THE NEIGHBORHOOD CORNER

A DEPARTMENT OF FARM WELFARE CONDUCTED BY COUN TY AGENT LEAMING. Poole Outyield* Gypsy. The Poole variety of wheat outyielded the Gypsy five bushels per acre in a field triad recently completed on the R. A. Parkison farm in Barkley township. Last f all three acres of Poole and five acres of Gypsy were sown side by side in a well drained field on this farm. The Poole threshed out 79 bushels, or 26.3 bushels per acre, while the Gypsy yielded 104 bushels, or 20.8 bushels per acre. This fall Mr. Parkison will sow Poole exclusively. Under his conditions he believes that it will outyield all o’ther varieties consistently and considers that the fact that it is beardless makes it more desirable by five bushels per acre than any bearded variety. The Poole wheat has many friends among the best farmers of the county. As a rule these men have well drained land and supply plenty of plant food so that the yhave little trouble with winter killing.

Make* Report on Bee Disease*. T. C. Johnson, deputy state bee inspector, who, at the instance of the writer, spent several days last week in the county to determine the extent of the-foul brood infection in the county, has requested ■ itihat the following announcement be placed in this column: “Notice to Bee Keeper* “I have been in Jasper and surrounding counties for some time looking after the interests of the bee keepers, working under the state department of conservation. 1 find a great deal of American foul brood, an infectious disease of bees. This disease is spread by the purchase of bees from diseases localities. It is unlawful to buy, sell or move bees from any diseased apiary. If you have any bees to sell or wish to buy, write to F. N. Wallace, state entomologist, and have the bees inspected. The work of inspection is free and bee keepers having any losses which they suspect due to disease should write to the state entomologist or see the county agent as he may be able to give advice. “Another factor favoring the sread of the disease is the number of old box hives and cross comb hives used by the careless bee keepers, who permit their swarms to die and other bees to rob out the hives and spread the disease. As soon as a colony becomes weak it should be closed up or removed from the yard. Box hives and cross combs are unlawful and their owners are liable to fine. The law requires all hives to have removable frames, and these may be secured by the use of full sheets of foundation. “There will be no excuses accepted for box hives or cross combs the next time an inspector comes around and if any bee keeper has them he had better get busy and transfer inbo good combs. All persons who do not comply with this law in an honest effort to stamp out the disease will be prosecuted and - their bees destroyed by fire.” After visiting all parts of the county, Mr. Johnson made the statement that the foul brood infection, while severe, seems to be confined to Marion township at the present time. He insists on movable-frame hives so that the spread may be kept down. Care Needed in Purchasing Mixed Feed*.

With a probability of a shortage of feeding grains, many farmers are already placing their orders for various commercial feeds which are being offered as substitutes. i While the feeding stuff control law protects the consumer as far as chemical analysis of these feeds is concerned, great care must be observed to be sure that the sources of the protein, carbohydrates and fat are such that the substances may be assimulated by the animal. , Many prepared hog feeds contain their protein in the form of peat, alifalfa meal, oat hull, peanut hulls, i cotton seed oil, bran and other substances which are not suited to the hog’s digestive system. A more frequent cause of annoyance is the use of low grade materials in these mixtures and the addition of salt or molasses to give palataibility. Every feeder who contemplates the purchase of feeds should secure a copy of bulletin 228, “Commercial Feeding Stuffs,” and study not only the chemical but the physical analysis of each feed before purchasing. Lime Help. Wheat Yield. “T.jme and clover increased my wheat yield about 30 per cent this year,” says H. G. Bollinger, of Hanging Grove township, “and lime alone has increased it between 10 and 15 per cent.” Mr. Bollinger 5s a strong believer in lime for the Francesville prairie and has been applying lime for some time, although he has not been as successful in getting stands of clover as I he had hoped, but attributes this to unfavorable weather conditions.

NO TAX INCREASE DESPITE HIGHER VALUATION

Warren E. Poole, trustee of Hanging Grove township, filed in this office Wednesday his estimates oi expenditures-and tax levies fori 1920, and the same is published taj the Friday Semi-Weekly Republi-' can. The law requires that. “The, township trustee shall at least • thirty i3uj days, and not more' than iorty (40) days, before the t.unual meeting of the advisory uoard, in each year, (the date fixed; tv law for the annual meeting of advisory board is the first Tuesday in September, which date This year is - September 2) post at or near the door of. all post offices in the township, a statement oi t ue several estimates and amounts, ui proposed annual expenditures,; and the rate of taxation proposed .or levy against the property with-' ru such township, for the several iunds to be expended for his town-; .-.nip during the calendar year, and jliSo copies of said notice shall be published one time in the issue printed in the first week of August oi each year in the two lead-1 ing newspapers, representing the two political parties casting the . highest number of votes in such county at the last general election, and one publication in a newspaper in the township interested if there be a paper published therein.”

in 1918 Trustee Poole estimated that the amount of money needed by his township in 1919 would be $5,825, Basing his estimates on the 1918 valuation of property he asked for a 90-cent levy. I For the year 1920 Trustee Poole estimated that he will need $5,-’ 820, but that the levy to raise this amount will be but 30 cents on the SIOO, based on the 1919 valuation which is $1,940,000, or 289 per cent of the 1918 valuation. If Trustee Poole's estimate is adopted by his advisory board and the levy of his township for 1920 is made as per his request, 30 cents on the SIOO, the increase in valuation! will be more than offset by the decrease in the rate of taxation and property owners in Hanging Grove township will pay a little less township tax ij) 1920 than they paid in 1919. -—To illustrate: The average assessment in 1918 on an acre of land including improvements in Hanging Grove township was $28.43. The township levy for the same year was 90 cents on the SIOO. The owner of this average ame paid this year in taxes 25% cents. The same acre of land and .’.iprovements is valued for 1920 taxation purposes at ,$72.44, but the township levy proposed by Trustee Poole is but 30 cents on the SIOO and the township tax to be paid by the owner of this acre of land in 1920 will be 21 7-10 cents or almost 4 cents less than the amount paid in 1919. If the county and state levies can be 10-wered to cotmpensate for the increased valuation the amount of taxes to be paid in 1920 should be about the same as the amount

HUGHES, TAFT AND ROOT.

To the dissident republican members of the senate, who have bee® ihlrw’lring the progress of consideration of the . peace,. treaty, the concord existing between the three lewdwg membera of the party should, mean something. Mar. Root, former senator, former secretary of war and former secretary of state; Mr. Taft, former secretary df war and former president, and Mr. Hughes, former justice of the supreme court and candidate for the presidency at tie last election, have expressed themselves as in favor of the ratification of the treaty, with exceptions or interpretative reservations, and in ■these reservations they are practically in agreement. The only differ-. ' ence of consequence is that Mr. ■ Root would dominate article 10, concerning the preservation of national integrity from the treaty, while Mr. Taft and Mr. Hughes would make such reservation as would prevent the United States from becoming involved in war without the consent of congress—which reservation would, of course, be in complete harmony with the requirements of the national constitution. There can be no question of the sincere patriotism of any of these three men, there can be no question of their party loyalty and there can be no question of their ability. No one can doubt that they are giving advice that they honestly believe will, if followed, be for the best interests of the United States. Nor is it surprising that ■they should reach practically the same conclusions. They are able lawyers and statesmen of broad views who have given much study to both national and international affairs; consequently when they study the same document with the same purpose in mind, a similarity of conclusions

was inevitable. The little senators who have had so much to say about so little —that is, who have expressed their own views, often narrow and superficial, in so many words —might well consider the position that they are getting themselves into. Their record of achievement is not impressive, and in some cases their attitude during the war was not exactly enthusiastically helpful. While they have, of course, a following of sort, they have not the confidence of the country. On the other hand, Messrs. Root, Taft and Hughes have unimpeachable records, both as to achievement and war attitude, and the people generally have the utmost confidence in them. Theh* views transcend mere party politics, Which has biased so many of the senators, and look to the ultimate welfare of the nation. If the little' republicans of the senate have real ■patriotism, or even if they are as good politicians as they think themselves, they will fall in after their leaders and finish the treaty job promptly.—lndianapolis News.

LANDLORD’S EXPERIENCE WITH GLANDO Mr. Haushalter, the well known and energetic proprietor of the Hotel Paulding, Paulding, 0., said that for several years he had suffered from a sluggish liver, bachache and ladney trouble. He felt so drowsy and languid he could scarcely drag. II j says “I had tried a number of kidney pills and liver remedies but found no relief until I used Glando the Croat Gland Tonic. It proved to bo just what I needed. lam thoroughly convinced I would have been flat on my back if I had not used this treatment, but instead of being laid up I am feeling fine and looking after my business every day. If I feel any indication of my old trouble returning I take a Glando treatment and it puts me right.” Mr. Haushalter was dying of selfpoisoning caused by an inactive liver. This weakened the kidneys and other glands of the body. If he had not found a remedy that renewed glandular activity and removed the poison his life would undoubtedly have paid the penalty. Glando Tonic is the only remedy of its kind on the market and its numerous cures is proof enough of its great value to mankind. It is sold by druggists or will be sent direct by the 'Gland-Aid Co., Fort Wayne, Ind. Large treatment SI.OO.
