Due to the lateness Of the season
and the bigness Of the problem Iron
county has decided to take the safer
road of ample preparation and CON
sideration in respect to the county
fair project. Whether Iron county
will have its own fair or join with
other counties will be consider ed
during the winter months when a
better chance is presented to tackle
and formulate plans.
Nevertheless, to take care of this
fair season, Iron county is to join
one of her sister counties that border
US on the east and west. Next week
the decision will be known and
broadcasted. So plan in getting
your exhibits in shape The county
agent advises special preparation in
showing the livestock to advantage,
the suggestions are explained below.
Select animals at once. 1t is
important that preparation of
animals start early. Select animals
with good top lines, deep middles,
we'll sprung ribs and in the case of
females the shape and size of milk
organs is very important
Animals must be in flesh. A good
covering of flesh adds to style, size
and smoothness. 1t helps put an
animal in bloom Cattle to be fitted
should be stabbed and dry fed
several weeks before showing. A
good fitting ration consists of
100 lbs. ground oats, 100 lbs. bran,
100 lbs. hominy, 100 lbs oil meal.
Remove the old hair. Animals
should be clipped all over at once.
This will allow a new and smoother
coat to develop before the show.
The animal will give cleaner-cut
appearance and be more attractive.
Blanketing. Blanket animals in
order to improve hair and hide.
Blanketing makes the hair lay to the
body and as a result of sweating, the
hide made more phable. This
practice also keeps the animal clean.
Train to lead and stand Every
animal to be shown should be better
broken II should be trained to
stop and stand properly A weak
backed animal should not be stretch
ed aud a sloppy rumped animal
should be stretched

COUNTY AGRICULTURAL NOTES
By W. J. He'll, Co. Agt.

Wisconsin's great industry-dairy-
ing-is receiving a great deal of
attention throughout the state. The
Dairy Week campaign IS focusing all
eyes to respect the value and useful
ness of that great 'human-benefact-
or'-the dairy cow Indeed, it is
not but right that we give her the
front page. The general health of
the whole country as we'll as the
general super-structure on which our
farms depend, are in great measure
the work of the dairy cow. The
health building element that is con
tanned in the 10000, 100000 pounds
Of milk that is produced yearly by
Wisconsin's 100000 dairy cows
beats all the pills in the country in
the battle for human welfare
The passers-by have undoubtedly
noticed the displays or exhibits at
the Iron Exchange Bank and the
Hurley National Bank windows.
These window displays are dedicated
to the Eat dairy products for
health cause. May the virtue of
the appeal get the desired results.

SHOULD KEEP
PACE WITH PROSPERITY

ATLANTA, March 4-Agricultural
prosperity, which should keep pace
with industrial and commercial pros
perity, does not always do SO, it was
pointed out here by agricultural ex..
perts of the Georgia Department OF
Agriculture In fact it is seldom that
the farmer prospcrs as he should from
the general business revivals IN the
country since rising prices of farm
products almost invariably are offset
by increased prices of everything the
farmer has to buy for his farm or his
family.
IF the farmer could prosper as
the wage earners have prospered,
said an official of the state agricultural
department, ''he would be in posi-
ton to make very marked change
for the better in rural home life con-
ditions. While farm products have in
creased in price and in demand, the
things the farmer has had to buy also
have increased greatly, so that the pro
Queer of the nations food has not gain
ed materially by the general prosper
ity."
What really is needed, state ag-
rc,,lturists point out, is an era of pros
peritv that will benefit both the work
err in the town and the worker on the
farm, for the farmer is, in practically
every respect wage-earner. He gives
his time to the work of his farm lie
EMPLOYS Experience and knowledge
gained by study and practice to Ia
bor that is the most important OF all.
