DIR. Reinsch has been an honor guest

given him by the Chinese students at
the University DR.. Reinsch stated that
"The Chinese have their patriotism
deeply rooted in their minds though
they show less to the outside world.
The spirit they have shown in the last
few months seems to me to be based
on broader foundations than japanese
loyalty. If the spirit develops fur
become worse, China is safe.

FARM, STOCK, HOME, DAIRY

An old ledger found in one of the
stores brings to light.an item of inter-
est: On July z, 1890, 22i5 dozen eggs
sold for 80 cents, or bought a pair of
overalls for 80 cents. Compare that
with the purchasing power at the
present time on the same number of
eggs which on October 8, 1919, sold
for $10.25 and left a balance of $3.50.
Calvin Cox, Manning Guernsey
breeder, tells the Censor that he did
not dispose of his entire herd of full
bloods to LaFarge farmers and breed
ers; that he has six left, besides his
grades. The Is animals Tat he sold
were cows, calves, 8 yearlings,
two ear-olds, bull, the bunch bring
ing him $S,625, which is certainly a
neat haul, and Mr.. Cox says they are
fully worth it. The two cows were
valued at $500 each. Mr.. Cox bought
at Saturdays sale here, from the
Molin offerings, a young herd bull.
Wisconsin tobacco pays more per
acre than that of any other state.
Feed to produce one dozen eggs
cost ten cents with pullets, IA cents
with 2-year-old hens, and 19 cents
with 3-year-old hens, in 3-year feed
ing test conducted by poultry men of
the United States Department of Ag-
ricuiture. These were the cost fig
ures of feed at the time of the expert
ment, which began in 1912, and must
be corrected to present prices.
At the Gochenauer-South sale,
held on Viola Fair grounds, last Fri
day, Solfest Dregne and Peter John
son of Franklin, each purchased two
full Shorthorn cows, each reg
istered sire.
