LIONS CLUB GOES
u FOR IMPROVE
MENTS IN EARNEST

Having succeeded in getting an
ordinance put through which will
greatly improve the present problem
Of refuse disposal. the Lions Club, at
its weekly luncheon meeting last
Thursday, declared through various
members that it was not content to
sit back. but would continue its
work Of civic improvement.
The committee on dumping
question made an exhaustive report.
to the great instruction and amuse-
ment of all present. Following out
the substance of various resolutions
adopted at the last meeting Of the
Mayor and board Of trustees. these
officials will take immediate steps
to have the hill on the Lincoln
Highway east of town swept free
from Its present accumulations OF
refuse. and will establish a more
compact dump in what are known as
the Alkali Lake beds. The road
leading to this new dump will be
built out over. and follow the prog
ress of, the dump planned, much as
a Stag heap road is constructed at a
mine. In this way all refuse will be
confined to a comparatively small
area.
ne committee on tree, SnruD, and
lawn planting reported that several
improvement projects of Importance
were being developed. including the
Memorial hospital. the Elks home.
the Catholic church. and many resi-
dental jobs of considerable size.
These improvements are all being
made at this time so that the own

EGG MARKETING SUGGESTIONS

Many poultrymen and dealers who
are marketing South Dakota eggs
through the eastern centers are meet
ing with the embarrassing experience
of having their products discounted
because of inferior size.
It is evident that a surprisingly
large per centage of the eggs produc-
ed in this section are under standard
weight. The market demands a mean
weight of two ounces per egg OF "a
ounces per dozen, or IS pounds net
for a 30-dozen case. There is nc ad-
vantage in producing eggs that eX-
coed "a ounces per dozen, but there
Is a real loss il they fall below this
standard.
This marketing handicap should
give u poultrymen considerable con-
Germ. However. it is a condition which
in a large measure may be remedied.
All breeders should be urged to use
mature hens in breeding pens and
thereby insure larger eggs and larger
and stronger chicks. Pullets that
have reached the. producing age in
the fall usually lay heavily up to and
through the breeding season and as
a consequence their eggs are often
weak in fertility and Matching quality.

THESE REPORTS APPLIED WILL

BroOkings, S. d., March 6.-A num-
Der of valuable reports on a%gricultur.
al conditions in this country are to
be issued in the course of the next few
months. Careful study of these re-
ports and a proper balancing of crops
In the light of conditions to be reveal
ed, according to the farm economies
department at State College. will
mean money in the pockets of every
South Dakota farmer.
The number Of acres of spring
sown crops put in by farmers, the de-
partment points out, should be largely
governed not only by what their inn
mediate neighbors are doing, but by
what all of the farmers in the United
States expect to do. For example, If
a farmer expects to put in a rather
large acreage ofwheat, he may find
on studying the expected sowings of
other farmers that it will pay him To
substitute some other grain or crop
for a part of his wheat acreage.
A report showing the intentions of
farmers in the whole United States as
regards the planting of spring crops
will be issued March Is by the United
States Department Of Agriculture.
This is early enough for. most farmers
in this state to make whatever change
in their acreages they think advis-
able. This report will be followed by
one to be issued April 3 showing the
condition Of winter wheat and rye. A
third report showing the number of
acres and condition of winter wheat
and rye will be made available May
s. and a similar report for other crops
on June Q.
The amount of corn, wheat, oats
and barley on farms March 1 will be
published March 10, which report. is
OF prime Importance to the corn grow
er and TO the feeder of livestock, for
after all demand and supply still play
an important part in determining the
price of corn and other grains.
Livestock reports are issued at the
beginning Of each year. showing the
estimated change in number of head
on farms. These reports should form
a basis for intelligent Judgment as
to which classes Of livestock are in
creasing and- which are decreasing in
number. The aim of this report is
to prevent extremes OF over and under
production.

State College agronomist, in discuss
ing varieties of corn for this state.
However. within a long term of years,
several varieties have been developed
which are very well known and which
may serve as standards for judging
other varieties. They may also be-

II birds are Matched SO late they do
not start laying till the breeding sea-
son opens, their eggs will be under
sized and have a tendency to hatch
out chicks that are more or less
stunted or runty, like the parents, and
in turn lay the small underweight
eggs which the market spurns.
The size of the egg is in a large
measure an Inheritance, hence, in Sc
lecting eggs for Matching, only the
eggs up to standard weight should be
taken. Often mature hens lay small
eggs-and these birds are often the
heaviest layers-but if one accepts
such eggs for Matching he is just per
petuing a small egg strain.
The mOngrel flock Of all sizes, types
and colors. is a great drawback to the
production of a uniform marketable
product. EGGS from such loCks vary
greatly in size and color and add
much to the costs for sorting. grading
and packing.
Much of the problem of the small
egg may be solved if all poultrymen
will cooperate in selecting lod hens
for breeders, Matching stock early to
get a good growth and development
before the cold of winter comes, using
only market size eggs for Matching
and boosting for more good standard
bred poultry to replace the mongreI
focks now 50 numerous on the farms
of the state.
