COUNTY AGRICULTURE NOTES.
- Good Sood Wheat. Sometime ago Mr. John Bill brought in a' bunch of Jones* Climax Wheat heads to the County Agent, which were raised, by Mr. Bill’s son-in-law, Mr. Keen, near Goodland. Tuesday the County Agent had the pleasure of being at Mr. Keen's home and inspecting the wheat. The wheat shows up fine. It is a long headed, big stiff-strewed variety of wheat The wheat could be certified as it came from a good seed company and about 99% per cent pure. Last year the wheat was not fertilized and yielded 22 bushels to the acre. Mr. Keen did not fertilize hit wheat this year and the field is yielding a * crop that is above the average for this year. Those wishing good seed Wheat will find this to be excellent seed. We are going to try and make this wheat as near as 100 per cent pure as we can by picking out all the mixed heads out of four or five shocks and using this pure seed for a test and seeding plot for next Trpctor Demonstration Postponed. The tractor men feel that the farmers are too busy threshing right noy to attend a tractor demonstration, besides bring in their tractor to take, part in same. One of the tractors that was going to be nut in the demonstration is now pulling a threshing machine and it would be impossible to get it now. So it is the sentiment of all concerned' that tiie tractor meet be announced for Saturday afternoon, July 31st, be postponed until a later date. Watch the papers for new date of demonstration. Poultry Culling Demonstration. All the ladies should take advantage of the Culling Demonstration to be held on Wednesday, Aug. 4, 1920. One at Mr. Alfred Duggleby’s west of Tefft at 9:30 in tiie forenoon and at Mr. Oscar Hauler’s in the afternoon at 2:30 two miles south east of Rensselaer.
The following letter was sent to us by the. Purdue Poultry Department for the benefit of us aH. "Conditions indicate a profitable year for- the hen in Indiana. We hope Jou obtain your share of the profits. “May we venture a few suggestions to you? Two or more culling demonstrations will be held in your county by members of bur department under the supervision of your County Agent. Don’t miss the chance to attend one of these because culling the flock can now be done easily, accurately and profitably. You’ll save feed, make money and improve the breeding qualities of your birds. “Regardless of cost it will be profitable for you to feed your chicks throughout the summer. If hatched in May or later they will mature earlier if fed on meat scraps, tankage or milk along with mill feeds throughout August and September. Keep chicks growing and never starve them, for fall eggs are desirable and profitable. “Sell all slow growing, under, sized males or females now, as broilers. The price will drop faster than will be their gain in weight Don’t plan to breed from slow growing cockerels and later maturing pullets are poor breeders. “If you are interested in utility judging of poultry, send to us for leaflet on the latest methods and. -then plan to make an entry in the newly added utility class of the poultry department at the State Fair. Judging hens for past egg production, and competition along this ling should interest you as farmers. . “Keep up summer egg production by feeding more heavily of mash than you have been doing during the spring. It will retard the milt and keep the hens in good physical condition. Yours truly, Purdue poultry Department.”
GAY WITH PLUMAGE OF BIRDS
Member* of Warlike Tribe of the Upper Amazon Remarkably Expert In Feather Working. The most numerous and most warlike of the many native tribes of the upper Amagon and its tributaries are the Mundurucus, each of whose settlements has its own military organization, with barracks in which, the fighting men sleep, their arms at hand, always ready for battle The Mundurucus are the most expert .feather-workers in tropical America, the warriors wearing beautiful garments of bird’s plumage, with rosettes of brilliant feathers on the forehead, or sometimes diadems of alligator scales. The which the chiefs carry tn their, ceremonial dances are admirable worts of art, being made by fastening dipon a long wooden rod the white and yellow feathers from the breast of the tsuits tsp such a “scepter" expands into a wide plume composed of the long tail-feathers of mataws and logons. To preserve it from injury, ths wand of authority is kept in a cylindrical case when not required for use on feast days. As a part of the costume, a crescent-shaped breastplate of turtle shell, so thin az to give out a dear note when strack. Is worn.— Pittsburgh Dispatch. “ -k

QUAINT OLD NORWEGIAN CITY
Bergen Known for Many Thing* Bo•ide* IM Proverbial Wrtnm » Waa Homo of Ole Bull. v The old Norwegian port of Bergen la known as th* rainy city. “Always cany an umbrella in Bergen,” la the rule widely followed both by inhaMtanta and strangers. That the umbrella Is an accepted part of the Bergen costume is shown by the extravagant old saying that a man once walked la the streets of Bergen without an umbrella, at which sight the horses werewo frightened that they reared and shied and even ran away. In spite of Its reputation, Bergen has many beautifulsunny days, when the only reason for wearing an umbrella would be to codforxp to custom. Whatever th* atmospheric conditions, the fish market of Bergen is the post crowded and noisy place in town. Fishwives are excitedly trying to sell their flopping, wriggling wares to undecided customers, while other buyers and venders grow heated over the price of herring or trout. Away from this fascinating scene of confusion, in a quiet little park, is another significant phase of Bergen’s interests. Here is a statute of Ole Bun, Norway’s great violinist. Ole Bull was' born in Bergen, and he now lies in its graveyard. The city’s tribute to - this genius is this statue of him, standing, as Ms fellow citizens had so often seen him stand before them, with his violin ready to play, but listening first to the rain and the birds and the talk of men that he might convert them into the language of the violin. This simple statue embodies more truly the spirit of Bergen than Its scrambling, moneyhoarding markets, or its flippant attitude toward the weather probabilities.
HAVE THEIR OWN LANGUAGE
1 No Doubt at All That Bird* and Beasts Hold Communication With Each Other. - . ■ w That phrase, “dumb animals,” betrays more Ignorance of the life around/* us .than any other ever invented by our race, for, though no species save man has an articulate language, no one who has watched and attended to the ways of birds and beasts can doubt that they very thoroughly manage to convey to each other their wishes .and 1 Intentions. Each, in its own way, communicates with Ite fellows, and if the * language Is not oar language It at any i rate serves their purpose exceedingly j well. Certainly the amount of Individ- { uality that there is among the different , specimens of the same species can only | be realised by those who have had ■ much to do with wild creatures. No - one mammal or bird Is ever In character and behavior the exact duplicate of the next; each differs in some way from its neighbor, so you can never depend on any two animals doing exactly the same thing under the same circumstances —in fact, we find that Individuality reigns as supreme throughout Nature as it does throughout man, but then, after all, man is a part of Nature. —Frances Pitt In the National Review (Hngland.)
Arctic Terns Love the Cold.
For a long time it ws thought that the golden plover bore off the palm for length of flight between summer and winter homes, but now that distinction Is awarded to the arctie tern. This bird breeds as far north as it can find anything stable on which to construct its nest; it has been found within seven and a half degrees of tee pole. And teat nest was found surrounded by a wall of newly fallen snow which the mother bird had carefully scooped dirt from round her chick. The tern arrives in th* far north about June 16, and leaves again tor the south toward tee end of August, when tee young are able to fly strongly. Two or three months later the birds are found skirting tee edge of the antarctic continent, 11,000 miles away. What their track is over that vast space no on* yet knows.
Mouse Fights Snakes.
Everyone has heard of the remarkable combats of the Indian mongoose with venomous snakes, in which little rfkfcitlkki-tavvl comes off victor. The fact that ttev’mongoose invariably survives has lad to fee suggestion that it is immune to snake poison. Otter animals said to be immune are Che pig and the hedgehog. The experiments of a British natwraliat show that an animal ufutte farm Misu famßr must be added to the list of immune. This animal is known ti the tarot and la said to fight fiercely with vipers. Large doses of vi* par's poison were injected into one tarot, from which Injection no ill effects followed. On one occasion a tarot was badly bitten in the eye by a vipor and no signs of poisoning fai- * ■ --T—- A—- •* -A ’

WINTER SPRING OR SUMMER
you can't beat the Franklin Automobile. No freezing or hard starting, no upkeep in..,comparison to average car, no plumbing or cooling troubles, no rattle-ty-bang over rough spots, slow depreciation and noregrets. The more we-travel the Franklin way the louder we want to scream out ; against . these fish-bteiped, featherless, knocking birds, that .claim they can duplicate Franklin performance with their water cooled money-burning automobiles. It’s always some error of creation who nfever rode or drove more than a our car. These birds fly too lbw .for our gun Makes us look down tell ’em, owners, yob’re wise men,, We. don’t claim to have the only automobile —-just the best one. And,, brethren, at this meeting we introduce. the newest member of the Workiri’ crew. A pace setter for" the human race. Made a good mark because he ran, on the level. A man At last who says he . doesn’t want the earth'(not even his alloted six feet), a man who says he’s going to work as long as he lives and live as long as he works. He sleeps at night and stays wide awake in the day time (yes, even in church). ■One has to prosper to 'stick "SO years in the same business, and he has to stick 20 years to prosper at some businesses. Jesse Gwin '/is the man who stuck. Stuck to his. work, and never “stuck” a customer. He’s served his sentence of 20 years at hard labor and we- have secured his pardon and will help him enjoy it. As usual, his headquarters will be at the lumber office but from now on his hind quarters will be found in a Franklin front seat.’
