DISCOUNT RATE CUT BY BANK OF ENGLAND (By Associated Press) LONDON, Nov. 3 The Bank of England reduced its rate of discount to five per cent from five and one half per cent this morning. The last reduction in the discount rate was made on July 21, last, when it was cut from six per cent to five and one-half per cent. Reduction of the rate of discount by the Bank of England follows an announcement by the United States federal reserve board yesterday that the discount rate of federal reserve banks in eight districts bad been cut. Fluctuations of the rate established by the bank of England have been of 6rt?al mieresi m me uunea ow. ! !? indications of the financial situaI lion in LiOnaoD. i an reaucuuu ui lue discount rate on June 23 to six per cent from six and one-halt per cent was expected as all indications were the six and one-half per cent rate would be maintained for some time. When the World war broke out in August 1914 the rate was advanced to 10 per cent, the highest in the history of the bank of England that point having been touched upon only two occasions during the panics of 1857 and 1866. After a few days, however, it was reduced to six per cent and later to five per cent. It remained at that point until the middle of 1916 when it was advanced to six per cent but it was lowered to five per cent in April 1917. On Nov. 6, 1919, it went up to six per cent where it remained until April 15, 1920, when it was advanced again to seven per cent. On April 2S. last, there was a reduction to six and one-half per cent. Funeral Arrangements MRS. SUVANEA TURNER Mrs. Suvanea Turner, 80 years old, died at her home in Portland. Indiana, Wednesday.

GOOD PRICES AT SALE
BY PARSHALL-CROWE A large, sociable, and good-natured gathering of farm folks attended the Parshall-Crowe sale, on Wednesday. The day was ideal for driving and outdoor happenings, and the wet corn fields from Tuesday's storm gave farmers excuse to forget 6hucking till a more convenient season. The offering was not overly large, Two good Shorthorn milch cows and a nice yearling heifer brought good prices. Four farm horses, 25 head of Poland China hogs, and 25 Shropshire sheep, completed the livestock on sale. Among the stock buyers were: John Trouse, who paid $149 for a good farm horse; Frank Long who gave $95 for a fine Shorthorn cow, and Ben Parshall yho paid $81 for one of the milkers. Ben Lashley bid the yearling heifer up to $46. Sheep Brings Fair Figures The 25 head of grade Shropshire sheep in the sale tempted two men to pay from $7 to $7.70 for the bunch of ewes, while W. F. Parks got the buck for $10. Montgomery paid $7.70 for a pen of 12 ewes. John Orr got a like number at $7 each. Six brood sows and 18 fall pigs did not last long. C. Crowe took all the brood sows at $26 and Lewis Enslie captured all the fall pigs at $6 apiece. Jesse Plankenhorn took the registered Poland China male at $45. No grain, hay or corn in the field ".. . iUV 1 cording to use and value and the sell-! r, fP.nA HTU n-m nn1n n .v ers considered the prices satisfactory. Sale Nets Around $1,600 H. J.

TO STAGE MULTIPLE HITCH PLOWING SHOW (Specil to the Plladium) LIBERTY, Ind., Nov. 3. Arrangements have been made for a multiplehitch plowing demonstration to be held near here Saturday by Harold L. Beall, of Clarksburg, with County Agent Foster Campbell in charge. The demonstration will be staged for the purpose of showing to local farmers the value of the multiple hitch, which provides for placing one team in front of another, even up to eight horses. By this method much more power is obtained than by hitching four abreast, as the side draft of a plow is eliminated and all the energy a horse expends goes to turning the soil. "The problem of many farms is not to get more power, but increase the efficiency of the power we alreadv have," said Mr. Campbell. "The hitching demonstration which has been arranged shows one way of doing this." Farmers from Union and surrounding counties, including some from Ohio, are expected to attend. Beall will use some of the animal3 from the Percheron farm at Clarksburg. Thieves Loot Hardware Store at Camden, Ohio CAMDEN, O., Nov. 3. The hardware store of R. R.

The Farm and The Farmer By William R. Sanborn
For the first time in many weeks the price of wheat in Richmond was marked down, on Wednesday. The Richmond Roller Mills cut the price on No. 2 red to $1.10, a reduction of five cents per bushel. The Perry Hartley farm sale on the Baird farm at the cement bridge on the Middleboro pike, on Tuesday, drew quite a large crowd, despite an all-day rain storm. To hit on such an unfavorable day ranks as a misfortune, many instances, a cold, rainy day being most depressing to outdoor crowds. Mr. Hartley sold a few good cows at .from $50 to $70. In this connection it may be noted that good milch cows, the kind that dairymen most desire, have been advancing in price of late because of a constantly increasing demand. This is further proven by the prices recently paid at pure-bred dairy cattle sales. At the Edward Parshall and George Crowe sale on the Smithfield-Abington road, on Wednesday, Frank Long paid $95 for a red cow Ben Parshall selected one of the same color at a cost of $81, and Ben Lashley got a dandy heifer for $46. A Boy Makes Chickens Pay Howard Young, a 17-year-old high school boy, lives on a farm near Everett, Ohio. His experience with chickens will be found encouraging to our farm folks. Until he enrolled for club work in 1920 he had, he says, no particular interest in farming. That year he hatched out 258 chicks and raised 228 of them. From these he selected 100 for his laying pens and kept records on them over the winter. The records show that he made $296 above feed costs on these 100 White Leghorns from November to April ,, . " - k. r Z,l He was champion of his county in 1920. Last year he fixed up the old henhouse as best he could, installing electrical illumination to stimulate winter egg production, and adding to the flock 100 birds of high-production strain. I In all, he hatched 1150 chicks and ra,-Dri con ui0 raonr-Aa tn tv,a ' , . , . , . . A. j have yet t0 be compiled, but those who ave followed the work believe he will clear at least $1,000. Some Very Ancient Corn , The discovery of an ear of corn, which it is proved was grown at least 91 years ago. is of but little historic interest, nor has this ear of corn any intrinsic value. But sufficient interest attaches because of the venerable agt of the ear, also as showing the wonderful keeping qualities of this specimen of the corn of our grandfather's days. The editor of the Farm Journal, Philadelphia, relates that, beginning with William Dewalt, of Ohio, who lays claim to owning corn 21 years old, he has a long list of owners of corn ranging up to the man who has the 91-year-old specimen. Indeed, he prints a list of 16 such men in his j November number, in addition to anMichigan, who have corn 66 years old. C. O. Wheeler, of Horseheads, N. Y., reports that three ears were found "between the siding and plastered wall of an old house which was torn down. On investigation at that time it was found that these ears must have 1 dropped from braids of seed corn j whicn had been hung on nails in the Farm Sale Calendar Monday, November 7.

Twelve-Row Yellow Flint If this corn was saved for seed, as is probable, the fact that these ears were but eight inches long and had but 12 rows, shows something regarding the evolution of corn. "The kernels are of a much smaller size than our present-day corn. The variety was known as the twelve-row yellow flint, and the grains are now as hard as ivory." Club Champions to Get Medals There are more than 600 boy and girl club champions in Ohio, and they have all been invited to meet at the Ohio university on Monday, November 14, for a week in conference. It will be an interesting and instructive week to the club youngsters. On Friday afternoon championship medals will be awarded. A Good Time to Buy. "This is a good year for the farmers to buy afld likewise a good time for breeders to sell to farmers," says the Chester White Journal. Breeders do not need to secure such high prices for their stock this year as they have received in the past two or three years, as the cost of production has been greatly reduced. They can, therefore, afford to solicit the farmers business and to furnish to them some of their best animals at prices that farmers can afford to pay. 'The demand for breeding-hogs this season among farmers will probably be very brisk, as there is a marked scarcity of hogs throughout the coun try and feed is very plentiful." Still Has Wide Field. There can be no doubt that feed Is very plentiful, and also cheap. As to there being a scarcity of hogs that is partly true now and will be still truer before long, if the heavy shipments keep up. But one thing is certain: The percent of pure-bred hogs in this country is relatively small. The breeder ha3 a wide field in which to sell. If he markets at prices farmers can afford to pay in these days of depression he can find an outlet for every porker he has to sell, either at auction or through private sale. Breeders Use Sign Boards. "If it pays a manufacturer to display his name and wares on a big sign board, why wouldn't it pay live stock breeders to follow a similar idea in advertising their live stock? Thus reasoned the Gage County Live Stock Breeders of Nebraska. For a starter they planned a county-wide advertising campaign. They placed seven sign I boards on the main thoroughfares, wnere iney couia De seen and read by the travelers through the county. "The boards are painted with a black background, with the lettering in white. They measure 7x10 feet and are easily read." Thus writes L. B. Rist, one of the Nebraska breeders, who says that the results have been very satisfactory as to increased sales of cattle and hogs.
