ga lot of thin cattle and sheep have
been put on Iowa farmers this fall, but
relatively few of them are being turned
into unharvested corn fields" says AL
bert Clauson of Deloit.
1.-THE majority of farmers would rath-
er play safe and are not inclined to
place much confidence in the livestock
market. Most of the corn acreage is
being picked by hand, at a cost of Z and
cents a bushel, and. with the excep-
ton of small patches that can be profit
ably cleaned up by livestock, practically
all Of it in this territory will be crib
bed. y '.
"The big advantage in husking and
cribbing the crop is that it can be sold
to elevators or fed to stock later on.
depending on which market will yield
the greater returns. Many of the cat
tie and sheep now in Iowa are being fed
a large amount of roughage and a
small amount of grain, their owners
having concluded that a hard corn fin
ish can be put on later, if trade pros
poets justify a costlier feed BILL"

A modern counterpart of the old.
fashioned barn raising, with certain
noteworthy features added in the form
of assistance by state authorities, has
appeared in Marshall county, Iowa,
where the farmers have had great diff.

farm buildings. The plan being worked
out is for the groups of farmers to CO.
operate in erecting their structures I'M
der the direction Of the county agent
and the farm building experts Of Iowa

houses, because Of their simplicity, are
being tried first. A feature of the move
ment which is looked on as giving par.
ticular promise is the fact that tue ~

es plans for the buildings so that the
cooperating builders may have explicit
directions for cutting materials and
erecting the structures. The first poul.
try houses will be built under extension
supervision, but after that the farmers
are expected to duplicate the work on
other farms. In case this experiment
proves satisfactory the same principle
may be applied to more pretentiOus
building enterprises.

From Kane Springs the road will run

DEVICE WINS
FORTUNE FOR
INVENTOR
(Rv Associated Pressl

London, Jan. IA device which
for more than three years helped to
protect British warships from German
mines has won for its inventor, Lieut.
Chirles d. Burney, of the British navy,
the order of Companion of st. Mich
ael and st. George and grant of
S150,000. The invention is said to
have saved the lives of hundreds of
sailors and prevented the loss of
many warships. 1t consists of a
waterplane shaped like torpedo, hav-
ing a pair of large flat fins project
ing on either side. 1t is towed over
side by wire rope in such a way
that it runs from the ships bows
outward. The wire rope is intended
to pick UP the mooring ropes of mines
and slide them along until they reach
to the nose of the device, where a
sharp saw is fixed inside V-shaped
slot. The saw cuts through the moor
ing rope and allows the mine to float
