THE STRANGER WITH A 0001 I —~l The stranger with a chicken coop cn his wagon or his autjmo- [ bile is well deserving of careful watc’ ing days. He may be ’getting his chickens all honestly or he may be gathering them afi ter nightfall. So he is a good kind cf fellow to keep moving. lln some cases he appears as an agent, selling some kind of j goods, and during the day time I offering to swap the goods for j chickens—and he is a far better I iudge cf chickens than the man I he seeks to swap with is of the goods being swanped. Then as I night comes on. if t e day’s trading has not been satisfactory the ! swapper knows pretty well I where to go to fib his coons. So I the best thing to do with the stranger with a chicken coop is I to keep him moving. There are, , d nty of reliable poultry dea’ers; whom you know and can find any I lav to sell your chiekerfs to, and in the end you will be far ahead. | MOTOR- BOAT MENACES The motor beat is fast becom-l : ng the greatest fishing menace! ’at Lake Wawasee, according to I ? special article in the IndianI ’polis News recently.

De--pite the law. the “sputter” boat s constantly used on the lake •rd the fishing injured. The writer then added: Old-time fishermen, who happen to be fluent in the use of profane and sarcastic words have been trying to increase their vocabularies this summer in an effort to do justice to the situat on. | To them the lake is a place to 'sh ami they are as keen about; niict as an ethical golfer. “Even the sputter boats, ouinped with modest but en-i thusiastic art-board motors, were j locked cn with suspicion by the Tshermen when such boats begin' to make a sounding beard of the f bosom of the lake.

Daily Sun of Sentember 2: An odd looking machine with 16 wheels and about 25 feet long. w?s pushed over a number of raved streets on the South side Saturday, and attracted a large number of curious persons. It was a profile machine, operated by Otis C. Isenbarger, Illinois state highwav testing engineer, and L. W. Abrelk his assistant. The machine draws profiles of the pavement so that the slightest unevenness in surface is detected. Depressions or bumps are greatly exaggerated by the instrument enabling the engineer- to get very accurate profiles. The machine was used on eighth and Adams streets, where it was complained that the work was bejng done in an inferior manner. South Utica street and Oak streets also were tested to compare concrete with brick surfaces. City Engineer M. J. Douthitt assisted in the operation of the machine. A’l state highways now are being profiled so that the denartment knows exactly what kind of work the contractors are doing. Otis C. Isenbarger is a son of Mr. and Mrs. N. C. Isenbarger of this city.

VS. ONE CROP GAMBLING Agricultural Director of the American Bankers Association Tells of Efforts to Solve Farmers’ Problems. One of the leading problems that Is confronting many of our states is that of diverslßed farming, says D. H. 3tis. Agricultural Director of the American Bankers* Association. “During the past year the Agricultural Commission of the association aas arranged for conferences in eight at the twelve Federal Reserve dis’ tricts,” he says. “At these confer»nces we have tried to get in touch ‘ with the agricultural needs of the respective regions and advise with the I oankers and otljers interested as to 1 what the banks might do to heljrHn their solution. A resolution adopted in the Fifth District serves as an example of what is needed in many sections: “ ‘Encouragement of a proper system of diversified farming in which farmers will grow as far as practical all the food and feed crops necessary for feeding the family and livestock of the farm, and to keep on the farms the requisite kinds and amounts of livestock best to meet the economic needs of farming In this district.’ “The conference In the Ninth District emphasised strongly the need of greater diversification. The farmer who raises nothing but wheat is unwise. even foolish. He is one of the worst kinds of gamblers, one who gambles on the weather, on insects, on drought, and various other things that affect the quality of the product. The fanner who raises wheat and along with it the other crops and keeps a reasonable amount of livestock has something to fall back on when wheat is plentiful and cheap: He is not putting all of his eggs in one basket. Diversification for Contentment “In many of the states the first ! step in diversified farming Is to get the farmer to raise sufficient livestock to feed his own family. He needs to get a cow, sow and a couple of dosen chickens so that his own needs can be supplied without going into debt at the store. Livestock used to furnish food for the family will frequently consume large amounts of feed that would otherwise go to waste. Livestock enables the family to set a better table and • live under more healthful conditions. More work is furnished to the family, making possible larger family income. If the farm family is producing enough to feed ftself. there will be much more contentment and much less idle time in which to criticise the government. “The Agricultural Commission is doing all in its power to encourage a sane system of diversified farming. The subject is being discussed at vari--1 ous conferences, articles and edito--1 rials are being published for the purpose of acquainting tankers with the importance of this work. Banker* Are Assisting “It is encouraging at these conferences to find that the bankers are incorporating the subject of diversified farming in their program and laying plans in every way possible to carry it out To this end we have records of a number of banks who are putting up money to their farmers to purchase livestock. They are encouraging boys and girls to go into club work. “For the coming year we hope to carry on this work in greater detail 1 and as tar as possible hold conferences with the officers and members of the agricultural committee in each of the respective states at the Agricultural j College. We believe that in coordinating this work with the college, we will reap the benefit of team effort. We are pleased with the hearty response we are receiving from the various colleges of agriculture and we believe that the opportunity is great for influencing various communities tn better types # of farming and in improved methods of business management.” Banker-Farmer Notes Chambersburg. Pennsylvania, banks and Chamber of Commerce at the beginning of 1923 mapped out a vigorous program for the promotion of agriculture in the county. Throughout the year they assisted in keeping the fartq organisations functioning and distributed to them agricultural bulletins and information of interest. They held rural community meetings and entertainments, exhibits of farm and borne products, and advertised home products. One specific result vas to induce a milk receiving statkw to locate in the vicinity, and during the first month 320.000 was paid the farmers for their milk. This marked the turning point in the farmer's business. California bankers created an emergency fund of 11,000,000 at a meeting recently in San Francisco to combat the foot-and-mouth disease which has broken out in that State. The Federal and State governments each pay one half of the appraised value of the animals slaughtered, and the State government was not prepared to meet this unexpected expense. The bankers agreed to supply the funds needed as a loan to the State government. The Vermont Bankers Association offered *I.OOO to winning club members in 1923. Part of the funds was used for prises for project leaders, but between five and six hundred dollars was awarded to outstanding boys and girls winning in the various projects. *”*"*■, "L — o — The Zero Milestone.
