BEREA RHODE ISLAND RED
POULTRY ASSOCIATION
Help Paint the County Red"

This Association was organized
because of the demand for Rhode
Island Red eggs for Matching pur-
poses.
Standardization Of poultry for
Kentucky is being advocated and
pushed by the State Poultry Spe-
cialists of the state College Of Agri-
culture. Eastern Kentucky being
standardized with the Reds with
the exception of a few counties,
made a broad field for the Reds.
This being true the Breeders under
the direction Of the County Agent
got together and organized the As
ISOLATION so as TO be able TO help in
this great work for Kentucky.
The Association produced from
February to June 1, 30,0is eggs.
Two hundred and seven people
purchased eggs for Matching pur-
poses. Sixty-one new 6ocks were
started within the bounds of the
Association - southern Madison
and Rockcastle counties. Thous-
ands of eggs were shipped to other
counties of Kentucky.
The 81 members of the association
have more than 5000 pure bred
Rhode Island Red chickens to date.
The flocks are headed with males
valued at from $500 to $500.
Eggs for Matching purposes were
sold for si.OO per setting Us eggs
or $500 per hundred.
This Association will put on a
complete exhibit of poultry and
eggs at the Berea Agricultural Fair
in October.

An Urgent Celebration
BY Willis Brooks

BY Willis Brooks
Ny father was Marshal one Fourth of
July,
And made long lasting impression,
With his sash and his sword and a
plume waving high,
As he calamity rode gay thorough
bred by
At the head of the gorgeous pro-
cession-
In a garlanded chariot next to the
band
My mother was Liberty's Goddess;
With a cap on her head and a sword
in her hand,
Begowned IN the stripes Of our glori-
Gus land,
Set of with star-spangled bodice.
You see. this was ever so long. long
Before they were known to each
other;
And. of course. since he wasn't so
much as her beau,
Neither one of them had any reason
That they were my father and
mother.
Now the Marshal. you know, ID ex-
pected to ride
UP and down the whole length of
the column;
And the Goddess IL always supposed
to preside
As the guardian of Freedom, Amer
iea's pride.
With a dignity stately and solemn.
For a Marshal Is one who's appointed
That the marchers are all In their
stations;
And a Goddess, Of course, II expected
TO be
So far above earthly endcemsnts that

Small Colleges Form
States Second Line of
Educational Defence

not approach an answer to these in
quiries without re-stating the histor-
ical fact that the privately endowed
colleges are the mother schools of the
educational system in America More
over, the privately endowed colleges
have been especially developed In ord
er to stress Christian education. They
are not in competition with state-sup-
ported schools, but they are very posi-
tive cooperating agents with the
state-supported institutions.
BY reason of their history and their
charters, they are effectively organ
lied to strengthen the state-supported
schools, which might otherwise be
forced to stress unduly material edu-
cation. Privately endowed colleges
exist for the purpose of cooperating
in moral and religious training. It is
fundamentally important that state
supported schools have the education
al and spiritual backing which the pri-
vately endowed colleges have always
supplied, and which they must offer in
an increasing degree If our state
schools are to be protected from an
increasing demand for material educa-
tioR.
It is necessary for the churches to
foster both the publicly supported and
the privately endowed educational ac-
tivities in Wisconsin. They can do
no less than to use their best influence
to awaken public consciousness to the
important service rendered by each of
these divisions 1t should be clearly
understood also that a vigorous effort
to awaken public consciousness to the
mission of Christian education is no
disloyalty to state-supported schools.

vestment, while 33 made over $1,000.
Farmers are not always successful
year after year. This helps one to
understand why there may be discon-
tent among the farmers when at the
same time many farmers are known
to be prospecting.
Can't Sell Low and Buy High.
Farmers are prospecting under pres
ent conditions of good prices and an
unsatisfied demand for farm products,
but they are not profiteering. They
are not making wages equivalent to
those workers in less exacting lines.
Farmers have investments which must
earn interest, and their families are
entitled to pay for the work they do
before they may figure anything as
wages for themselves.
What becomes of farm profit:
There is none, if fair minded people
allow farmers to figure as they figure
themselves. Farmers can produce at
much lower levels, but they cannot
be fairly asked to do so unless other
members of society are also willing to
come down.

STUDENTS EARN OWN WAY
No Reason Why Healthy, Ambitious
Wisconsin Boy or Girl Should
Not Go to College.

Few colleges in the United States
have such large percentages of stu
dents earning their way through
school as have the Wisconsin colleges.
For example, nearly 80 per cent OF
the students at Northland College are
either totally or partly dependent upon
their own resources. At Beloit Col
lege nearly 70 per cent of the students
earn part of their expenses. At Car
roll College nearly so per cent of the
students make their own way. At Rip
on College 40 per cent students are de-
pendent upon themselves.
Because of the opportunities for self
help in the college towns of Wiscon-
sin, there is really little reason why
any healthy young man or woman liv-
ing in Wisconsin should not go to col
lege.
The Wisconsin Colleges Associated
are today acquainting the people of
Wisconsin with the functions, oppor-
tunities, problems and needs of the
small college.

FINDINGS OF AN IMPORTANT SURVEY MADE IN DANE COUNTY

Have farmers reaped profit from
war prices or have increased ex-
penses absorbed the advantage OF
higher prices?
Many assertions have been made on
each side of this question. Some SIM
pie facts have been brought out by a
fiye-year survey of 60 farms near
Verona in Dane county, Wisconsin,
made by the college Of agriculture.
While the findings of this survey
do not pretend to answer this question
for American agriculture in general,
or even for Wisconsin as whole, they
do serve to show the need for the
greater prosperity of farmers.
The years 1914 and 1915 were lean
years in Verona. Gross receipts fell
below the level of 1913 and the ex-
penses increased. In 1916, the year
prior to our entering the war, farm
receipts jumped appreciably and were
followed by still greater increase IN
1917. Farm expenses increased each
year, but not so rapidly as income,
leaving an increasing margin as the
farmers profit, or, in reality, better
pay for his labor.
Wages Not Salary.
Farm profit as popularity thought
of, is what is left over after deducting
from the cash receipts and increased
inventory of farm property all the eX-
penses including an allowance at cur
rent rates for the unpaid family labor,
depreciation of equipment and inter-
est at per cent on the valuation of
the farm property. This sum is also
called the farmers labor income.
The average labor income Of the 50
Verona farmers for five years was
$4O8; for 1913, $215; 1914, $56; 1915,
$68; 1916, 1925; 1917, $1,075. The
higher figure in 1916 was due partly
to better crops, but more largely to
higher prices, while the relatively
high returns of 1917 must be attrib-
uted entirely to high prices because
the crops were poorer. War prices
were necessary to offset the low
prices of the earlier years.
Live Stock Supplies Large Part Of
the Income.
The Verona area is more or less
typical of the farming conditions in
southern Wisconsin. Corn, oats, and
hay are the staple crops, and the
titled land is nearly equally divided
among these crops. About "a per
cent of the land is in crops, the re-
mainder being in pasture, woods, and
unprOductive land.
The main sources of income in the
Verona area are dairy products, cattle
and hogs. Five-sixths of the incomes
came from the dairy herd and the
hogs The number of cows increased
about 20 per cent during the period,
the. quality of milk increased, which.
Iowa County democrat. [volume] (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1877-1938, 1919-10-02

with better prices, gave increasing inn
pOrtance to milk as source Of in
come.
Expenses Increased Rapidly.
The expenses increased about 80
per cent in the five years. The prices
of some of the things the farmers
have to buy increased 100 per cent or
more. The effect of so per cent in
crease In the wages of hired help and
the difficulty in procuring it, was a
reduction III the percentage of hired
labor. Feed in 1917 was high priced
and hard to get while more was need
ed on account of more animals and
poorer crops. Feed in Verona is not
usually large factor in the farm ex-
pense. Machinery prices went so
high that only the most indispensable
items were purchased.
Dairying Is Godsend.
The dairy cow is Verona's gold

Wisconsin to the Rescue
of the Private Colleges

Within the last four years the pur-
chasing power of endowment revenues
has been diminished by one-half, while
college teachers, impoverished and suf-
fering, are everywhere clamOring for a
more adequate remuneration and are
deserving college teaching by thous-
ands for industrial employment. New
er was expansion in buildings, equip
ment, and teachers so urgently called
for, yet never were these improve
ments so costly or the colleges so un-
able to finance them
No wonder that in this unparalleled
combination of emergency and oppor-
tunity the friends of these keynote in
situations are everywhere organizing
for their relief. The Harvard alumni
are raising $11,OOO,O0O. The friends Of
Princeton have set their figure at $14,.
100000. The Massachusetts Institute
of Technology is raising $10,000,00O.

est opportunity.
Wisconsin sets the pace for Virginia
as we'll as for the rest of the states
of the Union. Here the privately en-
dowed colleges of the state, regardless
of whether denominational or monde
nominational, Catholic or Protestant,
have joined hands to work out their
common problems. Today they are &C.
quainting the people of the state with
their needs. During the last week in
October they will appeal for 100000
to be distributed among the eight in
situations on a basis of student hours
and to be used by them in increasing
the salaries of the members of their
faculties, in employing larger and
more competent faculties, in construct
ing new buildings and in getting mod
ern equipment and in enlarging en-
dowmentS.
Again Wisconsin leads the way.

BYDR. HENRY LOUIS SMITH,
President, Washington and Lee Uni
versity, Lexington, Va.

The marvellous rise to leadership of
college-bred men at home and abroad
during the world war, has silenced all
pre-war criticism of the American col
lege. All are now enthusiastic in it's
praise as the nursery of American
leadership, not only in science and en-
gineering, but in morals and public
service. The next ten years will be
memorable as period of unprecedent-
ed university growth and expansion.
In this benefcent rivalry of public
service there is ample room and need
for all kinds of institutions, local and
national, Church and State, liberal and
technical
One class, however, which has done
a notable work in the past, is peculiar
Iy fitted to respond to the needs and

fer to the small group of institutions
which are independent and self-gov-
erning, free from party politics and
ecclesiastical control, independent of
Legislatures and State boundaries. In
the future, even more than in the past,
they are to be the melting pot where
students of all sections and political
creeds will be fused into the new ide-
ais of tolerance and cooperation.
Yet this is the group now facing the
most serious financial emergency of
their history. With no legislative ap-
preparations, tax revenues, or church
organizations behind them, their lnan-
cial support has always come from the
voluntary contributions of their
friends and alumni. All who have
even a casual acquaintance with high
er education know the tuition fees
have never paid half the necessary ex-
penses of such colleges and universe
ties. Their endowments have been
their chief source of revenue.

mine She proved her worth beyond
a doubt. Some farmers sold their
herds and made money on their crops,
but disregarding the effect on mar
ket prices if all farmers had dis
posed of their cows these Verona
farmers would have Jared poorly if
they had depended on selling their
crops on the market.
One rather important source of real
income farmers overlook because it
does not figure in their financial trans
actions. The farm provides a house
to live in and all sorts of good things
for the table. The direct contribu-
ton Of the farm to the family living
varies, but may easily amount to from
so to Is per cent or even more For
Verona is was estimated at about
$500 a year.
Rewards Are for Farmers With
Ability.
In farming as in other occupations
the prizes are for those who have abil-
ity. Some make good while others are
