Farm Population

Farms continue to be the chief
sources of increased population in
the United States. More than us, 900
babies were born on farms during
1887, and 341, 200 of the farm popu-
1ation died. This leaves net in
crease of $4,000 persons. In addi-
ton to this number, $4,000 more
people moved from farms to town
than those that moved in the other
direction. The net increase in farm
population in 1887 was, therefore,
80, 900 persons.

Hard Corns on Fowls

Hard corns may be seen upon the
feet of many old fowls without ap-
pearing to cause the bird any in
convenience. When assesses form
through infection, however, the con-
dition may be more serious. The
commonly advised curative meas
ure, says the Rural New-Yorker, is
to open the abscess freely, flush
out the cavity with some simple dis
infectant, and place the affected
bird upon soft, clean litter. Joint
assesses may be caused by tuber-
cular infection Of the joint, when
no treatment is indicated except to
get rid Of the possible carrier of the
infection to healthy fowls.

URGES RUBBER TIRES
FOR FARM TRACTORS
Work Faster, Rutgers Re-
searchers Find.
By e. r. GROSS

10y I'VE 01tO0NC
The rubber tire constitutes one
more step in the progress of farm
machinery. It costs about the same
to operate tractor at part load as
at full load, and tractors on rubber
tires work faster, more economical
ly and last longer than they do on
steel, it has been determined by
tests at Rutgers university.
Farm machinery and wagons also
have lighter draft on rubber. The
rubber tire increases the effective
ness of the machine and the opera
tor by making it possible to do more
work in less time and with less wear
and tear.
The farmer is interested in trac-
tor use because it is cheaper to feed
tractor during the time of opera
ton than to feed horses all the time.
This is one of the reasons why trac-
tors have superseded horses to so
great an extent. Other reasons in
clude: The tractor conserves man
time; it does not need to rest at
night; it can work in extreme sum-
mer heat; it reduces farm chores;
it requires little attention when not
working. These things the farmer
recognized and appreciated as soon
as he learned that he could place
dependence in the tractor.
The tractor is being improved
steadily. Additional operating
speeds and rubber tires are among
the important improvements made
so far. The tractor will travel fast
er with less slippage and will pull
more with less fuel on rubber tires
than on steel rims with Jugs. This
is a general statement but condi-
tons vary so much for different jobs
that one cannot reduce it to an exact
per cent of extra power and fuel or
time saved.
Rubber tires are also being used
on other farm machines and wag-
ons. They reduce draft and make
it possible to pull heavier loads with
the same power. The rubber tire
has opened new possibilities of trac-
tor loading, using the right size ma
chine, combinations Of machines
and selecting proper operating
speeds. The greater use Of high
gear for field operations and for
hauling on the road is now recog-
nized. So, with rubber-tired trac-
tors, farm machines and wagons,
the farmer can work faster, save
time and fuel and, at the same time,
reduce the jo1ting and strain on
equipment generally increasing its
life.

BUT few LAWS
Only Six Measures
Enacted in First
Four Weeks

OLYMPIA - Revision of
the states social security set
up moved swiftly on several
fronts today as the 26th legis-
lature closed its fourth week
of law-making with only si,x
new laws actually enacted but
several score in the making.
Both houses were in adjournment
today, the 9th of the 60-day ses-
sion. While some legislators went
home. a number remained here TO
work on the various welfare pro-
grams. Highlighting progress on
social security bills were the fol-
lowing actions:
l. The house and senate appro-
priations committees studied rec
concentrations by Social Security
Director Charles F. Ernst calling
for a $4,000, 900 welfare program
for the coming biennium- This
would be a $4,000 600 slash under
what was spent this biennium.
2. Speaker John Sylvester of
the house was reported to be draft
ing a measure to be intr 0duced by
himself providing for a complete
revision of the social security set
UP which would be satisfactory"
to both right and ft-vsingers.
3. The senate social security
committee, following a conference
with county commissioners yester-
day. continued study Of new bill
to place the governor, Finance
Director Olaf L. Olsen and Ernst
on a commission 10 administer re-
lief. with counties assuming part
of the burden by talking over finan-
cial responsibility for direct relief

tons.
4. The house Unemployment re-
lief committee chairman, James

group would have the governor

bills ready to report out by We'd

changing them from the form they
