Farmer's Income Boosted Most Byt Raising of Hogs
Wheat Shown To Be Second Highest Individual Source of Gain Corn and Oats Tie in Producing Good Financial Return
(By Associated Press) COLUMBUS. Ohio, Nov. 20. The! hog adds more to the farmer's Income than any other enterprise on the farm, j according to statistics compiled by the department of rural economics at Ohio State university. The figures show that 21.6 per cent of the farmer's income is derived from the Bale of hogs. The total receipts f'om livestock amount to 37.7 per cent of the gross Income. Dairy cattle come second in the livestock sales, with 6.7 per cent, and beef cattle third, with 4.2 per cent. Wheat is shown to be the second highest indivdual source of Income This crop furnishes 15.4 per cent of the total income, as compared with 30.4 per cent for all crops. Corn and oats are about equal in sales importance, each contributing about 3.2 per cent of the total sales. Whole milk comes third In importance, with 14.5 per cent of the total, while dairy products as a group return a total of 20.6 per cent, or nearly equal to the receipts from hogs. The average sales income per farm for Ohio is $204 a year. These figures were worked out from actual survey statistics on 657 Ohio farms in all sections of the staie.
hay and grain show will be held in connection with the International live stock exposition at the stockyards.
The united States department of
agriculture, the state agricultural col
leges, experiment stations, farm bureaus, Canadian Seed Growers' association, and other related organizations are co-operating in sending exhibits to
the show and in making the premium
lists. Judges for the show will be selected from these different organizations, who also will' send state repre
sentatives to Chicago to help handle the exhibits.
By applying gypsum or land plaster to manure, the ammonia gas is caught and preserved in good condition for
fertilizing purposes, reports the de partment of soil3 at Ohio State unlver. sity. The gypsum acts as a preserva
tive to the manure, while it is still in the pile, but when it is applied to the field, it stimulated the growth of de
composing bacteria.
At the Ohio Experiment Station, 320 pounds of gypsum caused an average increase in yield of five bushels of
corn, one buscel of wheat, and 60 pounds of clover, when added to yard manure. Experts in the soils department say the unavailable potash In the soil, is converted to available forms by the use of gypsum. The most common source of gypsum is said to be acM phosphate. 36 Testing Associations. Cow testing associations in the ftate now number 36, figures at the department of dairying at Ohio State university show. The Barnesville association, completing its eighth year, is the oldest. . As an indication of the worth of the testing idea, it is pointed out that when the Bares ville association started, it had an average of 374 cows, which gave 5,418 pounds of milk, and 269.9 pounds of butter fat. That was in 1914-15. In 1921-22, the association milked 249 cows, which gave an average 7.136 pounds of milk, and 356.9 pounds of butter fat for the year. In the last six years, the average annual production of butter-fat in the Westerville association is reported as risen from 235.8 pounds, to 321.3 pounds. There are usually 26 farmers In each association, so that the official tester has one day each month with the farmer. On that day, "he points ou the good and bad qualities of different cows, suggests better feeding rations, and helps clear up points in dairying not well understood by the farmer.

SWEDEN'S EIGHT HOUR DAY WILL CONTINUE FOR 3 MORE YEARS
STOCKHOLM, Nov. 20. Sweden'r. eight- hour day, acceptable to the laboring element, but not popular with employers, will be continued under a provisional law for the next three
years, if the recommendation just: made by the social board is accepted by the government. j
The social board, assisted by the board of trade and the delegation
working for international social legis
lation, was instructed by the government to investigate the general effectiveness of the eight-hour day in Sweden, and now reports that the time is not ripe either for permanent enactment or abolishment, recommending, therefore, that the provisional measure be continued for another three years. . Swedish employers have in general opposed the establishing of a uniform short day on the ground that the cost of production has been increased, and that it has led to difficulties in thost industries where the output fluctuates, where production is intense during some weeks and slack during others. Similar disadvantages have arisen in all seasonal trades. A peculiar circumstances in this

country is that, owing to the latitude,
the days are unusually long in summer
and short in winter. Thus where work can be done in daylight, as in the
building trades, the eight-hour day works hardship for the employer and limits the amount of building possible during the year. Keeping the above objections in mind, the social board has recommended that the hours of overtimij allowed be increased from 20 per month to 30, and from 120 per year to 150. With this flexibility in the
law it is believed the disadvantages of a more rigid system can' be obviated. The workers declare that the labor efficiency has increased under the provisional law. They are enthusiastic over the better standard of living which it has brought, giving them more time for social and domestic life, as well as for study, recreation, and general self-improvement.

Thousands Starving for Lime and Iron
One of the important laws of health is
that foods containing iron are absolutely essential. A
lack of fod tron in the average diet has produced a vast armv of
pale, aneraic.bloodless people.
who go about with cold hands, cold feet, and a shivering spine
because they haven't suffic
ient iron in their blood to keep them warm.
Another law is that W Hmt
is just as essential as any other
food element. The lack of food
lime in most of the foods -we
eat explains the decay of teeth and the lack of "pep." Give your body the amount of food iron and lime it requires and you are sure to know a difference in your energy, vitality, general health. Eat Battle Creek Foods Battle Creek Food Specialties offer you the food iron and lime in the quantities needed.
Comparison shows that Battle Creek an average of seven times as much food iron and nearly two and a half times as much food lime as
do fifteen of the most common food stuffs.
