MUCK CROPS SHOW TO BE AT WARSAW The annual northern Indiana muck crops show which has been, staged for several years will be held November 8,9, 10 and 11 at Warsaw, according to announcement today by ( F. C. Gaylord, secretary of the Indiana Vegetable Growers’ Association, which co-operates with the Agricultural Extension Department of Purdue University and local organisations in staging the show. Premiums with a value of more than SBOO have been assured and the Warsaw Chamber of Commerce has voted $250 from its treasury to help defray expenses of the show which always attracts several thousand persons from the muck land areas of * northern Indiana. The show was held for the first time in 1930 at Nappanee; the next year at Garrett and last year at So. Bend.

(COUNTY FARM IMPROVES DAIRY HERD W hen the K osciv si o Conn’ y Farm joined the Dary Heid Impiovement ‘Association tlrec years ego the herd of 19 cows hardly furnished enough milk for cooking purposes. Now the herd numbers less than 15 head, and • each inmate receives butter, cream, ' land milk front the herd. In addition! to this, a small amount of cream is sold. j Eight unprofitable cows were ' .slaughtered during the first year. ; The cow tester’s record showed the 'herd averaged 9716 pounds of milk 'and 339 pounds of butterfat. Six I cows produced more than 300 pounds of butterfat While 3 failed to reach ■ this level. The average cost of feed- ' iing each cow amounted to J 67.00, | I data submitted to the dairy extension department of Purdue Univer-j sity, in charge of the extension! shows. ' ' •/ Under the efficient management of Mild Malloy, the superintendent, several changes were made the second year. Better rations were fed, a protein supplement being idded to ' the ration; dry cows were given a longer rest period and fed more liberPastures' were impoved and alfalfa hay was included in the winter ' ration. These changes increased the | . hc:d record t® 10,786 pounds of milk j land 391 pounds of butterfat the sec-< ond year while the annu; I feed cost > wrs reduced to $43.00 <per cow. All •of the cows Produced 300 pounds of butterfat or more. The milk produced by each cow is now weighed after 'each milking and the grain allow-’ ahce is varied according to the daily 'milk fiow. Tie grain ration found! most suitable |s 200 pounds of ground ■com, 200 pounds of- ground oats, 1200 pounds of wheat bran and 100 i ' pounds of a protein supplement in I additr n to a liberal supply of le- ' gume hay. All there is no silo, succulent roughage. is not fed during, the winter menths. I Superintend* nt Malloy believes in j replacing heifers of his own breeding. He raises only the heifers from ! bis best cows which are grade Hol- I Steirs In to maintain the pijcsent high standard of production, great care is necessary in the selec- ! i : >f a herd sire. The bull now in te vice in this herd is a brother to Quk Grove May Belle Hengerveld, ' ft hie -state chunpion, with a record of ; 28,548 pounds of milk and 965 pounds of butterfat. Another sister has a i .ecord of 555 pounds of butterfat as ■ a two-year-oldi A sister of the bull’s sire has a record of 400 pounds of ‘ blotter f. f at tvjo years of age. . The pedigree of this bull h; 8 good I production «n each side. Any bull I must be looked upon with a certain degree of uncertainty until daughters prove his worth but the possibi- 1 f this pull transmitting high ' <production are far above the aver- . kgc. - I Rigid cullinlg of low producers, * fbeding a balanced ration according | •to the needs of each cow in addition I to o'her practices of good herd man-; i agempnt have! enabled ’the superin- i tendenl to serve milk and butter to I leach inmate whereas before a larger i herd produced bkrely enough for the | kitchen’s neeejs.

It is not because the Neva j Is a foreign ship. ia»r that she brought 1 foreign produce in spite of the •‘Buy British" campaign. But the Russian j builders of this new vessel have dared , to violate all the notable traditions of ' the s. a by designing a ship without , the beluvetl steering wheel. The forefathers of these old salts I fought hard t<* retain w*'ls. ropes, rig- : ging, and wooden hulls, but gradually ! reeigned themselves to steam, clear I , superstructure, and steel. Many of the I pres< nt generation have even t>een converted from strum motor power, but | a ship without a steering wheel is re- ; garded by most British seamen as the ! very last straw. • If this Russian innovation Is unt- ! versally aeceHed. the traditional warn- j Ing. “Don't talk tv the man at the ! wheel." will have to be changed to .

It la almost Impossible to imagine a 1 picture of the typical rugged seaman, i grim and determined, rain and sea water pouring from his oilskin coat ami sou' wester, buttling against the gale by tapping bls fingers on little buttons I set on the top of what looks like a steam radiator. In order to port the helm, the helmsman merely presses the appropriate button and an indicator needle tells him if he has sufficient swing on the veaaeL Should a sharper turn be necessary, other buttons may be pressed. There are similar buttons for putting • the helm to starboard. The Neva, which was hjuitt tn one of the former Imperial Russian naval yards, has a number of other devices, regarded by the old-time sailorman aa a positive nightmare.

MONEY STOLEN BY GYPSY RECOVERED Friday afternoon about 2 o’clock, .an automobile filled with gypsies {stopped in Syracuse, and two women I got out of the machine and com- | menced making calls at the various stores along Main stieet, begging. I The town marshal could not be located immediately to have them .put out ot town. When they entered Dr. Fred Clark's office, they found Ben Stillwell, 73, in the waiting room, and ; that the doctor was busy with anoth- ; er patient in his private office. According to Mr. Stillwell, they immediately began making motions i and touching him on various parts of j his body, saying words over him, I wishing him good luck and so forth. Mr. Stillwell said he kept his hand on his pocketbook, but one of them asked him what time it was. He involuntarily took his hand out of the pocket where his purse was, and pulled out his watch to tell them the lime. It must have been then he was robbed, but he didn’t realize it for a j lew moments. Hearing the disturbance in the waiting room, Dr. Clark came to ‘ the door, and seeing the gypsies, or- | dared them out immediately. Then he asked Mr. Stillwell if he had beer robbed, and he said no,, he didn't believe so, his purse was in his pocket. Dr. Clark advised him to open it—- ; which he did, to find the $4 he hac j had in the purse was gone. Or. searching through other pockets, he I discovered that papers which had j been in the purse had been put in ’ the pocket with his watch. Town Marshal Rentfrow was located soon afterwards, and he tele- ; phoned to other towns. The carload iof gypsies were stopped in Goshen, i and the car searched. The $4 was 1 found hidden in various parts of the tear, and removed, and the gypsiet i ordered out of town. Harry Porter took the town mar- x shal to Goshen, where the money was received from the police department, and brought back to Syracuse to Mr. Stillwell. OTO MEET IN WARSAW The district meeting of women’s ' federated clubs was held in Mishawai ka, and it was decided to hold next year’s meeting in Warsaw. All of the officers of the club were re-elected: Mrs. W. 1. Ellison of Warsaw was re-elected president; J Mrs. M. E.

THE SYRACUSE JOURNAL

• GARDEN NOTES • ♦ FOR APRIL * The earlier blooming perennials , will respond to an application of finely ground bone meal. This should be appl ed and spaded in as soon as the ' borders are uncovered. Bone meal is particularly beneficial ' in such materials as Peonies, Lark- ' surp and Roses. • Lawns should be rolled now. Care I should, be exercised in this, however ! to avoid rolling when the ground is 1 wet. When a handful of loam squeez- i es into a ball, the ground is too wet ’ for rolling the lawn. Use a roller weighing not more 1 than 250 pounds, roll x once and put 1 the roller away. The only purpose of the rolling is to press down the crowns which may j have been raised by the freezing and I thawing of winter and re-establish i contact between roots and soil. Level : depressions by legular half-inch top- ; diessings of lo?my compost. Spray Phßx, Hollyhocks and Larkspur with Bordeaux to keep down rust, mildew and other fungus infections. Apply as soon as the tops show above the ground and repeat at weekly intervals. ' , I Roses should be moved only when completely dormant. Early April will | be the last chance for this work. Cold frames in which flower seed ! has been sown must be carefully ven- • tilated. They must be inspected daily I during warm weather to insure that 1 1 a proper circulation of air exists to 1 reduce danger of “damping off." Move during mid-April, Japanese I Anemones, hardy Chrysanthemums, 1 1 and fall-blooming Asteis. Watch for seedlings in spading up i the flower borders in April. These < may be saved and used in filling spac-' ] es left by winter casualties. . China Asters should be sown in 11 cold frames in April. In the open ground may be sown L Digitalis, Verbena, Annual Larkspur, Marigold, Morning Glory and I Candytuft. The first pruning of hedges should ■ be done in April, before growth I starts. Shear all hedges so that the ! base is slightly wider than the top. o MARRIAGES ANNOUNCED Miss Helen O. Cornelius and Ro-! bert A. Fry, both of Columbia City, were united in marriage at the Evangelical parsonage, Sunday noon by Rev. R. G. Foust. The young people were former parishoners of . Rev. Foust when he preached at ; Columbia City. k The wedding of Miss Dorothy M. Replogle, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Replogle of Bethany, and' Mr. Howard Vorhis, son of Mrs. I I Frank Linderman, also of Bethany, I took place at 9 o’clock Easter morning at the home of the bride. I Rev. Amsy Clem, pastor of Bethany church performed the ceremony. A wedding breakfast was served to: George Troup of Osceola, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Linderman, Miss Ethel Vorhis, Miss Pauline Beard, Rev. A. Clem and wife. Announcement is being made of | the marriage of Miss Gladys Le- j | Count, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. , Gid LeCount, to Edgar Gordon of! Elkhart. They were marriedJSept. 14, in Bremen, and plan to make { their, home in Boyne City, Mich.

PLOW ADJUSTMENT TIPS GIVEN BY PURDUE MAN Plowing of the soil requires more of the farmer’s time and more horsepower than any o£her farm operation. Clean plowing is one of the best and most widely used methods of controlling the European Corn Borer. For effective borer control the plowed surface must be free of all trash and debris and should be buried deep enough to prevent its being brought to the surface by future tillage operations. Clean plowing also has many other advantages to commend it. To do its best work careful and accurate adjustments of, the plow are necessary, according to R. H. Wileman of Purdue University Agricultural Engineering Department. Although Wileman points out that because of the wide variation in types, sizes and styles iq plows, it is impossible to present briefly complete information on proper adjustments, he has compiled a short list of “hints” for plowmen designed to improve plowing efficiency, as follows: 1. The plow bottom is designed to do its best work when set to a depth equal to one-half its width. 2. The plow should be set to cut its normal width of furrow slice. 3. The normal position for a plow base is level. 4. The plow share should be kept in good condition at all times. 5. The jointer is often used clone on walkers and works very satisfactory in stubble Or short trash. 6. When plowing under long trash the use of a rolling ccuiter is essential to prevent clogging. j 7. The use of the combination i rolling coulter and jointer is very j desirable on all sulky and gang l plows. .8. The use of trash wires has been found to be a big help in covering corn stalks or other heavy trash. i.
