Suggestion To Shippers Of Hogs
During Heated Season.

! desire to call your attention 10
the suggestion from Mr.. o. B. Liv-
ingston, of jacksonville, Kentucky,
as to how he has been able to reduce
shrinkage on hogs when shipped dur
ing hot weather. He stated: Three
times during the heated term of this
summer, in car load lots, | have re-
duced shrinkage at least so per cent
by the simple expedient of placing in
each car with the hogs, three 100
pound cakes OF ice, upon the floor of
the car at equal intervals. This ice
costs soc per hundred pounds and $40
or $50 per car can be saved, by its
use in preventing shrinkage in the
weight of hogs"
Try this simple suggestion for what
it is worth. 1t may save you many
dollars.

How Borer Injuries Corn.

All parts of the corn plant, except
the hbrous roots, are tunneled by the
larvae or borer. Their most damag-
ing work is done in the stalks and
ears, which they partially or totally
destroy. They usually enter the up
per end of the stalk, near the base of
the tassel, and tunnel upwards for a
short distance before tunneling down
the stalk The tassel is so weakened
by this damage that it breaks over be-
fore maturing. Much pollen is thus
lost and grains fail to form normally
on the ears. These broken tassels,
with outpouring of sawdust-like ma
terial at the breaks, are sure signs
that the European corn borer is get
ting in its deadly work
Many times the borer enters near
the junction of the leaf and stalk.
Any small hole with sawdust-like ma
terial coming out of it indicates the
presence of borers. Several borers
frequently work in one stalk, reduc-
ing it to mere she'll The nutri-
ment to the developing ear is cut off
by this injury. The stalk is weaken
ed and eventually breaks.

The chief danger to the Nations
corn crop lies in the possibility of
Borer-infested plants being transport
ed into sections where the borer does
not already exist. To prevent this,
all plant quarantine laws must be
strictly enforced with regard to plants
likely to be infested.
Quarantine measures must be sup
plemented by careful cleanup oper-
atoms in infested areas. Destroy all
plant material likely to harbor borers.
Burning Most Effective.
In infested areas burning has prov
ed the most effective means of des-
troying the borers Burn all of the

plants, weeds, and grasses that may
contain Overwhelming borers. Do
this in the late fall, winter or early
spring, while the borers are within
such material and the vegetation is
dry enough to burn readily.
Under the most favorable circum-
stances the burning of infested plants
will require considerable labor and ex-
pense, but it must be remembered
that the insect seriously threatens the
corn growing industry of America,
and that radical and effective meas
ures must be adopted to control it.

street interests, and he told ME that
Wall street had copies of the treaty.
"While the senate of the United
States is asking for a treaty with
which it will ultimately have to deal
and while the American people are
asking for a treaty by which they
will ultimately, in all probability, be
bound, certain interests in the city of
New York are in possession of this
treaty and are dealing with it and
discussing it while we are deprived
of it."
Leak" to Be Investigated.
Senator Hitchcock, of Nebraska, in
charge of the administration fight for
the treaty and the league of nations,
hurried back to Washington today
from speaking tour. He introduced
a resolution in the senate calling for
a thorough investigation of the al
legged 'leak" of the treaty text, de-
handing ascertainment of the man
ner in which the treaty was obtained
and the identity of the New York
people who had copies of it. He
charged that Senators Lodge and b.
rah had made an attack "of a most
scandalous nature" on the president
in their statements telling of copies
of the unpublished treaty in New
York.
Senator Lodge replied that there
was nothing to conceal and that he
would welcome investigation which
should include also the democratic
state department. Senator Borah
made a similar statement and then
charged that there was ga conduit"
between those backing the league to
enforce peace, headed by former
President Taft, and those who pos
sess information as to what is in the
treaty.
Tonight Acting Secretary Polk, of
the state department, took hand in
the controversy through issuance
of a statement denying declaration
of Senator Lodge during the debate
that the state department had told
newspaper men financial sections OF
the treaty were in the hands of fl
nancial interests in New York.

COTTON INDICATES
THREE-FOURTHS CROP
75.6 Per Cent. of Normal on May
25th, Says Department of Agri-
culture Report.

The bureau of crop estimates,
United States department of agrlcul-
ture, in it's first cotton report of the
season of 1920 placed the condl-
ton of the growing crop on May 70
at 1856 per cent. of normal, as COM
pared with 1878 on May 25, 1918,
69.5 on May rs, 1917, IT'S May 5,
1918, and 1872 the ten-year average
on May 25th.
Georgia and North Carolina were
the only states in the belt to report
a condition above a year ago, the
former being 81 per cent, as COM
pared with IS on May 25 last year, or
3 points above the ten-year average
Other states showing a condition
above the ten-year average We're:
\ yrth Carolina, South Carolina, Vlr-
ginia. The condition of the crop in
the western belt was decidedly poor,
with Arkansas showing a loss of IL
points from the ten-year average and
13 points from a year ago. In Okla
homa the condition was 16 points be-
low the ten-year average and Fl
points under May 25, 1918. Tennes-
see and Missouri also showed
heavy decline from the ten-year
average and year ago, the former
being 26 points under a year ago.
The condition in Texas was rs per
cent, or 6 points below May 20,
1918, and 4 points below the ten
year average.
No estimates of the acreage plant
ed will be made by the department
of agriculture until the July report.
Unofficial estimates have placed this

SAYS WINE BEES"
ARE JUST YEAST
DESIRE OF AMATEURS TO MAKE
DRINKS is EXPLOITED AT
A HIGH PRICE.

Housewives and those who are in
clined to experiment with substitutes
for brewery and distillery products
against the coming of prohibition
can avoid being stung by "wine bees"
Or "beer bees" if they will keep in
mind that the product advertised un-
der these and other names is only a
wild yeast Of little value, say the
specialists Of the federal bureau of
chemistry. Many inquiries recently
received indicate that some enter
prising individuals and firms are adj
vertising this wild yeast under the
names "vinegar bees" "beer BEES"
"wine BEES" Australian bees" and
various other designations. Extrava-
CANT claims are made for the prod
uct, and fancy price out of all pro-
portion to it's original cost and actual
worth is asked, say the yeast special
lists.
In some advertisements which have
reached the bureau the sellers as
sert that the substance when mixed
with water and molasses or sugar will
produce vinegar. beer, or wine. Other
promoters go so far as to say that
the fermented mixture is beneficial
in the treatment of rheumatism and
kidney trouble-claims which have
no foundation in fact.
The primitive process for making
"bees" was to expose to the air a
mixture of cornmeal and molasses
until it became impregnated with
wild yeast and bacteria. The ferment
so produced was employed locally in
making a sort of vinegar or certain
alcoholic solutions by adding it to a
mixture of water and either brown
sugar or molasses, which was then
allowed to work or ferment.
In the opinion of the bureau spe-
cialists a product made by catching
yeast and bacteria indiscriminately
from the air may contain harmful
as well as desirable organisms, and
the specialists state that great care
should be exercised in both the prep
aration and the use of such product.
In their judgment ''bees" is not as
well suited for fermentation as is the
ordinary yeast.

FORD PLANT CASTS ITS
THREE MILLIONTH MOTOR
Remarkable Record Is Made by the
Famous Automobile Builders.

Remarkable Record Is Made by the
Famous Automobile Builders.
On the 18th day of December at
1855 p. m. in the year 1915, the Ford
Motor Company cast the one mil
lionth Ford model T motor, the ia
nous power plant of the famous Ford
car. 1t marked a great achievement
when 100000 motors had been cast
consecutively, without hairs
breadth of change from the original
design.
On April 8th, at 1 80 p. m. in the
year 1919, the Ford Motor company
cast the three millionth model T mo-
tor, and it was identically the same
in every detail, without a hairs
breadth in any particular, as the first
Ford model 7 motor that was cast
Three million of one piece of mechan-
sim cast, one after the other, without
a change, is certainly about as strong
evidence of perfection as it could be
possible to conceive. Already now
more than 100000 Ford cars in
daily service, and more than 3,000,-
900 alone carrying this famous mod
Ell 7 power plant.
A further pressing fact is that
there has not been a day in the past
three years when the Ford Motor Co.
has not been more than 100000 be-
hind orders for immediate delivery
and the output at the present time
is in excess of 5000 cars per day.
