IF EVERY FARMER MILKS A
cow

On account of the emphatic slump
in grain and the more inviting price
of dairy products, many farmers in
Iowa and elsewhere are launching in
the milk business. This will have a
tendency to overproduce in the dairy
field. Aside from the above there is
a pressing reason why every farmer
should keep mich cows-they add a
greater diversity to his income. Ex-
perts state that in case the present
conditions continue very long there
will be a greater and greater ten
dency to increase the number Of milk
ers with corresponding increase in
the prodution of cheese and butter.
With every farmer milking cows the
result will certainly be depressing on
dairy prices.

but three years old and although the
first families had arrived about a doz-

back to the time when Baraboo was

merging the village into a city and
saw the town built into substantial

The Conservation Commission is
receiving many inquiries about the
raising of pheasants. Reliable inform
alton which has come to the commits
sion has led to advice against the
raising of pheasants in Wisconsin.
From far western and middle western
state where the pheasant craze has
had wide run, it is learned that
pheasants when they become plen-
tiful destroy other game birds, such
as quail, partridge and prairie chick
ems They do this by hunting out the
nests of these other game birds ana
destroying them. The Hungarian par
fridge is the game bird now recon-
mended for stocking the fields ana
woods of Wisconsin. The Hungarian
birds are not vicious and thrive In
the same fields with the others.

LIBRARY OF Pill GRIM ELDER

M. G. Crandau of BarabOO calls at
tention to The News of library that
existed in the days when the pilgrims
were trying to obtain a foothold on
this continent-about four centuries
ago.
The library of 400 volumes belong
ed to Elder Brewster, the richest
among the Pilgrims, He was a man
of learning, generous, of business
ability, and courage. Of his books
62 were in Latin. some in Greek and
others in Hebrew. There were not
only religious books but books on
science, geography, history, poetry,
and other subjects. The registered
capacity of the Mayflower was only
$50 tons yet the pilgrims were able
to bring much that was precious to
them, and among the goods good
books. Not all of the library came
in the Maybower but 2S1 of the vol
umes bear the memorable date of 1920
or some years earlier. A writer says:
When we consider the poverty of the
colony and the expense and difficulty
attending the Importation of books
we can but admire the scholarship
and versatility and love of knowledge

Board representing agriculture shall
be genuine farmer, one who is act
lively and, in good faith, engaged in
farming and not simply an agricultu-
ralist.
The second bill which will be pres
sed by the agricultural bloc this ses-
sion is the cooperative marketing
measure. The purpose of this bill is
to encourage cooperation among far
mers in buying and selling products.
Opponents of the measure in the Sen
ate are trying to hedge the measure
around with such restrictions as will
make it imperative, or of little value
to the farmers.
Third, the agricultural bloc expects
to work out in the regular session
some new system Of rural credits
which will give longer and more salts
factory credit to the grain farmer
the live stock man, and others in the
farming industry for periods ranging
from nine months to two or three

The ordinary short-term credits for
three months or less are not adequate
for the farming industry. The purpose
is to have the proposed credits bas-
ed on commodities on the products of
the farm. or the ranch, or the planta-
