The Wisconsin Bankers Association
is doing great deal for education, es-
pecially for farm education throughout
the state. The association has in many
ways assisted in carrying out plans
that have been beneficial, which could
not have been carried out without their
assistance. The Seed corn special"
was made possible by the Bankers of
the state and our local Bankers have
well assisted in making local arrange
ments. The Bankers o! the city have
also offered prizes for the corn brought
in by the boys for exhibit purposes. A
great stride in advance along the line
of pure seeds has been made in the
past few years, and | ain sure that the
schools through the boys who have
been receiving and planting pure
seed are entitled to some credit. The
cash prizes offered 10y the Bankers
will do much to encourage our boys TO
planting better seed, so that they may
show by actual demonstration that
better seed means better and larger
crops.

POULTRY HOUSE
FOR THE BACK YARD

The only house that is suited for
poultry Is one with q dry interior. No
one can succeed in keeping hens that
produce eggs IL they are kept in houses
that have damp floors and therefore
damp interiors or In houses that are
not clean and thus more or less infect
ed with insect verinin. says the West
ern Poultry Journal. Wherever there
Is dampness within a house the hens
will suffer from cold, the floors will be
filthy, the interior of the house will be
unfit for tho hens to live in, and insect
vermin Will grow quickly under such
conditions.
Sunlight fresh air and perfect dry
ness are essential for success In poul.
try keeping. They are the surest rene
dies against disease. The hens that
are kept under such conditions are apt
to be profitable, whereas those that
are kept under adverse conditions are
