Department of Farm Welfare Conducted by County Agent

> Care of Pullets Move pullets into winter quarters before they begin to lay, the United States department of agriculture advises. All should be in winter quarters before cold weather. See that the henhouse is disinfected and that it is tight on three sides and that there is no chance for a draft to strike the hens while on their roosts. Feed for Hens in Winter ' Good kinds of green feeds for hens in winter are sprouted oats, alfalfa meal, chopped alfalfa and clover hay, cabbage and mangel beets. Cabbages may be hung up in the poultry house; the beets are 'usually split and stuck on a nail on the side wall

A Remarkable Non-Stop Run With the 12-20 • —— ■■ ■ • MJ. FRYE of Duchess, Alberta, has K * reason to be proud of his 12-20. t We quote below from a letter just received from him in which he gives details regarding a remarkable non-stop ***** run. “The effect of Advance-Rumely construction in making the Oil Pull practical is shown in a non-stop, full load plowing run I made in plowing 117 Hcrcs# “I started my Oil Pull on Sunday, April 11th, 1920, at 3:30 p. m., pulling 3-14 in. plows, sto 6 inches deep in stubble; also one section of harrow. We never stopped the motor until Friday, April 16th, 1920, from 6:30 a. m. until 9:30 a. m., the reason being that I imagined the oil gauge on the crank case was not showing the correct amount of oil, but I found everything O. K. Our next stop was on Saturday morning, April 17th, 1920, at 5:30 a. m. on account of a snow storm, making our total of 117 acres. My heavy duty, full load, non-stop run was JU hours. My total hours for 117 acres was 131 hours. No. of days and nights was (each) 6. No. of shifts of 12 hours (each) 12. “Since then I have double-disced 200 acres; summer fallowed 50 acres, cut 275 acres of wheat, and to date have never seen a piston ring, never pulled a cylinder head, and never ground a valve. The first wrench used on this motor was last Tuesday, August 31st, when I took up the bolts on one connecting rod. removing no shims whatever. “Any motor making the above heavy duty, non-stop run of 111 hours plowing must be scientifically balanced and have perfect lubrication.

of the pen about a foot above the ‘floor to keep the feed clean. Keep oyster shells, grit, charcoal and plenty of clean drinking water before the hens all the time. Giving Your Boy the Right Start Send the little people to the International Live Stock exposition at Chicago. It will exert a more captivating influence than a circus and prove infinitely more profitable. Give your boy an opportunity to develop an appreciation of animal life as exemplified by the best types there displayed. The experience will be a valuable asset to his education in an auxiliary sense, broadening his vision and aiding materially to his store of knowledge of such matters as the school room cannot afford. Every boy should be afforded this opportunity. And the iittle girls are equally attracted by such displays. Refinement of character is promoted by such a study at close range ot domestic animals as is possible nowhere else. The International

brings the wonders of the barnyard and the pasture under conditions calculated to anchor the observation thus made possible. The evening entertainment is absorbingly interesting io the younger generation. Let them see the parade, enjoy the exhilarating influence of thq music and a color scheme without a rival, trials of driving and riding skill and equipage displays not to be seen anywhere else. . The little people are entitled to a day or even an evening at the Live Stock exposition, Nov. 27 to Dec. 4, and you do them an injustice by depriving them of the opportunity. Farmers’ Federation Meeting t On Saturday afternoon, Nov. 13, 25; officers of the Jasper County Farmers' federation met in a business session in the county agent’s office. It was a very enthusiastic and Interesting meeting. The most Important business of note was that of settling up the bill ot C. S. Masterson and other minor bills and the settling of dates for the regular township meetings, which will be published later. It was also voted that the county farmers’ federation send the president, Russell Van Hook, to the state convention, which, was held on Monday and Tuesday, Nov. 15 and 16. Mr. Van Hook reports that a very good meeting was held and a more detailed information will be furnished by Joe Kolhoff and John Farrabee, the delegates from this county, who were also In attendance at the convention. Hessian Fly The fall being so late the worm put in its appearance again this fall even in the wheat that was sown after the fly free date. The fly, however, was found to be only in the larva stage and according to W. A. Ostrander, who was here Tuesday, Nov. 16, for the purpose of measuring up the five-acre corn plots, undoubtedly this long continued freeze would kill the larva but if it was in the flax seed stage this freeze would have no affect on it.

PEOPLE MUST HAVE TURKEY

Always Willing to Pay High Prices for the Chief Feature of Thank*. giving Dinner. New York spends about $3,000,000 on its Thanksgiving dinner, with turkey as its chief feature. The dealers say if it cost a dollar per pound they would sell just about as many. Turkey on Thanksgiving is traditional in America, and the farmer knows it He fattens his best birds and saves them for this day. Without realizing it the fanner thus corners the market until the price gets high enough. Then he sells. But the people will have their turkey and this year the dealers expect a greater demand than ever, although they are selecting smaller birds In order to meet it. The great part of the city’s turkey supply comes from the Middle West — Indiana, Ohio and Michigan. Maryland and Kentucky send large consignments. This year “turkey specials" are run from St. Louis. A year ago one of these trains brought 32,000 birds for the local market. Vast numbers of turkeys are raised In Missouri and Texas. The product of the latter state, where the birds feed on sage and sunflower seeds, is highly regarded. According to reports, however, the output of both of these sections has been effectively cornered this year.

John’s Thanksgiving.

* By Willis Brooks. 0 4 John Eddy shamed the laggard t i night, 0 So early was his day begun. J He breakfasted by candle light, 4 , And toiled afield till set of sun. 0 4 Then by the glow a lantern shed J 0 His cows were milked, his stock. * was fed, ~ 4 J And all his evening chores ware 4 4 done J 0 Before be tumbled into bed. 0 * J One autumn morning, on his way, 4 t The parson stopped and trged 0 4 him so 0 To come to church Thanksgiving ' t i>ay 0 0 That John at last resolved to go. 4 * But to the parson's deep regret, t J He still denied Creation’s debt. J 4 “What thanks," said John, "do t 4 farmers owe ' 4 0 For working hard for all they get?" 0 J In church that day John Eddy J 4 dreamed 4 0 He saw the sun In splendor rise, 4 f Tet from a thankless world, it 0 seemed, , No welcome went to greet the f 4 skies; 4 0 No chirping insect voice was 0 * raised; J J The , birds in heedless silence * 9 gazed; 4 4 And there, before his wondering 4 0 eyes, 0 * A morning came unsung, unpraised. J 0 Then rolling thunder shook the ’ 0 land: 4 * "Ungrateful world!” it seemed to 0 J say; 1 * 4 And from above a mighty hand ' t 4 Swept down and bore the sun 4 f away. 0 * Too late the field and forest vied J J In pleading song; in vain they cried J 4 For one sweet hour of blessed 4 0 day, 4 0 Which tardily they glorified. 0 J John Eddy, waking, spoke as one J 4 Who entertained a novel thought: 4 0 "How little man himself has done! 0 J How much for him has Nature J wrought!. 4 What lavish gifts of sun and 4 4 shower 4 i Thanksgiving comes, or come it 0 J ought, J JTo fructify the field and flower!
