24,000 FARMERS IN SURVEY DECLARE FERTILIZER PRICES ONLY ‘‘AVERAGE”

Their Answers to Questions Show That Most Farmers Think Price Not High.

“As compared to other things, do you consider fertilizer low, average or high in price?” : & ' This gquestion was answered last sumnier by over 48,000 farmers in 35 gtates. : : : it was one of 50 asked by represen—tatives of the National Fertilizer as—sociation in an aticmpt to find out just what the farmer himself thinks about fertilizer, how he uses it to make money, dnd how the fertilizer companies may further improve their chenical p’mnt food and their service 80 the former may make more money. While .it is cnly human mnature for | farmeoers or buyers of any product to feel that prices are high, nevertheless: over half of ‘the 48,094 farmers who answered this question said they think the price of fertilizer is .only. ‘‘aver—age.” , : s | Seven per cent, or an average of 7 out of cach 100 farmers who were in—tervieweéd, said the price is “low.” Nearly 35 per cent, or 35 out of 100, sajd it is “hish'' 'The remaining 7 out of 100 did not express an opinion on this question. o ‘ : Fertilizer Prices Low. - The Asscciation points out that, ac—carding to the U. 8. Department. of Agricuiture, fertilizer actually is the cheapest important. supply the farmer buys, with -the exception of. - feeds, which are 1 per cent lower. : Prices of complete fertilizer are gath—ercd from all over the country by the ‘Association. An avezaze of these shows that fertilizer ig ounly slightli higher now than before the war. The Association finds that the price has been kept reasonable despite . the phenomen_al Jump in lx;(:ages'ot factory employees, which havé\:%do},ubled since pre—war, and an increase of 80 per cent in incoming and outgoing freight, which makes up shout one-fourth of the price of fertiizer. Notwithstanding these im-— portunt increases in the manufacturer’s cost, fertilizer prices at the factory average only 9 per cent above their pre—-war level. ‘ : Though the prices of farm products have becn low, the price of fertilizer is relatively still lower. For instance, according to the latest available figures of the U. S. Department of Agricuiture, cotton and cottonseed are 49 per cent above pre-war; fruits

and vegetables are 11 per cent above; dairy products are 44 per cent above; poultry products are - 58 per cent above; meat animals are 50 per cent above; grains are 23 per cent above, and the average price of all farm products is 36 per cent above. In contrast, fertilizer prices at the fdctory average only 9 per cent above pre-war. - ~ Reports of the U. S. Department of Agriculture also show that the farmer pays an average of 56 per cent more than before the war for all the com-— modities he buys. This is further proof that commercial fertilizer, being only 9 per cent above, is relatively inex—pensivk; as compaicd: to the cost of other things the farmer buys. Helps Whole Community. - When it is remembered that fertilizer returns to the farmer an average of about $3 for each dollar invested, and that high yields are necessary it the cost of production per pound of cotton or tobacco is to be réduced, then it seems logical that the farmer should use more and better fertilizer so he can make more money on his crops this year. . : : In addition, it is emphasized that the more fertilizer used in this community, the greater will be the returm to the farmers, which gives more business- to the loeal merchant, to the banker and to all who do business with the farmer, thus increasing the _general prosperity of the -~ ity

" For the other typne of pack, the irregular, broken or extra large tomatoes can be used. Secald and cold dip te remove the skins. Mash, Fill jars. Add'l tcastoonful salt to each jar. Partially seal and process. Whole canned tomatoes look more attractive and should always be canned this way for exhibition purposes. They should be canned thle, also, when desired for salads.’ The other type of canning enables one to get more tomatoes in a jar and is excellent for soups. . - Tomato puree can also be made by cooking tomato pulp until it is the -consistency of catsup, after which it is seasoned, strained and packed hot in jars and canned. It is all ready for use when the jars are opened. After the jars of tomatoes and tomato puree are ready for canning, put them in the steam pressure cooker. Have boiling water almost to reach the rack in bottom of cooker. Fill cooker with jars, adjust cover by tightening clamps opposite each other. At the same time, see that all clamps are tight and no steam escapes except through the petcock. When steam comes from the petcock, close petcoek completely, and allow pressure to rise to 10 pounds. Sterilize 10 minutes at this pressure. Keep uniform pressure to prevent loss of liquid in jars. - v o Remove cooker from fire at the end of the processing period, and allow gauge to register zero before opening the petcock, then open gradually to prevent loss of liquid in jars. Remove jars, completely seal, invert, cool, watch for a few days, then store in a cool, dry place. :

MARK TRAIL WITH ‘FEATHER’

Limberlost Trail Will be Marked From Rome City to Portland - It is Claimed.

~ Limberlost Trail, extending from the famous Gene Stranton Porter esstate, now the Boy Scout camp for the Anthony Wayne area, near Rome City, past the old cabin at Geneva, on to Portland, is to be marked by about one hundred signs placed at intervals along the way. 0 - The new signs, the work by French Quinn of Decatur, promoter of 'the project, will be im the form of a large feather carrying the following inscription, “Limberlost Trail, Hoosier State Auto Association.” The auto association is furnishing the signs, but they must be installed by the boosters, the cost to be $BO. The signs will require a 4 by 4 post set in concrete. ' The feather, as the emblem, fits the trail because of Mrs. Porter’'s devotion to bird life in the Limberlost. In her famous story, “Freckles’,, she used the thought, “A [feather fell to earth and a soul was born.” Plans are to eventually make Limberlost Trail a beautiful drive, heavily shaded, and with beds of Mrs. Porter's favorite fiowers- along the way.

Hunting Season.

The season for lawful hunting rab-. bits, wild ducks, geese, brant, Wilson sfiipe and coot opened ’l‘\iesday: et 1 On .Octobet 15, says George Mannfeld, superintendent of the fish and game division of the state conservation department, the season opens .on prairie chicken anhd woodcock. The open season on prairie chicken is only for seventeen days. and closes with October 31. Wopdcock may lawfully be killed to and. includng November 14. After January 10th it will be unlawful to kill rabbits, and the open ‘season on dju(:ks, geese, brant, Wilson or Jack snipe and coot closes after January Ibsth. = 1 . Some confusion exists relative to the open rabbit season, Mannfeld says, -because the last legislature passed a bill which, had the Governor signed it, would have changed the season to open November 10th. “This bill failed to become a law whén Governor Leslie did not affix his signature to it. Attention is called to the forthcoming season for trapping and hunting fur-bearing animals in Indiana. This season opens on November 15th and continues to January 15th. It formerly was from November 10th to Febr‘uary 10th. The last general _assembly shortened the trapping season, but as the act was passed after the 1929 hunt ing and fishing licenses were printed, the correct open” season date on’ furbearing ainmals does not appear on the 1929 licenses. The open season date printed on the back of the license 15 ineorrect' . - Reports from many parts of the state to the conseryvation department indicate tllqt. fall hunting -and trapping will be excellent, Mannfeld says.

- Various species of deer together with buffalo and Elk will soon be established at one of Indiana's state parks, it was announced this morning by Richard Lieber, state conservation director. b . : Pokagon State Park on the shores of Lake James, in Steuben county near the Michigan. state line, has been selected as the first of the parks where these animals,Jformerly to be seen by the countless thousands, -roamed the prairies and timbered sections of this country, will be placed. This park is peculiarly adapted for keeping these animals, Mr. Lieber said, because of the timbered area, the splendid pastuers on the great slopes. and the other natural food the preserve contains. : L ; The first enclosures set aside for the animals will be in four.plots, three 20-acre enclosures and one of 60 acres Work will be started: immediately, he said, at building corrals seven feet high. The herd animals will be obtained from the . federal government which sends them to Indiana direct from some of the great national parks, ‘where they are abundant.
