Il. Preparing sheaf exhibits of
grain.
Select desirable heads just as the
grain enters the yellow ripe stage.
Choose well-filled heads that you
think will make good representative
showing for the type of grain which
you desire to exhibit. Cut the straw
as close to the ground as possible so
you can exhibit full length of straw.
Make up sample of not to exceed 200
heads. Tie with some soft cloth or
narrow ribbon just under the heads,
at butts and in center of bundle and
place in darkened room to cure or
ripen off. When time permits care
full work, unite the bundle, spread
out, moisten straws by sprinkling and
carefully strip all adhering leaves
from the straws. With soft cloth
polish each straw. Now, neatly tie
up the bundle with baby ribbon, or
any narrow ribbon OF appropriate COL
or, tying firmly, yet neatly, in at least
three or four places upon the bundle.
See that all heads are evenly placed,
making one compact, circular bush.
This is very important. Do not use
string in tying bundles of grain. The
string is liable to cut the straws when
they become dry. See that each sam
pie is neatly and accurately labeled,
wrap in some thin, soft cloth and put
where it will be suspended in free
current of air, but in a dry and out

forage.
Select the most leafy types to be
found in the field. Get best and most
erect individual specimen obtainable.
Cut them as close to the ground as
possible. Put in a loose bundle, not
more than four or five inches in dia-
meter and loosely wrapping in news
paper, or better still thin porous
cloth; hang in the dark to cure. To
retain its color, forage sample must
be dried or cured in the dark away
from the sun but with plenty of dry
air. When we'll cured, select the in
dividual stems that have rtained the
best leaves with their leaf color and
make up exhibit bundles of 3k to
inches in diameter. Do not strip
single leaf or branchlet from the stem
since we are to show for forage value
and want to retain all the leaves pos
sible. Timothy, bronze grass, orchard
grass, millet and other grass samples
are spoiled for forage samples by
stripping. Tie in a neat manner with
narrow ribbon, fastening bundle Sc

Boys and Girls of Colorado to Help
Prepare Exhibits for the
Dry Farm Congress
Denver, Colorado, July 31.-(Spe-
cial Prof. w. HI. Olin, vice-presi-
dent of the Dry Farming Congress has
called upon the boys and girls of Col
orado to prepare exhibits for the In
ternational Dry Farming Exposition
which will be held at Billings, Mon
tana, October 1929, inclusive. In
connection with the Fourth Dry
Farming Congress, which will be in
session October 1928, Prof. Olin has
issued the following instructions for
preparing exhibits
This year Colorado has good pros
poets of representative crop. Can
we interest the boys and girls on Col
orado farms in taking crop samples
for exhibit purposes? To those liv-
! ing on non-irrigated farms the Dry
Farming Congress, to be held at Bill
ings, Montana, next October, extends
a very earnest call to send personal
exhibits for the Congress. The Ma
tional Corn Exposition to be held in
Omaha next December urges all
young people on both irrigated and
non-irrigated farms to save samples
Of the farm grains, forage, and
grasses, for the National exposition.
1--WE are anxious for Colorado boys
and girls to make good showing
and herewith send suggestions on pre-
pairing samples. 1t is urged that boys
and girls in every agricultural section
of the state try to secure a showing
for their neighborhood in the Junior
Department Of this great farm exhi-
bit.A
@"""1. Preparing forage and grass
samples. Cut the sample when in best
condition for hay or feed. Cut close
to the ground, leave all leaves on
stalk and dry your samples in the
shade away from the sun. Tie with
cloth, not with string since latter will
cut and break the stems. With alfal-
ia, take sample from each cutting
where possible. Make each forage
sample az inches in diameter when
dried. Be careful to keep sample
loose until well cured. Cut timothy
when heads are in bloom and select
for longest heads and best and most
leaves per ton.

ECZEMA LODGES IN The SKIN
Not Blood Disease Cured by OIL Of
Wintergreen Compound.

For many years eczema was sup
posed to be blood disease and was
enormously treated as such, but now
the best authorities agree that eczema
is only skin disease, and must be
cured through the skin. The eminent
skin specialist, DR.. d. D. Dennis, first
discovered the eczema germ, and his
discovery was quickly taken up in
Germany and France.
To kill the eczema germ, and at the
same time heal the skin, DR.. Dennis
compounded oil of wintergreen, thymol
glycerine, etc. The remedy is liquid,
not mere salve, hence it sinks right
into the pores of the skin. Washing
with this oil Of wintergreen compound
seems to take away the itch at once;
soon the scales drop away and the dis
ease disappears. The prescription has
now been used so long as to have prov.
en- its absolute merit, and we do not
hesitate to express our confidence in

can maintain the gait or not remains

opinion that he is playing ahead of his

ficient to warrant it. If he falls down
Fenlon will get his chance.
This is the latest dope on the team.
Cooley himself expresses the opinion
that he is greatly pleased with the out

days I feel greatly relieved about my
team for this season. l think it will be
good one and a creditable one for
our first season in the Western league.
You can't buy players that are stars in
a class A field. You have to get the
youngsters of promise and develop
them, and use a couple of old heads to
balance the team. That is what am
trying to do this season. 1 hope to
finish high in the race and will bend
every effort in that direction, even

beginning with this game, he will place

he now knows them. The batting order
will be the same one and arranged in
the way it will start the season. And

Pitcher Glae that enabled the Column

as If he was clearly in the wrong.
Glaze, to all appearances, turned his
ankle, which caused him to lose his
balance and make a false motion with
his hand. Owens Immediately sent
Odwen from first to second base on
a balk ruling. After the game, when
Owens was informed that Glaze had
turned an ankle. he retorted that it
was up to the pitcher to avoid losing
his balance
