IN DAYS OF HIGH COSTS
1T BEHOOvES FARMERS
TO KEEP UP EQUIPMENT

wastefulness is certainly not an OUT
standing characteristic of the tnriIty'
hardworking American farmer. yet, In
some ways, he is prone to waste MS
money. One of the chief ways In
wastes is by his failure to keep MS
farming equipment in proper condi-
ton. Many pieces of machinery
which are used in one season and not
in the others. should be stored when
not in use.
The average farmer does not 90
this. however. He leaves his piows'
rakes. mowers and other implements
in the nearest field or around the
barnyard. where they are exposed to
all the elements and which deteriora-
ton soon sets in. Consequently, the
best machinery is often ruined by
rust and ready for the junk heap
much sooner that it should be.
All this can be avoided in two ways:
namely, by keeping the machinery
under cover and away from rain and
snow and by painting the iron parts
with wagon paint about every two sea-
sons If a farmer follows this system
10 to Is years instead of from three
to five.
Few factors in modern farm man.
agement are more important than the
efficient use of machinery. The far
mer who hopes to obtain maximum
return per acre from his place must De
an alert business manager as well as
producer. Certainely the problem
of exacting a maximum of service
from each piece of farm machinery Is
an integral element of the general
problem. of netting a maximum profit.
Each additional year of usefulness
for a piece of farm machinery means
a corresponding reduction in deprecia-
ton costs.

WESTERN S.

is powerful dramatic appeal about
the destruction of livestock by pre-
datory animals.
Away out in a remote and snow
drifted draw, separated from the herd,
an old COW stands between a fir tree
and boulder, her calf behind her,
desperately defending it against a
ring of wolves capable of playing a
waiting game throughout the night.
This is a scene common enough here
in the West, about which artists have
painted vivid pictures and authors
have written stirring stories. Mighty
good press agent material for the sur
veys predatory animal campaign. Eut
who would write story or paint a
picture about an Oregon ground squir-
rel running out of its mole TO iii his
belly with bunch grasso
Then. too, there is mighty lure
about the work of predatory animal
destruction. There are millions of
boys--and hundreds of thousands of
boys grown talI''-who envy the
men employed by the bureau to hunt
town the mountain lions. big gray
wolves of fable and story, coyotes and
bobcats over the vast reaches of range
land in the West.
But the losses from dorents, great
as they are, have never been SO strik-
ingly apparent The rodent is indi-
vidually insignificant and compare
lively few stockmen, says Mr.. Nelson,
realize the value of the forage de-
stroyed in the aggregate by the null
tiplied millions of them. The prairie
dog alone occupies more than 1O0.-
900. 900 acres of the best range land in
the Rocky mountain region. and his
range is overlapped in places by the
ground squirrel, gopher and rabbit.
The prairie dog destroys from 10 to
10 per cent of the grass in any region
which he occupies. Charles Springer.
an old stockman of New Mexico, esti-
mates that the ranges of New Mexico
alone would support 400 900 more cat
tie or 100000 more sheep than at
present if the prairie dog pest could
be removed.

COST OF ERADICATING
CATTLE TICKS REPAID
so FOLD SAYS REPORT

That big dividends follow invest
ments in cattle tick eradication Is
shown by Investigations during the
last year Of the United States Depart
men OF Agriculture. The expense OF
permanently freeing cattle from ticks
is rapid from 20 to so times.
The cost of making tine necessary
number of dippings in crude cresois
varies from is to so cents for each
animal. and one canvass showed an
average estimated increase of 1915 In
value Of the tick-free cattle. More
than that, the eradication Of the ticks
as conducted under Federal supervf-
sion. permits the Introduction of high
class beef and dairy cattle and the
establishment of a more profitapie
livestock industry. Emphasis IS
placed by the department of the need
for a clear understanding of the pur-
pose of tick eradication and the necis-
sity for strict compliance with reguta'
tions to insure thoroughness- BY CO.

livestock. the lowly prairie dog.
ground squirrel and other rodents are
destroying range grasses worth $780,
100000 a year as pasturage for cattle
and sheep. Doubtless an equal am
cunt of farm crops are destroyed
yearly At least that is the belief of
f. w. Nelson, chief of the Biological
Survey.
Mr.. Nelson says that getting the
cooperation of the stockmen for the
destruction of predatory wild animals
was not easy, but this rodent business
is many times harder, because it is so
much more prosaic- He says there

Farm crops to the value of $50, ,000,-
900 and livestock to the value of more
than s5.000.O00 were saved to the
western states during the past year
by the activity of the United States
Bureau of Biological Survey. The
states of Oregon, Washington and
Idaho were saved 100000 at an ex-
penditure of 100000. Thus every so
cents spent. saved SIS, according to e.
v. Averill, head of the survey in Ore
gon, Washington and Idaho who has
his headquarters in Pendleton.
The Bureau employees supervised
the distribution of 1Ss,000 bushels of
poison bats for the destruction of ro-
dent pests. More than 100000 farm
ers cooperated in the work and 1t was
tho result of this distribution OF poi
son and the cooperation of these far
mers that the saving of 100000. 900
worth OF farm crops was accomplish
ed.
In addition to the saving in farm
crops just mentioned. 1t is estimated
that many million dollars worth of
grass on grazing ranges was saved to
the livestock industry. According to
a prominent Texas stockman. the COM
plete determination of the rodent
pest. prairie dogs. would so increase
tn amount of forage in the West as
to make possible the grazing of a.
900, 900 additional head of cattle. In
many states where the prairie dog
does not exist the destruction to range
by ground squirrels Is almost as great
as that by prairie dog in the prairie
dog states.
Tho saving of more than 100000
worth of livestock during the year
was accomplished by the destruction
of predatory animals by the hunters
and trappers employed by the bureau.
Since 1915, when the stockmen Sc
cured an appropriation from congress
for the use of the Biological Survey in
destroying these pests, more than
200. 900 stock killing predatory ami
mails have been destroyed. Three
fourths of these were coyotes. but
more than 1000 gray wolves were in
cluded. Stockmen agree that each
adult gray wolf on the range destroys
$1,000 worth of livestock every year
in an effort to appease his glutton-
Gus appetite. 1t will thus be seen
that were these 1000 wolves alive to-

datory animal pests held under con-

The destruction of prccstory ami
mails is about the most picturesque
and romantic of the many govern
ment activities. The figures given
above will also show that it is one of
the most important. Yet the other
branch of the economic division of the
Biological Survey is of even greater

,STRAUS URGES THRIFT DRIVE
TO INCREASE PRODUCTION

That the United States Government
inaugurate at once an intensive thrift
campaign. such as was conducted dur
ng the war. in order that production
may be increased, Is urged in a state
ment issued by S. W. Straus, presi-
dent Of the American Society for
Thrift, who says:
THE great lesson for all Americans
to learn today is that it is just as
patriotic to be thrifty In peace times
as it was in war times. Fundamental
needs call for a renaissance OF patri-
otto thrift in order that production
may be increased and the depleted
supplies OF wealth replenished, and IL
our Government will inauguFate
an intensive educational campaign
against all forms OF waste 1t will find
the people ready to respond with the
most loyal patriotism.
Therefore, a nationwide thrift
campaign, emanating from Washing
ton, will prove the most effective and
lasting solution Of the present econo-
mic and social problems OF our peo-
pie"

WIFE AND MAN HELD
INHUSBANDSD

MACoAIB, Ill. Aug. 15.-If lawyers
defending DR.. G. W. Alverson, who
with Mrs. Alice Clugston. is in Jail
here awaiting trial on the charge Of
the murder of the woman's husband,
were relying on a doubt whether the
death, was the result OF foul play, 1t
has been dissipated. DR.. Bert Row
an, of Bushnell, called in consulta-
ton a few hours before Clugston's
death, declared there was no Ques-
ton the man was murdered. 1t also
developed that it was DIR. Rowan's
statement that caused the inVestiga-
ton and autopsy.
1t is the action of the accused
couple, together with the stand taken
by Clugston, that battles the officers.
Apparently without protest. he con-
sented to the presence OF DR.. Alverson
IN the home, despite the gossip that
was afloat.
1t was learned today that the doc
tor and the woman planned trip to
Texas this fall, and that the husband
had knowledge of the affair and en-
tered no objection.
Officers are now investigating the
theory that financial reasons were be-
hind the removal OF Clugston, as he
carried a 81 800 insurance policy.

CROSS-U. S. CONVOY
MAKES RECORD RUN

GREEN RIVER, wyo., Aug. 10
Making a record run Of seventy-six
miles, the Motor Transport Corps
transcontinental train reached Green
River late yesterday afternoon without
operating or mechanical troubles OF
Importance to report.
There were a few miles OF good.
graded, dirt road, but during most of
the day the convoy followed deeply
rutted wheel paths along natural con-
tours with many holes and washouts.
A fifty-mile wind chilled the men
and raised clouds OF penetrating dust.
Twice the train ran into dust storms
of unusual severity, which obscured
vision entirely.
For twenty-five miles the way led
through passes and canyons with solid
sides rising 700 feet on each hand
fantastic in color and in line. The re-
mainder OF the run was through dry
parched country. entirely devoid OF
vegetation and trees, and strewn with
bones Of animals. The convoy camped
last night at the fair grounds, on the
banks of the Green river. Tomorrow's
run will take the train to Fort
Bridger.

R. R. STRIKE ENDED
IN new ENGLAND

BOSTON, Aug. 15-New England's
strike of more than $4,000 railroad
shopmen ended at midnight. when it
was announced that a majority vote
of striking employees OF the Boston
and Maine, and Boston and Albany
railroads favored returning to work
today.
Partial train service viii be re-
sumed at o'clock tomorrow, when
the entire force of striking railway
men will return to work pending me-
gotiations between the Railroad ADJ
istration and their national officials.
Leaders at union headquarters here
today said that despite the fact New
Haven shopmen voted to remain out
they are bound by an agreement
reached by the three federation syS-
TENS last week to return to work by
the vote of the majority. Under this
ruling orders were issued by union
leaders today instructing the New
Haven men to return to work tomor-
row without further delay.

FRANCE GIVES WAR
HONORS TO TOWNS

PARIS, Aug. BIAS a city a per-
sonality7 Can a town be brave? The
French government has answered
these questions in the Affirmative
Trace has rewarded 4 number Of
towns and cities~for their bravery
during the present and former wars.
Paris. itself. has recently been grant
ed the Croix de Guerre. Now the town
OF Bitche, out in Alsace-Lorraine, has
been added to the list of the brave by
being cited for the Cross Of the Legion
Of Honor, the present reward being
made for the towns service nearly
fifty years ago before il was torn
away from France.
The first recognition OF the bravery
OF cities was recorded in 1915, when
Napoleon, during the hundred days.
issued a decree authorizing the cities
Of Chalons-sur-Soane, Tournos, and
St Jean-de-Losne to place the Eagle
of the Legion Of Honor on the coat
of-arms Of the three communities for
their brave conduct during the cam
paigns OF 1914.
Until 1854 no more cities were ac-
corded war honors. Then in that year
Roanne was decorated. After 1870
the list became longer and included
SUCCESSFULLY Chateaudun, Belfort
Rambervillers, ST. Quentin, Dion.
Paris. Bazellies, Lille, vallenciennes,
Landreche. st. Dizier, and Peronne.
In 1915 the historic city of Verdun
was added to the list OF Legion OF
Honor recipients.
Bitche, the latest recipient, has for
fifty years been under German domi-
nation. The sacrifice and bravery OF
sian invasion of 1870 won the coveted
honor.
