Families Growing Smaller.

Changes in the Size Of the Amer
lean Families in One Generation" Is
the title OF monograph just issued as
No. 10 in the series Of the University
of Wisconsin studies. 1t is the work Of
Prof. Ray E. Baber Of the University
OF Illinois, and Prof. e. A. Ross of the
University of Wisconsin, assisted by
Miss Jeanette Halverson, also of the
Badger university.
The big thing we found Is that
among Americans of native parentage
belonging to the middle class in the
central United States, the shrinkage
in family size between the present
generation whose families are filled
and their parents, is 1875 percent"
says Prof Ross in the foreward.
Moreover the present generation
averages but 2.8 child per couple,
which is about one child short of
what they should have in order to re-
place themselves. 1t is significant
also that Is percent of the unions are
infertile while nearly 18 percent of
them have produced but one child"
Teh study is based on the results of
questionnaires mailed to native-bOrn
American families throughout the
middle west, many of whom were
reached through students at the Uni
versity of Wisconsin. This included
some $50 families of generation ago
and $500 families of their descendants
in this generation.
1t is population study that has as
cended from families of their parents,
and not only among college graduates
but among the educated and occupa-
tional groups. THUS we have elimi-
mated the factor Of difference in fam
lily traditions and have left chiefly
change in conditions and the spirit of
the times" say the investigators.
An Independent study was conducted
by Miss Halverson among 100 depen-
dent families and it was found that
they raise an average of 6.5 children
apiece

FARMERS LIQUIDATE

While Democratic and radical cam
paigners are raising calamity bowls
for the promotion OF their own po-
litical interests. it is interesting to
read in the news columns of the
Democratic press articles which com
pletely refute the assertions of the
politicians. Here is a quotation
from the New York Times under the
heading Farmers Pay Off Loans"
THE Agricultural Credit Corpora
ton Is ready to close its affairs as
"A result of the upturn in grain prices
in the Northwest, which accelerated
the corporations work of restoring
Northwestern banks to a sound foot
ing. The corporation was formed
last January as a cooperative effort
by bankers and the United States
Government to rescue the Northwest
wheat-growing district from financial
plight. Its work progressed rapidly
but in the last half Of the summer
an unexpected boon came in the form
of an upturn in commodity prices.
Announcement Of the conclusion
of its major activities was made yes

Conference on Wood
Utilization Called by
Secretary Wallace

Secretary Wallace has issued a call
for a national conference on the util-
ization of forest products, according
to an announcement from the Forest
Service United States Department of
Agriculture, made public today.
This meeting. which rs to be held
in Washington on November 10 and
20. will mark the most comprehens-
i've attempt ever made in the United
States to have the economical use
of existing timber supplies take its
essential place in the national for
estry program along with the pre-
vention Of forest fires and the grow
ing of timber crops, declare officials
of the Forest Service.
Can Reduce Drain on Forests
BY better ways Of manufacture and
use the drain on the country's forests
can be reduced at least o%ne-fourth,
Secretary Wallace states in his letter
to $50 representatives Of wood-using
industries, consumers, the building
crafts, and the general public who
have been asked to name 1000 men
and women to whom invitations to
attend the conference should be sent.
1t is planned to have the two-day
meeting attended by representatives
of both the wood-manufacturing and
wood-consuming industries of the
country. Newspapers, periodicals.
railroads, builders, achitects, forest
ers, forest schools, and the general
public will be represented. Secretary
Wallace will issue his invitations to
the conference as soon as possible
after receiving the responses to the
letters he mailed today.
In his letter the Secretary said:
"As you know the question of tim
Der supply is becoming more acute
year by year We are studying it
from three angles; first, how to pro-
tect the timber we have from fire,
insect pests and plant diseases: sec
ond, how to encourage the growing
of more timber. both ON national for
ests and private forests: third, how
, 1924-10-02
to cut down the waste in the manu-
facture and use of wood.
Joint Action il Necessary

Vail 30
I'VE believe that by better ways
of manufacture and use the drain on
Il forests can be reduced by at least
one-fourth. This problem has not re-
ceived the attention it should have.
We need more facts than we have as
the basis for n workable program.
After considering the whole matter
carefully l have decided to call a ma
tional conference on wood wastes, to
be held in Washington. November
10 and 20, in the hope that such a
conference may be able to work out
a plan of joint action by Federal
State and industrial agencies. The
responsibility is a joint one in which
the public and the industries alike
have a vital interest.
THE thought is to invite repre-
sentatives Of all the associations and
industries financially interested in
the manufacture and use OF forest
products, as we'll as the representa-
tiyes of State forest organizations.
the trade and general press and pub
lie interest and educational groups.
1 am hoping hat you and several
others will come from your " as
ISOLATION, and l am asking II you
will suggest the names OF individuals
who will take a live interest in the
subject and to whom 1 can send per-
sonal invitations. l believe the pur-
pose of the conference is sufficiently
important to justify the time and
expense consumed in attending it."

at once Jim was very proud of his
bow and arrow and in pulling it back
it slipped and as it happened I was
in front of him and l received the
arrow in my chin and it stuck there
until l pulled it out. l had a very
nice dimple in my chin for many
moons but it happened to be a blunt
arrow and did very little damage,
but we were all scared. The old

called them then and Bull Whackers
(ox whackers would sound funny.
cannot remember who owned the
first bull teams except Ed Bennett
and George Gordon but in later
years 1879 and on there were Bells,
Smiths. Fairfields, Pat Sheahan,
Dennis Clancy and many others.
These teams were generally COM
posed Of about IA yoke or 20 bulls to
each 3 or 4 wagons and n man
to- drive and they hauled an enorm-
Gus load but 1t vas slow travelling.
They made about 20 miles a dag on
good roads, and did not travel in
the heat OF the day III in summer) (.
II they yoked up in the morning it
was done very early and they turned
loose about 9 or ten o'clock or
whenever 1t commenced to get hot
and would then yoke up again about
3 or 4 o'clock and travel until dark
or on a moonlit night much later.
have seen % yoke OF bulls (56)
pulling one wagon out of a mud hole.
The mud being plowed or pushed
ahead by the wogan box and the
front wheels almost out OF, sight.
But something had to come. Some
times 1t was the tongue and some
times it was the whole front gear
pulled from under the box and then
1t was a cas- OF unload and carry
out the merchandise in the wagon.
There are many today who are
not aware that oxen are shod Just
as you shoe horses and l have been
asked many times IL that was a fact
Instead Of being like a horse shoe
1t is in two pieces, a right and left
to fit the hoof on each side and
flattened out at n md.
The blacksmith who done the
shoeing had a stanchion or frame
erected and a bull was put in this
frame and a cowhide or canvas was
brought up under him with pulleys
and he vas lifted off his feet. He
was unable to kick and it was an
easy matter to nail on the shoes.
Much easier than shoeing a horse.
While on the subject | cannot re-

of Rawlins.
1t think it was in 1881 that Pat
Sheahan took his bull team to Pine
Grove. south of Rawlins, and turn

chains, camp outfit and everything
alongside the road there, and it so
happened that Bill Steers, John
