The column was struck by lightning

Charming though such a state of
affairs may be for an antiquarian or
student of folk lore. it has it's prac-

of each parish on the island, have in
termarried in such close degrees of
relationship for hundreds of years
past, that idiocy is very common.
The island families are not ashamed
of it. The presence of an idiot is
proof. as it were, that their blood
has been kept pure, sort of local

beCetuUcT -, 1919.
An island seems to have a person
atty of its own in a much greater de-
gree than an equal number of acres
on the mainland All OF us can re-
member the thrill we got in our
childhood days when we actually
landed on a real island in the river
or the Sound and experienced the de-
light of having water all around us.
Grownup people aren't very differ
ent. If they have holiday to spend,
an island always sounds attractive,
though it often turns out not to be.
AS for the people who live on them,
it is notorious that from the inhabi-
tants of Great Britain itself down,
they consider their little spots of land
the only places in the world worth
inhabiting.
Even in these days of steam trans
portation a water boundary cuts a
community off from the rest of tho
world and preserves the flavor of
quaint customs and traditions. I
should have expected that the Isle of
Wight, only few miles from the
busting ports of Southampton and
Portsmouth, would have lost most of
its insular characteristics. but such
is not the case. Tourist come from
all over England in summer and win
ter, but the islanders are content to
cook their food, make their beds.

says the Office of home economics of

The Farm and The Farmer
BY William r. sanborn

I'VE have been losing both lambs
and sheep over our way lately" said
H. r. Harley, Of Darke county, Ohio.
THE ewes sicken a few days before
lambing. The lambs come either
weak or dead and. as a rule the ewes
don't linger long. No one seems to
know the cause or to have been able
to save but a few of the sick sheep
Mr.. Harley lives in liberty town
ship and cites the case of a neighbor
who has also lost lot of young pigs;
in fact. six entire filters recently. He
says, too, that many fall pigs did not
survive the cold and that the pig crop
has been cut down a lot for next sum-
mer's feeding, citing cases where but
two or three youngsters have lived out
of large broods. Mr. Harley insists
that purebred hogs are the easiest to
handle, will mature faster, and are in
all ways most profitable, even as a
purely feeding proposition.
Farmers are credited with making
lot of money" he said, and many
Of them have done big gross bust,

WORK MOVES
SLOWLY; OUTLOOK
FOR WHEAT BAD

The semi-monthly crop report of
George G. Bryant, field agent Of the
cooperative crop reporting service for
Indiana, follows:
Farm work has been at a stand
still for the past two weeks. FreeZ-
ing weather, with snow and rain, prac-
Roads are in bad condition and grain
is moving to market very slowly. Car
shortage Is also a factor.
"The condition Of winter wheat can
not yet be determined. Weather for
the past two weeks has been very un-
favorable and some farmers are con-
sidering the advisability of sowing
oats in their wheat fields. Generally.
the prospect looks very gloomy. and
the crop has only started to green
up" in the extreme southern counties,
where the late sown now looks better
than that sown earlier.
"a few of the counties in the north
ern part of the state are making in
quiry regarding spring wheat seed,
but it is not thought much will be
planted this season.
Rye continues to look fairly good,
but has been pastured quite extern
sively and can not make a full crop.
Many Sugar Camps Closed.
THE shortage of farm labor has
caused some farmers not to open their
maple sugar camps this year. Wealth
er conditions also have been unfavor-
able to successful season.
"The high prices asked for all grass
and clover seeds as well as soy beans
and cow peas, are causing many farm
ers to abandon their plans to get
more of their land back to these crops.
1t now looks as if considerably more
than usual of the land will lie idle
this year.
Fruit prospects at this time are ex-
ceptionally bright. There was practi-

GLEN MILLER MARKET.

They had a fairly busy time and
a lively market at Glen Miller last
week. Including six cars Of cattle on
through billing, nearly 700 head of live
stock were handled. and lis farmers
received checks, according to Rome
Shurleys books. The stock handled
comprised 1853 hogs, $50 head Of cat
tie, 1O3 veals and 33 sheep. THE
market price was steady to strong on
light hogs" said Mr.. Shurley. "and
these sold at $3.50 on Saturday mar
ket. Heavy hogs weighing from $50
pounds up, were very dull, however,
and brought but S13.40 to $14, with
roughs selling at $40 to $12 per hun
dred. AS to cattle, the market ruled
dull and those lost all gain made in
the previous week. Veals were steady
at So to SIS. as to quality"
with the annual cleanup before
spring work begins, which generally
il is predicted that the present price
of hogs will not hold long" said Shur-
lev. on Monday. THE seven cars of
stuff shipped last week to the eastern
markets netted our farmers $13,963.30;
the veals alone costing US $2,5S6,15.
Otto Rich made the largest delivery

he collected $3.50"
