and many strains are being isolated
which, even though self-fertilized for
many generations, show resistance to
the organisms associated with the
rots.
Reducing the losses from these rots
is a complex problem, requiring much
more investigation. At present the
department can go little farther than
to say that primarily it involves a
careful consideration of environment,
soil fertility, and the nature of the
particular strain of corn.

Waste at Home, Also

Reports come from California that
fruit is rotting on the ground under
the trees because of the rail road
strike. That may be so remarks the
Oelwein Iowan, but we have seen
tons and tons of apples and plums
and other kinds of fruit lying and
rotting on the ground under the trees
right here in Iowa many and many a
summer-and there was no railroad
strike either. How quick we are
to note something We have seen
for years, when there is an excuse
to hang it upon. There is more
waste of fuit, meat, and vegetables
right in the midst of peace in every
hotel and restaurant in this country
than would feed the starving people
of two Russias.

ISSUES

Issues are abundant this year. The
woods are full of them. They are
more than you can shake a stick at.
The candidate for office finds himself
surrounded by them. All sorts Of
issues. Foreign issues. Domestic
issues, issues that partake of both
foreign and domestic matters. A
blind man can see them. A deaf
man can hear them. They can not
be ignored or evaded,
OF course, no candidate will under
take or be expected to discuss them
ALL Each will fit himself with the
issue he thinks best suited TO pro-
duce results favorable to himself. He
will inspect the fully supplied arsenal
and choose the weapon best suited to
his needs,
In this way all the issues VII be
requisition during the campaign. The
arsenal will be emptied. Here one
will be in service; there, anothef;
yonder, still another, and so on.
First and last it ought to be and
probably will be, most interesting
and instructive campaign. The ora
tors and the press are tuned up. The
people-listeners and readerS-are
eager for messages. Meetings will
be we'll attended. Voters are begin
ming to appreciate the importance of
their ballots. Hence the November
mandate is likely to convey clear
idea of public opinion, and to inn
pose on those who receive it duty
it would be dangerous to shirk on
the eve of the next quadrennial con-
test, when both the presidency and
the congress will be in the scale

Trade at Home

The people who go or send to
large cities to shop, deal with big
enterprises that often seem like a
great machine and in which it is
hard to get the good personal touch.
There is much complaint in those
places of the difficulty of getting
intelligent sales forces, and many
salespeople are of type who put
little brains into their work, whose
heads are full Of their own amuse-
ments and affairs, and who fail to
give the customer that intelligent
assistance that the buyer needs.
When you buy of your home stores
in Decorah the situation is quite diff
ferent. You have personal relations
with a splendidly trained body of
salespeople and sometimes directly
with the proprietor. These folks give
you close individual attention.
They become acquainted with your
desires and needs and tastes, and try
to find something that will fit your
requirements. They make valuable
suggestions and frequently prevent
you from making what for you
would be an undesirable purchase.
Selling goods is something more
than machine operation, in which a
clerk automatically hands something
over the counter for you to take or
leave. 1t should be an act of SER
vice, in which the seller or his agent
should add some personal intelligence
about goods, and fit the merchandise
to the needs of each particular buyer,
That is the kind of service that
you get in Decorah. The difference
is not merely that here the sales
forces are agreeable and it is pleas
ant to deal with them, and you are
spared the snappish maners often
seen in big stores. There is also a
real effort to please and satisfy, a
willingness to take trouble to make
goods right. The idea is not merely
to sell stuff, but to make deal SC
satisfactory that the buyer will come
back next time and will tell his
friends about it.

Farmer Keeps Apples Packed in Jal

William Moore, farmer living in
the Bethel Grove neighborhood, near
Marshalltown, says the Times Re-
publican, has put down twenty gal
Ions of apples in cold water. The
apples are placed in the jar in lay
ers, stem-end up. The jar is filled
with the fruit to within about four
inches of the top. A weight is
then placed over the apples, and
the jar is filled with water. 1t is
said that apples can be kept in good
condition in this way, until the mid
die of next summer.

Travels of a Dollar

Consider the rounds of a dollar
when spent at home. The farmer
receives it in exchange for produce
he ships to city markets. He pays
it to the grocer.
The grocer's wife must have new
gown, and it goes to the dry goods
man.
That gentleman pays it to the clerk
and the latter hands it over to the
shoe dealer.
Mr.. Shoe Dealer wants a new suit,
and the clothing man get it.
A car goes on the blink and the
clothier transfers it to the garage
man.
The garage man is pious sort OF
a bird and drops it into the collection
box at Sunday morning services.
Then it reaches the church treas
urer, and he tickles the palm of the
preacher with It, and the ministerial
gentleman slips it to the milliner In
exchange for a hat for Mrs. Preach
er-or as part payment therefor.
Mrs. Milliner needs some face
cream and the beauty palor or drug
store gets it.
Then it goes to another grocer 1oi
foodstuffs, and the grocer hands II
over to the farmer for produce and
the dollar starts off on another
round of callss

But if the farmer had sent tha'
dollar to catalogue house where

COUNTY AGENT
AND HIS WORK
Can Not Render Individual Service.
This Makes it Necessary to Hold
Public Meetings.
EGG PRODUCTION
AND THE PULLET.
Careful Feeding and Careful HOus.
ing Will Bring Better Results in
Egg RAISING. Corn and Oats
i'm Equal Proportion.

AS the County Agents activities
have enlarged and <he scope of his
work developed during the past few
years, there has been a question
raised by different factions as to
just what the county agents work is
and to whom he is obliged to render
service.
First of all, the county agent is
an employee of the United States
Department of Agriculture cooper
ating with the state college and the
County Farm Bureau. As an en-
ployee of the Department of Agri-
culture it is his business to give in
formation in regard to the various
problems which may arise in relation
to agriculture. These problems
may have to do with production,
marketing, agricultural credits, etc.
1t is the duty Of. the County Agent
to serve the agricultural community
in every way possible and his activi-
ties are not confined to any group,
class or organization. The salary of
the county Agent is paid entirely
from public funds. There is, how
ever, a great deal of expense con-
nected with the putting on of the
work in the county. 1t is necessary
to maintain an office, secure steno-
graphic help, maintain an automobile
for the Agent to get to and from the
office and many other items of ex-
pense which are not borne at public
expense. 1t is therefore necessary
and only reasonable that other farm
organizations asking for aid from the
County Agent, other than informa>
ton which may be given from the
office, to help bear their just share
of the expense of the office.
The county agent will serve the
Equity or the Farmers Union just as
cheerfully as he serves the Farm
Bureau, whenever the occasion re-
uuires il.

Men of One Idea.

The type of people called "men
of one idea' are not commonly pop
ular. They bore all with whom they
come in contact by their constant
reiteration of their favorite theory.
But once in awhile such people have
thought out some profound Truth
that the world needs to know.
Prominent among these one idea
men whose persistence has revolu-
tionized the course of history, was
Christopher Columbus. Beginning
as an obscure man, he became one
of the worlds great heroes, and now
more than 400 years after, his dis
covery of America is celebrated as
a popular festival and is legal hol-
iday in 80 states.
Such a mans greatest difficulties
are not the obstacles and perils he
meets in the course of his adven-
lures. Columbus's greatest Difficult
ty came from the skecticism and ig-
norance of his time. He spent many
years joumeying around among
kings and wise men, expounding his
theory that land could be found a.
cross the unknown ocean. But fol
many years the best intelligence OF
that period rejected him as mere

It is not possible to render indi-
vidual service such as would be re-
quired should the county agent at
tempt to Gull each individuals poul-
try in the county or prune their
fruit trees, build bitches to prevent
SOL erosion, test their seed corn or
do any of the numerous things which
he teaches by demonstrations.
1t is therefore necessary when Civ
ing services of this sort to an in
dividual to hold public meetings, the
object being not to do the work for
the individual but to show those who
will attend the demonstration how
the work may be done successfully
on their own farms.

1t takes dauntless courage and
persistence for a man to stick to
such an idea, when it seems ridicu-
lous to the leaders of his times. We
see in our own day plenty of men
who are thus trying to convince the
world of the truth of some pet theo-
ry. Usually their notions are mere
" visionary. But one should remem-
Der that many great truths when
first propounded were received with
general scom.
The people who predicted human
flight, also those who conceived of
horseless carriages, only 40 years
ago were regarded as dreamers and
one idea men. So in the fringe OF
scientific and economic thought to-
day, are many men who gain little
hearing from ordinary people, yet in
whose minds some idea is stewine
destined to change the world.

How to Prepare Pullets for White
Egg Production

According to J. j. Warren, poultry
specialist of the Agricultural Ex-
tension Service, "the care and man.
agement your pullets receive from
now on will determine largely the
results you will receive this winter.
One flock owner visited recently had
been feeding his pullets on an ex-
elusive oats diet. As a result, they
were very thin and in no condition to
force for egg production. Several
weeks of heavy feeding on corn will
be necessary to ovecome this diff
Guilty.
Feeding new corn, oats, wheat or
barley which has not been sufficient
" dried or "cured" often results in
severe bowel trouble and often in
heavy losses. 1t is much better to
buy old grain than to take chances
with unSeaSoned grain.

Much Poultry in State

"Many flock owners have more
chickens this year than they ever
had before. Some of them, however,
do not realize that this great in
crease calls for greater care and sys-
tenn in management, particularly m
feeding. A dry mash kept before
the chickens constantly will do Won
ders in developing them.
"At least one full feed day OF
corn and oats-equal parts by meas
ure-fed in the evening, will be re-
lished by the birds.
Housing the Pullets
"The sooner the pullets are plac-
ed in their permanent laying quar-
ters. the better off they will be. II
will be easier to give them better
care and they will be accustomed
to their quarters before they begin
to lay.
"Serious trouble may be escaped
by thoroughly cleaning and disintect-
ing the laying quarters before put
ing the pullets in. Treating the
birds with some good louise powder
as sodium fluoride is also advisable
at this time.
