VALLONIA BOY'S 4-H STEER IS FAIRJJHAMPION Given Hard Race for Honors by Animal Owned by Kempton Youth. Smoke, a pure-bred AberdeenAngus steer, 18 months old, who tips the scales at 980 pounds, and shown by James Lockwood of Vallonia, Jackson county, was adjudged the champion of the boys’ 4-H Club steer class at the Indiana state fair Saturday, when Judge W. J. Kennedy of St. Joseph, Mo., declared him to be the best steer he had even handled in more than fifteen years of judging at state and national shows. Smoke took the honor cooly, chewed his cud and was ready to compete in the open classes against adult beef producers today. The champion club steer was given a close race for the top honors by a pure-bred Shorthorn steer, Perrigo Jock, shown by Hugh Bartlow, Kempton. These two animals were the best of 187 shown in the calf club show which Harry F. Ainsworth of the club staff at Purdue university, declared to be the strongest calf club show ever held in Indiana. There were fifty-four Shorthorns, sixtytwo Herefords and seventy-one Angus for a total of 187, which was five more than shown last year.

Work on Huge Boulder Dam Project to Be Started by Oct. 1
Union Pacific Railroad Will Start Building Spur Track to Site. Bu SEA Brr\ Ire LAS VEGAS, N. M., Sept. I. After years of discussion and planning, Uncle Sam’s biggest construction job since Muscle Shoals, and one of the biggest since the Panama Canal, soon Is to get under way. On or about Oct. 1, actual work on the $165,000,000 Boulder Dam project will be started, when the Union Pacific railroad begins building a spur track from Bracken, Nev., just south of Las Vegas, to a point near the dam site on the Colorado river. Following this will come construction, of the great dam with its accompanying huge locks and hydro-elec-tric plants, a task* that will require years. Las Vegas is only thirty miles away and, of course, will benefit by this great development, but about the last thing the city’s leading business men want is for it to become a hectic boom town, with the resultant unstable prosperity that goes with boom towns. They arc more careful and far-seeing. Warn Against "Sharks” In fact, they warn that the Union Pacific will not employ more than 300 men in building the railroad and that work on Boulder Dam itself will not start before next spring. They also warn agairfst wild speculation in real estate, like that experienced at Muscle Shoals, explaining to investors that much of the adjacent land is at too high an altitude to be irrigated, even after the great development is completed. A number of companies to sell lots in the area already have been formed. They want prosperity and they intend to get it, but thej want the solid kind. Cost Is Enorm< us The Union Pacific trackage to a point called Summit—twenty-two miles of grading, culvert and trestle construction—will cost approximately $2,500,000. From Summit, it is 7.13 miles to the dam site. This link will be built by the Union Pacific for the government on a basis of cost, plus 10 per cent. Because of the mountainous country it represents unusually difficult engineering problems. The dam will be built at the mouth of the Black Canyon on the roaring Colorado river. On the mesas above the stream—several hundred feet from the bottom of the canyon—a city will be built to accommoc’ate workers. Elevators will take the men to and from their work on the canyon floor.
Water to Be Diverted Before the dam foundations can be laid, it will be necessary to ‘‘dry up” this flow of water. To accomplish this, four ditches will be dung; the river temporarily dammed upstream and the water to be diverted around the dame site via these ditches. When completed, Boulder Dam will impound 26,000,000 acre-feet of water into a great lake. This will develop a million horse power of energy as it passed out for irrigation purposes. Flood control works around the Imperial valley of California, and the construction of an all-American canal from the Colorado river to the fertile Imperial valley are also provided in the porject. At present, the valley gets its water from a canal that runs mostly through Mexico. The power generated will be distributed over several western states and to cities as far away as Los Angeles.
CHICKS HAVE INNING Special Attention Paid to Young Poultry at Fair. Sanitation in the care of chicks and pullets is urged in the exhibit of the poultry department of Purdue university at the state fair. The central figure of the exhibit is a giant egg which intermittently cracks open, disclosing a chick voicing a mute appeal, “help me to live.” Chicks need Warmth, sunshine, plenty of room, clean feed and clean water to grow and be healthy, according to the exhibit. Rations found successful are recommended. Pullets need clean range, roosting space, protections from parasites and disease, sunlight, clean feed and water. A successful ration for growing pullets also is included in the exhibits. Live chicks and pullets serve to attract attention to the exhibit. Stephen Walford and William Kohlmeyer, poltrymen from Purdue, are at the exhibit to talk chickens with visitors.

Leaks on a typical farm are shown an the exhibit of the farm management department in the Purdue building at the state fair. They are typified by a large barrel of water, with leaks at various spots through whicH flows a fair share of the “income.” In setting up the exhibit, the farm management department took as its model a farm in Noble county which made a labor income of $1,900 last year, and analyzed it for its flaws, as brought out by the farm record, kept in co-operation with the farm management department of Purdue. A small scale model of the entire farm is presented, with location of buildings and fields, and the comparative acreage in each crop. O. G. Johanningsmeier of the farm management department is stationed at the exhibit to discuss the ways of discovering and stopping “leaks” for farmers of the state.

LAD GETS HIGH RANK Clinton County Boy Raises Outstanding Shorthorn. A Hoosier lad from Clinton county beamed with pride Saturday during the 4-H Beef Calf Club judging while W. J. Kennedy of South St. Joseph, Mo., judge of all steer classes, praised his Shorthorn steer as one of the best he had seen anywhere in recent years and urged him to enter it in the coming International Livestock Exposition at Chicago. The boy, Hugh Harlow, 14, sophomore in the Kemptoa high school, has been an exhibitor in the 4-H Club entries at the state fair for four years, but this is his first blue ribbon. All the disappointments of former years were blotted out by the praise heaped upon Perrigo Jock, his near-perfect prize winner. Kennedy, judge of the open steer classes at the lowa state fair last week at Des Moines, said, among other things: “He's a better steer than the champion * J Shorthorn, which was also reserve grand champion of the show at lowa.” PULPIT COMES FIRST Man Who Occupies of Minor Importance, Muncie Pastor Declares. £.7 Times Special MUNCIE, Ind.*, Sept.

INDIANA LEADS ENTIRE U. S. IN CANNEDJJOODS Products Shown at State Fair Prove Extent of Industry. Indiana canned products exhibited at the state fair by 4he Indiana Growers and Canners’ Association through cooperation of the American and Continental canning companies, show the consuming public that Indiana’s canned goods are first in quality all over the world. During the last year. 600,000 tons of quality products have been canned, including vegetables, condiments, meats, soups, fruits, milk, pickles, jams and jellies. These fruits and vegetables were grown by 25,000 farmers and canned by 203 factories. Farmers received $7,500,000 for their raw products and the value of the canned products amounted to $30,000,000. Chief of the fifty products of the Indiana Canners’ Association are tomatoes, string beans, sweet corn and pumpkins. Indiana, which canned 59,000 acres of tomatoes last year, ranks first in that product, above all other states. More pork and beans are packed in Indiana than in any other state, which gives rise to the canners’ slogan, ‘‘Pack Pork and Beans to Feed the Nation.” Nearly one-half of all the pumpkin that goes in the pies of the United States also is packed in Indiana. Members of the Indiana Canners’ Association, numbering 150, attribute their leadership tq fertile soil, trained producers, nearness to market, United States inspection, cooperation of Purdue university, services of experiment station and fifty years’ experience in growing and canning.
