They Were Not Helped.

The Rev. DR.. Aked. at a farewell
dinner in New York, said of an over
jealous missionary:
Neither with the heather nor with
our own people does it do to advo-
cate religion on mercenary grounds.
Il know a manufacturer who, last
Easter, told all his hands that he
would pay them if they went to
church. Accordingly the hands all
went, and fine, brave show they
made. The manufacturer, scanning
their ranks from his pew, swelled with
joy and pride.
But, after the service, a foreman
approached and said:
Boss, the fellers want me to ask
you, if we come to church again to
night, do we get overtime?"

with the knowledge that their
knowledge of dressmaking makes

grounds. 1t also may be transmitted
by earth carried by man and farm an
finals. Water readily carries smut,
or dust blown from an infected field
may communicate the disease. Smut
ted onions, unfit for market, are often
placed with refuse, and then upon ma
-nure piles and later distributed over
the fields. thus scattering the. disease.
When the disease is one in the
ground short rotations do not material,
ly check it. In particular field, bad
ly smutted, the order OF planting had
been clover for two years and corn
one year. Neither will a fiye-year TO-
tation eliminate the disease according
to the growers of eastern Iowa.
The various methods of treatment
are recommended In Scott county
the growers have found it effective to
transplant onion sets grown in bed
of soil free from the disease. This,
however, is laborious process. Mr..
Schutter of Scott county has for six
years used forpaline successfully, one
pound TO 70 or 50 gallons OF water,
and applied with drip attachment on
the seed drill at the rate of 500 to 700
gallons of the solution to an acre.
Some growers use lime and sulphur,
which should be applied in drills;
when lime and sulphur are sown,
broad cast in the field they appear to
have no effect on the smut. For prop
or treatment the soil should be in ex-
cellent condition. If 1t is not in a
good state of filth the results are not
SO good. Care should be taken that
the drip works we'll and allows the for
maline solution to flow properly into
the rows of onions.
Bulletin No. 131 also gives infor-
nation concerning several other new
fungous diseases in Iowa.
Audubon County journal. (Exira, Iowa) 1884-1993, 1912-10-03

In the past few years onion grow
ers have suffered severe losses from
new fungous disease known as onion
smut. Sometimes the losses have
gone as high as so per cent of the
crop and infrequently the loss has
been total In some cases where the
disease has been most serious the
onion growing has been abandoned,
but It is not necessary to. give.blup
onion growing because Of the attack
of this disease. 1t can be checked by
treating fields with formaline and with
such treatment the yields will be very
satisfactory. Mr. F. Schutter of Scott
county reported that in 1910 he got a
yield of 500 bushels per acre from a
lot which had been treated with for
maline, whereas from the untreated
plot he got only $50 bushels Of inferior

Autumn Care Of the Colt.

The mistake is often made of not
feeding the young colt enough, espe-
cially during the autumn. To make
big, drafty animal he must get plen-
ty of feed at the growing period. Too
many men expect mare to do big
days work and also provide for her
foal A moderate amount of work for
the mare and liberal feeding after the
colt learns to eat will produce results.
In August when the pasture is short
and dry and the flies bad, the horse
man has opportunity to try his skill in
feeding and management. II he il
Indifferent to these things he cannot
expect an animal that will go on The

onions per acre. He believes in the
efficiency of formaline for treating
this disease.
The disease is first indicated by sew
eral dark spots on the leaves of seed
lings, which are readily seen when
held up to the light; later the pus-
tules show. These are, at first, COW
cred by a membrane, which breaks
and exposes the spores which are
blackish The affected leaf soon dies.
If the plant Is able to survive, pus-
tules develop on other leaves and even
on the bulbs where 1t occurs on the
outer scales; sometimes the feshy
scales of the mature onion are discol-
ored The spores occur in clusters or
spore balls. IA
It appears reasonably certain that the
disease is not generally spread by the
seed, although occasionally it may be
introduced in that way. 1t is certain
that smut is spread with agricultural
implements to which the smut spores

Solving the Beef Raising

1.-The old.time cattle feeding bust
ness has gone to smash at least SO
far as | am concerned" said a vet
eran feeder, C. w. Hunt of Logan,
Harrison county, Iowa Cheap feed
er cattle and cheap feed are both
things of the past. With the ranges
mostly broken up into farms and the
rest fast going the same road, there
is little chance of ever again getting
cheap feeders from the west, as we
used to get them.
And yet, from the looks of the sit
uation now, with a beef demand at
least thirty per cent. bigger than the
supply, there will be money in staying
in the beef business OF course we
can go on as most of us have been do
ing, getting few native feeders and a
few western steers and make little
beef and perhaps little money. But
there's not enough of that sort of
business to round. The only way out
of the difficulty that can see for the
most of us to go on raising our own
feeders.
II know they shout 'high-priced
land at us, and say 1t can't be done
on 500 or $3.50 an acre land. But
know it can, for it is being done. Look
at the English and Scotch farmers
They raise straight beef cattle on land
that is worth from six to ten times
what ours is. They grow beef on land
that rents for the same money ours
sells for and still make money at it.
But they don't do it by raising scrub
cattle and not paying any attention to
them.
There are Illinois farmers within
80 miles of Chicago raising cattle
just plain beef cattle--to sell on the
Chicago market, and paying for $500
land doing it, At the same time they
are making $3.50 land out of this 5000
land. Yes, l know I've been talking
about England and, Scotland and Hi
nois, but / don't have to go SO far
from home. II.
Take Fred Frazier. just mile
south of Logan. He keeps 80 grade
| Angus cows and a pure bred Angus
bull. He raises rs OF more calves
every year and feeds them right out.
He has sold the last three crops at
Audubon County journal. (Exira, Iowa) 1884-1993, 1912-10-03

| from ~ to IA months old for an av-
erage c. nearly $55 head. He had
used only 40 acres each year to pas
ture his COWS and their calves. The
calves have fattened on home grown
alfalfa, corn and grass. The cows
have lived on grass and corn stalks
mostly, with little alfalfa help now
and then. Those COWS and calves
have made money every year; more
money than the Omaha steers he has
fed every winter Fred says himself,
money invested and work considered.
| Another man right here in Logan
who has made money in beef in just
the same way is Dan Ford He's a
good judge and good feeder, of
course, but the main reason he is
making money is that he is raising
good cattle. Neither one OF these
men have silos, either, and siiage helps
lot in cutting down the cost of win
tering cows and of growing calves. 4
I'm going into the beef production
business myself, or rather my sons
are, and there are hundreds Of old
feeders all over the state who are do
! ing just the same thing for the same
reasons. A lot more of we old fellows
will go out Of business because we are
toosold to change our ways. Its not
because we don't see what's coming
though.
We're not bit scared of Cutting
the market or of an oversupply of
beef. 1t takes from five to ten years
to make much change in the numbers
of beef cattle In this country. For
the last seven or eight years they
have have grown gradually scarcer SO
that 1t is safe guess that the supply
can't anywhere near catch up with
the demand in less than ten years.
The only thing that keeps people from
eating more beef now is that there is
not more beef to eat and the price
makes 1t almost prohibitive With
clover, alfalfa silage and better beef
cattle there's going to be more beef
and better beef produced hight here,
in Iowa as time goes on, and there is
going to be money made at it even on
5000 land. What's more, it will help
bring on that 5000 value, and help
keep it worth the money"
