SILVER DUCKWING GAMES

The pit dimes of Kurland were the ancestors of tho Silver Duckwiny Käme fowls. When cock lighting wa.s forbidden, fanciers bcan breeding j i t Kanu-s for exhiiition, strivin-r for extreme length of neck and Icks and uniformity of color. They developed several varieties, all excellent for the table, bat none exceptional as producers. Inhibition sanies, therefore, have not been adopted by utility breeders. Fanciers strive to produce specimens with the longest and tlime:?t

necks, short, hard, heart-shaped bodies: short, narrow, cloey-tltted tails; extreme length of legs and thighs and brilliantly colored plumThe Silver Imckwing variety is strikingly colored. A silvery-white neck hackle, back, saddle hackle, top of wings and wing bow contrast sharply with the rich greenish-black of the breast, body and tail in the males. The female is gray with a slight tinge of salmon on the breast. The hackle is silvery-'.vhite, striped with black.

Hy (i. Henry. That is what America must ilo snai! A "do thinus" period is upon us if we would sae the world front autocracy arid make, it safe for democracy. We may theorize and dream for from theories and dreams come the ideas that may bo built Into concrete things, hut the ideas must be executed vigorously. At this moment agriculture is the very mot important industry on the face of the earth, even though millions of men arc righting; for agriculture reaches everywhere, everybody, everything. Absolutely the foundation of a country is its agricultural system, whether the country is at war or enjoying peace. And a good agricultural system requires good highways, good railroads. gool mining system, good banking, good shipping, good general business management requires eificient snap! All other industries are dependent upon agriculture, and agriculture is dependent upon them, in turn. Hut agriculture is the ground work, the basis, the foundation of everything material, of prosperity. And it even reaches our spiritual condition for hungry men are ugly, whilst wall-fcd men are, at least, good-naturedly reasonable and reaMininir. So then, this tractor idea, just coming through, is very, very important. Several men. living up to American traditions. which mean rising to an emergency. hae put American genius to work, and from their inspirations have come the iron and steel machines which so far excel the horse on the farm that there can be no comparison made. Take this one the Cleveland

tractor. Uollin II. White's machine. It is so mobile, so quick on its feet. so sure, has such perfect control of itself that it reaches into corners with various agricultural tools never accessible for cultivation except by hand. This tractor will actually "chase its tail" in a 12-foot circle! Set it. start it, and you may go away, kav: ing it to whirl round and round dizzily, demonstrating its mechanical perfection. This powerful little machine travels on its own road it lays its own track as it goes along, with the result that its weight is distributed live pounds to the square inch and pretty soft soil or very muddy roads will sustain this weight! Think over it: compare live pounds to the square inch to a horse's hoof or the common, narrow steel tire of a wagon! One man runs the Cleveland. He may haul a mowing machine, a harrow, u gang plow, a truck (or oldfashioned wagon) loaded with cedar rails or stone for the fence he is repairing on the back lot. It will run a hay baler or a corn husker, or do any other similar belt-power job. It is indeed a valuable "hired man" and it works for reasonable wages. Its "feed" doesn't cost anything like the Upkeep of a team of horses. The tirst time the writer saw it doing "stunts" on rough ground he asked, "What language does he speak?" It worked so ethciently that it seemed the uncanny thing must talk. It is one of the .ttlcieneyuers born. partly, as a result of the war and. do you know, our ideas anil methods may be so improved, our spiritual viewpoint so uplifted by the fact of our going to war. that it is Just possible that after the war we shall say: "The world suffered greatly, but the world improved immensely."

Five reasons for selecting und savins double the usual amount of seed corn in the localities where the corn crop is maturing in good condition, are put forth by iae United States department of agriculture for the consideration of farmers in a statement issued today. The department believes that much more than the usual acreage of corn will be planted next sarins and that now is the best, surest, and easiest time to get the necessary seed. The five reasons for increasing the seed corn supply are: ( 1 ) First class seed corn is scarce almost every spring. (2) Extended plantings and replantings practically exhausted the hold-over supply last June. 3) in some sections this year's crop has been destroyed by drought or early frosts. Tarmers of these sections should now arrange to secure seed from localities possessing climatic conditions similar to their own. (4) in the localities favored with a crop this year, next year's crop may be destroyed, and there should now be selected a supply of locally adapted seed for II IS and a hold-over supply for the 1011 planting. ( Hail storm.-. Hoods, and droughts yearly destroy millions of acres of young corn, making second and third plantings necessary. Seed corn dealers who provide ample supplies of seed of early maturing varieties render valuable service by prompt deliveries for these emergency plantings.

So many farmers boys have joined the military, ?o many more may be called if the war continues, that our farmers have the keenest of blood interest In securing an . early victory. On the economic side, a f-ure market at fair prices for the product the farmer has to sell, with reasonable prices for the commodities he has to buy. also depends upon a victorious peace. For these persop.:! and self.sh reasons, farmers are vitally interested in the second Liberty loan. They are ready to subscribe their share.

j according to their means, now that

terms of payment have been made so convenient. Over and above all other considerations, however, is the farmer's deeply rooted patriotism. His devotion to the American Mag was shown by his unlimited sacrifices in the war to preserve the union, and again in the Spanish war. and in these latter days, by the great number of farmers already serving in army and navy. Indeed so many farmers have been anxious to go to the front that it is now sugg'estcd that the rest of them be required to stay at home as food producers. Every dollar that farmers subscribed to Liberty bonds now helps by so much to win the War and to clear up labor conditions which are giving farmers so much concern. As an investment the money should be safe and yield a good return free of tax. Important as is such financial profit, it is the lease of the other and more powerful appeals that Liberty bonds make to the patriotic farmer, and to every member of his family. As one of them writes: "All that I am or have is thine. Oh my country."

Place the sulphur in a pan and pour a little wood alcohol or gasoline over it and then light it. Only enough fluid to start the tire is necessary. The sulphur makes a very dense smoke. The operation should be repeated at least on o within a few weeks. The above methods are Intended for use where the pests have gotten the upper hand. I'nder ordinary conditions this would not be necessary. As a preventive measure it is well to clean all houses at least once a month, supplying new f.estin and floor material. At this time the roosting quarters and nests should be sprayed with a strong disinfectant. Two or three times a year the cracks about the rests, and nests should be painted with a coaltar solution. Then, once a year, in the fall, before the birds are shut up for the winter the quarters should be fumigated.

Mir liberty has been attacked on sea and on land, our freedom and institutions have been threatened, and our nation placed in jeopardy. Our soldiers are called to arms and are marching to the front; our good women are devoting themselves to lied Cross work, and civilians everywhere are aiding the government in its multiplicity of duties. War means supreme sacrifice to every able-bodied citizen, including men. woman and children. It means unselfish and unremitting service. The tremendous preparation which the government is making to tiring this .awful war to a successful close means the expenditure of billions of dollars. This money must come from our citizens and from every class, including the laborer, shopkeeper, manufacturer, hanker, financier and farmer. It borders upon treason for anyone, who can spare a dollar, to withhold it from his country's call. There are millions of dollars deposited in the banks by the farmers of this country which are earning them little or nothing. The Liberty loan bonds ollered by our government bear four percent interest. If patriotic reasons do not make a sufficient appeal for the farmer to invest i ri them, his selfish interests should move him to render his country's financial assistance. The Liberty loan bonds are absolutely a safe investment. Every dollar not required for our business should be ready for prompt purchase of these bonds. This is no sacrifice, it is a profitable investment for you. It is helping your country ard protecting your home and your business. This is one of the few chances that have come to American citizens to have money serve both patriotism and profit. I am particularly anxious that the American farmer should subscribe generously to this second Liberty loan. He has responded nobly to the call for increased crops and a hint to him that his money is needed also, will lead, I am sure, to the same unselfish devotion to his nation. The farmer must not neglect this duty. Our country needs his financial assistance, and for his own welfare he should be generous with his wealth. There may be slackers by failing to offer their money, but I vouchsafe the opinion that no financial slackers will be found among the farmers of America.

There are twice as many cattle and swine in the United States as

i in any other country, w ith a total

value ol live stock products of more than ? 4,000,000,000. Our corn corp is ten times greater i;m that of any other country. Our wheat crop, though not all we had hoped for, is bisrt r than that of any rival. Our cotton output is more than half the world's supply. Our coal production of nearly half a billion tons is twice that of Great Hritian, our nearest competitor. Our oil production of nearly "00,000.000 barrels is twice that of Russia, which ranks second. Our output of iron and stee.l is twice that of Germany, our nearest rival. We produce more copper than all of the remainder of the world put together. In Manufactured goods last year, our output was more than ?:;6,000,ooo.ooo. Our balance of exports over imports amounted to over $ ."t.OOO.GftO,0 0 it. Our gold re.-erve of about Oeo.000.000 is more than one-third of the world's total. our wealth is more than 12.000 for every man, woman and child in the country. Our railroad milage is more than double that of all Europe. The total wealth of Grea P.rlfian. France and Germany amounts to .Ul'T.äüO.OOO.oOO. That of the United States aggregates 1 2 .0,0 00, -OOo.OOo. The absorption of a second Liberty ioan appears a simple matter, in view of these facts, and comparing what has been done in placing loans in foreign countries.

COMMUNITY MARKETING REDUCES EGG LOSSES

If farmers would realize that the annual value of the country's egg crop is e-iual to the average value of its annual wheat crop approximately $60A, 000.000 and that nearly eight percent of the eggs marketed art- lost through spoilage or breakage, the industry undoubtedly would be put on a more businesslike basis, says a farmers' bulletin of the United States department of agriculture, the community egg circb' recently reprint d. Improper handling between the farm and the market, tho bulletin declares, is responsible for a large part of the lost-. This loss, it is suggested, could be greatly decreased if farmers would cooperate more generally and market their eggs through community egg circles. These organizations take care of the frequent collection and the proper packing and marketing of the eggs of members, attend to accounting and making collections, establish standards, encourage the raising of better breeds cf poultry, the use of improved methods, and the production of Infertile eccs. The bulletin tdl? farmers how to go about the formation of a community egg circle and prints a constitution and by-laws for uch an organization. Copies of the bulletin may be had free, as long as the supply last. by application t the United States department of agriculture.

TIME SELECT YOUR SWEET POTATO SEED

Select your seed sweet potatoes in tho fall when you are digging and can locate disease-free hills is the advice of th IT. S. department of agriculture. .Such seed selection will help your next crop escape diseases -.vhich each year destroy from lo.OO'VJOO to 13,000,000 bushels of sweet potatoes. A little extra rare in handling your market crop and providing proper storage will avoid important wastes this year. When the potatoes are dug. the seed for ntxt year's crop should be saved. Split the stems down to th roots and take seed potatoes from the best yielding hills where the entire hill is feee from black-rot. stem-rot and other diseases. Plants with blackened inside have stem-rot. wilt, or blue-stem. Any sweet potatoes with nearly round, sunken spots on the surface should be- discarded. Such potatoes probably have black-rot. Potatoes with other types of wounds on the Urface and with rotted ends should not be taken for seed. Other diseases may be har

bored in such spots and may transmit the diseaso to the crop next year. How to Hiindlc and Storv. Farms should provide themselves with proper storage facilities. For specifications for storage house construction, write for farmers' bulletin No. 54 S. V. S. department of agriculture, Washington, D. C When the sweet potatoes are dug. the., should bo handled with care so a: to avoid bruis-s in which dis.-ase germs ofton gain a foothold. A barrel of sweet, potatoes is oittn worth as much as a barrel of apple?, but they are seldom handled in the same careful way. The seed and, in faet. all sweet potatoes should be held at a temperature of S5 degrees during the sweating period, with free ventilation of the storage room. The temperature should then be lowered gradually to 50 degrees or ZZ degrees F. and the sweet potatoes kept at this temperature in a wel!ver.tilated room.
