sown. That Jasper co upty k . farmers are doing their best $0 keep up with all the new methods of crop production has been illustrated by a report of a prominent druggist upon the sale of formaldehyde to farmers for (treating seed wheat. He reports that five times as much formaldehye was sold this fall for treating'seed wheat as was sold last year. Enough Rosen seed rye has been distributed to sow one and one-half times the total acreage of. rye harvested in the county .this season. -. Several thousand bushels of the hardiest varieties of wheat have replaced bs many bushels of the softer varieties. It will not be the fault of the majority of our farmers if the “Liberty Harvest” of 1919 exceeds by far anything that has ever been produced in the county. Farmers’ Club Meeting*.

The following program has been arranged and everyone is urged to come: Song—“ Marching Through Germany” Song Jordan township schools Play—“ Thank Goodness, the Table Is’Spread” - Song— Talk—“ Liberty Loan.” Club Meeting at Aix

In reply to questions in regard to jelly making that have come up to the office in the last week. To be satisfactory, jelly must be made from fruit juice containing pectin and acid, when cooked with sugar in the right proportions, makes jelly. Proportions for jelly— In making jelly without the alcohol test, follow these directions: In case of currants and under ripe grapes, use 1 cup sugar and 1 cup juice; with raspberries, blackberries, blue berries, sour apples, crab apples, quinces, wild cherries and green gooseberries, use 3-4 cup sugar to 1 cup of juice. This applies to the first extraction of juice and to the latter

extraction. After they have been boiled to the consistency of the first extraction. Pectin In Fruitts—

The best fruits if on jelly making are those whichi oontain both pectin and acid. The pectin, rwhieh is the fundamental jelly making quality,-does not exist in all fruits, and it is more abundant in slightly under-ripe fruits, for as fruit ripens it is believed that the heat of the sun changes the pectin into fruit sugar. Therefore, fruits which are not. over ripe are most satisfactory for jelly making. -* Apples, currants, " gooseberries, grapes and oranges are most commonly used for jelly making. Some fruits rich in pectin but do not contaih sufficient acid are peaches, pears, ces, sweet apples and grave. With these acid may be added by use of crabapple or under ripe grapes. Jellies may be made from fruits such as cherries, pineapples, rhubarb, strawberries, which have acidity but lack the necessary pectin. Pectin can be extracted from white parts of orange peel and added to these juices. Pectin can be purchased for use in jelly making but it is prepared fresh as suggested Using lemon is good if care is taken in not adding too much, which makes too strong flavor. If half the fruit selected is ripe and the other half under ripe, the ripe fruit will furnish fine flavor and color while'the under ripe fruit will contain the jelly making property. For example, bunches of grapes are likely to contain some grapes less ripe than others; in some cases those I actually green. Use the entire bunch. To Make Jelly With Corn Syrup. The following recipes have been tested in the Home Economics Laboratories, Purdue university, under Mary L. Mathews: Jelly making with corn syrup will not retain its shape so long as that made with sugar. A firmer jelly may be made by using 50 pct sugar and 50 pct. corn syrup. In using corn syrup the juice should be brought to the ‘boiling point before the syrup is added, then boil under the proper consistency. When using syrup, use an equal amount to your fruit juice. - ■ v \ Winter Jelly Making. Fruit juices may be canned and made into jelly as wanted during the winter. This is a good plan if you are short of sugar now. Then too, the jelly always tadtes fresher when made as it is used.. Fresh jelly for your table in mid winter. Mrs. Z. T. McMurray, of Kniman, says: “I Mke to can my juice and make it up into jeUy in the winter. The juice gets thicker, richer arid the scum seems to add to the flavor of the jelly.”-. Mrs. Frank Tillett, of Gillam township, says: “I often use vanilla or banana flavoring with my apple jeUy in order to make a variety. I use 1 to 2 glasses of jelly, adding the flavoring immediately after removing juice from the stove.” Mint added to apple jelly and green coloring makes a jelly nice to usetwfth pork.

SCOTT HILLIARD RECHIVES LETTER FROM SAM DUVALL

i».r.r^ 4 £Sfs: '—‘ *•• ““• ®°Si®B£ S®l VWrW!!«S teen days and advanced our lines nearly thirty miles, so, perhaps you can form some idea froip-that as -to the nature of what we just went through. The ground is covered with dead hdrs'es, smashed airplanes, autos, wagons, guns and everything -in: tire wayyot ammunition, provisions, etc. If I had a wagon d would toad it up with Boche helmets and anything you might ask for, but that is impossible, so I have gathered a few different articles I will send before many day a Enclosed in this letter is a piece of Boche airplane wing. The explanation Is this: tovery time a bullet or piece of shrapnel , goes through a German airplane's wings it’s a custom tor them to put a little patch over the hole with an iron cross painted upon ft and also paint the date upon the wing, so if you will notice I have cut a piece with records of a battle the first pt J ply. I also have a picture of what was left of his machine and also himself. He was fried fit for a king’s taste and I pulled bls head off and put it up pn a gun so we could gel a better picture of his good looking teeth and profile. When I get my pictures developed I’ll send you a few of such scenery. I sent you a great many other things that you have never mentioned receiving. I have the helmet of the German I caught and some, other things I took off of him. ' I have an officer’s helmet,.a saw bayonet they use, and belts, buckles, canteens, etc., that I’ll try and send you when 1 go home on my next permission. If 1 can’t send these articles I will keep them and send them to -you by Laura (my wife) when she goes to America this coming winter to see my mother and father. I was very, glad to hear from you and I only wish that I could send you more for I could pack that window full. Best regards, and write - again some time. SAM DUVALL.
