Beef steers again were limited in
numbers. A few consignments were
included that possessed flesh. and these
sold to comparatively good advantage.
Prices ranged from $500 to S6.25.

buyers. Feeder steers were being
quoted at s5.25 to $5.75 for good class
of animals. and $5.75 to $500 for choice
to fancy kinds. Plain quality steers
were selling from S4.75 to s5.25. Some
fair quality horned cows sold for s3.65.

Wonderful LiberaIity!

Passengers in one of the sleeping
cars from Hot Springs were aroused
before daylight recently by the an
nouncement of one Of the passengers
that he had lost his 11-carat ruby
stlckpin, which he asserted was worth
$4,000 or more.
On demand of the passenger tele-
gram was sent to the st. Louis po-
lice. When policemen met the train
at Union station they were informed
that the pin had been found by the
porter in an upper berth, few seats
from the lower which the Little Rock
man occupied. The owner said the
mistake was his, and gave the porter
quarter for finding the pin.-St
Louis Post-Dispatch.

ing ana paying absolutely necessary
running expenses. Often the income
is insufficient even to do this, and the
farmer and his family have to go
without some Of the comforts of life
Thus it is that the size of the farm
business is one of the most import
ant, if not the most important, factor
TO be considered in selecting farm.
In determining the value of farm in
this regard it is essential, specialists
say, to make sure of three things.
That you have an opportunity; that
is, make sure that the desired volu-
me of business is at least potentially
present, as evidenced by tllablc land
or by markets for intensive crops on
small areas.
That the volume Of business can be
achieved by economical methods.
That the volume of business than
can be conducted on the farm is such
that it will yield an income large
enough to provide comfortable mar
gin after paying the absolutely ncccS-
SarY expenses Of operation and pro-
viding an adequate living for the far
mcr and his family, for saving or fu-
turc demands.

COMES TO AMERICA TO
LEARN EXTENSION METHODS

Madame Dcvougc, in charge of do
mcStic science work at the normal
school, Grignon, France, is, by appoint
culture, i'm the United States studying
the home demonstration work, as or
ganiZcd and conducted by the United
States Department of Agriculture and
the State agricultural colleges, with
the ultimate purpose Of establishing
Il Simila rsystcm Of extension work
in France.
The American Committee for De-
vast;,tcA France is paying Madame
Dcvougc's expenses. This committee
has arranged in the last two years for
four American canning specialists to
go to France during the summer to
teach American methods Of food pre-
scrVation. Madame DcvOugc worked
some of the time each year with the
American unit and last summer her
daughter accompanied the Americans
over their entire itinerary.
Madame Dcvougc is now in Louis
lana Previously she had made stays
Of varying length in Washington,
Florida, and Mississippi. In the lat
ter States she attended the annual
state meeting Of the county agents.
After visit to Texas she plans max
ing tour through the Northern and
Western States before she sails for
France in April. On her return to
her home country she will probably

account and partly because of the diff
ficulty often experienced in properly
curing the large growth of succulent
vines, and its coarscncss and uneven
ness in quality, cowpca hay has little
standing in the city markets. When
it becomes generally recognized that
this hay is a source Of protein which
can be raised on the farm, the quanti-

COWPEAS AN EXCELLENT HAY
II CROP is PROPERLY CURED

If cut at the right stage Of growth
and properly handled, cowpcas make
excellent hay Of high feeding value.
The Bureau &C Plant Industry Of the
United States Department of Agri-
culture shows IN Farmers Bulletin
1888, issued recently, that this hay is
as valuable as that from other lcgu-
mInous crops, and is rclishcd by all
farm animals.
Throughout the Southern States
coWpca hay has been extensively used
and is the main dependence for hay
on the plantations. Wcll-cured cow
pea hay has proved satisfactory for
work stock and for beef or milk pro-
duction, and has given good results
when fed to poultry, hogs, and sheep.
1t is said to be better suited for feed
ing COWS than horccs. Partly on this

"BENENOLENT ASSIMILATION"

Henry A. Wise Wood, speaking be-
fore the Federal Trade Commission,
in June, 1918 said: '"Tcn years ago,
30 per cent of the news print used by
American newspapers was made in
the United States. Today, 35 per cent
is made i'm Canada"
In 1921, 60 per cent is made in
Canada, or fro mwood pulp imported
from across the border.
Careful surveys show that there
has been in this period an increase in
consumption on the part Of ncwspap-
CrS Of only 10 per cent.
During the period from 1909 to
1919 the United States increased its
production Of ncwsprint II per cent.
Canada increased her production dur

INCOME FROM FARM DEPENDS
ON THE SIZE OF BUSINESS

1t requires a farm business of at
least fair size to provide an income
that will merely cov"r mnintcnanc"
charges, and these charges are rcla-
lively higher for small farms than for
large ones, say specialists Of the Uni
ted States Department of Agriculture.
\ farm may be Of such size as to fur
nish most living needs of the farmer,
such as vegetables and fruits, as we'll
as enough income to pay the taxes
and running expenses, but unless
there is a margin above this annual
maintenance charge no progress can
be made toward accommodating sur
plus.
This point is often overlooked, and
thousands Of men fail to understand
why they do not get ahead faster,
when, as 4 matter of fact, the size of
thcir business is such that there is
only a slight possibility of any margin
being lett after obtaining Il bare hv-
