WOULD BE SURE


He was of the type that believed
what was to be would be-. He was
native of Missouri, and was one day
going out several miles through
region invested by very savage In
dians. He always took his gun with
him, but on this particular occasion
one of the other members of the fam
lily had already taken it out. He was
determined, however, not to go out
without it, and this caused friend
who happened to be visiting at the
house to tantalize him by saying there
was no danger of the Indians; that
he would not die until his time came,
anyhow. eyes," answered the old
fellow, "but suppose l was to meet
an Indian, and his time had come; it
wouldn't do, nohow, not to have my
gun"

SPRAYED ORCHARD BEATS
BAD MARKET CONDITIONS

1t cost farmer of DeKalb county,
Missouri, 500 to spray an apple Or
chard of less than one acre. This
farmer had heard of a man who liv-
ed several miles away who had made
money spraying his orchard. The
latter had two some who has attended
the Short Course in Agriculture at
the University of Missouri at Column
bia. The boys were pruning and
spraying the home orchard, and the
results they obtained gave their work
a wide publicity.
The farmer who had the following
experience in spraying owned small
family orchard of only n trees. He
had obtained no first class, unblem-
ished fruit from it, so he asked the
Short Course men to show him how
to spray the trees. The boys agreed
to furnish the material and do the
work for one-half of the marketable
apples.
The arrangements were made so
late that only two of the three re-
CURED applications of spray were
made. Lime sulphur and lead arsen-
ate was the spray used and it was
applied in six and one-half days,
They used $7.25 worth of spray ma
terial. About 600 bushel of market
able apples were harvested. The
boys took home IS bushels for family
use and sold the rest of their onehalf
share back to the owner Of the or
chard for SIS dollars, far below mar
ket price, for the apples were sold
in the orchard. thus six and one
half days work plus $725 in spray
material Melted a good return for the
boys. While it cost The farmer about
500 for the care Of his orchard, it

Hogs weighing $50 pounds upwards

ing $8.40-the top. When this de-
mand was satisfied packers then were
able to buy some strong weight hogs
Sc lower than yesterday, but mixed
hogs they secured fully 10c lower
The bulk of the good hogs, 100 pounds
upwards, sold at So to $500, and a
good many of these were left unsold
On the early market few strong
weight pigs sold, but outside of these
few transactions, trade was demon
allied The trade is fully SOC lower
than yesterday. Orders for light
weight stuff is very limited at this
writing and the yards were full of
these when the market CLOSED today.
Pigs weighing 100 to $50 pounds sold
at 81 to $775, with lighter pigs at
$3.50 to $6.75. Rough hogs $3.50 to
1886.
Today's receipts $4,000 with about
$500 direct to packers. The supply
today, like for the past several days,
was made up largely of pigs and
light lights which will to large ex-
tent explain why light stuff has sold
so unsatisfactory while at the same
time good weights which are scarce,
have with but few exceptions been
selling so we'll and bringing the top

was well worth while to him as a bus
mess venture, because had the Or
chard not been sprayed the fruit
would have been almost worthless
with the market as it was last year.
This DeKalb county farmer be-
lieves in spraying now. He will do
his own work after this but the Short
Course Toys made almost enough out
of this orchard to pay their way
through one term of the course.

Southeast Mis-
souri, Corn Yield
for Year. 1915

The acre yield Of corn in Southeast
Missouri, 1915, was an average Of
1875 bushels per acre. The highest
average yield in any one county was
Al bushels. With the season we had
last year, ought this average not to
have been higher? We have reached
a place in growing corn where larg-
err yields are made only at loss if
we figure our labor and fertilizer?
Last week we wrote of the law of
diminishing returns and its applica-
ton to renting. Is this same law
holding our yields down on a level
with those sections of the State that
do not have the advantage of soil
and climate that we have?
Would not some manure or lime, or
fertilizer, together with little more
thorough cultivation give us very
much higher yields?
In the corn acre yield contest last
year, there were five yields above ITO
bushels per acre. Figuring the cost
of the labor, as was reported to us,
shows that we have not yet reached
a point where additional labor is put
on corn at loss.
These reports have been printed
and will be sent to anyone who is in
terested. Ask for results of 1916
corn yield contest. We do not think
that every farm can be made to give
these high yields, but the same meth
DDS used can be made to very greatly
increase yields and in many cases
even double them.
