AGRICULTURE

AGRICULTURE IS N SOLID BASIS Future Promises Much 'in Farm Development Help for Stricken Nations. Peace finds American agriculture on a substantially sound foundation and developing in the right direction, the s-eoretary of agriculture, D. F. Houston, said In an address to the A:i"o elation of American Agricultural colleges and experiment Station at IJakimore, Md., but much remains to be done in this Held, he said, because this fundamental part of the nation's industrial life will not Ftand fctill. "We have our troubles." the secretary said. "We shall be concerned with numerous proposal from the enthusiasts with limited knowldge and less sense of direction. We .shall be pestered by the narrow, selfish, partisan and by the demagogues the farmers of the farmers their pretended self-constituted friends. These are already in evidence and are revealing for ends of their own a willingness to attempt by misrepresentations and cheap appeals to prejudice to injure great constructive agencies. such as the state agricultural colleges and the federal department. They will not make much headway. The American farmers are not easily fooled and we may trust them to assess these people and their motives at their real worth." Because of a shorter actual participation in the war and its freedom from such devastation, as in Europe. th secretary said that America's relative position, industrially, financially, socially, and povernmently, is stronger than it was five years ;iko. . He quoted estimates showing that the European belligerents, exclusive of the Balkan states and Turkey, lost more than T.Ono.ooo men killed and 14,000.Ooo wounded, many of them permanent incapacitated. The secretary also stated that the war debt of all the belligerents will range from 17.". to JUO billion dollars, of hich the share of the United States may be 20 billions, only 11 percent of its wealth, and $200 a person. "It is incrvdible." the secretary said, "that any thinking man can gain .satisfaction from the impairment of the capacity of any part of the world to contribute to the world's national dividend of poods and services-. Our thought should be how in the period of recovery we may properly assist tho desperately stricken people of Kurope, rather than how we can take advantage of them in their present plight. "A league of nations," the secretary said, "seems to me to prerequisite to disarmament in the necessary degree, to the interchange of ommodities among nations under rational and equitable conditions, to the freedom of the seas, and to development of the proper attitude and practice in reference to the backward territories of the world." Every possible assistance, said Mr. Houston, will be given to returning soldiers and others who may-wish "to begin life anew in the difficult business of farming." He spoke in favor of hastening the process from tenancy to farm ownership, the improvement of rural finance; establishment of state systems of pern.il credit unions; immediate resumption of road construction under the federal ai.l road art; proper regulation of the stockyards and packing houses; reduction of diseases and provision of adequate medical facilities in rural communities: continuation of the enlarged activities of the agricultural extension forces; the department of aw-lculture's farm-labor work, and its enlarged market news services; federal and state cooperation to assure reliable information on the cos: of farm production, and legislation to enable state departments of agriculture to cooperate with the federal department in regulatory activities in the s.ime way that the agricultural colleges are now able to oopenitc In research and experimental work. Get Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets That la the joyful cry of thousands since Dr. Edwards produced Olive Tablets, the substitute for calomel. Dr. Edwards, a practicing physician for 17 years and calomel's old-time f nmy. discovered the formula for Olive Tablets while treating patients for chronic constipation and torpid livers. Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets do not contain calomel, but a healing, soothing vegetable laxative. No griping is the "keynote of these little sugar-coated, olive-colcred tablets. They cause the bowels and liver to act normally. They never force them to unnatural action. If you have a "dark brown mouth a bad breath a dull, tired feeling sick headache-torpid liver and are constipated, you'll find quick, sure and only pleasant results from one or two little Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets at bedtime. Thousands take one or two every right just to keep right. Try. them. 10c and 25c per box. All drugüiits.

Fall Fresh It the prime object in to produce the greatest quantity of milk of the be-st quality and at the greatest profit, the evidence is overwhelming that the cows should calve In the autumn months. Calves horn in the fall are easier reared and make better cows thar those born in -.pring or summer. The cow or heifer calving in the fall needs the moht healthy and nutritious pasturage just following the strain and while coming into full flow. As it is impossible for many dairymen to pasture their cows they must be brought to the stable and be Riven the best of food. As milk ha a high and profitable value in the winter time, a carefully balanced ration must ! fed. As a usual thing, the dairyman who his little or no pasture has a small and inadequate feed supply either in silage or other roughage, so he must buy his feed accordingly. It is undoubtedly cheaper to raise as much of his feed as he possibly can, but even when he has no home-raised

"The price of milk is a subject for a great deal of acrimonious debate. Any man who has anything to sell is entitled to a fair price for his product," said Frank Faackes. vice-president. American Steel & Wire company. "Until milk production i standardized there will be eternal warfare between dairyman and consumer. Milk will not !e any cheaper and butter will prohnhly po to a dollar, and we cannot help ourselves. "Perhaps the milk goat will relieve the situation. In Europe for many years goats have boon an important feature of the live stoek industry, but in this country the goat has been an animal of more or lesn ridicule. Milk for th family is no joke. There are millions of families in the Fnited States which may be unable to keep a cow who could get their milk from a family goat good rich milk at a very low cost. The Goat Is a Poor Man's Con. "The fact that tfie jroat can be kept where it would be impossible to keep a cow is beginning to appeal to many people, especially those living in the small towns and suburbs of larsre cities. Our foreicn-born citizens have long appreciated that the goat will furnish much of the living for he family. "There are quite a number of placs in America where goats are profitably raised to furnish milk for sanitariums and for delicate infants; also for canning. "A doe that produces three pints a day is considered only a fair milker; two quarts. ?ond; and three quarts, excellent; provided the lactation period is maintained from 7 to 10 months. "If goafs milk Is properly reduced and handled there should not be any goaty odor. The principal frource of the bad flavor and odor is dirt and hair, which fall into the milk from the body of the animal. Hut keep the buck away from the milk. His pungent odor is often to blame. He should never be kept with the nannies. "The government has seeral books on goats wh'eh may be had for the asking. If you want to buy a goat write to F. II. Marshall, bureau of animal industry. Washington, and he will send you the addresses of the main herds of the country. Unregistered does are worth from $30 to $70: recistered of the best class from $100 to fL'50.

IT: AnrMfi Gws Most Profitable feed he can buy mixed feed, which will give him an increased output and will make him a substantial profit. Sometimes fall born calves are looked upon as a necessary evil, but if properly fed they may be made highly profitable. When milk-fed calves are too expensive a perfect milk Substitute prepared scientifically by the manufacturers of calf meals may profitably be used and all milk sold or made into butter. The manufacturers state that a proper and perfectly satisfactory calf meal can be fed in skim milk at one-third the price of whole milk, the proportion, of course, varying with the location of the dairy in reference to the market. The matter of the successful handling of the dairy heul is discussed clearly in I. S. Farmers' Eulletin No. 3 3. In actual practice, four fall fresh cows have been found equal to rive which calved in the spring, in 1J months' product, and at about fourMfths the cost. spurn; but it would be much better to feed goats for milk the same as we do our cows:. The waste from the kitchen and table furnishes a great deal of her maintenance, but this food, particularly in the backyards of suburban homes, should be supplemented by a well balanced by-product feed. "There should bo a go.it club in every farm bureau. There should be a few goats on every farm. A good buck should be located, with an experienced breeder and arrangements made by th. members of the entire club for his services. "The summer colonist can solve the milk pro!. lern for his babies by buying a fresh goat in the spring, then turning it over to some neighboring farmer in the fall, to keep and breed again tho next spring. It is stated that goat's milk is free fron tuberculosis. There is a profit in good goats, because the milk i always high in price and there is a ready demand for the young. They are very prolific." - (7 A MF, LAW Sl'.M.MAKV FOR tkappkks a i) lir.vrrjts. To aid trappers and hunters the S. department of agriculture has issued farmers' bulletin 1022.

Under the stimulus of high prices there is always danger that trappers will deplete the trapping grounds and permanently decrease the number of fur animals, the federal specialists say.

Set for Indiana From Jan. 20 to 25 by State Director Straus. National enrollment week, for the United States IJoys Working rFerye, will be observed in Indiana. Jan. 20 to 23, inclusive, it officially announced today by Isaac Htraus, federal state director. This organization, which was created to replace the manpower withdrawn from productive labor, will continue its efforts in an cvn intensive way. to prevent the starvation" of the millions of hunerry people in Kurope, and to assist, if possible, in reducing the high cost of livinc in AmericaIt? Indiana record is unsurpassed by that of jny other state for 191$. and every effort will be made to maintain this standing. More .han 30 nisht schools of the state have reported an organization which will devote itself to th? work of promoting the re.-erve, by enrolling every ellipible boy. No effort will be made to secure place for the patriotic boys until June 1. thus avoiding interference with their school tasks. They will then be enjfraped for the entire crop harvesting season, until the opening of school next autumn. Sec'y of Labor W. It. Wilson, of Prcs't Wilson's cabinet, in urprin'-r the success t enrollment week, wri'es Isaac I. Straus, federal state director of the reserve of Indiana, in part as follows: "The imnortance of setting aside ; weel; in order to brinj; to the attention of the joiinc men of the nation the all but overshadowinc needs of impoverished Kurope, is so obvious as to require no accentuation from me. A very large part of the task of rebuilding a dev. 'stated world belongs to the younjr men of this nation. It is not enough that the whole nation should have bem mobilized to win the creat war: it is vital that the whole nation shall ! be mobilized to help broken Kurope to Us feet and set it once more int: th" p-.ths of a felicitous progress. "I trust every youn man in the country of 1 years of acre and over, not now permanently employed, and especially the bovs in our hi-ih schools, will respond to this new appeal as they so finely responded to that other appeal made to them one year ao; that they will enter heartily into the work of brincim; relief to populations appallintr destitute; and that they will join the Fnlted States boys' working reserve to finish what has been so well begun. The war has been won. The far more difficult task remains to secure for the highest interest of mankind, the fruits of victory." TRYING TO FURNISH RELIABLE COST DATA TO NATION'S FARMERS Tn an address Jan. 7 at Haltimore. Md., before thf Association of American Agricultural colleges and Experiment stations. Sec'y of Agricultural D. F. Houston told of the efforts being made by the department to assure for American farmers accurst? figures on the cost of producing, the major farm crops. "For many years," the secretary, said. "Ihave been deeply interested in farm management, a vital part of the economics of agriculture. I am by no means satis-lied with our present plan and especially with that part of the work of the office (the department's office of farm management) relating to studies of costs of farm crops. The office has done valuable work In a number of directions. I5ut some of the studies of farm costs, especially those made during the war, were unsatisfactory in method and were highly inadequate in point of interpretation and presentation. I need not enlarge on the difficulty of securing real costs, especially under systems of mixed farming. I realize that w can not secure precise cost figures for each unit produced. Averages which will serve as guides are the best we can hope for; but we can at least insist that efforts be made to secure actual reliable data on representative farms and that these be satisfactorily interrupted. Nothing but the facts will help the farmers or any other class In the nation. Impressionistic studies are highly likely to be misleading. "I have already had the situation canvassed by able and impartial committees. am now invoking the assistance of a number of experts I shall invite the hdp of the best and most experienced minds in your body, and shall hope at the proper time to lay before the congress a carefully considered scheme for an effective office of farm management. I shall hope that full contacts may re established between this office and similar offices in the agricultural colleges, so that in due time we may be able to give more competent advice to the farmers of the ration in the field of agricultural economics." xoTicn.

COHN AMD SOYS PAY

ELL US HOG FEED Rush County Experiments Prove Great Success, as Shown by Survey. A series of demonstrations in Hush county were conducted during the past season to show the value of hogging down corn and soybeans, and final figures on them have just been announced by M. F. Detrick. county agent, who with the animal husbandry department of Purdue university, cooperated with the farmers in this work. A number of farmers also conducted demonstrations to show the value of feeding tankage with corn while hoRs were on pasture, thus balancing the ration. one of the men. Kd Foster, let 89 head of 123 pound hogs harvest 13 acres of corn and soybeans from Sept. H to Oct. ?.. They made an average daily gain of 1.93 pounds at a daily cost of 9.3 cents with corn worth $1.20; 10.6 with corn worth $1.33, or at a cost of 11.7 with corn worth $1.30. The price of corn varied during the feeding period, but with it worth $1.33, these hogs earned for Mr. Foster, a profit of $279. fC. above the market price of his corn, besides returning fertility to the soil without any labor on the part of the owner. Oscar Newhouse fed 99 head from June 11 to Oct. 2S, and they earned a profit of $730.03. They received corn and tankage and corn by-prod ucts from self feeders and were allowed to run in pasture. Harry McMillian let 138 head of hogs harvest L S acres of standing corn and eat tankage from a selffeeder. Figuring his corn worth $1.33 a bushel, tTiey earned a profit of $li.'..06 above the market price. Another farmer, C'app Miller, fed corn and tankage in a self feeder to 132 head of hogs from June 26 to Oct. 1 and earned a profit of $761. 7S besides realizing $1.33 a bushel for his torn. EDWARD PAULSON KILLED AT STUDEBAKER PLANT While unfastening a pulley on the , overhead crane track in the forge shop of the Studebiker corporation late Friday afternoon, KdwanI Paulsen, S09 Carroll ft., was struck by a traveling crane and crushed to death. Mr. Paulsen went above to unfasten a pulley which was used in hoisting pipe. While working on the track it is thought that he fell across a live wire and was held there until the crane struck him. According to Studebaker officials no one is permitted to work on the crane track without first informing the crane operator. This, the officials stated, Paulsen failed to do. Mr. Paulsen lived only a few minutes after he was brought down from the crane track. He is sur vived by his wife, Mrs. Kmma Paulsen. He was "S years old.

HAMMERSCHMIDT TALKS AT OLIVER CIVIC CENTER That the real utility of a coliseum depends largely upon ones conception of what a coliseum could and should be, was the fact brought out by Attj L. M. Hammerschmidt In his address before the Oltver Civic club at the Oliver school building Friday evening. "The coliseum should not be placed in some part of the residential district, but in the heart of the business district," said Atty. Hammerschmidt. He explained hat the theory of placing the coliseum in the residential district was advanced by some for the purpose of convenience in using the building as a market. This, according to Mr. Hammerschmiit, is wrong, as the building should be used to maintain wholesome public sentiment through discussions, entertainments, lectures, etc. By this plan such sentiment would he crystalized here for years to cor.ie. The inadvisability of placing a coliseum at Springbrook park was dwelt upon during the address. The instance of the Centennial was cited by the attorney, when part of the participants refused to appear because of the poor transportation facilities. Because of poor transportation facilities, according to Mr. Hammerschmidt, interest in the coliseum would drop to a very low mark and the coliseum would los? its usefulness. "The building should be for the people of the city and county and should be a memorial for the sons who so gallantly fought for democracy." continued the attorney. Throughout the address the attorney emphasized the fact that the 'coliseum should be erected in the heart of town and used as a place of entertainment instead of a market place as before proposed; also that It be for the city and county and a memorial for the men from here who fought for democracv.

Mental Telepathy Controls Wife's Actions "My mother-in-law controls my wife's actions by mental telepathy," was the startling testimony given in superior court yesterday at Michigan City by Clarence Bryant, former .South Bend grocer clerk, who is suing Iucille Jackson Bryant, also of South Bend, for divorce. "My wife is also a seven-day Adventist, and her religion forbida the use of meat. he also observes the sabbath on Saturday, whereas I attend Sunday services at the Methodist church. This fact has been the cause of many ructions between US'. "Why judge-, while I was living in South Bend, I used to bring some meat home which I expected my wife to prepare for the evening meal. Do you suppose she would prepare it for me? Not her, she threw the meat out of the window and the dog got it. "Things got to such a pass that she showed more love for the dog than she did for me, so I called her hand and decided it would be either me or the dog." Bryant's mother and Mrs. Battle of South Bend appeared in his behalf. CATALONIA WITHDRAWS FROM MADRID AUTHORITY BARCELONA. Spain, Thursday, Jan. 23. Details were announced here today of the new status for the autonomous state of Catalonia, comprising the present Spanish provinces of Barcelona, Tarragona, Ierida and tierona. The Catalonian government will be composed of a parliament of two chambers and an executive and a governor general. Catalonia will no longer recognize the supreme authority of Madrid in matters of administration affecting. Catalonia alone. The new government proposes to assume the direct control of mines, waterways, taxation and education. Th'i Barcelona dispatch does not say who made the announcement of new status for Catalonia, but it probably was the Catalonia party which for years has been struggling for independence in local matters. In the last few months the situation has been acute and there has been much unrest in Catalonia. The Spanish government at the present time is considering the question of autonomy for Catalonia.

RECEPTION FOR RETURNED IH

Y. M. C. A. the Scene of South Bend's Formal Welcome to Fighting Men. Three hundred and fifty discharged soldiers and sailors, besides a number of South Bend business men. discovered laM night that the Y. M. C. A. isn't such a bad placo after all. After a "big feed", the fellows Just out of the service listened to a fewshort speeches, and then spent the rest of the evening in dancing. The dinner was served by members of the local lülks' lodge, who acted aa waiters. During the meal Donahue's orchestra furnished music, and Barry Scanlon, Mis? Rae Cohen, Joseph Crepeau and Miss Mabel Abrains rendered vocal selections. - After the waiters had cleared away part of the dishes, a number of lied Cro&s girls distributed cigars and cigarets to the boys. Maj. F. I. Ienni-i was then introduced as toastmaster. and the speeches began. In the absence of Mayor Carson, who is confined to his home with sickness. City Atty. T. W. Slick made the address of welcome. Because the toastmaster had used such honeyed language in introducing him, or because the next mayoralty campaign is only about three years off. the city attorney declared that he didn't know of anyone who would mäh a better successor for Dr. Carson than Mr. Dennis. We'iv ;iad You're Rack. ' We're glad you're back," declared Mr. Slick in his address. "I'm speaking for the people of South Rend, and believe me, we're all mighty glad. Whether you were in the trenches, or whether you were unfortunate enough to have to turn back just after you got overseas, or whether you didn't even get out of a camp in this country, so long as you did what was required of you, we're proud tf you, and we're glad you're back." At the conclusion of his speech, Mr. Slick proposed a toast to the men who went, but who didn't and won't come back. All men in uniform rose and drank the toast in water. "To the men who didn't come bark," was Mr. Slick's toast. "May we who are here be given greater enthusiasm to do our work for the patriotic things for which they fought and died." Sergt. Irrll Replies. Sergt. Carl F. Prell, headquarters company, 137th field artillery, delivered the response on behalf of the soldiers. "South Der.d and St. Joseph county .erved as an excellent example for us from the beginning he declared. "We watched with interest the reports of your campaigns here, and it did us good to see how well you stood back of us. How could the fellows from here do anything but their best, when they knew the home folks were behind them?' "And you have done more than stand back of us, and we're grateful to you. You have jbs waiting for all of us, you are ready to help us get back into civil life. I thank you, in behalf of the soldiers and sailors, for what you have . done and are doing. "We are better citizens for our having gone away. We have learned to see South Rend in its true lightNow we make our homes in South Rend from choice not because we were born here. We're going to work hard to return the thinps you have done for us. We're going to take a pride in our city that wo have never before taken. That's what this war has done for us." Old Commander SixjsiWs. Col. G. W. Freyermuth, who commanded the old third regiment of the Indiana national exiard, and who was in command of the 137th field artillery for a time, was the next speaker. "I'm glad that I can talk to you man to man," the colonel began. "I don't have to abide by the army regulations any more. I can slap you on the back and say. 'Hello, Jack! I'm glad to se you.' And now I want to tell you a few things. "Perhaps some of the officers of the regular army would be shocked because I want to talk to you this way. They seem to think, some of them at least, that there are no gentlemen among the enlisted men. But I take exception to that right here and now." After relating a number of stories concerning some f the etlicers and men in his former command. Col. Freyermuth concluded with the admonition: "Get to work as quickly as you can, fellows. It's all right to loaf around for a day or two. Rut don't let laziness get hold of you. There are Jobs awaiting you, go and take then;. You're welcome as the flowers in June, right now. but if you stand around on the streets for any length of time, telling stories until you begin to believe them yourself, you'll be about as welcome as a sore boll." Invitexl to lUkV Temple. Th announcement was made that all returned soldiers have been iven a threo-months' free membership in the Y. M.
