MORE PROFIT FOR PRODUCER
Missouri Farm Demonstrator Has Plan
to Cut Out Middle Man, Selling
Direct to Consumer.

A recent communication from a
farm demonstrator Of Missouri opens
up a field of considerable interest to
the live stock man. This wide awake
demonstrator is attempting to put his
feeders in direct touch with the pro-
ducers of live stock. He was inquiring
for the names of sheep men who would
be able to ship rather large number
of lambs this fall. II the producers
and feeders can divide the profits of
the middle man, the money thus OBJ
tanned Is like so much clear gain.
Every producer should be anxious
to cut out the leaks between the pro.
duction and the consumption of his
product. By doing this he assures him.
self Of a greater profit, and at the
same time markets his product at q
lower final cost to the consumer. Such
savings are indeed true economy.

DIVERSITY CROPS IN SOUTH
As Good Land a. Can Be Found Any
where In Country-Climate All
That Could Be Desired.

There can be no question that the
crop campaign begun in the South as
a result of the acute cotton situation
a few months ago is going to have last
ing beneficial results" said Capt. A B.
Rich of Birmingham, Ala. while in
Washington the other day. "A sys-
tematic campaign was begun by the
Birmingham chamber Of commerce,
and is now being carried on. The
farmers Of Jefferson county, Alabama.
are alive to the situation, and already
have announced their conversion. II
this is done throughout the South the
way to independence and prosperity is
open.
There Is as good la I'D in the south
ern states as can be found anywhere
in the country, and the climate Is all
that could be desired for the raising Of
all kinds of crops.
Il know of one farm not far from
Birmingham, about $50 acres in ex-
tent. the greater part of which is un-
der cultivation, and on which no cot
ton has ever been raised. Hogs, dairy
cows, vegetables and foodstuffs are
grown, and the farm has always been
not only self-sustaining. but exceed
ingly profitable. A great part Of the
produce finds a market In Birming-
ham. This farm is handled in a busi-
nesslike manner, the owner keeping q
record of costs of each crop, the price
received for it, and the total profit de-
rived, in this way being able to tell
at a moments notice just what crops
are paying and those that are not
making money for him.
This is the plan Of campaign adopt.
ed by those behind the campaign In
the South, and 1t is a sure thing that
it will have the results expected-that
is the getting away from the one crop
idea and making the southern farmer
Independent at all times"

SOUNDED LIKE BAD BREAK
Though Anyone Who Knows lrishman
Will Know What Pat Meant
to Convey.

The talk at a dinner party having
turned to the subject of inadvertently
making bad breaks, Congressman JEFF
ferson M. Levy Of New York related
an incident about a party named Pat.
Some time ago Pat was taken to a
hospital to be treated for an eye trou-
BILE. Eventually the bandages were
removed, but it was several days be-
fore the patient could distinguish the
adjoining scenery.
How about 1t now. Pat?" said the
doctor coming into the room one aft
ernoon. Are the eyes improving
any"
Sure, doctor. an they are thot,
was the glad response Of Pat.
That's good!" returned the doctor
Can you see better; can you see the
nurse now"
Sure, an Oh can, sir" quickly
answered Pat Faith, an she gets
palmer and palmer every day."-Phil
adelphia Telegraph.

Eve Improvement.

AS a rule sheep owners place too
much stress upon the selection of the
ram, and too little upon the selection
of good, uniform breeding ewes. There
is no question but that good pure
bred ram can do much to improve a
flock of grade ewes. but as the flock
more. nearly reaches perfection. it is
very necessary that we devote more
attention. to selecting the breeding
ewes, or further improvement will be
out OF the question.

GOOD WORD FOR THE BIRDS

The warm weather has brought the

of which can be heard from no trained
orchestra They dot the landscape with
a beauty that no artistic skill can
rival. They are beautiful, useful In
their destruction of harmful insect

The best instincts Of the human race
are devoted to the saving OF all kinds
of life, and sanction the taking of life
only when such destruction serves a
purpose useful to mankind.
This cannot be urged in the case OF
the birds. For the most part they are
not food animals. The higher intelli'
gence and spiritualism Of humanity
should bring about concerted move,
