$3.50 Per Acre Profit in Iowa Oats.

A net profit of $3.50 per acre on
oats is shown in the experiments con-
Quoted in 1912 by the Four County
Grain Improvement association, whose
report was recently made to the Iowa
department of agriculture. The as
ISOLATION held it's grain show in Ack-
ley, Iowa, in January and the results
of the experiments were there shown.
The counties in the organization are
Hardin, Franklin, Butler and Grundy.
In these experiments it was found
that the average cost of growing a
bushel of oats was 171ac and that it
took thirty-eight bushels per acre to
pay for the cost of growing.
The following is an average of all
reports received from those conduct
ing the experiments in these counties.
Seed per acre, 81 bushels; weight
per bushel, So pounds; cost OF seed
per acre, $1.75; average yield per acre,
53A bushels; cost of crop per acre,
$1,000; value of oats per acre, $17.O0;
value of straw per acre, $500; total
value of crop, $4,000. Net profit per

Washington News Exchange Letter.

Washington. D. c., Feb. 2O-Pres-
Ident Taft has held series of special
cabinet meetings over the Mexican
situation: and it is announced that
the administration believes in hay
ing troops ready for an emergency in
case congress decides that hostile in
yasion of Mexico is necessary. But
the president is determined that no
such step shall be taken unless abso-
lutely necessary.
Appropriate services in memory OF
those who lost their lives fifteen
years ago by the destruction Of the
Maine were held last week in Ar
fington cemetery, over the graves OF
those buried there.
It now seems that the getting to-
xether process of the republican party
will not be from the top, but from the
bottom. Not the leaders, but the rank
and file will be the agents to work
the cementing of the party organiza-
ton.
A dinner in honor of Uncle Joe
Cannon, retiring speaker of the house,
was one of the greatest politico-social
functions of the season. Fom far

honor, and fairly buried him under
an avalanche of praise, congratula-
tons and farewell blessings. Presi-
dent Taft was present and made an
address. The chief justice of the
United States also made a short
speech and by doing so broke an age
old custom observed by former chief
justices of not speaking at political
gatherings.

WHAT NORMAL BOY MEASURES.
Table Worked Out From Statistics of
Baby Show Held at the Iowa
State Fair, 1912.

Des Moines, Feb. 19-Physicians in
charge of the judging and scoring of
the Baby Show" at the 1912 Iowa
State fair have worked out table
which shows what the normal physical
development of the child should be at
ages varying from one to three years.
They have recently made report to
the Iowa State Board of Agriculture
in which this table is given and their
findings at the contest of the state
fair are shown. In arriving at their
figures they used not only the ones
obtained in their own contest, but sta
tistics compiled from other baby shows
held in various parts of the country.
At the 1912 show held at the Iowa
state fair 166 children were entered
in the contests. Their ages varied
from twelve months to three years.
There were 81 boys and IS girls. One
hundred and ten children were from
cities of more than 5000 inhabitants;

Pure Bred Horses Increase in Iowa

Something of the improvement of
the horse industry of Iowa is indicat.
ed in the figures compiled by Secre.
tary Corey of the Iowa Department of
Agriculture in his first annual report
on the stallion registration division
of the department. Seventy per cent
of the stations of Iowa are now pure
bred. In Illinois 81 per cent are pure
bred and in Wisconsin So per cent
come under that classification. Min
nesota records show that 355 per cent
of the stations are pure bred.

acted by the Thirty-fourth general as
sembly and it's purpose was to retire
from public service all stations af-
fected with certain specified heredi-
tary, contagious or transmissible dis
eases and to give to the patrons or
purchasers of all stations or jacks a
reliable source of information as to
whether or not stations were of pure
breeding, or whether they were sound
or unsound. The first year of it's OPP
GRAFTON indicates that it is accomplish
ing it's purpose.
Secretary Corey shows in his report
that, for the period from Jan. 1, 1912,
to December 31st, there were enrolled
by the department 5,679 pure bred
stations and 50 pure bred jacks; 2,493
certificates of soundness were issued
for 2,449 grade stations and 521 GER
tifcates of soundness for grade jacks
In this period sixty-eight stations
were disqualified for public service
on account of being affected with
disease which comes under the ban
of the law. OF this number thirty-four
were disqualified for bone and bog
SPAWN, fifteen for blindness nine for
cataract, seven for periodic ophthal-
mia. Thus it is seen that by far the
larger number were disqualified for
bone and bog SPAWN.
These figures do not show the total
number of diseased stations retired
from public service during the past
year. "a number of owners" says
