The Farm and The Farmer
Instead of planting wheat put in and was
BY William r. Sanborn

Instead of planting wheat | put in
50 acres of rye last fall" said Warner
Fleisch, of Boston township, and will
pillow it under as soon as weather per-
mits.' Mr.. F1eisch says he will plant
100 acres in corn, and will have use
for II as he wintered As brood sows
and having no feeders on hand he is
in shape to await the outcome of the
hog market later on. We should have
S18 to $50 hogs again" said he, lin
view Of the high price of corn and of
everything we feed porkers, also be-
cause the pig crop has been cut down
everywhere, which shortage should
have due effect next fall" Mr. Fleisch
states that, in spite of the high prices
Of potatoes, he doesn't think the farm
ers will put in more than enough to
supply their own tables, nor will he.
Wheat Looks Some Better.
According to Clifford keene, of
Fountain City, wheat has "greened up
considerably and is looking more
promising" He anticipates that the
joint elevator project of New Garden
and Franklin townships will be all ar
ranged for by May at which time d
meeting will be held at Fountain City
to close matters up for the obtaining
or a Cnartef and the issuing of stock.
Scarcity and high prices on seed pota-
toes will prevent even the usual plant
ing in some cases, in Mr.. Keene's
view.
Is Testing Seed Corn.
A bit late perhaps, should the wealth
or warm up, but at that much better
late than never, if you have not yet
tested your seed corn. This testing
of all kinds of seed is a serious bust
ness, it will mean so much after
harvest days to so many. The world S
food supply depends on the kind of
seed sOwn and the generosity of the
increase.
In corn testing it is recommended
that eight kernels be taken from each
ear. A doll 12X54 inches will accom-
odate 20 rows. allowing space for seven
or eight kernels to the row, thus test
ing out 20 ears. The latest testing
apparatus at Purdue consists of a
modified rag doll and germinator box
outfit which discovers the corn which
may be diseased, although it shows 100
per cent termination.
The selection of disease free corn
is of great importance, for disease or
ganism not only reduce production but
cause rots. Bulletin No. 236 gives com
plete information as to this method

The plan of officers of the Indiana
Federation of Farmers Associations
and members of the permanent live
stock committee of the organization
to have an agent at the Indianap polls

of the producers met a snag Tuesday

meet with the approval of the mem
bers of the indianapolis Live Stock
Exchange.
The farmers had made arrange
ments for the employment of a live
stock agent. who was to assume his
duties beginning next Monday. Ac-
cording to their plan, producers would
have the opportunity to consign live
stock TO any commission merchant
through the care of the farmers rep

Randolph Farmers Are Way
Behind on Spring Work

WINCHESTER, Ind, April 2S.-The
farmers of this locality are much dis
turbed over weather conditions. Not
for many years have they in this
vicinity been so badly retarded with
their spring work. The scarcity of
help, the cold weather. and the large
amount of rainfall has stopped all
work.
Farmers who have their oats out,
say they have little hopes of a good
crop, since the weather has been so
unfavOrable for growth.

lt Kept Non GUESSING.

A fine example OF sustained inter-
est can be studied in the movie when
a Man Loves" Earl williams plays
the part of the lover and by the way.
Earle Is having too many love parts.
He isn't registering as no should. To
watch his face during the movie men,
toned above, one comes to the as
founding conclusion that Earle Is not
playing whole heartedly and freshly.
Either he needs more new love part
ners, or he needs rest.
Sustained interest, however, in book,
play or movie is difficult to maintain.

Really Earle should have taken the
thing to heart, for he had a glorious
setting. But the movie actors are like
the rest'o of us and love grows monoto-
nous for steady diet.
But what struck me so forcfbIy was
that in this little playlet in picture
form one could not see the end. Earle
loves and wishes to marry the little
black-eyed japanese lady. Parental
objection is strong of course. Earl mar
