The National Colored Congress
made the mistake of attempting to
send eleven representatives to Paris.
The number ought to be cut down
to three or five. Five strong men
selected on account of their ability
and manliness would accomplish
more than eleven sent simply be-
cause they are "nice'' people. Good
men and strong are needed.

No one can be said to know anv

who have como into intimate and sym
pathetic relations with large numbers
OF that race whom their Southern
friends have never known: and OF the

the second knew tho colorod people
better than the first. They know aspi.
rat1ons among them that the others
40 not know, or. knowing, do not
enter into and appreciate: they know
capaD1litles by direct contact with the

V1ous OF; they know qualities which
only respect and sympathy can bring
out; they know possibilities to which
others by their very acquaintance are
blinded. II those who know the col

observation merely could know what
individual possibilities are demon
strated In growing numbers of tho
elect, and would be eouragsously can

innate that each county in Iowa-and
there are an even hundred of them
loses annually 6 inches of soil
from the top of 100 acres of land.
Henceforth, these specialists think,
not so much good soil will be washed
away. The recent high prices of
Iowa farm lands, injurious in some
particulars, has been beneficial in
causing Iowa farmers to realize that
they can not afford to permit such
valuable waste. A keen interest has
been developed in good drainage as
a result of high prices.

Money Made BY Cleaning Grain

BY cleaning the bulk of their seed
grain, farmers can often get hand
some return by advertising and SELL
ing quantity of seed, provided, of
course, the seed has a high germin-
alton test. Samples can be sent to
the University Farm laboratory for
this test. "By using a tanning mill
in this way" says L. B. Bassett, of
the farm management division, Min

Times to Buy and Sell Cattle


In a study of prices for cattle on
the Chicago market for the Is years
from 1904 to 1918 inclusive, Will
liam L. Calvert, farm management
demonstration at University Farm,
finds that the highest price for fat
steers usually prevails from May to
and the lowest price for
feeders and a stockers in November,
December and January.
1.-THE best policy one year with an
other" he says, would appear to be
to buy the feeders in December, Jan
uary or early February and have
them ready for the May or June mar
ket. This would seem particularly
desirable when silage forms a large
Morris tribune. [volume] (Morris, Minn.) 1880-2000, 1919-12-19

part of the roughage. The silage
does not deteriorate, while shock
corn deteriorates rapidly in the late
winter and early spring. If one has
stalk fields or other feed that would
go to waste, he would usually be
ahead to buy his feeders in time. to
make use of this feed. Also the buy
er who is on the market during the
period when range cattle are being
freely marketed may have opportun-
ity to make better selection than the
December and January or early Feb
ruary buyer. However, considerable
advantage would be required to COM
pensate for the longer feed"
Mr.. Calvert feels that farmer
who bases his feeding and market
practice upon a statistical study OF
market behavior in previous years
will be gamer in the long run, but
calls attention to the fact that in
particular year markets may vary
widely from the average trend.

Bloody Disease of Cattle

1t would be well to watch your
cattle for any signs of bloody
diarrhea as this is becoming quite
common and has caused the loss of
several head in the county during
the past year.
If any signs are noticed, the amin
al should be separated from the other
cattle and put in a we'll bedded stall
where it will have a chance to rest
Morris tribune. [volume] (Morris, Minn.) 1880-2000, 1919-12-19

Raw eggs and coffee are good home
remedies to check diarrhea.
It may be caused by irritant feeds
or it may be symptom of septicemia,
contagious disease. If it seems to
spread in the herd it quite likely is
septicemia and veterinarian should
be called. Vaccination has proved
affective in preventing its spread.
The state law requires all cattle leav-
ing the stockyards to be vaccinated
for septicemia.
