Tractor Gusts Horses
And Increases Acreage
On Corn-Belt Farms

Farmers Bulletin 1893 gives the
results Of tractor Investigations on
1911 corn-belt farms, made in 1918.
A summary Of results include the
following observations:
The number Of horses disposed
Of on 141 farms averaging 346 1-2
acres, on which tractors had been
used for a year or over, was 2 1-2
per farm.
The average number Of tillable
acres per horse increased from rs IL
to 3S IL after the purchase Of the
tractor.
The number of horses displaced by
the tractors on these farms was gov
erned by the number it was neces-
sary to retain for corn cultivation
and other work current at the same
time, which the tractor could not do
farms are doing about IS per cent
of the tractive work and tractors the
remainder
The tractor was used for an aver
age of twenty-nine ten-hour days
per year on the home farm. No rec
ord of the amount of custom work
done was obtained.
A three-plow tractor on these farms
does the work of S1-2 horses in
blowing, disking, narrowing and har-
vesting.
After purchasing the tractor, the
average size of the farms was in
creased by twenty-five acres, or Ia
per cent.
The principal advantage of a trac-
in shorter time than it can be done
with horses.

Quarantine Still on
In Southern Counties

The federal quarantine for cattle
fever tick has been replaced on the
parishes of Beauregard, Caldwell,
Grant, Jackson, Red River, Union,
Franklin, Pointe Coupee and Wash
ington in Louisiana, and Quachita
county, Arkansas, by order Of the
United States department Of agricul-
ture, effective September IA, 1920. The
effect Of the quarantine is that cattle
cannot be shipped interstate from
these regions except under the regu-
lations promulgated by the secretary
Of gariculture.
The five parishes named were re-
leased from quarantine on December
1, 1918, and the remaining four par
ishes named and Ouachita county
were released December I, 1917, but
the cattlemen and local authorities in
these regions have failed to cooper
ate in the "mopping-up" work, and
ticks have multiplied until they now
constitute a menace to nearby par
ishes and counties that are tick free
Or that are graduating ticks.
All other released regions in Louis
lana and Arkansas are doing salts
factory "mopping-up" work, and it is
believed that no other replacement
If quarantine will be found neces-

Mississippi Boy
Makes Five Cents
Grow to Dollars

Van Palmtree is a thirteen-year-
old boy who lives in Pamela coun--
ty, Miss. Van belongs to one Of
the many boys agricultural clubs
in that state. Many of the Missis-
sippi club boys have had unusual
success with their club projects, but
Vans success is noteworthy be-
cause of it's small beginning.
In April, 1916, cents was given
him by his teacher as a reward for
unusually good lessons and good be-
havior one day at school. With this
money, he bought chicken. 1t was
crippled, hence it's low price, but
much coddling on his part, saved it's
life, and it grew to maturity. The
next summer she raised a brood of
chickens which were sold for $3.50.
With this money Van bought a pig.
1t was a runt pig, but care and good
feeding for a few months made it
we'll worth the $3.50 for which its
owner sold it.
Immediately the young financier
bought a heifer calf with the price
paid him for the hog. Last year
and again this she presented her
owner with heifer calf, so he now
has a little herd OF three, all the
| outgrowth of that one nickel which
he invested four years ago.
The club boys cattle are scrubs,
but he is hoping to have something
better some of these days, and with
a boy Of his kind, to plan Is to do.
So it would not be surprising If the
nickel continued to grow and be-
come pure-bred herd before Van
| is sixteen.

PACKERSLAUNCH
PLAN TO FINANCE
CATTLE RAISERS

CHICAGO. - Representatives of
the Chicago packers recently sent a
circular letter to western stock rails
ers. railroad officials and bankers,
ASKING them 20 attend a conference
here on September 10, to discuss
plans for financing increased produc-
ton Of live stock.
The letter urged those interested
to NEE CreE~ with representatives of
the Federal Reserve Bank ito find out
whether there is not q better plan
by which the live stock industry
can be protected and financed, to the
end that confidence and normal food
production be restored and abnormal
shipments of young and breeding
live stock be stopped"
Signing the letter were J. Ogden
Armour, Thomas E. Wilson and l..
+. Swift, of the packers; Hale Hol-
den, president of the Chicago, Bur-
lington & Quincy railroad; NJ. A.
Trust & Savings Bank, Chicago; J.
8. Howard, president of the Ameri-
can Farm Bureau Federation; o. G..
Smith, president of the National
Farm Congress, Kearny, Neb., and
several uedoS OIL i've SUCK EdlSeTS
associations.
The summer of 1920 has produced
one Of the greatest crops of hay,
corn, pasture and other feeds known
il the history Of the country" he
letter said.
The drought last year, it added
had resulted almost in extinction"
of live stock production in parts Of
the west, so that prices for hides
and wool are demoralized with prac-
tically no market!
ct is Of the utmost Importance
that this matter be disposed Of
promptly, as the season for purchas-
ing live stock for feed lots and pas
concluded.
A school for southern cattle rails
ers was opened at the stockyards
recently with 230 Georgians as pu-
to study the scientific side. of cattle
raising and marketing.

Roller Ginning for The
Meade Cotton Instead of
The Sazv Ginning Urged

badly gin-cut, which is likely to in
jure the commercial standing of the
variety unless the need of roller gin
ming is clearly understood by farm
ers, the buyers and the manufacture
ers.
Aim to Keep Grade High
1t has been the aim of the friends
of Meade cotton to keep the product
on as high a grade as possible, and it
has been selling on the mari i for
prices equal to those paid >or sea
island of the same grade. 1T is al
ready being produced in considerable
quantities and is the nearest approach
to sea island-noW practically elm
mated by the boil weevil's invasion
Tests of the strength and spinning
qualities of the fiber have given
favorable results, so that the posi-
bility of substituting this type of
cotton for corresponding lengths of
sea island is definitely indicated,
Meade produces earlier than sea
island and develops bolls nearly twice
as large A heavier crop can be set
in a short period of time, and the
all tending to avoid damage by
boil weevil. Even when a large pro-
portion of the buds of young bolls
are shed, as result of severe Weevil
injury or other unfavorable condi-
tons, the Meade rows often yield
two or three times as much as the
sea island. Buyers accept Meade
fiber as practically equivalent to the
sea island At present there are
i1f Georgia and South Carolina, about
1000 acres being especially guarded
as the basis Of a supply of pure
seed.
