OATS ARf ECONOMICAL CROP Not Generally as Profitable as Some Other Grains, but Needed In Good Rotation. It Is sound farm business to sell some crops for cash. Farm manage ment surveys have shown that the safest and soundest practice Is to have about one-flfth of the total re ceipts on the farm come from sale of crops. The other fonr-flfths will come from the sale of live stock or live stock products. The crop that can usually be sold for cash most economically Is oats. Onts are not generally as profitable a crop to grow as some others, but a good rotation needs this small grain In It. It makes a very satisfactory con nectlng link between Che corn crop and the bay crop. Com. if sold as a cash crop makes a larger return to the acre, but com can usually be fed more profitably than It can be sold for cash. It Is ordinarily a cheaper feed than oats. Hence, If any crop Is to be sold. It should be the oats. WEIGHTS PER BUSHEL A bushel is regarded as a defi nite weight rather than a cubic measure In the estimates of pro duction and prices made by the bureau of crop estimates.

You can do it with the Caloric Pipelesa Furnace, which has revolutionized furnaco heat ing by doing away with pipes. It requires only one register, on the ground floor of your home, and thru this every room is made warm. The principle is simple and practical. As the heated air rises from the furnace thru the center of the register it spreads throughout the whole house, forcing the cold air down into the furnace. There it is purified by the intense heat, propedy moistened by a special water pan and again rises and circulates into every nook and comer. This' produces a delightful, warm and healthful atmosphere, of even temperature, in every room of the house. The Original Patented Pipeless FUrnace has numerous exclusive patented features that make it unequalled for heat capacity economy and eovenience. Easily installed in one day in any house, new or olcL : Burns any fuel. Takes litde room. There is no smoke, coal, rjas or dirt in the house no heat-wasting, expensive pipea in walls or cellar. The cellar is always cool enough for etor ing fruits and vegetables. There is no fire danger no bother to keep the furnace in first-class condition. We guarantee its satis factory operation or we will take it ovt. We also guarantee a sarins of at least one-third of your fuel bill. Do not confuse the Calorie with outer pipeless furnaces. It is not merely a furnace without pipes, but is built on an entirely new principle in furnace heating-. The manufacturers have put into it the experiences of ninety-nine years in business. ana sta&e tneir repuiauon on its soiuij w meet every claim. Come in and see this wonderful furnace. Ask for our book "Progress," which is a fully illustrated explan&tion of pipelea heating, and how thi method is perfected in the CJoric Furnaca. It sivea every important fact about home heating and fuel armc. Let us show you this great furnace, and tell yoa whether it can be used in your ksuse to adranrayo. 1 .1 .1 . ?.
