The Farm and the Farmer
BY William r. sanborn

its estimate of acreage abandoned
during the winter will be announced.
The planting this fall of winter
wheat are about 100000 acres less
than those of the fall of 1918, when
the record area was sown. They ex-
ceed the average sowings of the last
ten years, which is AZ, ,451, 500 acres,
by almost 4,500,000 acres. The aver
age harvested in the last ten years is
38,416,200 acres.
The jump in the price of wheat on
Monday was largely caused because o.
fear of damage from freezing weather
over bare fields, the snow covering
being only in sections. Severe cold
in the west was responsible for light
er live stock receipts at western mar
kets on Monday, and the hog buyers
were willing to pay a slight advance
on that account.
Much of fhe worlds finest butter

Denmark outranks the rest of the
world in the number of cows kept on
the basis OF population and this makCV
the surprise greater when we learn
that Denmark has built up a great
margarine industry to supply its
/ thrifty people who export their butter
at fancy prices, and eat the cheaper
substitute. The people of Denmark
made 61.400 tons of margarine last
year, and still more in 1922, most all
of which was consumed at home. The
oleo is made from vegetable and nu!
oils, imported from far countries

There's little more to be desired in
the way of pulse stimulation after an

Another nice feature of the round
up is the girls. Beautiful damsels
ride twisting, plunging steers with a
grace that would shame an English
riding master and make him want to
poison his horse.
Altogether, the rodeo is an extreme
ly interesting affair but it seems to
have taken the east considerable time

The low point in the price of san
tonin, the most effective of all worm
medicines, was reached in 1901 when
it wholesaled as. low as $5.25 per
pound. 1t is now quoted at from
$170 to SITS a pound Dealers in chem
icals say that the supply is now at
the record low point, and that the
present price is up TO the record made
in May, 1920. An idea of its scarcity
may be gathered from the fact that
the news of a loss of a cargo of bur
220 pounds in the sinking of ship
caused sharp advance in the price
of this drug. Santonin is a vegetable
extract, taken from the dried flower
heads OF a plant known as artemisia
MARTINA, and the bulk of the worlds
supply before the war came from
Turkestan. 1t was prepared in that
country and in Russia and the Ameri-
can supply came through German and
Russian ports. For the past twenty
years the history of the santonin trade
has been one of advancing prices and
the chemists of the world have been
trying to find or produce a yermifuge
to take its place, but with but little
! success so far. Farmers especially
will hope that a good substitute may
/ soon be found.
/ Dried Whey is Useful.
/ Dairy by-products are now being
used in various new ways as a result
of Investigations by the department
of agriculture.
Good results have been obtained
particularly in the manufacture of
dried whey. From 100 pounds of the
whey were obtained 4 pounds of crude
sugar and 11a pounds of dried whey
containing about 80 per cent of albu-
min. The dried whey was sold to Il
/ laboratory making baby food, at a
1 price which resulted in a satisfactory
return for the whey.
! Dried whey and dried buttermilk
are being fed eXperimentally to lay
ing hens at one OF the department
farmsc. In the first half of the p
1 month experiment the pen of hens re
ceiying dried whey produced eggs al
a rate comparing favorably with re
suits obtained with other kinds OF
feed.
I Greater emphasis on household
management as a phase of home eco

Parcel Business
Heapiest in Local History

local postoffice Tuesday exceeded the
best day in the history of the offices
insured parcel department, Postmas-
ter Ray H. Weisbrod announced We'd
nesday Indications Wednesday prom
ised a new record-breaking mark. Par
cells handled Monday broke all previ-
Gus records with a total of SS4 insured
parcels. This was the largest days
business ever enjoyed by this depart
ment up to that time. Tuesdays rush,
however, took the glory away from
Monday, when a total of 1,052 parcels
were handled 1t is believed the pub
lie is both interested in having its par
cells handled without loss, and has
caught the spirit of mailing early"
of the prohibition issue. there is still
a good deal of cleavage among the
leading Democrats. Many of the Demo
cratic leaders believe that their best
hope of success in 1924 lies in adopt
ing the wet position. Their reason
ing is that they can carry the solid
South anyhow, even though it is dry,
and that by appealing to the ''wets'
they can carry the large eastern states
like New York, New Jersey, Connect
cut and Massachusetts. AS against this
two things can be said:
One is that the most experienced
leaders whose political judgment is not
influenced by any personal considera-
tions say quite firmly, after a complete
and minute survey of the country, that
no party which takes the wet side
of prohibition can not possibly carry
a presidential election against a party
that takes a clearly contrasting posi-
ton of dry" Another is that probably
a. considerable majority of the more
I able and important Democratic lead
( ers are firmly dry" as matter of
conviction.
/ Not to Take Wet Side.
/ Within the Democratic ranks there
probably will be good deal of strain
/ between such "wets" as Governor
Edwards, of New Jersey, and Govern
or Smith, of New York, and on the
other hand such uncompromising
"drys" as Mr. McAdoo and Mr.. Bryan.
The best guess is that in the out
come the Democratic party in the 1924
election will not formally take the
wet" side. Even if by any chance
the Democrats should be wet, ard
even in that event, the Democrats
should win and elect a president com
mitted by party platform to the 'wet''
side. the result would be barren OF
comfort to the 'wets."
1t could really happen that the solid
south, being so thoroughly Democratic
+ would vote for the party's presiden
tiol candidate even though he should
be wet" But with even greater Ger.
tainty these same southern Democrat
ic states would send to congress and
the senate a set of senators and mem
bers who would be practically unani
!. mously dry; the result would be
} that in the senate and the house tht
} vote of the solid south would be cas-
on the dry" side, and with the dry
members and senators from the othe
: states would compose as overwhelm
ing a dry majority as there is il
! the present congress.
