WINTER WHEAT

Those planning to SOW Kanred Win
ter Wheat this fall should get in touch
with the growers and make arrange
ments for seed. Information from au-
thentic sources indicates that YER
with the heavy yield obtaiped by those
who have winter wheat this year,
there will not be enough Hand Coun-
ty grown seed to satisfy the local de-
mand. From present indications, this
years winter wheat crop In Hand
County will average better than rs
bushels.
Those who will likely have seed for
sale are: Will Collins, e. Il. Tucker,
Roy Rush, Max Grassland, K. Bowman
Chase ID. Stewart, VIM. Rowen, Henry
Sievers. NJ. T. Skinner, G. w. Courts,

There are probably others who have
grown winter wheat this year but this
Office has no record OF them.

OHIO FEEDERS WILL PUR.
CHASE RANGE CATTLE

Cattle feeders OF Ohio are planning
to buy their feeders directly from the
western ranges again this fall, accord
ing to announcement made recently
by the livestock marketing depart
ment of the Ohio Farm Bureau Fed
Grafton. The plan OF cooperative buy
ing directly from the ranges was tried
on a large scale for the first time last
year. While complete results on the
advantages Of this plan over buying
from stockyards are not yet fully
compiled the plan has given evidence
of sufficient merit to warrant another
trial, according to reports.
Last year about 40 carloads were
brought into the state. and distributed
to feeders largely those of Madison
and Fayette counties. They were pur-
chased by representatives Of feeders
sent directly to the producers of feed
er stock on the Colorado range It Is
probable that a larger number will be
purchased this year.

Here are few sample tests for ma
terials which will protect women from
buying weighted silks or adulterated
wool material. BY applying these.
women can tell whether the material
is worth making up and whether or
not II Is worth the money value.
In testing wool for cotton, ravel out
warp and wool threads. Break the
threads. Wool pulls apart with kinky
ends while cotton breaks. Wool burns
very slowly and gives of odor of
burnt feathers and leaves a large
amount of ashes while cotton makes
a flame, leaves a fine gray ash and has
the odor of burning leaves. The ends
OF cotton threads spread out when
burning.
The reason that silk dresses and
blouses sometimes give at the seams
is that they are weighted. Burn the
sample OF silk. True silk burns slowly
the ash coiling up into q tiny ball on
the edge of the burning material. An
odor OF burning feathers is given of.

sample will retain It's shape. The

THRESHING PRICES

The annual Hand County Thresh-
ermen's meeting was held at Miller
last Saturday afternoon. Not a very
large delegation was present.
After some discussion the threshing
prices were left the same as last year.
A noticeable feature of the meeting
was the absence of farmer representa-
ton. 1t seems in a meeting of this
kind where the farmer is so much
concerned, ONE definite arrangement
for farmer representation should be
made. Since the meeting Friday
many complaints have been heard re-
garding the prices set. Those regis
tering their complaints at this ONCE
state that they cannot understand
why threshing prices should remain
as high as last year when labor ia
cheaper, and grain Is more plentiful.

New York and Pennsylvania. The
prompt and amicabie adjustment OF
fundamental questions involved IN
the of this work has led
to praiseworthy activity, and actual
construction has been SO a adj
va nced hat we may well view with
satisfaction the physical evidences
pointing to the early completion OF
the two projects. We pledge our
continued support to tSe program
Of affording our citizens the best
facilities for transportation within
the bounds of reason and economy
Clean Waterways
The pollution of our beaches by
oil and refuse is detrimental to the
welfare of the counties bordering
| Upon the ocean. bays and rivers of
! our state. The destruction of the
fish By this means is a serious dam
| ser to one of the great food supplies
| CT the nation. We pledge the CO.
| operation of our state with the ma
! tional government, to remedy this
menace.
Education
The public schools of New Jersey
have always been encouraged ny
the Republican party, by liberal ap-
preparations and wise laws, and
their development has been fostered
to keep pace with the needs of the
times. We believe that there should
,be equal educational opportunities
for every child, whether he resides
in the rural districts or In the city
and whether it be vocational, bust.
ness or academic instruction.
In order TO improve the attend
ance of children in the schools OF
the state, we favor the passage o.
such laws as shall require the tax
ing of an adequate census at rea'
sonable intervals, and the employ
ment of a county attendance Off
edcar in each county when so recon
mended by the county siperinten
dent of the county, and approved
by the State Commissioner of Edu
cation and State Board of Educa
ton.
We believe that politics should b
eliminated in all the welfare de
partments of our state. ard to thi
end we recommend that the Com
missioner of education shall be ap
pointed by State Board of Educa
cation, in accordance with the prac
tice already in force in the Depart
ment of Institutions and Agencle
and Department of Health.
Prohibition Of Night Work by
Women
We favor the adoption of an &C
prohibiting night work for wome
in laundries, bakeries and factorie
Excluding canneries), between tn
hours of 10 p. m. and 6 a. m.
Higher Compensation
The ~workmen's compensation az
should be amended to provide high
er rates of compensation made !
, conformity with actual economl
conditions now prevailing.
State Institutions
The Republican party, throug
: wise laws and adequate appropria
: lions, has provided, within tn
+ states means, for proper care an
2 treatment of the wards of the sta'
. in state institutions. We plede
ourselves to a continuance of IN
humanitarian policy.

that the laws designed to enforce
the eighteenth amendment should
be impartially enforced in the same
manner as every other law enacted
by the legislature.
Republican Achievements
The achievements OF President
Harding and congress have been
wrought as the aftermath OF elgnl
years of Democratic rule over
whelmingly repudiated BY the vol-
ers of the nation in 1920. We vera
left technically at war with a large
part OF the world. with uncertain
| international relations, with war
waste and extravagance, with nigh
war taxes, and with agricutturai
and Industrial depression and wide
spread unemployment.
Control of Coal Prices
We commend the action Of Pres
ldent Harding in his successful eff
fort TO settle the coal strike, and we
commend congress for passing an
act to investigate all the facts con-
corning the industry and to empow-
er agencies of the federal govern
ment to equalize the distribution OF
coal at fair prices.
We favor the enactment of legis-
latiou in this state, similar to the
laws recently passed in New York,
by the Republican legislature ana
governor. to enable our state au-
thorities to safeguard consumer
| against the shortage of coal and ex-
tortionate prices.
National Issues
We heartily endorse the admins
tration of President Harding 1te
spirit and its achievements We
4, heartily commend the efficient and
patriotic services of our two United
States senators, Joseph s. Frehng-
huysen and Walter E. Edge, and
our Republican representatives IN
congress.
Limitation of Armameuts
On American soil, under the
;. American flag, under the Republic
can administration, has been held
Il a peace conference which has ac-
! , complished more for the cause OF
, world peace than ever before nc-
complished in all recorded history.
Protective Tariff
We must either make our goods
at home or buy them abroad. II we
buy abroad our own people are idle,
E our mills silent. our prosperity de-
S stroyed. Our choice lies between
: opening our mills to the workmen
: of America or paying wages &c
workmen abroad. American indus
try. American wages. American
r standards of living. and American
e markets are threatened by a low
I priced competition of cheap foreign
8 labor, and unprecedented deprecia'
: ton OF foreign currency. American
s civilization could not be maintained
unless protected against this abnor.
NAL condition. A tariff bill has bee
enacted to protect the American
n farmer, the American workingman
e and American industry. from ruin
Gus competition, but with averag'
dutiable rates lower than those o
any previous protective tariff, with
= a provision for adjustment Of thos'
q rates flexible enough to meet tn
h conditions of the future.
Upon this record and upon thesa
pledges we invite the support AM
cooperation of the voters Of New
d Jersey.
