Mine Work Increasing

SHERIDAN.-Last week, during
which h Monarch mine worked four
days. and the Acme mine three. Civ
ing employment to 800 men, marked

production slump. Edward Bottom.
ley, division superintendent of the
Sheridan-wyoming Coal company
said Monday.
Total coal production for the week
was 10000 tons. Heretofore, the
mines have been working only one

The Speed of Lies

Some long time ago, some guy said, "A Lie travels
on horseback" That was speedy going for that day,
but it doesn't do for this day. Like everything else
the lie has spoeded up. It travels now by n series
of ways, automobile, ~airplane, telegraph, telephone
and wireless. Sometimes it travels by all these
methods at once and thereby secures wider cir
~culation. But the wide-awake lie no longer travels
by horseback.
A pair of lies have bean racing over the country
for quite some time. One is that American farmers
due to economic conditions in Europe, have lost
their foreign markets. The other is the statement
that farm prices go up or down as exports of
farm products go up or down, and the prosperity
Of the American farmer depends upon an increase
in his exports
It In needless To say whore these lies originated,
for most folks know that they came from tho ad-
vocates OF the league OF nations From those who
desire AInerica to become involved in European do
nestle affairs. They were told in order to deceive
strongly opposed to becoming concerned in Euro
pean quarrels.
This propaganda agninst American traditions
no other interest than the one named and why
Americans should rcpudiate American principles
may be explained possibly from tho fact that the
checks in payment for the seryics rendered como
from some international source that will deriyp
profit through the contamination OF lust such an
arrangement AZ the league OF nations VIII foster.
Every official docurcnt touching upon the rub-
ject of foreign markets issued by any DEPARTMENT
OF our government, furnishes conclusive proof that
the fnrFner today is selling Europe ynsfiY greater
quantities OF agricultural products than he did in
any year prior TO the World War.
The American farmer is selling more TO Europo

was replaced by the New Jersey
State Highway Department, consist
ed of a reconstructed macadam base,
with a two inch bituminous surface.

on a paved width of 18 feet. This
section was built in 1915 and the
repairs due to the heavy traffic cost
the State ~s14,250.00 a mile, during
1920. New Jersey did a wise thing
to lear out this old road and build
a modern highway. providing for
four lanes of traffic, with a paved
width of 80 feet and a graded width
of forty feet and nine inches of port

The Ideal Section was designated
to carry a traffic of 10000 vehicles

The Lincoln Highway Association is
anxious that the general public ap-

tion of it's model section, which
without doubt will some day be con-
tinuous from Chicago to New York

New Poultry Plant at University

New Poultry Plant at University
Ground has been broken for a
twelve thousand dollar Poultry
Plant at the Animal Husbandry Ex-
detrimental Farm of the University.
This plant is designed t meet the
needs of instruction in poultry and
the main building includes a labora-
tory equipped for egg Gambling,
caponizing and Judging work, a class
room, a large student incubator
cellar, a killing room, and a feed
room.
Many problems. particularly ON
the incubation and feeding of chicks,
have been presented to the Animal
Husbandry Department by poultry
men over the State. This new plant
includes facilities for running ex-
periments on these various problems.
A special incubator room is provided
for experimental tests.
Running at right angles to the
main building is a laying house CON
sisting of six, twenty by twenty foot
units. Three of these units are
floored with concrete, three with
dirt. so that the test may be made

type, providing extra window space
is equipped with the most acceptable
types of roosts and nests.
In designing this plant, particular
ly the laying house unit, attempts
have been made to make it as prac-
ticable as possible, and yet of de-
sirable construction, so that Poultry
men over the State might profit
thereby. 1t is true that the main ex-
pense involved centers around in
structional needs, which the COM
mercial Poultrymen would not be
confronted with, class and labora-
tory rooms not being a part of the
commercial plant. Therefore, the
cost of the plant is not wholly COM
parable with that of commercial
plants.
Results of Potato Investigations
The results of potato ~investiga-
tons at the State Experimental
Station, according to Professor A. F..
Vass of the Agronomy Department,
showed Pearls to be the highest
yielding variety under irrigation,
with Red Mcclure and Melted Gem
ranking close. The Rural and Ohio
groups gave good yields with the
highest percent of marketable tubers
1920 for the Rurals, and $500
for the Ohios grading U. S. No. 1.
Bliss Triumph and Cobbler were
third and fourth respectively with
91:7% and s1.2% marketable
tubers.
A large amount of work will be
done this year ON a study of the
different strains of our standard
varieties. The yields of different
strains within a variety may vary
even more than the yields of the
different varieties.
The work on rotations showed a
1909 increase in Pearls on alfalfa
land as compared to the Pearls
grown on land hat had been in
grain for several years.
