THE COMING YEAR , The fact that hope springs eternal' in the' heart and that there is ever a rainbow of " promise in the distant is something" for "which we all can give thanks. It is because' of' this hope and because of this rainbow that we welcome the dawning of the New Year in happy anticipation. The past is over and done with; but the future,' with all its happy possibilities, is our own rich possession.- The New Year includes another spring season and other harvest days. Its panorama lies invitingly before us and it is rich in promise. It affords new opportunity for optimistic and zestful existence, for the enjoyment of things hoped for but not obtained during the .closing year. And thus we bid the Old Year goodbye without sorrow, and welcome the New Year with smiling eyes. If we have learned from past experience to rectify the mistakes of earlier days, the New Year will afford us that opportunity. Humanity

makes many mistakes and all of us are prone to error. Not wilfully so,

but naturally. Experience is the great teacher in all such cases, be it in the conduct of the ordinary affairs of life or in our business or farm operations. We are ever learning fi-om day to day and from season to season, also from year to year, as we

look back and compare. If. from neg

and income, we, as farmers, can in

sure that this will not occur again

because we have learned a needed

lesson.

Cliff Gregory, editor of the Prairie Farmer, designates the now defunct Grain Growers, Inc., as "that troublesome child of the American farm bureau federation" and says that its disposition "is- a problem of great con

cern to the middle west. It is hio opinion that "the state federations of " the corn belt have a definate obligation to set up a grain marketing agency for their members." Speaking of the flood of money which was poured into the coffers of that concern within the past year he points out that $78,556.70 came from the three states of Indiana, Illinois and Iowa. Whether that sum embraces only the membership fees, or also includes the loans from the states named, Mr. Gregory does nor state. From our information as to the amounts actually loaned by the three state farm bureaus it would not surprise us if the sum named consists of the loans made by these state bodies, independent of membership fees from individuals. It is possible, however, that these loans were reduced by partial payments to the various states while the canvass was actively-on. A list of 10.000 members in any single state insures an income of $100,000 in dues from that state, aside from any borrowings, as the fee was $10 on joining. This was a sinele

ana not an annual expense, beinsr

practically a life membership in the

organization. Mr. Gregory sums up in the statement that while the convention "did

not. discuss this question and took no action on.it the middle west fels, that in the . emergency, it has the right to ask that the American farm bureau budget provide a substantia! sum to put tho grain growers sales aeency on its feet." He further states that such a request was presented to the executive committee at the convention. - - Winter Shipping Fever. As many feeders have experienced, cattle and sheep are liable to contract a disease in cold weather, known aa

stockyards or shipping fever. The losses on this account are most heavily felt by those- who buy stockers and feeders, althoufh milking cow? and sheep also may become infected. The disease is a poisoning of the blood wherefore it often runs but a short course and quickly becomes fatal. The disease is technically known a.s

hemorrhagic septicemia, and those in-!

terested can obtain a free bulletin on the. subject by writing to the department of agriculture, at Washington. .. While the bureau of animal industry is endeavoring in every way possible to combat the spread of this disease,

it sometimes happens that a shipment of apparently healthy cattle or sheepshortly after arrival in a feed lot, will develop symptoms that will cause the owner to believe that the animals are afflicted with pneumonia. Teh affected animals as a rule refuse feed. There is quite often difficulty in breathing and coughing may occur.

There may be discharge from the nos

trils and strings of mucous may hang

from the mouth. The animals lose

flesh very rapidly, their abdomens be

coming puffed up and the eyes sunken.

Disinfection of stockyards which may be effectivetempoiarily can not be fore, as an effective means of controlped to farms for feeding. The vaccination of susceptible animals from stockyards has been suggested, thererelied upon to protect the animals shipling the disease. These vaccinations

should be made by a veterinarian and! only fresh, tested vaccines or bacterids should be used. Such cattle and sheep should not be allowed to mingle

with other animals on the farm until

30 days have elapsed. A Hard Luck Story. A brief tale of loss in shipping hay is going the rounds of the farm press, as follows.: "A farmer at Iowa City, la., shipped a car of hay to St. Louis. He got $82.61 for it. The freight and other charges totalled $92.13." The kind of hay or the number of tons in the car is not given, nor is there mention of the price paid per ton. But aside from all this the moral seems to be that St. Louis is not a profitable market for hay grown around Iowa City, and that the farmer who feeds his hay, or sells it to his neighbors, will be best off. According to John W. Coverdale, of Iowa, general secretary of the American farm bureau federation: "The far-

The last will and testament of Frederick Landman, late a resident of Ver-i sailles, who died recently in that village, has been filed for probate and record. Mr. Landman leaves both real and personal property together,

to his neighbor. Together we win is

our watchword today." He then goes on to say that:

. "The object of the farm bureau is to create a county-wide organization to advance and improve the agriculture of the county, to co-operate with the state colleges of agriculture and the United States department of agriculture in the employment .of a county agent; to develop a definite - program of work that will bring to the county

better economic, social and educational conditions so as to make farming

more profitable and country life more.

attractive." Mr. Coverdale then ex

pands his idea to cover the state and

then- "the nation, to the good of the

whole country. Mice Kill Trees. "There are men who fear mice, Fruit growers have good cause to,"

so extension specialists in orchard

growing tell us. These and other rodents sometimes gnaw and girdle

trees, after the snow has fallen, andj how to prevent, the killing of fine

trees, and all fruit trees, is the problem of the fruit man. One authority advises as follows: "To hoe away weed and , rubbish from around the trunk of the trees.

as far out as the branches spread, with the soil slightly mounded around the trunk, is one way. Poisoned bait, scattered in mouse runways, near burrows, and in trash piles are also useful if the bait is thoroughly set This is especially necessary in sod orchards. "Poisoned grains or poisoned sweet potatoes are the best baits. The sweet potatoes is. most effective, provided it does not freeze. Place 3

quarts of freshly cut bait in a pan and wet it with water. Drain off the water, and then slowly sift from a pepper-box an eighth of an ounce of powdered strychnine, mixed with an equal weight of baking soda. Stir constantly to distribute the poison evenly. An ounce of strychnine wil poison a bushel of bait. "To poison grain, dissolve an ounce of strychnine sulfate in two quarts of boiling water, and two pints of laundry starch in a half pint of cold water. Add the starch to the strychnine solution and boil for a few minutes until the starch is clear. Let the grain stand overnight to absorb the poison. Do not use more than a teaspoonful of bait in one place. The poison, of course, must be handled

with the utmost care, so that children
