The trial jury recommended len

Xmas Clubs Prove
That Thrift Pays

a practical demonstration of the
value to community of the thrift
idea was furnished by the checks
mailed out yesterday and today by
the Grand Valley National bank. as a
result of the Christmas clubs started
year ago. The sums mailed out 10
c ub members by the bank aggregated
something like $4,000, declares the
Grand Junction Sentinel. Continuing
it says:
"The Christmas club idea is based
on a realization OF the cumulative
value of regular saving. however
small. The sums deposited range
from beginning of 1 cent a week to
s5. the paid-up sums which were dis
tributed yesterday running from
s12.75 TO $3.50, and most of the meu-
bers admit that the deposits made q
part Of weekly budget of expenses,
have caused no hardship whatever.
The idea is sound economic one, and
the bank is planning more clubs as
part of next years program"

WHAT SHALL WE DO WITH OUR
APPLES?

It's perfect shame TO see the beau
tiful apple crop of the United States
being at least one-half wasted.
The distribution of perishaoles 10
our greatest agricultural problem.
Millions OF hungry people would be
glad to buy the surplus of fruits and
vegetables II some plan could be de-
vised to bring IT TO market at prices
which they could afford to pay.
We cannot even make our windfahs
into cider according to the rulings OF
the federal authorities, unless we OBJ
ligate ourselven to walt until the cider
has turned to yingar. Cider has the
power. and exercises It. OF generating
more alcohol than the law allows. A
farmer can sell sweet cider containing
less than one-half of one per cent OF
aiiohol but unless he drugs 1t. his
cider will not behave. The farmers
don't like II either.
There are enough apples lying on the
ground in Michigan or in Indiana.
New York or any other state. to sup
ply the world with vinegar for a hun
dred years and vinegar would be so
cheap that 1t would not pay to buy
containers.
In some localities where barrels
and baskets are high and fruit is plen-
tifui. local jam factories are being es-
tablished. but even this will not prove
to be the way out because for the
greater portion of the year there will
he no apples or other fruit and the
plant will have to lie idle.
Apples in the cities are selling as
high as Ave to seven dollars per
bushel and yet there will be thous-
ands of apple trees bearing beautiful
fruit which will never be picked.
This is problem for all farm bu-
reaus.
What shall we do to prevent this
waste in perishables?

The average farmer feeds very lit

upon during the summer is gone and
egg production needs much protein.
Hens on test produced between Ss

fsrsnt From Way They Are
Prepared For Market
Early fall is the time Of year when
hog growers should select from the
spring crop Of pigs. the sows to
be fed a small amount Of corn and
now ON until the breeding season these
sows should be fed in q manner differ
snt from the way they were to be fat
tsned for market purposes. Good for
age crops are practically a necessity.
A self feeder containing a good quail
ity of thrashed oats makes good feed
for these sows. In addition, they may
be used as next years dams. From
some shorts or middlings, and fish
meal or tankage.
Careful attention should be given to
the selection of sows for breeding pur
poses. First, they should be selected
from a good-sized litter from litter
whose dam has good sucking qualities.
The brood SOW should be of a good
rangy type, with good strong arched
back, deep sides, be 'good-footed"
animal with good, strong legs and pas
terms and rather upstanding from the
ground.
The SOW that takes plenty of exer-
else freely is the one that is most
likely to make desirable brood SOW
Do not select a SOW from a litter
whose dam is cross and irritable. The
SOW should be gentle and easily
handled.
Attention should also be paid to
the eyes. A blind SOW is likely to
step on and iniure her pigs. Care
full attention to these details at this
time will have tendency to add to
the number OF pigs that may be brot
to maturity.
