FARMERS URGED
TO SHOP EARLY
Nation Wide Campaign to Pro.
mote Earlier Buying Of
Supplies.
SHORTAGE THE REASON
congested Condition Of Railroads
Urged a. Reason Why Farmers
Should Purchase Supplies In
Time for Spring Planting.

New York.-A nationwide campaign
to promote earlier buying and ship
ping Of fertilizers, seeds, lime, farm
machinery and other supplies and ma
terials for spring use has been started
by the National Fertilizer association
here, in order that the goods may be
moved and delivered to the farmers in
time for use this spring. On account
of the congested condition and lack Of
cars on the railroads, indications are
that unless earlier shipments than
usual are made the supplies will not be
delivered in time for use. Without the
necessary supplies, serious damage
would be caused by next years crops.
To Extend Shipping Season.
BY calling attention to the serious
car shortage, 1t is hoped that the nor
NAL shipping season Of six or eight
weeks may be extended over three
months, enabling the railroads to move
the plantfood, seeds, lime and other
supplies before the spring planting sea-
son opens. |
Shipping conditions have been grow
ing worse instead Of better. according
to the announcement made by Presi-
dent Horace Bowker of the National
Fertilizer association. The a short
age on September 1 was 1900 freight
cars, he said. On October l, the short
age had increased to 10000 cars. on
November l to 10000 ars and on De-
cember 1 to approximately 10000 cars.
The usual practice Of farmers has
been to delay ordering their spring
supplies for fertilizer until just before
the a opened, thus crowding 81
per cent Of the shipments Of fertilizer
for spring crops into a period Of from
six weeks to two months.
Manufacturers declare that 1t will be
impossible for the railroads to move
the 100000 tons normally used each
spring, unless supplies are purchased
earlier thnn ever before.
Some Of the Advantages. ,
Other advantages Of early ordering
and shipping are that farmers are able
to haul the supplies to their farms be-

The Chinese government has grant,

In Mongolia. and from that point he
will proceed by caravan. into Tibet,
where he will search for a young
Buddha to replace his old master.
Inquiries will be made by him In
Tibet for boys born In a miraculous
way, with divine signs, such as a red
light or other forms Of supposed d.
vine manifestations, at about the time
the old Hutuhktu passed AWAY. All
the boys thus obtained will be then
carried to Lhassa, where their names
will be written on slabs of wood and
placed in a golden urn. The boy
whose name is first drawn out after
due ceremony will be declared the re-
embodiment Of the dead Buddha.

NUMBERS OF COUNTRY ROADS
Iowa State Highway Commission sug.
oests That City Plan Be Used
Capital Central Point.

Numbering Of country roads and
residences 10 that every road and
country home may be instantly To-
Gated, is advocated by the service bull
letin Of the Iowa state highway COM
mission, which is just of the press.
The system advocated was originally
suggested last June.
In the system suggested, the section
upon which the state capitol is located
Is considered the central point and all
roads are numbered north, east, south
and west from this. Using the base
map appearing in the bulletin, one
can easily locate the number Of his
road and house.
The system is so arranged that
practically every road bears the same
designation across the state. The
numbering system does not In any
way interfere with the use of the
names Of organized tourist routes
such as Lincoln highway and others.

KICKING cow EASILY CURED
Three Different Methods Suggested for
Treatment % Unruiy Animal BY
Kansas Expert

tBy LESLIE ROSS. Kansas Experiment
StationJ
Care and patience will do much to
cure the kicking COW.
The kicking cow Is easily cured by
the proper methods. To cure the Of
Tending animal take a rope with a
loop In one end of it or a trunk strap
and pass 1t around the body Of the
COW. Draw it tight. The cow usually
will jump u little at first. but when
she finds she cannot get out of the
rope she will standard cannot kick.
This method once in a while causes
the COW to give bloody milk. II this
happens place the rope or strap be-
hind the udder and draw it up in the
same N With some rows this
cannot be done because of the shape
Of the udder. Another method Is to
hobble the COW by passing the rope
around each leg behind the udder, and
tying just above the hooks. This is,
however. rather dangerous for the
man tying the rope. After the pre-
ventive Measure has been repeated a
few times the COW will stand readily
to be MIXED.

WARTS MAY BE TROUBLESOME

Warts on the teats are often trouble
some in milking, besides adding to the
danger Of increasing the possibility Of
communicating the milk through infec-
tious material which may be found on
them. They may be greatly benefited
or entirely removed by smearing them
thickly with pure olive oil.

despite this treatment, they may be

and the spot touched with a stick Of

They may be oiled now, and the
caustic potash treatment repeated as
often as necessary to prevent their re-
moved growth.

Poor cows are never clean.

Poor cows are never clean.
No dairy was ever too clean.
The cows should have a chance to 60
to shelter now when they naturally

A thorough chilling now will dis
qualify a herd for profit during the

The breeding bull always represents
half the value of the breeding power
of the herd IL 1t is desired to grow
calves for the dairy.
.
Calves intended for the dairy should
not be made fat as veals, and they
should not be allowed to become stunt
ed. They should be thrifty and grow
ing all the time.
A good price for a superior bull is
money well invested. The difference
between the price Of a strictly high
class sire and an inferior one ia made
up In the first lot Of calves.
It Is hard to make some men realize
the great influence of a good, pure
bred sire in q herd. The sire Ii more
than half the herd. II he is richly
bred. every heller inherits from him
good butter traits.
Buying q bull without knowing the
record Of his dam Is apt to result in
heavy loss for the farmer. Get a sire
that will improve the herd.
