Diamond Oil for Incubators.

The Paragon Oil Co., of Tacoma,
started in two years ago as an in
dependent company to build reputa-
tion for pure oils. They seem to
have succeeded beyond their expecta-
tions. Their list includes illuminat-
ing oils, gasoline auto oils, lubricat-
ing oils and greases and a number Of
specialties. Here is what Fred H.
johnson, the noted poultryman of
Tacoma, says about their Diamond
Oil for incubator lamps:
Tacoma, Wash, Dec. II, 1911.
Paragon Oil Co.. Tacoma, WASH,
Gentlemen:-We have been using
your Diamond Oil'' for the past two
seasons and it gives us great pleasure
to report that it has given perfect
satisfaction. ~
We have tried various brands of
oils, but we have not found any oil
that has given us such good satisfac-
ton as the Diamond Oil. 1t is odor-
less and gives an even heat which is
necessary for incubation work.
In conclusion will say that we will
use Diamond Oil' only hereafter.
Yours very truly,

Berkshire Swine Catalog.

Charles M. Talmadge of Silver Birch
Farm, Newport, Washington, has sent
to The Ranch his annual catalogue of
Berkshire hogs. Mr.. Talmadge is
Offering some fine stock. Many of
his animals are direct descendants OF
the fine herd of LOvejoy q Son of
Roscoe, Illinois. This farm is noted
for it's prize winning animals, being
one of the greatest Bekshire farms in
the world. He also has fine collec-
ton from the Farmers Farm OF
Pennington, Minnesota, another great
Berkshire farm. Practically all Of
his offerings are either prize winners
or direct descendants of prize winners
in the great live stock shows of the
west. Mr.. Talmadge has some fine
registered Jersey cattle which are a
credit to that great breed. He says,
however, that he has no registered
stock for sale at present His hogs
are all registered stock and he has a
choice herd to select from. Lovers of
the great Berkshire breed OF hogs
should correspond with Mr.. Talmadge
if they desire to purchase any stock
this spring.

New Worlds Record.

When Joe Wolter, the Chicago
rider, established new worlds record
ten miles by travelling that distance
on a motorcycle in six minutes and
fifty-fOur seconds at the Oakland
motordrome a few days ago. he caused
a nation to gasp with establishment
and people are now asking il there is
any limit to the speed a man may
travel on two wheels and still retain
control of his machine and possession
of his senses. Students of physics
agree that an unobstructed body falls
l6 feet the first second, 80 feet the
next and so on, but it is supposed
that this acceleration has some limit,
and the same principle may apply to
motorcycle speeding.
Not only the rider and his engine
but every piece of his equipment
must be constructed to stand such a
pace and in a brief letter to the Good
year Tire q Rubber Company OF
Akron, o.. Wolter gives due credit to
the Blue Streak tires with which his
Excelsior machine was equipped. He
modestly states that he ''made some
very fast time and the tires stood up
In great STYLE" Certain it is that
until the advent of these tires COM
paratively short time ago no such
speed had ever been attained by these
machines
Until few days ago the ten mile
record was held by Jake DeRosier who

on Blue Streaks, made the distance

Practical Poultry Book Free

One of the brightest and MOST practi-
Cal poultry books ever produced on
the Pacific Coast has just reached our
office from the press OF the Chas. II.
Lilly Co. This book is edited by Mr..
Ralph B. Randall, one of the leading
poultry experts of America, and pre-
vlously of England.
Some of the leading articles to be
found among it's voluminous pages
are the "Care of Chicks" "The
Development of Young Stock, "
"Breeds, "Feeding of Poultry, "
Feeding for Eggs "Fattening for
Market" "Poultry Houses" "Poul-
try Ills,' 'tArtiicial Incubation, "
etc.
The cover page, which is most at
tractive, is drawing from the pen OF
that clever poultry artist, Mr.. Frank
lane HI. Sewell.

is sending this out free to all who
write and ask them for copy.

the Packer illustrated above is run
at right angles to the prevailing wind
it prevents in great measure the
soil from blowing as it leaves the top
soil compact and in ridges about two
and three quarter inches apart. The
hollow space between the ridges con-
tains dead air and the current OF air
above holds it in place and supports
the edges on the same principle that
water in little bayou on the border
of swift current is always still held
as it is in place by the pressure OF
the stream.
Farmers who have used this i'm
plement as a method of preventing
soil blowing will testify that it is
very effective. The Packer shown
above is manufactured by the Dun
ham Company of Berea, Ohio, who
will be glad to mail catalogue showing
a very complete line of Soil Packers
and in many styles to conform to the
different soil conditions.

Tool Sharpening Now Easy.

Tool sharpening has been trans
formed from grindstone slavery to
quick, easy work through the dis
covery of the artificial diamond
sharpening substances and the perfect
ing of grinding machines. The most
conspicuous example is the new
Luther foot and engine power tool
grinder. This grinder has grinding
wheels of the new artificial diamond
sharpening substance, Dino Grit.
This is the best abrasive for steel,
leaving the smoothest, keenest edge.
1t is ten times more efficient than
emery wheels, twenty-five times
faster than grindstones and will not
draw temper. The Luther Farm
Grinder is built completely of steel
and iron, has enclosed shaft drive
like an automobile and dust-proof
bearings. Patent tool tests and at
tachments enable inexperienced per-
sons to do difficult grinding such as

presented free to the public, so IL is
with particular congratulations to
The Studebaker Corporation of South

call it an "Almanac' but it is not

of research and study and time and

though the concern is liable to be

Mind Medicine.

An expert Investigator who was
gathering statistics as to the health
of the average American farmer as
compared with that of his city
brother recently remarked:
"Our farmers need no medicine for
their bodies Fresh air attends to
that for them. What lot of them
need is mind medicine"
The Investigator did not mean to
imply that American farmers are
stupid. On the contrary he meant
that they are so keen minded and
alert that they are everywhere reach
ing out for the means for mental
growth and relaxation. The investi-
gator wished to convey, rather, that
too many American farmers are lack
ing in the tools and instruments OF
mental activities. He asserted that
such sturdy specimens of ability and
manhood as the American farmers
should speedily equip themselves for
mind growth as we'll as body-growth.
He sa id 'mind medicine because
he wanted to express his view that to
a man who works long and hard with
hands and body. mental relaxation is
really an up-building tonic, the best
kind of medicine.
Farmers who own Victor talking
machines will tell you that this in
vestigator knew what he was talking
about. They will tell you that a
Victor, with it's many different re-
cords, has given them refreshment
and rest which nothing else could
give them. They will assure you that
the "mind medicine which the
Victor has certainly been to them is
better than all other forms OF
"tonics.'
1t is very easy to see why this Is
so. Everything that the human mind
can devise in the way of sound en-
tertainment is reproduced on the
Victor. The most highly developed
brains of the world-the foremost men
and women in each given department.
have been marshalled to give their
best to the Victor records.
Not even the crowned heads OF
Europe, all of whom possess and con-
stantly use Victor talking machines,
are more privileged in this respect
than the remote farmer. He can pick
out the same Victor record as they
from the assortment of thousands of
tunes, songs and so on. Their Victor
plays no better than his, and the
artists of the world have achieved
their creations on Victor records for
the farmer as we'll as for the kings
and emperOrs.
Every man needs the sort of ''mind
medicine which comes with fine
music, high art, and keen wit. The
'tVictor tonic' is about the most
healthful and pleasant which could
be prescribed in answer to the COM
plant of the expert investigator.

can be prevented if proper remedy is
applied.
There are, of course, various
methods, such as planting trees,
shrubbery, etc.. as a wind break.
Another item is binding together
of soil particles by moisture and
humus. In this connection we wish
to say the use of a soil packer or
corrugated roller will greatly aid In
the prevention of soil blowing and il

tachments transform it into a black
smith forge, jig saw, sheep shearer,
etc. This perfected grinder takes the
drudgery out of tool grinding and
with the extra attachments is one of
the most useful machines ever built
for the farmer, mechanic, carpenter
and every other tool user.

workingmen are organized in the
Christian labor union, which con-
tains about $50, 600 members, while
the association is said to have only
about 10000. The Christian unions
are not exclusively Catholic, though
by far the larger part of their mem
bers belong to that church. Their
chief aim to to oppose socialism, and
they regard it as necessary to admit
Protestants In order to have the
best support in that direction. In
this point they have the support of
the clerical party. The association.
however. strongly condemns the in
ter-dencminational character of the
unions and demands that labor or
CARNATIONS be fully under the con-
troll of the Catholic church; and a
wing of the clerical party called the
t'Berlin movement" supports this
view.
Friction has been growing be-
tween the two labor organizations.
and still more between the two cor
responding wings of the centrum.
Only recently Herr Roeren. one Of
