BAINDRIDGE COLBY new
SECRETARY OF STATE
Appointment Of Former Republl-
can, VINO Helped Found Bull
Moose Party, a Surprise.

Washington in sending to the SEN
ate the nomination OF Bainbrldge
Colby OF New York TO succeed Robert
Lansing as secretary of state. Presi.
dent Wilson crea ed sensation in
political circles that approached that
caused by his dismissal of Mr.. Ian
sing The reaction In Congress and
elsewhere was unfavorabIe TO the
Presidents choice for what Is re-
garded as the most important place
IN his Cabinet, but there Is nothing
TO Indicate that such opposition TO Mr..
Colby as has developed will result
In failure of the senate to confirm the
nomination
The opposition, or more properly
criticism Of Mr.. Colby is partly based
on Mr.. Colby's frequent changes OF
party afiiliation. In addition, there Is
a general feeling of disappointment
over the failure of the President 10
appoint Frank L. Polk, now acting sec
retary Of state.
Mr.. Colby appeared at the executive
Offices with Raymond T. Baker, d.
rector of the mint, few minutes after
Mr.. Tumulty had told newspaper men
that Mr.. Colby would be nominated
for secretary Of state. Mr.. Tumuity
escorted Mr.. Colby to the White
House. where they found President
Wilson on the rear portico. The Presi-
dent and Mr.. Colby chatted for an
hour
Mr.. Colby left the Republican party
In 1912 to follow Roosevelt. When
Charles f. Hughes candidacy on the
Republican ticket was indorsed by
Roosevelt In 1916 Mr. Colby refused
TO follow his old chief and came out
for Wilson.
Mr.. Polk has asked the President
several times TO accept his resignation
on account Of his health, and IL had
been understood that he would retire
from the state department in a few
months. 1t is assumed that he will re
main as under secretary of stnte until
early summer.

new BUFFALO HERD
Bison on Increase Instead of
Becoming Extinct.
Yellowstone National Park Authorities
Say There Are More Than 100
Wild Buffalo In Park.

Yellowstone Park, Wyo.-Convincing
evidence that the wild buffalo Of Vel
lowstone national park, the last sur
viving remnant Of the great herds
which once roamed the western plains,
are on the Increase, instead of dying
out, as was feared, has been obtained
In the discovery Of a new group in the
southeast portion OF the park.
About fifteen animals were observed
evidently part Of the old herd, which
II is thought grew so large that some
of Its members were forced to break
away and seek new pasturage.
Definite information has been OBJ
tanned by park authorities that there
are now more than one hundred Of the
Wild buffalo In the park. Formerly
there were only about half that num-
Der.
When discovered. the new herd was
within Ave miles of one of the largest
hotels In the park and snapshot was
obtained of one OF the animals, a fine
bull, probably the first photograph ever
taken of wild buffalo.
Ordinarily the wild buffalo never
are seen by tourists and only rarely by
park authorities or even by the rangers
who, patrol the most. remote sections.

horse labor will be more noticeable
In the case of this crop than that of
any other crop grown, the average
acreage Of corn per farm Of those Wis
tied being $50 acres, which is 80 per
cent Of the tillable area Of these
farms. The remaining crops grown
on these farms, In order Of crop acre
age, are: Wheat, hay, oats. barley
and rye.
Only. the physical relationship of
tractor power to horsepower has been
considered. and no attempt is made
here to compare the relative costs of
doing work by these sources of power.
The number Of horses displaced on
these farms is also shown, but no in
ference has been drawn as to whether
the work Is being done more cheaply
as result Of the change.
Summary OF Results
Briefly summarized, these are the
principal facts brought out or en-
phasized by this study:
1. The number of horses disposed
Of on 141 farms averaging 846h acres,
on which tractors had been used for
year or over, was 2h per farm.
2. The average number of tillable
acres per horse increased from 26h to
1914 after the purchase Of the.tractor.
3. Nine operators out of 191 dis
placed horses entirely on blowing,
disking and narrowing.
A. Only 16 operators allowed their
horses to stand idle while the tractor
was in use.
8. The number of horses displaced
by the tractors on these farms was
governed by the number It was nee
essary to retain for corn cultivation
and other work current at the same
time which the tractor could not do.
g.. The horses remaining on these
farms are doing about 70 per cent Of
the tractiye work and tractors the, re-
mainder.
z. The tractor was used for an av-
erage Of 20 ten-hour days per year on
the home farm. No record of the
amount of custom work done was OBJ
tanned.
8. A three-plow tractor on these
farms does the work of 81 horses In
blowing, disking, narrowing and har-
vesting.
.. After purchasing the tractor, the
average size Of the farms was in
creased by % acres, or 1-3 per cent
10. The principal advantage Of a
tractor is its ability to do heavy work
In shorter time than 1t can be done
with horses.

INCREASE PROFITS BY
GRADING ALL PRODUCE
Farmer Should Sort According to
Size and Quality.
Grade Specifications Recommended by
Bureau Of Markets Have 6ene-
hted Farmers Materially Where
Practiced.

When a farmer orders box Of bolts
OF certain make and size he does
not expect to find thin layer of the
bolts specified on the top Of the box
and assorted bolts underneath. In the
world of commerce manufacturer
who pursued such practices would
soon be bankrupt
The same principle applies to the
sale of farm products, say specialists
of the bureau Of markets, United
States department Of agriculture. Be
fore sending produce to market the
farmer should sort II as to quality and
size. The bureau of markets from
time to time has recommended grade
specifications for various products,
and wherever these recommendation
have been followed satisfaction and
increased monetary returns have gen.
orally resulted. For instance, IL is es-
timated that In 1919 the potato grow
ers in Virginia increased their profit
a half million dollars by grading their
produce. Similar results are being OBJ
tanned In other states.

was found that tractors were operated
successfully In what would be termed
unfavorable as well as favorable sea-
sons, which would tend to show their
general adaptability.
While the section covered Is rough
ly called the corn belt, farm practices
are not uniform throughout the re-
gion. In most parts Of the eastern
corn-belt states commercial fertilizers
and lime are used, these being APP
piled by horse-pulled distributors. In
preparing the land for crops all the
ground may be plowed, or the small
grain may be seeded on the previous
years corn ground by disking or har-
rowing, without blowing. The latter
practice reduces work for horses or
tractor in the busy season. Whether
most of the blowing Is done In the fall
or only a small part, and the rest In
the spring, depends largely on loca-
ton. Where fall and spring blowing
are done In about equal amounts on
individual farms. the tractor Is used
more In the fall than In the spring,
and horses vice versa. II was found
that when all the reports obtained
were grouped together only five more
operators bowed In the fall than In
the spring, but the number of acres
plowed In the fall averaged 1871 more
per farm. The number OK men using
horses as an auxiliary source of power
was practically the same in each case.
Tractor Saves Labor.
Many farms have woodlands, and as
these are cleared the tractor is used
for saving wood for market, thus In
creasing the days of belt operation.
The scarcity Of labor In 1913 ham,
pered the gathering of crops. and In
the states on the eastern edge of the
corn belt the tractor was used to a
considerable extent in the hay field, to
The exclusion OF horses.
As corn Is the principal crop In this
region, the effect of the tractor on
Charlevoix county herald. (East Jordan, Mich.) 189?-1953, 1920-10-15

Tractor Investigations, with special
reference to the influence Of the trac-
tor on horse labor, were made In the
summer and fall of 1918 on 191 corn
belt farms. The operators of these
farms, all tractor owners, were WIS.,
tied by q representative of the United
States department Of agriculture, and
detailed information on all farm OPP
erations was gathered. The inquiry
covered full years work. so that the
part played by the tractor might be
noted In all Its relations.
The investigation was carried on In
Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri,
Kansas and Nebraska. In each Of
these states localities were visited In
which large number of tractors were
in operation. The information OBJ
tanned, while perhaps strictly and
fully applicable only to the farms Wis
tied, may be taken as a general guide
as to the results which might be OBJ
tanned In using tractor on any corn
belt farm of like type and Organiza-
ton.
The statements here made and con-
illusions drawn are not advanced as
being final, but simply as additions to
the available information regarding
farm tractors.
Range Of Conditions.
To obtain results which would give
as near a representative average as
possible, an effort was made to get re-
ports covering tractor operations I'M
der as many different conditions as
possible, and hence the conditions rep
resented range from adverse to IDEAL.
The farms visited ranged from fiat to
billy. The soils varied from the
heaviest gumbO through all the vari-
Gus loans to light, drifting, sandy
soils. Some of the gumbo soils now
under cultivation on these farms were
formerly unproductive, owing to the
inability of horses to pillow the soils.
With the introduction of the tractor,
this land has come under cultivation
and is now yielding big returns. 1t
