IF SKIN BREAKS
OUT AND |TCHES
APPLY SULPHUR

Just the moment you apply Men,
tho-Sulphur to an itching, burning
or broken out skin, the itching stops
and healing begins, says noted skin
specialist. This sulphur preparation,
made into a pleasant cold cream,
gives such quick relief, even to
fiery eczema, that nothing has ever
been found to take its place.
Because of its germ destroying
properties, it quickly subdues the
itching, cools the irritation and heals
the eczema right ly, leaving a clear
smooth skin in place of ugly erup-.
tons. rash, pimples or roughness.

Magnetic Springs
Given New Life
by Woman Mayor
PAGE 2
Dry Associated Press)

Magnetic Springs, Ohio, Feb. s.
Mrs. Mary McFadden, who was so
years ,old last December, has been
appointed mayor of this village, and
thereby hangs tale Of how the
secretary of the Commerce club here
originated and put through to sue
ccssful conclusion, the idea of bring
ing publicity to a health resort
whose popularity appeared to be
waning.
AS Secretary Williams, Of the
Commerce club, tells it, this little
health resort of 200 residential citi-
zens, tucked away in the country, Ia
miles over rutty roads from the near
est town, Delaware, was in rut and
something had to be done.
When Mayor Nathan 0. Brown an
nounced his intention of spending
the winter in Florida, Secretary Will
liams conceived the idea. eve will
appoint a woman mayor" he sug-
gested, and prevailed upon Mayor
Brown to name Mrs. McFadden to
act during his absence, giving as his
reason that Mrs. McFadden was the
oldest woman in town capable of act
ing as mayor during Browns alb
sence.
This was done and Secretary Will
liams got busy in the publicity end
of the venture. Almost overnight
Magnetic Springs became known as
the home of the oldest woman mayor
in the country. The old bus to Del
aware that had almost stopped oper-
ating for lack Of patronage, once
more took on life and did thriv-
ing business, particularly with news
paper reporters and curiosity seek
erS.
Mrs. McFadden met the newspaper
boys and frankly told them: 81
hardly know what it is all about.
Secretary Williams issued announce
ments concerning her policies.
But this was not all. The state
officials at Columbus questioned
the legality of her acting as mayor
They pointed out that the job auto
matically fell upon the shoulders Of
the president pro tenn. of the village
council. Secretary Williams was
equal to the emergency. { He Undue
ed a councilman to resign, if neces.
sary, and then induced the president
pro TEN. to resign as president OF
council and the way was paved tc
have Mrs. McFadden fill the position
as president pro tenn. of the council
and thereby assume the office of
mayor.
And Magnetic Springs has been
turned into a thriving village, ac-
cording to Secretary Williams.

CLOVER AND GRASS MIXTURE
Alfalfa, Red and AIsike Glover, limo
thy, Red Top and Fescues Are
Recommended.

There has been considerable break
ing away from old notions in the
matter of seeding for pastures and
meadows, and in many instances with
very conspicuous success. Clovers are
subject to so many vicissitudes that
good stands are no longer obtainable
on many farms. On the other hand,
just those conditions which may be
adverse to clovers may be very favor
able to certain kinds of grasses, and
this has led to the sowing of mixtures
of several clovers and grasses, in
which grasses predominant.
The common notion is that clover
and timothy is the only useful mix
ture but clover quickly disappears and
timothy does not furnish much after
math, and consequently does not sup
ply pasturage for any great length Of
time. With a rich mixture of alfalfa,
red and alsike clover, timothy, red top,
orchard grass and some of the fescues,
a. lasting, nutritious growth is OBJ
tanned and as the clovers disappear
these finer grasses come in and a
durable and palatable pasture is as
sured all through the season.

the farmers in close fellowship with

One Of the best ways of becoming
acquainted is in connection with cream
delivery to the creameries Of the coun-
ty, according to John Klinka, county
agent. There are about 5000 dairy
men who are delivering cream each
week, to be made into delicious Polk

In some communities, each farmer

and the close season for them must
be observed. The game laws for 1922,
issued by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture as Farmers Bull
letin 1898, shows the requirements in
each state. In some states rabbits may
be taken with dog, trap, or snare at any
time. but must not be shot during the
close season. In number Of states
having a close season for rabbits the
laws permit farmers and fruit grow
ers to destroy the animals to protect
crops or trees.
Poisoned Bait Used.
Poisoned bats can be used to keep
down the numbers of rabbits where
domestic animals can be prevented
from gaining access to the poison.
Shooting for sport and using for meat,
however, is preferable and will usual
Iy hold the animals in check Rabbit
proof fences can be probably built
when the area to be protected is not
too large. Various washes distasteful
to rabbits are recommended for use
on tree trunks, as well as different
mechanical contrivances to keep the
hungry animals from eating the bark
and girdling the trees. Feeding rab-
bits in winter with winter prunings Of
apple trees or corn, cabbage, or tur-
nips has been practiced successfully IN
some orchards, on the theory that it is
cheaper to feed than to fight them.

sPRoUTING OATS FOR FOWLS
Essential Where Roots or other Green
Feeds Are Not Available for
Poultry.

Sprouted oats is rather necessity
than luxury for poultry in winter,
particularly if roots or other green
feeds are not availab1e Only the best
grade OF oats, plump and heavy, should
be used. They should be handled in
such a manner as to reach maximum
growth quickly Six quarts of oats are
placed in a ten-quart galvanized tin
pail which is filled with water OF.
temperature not over 100 degrees Fab
renheit, to which has been added ten
drops of formalin to prevent mold.
The oats are allowed to soak in
this pail for 48 hours during which
they will have absorbed all the water.
They are next spread evenly in the
trays of the sprouting rack to the
thickness of about an inch. The rach
is kept in room the temperature Of
which is maintained at not less than
60 degrees, and the oats are thor.
ough1y sprinkled with water twice a
day. In from seven to ten days, ac-
cording to the temperature of the
room, the sprouts SnouId pc from lour
to six inches in height, which is about
right for feeding. BY this time the nu-
trients of the seed will have become
exhausted and the sprouts will depre-
ciate in food value if not fed quickly.
The oats will form a mat nearly
four times the weight of the original
seed. 1t should be fed in the tray, as
it grows, at the rate of one square
inch per bird per day. Once a day
is enough to feed it. If managed

SOY BEAN OF MUCH BENEFIT
Enables Farmer to Produce High-Pro-
tein Concentrates at Home-Sup-
pIements Other Feeds.

Leguminous crops, such as clovers
and aIfalfas, are richer in protein
than non-leguminous crops, such as
timothy, bluegrass, etc. At present
leguminous crops are mostly grown
for forage, and when concentrates rich
in protein are needed to balance ra-
tons, they must ha purchased in the
form of faxseed meal, cottonseed meal
or tankage.
The soy bean offers partial solu-
ton to this problem by Enabling the
farmer to produce his high-protein
concentrates at home Soy beans yield
anywhere from 10 to 25 bushels an
acre of seed, depending on soil and
season. Soy beans may be ground
and used to supplement other feeds.

Toads have been reputed to aid in
curling the numbers of injurious in
sects and other similar pests. To as
certain the facts in the case the bio
logical survey of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture has analysed
the contents of the stomachs of SOP
common toads, and reports that while
the findings regarding the choice OF
food are of interest they thus far fail
to demonstrate that toads are of great
economic Importance. Toads go con-
stantly about their own work Of gain
ing livelihood, and so undoubtedly
fill their proper place in nature. They
are never very numerous in one local.
ity, however and as they cannot adopt
the methods OF birds and traverse
wide stretches of land to aid in COM
batting abnormal local increases OF
crop and garden pests, their influence
is not strongly felt. The investigation
shows that a certain portion Of the
tOad's food Is made up of injurious
insects and other pests of growing
plants, and that the toad performs
some service in such places as green
houses, gardens, fields of small grain,
and golf courses. Any harm that toads
do in the consumption of beneficial
beetles and other insects useful to man
is Of little economic Importance and
does not warrant their indiscriminate
destruction.

Stockholders Voice Sentiment.
All cooperative creameries have an
annual meeting which all the patrons
attend, mix with one another and ex-
change ideas. At these meetings mat
tiers of business pertaining to the
operation of the creamery also come
up for discussion, and each stockhold-
er has a chance to have his say-so.
In the organization of each cooper
alive creamery there is creamery
board. This body consists of three to-
seven members including the creamery
secretary the buttermaker and three
to i've directors. The board meets
regularly once a month and audits the

FINISH POULTRY FOR {..ARKET
plump, Well Fattened Fowl Will Bring
More Money and Sell Far
More Readily.

No up-to-date farmer would think Of
marketing his cattle or hogs in a poor
or unfinished condition, because. to do so
would mean a loss of money; but on
many farms poultry is seldom properly
finished before marketing. A plump
well-finished bird will sell more readily
and bring a few cents more per pound,
besides being worth more on account
of the increase in weight, than a poor,
scrawny fowl. Moreover, producing
finished poultry is a quick business and
profits are soon realized
