How much do farm bulldings affect farmers’ profits from livestock and poultry? This is the first of a series of articles on modern farm bulildings by national authorities. By C. P. TOBIN ‘ Farm Building Engineer LAFAYETTE, IND.—The profit in dollars and cents from using up-to-date farm buildings usually is difficuit to determine. But Casper ‘Rausch, a poultryman living near here, recently made a test which showed that profits from raising chicks depend as much on the ‘brooder house as on breeding and

Rausch tested two houses, an ordinary one and a new type of insulated cylinder brooder adopted by many poultrymen in the past few

Started 600 Chicks

Rausch started 800 chicks in each .house on the same day. He kept a ‘careful record of costs. His profit ‘from the pullets raised in the ordinary house was $53.44. Those raised in the cylinder house ylelded . profit of $70.11, or 31 per cent ‘more. ! His records showed the differ .ence was due to the better protec‘tion afforded the chicks by the -cylinder house. For example, 27

11 in the new house. Twenty in the ordinary house were barebacks, against 16 in the cylinder house. The cylinder house chicks, when sold, averaged nearly two ounces heavier. : . The better record of the cyuna;_ house was not due to its round roof but because it was adequately insulated. Celotex insulating board ‘was used to line the walls and roof. ‘This reduced the loss of heat from the stove and helped maintain corTect, even temperature inside the ‘house despite variations in the weather. ~ This is important because varyi”" temperatures inside a brooder weaken chicks, cause them to grow slowly and unevenly and to feather out improperly, reducing their mar ket value. ;

House Easy to Ventllate The insulated cylinder house also is easier to ventilate properly. It can be kept dry and free from. drafts, something that is impossible with uninsulated, poorly ventilated brooders. : Rausch also found that the cylin-der-type house was easier to work in, simpler to keep clean and less expensive to build than ordinary ‘brooders. Plans for its construction can be obtained from at least one lumber dealer in almost every city

THE LIGONIER BANNER, LIGONIER, INDIANA

SIGNS OF THESE TIMES By Dudley. A. Smith The ‘“handwriting upon the wall” will become fairly intelligible by the end of May, the month of primary elections and Americac will be informed with a reasonahle degree of accyracdy that Franklin D. Roosevelt will be returned to the White House with a greater popular votz than e received in 1932. ;

States already heard from as to results of presidential preference primarieg have indicated that the popular support of Prsident Roosevelt is at least 2-to-1 greater than can be mustered by the combined strength of his confused opponents.

Wisconsin 'and Illinois primaries have astounded the nation with the large complimentary votes given to Mr. Roosevelt in elections where his name has stood unopposed and not even soliciting a demonstration of popular supprt. Wiscnsin gave him a 2-1- vote over the most liberal of Republican leaders, the doughty Senator Borah. Illinoig poured out a 1,300,000 popular endorsement, almost double the vote received by the warring Borah and the “favorite son” Colonel Frank Knox reactionary. Thus, it is indicated that no matter which way the Republican national convention goes, whether it nominates a liberal or a conservative to oppose Mr. Roosevelt, he will be swam.ged in Wovember by the popular acclaim that will go to Roosevelt and the New Deal. :

- In May Presidential preference primarieg are to be held in Mary land, California, South Dakota, - Alabama, Ohio, West Virginia, Oregon, and New Jersey. Other in lowa and Florida will be held early in June. Some indication of how California will vote is given in registration figures which show that the Democrate party in Los Angeles County since 1932 has gained more than 470,00 members and is leading Republican registrations by 250,000. J

For months, enemieg of the New Deal have been attempting to make it appear that there are large numbers of Democrats in the nation who dislike the Roosevelt policies and who are clamoring for a return to Jeffer sonian Democracy. But where are they 'during these primaries when party members are privileged to change the complexion of their tickets? Not a single respomsible Demo cratic organization in any state has even suggested a contender for thea unanimous honors which Mr. Roosevelt is about to receive from his party in convention assembled. -

The truth is of course, that those who are wailing about the death of Jeffersonian Democracy are mostly Republicang or Tories who have never:in their life-times understood or cared about the Jeffersonian tenants of political government. The fact is, few of them know that there is any diffrence between Jefferson and Hn:mlltb‘en lines of political thought and not one has eo_mparod the deeds of the Roosevelt administration with the writings of the Sage of Monticelid

Thomas Jefferson was the friend of labor and ardent champion of the farmer. He was the father of the “American Bill of Rights” which are embodied in the first Ten Amendments to the Constitution and was the author of that immortal docuent, the Declaration of Independence. Everywhere in the works of Franklin D. Roosvelt can be discerned ‘he guidance of Jeffersonian teachings. The preservation of democracy free from dictations of plutocrats and economic dynastieg has been the constant Roosevelt aim. He has fought valiantly for the rights of the comman man, for the supremacy ol human rights over property rights and for the preservation of a Union of State which is capable of promoting the welfare of all citizens. . Small but powerful groups with special axes to grind bave harassod the Roosevelt administration thongh out. They have been vociferous and

persistent in their demands. They have attempted to create public opinfon and to speak for the majority. Witness the gigantic lobby fraud when public utility companies spent over $1,800,000 in sending fake telegrams tp Congresg against the Holding Company bill. Witness the millions that haye been poured into the Liberty League the Crusaders, the Sentinels of the Republican and other phoney associations to subsidize propaganda campaigns, speakers, radio dramas and vicious 'iterature fighting the New Deal.

President Roosevelt frequently has said that it is his policy to look at all governnmental problems with the welfare and view-point of the great mass of American citizens in mind. He has regarded government of the Nation as being of no essential difference from the government of a small community where the welfare of majority of citizens is of paramount consideration and where neither the whimg of the radicals nor the selfishhness of greeedy conservatives must be allowed to reign.

Wild Bill Cummings - Misses Lucky Seven

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.— A bi 5 seven is a lucky number for Wil Bill Cummings but last year he tried to make it the “hard way.” In 1934, Bill had a nice big seven on his car when he drove it to vietory in the 500-mile race at the Indianapolis Motor Elp‘ecdny but by the very virtue of victory, he lost his favorite numeral. Car numbers are alloted at Indianapolis according to the championship rating of the drivers, Cammings being national champion earned and was required to use No. 1. The former Indianapolis bundle-boy was in & blue funk. He wanted his favorite No. 7 but Lou Moore rated that diﬁ and couldn’t switch it even if 80 desired. i 14

Bill eyed the tail of his car sadly as the official sign painter inscribed a two-foot No. 1 upon it. It was the number everyone would have been proud to carry but it didn’t spell luck to Cummings. Then the whistle blew and the number artist went to lunch. Bill seized a small brush and at the base of the figure one, very small and faintly, he put “+ 6.” But, as the gamblers say, he was trying it the “hard way” and Bill finished third in the race last m but second in national mm Lm he must carry No. 2 perps, a small “+ 5.”

FARMER IN GOOD POSITION

Increased Income and Tower Debt Charges Prove Real Help

A smaller part of the farmer's 'ncOß" now goes to pay farm mortgage interest than at any time gince 1929 W. I. Myerg farm credit administration governor statei. “Increased Income and lower debt chageg have put ths farmer in the mwst favorable position with respect to interest naiy n<. tince befory the depression.”” Mvers sald

“Lower Intsrost vates, debt conciliations and other factors have lifteq a $160,000,0)) interest Iload from the farmer’s bck since 1032 and reduced the iotal farm mor‘gage interest bill te th 2 lowest prunt since 1917,” he continued.

According *o his statement ihe farmer's wortgage interst bill, which rose to n:t_r!y {9 per cent of gross farm income im 1932—the a!l-time high point—dronpe] to 5 per cent in 1935, compared to 4.7 in 1329, The interest bhill, which stood at $510,009.000 in 193 dropped steadily to approxiwately 35250,000,060 in 193 L. “No decrease in mortgage interest even remotely comparable to the drop in farm income occvrred nntil 1933,” Myers continued. “While gross farm income dropped 53 per ceont from 1929 ‘to 1932 the interest charges on mortgag, debts dropped wonly 8 per cent. “In 1933, however. due to refinaneing at lower rates and shrinkage in total debt volume, the interest bill dropped sharply. ' total decrease to 1935 wasg 32 per cent he rednection, accompanied by the increase in farm commodity prices since 1933, has restored the pre-depression relationship hetween farm income and the farmer’s interest obligations.” The governor said marked improvement {n Intorest ecallectins on federal land “ark loams over t-'e past two yarg leads him to believe that a similay ‘mnrovemen' in payments on farm morigage debts ‘n general has also occurred.

To Check Farm Benefits,

A program co-op2rative rescarch will be begun by the soil coservation gservice and the bureau of agricultural econobics for a more accurate check on economic and social benetits and erosion control practices, ac cording to Secretary of Agriculture Henry A. Wallace.

The studies will contracts the economic the rura] life effects on uncontrolled erosion and soi] depletion on the one hand, and definitely planned erosion control measures on the other. '

Research work, Wallace said, will follow four general lines: 1. A study of the econome and social cnditions at the time erosion control measures are begun. This study alsp will determine to what degree soil erosion in the past has influenced the present stituation.
