POULTRY CULLING WORK
STARTS JULY 18TH

The work of poultry culling is far
more important than the average
man gives credit. Probably due to
the fact that so many men leave the
poultry for the women folks to look
after and for that reason is more or
less uninterested in the kind Of
chickens he is producing.
1t is a known fact that from 35
to so percent of the farm flocks are
non-producers and from state statis-
tics of last year show us that about
25 percent of the chickens raised in
Iowa are tubercular.
With these two known facts the
poultry extension department Of this
state are sending men into the vari-
Gus counties who are thoroughly
competent in this work.
Beginning in July, poultry owners
should begin the study of their flock
with view to eliminating the poor
layers.
After July LIST many hen that laid
go on vacation. Few will come
back in September.
A few of them will come back and
produce reasonably we'll in the fall
months. Most OF them will stay on
vacation through the summer and
fall and lay a few eggs before cold
weather sets in and then quit laying
until spring. These birds should be
culled from the flock in July, August
or September.
As a rule, the earliest moulter,
that is, the bird that goes into a
complete early mott, is Improbable
and should be put on the market.
There are three types of culls to
look for.

the spring, laying only few eggs.

ADMINISTRATION FOE
TO FARMERS OF NATION

That the Wilson administration
has discouraged agricultural produc-
ton is the charge made by the re-
publican publicity association in dis
cussing the agricultural plank of
the republican party which promises,
"'An end to price fixing and i'll
considered efforts arbitrarily to re-
duce prices of farm products which
invariably result to the disadvantage
of both the producer and consumer
"As every farmer knows" the
statement continues, practically ev-
cry move of the Wilson administra-
ton during the war relative to agri-
cultural products and prices tended
to discourage production. For in
stance, congress passed law guar
anteeing not less than certain
price for wheat. There was a uni
versal understanding that this was
a minimum price guaranteed by the
government to insure the farmers
against any very great loss. The
Wilson administration. however,
made this minimum price the maxi
mum price through the licensing
system which gave it practical
monopoly of the marketing OF grain.
The result was that in almost every
state there were farmers who pro-
duced and sold grain at less than
the cost of production. OF course.
there were many who made money
at the prices fixed by the admins
tration, but The records show that
there were also thousands of farm
ers who sold their grain at less than
the cost of production.
1.-THE republican PLATFORM is cor
rect in the assertion that price fix
ing and arbitrary reduction OF prices
of farm products result to the disad-
vantage of both the producer and
consumer. The consumer may
reap a temporary benefit from the
reduction of prices paid to agricul-
tural producers. but such reduction
of prices must inevitably result in
diminution of production with conse-
quent lessening of the supply and the
ultimate increase in price due to a
demand which cannot be filled. Far
better would 1t be for the consumer
il he paid an excessive price in the
beginning and encouraged produc-
tion which would bring about an
adequate supply and reduce the
price through competition among
the producers. ~
"In other lines of industry than
agriculture the administration pur-
sued course opposite to that which
1t followed in determining the price
of farm porducts.S In a large pro-
portion of the contracts for the
manufacture OF various commodi-
ties needed by the government dur
ing the war, from munitions to can
tonments and ships. cost-plus pla-
of determining the compensaS. on
was adopted. Thus the producer of
those commodities was given abso-
lutte assurance that he could sustain
no loss, for in any event the cost OF
production was guaranteed to him
and by adding to that certain
percent of profit the government en-
couraged him to make his cost of
production as high as practicable.
The administration took over the
railroads and guaranteed return
on the property; IL took over large
number of Industrial plants under a
similar guaranty. 1t raised the
wages of railroad employees and by
its contract policies virtually raised
Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1920-07-08

the wages of all city employees. At
the same time that 1T was doing this,
it was restricting the price that
could be obtained by the farm
er for his food products and making
it more difficult for him to obtain
help to plant, cultivate and harvest
his crops.
1.-THE only instance in which the
administration has by it's act aided
the farmer in securing an increased
price for his products was the case
of the Louisiana sugar. Even in
that instance the ruling of the de-
partment of justice was made in
such a way that it not only enabled
the Louisiana producer to get a
higher price but it practically en-
abled every owner OF sugar where
ever produced or at whatever cost to
exact the same high price which
the department fixed for the Louisi-
ana product"

Wolff went into today's match an outsider, a dark horse.
 But at the end of the first nine it looked as if the experts would have to revise their estimates, for the match was all squar eat the turn and Wolff was playing just as good golf as the Edgewater veterans, each with medal score of 40 or five above par.
 On the first nine Evans short game was uncertain and Wolffs putting was ineffective. But after the turns Evans began playing steadier game, and, although Wolff, too, became steadier and better as the day wore on, Evans never was down nor was the match ever squared again after the Chicago man won the 36S-yard twelfth with a par four going into the lead.
 Evans increased his lead to two by winning the fifteenth.
 Wolff won back a hole on the next green, but Evans proceeded to win the seventeenth and eighteenth in order, ending the morning play up.
 The afternoon round began with a halving off the first two holes. Evans won the long third with birdie four the only birdie hole of the match-and was four up. The fifth went to Wolff when Evans run-up second nestled in a trap and he smothered his out. The three succeeding holes were perfectly played, Wolff redeeming some rather cratic driving by splendid recoveries.
 On the ninth a fine approach putt enabled Evans to get a four, which was good enough to win the hole and give

STUFFY STEWART GETS BACK INTO

Stuffy Stewart, peppery guardian ot the middle station for the Barons, will get back into harness this afternoon when the locals start their series in Mobile. Stewart was called to his home in Jennings, Fla, last Thurs day on account of the death of his mother, and Ralph Croll, utility man Tor the Barons, has been handling the assignment.
 Stewart is badly needed by Boss Moley, as one other regular, Al Ellis, IS out of the game on account or an injury. Croll will likely take FL lis outheld berth and Peters VIII be taken from the gardens. This will strengthen the defense as Peters aon iaimto be an outfelder at all. US not in his line, says Pete.
 The Barons lost the first encounter of Fridays twin engagement largely through Peters error of an easy fly ball to the right garden. ~- However, Peters redeemed himself. as he broke up the second contest with a smash ing hit in the seventh with the bases populated.
