DAIRY INDUSTRY IN
 STOUT COMPETITION
Specialist Outlines European
 Needs for Products.
Work of Bureau of Markets in Gather ing and Distributing Accurate in- on-Standardization of
 Methods Urged.

Prepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture)
 European needs for dairy products may be largely supplied from pre-war sources within two years time, and the American dairy industry may again feel foreign competition on home mar kets." This is the conclusion of Ray c. Potts, specialist in marketing dairy products, bureau of markets, speaking before recent meeting of food off cials in New York city.
 In explaining the work of the bureau of markets in gathering and distribut- ing accurate market information on dairy products, MT. Potts pointed out the Stabilizing effect of such informa- ton prices and stated that 1uctuat- ing prices at wholesale make for wider margins between producer and con sumer, while Stabilization permits greater economy in distribution.
 Recent monthly reports on milk prices in POO cities have called atten- ton to the wide difference in distribu- ton costs prevailing in different sec tions of the country. While economies in distribution are possible in some communities the speaker pointed out that a saving of 10 per cent in the cost of distribution would make only a very slight saving to the individual consumer A much greater loss to the public, he said, lies in paying top mar ket prices for inferior qualities of dairy products. He advocated stand ardization of methods of production and distribution with special atten- tion to more uniform quality of prod uct as one Nthe great needs of the dairy indus

Scrub Sires Are Menace to Those

Services of HoIstein Bull and Hamr- shire Boar Offered to CorVnunity Show Interest in "Better Sires
 Better Stock"

=Prepared by the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture.)
 As practical evidence of their inter- est in the Better Sires-Better Stock" campaign, which is gaining recruits rapidly in a majority of the states, the owners of large stock farm in Flor ida have written the bureau of anil nal industry that the Hoistein bull and Hampshire boar owned by them have been made free community sires. The services of a Duroc boar will like wise be made free as soon as he is old enough. All are fine animals, with pedigrees.-
 "We give the services of these ani-. malS free" write the owners, "becauSe this region is cursed with scrub sires. They roam everywhere at will and are great menace to those keeping purebred stock. Please tell us what to do to have our farms enrolled in your campaign and our sires recorded"
 The offer of the bull is made with the desire to improve the milking quail ftieS of cows. The owners of the bull specify that all cows brought for Serv- ice must be tick-free. A fee is charged for service to registered Holstein cows.

 Probably there never was greater in terest in various forms of irrigation than at present. Three methods are popular in sections of the Eastern states where conditions justify the ar tificial application of water to crops. They are spraying, subirrigation and surface irrigation. But the fOrehand- ed farmer who is making plans for his spring work hesitates to undertake new spray irrigation or subirrigation projects because he is well aware of the expense with prices at their pres ent level. It Is timely, therefore, to suggest the benefits of surface irriga- ton which do not involve so heavy an outlay of money
 Two Methods Employed.
 Two methods, furrow irrigation and flooding. are employed. Both are ex-: tensively used in arid sections of the country, and their adaptation to east ern conditions is not difficult As it's name implies, furrow- irrigation is merely the running of water down fur rows between rows of plants, while ir- rigation by flooding is the spreading of water over fields, usually those in small grains, alfalfa or grasses. Com mon field crops are not often irrigated in the East, yet in occasional instances cotton, corn and potatoes have been treated in this way with profit; like wise fruit trees are benefited by irriga-

HOW RHEUMATISM
 BEGINS

The excruciating agonies of rheuma-- Hsm are usually the result of failure of the kidneys to expel peisons from the system. If the irritation of these uric acid crystals is allowed to continue, in- curable bladder or kidney disease may result. Attend to it at once. Don't resort to temporary relief. The sick kidneys must be restored to health by the use of some sterling remedy which will prevent a return of the disease
 Get some GOLD MEDAL Haarlem Oil Capsules immediately. They have brought back the joys of life to count less thousands of sufferers from rheu- gall stones, gravel and other affections of the kidneys, liver, stomach, bladder and allied organs.

 Combination Systems.
 Many farms are adapted to a combi> nation of spray and furrow irrigating systems, the former to irrigate seed potatoes and small patches of garden truck, while the latter may be used for crops planted in rows. When com bination of this sort is adopted the crops under spray usually are those on rolling or hilly lands where 1t Is not easy to frrigate by furrows. Where the lay of the land is favorable the comparative cheapness of the furrow method recommends it above the more expensive spray method. In most in- stances where the furrow method is used the crops are planted in rows far enough apart to permit of cultivation by a horse-drawn implement.
 information in Bulletins.
 The department of agriculture has for distribution Bulletin S99 entitled Surface Irrigation for Eastern Farms" which contains valuable in- formation for the farmer interested in surface irrigation. It treats in a prac- tical way the problem of obtaining water supply, how to convey the water to the land, and the different types of pumps and other equipment neces. >ary to make the system practical There are also valuable suggestions re- garding the methods of applying the water to the crops.

Eight thousand five hundred feet above Puuokeokeo, the scene of the 1916 outbreak, and seven hours ride from Waiohinu, according to the story told by eyewitnesses who discov- cred the sources of the new lava flow and who have been within mile of the blistering white and red fountain.
 Miss Louis MacMillan of Honolulu, who has just returned from first hand inspection of the eruption of Mauna Loa, tells the following eye witness story of the spectacle:
 '4The still hot rock under our feet commenced to scorch our shoe seles after five minutes or so of standing on it. A foot back of where I was standing, a red-hot bed of lava with a few cool stones scattered over it, like a bed of coalS with few small clfnk- CTS on top, glowed constantly. Six feet away on the other side a gas flame. several feet high played con tinually over a patch of bare red-hot rock, and anywhere we looked into the cracks, the fiery, uncooled core could be seen eyilly gleaming. Every step had to be taken with care not to put. the foot down into any of these cracks.

Denver.-The terrified refusal of an Airedale dog to enter the basement of house in this city has brought to light evidence of what the police au- thorities believe may be the clew to one of the most mysterious crimes in the history of the city. The right foot of young, white woman was found in the furnace and there was abundant evidence that the rest of the body had been cremated- Ashes from the fur nance were found buried in the soft earth under the back porch.
 A bloody corset cover, black army necktie with dark stains upon it and pieces of flannel underwear with ap- parent bloodstains on them, were sift- ed out of the ashes and debris by the police.
 Dog Shows Fright.
 The discovery was made by James McMillan who rented the house and moved into it a few days before. Nc Milan tried to put the dog in the basement, but the animal whined and refused to remain there alone, show ing every evidence of extreme fright.
 The peculiar conduct of the dog de cided MT. McMfllan to investigate the cellar.
