taken by the farmers or their children.
1t is hoped that large number OF
boys and girls will participate in these
1 events this year. The Farm Bureau
is putting on this work for the fol-
lowing reasons:
l. To encourage every child to own
something, thus encouraging thrift
Q (. To encourage children to make a
study Of the amount of care and feed
necessary to produce livestock or
poultry.
8 To encourage friendly competi-
ton between the boys and girls over
| the county and awarding Of prizes
which will be commensurate with the
energy which they have put into their
| club work. The finals Of the club
work will be at the exhibit at the
County Fair. The Fair Association
! is setting aside substantial premium
! funds this year and are going to make
specially Of the club exhibit A
large tent is to be secured which will
be used solely for the club exhibit.
In addition, the present dance pavilion
will be remodled into a poultry show
room which will make splendid head
quarters for that division.
If the boys and girls are to be kept
on the farm the points which have just
been mentioned must be kept in mind
The attraction of the city and town
life Is so alluring that boys and girls
must be given a greater interest in
farming enterprises than in the past
il they are to stay on the farm. The
various clubs which the Farm Bureau
is offering is as follows: Pig club,
Dairy and Beef Calf club and Poultry
club
In the Pig club it will be necessary
for boy or girl to own a market pig
after it is weaned. Then the weight
of the pig should be taken and some
disinterested person should be an OBJ
server of this. Keep q record of the
care and attention given the animal
and to exhibit the animal at the county
fair in competition with other boys and
girls over the county. At the time Of
entry at the County Fair the weight
of the pig will be taken in order that
the gain made may be determined.
In the Calf club 1t will be necessary
for the boys and girls entering to own
grade heifer calf in the dairy club
or a pure bred heifer for the beef club.
Records should be kept Of all the work
spent on these calves and each boys
rate Of gain determined at the finals
to be made at the County Fair same
as in the Pig Club. There are al
ready over twenth boys and girls in
the Dairy Calf Club and applications
are now on hand for the beef club.
In the poultry club work it will be
necessary for the boys or girls to Sc
cure a setting of pure bred eggs. These
may be secured at home or purchased
of neighbor. A record should be
kept Of the care and attention given
the chickens and pen Of four ex-
hibited at the County Fair in the fall.
at which time prizes will be awarded
to the various boys and girls who made
the entries. Considerable number of
boys and girls have already taken up
poultry work.

high moisture content. If drilled
like small grain for hay, the use OF
less than one bushel for seed is not
advisable. From May to 20 has been
the best time for seeding soy beans fol
hay at the Iowa Experiment Station
Probably the best non-leguminious
emergency hay crop for Iowa is Sudan
grass, an annual crop. 1t not only
gives large yields at a low cost of seed
and handling but also it can be seeded
late and is quite dependable. Either
broadcasted or drilled sudan grass
should be seeded from May rs to June
Is. At the Iowa station rates for
seeding from 10 to rs pounds have CIV
en- practically the same yields, an
average of 3 IL tons for four years.
Some farmers over the state have
seeded Canadian field peas with oats.
This combination is satisfactory for
small acreages and gives a good hay
crop. However, it is almost too late
for this seeding and the field peas
are high in price.
Farm Machinery Scarce.
Inefficient machinery plays big
part in the production Of crops under
the present farm labor conditions.
During the present time when there
are few days available, all machin-
cry should be gone over and repair
parts for the whole season should be
listed and ordered There will be no
time during the busy season for this.
Railroad service is poor and it will
take the dealer longer time to get
parts than formerly.
There was tendency for farmers
during the war to get along with old
machinery, expecting to buy later. But
with the present prices and the prob
able shortage it seems likely that sew
eral years will pass before there will
be material reduction,
Since much OF the old machinery
cannot be repaired it would be advis-
able to place the order for the new
machinery right now whether it is a
plow, tractor. haying machinery or
harvesting machinery. II you wait
till the last minute to do this you are
liable to be disappointed, when you
need the implements to work with.
