Big Savings For
The Thrifty Housewife

Few homes indeed do not feel the
need of economy. The necessity of
making every penny count touches
the purse of every housewife. 1t is
doubtful if there is q single article
employed as a food or in the prepar-
alton of food that demands more buy
ing wisdom than Baking Powder.
Upon its quality depends the success
and economy of the bakings them
selves.
Calumet Baking Powder enables
the housewife to make three worth
while savings. She saves when she
buys tit is moderate in price.
She saves when she uses it-she
uses only half as much as is required
of most other powders. She saves
materials it is used with-it never
permits bake-day failure. Any wo-
men can use Calumet with absolute
certainty of best results-deicious,
tasty bakings that are pure and
wholesome.
True home economy of time, ma
terial and effort is completely handl-

FARMERS OF INDIANA
BALANCE GRAIN FEED
BY FEEDING TANKAGE

LAFAYETTE, Ind, Jan. 30.-Indi-
ana farmers are turning rapidly to the
feding of tankage or some form Of
protein to balance the grain feed, us
ually corn given to their hogs, as re-
suits OF experimental work at Purdue
university and hundreds of demonstra-
tions over Indiana the last year or two.
The increase in the use of 'tankage in
Pulaski county is typical of the results
being obtained in other counties and
shows that the farmers realize the
value OF a balanced ration to make
hogs out of pigs.
In 1920 and early in 1921 County
Agent |. J., Mathews at Winamac, Ind,
and the county farmers association
co-operated in demonstrating the
value OF feeding tankage with corn in
producing hogs for market. The re-
suits obtained by their methods over
those where corn alone was used were
so outstanding that hundreds of farm
ers went home from the meeting that
had been called to disclose results and
purchased their first lots of tankage.

WOMEN ARE TO HAVE
Big SHARE IN WAYNE
SHOW, SHORT COURSE

With special program for women,
domestic science show. and with a
woman's committee including mem
bers in every township in the county,
the proposed Wayne county corn show
and short course viii be effectively
prevented from being the purely mas
culine affair that such events have
been so often in the past.
Even in premiums. women have de-
manded and obtained equal rights, and
their husbands will have to exert
themselves if the wives do not go
home from the show with more money
than the men
The plan of exhibits allows for com
petition between the townships in the
displays, with sweepstakes prizes in
addition TO the premiums for the best
exhibit from each township.
No extravagant premiums are to be
offered, the management rather at
tempting TO spread out the premiums
so as to encourage as large number
of entries as possible, and with the
rivalry promised between neighbors
and townships liberal displays already
are assured.
Plan Women's Share
A committee composed of Mrs. }.
L. Dolan, president of the newly
formed county federation of women's
rural and suburban clubs, Mrs. ID. w.
Scott, Mrs r. B. Morrow and Miss
Stella Harman, met in the county
agents office Saturday to plan for
the women's share in the two-dag
show and short course.
Besides foods, the woman's show
also will feature clothing exhibits, and
classes will be provided for the school
girls of the county. enabling them to
display the skill learned in school,
while they will be admitted to compe-
tition with their mothers in certain
classes also.
The committee named to enlist
township support in the women's show
is as follows: Abingdon, Mrs. Edith
Burris; Boston. Mrs. w. B. Massie;
Center, Mrs. Minnie Wright; Clay
Mrs. Theodore Davis; Dalton, Mrs
Cora Thornburg; Franklin, Mrs. Frank
Knoll; Greene, Mrs. Omer Pearce;
Harrison, Mrs. Joe Brooks; Jackson,
Mrs. Ray Hunnicutt; Jefferson, Mrs
C. n. Teetor; New Garden, Mrs. Reub-
en- Macy; Perry, Mrs. F. F. Green,
street; Washington, Mrs. Mary Cald'
we'll; Wayne, Mrs. r. B. Morrow
Webster, Mrs. Joseph Thompson.
To Give Demonstrations
In addition to the dairy lectures TO
be given by Prof. c. A. McCanse, OF
Purdue, demonstrations will be given
with dairy cows selected from herds
near Richmond and exhibited before
the audience in the Coliseum. The
other instruction also will be linked
up with demonstrations, committee
having been named to secure material
for use of the speakers.
Charles F. Williams, president OF
the Wayne County Grain Growers, un'
der whose direction the short course
and corn show will be held, met with
the committees to draft the premium
list Saturday, and it is expected that
this will be ready to announce soon
First, second and third prizes will be
provided in all classes OF the domestic
science show.

BIGGEST WEEK IN YEAR FOR OHIO FARMERS
OPENS TODAY AT COLUMBUS STATE UNIVERSITY

That it is possible to buy, fit and
sell purebred beef cattle at a profit,
even in this time OF business slumps,
has been proved by the Ohio Livestock
company, composed of 81 students in
the course in beef production at Ohio
State university, the students asserted
today.
Early in October the class, under
direction of Prof. ConkIin, purchased
two shorthorn heifers, Roam Countess
and Dales Blossom, at s275.
During the 90-day feeding period,
when they were in charge of the stu
dents, they were fed for an average
cost of 10 cents a head, and at the
time of the sale, Roam Countess was
making daily gains Of three pounds,
and the other heifer was gaining two
pounds daily. They showed well in
their class at the Ohio Shorthorn
show, January 10-11, and in the sale
brought $345, an increase of $40 over
the purchase price. This allowed,
when all expenses were paid, a profit
of around IA cents for each student.
