UPHOLDS USE OF
HORSES ON FARM
Educator Says Dobbin Costs
Less Than Gasoline and
Proves Fine Pet.

PURDUE. Ind, Dec. %. - The
cheapest way to pillow an acre OF
ground today is with a horse, and
the best way to keep the boys on
the farm is to give them good horses
TO drive, is the assertion of George
j. Christie, director of the Indiana
experiment station here. The horse,
in this gasoline period. also is rec
ognized as the most efficient and
economic motive power for short
hauls. he declares.
THE boys of today" said Mr..
Christie, know al about spark
plugs and Carburetors. they know
all about motor cars, but when il
comes to a horse they lack the
knowledge Of what to feed him, and
how to care for him. If you Will
put good horses on the farm you
viii create a love for them and the
boys will stay.
The fall in price of farm pro-
ducts has forced the farmer to con-
slider the economics of agriculture
and has made him consider the
horse more seriously with the re-
suit that the horse is coming back
onto the farm since he consume
what is raised and makes for cheap
motive power.
I'VE have formed calf clubs all
through the states. Why not or
ganiZe colt clubs 1t will require
effort but it must be done. We must
develop the business of raising more
colts and we must show that the
horse has great economic value on
the farm. When this is done we
Will not only have rendered n won
derful service but will have given
the farmer the chance to make some
of his just profits"

WHY
Am / a Church Member?

BECAUSE if nobody belonged to the
church, there would be no church;
and if the church left town, would
want to leave on the next train.
BECAUSE if share the blessings and the
privileges of the church. want to be
square enough to have a part in its
work
BECAUSE as the greatest organized force
for righteousness in the world, 1t
offers to me a better chance for the
real service of humanity the world
over, than any other institution.
BECAUSE. while it may be abstractly
possible to live a Christian life out
side of the church, knew that about
90 out of every 100 Christians are
members of the church I'll take hny
chances with the 90 rather than the
lone one.
