the blueprint.
These plans are all listed and
described in Extension Circular

Missouri Needs Official Dairy
Testers.

THAT the dairy industry in
Missouri is in a healthy and
thriving condition is indicated
by tho number of calls made
upon the department of dairy
husbandry of the University of
Missouri College of Agriculture
to supervise official testing. So
great has been the demand re-
Gently that there is not at pres
emit available sufficient number
of young men interested in get
ting experience such as this
work enables one to obtain. We
are looking for hustlers with
some experience, who know how
to operate the Babcock tester,
who are accurate at figures, and
who are thoroughly reliable"
said c. W. Turner, of the dairy
department, in speaking of this
work.
Men who realize the value of
experience to be gained in learn
ing the methods of feeding and
management employed by the
most successful breeders make
the best official testers. Test
ers are paid $3.50 to $500 a day,
depending upon qualifications,
service, etc. All travelling ex-
penses are paid so that this is
really equivalent to $4,000 a
month or better.
The duties of the tester are
to weigh the milk from each
milking during the period the
cow is on official test. This is
for two days in the semi-ohicial
work and for seven days
or longer in the strictly official
The tester works under

rectly responsible to it for the I

Recent Tests Show Tomatoes
Need Fertilizer.

a number of fertilizer test,
carried out comparatively be-
tween tomato growers, and thu
horticultural department of thu
: University of Missouri College
OF Agriculture have given indi.
cations that the tomato crop re.
pays we'll for the use of com.
mercial fertilizer. Thousands of
acres of tomatoes are grown for
the canning factories in Nilsson
II, but yields have been too
small, generally speaking. The
weld of canning tomatoes can
be greatly increased so that the
crop will be far more profitable
20 the grower, by the use of
moderate quantities of CONNER
c1al fertilizers. J. w. Pierce of
Howell County reports an av-
erage yield of only 0.8 pounds
of fruit per plant on an infer
tIllzed plot, while an adjoining
plot receiving $50 pounds of a
complete fertilizer produced SO
pounds per plant, an increase of
4OO per cent, Nitrate of soda
alone, and potash alone. show
ed little benefit to tomatoes,
while acid phosphate alone.
showed a very marked increase.
Other tests located in the O.
Zark section show the same gen.
results. One of the good re-
suits from fertilizing tomatoes
Is the earlier maturing of the
trult, a difference of 9 to A
being observed in many
cases. Another interesting point
observed on the farm of H. H.
McElhaney near Springfield, is
that tomato plants respond bet
ter to fertilizer if it is applied
and worked into the row a week
or ten days before the plants
are set.

Only a Cold.

Are you i'll? is often answered
-"Oh! it's only a cold" as if
a cold was a matter of little con-
sequence, but people are begin

is a matter not to be trihed with,
that some of the most serious
diseases start with a cold. AS

a cold appears take Chamber

of your cold the less the danger

Such Proof as This Should Con
vince Any Lexington
Citizen.

The public endorsement of a
local citizen is the best that can
be produced. None better, none
stronger can be had. When a
man comes forward and testi-
fies to his fellow-citizens, ad-
dresses his friends and neigh
bors, you may be sure he is thor
oughly convinced or he would
not do so. Telling ones expert
ence when it is for the public
good is an act of kindness that
should be appreciated. The fol-
lowing statement given by a

more to the many cases of Home

Prospects For Poultry Keepers

look bright for the poultry keep.
ers who will have eggs for sale
this winter. The fact that thu
price of eggs is soaring while
the prices of hogs, cattle and
most other farm products are
suffering a serious slump should
cause many farmers to develop
a more wholesome respect for
the farm hen, and should create
a greater interest in the meth
DDS of increasing the winter pro-
duction of their 6ocks. From
present Indications poultry keep
ers are entering upon the most
profitable era which they have
ever experienced. Wise flock
owners will give their birds the
very best of care this season and
reap handsome profits for their
reward.
To get winter eggs the first
essential is good laying stock.
Well-matured, earl y-hatched
pullets are the best winter law
ers and every flock should con-
tain a good per cent of birds of
this type. The old hens should
have been thoroly culled to re-
move the hens which were nat
urally low producers. In this con-
nection it might be well to en-
phasize the u~selessness of keep
ing late-hatched or poorly devel-
oped pullets. If for any reason
any pullets are not large enough
to start laying soon after No {
vember l, the sensible thing to
90 is to dispose of them and ]
give all possible care to the birds
that are left. The size of the
flock is no sure index of the {
number of winter eggs which {

'FRENCH TTCI" SUCCESSOR
 TO FAMOUS TRENCH COOTIF,

Paris, Feb. 1.-The newest irrita- ton to arise at the peace conference is what the French call gale and what is known elsewhere as "the French itch" It is an annoying but not serious ailment of the skin and Is something like "the seven years itch," which is indigenous in almost every country under local names. The itch Is particularly in evidence in Paris nowadays, having been brought here by soldiers from the battle front.
 If any of the American delegates to the Paris conference have contracted 1t diplomacy forbids betrayal of the fact, but the parasite is rampant at the headquarters of the American mission. Many attaches now have animated recollections Of Mark Twain's one-armed paper hanger with the hives.
