FARMERS OF WEBSTER TOLD OF DISCOVERY OF FEEDING MIXTURE

WEBSTER, Ind., Not. 10. Explanation of a new discovery of the Purdue experiment station, "which if it had been made in the industrial instead of the agricultural world, would have made a fortune for its discoverer, was given to the fanners of Webster township at a meeting Thursday night, by Prof. J. R. Wiley, of Purdue. The discovery refers to a method of feeding hogs which does away with the expensive tankage feed formerly fed in connection with corn. For years soy beans have been tried as a substitute, but without giving the gains that may be obtained with tankage. Experiments this year proved that addition of a mineral mixture with the Boy beans would but ply the missing ingredient that would make the beans equal to tankage. "This mineral mixture," said Prof. Wiley, "costing only one or two cents

a pound, will make sowbeans at $1.50 or less, equal in feeding value to 60

per cent tankage, at $70 a ton. Fur

thermore, the beans can be produced

In quantity on any farm, whereas the

tankage is only available by purchase

and Is limited in quantity." Advantage of Mixture.

By use of the mixture, a bushel of beans and 10 pounds of the mixture will produce 100 pounds of pork, while 39 pounds .of tankage are required with seven busbelc of corn to make the same gain. On clover pasture;

303 pounds of corn. 25 pounds of

beans and eight pounds of the mix-

lure will give the same gains as 352

pounds of corn and 27 pounds , of

tankage.

The mixture, as the speaker explained, is simply 10 pounds of. wood ashes, 10 pounds of ordinary acid phosphate, taken from any fertilizer sack, and one pound of common salt.

Finely ground limestone may be suu : Btituted for the ashes.

Another feature of Prof, Wiley's talk was a strong appeal for raising

of larger Utters. With more pigs far

rowed in a litter and a large number raised to market age, the cost per

pig will be greatly lessened, he show

ed- and thus a greater prom, reaut. Figuring in all feed used for sow and pigs from breeding time till. weaning, litters of more than seven pigs were raised on 38 pounds of feed per pig at a cost of ?l-38; while litters of si took 182 pounds apiece at a cost or $1.81, and Bmall litters averaging four pigs, required 277 pounds per pig coating $2.78. , , How to Save Pigs rarpfnl feedine of the sow before

farrowing, use of a balanced ration of corn and soy beans or corn, oats and barley, with a handful of tankage once a day for at least a month before farrowing, clean, dry warm farrowing quarters, and care of the pigs, keeping them warm dry and clean for the first month especially, will mean a larger proportion of pigs saved. Brood sows selected from prolific stock will farrow larger litters. Dv careful observance of all requirements, one man in the ton litter content last year succeeded in raising 113 pigs from 14 sows, said the speaker, with three litters near the ton mark, one only 10 pounds under a ton, and ore weighing 3,000 pounds at six months. A business meeting of the fanners association decided before Prof. Wiley's talk, to send a township representatlve to the state farm bureau convention at Indianapolis. Charles Wea-

dick was chosen as delegate ana wulinm Wilcoxen as alternate. Expenses ' of the delegate will be paid by the township association. Announcement of the annual entertainment and social meeting of the association for the second Thursday in December, was made by the chairman. Mrs. Walter Beeson Is chairman of the committee for that meeting. County A.gent Dolan also called attention to the national farm bureau convention at Chicago, the same week as the International Livestock Exposition.

JAKE BENTLEV8 WHEAT j The adventures of Jake Bentley in

getting rich at wheat raising is thus

interestingly told by Abe Martin, in

the November issue of Farm Life:

Here's somethin' that happened to

Jake Bentley that don't - speak very well fer agriculture.

He seeded leven acres t' wheat. He

paid twenty-eight dollars an' fifty cents

fer fertilizer, an twenty dollars an a quarter fer seed. He borrowed a drill an' broke it an' had t' have it fixed at a cost o' three dollars an' seventy-five cents. . Th' outtin cost leven dollars an' th' yield amounted t' a hundred an' thirty-two bushels. Th' thrashin' at eight cents a bushel cost ten dollars an fifty-six cents. Bindin' twine cost two dollars an' fifty-eight cents, an' a load o' Indianny run slate an' coal cost five dollars an'

forty cents. Haulin t market at a rough guess wuz three dollars an', fifty

cents. '

Jake made no charges fer chewin' t'baccer, or his or his wife' labor, or

his overhead, taxes, interest on mort

gage, depreciation, an' general repairs an upkeep, lncludin' a new chimney,

two new tires, an' a radio set.

So we find th' cost o' raisin' leven

acres o' wheat on this basis wuz eigh

ty-five dollars an fifty-four cents. Jake sold a hundred bushels at nine

ty-seven cents, keepin' thirty-two bushels fer bread an' seed, an' what h3 nally cleaned up out o' th' wreck wuz

even 'leven dollare an' fifty cents, or

one pair o shoes an a litle over.

But Jake is purty slick he kept out

enough wheat fer his bread. Neighborly Kindness. -

Mrs. William Trone, living on a farm

near West Manchester in Preble coun

ty, has all her corn in the crib,-and this through the thoughtful kindness

of a lot of her neighbors and friends

Her husband, as many of our readers

will remember, was killed by lightning one day last summer, leaving his wife and children dependent upon their own resources in the management of the farm and the care of the growing

crops. On Tuesday morning a number of farmers drove in on the Trone place and began husking corn. They seemed to be old hands at the Job and worked with a will, as the results that evening showed. On Thursday morning another group appeared on the scene, with a number of wagons and three or four men to each team, bent on making a clean-up, which they did. The 20acre field was husked in the two days by friends who came prepared for an

all-day job, and who brought their

lunches, which Mrs. Trone supplement

ed by furnishing plenty of hot coffee

and the trimmings. Have Wireless Outfit.

Mr. Dorsel, of the A. H. Doreel Milling company, of Liberty, came in to see us on Thursday afternoon and his report is that possibly 50 percent of the last crop of wheat down his way is still held on the farms. He said that

he has been able to get enough wheat to make a few shipments in the past month, also that he paid $1.15 for wheat on Thursday forenoon. A little new corn is moving , to market, he states, and at. this time he is buying

on the basis of 50 cents for 70 pounds

The Dorsel mill is now equipped with

a radio plant, the same having been installed during the past week. The wireless was put in to pick the float

ing market quotations from out the air in advance of their appearance in the newspapers. The November estimate of the corn crop came as a surprise to most of

the trade, as it sjiowed a gain of 43,-

uuo.w Dusneis over that given out in

October. The estimate now is for

a crop of 2,896,000,000, or about 100,000,000 in excess of recent private wire

house figures, on which the grain men have been banking. Nearly 34,000,000 bushels of the increase is accreditel to the southern states and localities outside of the corn belt area. The estimate for Indiana is for an average crop of 37 bushels and a total crop of 176,305,000 bushels. ' - . More' Credit for Farmers - Regardless of the pressure on congress at the coming session in the disposal of administration measures, notably the support of the government to an American merchant marine, it now seems certain that the farm bloe will insist on credit legislation for the

farmer. While it may not he possible to pass a farm credit bill before the adjournment of the present congress on March 4, the matter is sure to be widely discussed and the failure

to enact a measure will result in the extension of War Finance corporation for another year. But for this the corporation would go out of business at the end of next June. During the recess of congress considerable work has been done toward

perfecting a bill which will be satisfactory to the different groups.- A

special subcommittee of the senate

farm bloc has been making a study of the subject, with the assistance of experts. Various agricultural organ

izations also have been at work.

Eugene Meyer Jr.. managing direc

tor of the War Finance corporation, made recommendations on the subject to congress last spring, and is preparing to present additional suggestions at the coming session. Secretary of

Argiculture Wallace also has been studying the question.

-Valuable Hog Bulletin The farmer who is interested in hogs, as most of them are, will do well to send for Farmers' Bulletin No. 126S, issued by the department of agricnl-

ture. at Washington. The bulletin is

devoted to the various breeds of swine, and is edited by Prof. E. Z. Russell.

The pamphlet is well illustrated with

photographs of specimens of all the

leading breeds and of minor oneA

gives a brief history of the origin of

all the breeds now found in the United States, descriptions of their characteristics, and names of the record asso ciations, with names and addresses of the secretaries. The usual classification under lard and bacon types is given. The breeds included under the first are the DurocJersey, Poland China, Chester White, Berkshire, Hampshire and Spotted Poland China. The Tamworth and the Yorkshire are the only breeds of th? bacon type grown to any extent in this country and are the only ones included. The minor breeds given a place in the bulletin are the Mule-Foot, Large Black, Kentucky Red Berkshire, Cheshire, Essex and Victoria. The big-type animals, says the author, are found in all breeds, but are

more numerous in some breeds than in others. Owing to an increasing demand for cured hams and bacon of high quality, the type of hog becomes

a matter of much importance. Hams

weighing from. 12 to 16 pounds are more likely to cure with high quality and flavor than lighter or heavier pieces. Neither hams nor bacon should carry excessive quantities of fat, but should be "well marbled." The opportunity for producing meat of this char acter is greater in the quickly grown big-type hog than in the distinctly small-type. The most profitable hog 1 the one that can be grown to the required market weight in the shortest time. Well-bred and well-fed animals of the right type will make tha market weight in from 7 to 10 months. The best market weight is generally from 175 to 225 pounds. Copies of the bulletin may be obtain

ed free by addressing the department

at Washington, D. C.

FUNK AND HARTER SALE

Forty head of feeder cattle and 14 J

head of hogs went-under the hammer

at the Funk and Harter sale, on Thur

day afternoon. No exceptionally high

prices were realized but the total of

the sale was $3,200, and this sum the

sellers considered satisfactory. In

eluded In the sale were a number of

weanling pigs, the largest of which

were sold separately at prices accord'

lng to weight and in keeping with market conditions and the views of

buyers. The sale of a lot of red gilts

afforded a chance to get bargains in

Durocs, on which the prices ranged

at from $27 down to $20. Some of tho

young cattle brought a top of $45. Mr.

Funk said that in spite of the husking season the crowd was satisfactory and

the bidding lively enough to' make an

early cleanup. Hindman and Weddte

cried the sale.

trade provides the baia of the next economic and political development. Turning now to more immediate results of the election, one of the most conspicuous is the Increased strength and heightened morale of the farm bloc. One can truthfulls put .it this way: within the senate, the farm bloc

comes nearer to being a real poutlca. party than either Republicans or the Democrats. The farm bloc has solidaritary group spirit, leadership and organization, none of which is possessed by either the Republicans or the Democrats in the senate. Lock Door Too Late One of the early results of the election will be an effort by the Republicans to lock the door after the horse is gone by achieving the organization and leadership which they have lacked. There will soon be a formal effort by the Republicans to try to relieve Senator Lodge of some of his official func

tions, to make wholesale changes in

the membership of the steering and

other committees, and to overhaul and patch up altogether the thing thagoe

by the name of Republican leadership

but is not leadership at all.

Another probable result will be the

resignation of Newberry. In all probability he must make the choice be

tween getting out and being put out. The changed membership of the new

senate is such that it could readily

vote to expel him. Some of the con

servative Republicans who stood by

Newberry and voted for him think he

ought to have taken the opportunity

for a more graceful retirement several months ago, immediately after he got his vindication. That would have 6aved much embarrassment to some of those who voted for him. A little more remotely Judge Kenyon, formerly tha Iowa senator, will be thrust into the Republican presidential situation in 1924 by some members of the farm bloc, of which group Kenyon as a senator was the first leader and is still largely the idol.

Evening Post, Inc.)

working so that they will be able to go on to college. We considered that the practical gift to the school would be a flag pole. "In the name of the class of 1921. I hereby present this pole to Morton high school."

Superintendent W. G. Bate in ac

cepting the pole said: "It is an honor

in accepting this presentation from the class of 1921. The class could not

have selected a more appropriate me

morial to present to the school than

this flag pole. The school has had a small pole on top of the building for some years, but it had never been practical for any use but for members of classes to climb and hang banners on! The school now has what it has wanted for sometime. . and the 'flag

should fly high in the air each day. "I knew the boys and girls of the 1921 class and they were the last ones which I had personal contact with. I know that the selection of the pole is evidence of the spirit and character of

the entire class. It is a true memorial for the class of 1921. In behalf of the school board, I am glad to accept the pole presented by the class of 1921." The address was given by Rev. Ji J. Rae, pastor of the First Presbyterian church. He said, in part: "I desire to congratulate the class of 1921 for this flag pole, and. I congratulate the city of Richmond in having such a

pole. I never have seen one which stood out more proudly. On this pole waves the greatest and grandest flag

that ever waved in any land. You members of this high school should recognize no second place. There is no better flag in the world." Rev. Rae declared that . the flag stood for the highest things in our nation and that It was the students' privilege to accomplish those things which stood for the best in the nation. The pledge to the flag was lod by William Rorney and the entire assemblage repeated it after him. Principal E. C. Cline explained to

the students just before the singing of the Star Spangled Banner at the close of the exercises, that when his company was marching through London, England, during the World war. that he heard many English persons

say, "Who wouldn t fight who couia not win for a Sag like that?"

"The American flag is recognized as

the most beautiful in the world." .
