ODD FELLOWS HOME
TO BE REF URNISHED

Cullman, November l9.-(SpeciaI.)
Plans are now under way to refur-
nish the Odd Fellows home here.
The plan as adopted. according to
Past Grand Master Buel, is to have

Der joining the fraternity yused for
this purpose The membership of
this fraternity is: growing rapidly,
according to Mr.. Buell. Within the
past month between 40 and so new
members have been added to the
lodge in CuIlman.
The Rebekahs have planned for
their years work at the home =.
beautify the front grounds and in
stall concrete driveways. walks
guttering, etc. This work will cost
more than $1,000. The Rebekahs,
of which organization Mrs. Jane Nc
Nab of Cuilman is secretary, meet
each Monday evening in the Fraternt
al hall here. Last year these women
built and equipped a splendid laundry
at the home.
The home boys and Daddy" Mil
Ter superintendent of the home have
just harvested IA splendid crop. Over
1900 bushels of sweet potatoes have
been placed on the garnet floor of
the home to be used there, and the
remainder sold when the prices are
higher Potatoes keep perfectly
throughout the winter on this floor
The home has hundreds of dollars
worth of cattle and hogs. most of
them being thoroughbred About
500 gallons of syrup was made and
practically everything that could be
raised and eaten on thes farm is
planted each season.
The per capita cost of Keeping the
children. according stos Mr.. Buel, was
somethin COVER SIT. This amount in
cludes the sum that has to be paid
out each year for the salaries o.
school and music teacher.
Only s225 was spent last year for
medicine and a doctor. there being
very little sickness amo4g the chill

ENGINEERS WANT
|N0[AN BILL PASSED

Organized engineers of the country,
under the leadership Of the American
Engineering Council, Of which Secretary
Herbert c. Hoover is president. will seek
to have the Nolan bill to increase the
personnel and salaries in the patent Of
fee passed at the extra session of Con-
gress.
The organized engineers attribute the
failure of this bill in the last Congress
to the section which allows the Federal
Trade Commission to acquire and work
patents "in the public interest" Edwin
]. Prindle of New York. chairman of the
patents committee of the engineering
council, in report made public today.
says that the Federal Trade Commission
section should not be enacted into law
even as separate bill. He describes
it as a dangerous measure in itSeN
which will open up a most unfortunate
activity for the government.
In explaining the engineers position
on this legislation the report says in
part:
THE former opposition in the SEN
ate to the patent office relief, and
that which forced the unacceptable
reductions in salaries and numbers
of examiners and clerks (Which the
conference committee was persuaded
to set aside). is largely and seemingly
almost wholly overcome. But the op
position in the Senate to the federal
trade section is determined and has
expressed an intention to prevent, the
patent Office from getting the de-
sired relief unless the federal trade
section is removed from the bill.

CULTIVATING CORN BY MOON
LIGHT
It's New Game Played Up in
Sioux County.

Alton, Iowa-Sioux county farmers
have been cultivating corn in the
moonlight.
Mic Bogaard near Orange City
started it. Ed Kraii and others have
followed suit.
1t has been the most comfort
able way to cultivate the crop during
the excessively hot weather. Be-
gard worked in his field till 2
o'clock one morning. The horses
follow the burrows and it is not
difficult to see well enough to make
the cultivation effective.
Through this system it has been
possible to lay by most of the corn
in this county. At any rate it is be-
ing cultivated for the third and last
time.

FARMERS TO yACCINATE
New Law Allows Them to Treat
Own Hogs.

Des Monies, Iowa-Under provi
sions of the serum law which be-
came effective in Iowa this month
schools of instruction will be in the
various counties of the state so that
interested farmers may receive in
formation along the lines of vaccina-
ton for hog cholera.
Upon the request of seven farm
ers who desire school in any coun-
ty, each deposit S. to pay the ex-
penses, the county agent is authoriz-
ed to make arrangement with Off
cial of the extension department of
Iowa State College at Ames.
Must Pass Examination
Any farmer who desires a permit
to administer hog cholera serum may
attend this school and, after receiv-
ing instruction, undergo an examina-
ton. If results Of the examination
show him to be grounded sufficient
ly in principles of vaccination, per-
init will ,hes Giuaa.sfaraanq0 u4asr,f lie
his own hogs only. Under no v44.ufn-
stances will any farmer taking such
instruction be permitted to vaccin-
ate for his neighbor or anyone else.
This matter of conducting schools
of instruction in various counties is
one of the practical features of the
new law, which, it is claimed, will
mean a distinct saving to farmers,
who desire permits. Under the pre-
sent system farmers desiring per-
mits are required to go to the state
college at Ames for instruction and
examination.
In connection with this law, Iowa
Farm Bureau, sponsor of the act,
throws out a warning of two-fold
nature. First, it states it is essen
tial that, in the vaccination of ones
hogs, the strictest sanitary precau-
tions must be kept in mind and rig
idly observed. A careless operator
may start something in his herd that
will be actually disastrous and re-
quire time and trouble and expense
to overcome. The business Of vac
cinating hogs is no task for the care
less and sloppy worker,
Another point they deem of value
to remember is this: Don't at
tempt to vaccinate a sick hog
There may be many occasions when
farmer will attempt to vaccinate
hogs where disease already has start
ed Under no circumstances should
this be done. Such cases are for the
veterinarian only and his careful
judgment alone should be consulted
The vaccination of ones hogs may be
time, labor and money saving
proposition, but it stands to reason
that there is a right and wrong way
