The meeting, which will be held In the high school auditorium, Saturdayevening, has been planned for some time, and it was desired to have Brown or some other state officer as the speaker, but it seemed impossible. Now that it is known that Brown can be present and Crawford as well, officials expect a good attendance Saturday night, which will be the first occasion in which all members of the county will have an opportunity of meeting each other. RANDOLPH FANCIERS TOLD HOW TO GULL WINCHESTER, Ind., Oct. 17. A meeting of Randolph county poultry fanciers was held Friday of last week at the home of Mona Thornburg, one mile south of Winchester, to receive instruction In the selection of breeding stock and culling of the flock for laying hens. P. G. Riley, of Purdue, was present to give demonstrations. Hens must be fed for egg production Riley stated, 6aying that hens will only pick. 20 per cent of their living. Average production of Indiana hens is only 35 to 40 eggs per year, and hens which produce no more than this are kept at a loss. A warning Is Issued by county agent R. A. Fields to Randolph county farmers to house their flocks for the winter to prevent disease and keep up egg production. Only in case of pul lets to be used as breeders does he advise allowing them to range even on warm days in winter. Few flocks have been housed yet, according to a survey of the county, which Mr. Fields has recently conducted. SENATOR GORE PROGRESSES IN FIGHT TO REGAIN SIGHT WASHINGTON. Oct. 17.

The Farm and The Farmer By William R. Sanborn

If you are interested ia Shorthorns, you surely will want to attend the sale of the Union District Shorthorn Breeder's association on Thursday, Oct. 19. It Is to be held on the Joseph Witter farm, In Union county, about five miles east of Liberty, and three miles northwest of College Corner, Ohio. This Is the second annual sale of the association, the initial sale at Liberty last year, proving a great success. Thirty head of good ones will be put through the sale ring on the 19th. 22 of them females. The offering repre sents the Broadhooks, Claret, Semptress. Campbell, Mina, Lancaster, Vil lage Maid and other well known families. Catalogs have been liberally distributed in this section. A gentleman who has actually been known to have enjoyed honey all winter, without having to buy it, tells us that: "If a ten frame colony doesn't weigh at least 75 pounds this fall, there's not enough honey to last the bees all winter. Two and a quarter pounds of granulated sugar to a pint of water makes a good winter food for bees." As Deserving of Praise. Says W. A. Lloyd in "A History of Ohio Agriculture": "The man who improves the livestock of a community, or gives it a better variety of corn, is as deserving of praise as he who 'plucks glory from the cannon's mouth'." Liberal With Grain Growers As an evidence that the farmers are disposed to support the plans and methods of the Grain Growers, consld er the loans made to them by the various state farm bureaus. A financial statement, dated Oct. 10, and Issued by the Illinois Agricultural association lists among us assets a loan of $25,000 to the U- S. Grain Growers, Inc. It is only fair to suppose that all our agricultural states have chipped in to help teh cause. We recall learning some months ago that Indiana had made a similar loan of $10,000, and was afterward told that our informant understood that this had been increased to $20,000. We do not recall seeing any information to this effect, direct from the state farm bureau offices, but our informant is in state farm bureau work and supposedly had the facts. But in any event the amount is not large, considering Indiana's large membership and the income at state headquarters, at a per capita of $2 annually." As John Cloverseed wisely remarked: "We can't expect the Grain Growers to make bricks without straw." Tractor Days Draw Crowds Three tractor demonstrations, hld during the late summer in three Ohio counties, attracted audiences of 12,500. At the Ottawa demonstration September 10, fifteen types of tractors plowed 46 acres with 5,000 people looking on. In Paulding county on September 15, fourteen types of tractors plowed 42 acres in the presence of 1,500 people, . v Drying Seed Corn. And how the agricultural college experts tell us that the old "sling" system of stringing up seed corn, so that the ears, can not touch in drying, is the best. To avoid corn root rot tendency in the seed is the point aimed at. An Ohio authority says: "Fall-selected seed corn, strung so ear will not touch ear, is now definitely known to' bring a crop les subject to corn root rot Drying seed corn thus stored with artificial heat, or at least storing it where it will dry out thoroughly before real winter weather, adds to the assurance against. root rot next year. "The root rot is a hard trouble to identify. The disease may be latent in ears that look quite all right, and spread from ear to ear by contact in the corn crib." Fight on Corn Borer.

in dispatches from Washington. A Washington correspondent writes: Continuance of the government's fight against the European Corn borer along the present lines was unanimously favored by representatives of important agricultural associations and state commissioners of agriculture and entomologists at the hearing held by the federal horticultural board. Decided opposition was ex pressed to the proposal to abandon the quarantine of infected areas and to wage the campaign on a regions! basis. The board was in substantial agree ment on the plan to continue the quar antine along the present lines, the quarantine to be extended to include the new areas of infestation and decided to recommend such action to Secretary Wallace together with the recommendation that congress be ask ed for funds adequate to administer such quarantine. Great Interest Manifest Among the organizations represent ed at the hearing were: The American Farm bureau, the State Grange of Connecticut, the Grain Dealers' associa tion, the National Canners association, the Boston Market Gardeners' associa tion, and the Northeastern Seedmen's association. Commissioners of agri culture of Massachusetts, Connecticut and Maine were also present, and in addition official and other representa fives from the states of Connecticut, Indiana, Maine, Maryland, Massachu setts, Michigan, Mississippi, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

Corn husking, now general throughout In diana, shows five per cent of the crop damaged by the "ear worm," and fall planting of wheat and rye is practically complete, according to the weekly report issued today by George C. Bry ant, Indiana statistician -for the United States department of agriculture. The report follows: "Conditions were exceptionally favorable for all outdoors farm work dur ing the last week, although several heavy frosts occurred. "Corn is curing out in splendid shape and husking is becoming general over the state. Approximately five per cent damage has been done by ear worm and there is considerable mould. "Wheat seeding Is practically completed although some is still being sown in the southern counties The plants that are up ere looking good, but Hessian fly has been reported in the early sown. "Rye seeding will be completed during the next few days. Acreage will be increased very materially in nearly all sections of the state. Potato Yield Small. "The yield of white potatoes are quite variable but generally small. The quality, however, is very good. "The tobacco crop turned out much better than expected and is of fairly good quality. Some house burning has been reported, but is not general. "Pastures continue to furnish an exceptional amount of feed. Meadows and young clover are in splendid con dition to go into the winter. "The commercial apple crop is very small and most of it as being stored for future sales. "Hog cholera is abating to some extent, but the loss has been very heavy. Other stock is in good condition generally. "Farm labor is plentiful but is asking high wages." ACHES AND PAINSSLOAN'S GETS 'EM ! AVOID the misery of racking pain .

TESTS FOR TRACTORS WINCHESTER. Ind., Oct. 17. A tractor demonstration is planned for Wednesday for Randolph county, having been arranged with the co-operation of the county agent. From eight to 10 tractors are expected to be en tered, most of these having already signed up. The demonstration will be an all-day affair, held one-half mile west of the city. Several unusual features have been provided for thi3 demonstration. A soil expert will be present from PurEveryday Ad-Ventures Ellis was one of those people with houses to sell. He was just waiting for someone wearing a fountain pen and a check book, to come around and relieve him of his property. But all the people he tried to interest in his house seemed to get writer's cramp when they 6hould have been signing on the dotted line of the deed of sale. After this had happened several times, Ellis began to get discouraged. He used to stand out in front of his house and think what a fine place it was. Then he would think of what a "fine" chance he had of se'ling it, and sun would stop shining. But after a while Ellis finally stumbled on an idea that occurs to most men as soon as they decide to put a property up for sale And Then He Called 2834-2872! And a few days later, he was figuring out how much $6,000 minus $2.10 the cost of his ads in the Palladium's Real Estate columns left his as the net proceeds from the sale of his house.
