BANKS AID PUREBRED SIRES
Virginia Farmers Given opportunity
to Improve Live Stock by
Local Bankers.

The banks Of Charlottesville, Va,
are cooperating with farmers of, the
surrounding county in obtaining pure
bred sires. According to reports re-
ceived by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, if farmer Will
sell his grade or scrub sires and pur-
chase pure-bred animals. the banks
supply the necessary funds to cover
the purchase of the purebred sire over
the amount received for the inferior
animal. The loan is made on the basis
of years time.
Sentiment among bankers regarding
the use Of purebred live stock in
practical farming operations appears
to be growing more favorable, and
the attitude of the charlottesville
banks is evidence Of this point. Pure
bed sires Of good quality, as shown
by information obtained by the bureau
of animal industry, increase the earn
ing power of herds and flOcks in which
they are used.

MANY ADVANTAGES OF SHEEP
Animals Are Quite Useful in Keeping
Farm Free From Weeds-Good
Meat Producers.

While many farmers flop from one
line of farming to another, according
as prices have been high or low the
season previous, the successful far
mer usually sticks to some well-tried
program whether conditions appear to
be favorable or otherwise. The great
majority of these successful men
recommend the keeping of at least
few sheep upon the farm.
They emphasize that sheep are
helpful in keeping the farm clean Of
weeds. They also consume much ma
terial that would otherwise go to
waste. These farmers point out, too,
that these animals can be comfortably
kept in comparatively inexpensive
buildings. The two main requirements
in housing are protection from winds
and freedom from moisture.
These animals enable the farmer to
better distribute his labor because

CYLINDER OIL HELPS SWINE
Ames Specialists Declare II Is Safe
for Hogs, Except Those With
Delicate Skin.

Old oil from automobile crank cases
can be used for oiling hogs, say the
animal husbandrymen at Iowa State
college. Although some people are
skeptical about using this sort of Oil,
the Ames men declare that it Is safe,
except possibly in the case of white
hogs, which have a delicate skin that
sometimes blisters through the use OF
the oil.
The oil should be allowed to stand
for while in order to allow the fine
particles of metal to settle out. The
surface oil may then be poured off and
used In the hog oilers. The sediment
should be discarded.

A chart prepared by the bureau or
public roads of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture showing the
trend of common labor wages on high
way construction i'll various geOgraph-
ic divisions since 1915 presents an IN
teresting study of conditions during
the period. The price per hour which
in 1915 ranged from l. cents to 10
cents, gradually rose to from 81 to q:
cents in 1920 and has now declined TO
from Is to Al cents. AT the present
time the prices are as follows: ID
cents in the South Atlantic states, Is
cents in the states east Of and border
ing the Ohio and Mississippi rivers
and including Alabama, p cents IN
the Texas, Arkansas, Oklahoma ana
Louisiana group, 20 cents in the states
included between the Ohio and Mis-
sissippi rivers, % cents in the states
from Kansas and Missouri to the
Canadian border, &c cents in the
mountain states and Il cents in the
Pacific states. Figures for the New
England and Middle Atlantic states
have not yet been completed.
On the chart referred to the lines
showing the trend in the various III
visions have the same general rise and
fall and cross each other in only few
cases, particular exception being in
the states from Kansas and Missouri

most marked decrease, dropping from

SURVEYS LESSEN ROAD COST

SIMPLE DIET ALWAYS BEST
As True Now as When Addison Ad-
vised 1t, More Than TWO
Centuries Ago.

Two hundred years ago Addison
wrote: Mature delights in the most
plain and simple diet. Every animal,
but man, keeps to one dish. Herbs are
the food of this species, fish of that
and flesh of a third. Man falls upon
the smallest fruit or excrescence Of
the earth, scarce a berry or mushroom
can escape him.
ut is impossible to lay down any
determinate rule for temperance.
We're l to consider my readers as my
patients, and to prescribe such kind
of temperance as is accommodated to
all persons, l would copy the follow
ing rules Of very eminent physician:
Make your whole repast out OF one
dish; if you indulge in second,
avoid drinking anything strong till you
have finished your meal; at the same
time abstain from all sauces, or
at least such as are not the most plain
and simple"

TOOK THE KISS SERIOUSLY
According to French Scientist, the 10
mans Had Three Distinct Ways
of Specifying 1t.

DR.. Emile Malespine, a scientist OF
Lyons, France, and a contributor OF
physiological subjects to leading
French periodicals, has written an ar
ticle for the Forum in which he traces
the development of the kiss as a social
custom from earliest history
"The first manifestations of the kiss
encountered in literature" says Doc
for Malespine, "are those which are
furthest removed from the kiss of
homage, appear rather as ceremonies,
than as natural and spontaneous ex-
pressions Of sentiment. The Bible
shows us pagans kissing their idols.
The Greeks and Romans had special
veneration for statues; there was at
Agrigenta, according to Cicero, mar
velous statue of Hercules, of which
the lips and the chin were completely
worn away by the devotions of the
faithful.
1.-THE Romans, as well as the Greeks,
knew the kiss in all it's PROJECTIONS.
Their physiological wealth in this re-
gard, is an added proof. Without
counting the diminutives, they had
three words specifying the kiss: The
osculum corresponds to what we
should call the kiss Of friendship;
the basiu1n, more tender, was the kiss
of relatives, and of husband and wife;
finally, the savium applied to the
kisses of lovers"

makes excellent silage; and when
ground into meal it is a good and
easily handled feed. In addition to
those good qualities it is Of great value
as soil improver. Attempts have
even been made to introduce it as a
human food and as a medicine, but it
cannot compete with other staples as
a food and it has no special medicinal
properties
Although not detailed enough to
make laborious reading, each subject
from haymaking on through to alfalfa
of fake and fad alfalfa products, is
treated so fully as to give the reader
a thorough understanding of the pos
sibilities of this great crop Those
who are inclined to be too enthusiastic
over certain uses will find reason in
the collected experience of many grow
ers and feeders to modify their views,
for alfalfa is not a panacea for all the
troubles of the farm and feedlot. Con-
sideration is given to the needs of
dairy cattle, beef cattle, hogs, sheep,
horses and poultry, and to the crop in
various forms, including hay, pasture,
silage, straw, soiling feed, tea and
meal
