Flour is being offered by the United
States Grain Corporation at low prices
compared with what the mills are ask
ing and the retailers are getting.
Good soft winter wheat fiours are to
be had from dealers and department
stores in this vicinity at $1.55 in 251a
pound sacks. This package has been
found the most popular seller among
retailers aeld the flour is being put up
largely in sacks of this weight to pop
ularize it with consumers. The Grain
Corporation, which is backed by the
United States government, is endeav-
oring to reduce the cost of -four to
consumers by this method. Flour is
being taken freely and within a week
more than $4,000 barrels have been
sold. 1t is 81 to SO and in some in
stances $4 a barrel lower than flour
equally as good is selling for by re-
tailers in various sections. In handling
this flour care should be taken as it
requires less water than the spring
wheat fiours and makes equally as
good bread and far better pastry.

Radium Economy.

The use of radirm on large scale
Unexpectedly involves danger of
loss, and this factor has been big
one In inducing hospitals and clinics
with gram or more of the element in
use to utilize radium emanation in
stead of applicates containing the
radium itself. There has been in
stalled In Pittsburgh laboratory an
elegant and useful apparatus for the
collection. publication and tubing Of
radium emanation obtained from a
salt of the element. It differs from
earlier apparatus In that liquid air is
replaced by chemical means of puri-
flying the emanations. which are felt to
be more reliable.-Scientitic American.

Famous Art Collection.

The unique collection of Chinese
works of art made by the late Ii Hung
Chang, one-time viceroy of China,
which for years collectors Tried vainly
to acquire, has finally been bought by
Swedish syndicate. The purchase
price is understood to have been more
than million krone (nominally about
$2S0.000), but the intrinsic value of
the collection is incalculable.
Ii Hung Chang died In 1901. He
had collection Of works of art larg-
er than anything Of its kind in the
empire. 1t included numerous old
paintings. bronzes of great worth and
ancient ceramics. The bronzes date
from time before Christ, and the
paintings were done from the tenth
TO the twelfth centuries.

FORCING SOCIALISTiC
POLICIES

The government seems determined
TO keep alive insurance bureau aud
is sending out tons of publicity aud
mail matter to induce the millions
of service men and their families to
keep up their policies.
Most intelligent service men have
dropped their insurance taken out
with the government during war
times for the very simple reason that
they do not get as much for their
money as private insurance offers.
But in Washington ID, c.. there is-.
an immense bureau with thousands
of clerks having political pull ana
they are 10th to let go of job on.

are not subject to competition.
II is hard to retire into the open
fields and fight for your living after
1t has once been assured to you un-
der government, where no one calls
you down for inefilciency or II you
happen to be loafing on the job.
But the war is over and as fast as
practical the government should get
on TO a peace footing and get out
OF the socialistic program and get
back to normal conditions where the
door OF opportunity swings wide
open.
The American government has
been founded on individual effort
aud the right OF private initiative and
the man or woman who had better
service to offer or ain improved idea
had chance to make the demon
stration.
Paternalism and goyernmentalized
public services render the central
powers OF Europe devoid OF militia
tive and unable to stand before the
impact of American armies where cv-
cry private soldier was a leader.

EiGHTY-SEVEN EARTH
QUAkES IN 1919

Though the general public may
mt be aware Of the fact, the United
States usually experiences. from 100
to 200 earthquakes each year. This
is shown by reports sent to the
Weather Bureau, United States De-
partment OF Agriculture, from the
large number OF stations which ii
maintains in various parts OF the
country and from its voluntary coop
orators who send In notices OF earth
Iquakes observed in their respective
localities. The number of disturbance
|es last year was 81 and the number
reported the previous year was 1877,
A very large proportion OF these. Of
course, are so slight as to be entire
ly unnoticed gy the public. On the
Pacific coast slight earth tremors are
of sufficient frequency to cause no
comment whatever. The ajority OF
quakes reported are from that. re.
gion.
One surprising fact however shown
by the summary OF earthquake re
ports for 1919, which has recently
been prepared Is that more than a
score of thsee disturbances occurred
in the Mississippi valley. The region
comprising southern Illinois. south
ern Indiana, western Kentuckq, and
western Tennessee experienced TWEEN
ty quakes, while one was recorded in
northeastern Missouri, two immedi-
ately south Of Wichita, Kan. and one
in Washington, d. C. Many disturb
ances in the total number reported
would hive wholly escaped attention
but for the seismographs. which are
so delicate that the usually detect a
violent shock, no matter in what part
OF the world II occurs.

PREVENT STINkING
SMUT IN THE WHEAT

Don't delay In treating spring
wheat seed for sinking smut"
This Is the message OF cereal spe-
cialists in the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture to spring wheat
growers In the northwest, where the
sinking smut or bunt OF heat is pre-
valent and annually causes great
losses.
Sinking smut of wheat may be

prevented readily by treating the seed
win formaldehyde or with bluestone.
formaldehyde is very generally used
IN the region east OF the Rock,
Mountains. In the Pacific coast states
bluestone is more commonly employ
ed, because II usually gives better
results; this is doubtless because the
soil infestation occurs in that region.
The best method of applying the
formaldehydc solution is by the So
called dipping method which is as
follows: Prepare a solution of for
maldebyde using one pound to forty
gallons of water Place some of the
solution in a tub or barrel pour the
grain to be treated slowly into the
solution stirring thoroughly, so that
the smut balls and trash may float

United States Department of Arricul-
ture, who recommend that strong
terminating seed OF ensilage yarie-
ties from regions farther south be
planted two or three weeks earlier
than the home grown seed which is
planted for grain production. Such
a planting program works to the de-
cided benefit OF dairymen and other
growers Of ensilage corn in the north
ern states.
When large vaieties OF ensilage
from as far south as Virginia or Mis-
souri,, for example, ale planted in re-
gions farther north late in May, they
make rapid, long jointed. tender,
succulent growth, and are. so green
when fall frosts come that they are
heavy TO handle, low in feeding val
ne and make ensilage which Is sloppy
and too sour. But when planted in
April or very early in May. they
make a slower, harder growth; they
better withstand spring frosts and
summer droughts, reach better ma
turity nd produce more grain than
when planted later Fall frosts. not
spring frosts. are most to be feared.
Early maturing, home grown varie-
ties do not need such early planting
and will not be benefited in the way
that large ensilage varieties are. The
latter, though somewhat dwarfed by
early planting, make ample stalk
growth and yield more and ripper
grain and make richer and sweeter
ensilage. The early planting SUP
plies the age necessary for maturing
and reproduction. Reproduction is.
in this case. grain production.
In growing ensilage crops in the
north one should judge the crop by
its feeding value, not by it's height
or weight or the amount of labor ne
eessary to silo II.
Early cultivation pays as II dries
and warns the soil surface. II the
soil remains wet, It stays cold and
the young corn can grow, whereas
stirring causes the surface to dry
rapidly. after which 1t will absorb
heat and feel warm on the hand-a
condition favorable to good growth.

REGULATING LIVE
STOCK SUPPLY

To regulate the supply of live
stock according to the demand and
keep an even flow onto the market is
the one big problem OF the farmers
in Indiana and of states in the corn
belt, according to the Indiana field
agent OF the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture. To accomplish
this a schedule has been prepared by
the field agent in cooperation with
the Indiana Federation OF Farmers
associations. and meeting OF the
ofsasization was held in every town
ship in the state on March 81 to
supply information to the officers OF
the federation. This will enable them
70 advise the farmers in regard to
heir feeding plans for the future.
