RESPONSIBILITY IS REALIZED BY PREBLE COUNTY FARM BUREAU (Special to the Palladium) EATON, Ohio, Feb. 9. "Organization brings responsibility, obligations and power, for evil as veil as for good." declared the assembled Preble county farm bureau In a resolution adopted by unanimous vote in the meeting at the Armory during the afternoon. Support of efforts of the farm butau to reduce the spread between the price paid by the consumer, and that received by the farmer, also was pledged. The first resolution, was adopted as a platform for the guidance of activities of the bureau. After the statement quoted above, it continues, "Organization brings responsibility for things not done as well as for things done, and obligation to deal fairly and justly with our fellow man as we woud have him deal fairly and justly with us, obligation to do, as far as may be, the right thing at the right time in the right way. On this platform of principles and conduct we take our stand." Other Action Taktn.

Other action taken by the bureau advocated passage of the truth-in-fab-ric bill compelling manufacturers to label cloth with the materials used in it, commended the co-operative grain marketing plans, called for more efficient and economical administration of government and requested the farmers' organization to work out a definite road policy which could be followed by .state, county and local authorities in co-operation with farm bureau officials. Resolutions were presented by Edwin Morrow, chairman of the committee of which C. C. Lane and Albert Penrod were also members. A committee appointed to investigate the operation of co-operative live stock shipping in . Darke county reported, through Clem Cohee, general satisfaction in the neighboring communities and an offer by the Darke county shipping manager of his services in shipping co-operatively from the north end of Preble-if there is any demand for it. Report on Fertilizer. The committee for investigation of

fertilizer purchasing reported plans i

of the Commercial Service company, the farmers' co-operative purchasing agency, which promise very favorable prices on fertilizer this spring. It was the sentiment of the board of directors in consultation afterward, that a formal contract with a small advance payment of several dollars a ton, should be signed by every fer

tilizer purchaser, when orders are taken. j Farmers have not had cost of production for their outpot for the last 20 years, declared L. M. Pierson, organizer for a co-operative milk marketing association, speaking in the afternoon. A recent survey, he said, showed that as a result of this condition, in 14 states large numbers of farmers' wives are going out into the fields and working beside their hus

bands besides doing their house-work. "We must have homes, schools and churches," declared the speaker, "if our civilization is to continue, and we must have a fair living to enjoy these. More than this we do not ask." There are 14.547 dairy cows in the county, said Mr. Pierson, with an annual production of $630,000. If bet

ter marketing can add only 10 per cent to this sum, the county will be richer

by $63,000. All great leaders in every crisis that history records have come from the country, said Rupert Beetham, speaker of the house of representatives of the state assembly, who aso spoke during the afternoon. He cited Moses, David. Cincinnatus, Cromwell,

and George Washington as examples

POULTRY INTERESTS FARMERS OF CLAY (Specila to the Palladium) GREEN'S FORK, Ind., Feb. 9. A

reading "Common Sense," by Mrs. Newton Brooks, a piano solo by Forrest Bond, and a folk song, with piano accompaniment, by Miss Iva Nicholson, introduced an unusual but welcome touch to the Clay township farmers' association meeting held in the school building Wednesday night. Poultry men and women in the audience were especially interested in the future of the poultry industry as

forecast by Fred Porterfield of Richmond, who was the speaker of the evening. "This industry has had a growth greater than any other I know of," he said. "There has been an in

crease of 70,000,000 in the poultry of the country in the last 10 years, and where 10 years there were only a few hens of more than 200-egg production a year, there are 33 now who produce over 300 eggs." The speaker was detained half an hour after the meeting to answer questions put by his listeners. J. L. Dolan of Richmond, also pointed out that there is no prospect for a poultry supply in this country that will equal home consumption for sev-

I eral years to come.

I think you should try to get another maid immediately" Then you laughed nt him and, said you'd show him who was the real worker around that house, but just the same you've been saying

What it Costs to Produce 100 Pounds of Milk

The cost of producing milk isn't so hard to get at, when you come right down to it. During 1920, 12 New Hampshire dairymen kept records on 196 cows, in cooperation with farm management specialists, and from the records we learn that each one of the cows, in making 100 pounds of milk, ate 27.6 pounds

of grain, 67.3 pounds of silage, and 76 pounds of hay. The labor of the dairyman for each 100 pounds of milk was 2.54 hours. These costs were 82.8 per cent of the total costs. Based on these amounts of feed and labor, the average cost of producing milk was $3.87 a hundred pounds. Any man who weighs the feed and milk can easily find what it costs to produce milk on his own farm. The man who doesn't weigh feed and milk probably isn't much concerned about the cost, and is the one who shouts the loudest about getting cost of production.

Pointers for the Back-Yard Poultryman

Color Mixture in Corn Not Advisable

Adequate ventilation helps to keep the house free from moisture.

Experience has shon that it is usually the hest practice to feed corn to animals and thus market the corn as meat. This system keepg most of the fertility at home where it can be used in the production of other crops. However, if the corn is sold outright and not in the form of meat, it is important that the product be such that the best market prices can be chained for it. Under pres

ent requirements for corn, a mix-

Any poultry house should be so constructed that it may be easily cleaned and disinfected. Most common poultry diseases are highly contagious. Mites breed rapidly, and in houses which are hard to clean are extremely hard to eradicate.

price. This should be taken into consideration in planning for the 192 crop. Corn of colors other than white and yellow are very prominent in shelled corn, and their qualities and characteristics should be weighed very carefully before it is decided to purchase seed of such varities.

Soybeans and Cowpeas How they are grown Soybeans, a valuable soil-build

ing crop, are being grown morel widely than ever before in Missouri, j Crop reporters in that state say! that fifty-five per cent of the acreage is planted with corn, while forty-five per cent is planted alone. Of cow-peas, sixty-two per cent of the acreage was planted with corn. In using the soybean crop 36 per cent is cut for hay, 20 per cent threshed for seed, 38 per cent hogged off and six per cent turned under for fertilizer. In using cowpeas, 53 per cent is cut for hay, 19 per cent for seed, 21 per cent hogged off and seven per cent plowed under. The acreage of soybeans was increased 13 per cent in 1921 over

1920, while cowpeas showed but two per cent increase. Yield per acre for soybeans was 1.25 tons of hay per acre, and of cowpeas, 1.5 tons. The seed yield per acre when the crops were grown alone was fourteen bushels of soybeans and ten of cowpeas; where the crops were grown with others, eight bushels of soybeans and six of cowpeas. Twenty or 30 minutes of drying is usually enough to make Bordeaux stick to the trees, even in the rainiest weather. Don't let the prospect of rain delay spraying. Only actual rain should stop it.

Sunlight is a good germicide, helps to keep the house dry and warm, and therefore helps to ap

proximate spring conditions. Provision should be made so that the sunlight will strike all parts of the floor of the house at the same time during the day. All feed and litter should be strictly sweet, clean and free from mustiness, mold or decay. Serious losses , frequently occur from decayed or moldy feed or litter, due to the spores which may develop

into fungous molds in the lungs or

intestines of the fowls.

Hens to be marketed are those that have a decidedly crooked breast-bone, scaly legs or long toenails, or are "broken down" behind, or have abdomens that are fat and hard.

Milk Instead of Booze

We are told by quite a few city milk drivers that the sale of milk has increased, particularly among day laborers working on buildings and streets, since the prohibition law was passed. J. L. Graff writes

The damp, cold house saps the vitality of the fowls, lowers produc-. tion and aid3 the spread of disease. The hen can eliminate moisture from the body only through the respiratory organs.- A damp, cold atmosphere causes the fowl to be uncomfortable, breathe rapidly, pant, and finally to become completely exhausted. . Fowls weakened or in an, exhausted condition are easily susceptible to disease. .
