 Under q genuine sort of vocational raining in country and city for the needs of the nation men would by the 5ery force of circumstances again fill very great number of desirable places of educational leadership.

Tin Music.


 One of the inmates of the Masonic home near Franklin Is past ninety years of age. In all his long life he had never heard photograph. Re gently the members of one of the lodges in the state presented the home with a photograph. This was source of wonder to the old man. He had occasion to visit some friends in Franklin, and while there was asked how he liked his new home. Its all right" he said, just fine. And, say, we've got a machine down there that is the queerest thing l ever saw. They take a pie pan that has hole cut in the middle. and put 1t in the machine. Then they turn a crank and grind up that tin, and 1t makes music. It's dang good music, too. oo."-lndianapolis News.

COEX IN PEACE OF WHEAT.

TO eat more corn and less wheat
is simple way, which everyone can
adopt, to help in feeding the allies
across the seas Corn is distinctly
American product. We raise ap-
proximately two-thirds of all that IS
grown in the world; we are accuG-
toned to it, and we know how to
prepare it for the table. In Europe
with the exception of Italy, Austria
Hungarary, and Rumania, it is al
not know how to cook corn meal ana
similar products. We can use ou"
corn to much better advantage here
than they can abroad; and the moro
corn we do use the more wheat, rye,
and barley will be available for
export.
Corn meal costs less than the
other popular cereals, and it's nutri-
tive value compares favorably with
that of wheat. 1t is somewhat de-
ficient in protein or tissue-building
material, but this characteristic is
not so marked in the case of the old
fashioned unbolted meal. Those who
prefer this can obtain it readily by
grinding the corn themselves at
home in hand gristmill.
The Secretary of Agriculture has
appealed for an expansion of the
corn acreage on the ground that corn
is the leading feed and food crop Of
the United States, and that it can be
grown successfully over a greater
area than any other. Undoubtedly
farmers will act on this advice. Ii
the consumers do their part as we'll,
there will be that much more wheat
available for export.
Detailed suggestions for the use OF
corn in making bread and in other
ways can be had from the United
States Department of Agriculture
upon request.

HIGH EGG PRICES
NOT UNREASONABLE
Advance In Cost of Whole
Grain Must Be Met.
MASH MIXTURES CHEAPEST
Poultrymen Of the State Must Meet
Changed Conditions.

College Park, Md, June 21.-Al-
though egg prices are nearly double
what they were a year ago, the cost
of grain feeds has advanced even more
and poultrymen are facing failure un-
less cheaper feeds can be made use OF.
Poultryman Roy H. Waite, Of the
Maryland Agricultural Experiment Sta
ton, in a circular to the poultrykeep-
ers of the State, calls attention to the
change in price levels and urges the
adoption of mash feeding. Mr.. Waite
says:
I'm June, 1914, eggs were 10 cents a
dozen, according to the quotations OF
a Baltimore commission man. In June,
1917, they were quoted at SO cents
dozen. an advance of 80 per cent. since
the war began.
'This is the part the consumer sees,
and he is all too prone to judge that
he is being held up by the poultry rails
ers, packers, or middlemen He does
not come in contact with the increased
cost of feed.
"In June, 1914, Baltimore whole
sale feed dealer quoted wheat at $1.O7
per bushel. In June, 1917, he quotes
, wheat at $2.70 per bushel, 152 per
cent. increase. Long ago the poultry
raisers who keep books gave us the
use of whole wheat as feed for poul-
try.
"In June, 1914, corn was quoted at
80 cents bushel. In June, 1917, it is
quoted at $1.91 bushel, ia per cent.
advance. Where does the poultry
raiser get his profit with his 80 per
cent increase in the price of eggs?
There is only one thing for him to do.
He cannot boost the price of eggs,
and he cannot bring down the price OF
corn and wheat; the only thing he can
do is to substitute cheaper ration, If
he can find one. Just at present there
seems to be an avenue of escape from
the excessive high cost of feeds in the
use of mill by-products.
"Bran, in June, 1914, sold at $1.4O
per bushel. In June, 1917, it is quoted
at $2.15, an advance of "a per cent.
Middlings, in June, 1914, were quoted
at $1.49. In June, 1917, they are
quoted at $2.45, an advance of IS per
cent These two products are the best
part of the wheat for feeding purposes,
and by making extensive use of them
poultrymen can replace their wheat
and still get feed that will help bring
down their total cost somewhere near
a place where they can make normal
profit.
Meat scrap, poultry feed which
In normal times is much the most ex-
pensive, has only advanced about 40
per cent II one will combine bran,
middlings, and beef scrap into mash
and feed it literally, along with corn
as scratch feed, he will get ration
that has advanced about IS per cent.
since 1914, or approximately the same
advance as eggs"
