i DAIRY BY-PRODUCT' = ADDS TO SOIL FERTILITY I 1 ■ , Estimated Value To St. Joseph - County Is *IBO,OOO. St. Joseph countj- is richer yearly - ’ by SIBO,OOO because of the soil fei- - tility produced as a by product of = 1 dairying, according to a Creamery - i Institute. The figure is based ou data = resulting from many carefully kept E records on a considerable number of = farms. E • The average quantity of manure E recovered for use on crop lands in = the area studied was 7.4 tons per = ’ cow, and since the fertilizing value E of a ton of manure is $2.60 the by- = > product of each cow is apprixomately E twenty dollars. The application of- - figure to the 9,000 dairy cattle = in this county brings the total added E ■ value to thfc soil fertility here to the E । almost unbelievable figure given = above. — • In keeping with its better feeding ~ program the Institute estimates that = , from 25 percent to 50 percent great- = ler profit from each ton of feed can = be made by local farmers who milk - cows through improved feeding E methods, alone. This was demonstart E ed, it states, by the experiment re- E cently concluded by the Vniversitv E ।of Minnesota. The school’s dairy di- E vision about a year ago purchased - four average cows with available 5 records but without a scientific feed- = ing ration and by merely placing = them on a home-grown ration suit- = able to their needs, increased each = cow’s production almost forty . per = cent. |E Official Washington In A General Shift = Mr. Chas.

Radio Survey Makes Some Discoveries Chicago radio stations have , 4,500.000 regular listeners within a । radius of 250 miles of the city ac- ( cording to a survey Just completed > by Station Wl>S. Chicago. The sur- , vey Included personal interviews ; with over two thousand persons in . 32 cities within this radius and mail , questionaircs answered by four L thousand others in So places. Os the estimated fourteen million । people approximately 33 per cent . own radios or hear Chicago stations . on neighbors’ sets, tlje survey revealed. The survey further revealed the trend in programs d by radio listeners. Instrumental music is most popular, and is followed closely by vocal music, with a decided prefer--ence for male voices. • Farm and’ home programs also high, while radio plavs. readings, and speeches are favored in the order named. New Source of Water For State University Water is now being impounded in I the new Griffey Creek water system at Bloomington and the city will bel gin receiving water from this I source on or before Jan. 22. according to the engineers and contractors. This new system will have a capacity I estimated to meet the needs of Bloomington and Indiana university for 60 years at the present growth ‘ of the city and institution. The old water supply has been on the verge iof exhaustion several times this | winter and is providing only an intermittent supply at present. The ' university is furnishing -water to houses where students live from its ‘ own ample supply during the, few days intervening between the failure of the regular water supply from I the old system and the connecting up of the new Griffey Creek system. Interesting Radio Programs For Monday The relative merits of the child labor amendment will be discussed [ over the radio from Station WLS, ■on Monday, January 19, according ■ to an announcement from Chicago, i This announcement is of special imi portance in view of pending con- ; gressional action on this measure ‘ which is expected during the present I session. On that same night, Wm. Hard. ; noted newspaper correspondent, will give a talk on “Calvin Coolidge,’’ from station WCAP (469) Washington, D. C- Hard appeared before the South Bend Knife and Fork club in November and is one of the outstanding newspaper men of the day. Last Monday night he talked from station WCAP on “Washington by Day and Night.” His personal glimpses of our National characters are not only highly instructive but very interesting.

Great Skill Required in Training of Hawha Various kinds of hawks were trained for the purpose of falconry. Each bird had Its own style of flying and its own particular method of taking ’ the quarry, opinion as to which specific kind of hawk was tiie best being divided. But of them all non* was more generally popular than the noble peregrine— a first-rate flyer, docile, tractable and extremely courageous, says Capt. C. W. 11. Knight, M. C, in the pa rime which once played so great a part In the Ilves of the English, and to which reference is made in the worss of such authors as Shakespeare and Scott. For grouse hawking the female, be 1 ing a heavier, stronger tdrd than the male, is generally used, for she is bet- [ ter fitteu to lake ui»d hold a strong > old cock grouse. She it Is who is , called “falcon." the male being known as the ’tiercH" because he is one l t third less in size than the female. The art of falconry consists in i»er--1 Minding a naturally fierce, wild bird I to ►a, for her owner exactly what she would <)<. in any case In the wild -late—in short to display at close 1 quarters the amazing powers of flight 1 with ulrich she has been (quipped by I nature. if she should be so successful in her .'light as so strike her quarry, she dispatches it immediately—and in most ' professional manner—a sharp bite at I tin- ba^ of the skull and it is afl | over. On the other hand, if the hawk i fails to come up with her quarry—is perhaps oatflown, beaten in the air—she fails completely. The intended victim disappears, doubtless rejoicing, into the blue, and ft is up to the disconsolate falconer to recover his । erring charge as soon as he can. Farmer Has Advantage Over Dweller in City It is a common complaint that the ; far» and farm life are not appreci- | ated by our people. We long for more 1 i elegant pursuits, or the ways and • fashions of the town. But the farmer i . has the most sane and natural occu I ; pation ami ought to find life sweeter. ■ ! if less highly .seasoned, than any oth- ] er. He alone, strictly speaking, has ; a home. How can a man take root and thrive j without land? He writes his history ■ । upon his field. How many ties, how many resources, he has —bis friend- ' ships with his cattle, his team, his | dog. his trees, the satisfaction in his growing crops, in his improved fields: . his intimacy with Nature, with bird ■ j and beast, and with the quickening ' > elemental forces; his co-operation with i the clouds, the sun, the seasons, heat, i ! wind, rain, frost! Nothing will take the various social i distempers which the city and arti- j ficial life breed out of a man like j farming, like direct and loving contact j I with the soil. It draws out the poi I son. It humbles him, teaches him pa- j tience and reverence, and restores the ' proper tone to his system.—John Bur- ' roughs. Germans Will Pay i i The United States was given an allocation of 4 5 million gold marks ' a year as her part of the German payments, the officials announced semi-officially. i It is estimated that it will require 17 years to exhaust the American claims at this rate. This will pay the cost of occupation of the Rhine by American troops. • According to the terms the United States gets two and a quarter per cent of the annual reparations. However this is limited to the sum of 4 5 million marks. >
