OHIO FARM BUREAU LEADS MOVEMENT TO
KEP BLUE SKY SALESMEN OUT OF STATE
THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, RICHMOND, IND., MONDAY, SEPT. 11, 1922.
j (By Associated Press) COLUMBUS, Ohio, Sept 11 Sixteen counties In the state now have organized service bureaus for protection against blue sky salesmen and fraudulent promoters, according to a statement today by the investigation department of the Ohio Farm Bureau federation. It is expected that an affiliation of a state-wide nature will be accomplished Oct. 1 on shortly thereafter. . The organizations set are formed with the co-operation of farm bureaus, granges, chambers of commerce, and civic organizations, banks and building and loan associations. The proposed state organization will 'be in a stronger position than any individual county to furnish reports on the value of various securities, it is pointed out First shipments of Grimes Golden apples went forward to .market from the co-operative growers' associations in southern Ohio last week. C. W. Waid, fruit marketing specialist of the Ohio Farm Bureau federation, has been on the ground for some time attending to details and grading and sales work.
The fruit is going to market under the Buckeye brand name, selected by
the Ohio Co-operative Fruit Growers' association. It is sold on grade with the quality guaranteed uniform.
B. B. Mason, of Columbus, auditor
of the Ohio Farm Bureau federation, spent last week in Chicago and Indianapolis investigating auditing and accounting methods of the farmerowned co-operative commission firms at those points. The information obtained will be used in establishing systems at the similar firms which will be set up at Buffalo, Cleveland, Pittsburg and Cincinnati, and patronized by Ohio live stock producers.
That the value of manure i3 mate
rially increased by reinforcing with
acid phosphate has been proved conclusively by experiments at the Ohio
Experiment station, Wooster, accord
ing to an announcement there. Results show that one ton of acid phosphate, used to reinforce manure at the rate of 40 pounds a ton of manure, has returned more than $200 worth of crops, based on current prices, more than the manure alone, as a 21-year average. It is pointed out that manure contains considerable quantities of nitrogen and potassium but it- is low in phosphorus. Forty pounds of, acid phosphate mixed with each ton of manure helps to prevent the loss of amonia, and at the same time, saves the full value of the nitrogen and potash contained by balancing the ration for the plant. It was found that one pound of acid phosphate per 1000 pounds live weight
of animals, spread over the manure daily In the stalls or pens, wilt give the right proportion, and the best results. "With the establishment of a new plant for the extraction of soybean oil in Indiana, there is opened up a new market for the soybean crop of the country," says J. S. Cutler, of the department of farm crops, Ohio State University department of agriculture. The new plant will have a capactiy of nearly 1000 bushels of beans a day, and will use what is known as the Benzol process of extraction, in which the benzol is mixed with steam and the beans treated undeT pressure.
.When properly extracted, a bushel of
soybeans will yield about one gallon
of oil, which Is used in the manufacture of butter and ljird substitutes, and about. 45 pounds of soybean cake or
meal, used as a stock feed.
The length of time a hen is broody
depends chiefly on the breed and feed
during the broody period, according to E. L. Dakan, professor of poultry hus
bandry at Ohio State University.
At the Vineland egg-laying contest he said. It was shown, that 75 per cent
of the Rhode Island Reds developed
broodiness; 70 per cent of the Wyandottes; 66 per cent of the Plymouth Rocks, and about 11 per cent of Leg
horns. Plenty of water and green food is
essential to a broody hen, Dakan de
clared.
The poultry certification project of
Ohio State university is making rapid
strides in the state, according to Da
kan. Nearly 100 flocks have been
entered for this year.
The object of the project is to as
sist in improving the laying capacity of farm poultry flocks in Ohio through the distribution of eggs and breeding stock from high laying strains. The extension department will furnish the cooperator (owner of a certified flock) with printed literature and other information published by the university, and in addition, the active personal assistance of the extension specialists, who will visit farms, select the breeding stock, and advise the cooperator as to the best methods of feeding, management and the like for high egg production. In. return for these services, the cooperator signs a contract that he will purchase his breeding males from 200 egg strains, maintain a special breeding pen for further flock improvement and keep a record of sales of certified eggs, chicks, cockerels, or hens, reporting monthly to the county agent. All work is carried on through the county agent and a fee of $5 is required to be paid to the farm bureau for each flock containing fitm 25 to

JEALOUSY OF AUGUSTUS
ADDED DAY TO AUGUST
(From Lie Petit Parisien, Paris) ' Why have July and August thirtyone days apiece, while poor o"d February has only twenty-eight or, at the most, twenty-nine? The vanity and jealousy of mper ors explains this peculiarity. In the Julian calendar February used to have twenty-nine days for the common years and thirty for leap years. The other months alternated regularly, one
with thirty, the next with thirty-one days. Now Caesar's first name, Julius, has been given to the seventh
month, and when the Emperor Augus
tus decided to have a month .f his own he made up his mind that certainly it should have no fewer days than July, which was Caesar's. Consequently, they cut another day off February in order to give Augustus his thirty-one and then rearranged the
fequence of strong and weak months after August; otherwise there would have been three successive months July, August and September each with thirty-one days. This is the explanation given by an Italian review, without documentary evidence.
