PROGRESS IN ORGANIZATION
Farmers Are TemperamentaIly inde,

to Get Together.

tBy 7. y. CARVER, United States De

II ought not to be difficult TO con
vince the farmers OF any community
that they need organization. There is
probably not farming community in
the United States which does not need
some, at least, OF the things necessary
to successful and profitable farm work.
Yet none OF these things can be Sc.
cured by individual farmers each work.
ing alone. Some form Of team work"
will be found necessary or adyanta.
geous in every case. They who cannot
or will not work together are always
in weak position when brought into
competition with those who can and do.
Team work counts as much In bust.
ness competition as in athletic con.
tests; but the team work. In either
case, needs to be wisely directed ae-
eording to well-considered plan.
At the very beginning let us ac.
knowledge the excellent work already
done by number OF farmers organ.
izations. They have undertaken a
stupendous task. and they have
grappled with it courageously. There
are now more than six and half mil.
lion farmers in the United States. they
are widely scattered; they have a
great diversity of interests. many of
which are difficult to harmonic. and
farmers are temperamentally an inde.
pendent. individualistic class, and
therefore difficult to organize. In view
Of these facts, it is not difficult to
understand why the progress in or.
ganization has been slow. The recog.
milton Of the work OF rural organiza.
tion by the secretary of agriculture as
a legitimate part of the work of his
department should be great help. and
will probably mark an epoch in the
history of American agriculture.

0VERFEEDING is DANGEROUS
Chickens Can Be Grown Rapidly by
Feeding Often and Sparingly-
Keep Them Exercising.

Overlooking is more dangerous TO
young chickens than underfeeding.
Young chickens should be fed from
three to five times daily. depending
upon ones experience in feeding. I'm.
doubtedly chickens can be grown fast.
er by feeding five times daily than by
feeding three times daily. but at no
tine should they be fed more than
barely TO satisfy their appetites and to
keep them exercising, except at the
evening or last meal. when they should
be given all they will eat. Greater care
must be exercised not to oyerfeed
young chickens that are confined than
those that have free range, as leg
weakness is likely to result in those
confined.-U S. Department OF Agri.
