and "a consequent loss of milk that he
could not understand; the cows were
apparently shedding all the hair from

would either sunburn or chill, and
would get sore: he watched the cat

them and watch them, then had a
veterinary look them over and to find
The cause was impossible
Among tho herd was n strong
healthy ycariing calf that had kept
his hair. In watching him they got
wise to tho trouble. for IL was this
calf that caused It. Every time he
caught a COW lying down he would
start in and cat the hair off her back

The calf was put where he could not

THE FARMER TAKES
The AFFIRMATIVE

At II A. m. on March 5. 1921, Henry
c. Wallace. Des Moines. Ia, became
Secretary of Agriculture of the Uni
ted States. Mr.. wallace's views on the
Farm Bureau movement are well
known. lie was a pioneer for fedora
tion. At tho cooperative marketing
conference called by the American
Farm Bureau federation in Chicago,
July 1924 1890. out of which grew
tho Farmers' Grain Marketing COM
nittec OF Seventeen. Mr.. Wallace said:
Take the affirmative. not tho mega
tive. Tho farmers OF this country have
been on tho negative side of this whole
(marketinE) business for forty years.
They did not know enough about the
/ affirmative side to holp themselves un-
til this movement started. Tho time
| has gone by for the negative fellow
| II you are not going TO take the ar
hrmativc and adopt the business
method of looking after your own busi-
ness such as all other businesses have
adopted, you will get no more sympa-
thy from any class OF people. The first
thing to do is TO go forward. to help
yourselves, to adopt tho affirmative
attitude. once YOU adopt that view of
looking at things YOU are going to go
forward II we cannot do 1t.
then lot us quit kicking and sit down

FARM ACTION
IN WEAVING
Home WOOL,

c. ]. Fawcctt, of the department OF
cooperative marketing, reports that
during the week ending March ap-
proximately a half million pounds Of
wool had been moved from the CO.
operative pools at prices ranging about
wools Delainc, 40@i1 cents: fine sta
pie, 33m34 cents: half-blood, 3o6S2
cents; three ciGhts blood, 27T2S cents:
quarter blood 25m26ccnts. Scmi-bright
grades sell at approximately to
cents per pound less. with the low
quarter around fS6b2O cents. BURY.
scedy and off sorts ranging from 1S
to II cents. These prices only serve
to indicate the values in general
way. as the character and shrinkago
of given grades vary greatly in tho
different sections.
Much progress is being made by this
various orcanizatio in manufactur-
ing wool into blankets and sultinSs.
Montana has directed seven carloads
OF wool to n certain mill to he manu-
factured into cloth, blankets and
robes. Michigan farmers have placed
orders for approximately 1000 blan-
kets. The Illinois Agricultural associs.
tion is manufacturing blankets and
sociation has under consideration n
proposal from a reliable mill to ac-
cept Iowa wool at market price and
returning blankets of superior quality
Maryland and the New England statca
are also considering similar action.
Much inquiry is received from indi-
vidual wool growers as to where they
may have their clip converted into
blankets and manufactured articles II
should be remembered that few. n any.
mills will accept small consignments
for manufacturing; no mill can afford
to devote machinery and equipment
to converting small clip OF wool into
manufactured articles. Tho mills must
usuallt have minimum order of from
500 TO 1000 blankets. Such manufac-

From Fort Collins Express: BLACK

Walters. Twin Falls. Idaho. set two
feet apart in rows six feet apart. in
eight years yielded fence posts worth
Si,cro per aero. Tho state forester Mt
Fort Collins would like to hear some

II can be stated that black locusts
largo enough for posts have been
grown within sight of Pueblo in much
less time than five years, and in rows
only four to five feet apart, and thcy
received no care or cultivation what

SIGN FOR BEETS
ON west SLOPE

Sentiment as to accepting the con-
tract offered by the sugar companies
seems to be different in the west part
of the state from that in Arkansas
Valley where it has been rejected.
Says Grand Junction News:
Quite a number of beet growers
have already signed the 1921 con-
tracts and new contracts are coming
in by mail and are being signed in
person at the factory. The 1921 Of
fer is a very fair one, say many in
touch with the situation and outlook
and the beet growers are most for
tunate to have the guarantee that
they do from the factory. 1t is be-
lieved that a large acreage will be
signel up.
Not a beet grower in western Colo
RADIO failed to market single beet
this year or last. while growers of
many crops still have tho bulk of
growing is certain to prove profitable
to the dilisent growers who make
their farms rich.
Tho further statement is made:
The 1921 sugar beet contract of
the Holly Sugar Corporation is now
ready for the grower and as last year
will be based on the average net
!

The price per net ton will be based
on tho average net return (. o. b.

Initial payment will be made on
the 18th of each month based on

as sugar prices wstrrant-also taking
into consideration amounts of all de-

Troyer Of Wabash county is the prize
corn grower of the world.
Mr.. Troyer won sweepstakes prize
for the best 10 ears in the International
Grain Show, carrying of the Board of
Trade grand prize. Indiana growers
also carried off the first prize awards
for the best 10 ears of both white and
yellow corn for the two most important
corn regions for which prizes were Of
fered separately.
The uniformity of the exhibits Of corn
from Indiana was striking. The work
of the county agents and extension
leaders is apparently bearing fruit, and
what is more important, the corn which
won the prizes, is the identical variety
which has been winning the FIVE aero
production contests in the state.
Their show corn is their highest yield
ing corn. They have learned that in
getting quality, they also get quantity.
They declare that it is useless to look
for show corn among thin, impover-
ished yields.
Does quality pay! 1t is estimated that
to improve the grade of corn now mar
keted as No. 4 so that it would grade
No. 8, would give to the corn growers
of America an additional ten million
dollars. The same principle is also true
of oats, wheat and other grains.
The grand championship for q single
ear was won by j. e. Mummert, Fulton
Co., H., portrait of which is present.
