Department of Farm Welfare Conducted by County Agent

Tractor Demonstration. The tractor demonstration held on Mr. Gangloff’s farm, one mile east of Rensselaer, brought farmers from far and near, who, by their actions, were intensely interested in all of the tractor outfits, which were doing a splendid job of plowing. They all did fine in keeping down to the seven inch mark. Mr. Nor-

man, from Perdue, was the judge secured and took charge of the demonstration. He eliminated the fuel test because of the many tractors that are liable to lead us astray. But I have heard many reliable men say that the demonstration was a grand success and that all the dealers were all put on a fair basis for demonstrating their outfits. Understand, gentlemen, that fairness was the aim of demonstration and last and by far the least, its purpose was a school lor the farmer where he could judge for himself the outfit he most desired. The field was also a good demonstration field as it was about the same all over. Along toward the last all the tractors were lined up and sev-

eral pictures were taken of them, also as much of the crowd as could be gathered in. The tractors that were entered in the demonstration are as follows: Sampson, two bottom plow. Oil Pull, three bottom plow. Case, two bottom plow. Case, three bottom plow. Fordson, two bottom plow. Emerson, three bottom plow. Go Tractor, three bottom plow. Huber, three bottom plow. Shorthorn Tour. The ladies and men that were on the Shorthorn tour of the county were well repaid for their trip. We learned that our county has many herds of Shorthorn cattle that are

THE TWICE-A-WSEK DEMOCRAT

not only backed up by noted ancestors but are of the type that make fine show animals. We also got more acquainted with each other’s herds as well as the individual owners. Men, these tours are of great benefit to all of us, for /we can readily see that the pure bred cabtie outshine the scrub in' their upkeep. Then, too, a fine bunch of pure bred animals adds value to the farm as paint to the building. The forenoon tour took in the fine herds of Mr. Wm. Wortley, James Amsler and Percy H. Hauter, of Marion township, and Mr. Parkison of Barkley township. , The best part of the tour came during the noon hour which was spent eating a most bountiful picnic dinner

in Mr. John Selmer’s grove. After dinner we listened to short snappy talks by Mr, Harvey Williams, of Remington; Mr. Russell Van Hook and Percy Hauter of Rensselaer. After visiting the Selmer fine cattle we toured to Mr. Wm. ■'Hershman’s where we looked upon a fine large herd of cattle, Even though we were interested the fine animals both large and old, we journeyed on to Mr. Floyd Amsler’s where we found his field spotted with the Shorthorn bovine. This being the end of the tour we departed our several ways.

Not counting the polar regions, the world has about 30,000,000,000 acres of waste land.

NOTICE, MR. FARMER! We have now on hand a complete line of Goodyear Drive Belt* for youg tractors and steam engines. Also, we handle a fall Une of Steam Packings and Garden Hose at WHITE FRONT GARAGE, Kty boske & Walter, Props.
