HATCH 500 EGGS TO
GET HUNDRED BULLETS

Don't count your chickens before

sion which should be thrown into

authorities.
we do count our chickens before
they are Matched. and so could ev-
cry person who keeps poultry say
poultry raisers. If we want 70

the season, we know from the rec,
ords we have kept for several
years that we must set 500 eggs, be
cause only one out of every FIVE pro-
duces a really good pullet.
we will get perhaps go chick
ems out of 500 eggs but many of
these will be cOckerels and some
will be culls, and with the usual
loss in young chickens. We find that
a good pullet comes from only one
in about every five eggs set Ere
Suently we do better than this and
so do many persons. but we figure
on the minimum in Matching"
Poultrymen are urging that farm
ers prepare their incubators and
brooder houses for early Matching,
which should be done either in
March or April, so that the outlets
may mature before cold weather
next fall and start laying.

per cent Of the total fire loss in the
United States. according to a report

resulting in the loss of $66.166.42O.
The greatest loss from these fires
occurred in the smaller towns and

MANY INDIANA BANKS
SUPPORT CLUB WORK

LAFAYETTE. Ind, Feb. 20
Sixty-fOur banks in 80 Indiana cOun-
ties during the past year purchased
either pigs, calves or sheep for
members Of the boys and girls
clubs and financed the members in
their initial livestock ventures, ac-
c%rdinG to figures obtained recently
by =. NJ. Shanklin. who has charge
OF the livestock club week in the
state. Replies were obtained from 50
of the 90 counties and il IS thought
that this total Of 81 would be boost
cd considerably if information were
obtainable front the other countries
Sevcnty-foIr banks, "a of which
are included in the original 81 pre-
viously named. are supplying in part
or all the prize money for some
form of boys and girls club work.
such as corn growing potato Iroduc-
ton poultry raising. etc. These
prizes range from a few dollars TO
several hundred.
In nine counties of the state, or
CARNATIONS Of the bankers have been
perfected for the purpose Of sup
porting club work. The county bank
ers' associations have divided up the
work and the financial responsibility
for the clubs. In several more coun-
ties. all the banks are supporting
club work, although they have no
bankers organization. Only six coun-
ties OF the state have no banks that
are aiding in club work in some way
or other.
Bankers generally are showing
a strong tendency to support boys
and girls club work, because they
realize that the better farmers the
youngsters make when they grow
up. the more prosI erous will be the
community and the more business
for the bank" said Mr.. Shanklin.
The liberal policies of the banks
enables the club members to obtain
credit for the purchase of certified
seed. registered pigs. calves. etc. and
furnishes opportunity for real agri-
cultural progress Most Of the bank
ers see a really big opportunity TO do
something for the boys and girls OF
their community and / believe the
next few years will see a great ex-
tension of this sort of work not only
I'm Indiana, but in other states as
well"

These places are: The inside of

cially over heating places and fuel
bins, under and around stairs; in

Clay. secretary OF the Metal Lath

when any man is building q
home, if he has his attention called
10 these points at the right time,
there would be very few fires. A
a rule he has figured everything else

MORE lEGUMES NEEDED
TO AID CROP YIELDS

The backbone of agriculture in
Indiana is sufficient legrmes on ev-
cry farm. Glover is king Of the
legumes. but the acreage in Indiana
is very low compared to what it
should be, running from only nine
tenths of an acre out Of every 100
acres Of cultivated crops in one
county, 10 Il out of every 100 acres
in the leading county. according to
data recently obtained by w. A

be carefully done, so that a good
stand may be obtained. The field
should be well drained, soil that is
not acid, and plenty of phosphate
should be available. These are the
three fundamentals. but a liberal
application of manure will aid the
stand greatly. Where clover has
failed. soybeans will make either a
good hay or seed crop, or also for
hogging down"
More leGumes for Indiana must
be the watchword. if this state is
TO maintain its important position
in the agricultural world, because
only as more legumes are grown
can more livestock be kept at a
profit, and only by keeping more
livestock can soil fertility be most
economical ly maintained.

DECREASE SEEN
IN FARM HORSES
Addition of Automobiles on
Farms is Given As Cause
For Displacement.

Horses in this country reached
their maximum in 1918 and since
then have been gradually decreased,
according to data compiled by the
bureau Of crop estimates. United
States department of agriculture.
While this statement applies TO the
United States as a whO.e, the in
formation secured by the bureau re-
lates primarily 10 the supply OF
horses on farms and ranches. the
gradual decrease OF which is at
tributed 10 moto.' vehicles. That the
decline of the horse on farms is not
due merely TO the use OF passenger
automobiles is indicated by a sur
vey recently undertaken by approx
mately $4,000 crop reporters, rep
resenting the bureau in all sections
OF the country. They have reported
the names Of more than $4,000
farmers who use motor trucks on
their farms. But the extent to
which these trucks displace horses
is prOblematical In many cases
the introduction Of "A truck on a
farm indicates provision for in
creased hauling rather than an
actual reduction in the number of
horses used.
The estimated number Of horses
on farms and ranches January l Of
this year was 21,1O9.OOO, a decrease
of 573, 900 head. or II percent, COM
pared with year ago. The total
value Of these animals this year is
estimated at S1,992.542,O00 as
against $2,114,S9TOOO last year.
This means an average value per
head for horses of all ages of S9439.
compared with $685. a year ago.
The average value per head ten
years ago was S1OS.O3. From these
figures IL is not difficult to under
stand why the horse market is re-
garded as unsettled and the future
equally uncertain. The best demand
during the past year has been in the
south, while decreases have occurred
on the western ranges. During the
past two years the increased de-
mand for feed for high-priced meat
animals has made it relatively more
costly to keep a horse on the farm.
