Grain Growers Meeting At Liberty October 10 An important meeting of Union county farmers is scheduled for next Monday evening, Oct. 10, at the Coliseum, in Liberty. It is hoped that all farmers will be present. The speaker of the evening, the regional director of the U. S. Grain Growers, will make a clear exposition of the grain marketing proposition, and its importance at this time. Hon. James K. Mason, the regional director for Indiana, has given due study to the grain raar!cting plan through the co-operative system of farmer owned and controlled facilities, through a "non-stock and nonprofit corporation," as has so frequently been outlined as a part of the plan of the Committee of Seventeen. This promises to be an interesting occasion, and in addition to the illuminating speech promised, good music also will be provided.

TO SEE IF PREBLE FARMERS NEED LOAN FROM BILLION FUND EATON, O., Oct. 5. An endeavor will be made in Preble county, according to the county agent, E. D. Turner, to find out if any farmers of that county are in need of loans from the billion dollar fund which has been made available for agricultural loans by the recent action of congress. "This money," says Mr. Turner, "is available for any agricultural enterprices, subject to the same security as any other loans, but on long time instead of the short time that many agricultural loans are frequently made. The rate of interest is the same as the rate fixed by the federal reserve boards of the localities where the loans are made, from five to six per cent at present. "Loans are made through any farmers co-operative association which is duly incorporated and will assume responsibility for the money. Thus a farmers elevator, a co-operative shipping association, a co-operative store, or any other similar association may obtain the money for its patrons, or any bank, whether it is a member of the federal reserve or not, can get the money. A charge which can not exceed two per cent, may be made for this service, but many banks are getting the money for their patrons for nothing." "In case any farmers of Preble county are in need of loans to hold grain or for feeding stock, I shall be glad to assist them in getting their share of this fund."

Farm Sale Calendar

PERGHERON HORSES

AND ANGUS CATTLE FEATURE FARM SALE By WILLIAM R. SAXHORN There was a touch of winter in the air on Tuesday, and the wind was chill; not exactly cold but uncomfortable out in the open, and it was out in the open that the Barton sale was pulled off. This is the habit with farm sales. They are not indoor occasions. Buyers range all over the place where implements are lined up; they inspect the stock in the stables, the hay in the mow and the pigs in the pens. They are there for that purpose. But the crowd was dressed to suit the weather, on Tuesday. It was the first suggestion of fall. It wasn't a shirt-sleeve crowd. Coats were in order, and the ladies wore wraps, sufficient warning that the summer is ended. We have seen some mighty lively Eales in rainstorms, mid snowy scenes, and where the wind was blowing a gale. It all depends on the character of the crowd and the nature of the offering. If you have a competitive crowd, a big bunch that want the goods, weather cuts no ice. A Live Stock Offering The W. B. Barton and Son sale, on Tuesday, was held nine miles out of Richmond, a mile and a half northwest of Whitewater. Every farmer for miles around seemed able to find the place, and intent on being on hand. Many of them were accompanied by their wives. The ladies of the Whitewater Christian church, who served the lunch, were out in force and viewed from any angle it was a great crowd. But many were there to look on, to spend the day and to meet acquaintances, rather than for investing. This is always more or less true of farm sales. No hay, grain, standing corn, nor any household furnishings were on sale. It was an offering of good horses, pure-bred cattle, good red hogs and farm machinery, most of the live stock being registered or eligible. Aberdeen-Angus Cattle. Fifty head of Aberdeen-Angus cattle was the feature of the sale, with 12 horses, eight of them Percherons, either registered or eligible. The Angus line is a beef breed, and right now the milking strains are most in favor. j This fact had an effect on the bidding and on prices realized. Nobody went very high on cattle, although good averase prices, according to age and market conditions, was the general rule. Out of such a large offering there was a chance for quite a wide distribution, and the Barton live stock is scattered over a number of farms today. Some of the Buyers. The cattle list included a number of youngsters, and 10 cows from four to 10 years old, also eight young bulls. Some of the cows had calves at foot. Among the buyers listed we noted Ollie Long, who picked out three cows, four heifers and one calf, at a cost of $338.50. Will Paxton selected two cows and three calves at a total of $163.50. O. E. Rigel got a cow and a bull calf for $76. but not of the same family, the cow being one of the odd Jersey milkers, for family use. John Koontz took the second Jersey at $50. Bert Anderson, of Spartansburg, paid $63 for an Angus mother and offspring. Ozro Bloze paid $62 for a cow, and T. A. Irelan. of Hollansburg( paid $99.50 for three calves. T. A. Almonrode, of Ridgeville, got a young bull at $38. a heifer at $39 and an Angus cow at $57. Issac J. Mills, the new owner of the farm, paid $139 for two cows and two little heifers. Amos Hollinger selected a young bull and two calves at various prices. Sale of Horses The prize offerings in the horse sale were a handsome team of matched black colts, a fine black mare and a substantial grey team. The black colts were allotted to Don Southard at $235; Ray Barton got the black mare for $160 and I. J. Mills secured the greys for an even $200. We must not overlook a fine, lone mule, which j Pierre Helms, of Centerville, paid $27. 50 for. A wee pony colt went to Harvey Kirkman, at a cost of $26. The pony mother was not put up. J. B. Goodrich, of Winchester, was interested in the horses. He selected a pair of black, weanling colts, the two cost-j in? him SQR ' In the Hog Pen The offering in the hog pens was not overly large, consisting of 54 head, of which 30 were spring shoats. Ozro Blose. was first to set the pace, picking three of the sows at $40 each, all soon due to farrow. Bright Winters took 4 young sows at $21, also 7 feeders at $13.25 a head.

The Farm and The Farmer By William R. Sanborn ;

Henry D. Pinnick, an uncle of Harry Pinnick of Wayne, was in Richmond a few days ago. Mr. Pinnick lives in Orleans, Orange county, considerably south of here, and stated that he had decided to sow no wheat until Monday, Oct. 10. He is to sow in stubble and stated that a recent inspection showed the ground covered with fly. Harry Pinnick dropped in on us Tuesday to discuss wheat pests and the date of sowing. He said that he had taken a shot at putting in 25 acres, having finished the job last Saturday. He decided he might as well risk the fly and chinch as freezing, and went ahead. Mr. Pinnick has sown on corn ground, where his crop made around 60 bushels. He had bad luck with his wheat this year, in fact had to plow it under. Inasmuch as he had neither wheat or oats on the place this summer, and very few chinches,' he thinks he stands a fair show for a wheat crop. He cited the fact that he had grub worms to contend with in his corn this season. On pulling up dying stalks he usually found a couple of fat grubs at the root. He also tells of a neighbor who is to sow wheat on fallow land, where the grass killed out last spring, who on plowing found the field "just alive" with grubs. Wants $3.50 for Husking A farmer in the College Corner neighborhood tells of tryfng to get a good hand to husk corn, having quite an acreage to clean up. "There are so many idle men," he said, "that I figured to get one who really wanted to work at a reasonable figure, so as to sort of match up with 40 cent corn." How did you come out, was asked. "Well, a likely looking chap of around 35, a good big fellow, with a family, said he was looking for a job, hadn't done a lick of work in two months and was ready to take hold the next day. But I didn't hire him. His price was $3.50 per day, and he said that eight hours made a day, according to his figuring. Besides the $3.50 he must have a hot dinner." A Young Corn Show Theo. Gish of Centerville, savs that he has raised some pretty goo"d corn and is prepared to prove it. He hauled three large yellow ears to Richmond tha other day and put on a young corn show at a local bank; at least these ears are displayed over a banker's desk. The card attached asks: "Can you beat it?" As a matter of fact Wayne county has raised some pretty good corn this year, despite much late planting, drouth, chinch bugs, earworms and mold. We might have done better, it's true, but the average fanner talks as if grateful for the crop produced. George Benson, of Fountain City, has ornamented the top of Harry Gilbert's desk at the bank, with a "pie pumpkin" weighing 31 pounds, one Mr. Mills, who is now taking possession, secured all of these prior to the sale day, on private terms. At all events these items were not included in the sale bill. A Parret tractor, with three 14-inch bottoms was reserved at a price, which was not reached. The sale totalled something over $5,000. I. J. Mills, who was the most liberal buyer, secured the ensilage cutter at $76, a cultipacker at $41. and numerous other implements. Eth'mer Reid paid $41 for a grain drill, Gath Freeman paid $40.50 for the spreader and Elmer Harrison got the corn binder at $60. A Mr. Wendell got one of the cultivators for $32. Paul Beckett bid the shredder up to $300, and A. W. Snyder paid $100 for the disc. The hay loader cost Elwood Davenport $30. An Early Start The auctioneers, Weddie and Hindman, got away to an early start and did not clean up untii after 4 o'clock Jesse Wiechman. of the Dickinson Trust company, made the settlements and was asisted In the field work by Gus Hafner and Francis McMinn. Considerable cash was paid in at the sale.

of the kind that's handy to have in the house about Thanksgiving time. Inbreeding of Poultry A statement which is not in accordance with general practice or beyef has just been given out by the Minne-

I sota station authorities, according to me unio v. inis statement is to the effect that: "Poultry inbred 10 years at the Minnesota Station showed no signs of diminished vigor." The writer then goes on to say: "Your own cockerels are probably the best flock sires, provided you pick out the strong ones." This likely refers to "line breeding" and the fixing of a strongly marked family strain, as In the case of breeding up for egg production, through related crosses. But our Informant uses the word "inbred" in its broadest application, and may possibly mean just that. The Value of Lime Farmers are well aware of the ralue of lime and its effect supon land, wherever its need is indicated. In discussing lime at a recent farm bureau meeting an Ohioan said that "the equivalent of six Ohio counties had already gone out of cultivation, for lack of this mineral." His very pertinent question was: "Which way i3 your farm heading?" Corn 57 Years Old That an ear of Indiana corn, now 57 years old, is treasured as a keepsake by an Iowa farmer, is attested by a letter to the Farm Journal, which is printed under the caption: "Another Old Ear of Corn." The letter reads: "I have an ear of corn that will be 57 years old this fall. It was raised by Lewis J. Pence, Richland township, Grant county, Indiana." When Hens Molt Late Farm Life cites some experiments in trap nesting with relation to the dates of the molt and the production of eggs the following season. It quotes from Purdue records, and says: "At the Purdue Experiment Station a year ago last fall 83 hens were observed as to time of molt. Their trapnest records the following' year showed conclusively that the late molters averaged 123 eggs the year following; 39 September molters averaged 140 eggs the next year; 23 hens that started to molt in October laid 143 eggs the next year, while the 13 hens that delayed their molt until November, produced 157 eggs each the next year. Only two hens put off their molt until December but these two produced 164 eggs the year following. Without the trapnests and experiment station staffs, we might still be picking out the early molters, saving the culls rather than the valuable hens.
