GROWTH OF THE FARMERS
INSTITUTE.
No Way of Accurately Telling the
Benefits of This Organization.

The growth of the farmers insti-
tute movement in the United States
during the last decade has been
steady In the season OF 1923 there
were held $50 sessions of institutes
in III States, as compared with 20
640 sessions held in 1928. The at
tendance in 1923 was 904,654; in
1928 it was 1897 ,39l at the regular
institutes. The increase in attend
ance at each session was 40 per cent,
or from an average of 94.53 to al.
The appropriations increased from
$lS7, 226 to $5l0.7S4.
During the past year, notwithstand-
ing the large growth of the extension
movement by the agricultural col
leges the regular institutes have in
creased in attendance 346, 1872 and in
the average number per session from
l3l to l4l.
Although institutes we're held by
all of the States and Territories in
1913 excepting Louisiana. Nevada,
Alaska and Porto Rico. returns have
been receivJ from only Al as against
IS last year. The States not report
ing held 1888 sessions in 1912, attended
by 34,o74 persons. If these States have

FEED CHARCOAL TO YOUR
SWINE.
One of the Cheapest and Best Pre-
ventive of Disease.

Charcoal is one of the cheapest of
disease preventives that can be fed to
hogs. 1t is especially valuable in win
ter, whether the animals are in the
fattening pens or in the wood lot.
Charcoal can be bought, but this
takes away the cheahness. 1t can be
burned on he farm, nd the burning
takes but very litt. Sle or labor.
Green or dry timbs georn cobs or
heavy brush can be Fined into char
coal. R
The method | have8used for good
many years is very simple. Along in
the fall and winer. when | need more
charcoal for the hogs, | dig a trench
somewhere between and 10 feet in
length | make it about three feet
wide and about as deep as it is wide,
says Missouri writer in the Farm
Progress. If POSSIBLE, | burn the
charcoal in the woods lot near the
timber. that am using as this saves
the time and trouble of hauling the
wood
Pile the trench full of wood, putting
in enough dry timber to start it
blazing we'll Arrange the timber so
you can start the fire near the center
of the trench and at the bottom of the
heap, SO the fire will spread upwards
and to either Ade through the logs.
Let ii blaze pretty strongly, and al
low enough Roadway to reach all
parts of the heap | want every stick
in the pile be ablaze before | pro-
coed with the next step.
| use big sheets of iron to cover
over the trench after it is thoroughly
| fcly nH
up three or four old scraper bottoms,
thick. heavy iron plates about forty
eight inches in width. ] use these to
cover the trench, laying them edge to
edge. and stopping the places where
they overlap, with wet clay. This
keeps all the heat in, and the process
of slow burning can go on underneath
them. A little gaseous smoke and
some of the heat escapes, but most OF
it remains under the plates.
let this iron-lidded pit stand for a
day or two before removing the
plates. | hardly ever fail to find about
a wagon-bed full of fine charcoal when
] open it.
The use of the sheet iron plates
seems to smother the fire just enough
to keep it from burning SO freely as
to DESTROY all the wood fiber, and yet
gives it enough leeway to permit a
slow combustion. OF coure. if the
pit is opened too soon the blaze will
leap up again. and all the work will
be for nothing.
In turning corn cobs into charcoal ]
follow about the same method as
when turning timber into charcoal
They are placed in the pit, started to
blazing, and then checked by being
sealed up under the sheet iron They
char in about the same time as tim
Der
AS a mineral element in hog rations
charcoal is hard to beat. 1t is espe-
cially valuable in stimulating the ap-
tracts fthe animals from various
petite. and in freeing the intestinal
disturbances.

PRESCOTT FILM HAS
 FAMILIAR FACES
Actors Who Played in Stock Here
 Now Shown on Screen.

one of those Lubin pictures which appeal more particularly to Phoenix people than to any other theater- gOers, is being shown at the Elm press Theater just now as a part of the excellent bill of that house Un- fortunately the picture will run to- night for the last time. It drew two crowded houses last evening and scores of people were turned away
 Chief White Eagle" is the title of the picture being shown. The local interest lies in that not only is the picture acted in Arizona, but there are at least half a dozen people talk ing part in the action of the pho toplay who are known here person ally.
 Robert Adair and Miss Ryan, who were here with the Worlds Fair Stock Company, taking leading parts in the plot" Robin Williamson, who was here with his wife in the same company with Adair, and later with the Dietrich Stock Company, is also seen in the moving pictures, as is also his wife. George Clancy, who has been seen on the Phoenix stage several times, once in stock, and later in company with his wife as vau- deville team, smiles out across the screen. And last but not least, Man ager Fielding. who was here recent ly arranging for the coming of a Luhin company to Phoenix, and who will probably be here again within a few days, takes the part of the Chief White Eagle.
 A pretty story of the strong love oi an Indian brave for white flirt, his l awakening, his revenge and the pen
 aIty, are developed, and an interesting and pleasing film results.

FREIGHT RATES REDUCED
Decision Forces Railroads To Refund
Overcharges

The recent decision by the United
States Supreme Court on the Mime
sofa Rate Cases reduced the freight
rates on intra-state traffic and also
forces the railroads to refund over
charges on intra-state business to
shippers who can show freight bills
to prove their contention. 1t is advisi-
able to send in the claims as soon as
possible as there is only a limited
time before they will be outlawed.
Further information regarding

make a speciality of collecting freight
claims and overcharges. They are

MEN BUY LAND
Purchase Tract Bordering Bass Lake
Erect Hotel

e. E. Ferguson, who resembles Bob
LaFollette and who is a strong sup
porter of that gentleman, together
with William Renica both of Geneva,
Nebraska, have purchased a tract of
land which has 900 feet of frontage
on Bass Lake. These gentlemen plan
to build model home and develope
their land into an ideal farm. They
also plan to open up the creeks sur
rounding Bass Lake and build a
canoe route which will prove an at
traction to summer resorters. Frank
Steiner has opened a hotel on the
banks of the lake and the farmers in
that vicinity are planning to erect a
building which will be used for CO.
operative store. The idea appears to
be is to start thriving village on
the banks of this lake which is one of
the most attractive of it's size in Nor
thern Minnesota.
