College Students Elope Then Suffer "Cold Feet" GREENFIELD, Ind.. Oct 25. An elopement of two Purdue boys and two DePauw university girls, ended in a fizzle when romance paled after a night for consideration, although the marriage licenses had already been secured. The two couples motored to Greenfield from the colleges, wakened the county clerk at 11 o'clock Saturday night to get the licenses, and then were unable to find the mayor to pronounce the ceremony. The young folks .stayed with friends from their respective colleges overnight and by morning had changed their minds. Licenses were cancelled and the students returned to school.

CO-OP LIVE STOCK SALES For the week ending Saturday, Oct 14 the various Producers' Live Stock

Sales associations reported the follow

ing number of cars handled: Chicago association, 129 cars; St Louis association. 148 cars;-Indianapolis association, 138 cars; Peoria association, 17 cars, or a grand total of 432 cars of the four associations, doing business under the plan of the committee of 15. The total salaried list of the four co-operative offices consists of 124 persons, among which are managers, salesmen, yardmen, bookkeepers, correspondence clerks, stenographers and proraters. No director of these con' cerns is on the payroll at any office. At Chicago the sales association stood ninth in the amount of live stock handled; at St Louis it ranked sec

ond, while at Indianapolis the Producers led all other firms in the number of cars and truck loads sent over the scales. 1

The Producers went into acti&n atii

East Buffalo, New York, on Monday. East Buffalo is .only a farmer's market in a modest way, but is a fairly large shippers or speculative buyers market It is not expected that the business done at Buffalo will at all compare with that done at western points. Still, the business may grow to be larger than now anticipated, as the of

fice has the endorsement of the Ohio,

Michigan and Indiana farm bureaus, and some live stock will no doubt be

consigned' from each state, right at

the start. Much will depend on the

prices realized compared with those

paid to shippers at markets nearer

nome, ana compared witn freignt

costs. Minnesota Grain Growers, Inc. "The U. S. Grain Growers' Sales company of Minnesota, of which mention was recently made in this column, has been sending out letters to signers of the U. S. G. G. contract In which it states that the opening of this sales agency "marks the consummation of weeks of effort on the part of the

rarm bureau leaders. There are no

ifs and ands about this undertaking. The doors are open. We are ready for business. Just as quickly as possible farmers who have TJ. S. Grain Growers' contracts will be officially notified that they are In effect Success of our efforts will depend, to a

large degree, on the loyalty of the farmers." The new concern is in position to make direct sales to millers and exporters, and Is entirely nonspeculative. When Russia Competes Samuel Adams, president of the American Agricultural Editors' association, has come to the conclusion that Russian competition in the wheat markets of the world is much nearer than is generally supposed. Mr. Adams says that while many authorities are claiming that it will take from seven to ten years for Russia to produce an export surplus of grain, it is his opinion that Russia is fast getting into shape to again become a grain exporting country, and that, from present indications that time is not far away, say from two to four years. He says Russia will soon become a figure in agricultural production and concludes by asking: "Then.to what depth will our grain prices fall? Who knows?" Mr. Adams has just returned from four months in Europe, in which time he hastilly visited 10 different coun

tries. Just how many days he spent in Russia is not stated, but surely four

months are too few to dig up all the

interesting economic facts in relation

to land tenures, agricultural production, etc., jn 10 countries. Right at this 'time Soviet Russia admits that outsiders must feed at least 4,000,000 people this winter, as that government lacks the grain or the money to import it in sufficient quantity. Has Had Plenty of Coal. If the farmers around New Paris are unable to keep Jack Frost from their firesides. It would seem to be no fault of the two elevators in that town. Both concerns have been active in their efforts to provide coal and have met with fair success. Joseph V. Williams, manager of the Farmers' elevator at New Paris, dropped in on the writer on Tuesday afternoon and said he had been able to get delivery on 10 or 12 cars of coal so far this fall, and that it was moving into 'consumption at a lively rate. He said that he had handled mostly Main Island and Hocking Valley coals thus far, witk an occasional car of some other grade. Just now, he said Main Island is bringing $10.50 and Hocking Valley $10, at the bin. Mm Williams says that a little wheat is dribbling in, almost dally, four loads arriving on Monday and two on Tuesday. His price on Tuesday was $1.11 in the morning and $1.10 in the afternoon, owing to lower prices at central markets during the Tuesday session. Of Interest to Women. Mrs. Ruby Green Smith, leader of home demonstration work in New York state, discussed women's part in rural community, development at the Columbus, Ohio, conference. In that impressive address she sounded what many county agents consider to have been the conference keynote. Stressing feminine idealism and a sense of "community housekeeping" which the farm woman brings to local programs for farm, home, and community betterment, Mrs. Smith closed with a portion of her widely-quoted "creed" for women members of the farm bureau:

K "To maintain the highest ideals of

nome me; to count children the. most important of crops; to so mother them that their bodies may be sound, their minds clear, their spirits happy, and their characters generous. "To place service above comfort; to let loyalty to high purposes silence discordant notes; to let neigh borliness supplant hatreds; to be discouraged never." Storing Potatoes. The question of how best to store potatoes over the winter is now up for solution. More potatoes were grown m the Richmond district last summer than In many previous years, and this seems to apply generally, the crop being exceptionally large, the country over. Taking note of this fact Purdue has issued a letter to the rural press in which it says: "The old-fashioned dirt pit is the best place to store seed do-

tatoes, as well as those to be used during the winter. This will out class '

tne cellar because the seed will be kept cooler, and will not sprout with the first warm weather of spring. Potatoes held last winter in pits, ia

spite of warm weather, when opened the last of April were just as crisp as when, placed in storage. In one pit on William Schrieber's farm near Hammond, more than 100 buslrels werj taken out and not one sprouted, shriveled or spoiled. These potatoes hai not lost their vitality and consequently produced a good stand. "The pit should be in a well drained place. Four to six inches of dirt should be excavated, and a thin layer of straw scattered over the ground. The potatoes are then piled up in a pointed pile. It is preferable to place a ventilator of some sort down through

the center of the potato pile. Over the tubers a six inch layer of straw is spread and then a six inch layer of dirt By alternating layers of straw and dirt as winter approaches the potatoes will go through the coldest weather without freezing . "After the outer layers have frozen it is well to spread a layer of fresh manure over the outside of the pit This will aid- further in protecting the potatoes and serves to keep the outer layer of dirt frozen longer in the spring and consequently the potatoes cooler." f Experts tell us that corn makes but little growth at less than 55 degrees. In northern Wisconsin, however, where the springs are unusually cold and backward, they would like to find a corn which will grow at lower temperatures than ordinary corn, because they need considerable corn for silage. Mr. Leith, of the Wisconsin university, has been workine on this nrrvhim tnr-

a number of years, and ,the method

Michigan's Milk Output The production of milk in Michigan last year, according to a report to the department of agriculture, was little more than 3,000,000,000 pounds, most of which was used in the manufacture of various dairy products. Practically

1,700,000,000 pounds were used In making butter, two-thirds of it In creameries and the remainder on farms. More than 90,000,000 pounds were used in the manufacture of American, brick, cream, cottage, and farm cheese. Condensed, evaporated, and powdered milk required 269,000,000 pounds, and ice cream took in excess of 127,000,000 pounds. About 850,000,000 pounds were consumed directly as whole milk, and 160,000,000 were fed to calves or lost on farms and in factories. With this large production of milk and dairy products, Michigan stands sixth in products of the cow.

Carl Nordquist reports he has been getting strains of music from a stovepipe The chimney is arranged so a stove can be set up in two different rooms. There is a tin over the hole in one room. Mr. Nordquist, upon hearing the music, removed the tin. The music ceased and started up again when the tin was replaced.
