V 1 t ' . , . I ' 1 ' 1 r" ' it. c, July 2, ma I FARM DET.IONSTRATION AGENT COLUMN Contributed by EARLE BRINTNALL FARM TOUR-Don't say ou haven't time. Say "I'm going." If you wait until you have time to take a vacation from the farm you wilt never take it. There is always work to do on the farm and the only way to take a vacation is to get up and run away from the work. Plan to go; do the most important work before the time comes to go; leave the rest. It will be there when you come back. Perhaps something you see while on the trip will, enable you to do this work easier. WHAT DO YOU SAY? MORE CREAM PATRONS On Monday the number of people delivering cream at the station was the largest on any day so far. Fourteen different parties sold cream. The a mount of butterf at delivered by each patron varied from 1.8 lbs up to 39.37 lbs. Mr. Keys re ceived the largest check; he de livered the b'uterfat skimmed from the milk of five cows dur ing the preceding week. He had 87 Y lbs. of cream which tested 45 per cent butterfat, making 39.37 lbs. of fat, which at the price paid was worth $13.78. Had he sold this fat in the form of butter, he would have received $2.38 less at 25c per pound butter, and $4.60 less at 20c per pound for, tjle butter. The cream station makes it possible for anyone in the coun ty to sell cream. Of course it is easier for those who live close by but nearly every fam ily in the county sends someone to town once a week. Why not send them on Monday and let them take the cream along. It is possible for several fami lies to take turps in delivering the cream ; each week one per son can bring in the cream of several different families. You do not have to come in person. The same treatment is received whether the patron is there himself or not. At the present time 3 people are delivering cream from, one locality. They do not all come with the cream. One of them brings the entire lot. Each has his separate can and each receives the same at tention. More localities should adopt this plan, v It will bring larger returns than selling the churned butter with less Work. TRY IT., ; BEAUTIFUL - FLOCKS O F POULTRY That word beau tif ulr scarcely "seems IKTright word but that is what the flocks we "are thinking of really are. We saw each of these flocks the past week and could not but re mark the appearance of thrift, of health, and of quality- in each of the flocks. Last Wed nesday we visited the flock of White Leghorn pullets which Mr. and Mrs. Oljn Jarrett- are raising. (We say Mr. and Mrs. for we are, not going to give Olin all the credit.) They were beauties indeed. Snow white feathers, clean legs, and bright red combs a'nd wattles, all evidencing health and thrift, indicating quality, and leading one to believe that they had received the needed attention from the cartetaker. Size was also there; they will make 5 to 6 pounds hens. They will have the capacity to use the food that is necssary if a good egg yield is obtained There does not seem to be any room for doubting a statement that this flock of chickens will pay a nice profit. Friday we saw the flock of Barred Plymouth Rocks owned by Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Eller. (We are strongly convinced that Mrs. Eller had something to do with this flock.) -Mr. Eller ordered 100 day-old chicks last spring and raised nearly '90 of these. . They are large birds now, having been hatched the first of March, and the 40 or more pullets which he has from this lot will be laying early in the fall. Besides this lot of chicks he has bought and hatched several., settings of eggs from the Barred Rock flock of Mrs. J. E. Bryan and has a number of pretty birds from these eggs. Mr. Eller has several fine cockerels for sale We know these birds could be used to good advantage in many flocks over the county. Like the Jerretts the Ellers have given their young flock the best of care and feed and have been rewardecTby secur ing as clean and as healthy looking lot of birds as could be wished and these birds are large and growthy. There are other good, flocks of poultry in the county; other flocks that because of the attn-. tion given them are giving promise of yielding to the own ers a neat income-' There ar several people who have built niodem' houses for their flocksr there are some who have such houses in process of construe-. tion, there are many other who. say ;they are going to efeetr, 1 -J.' .. ... t J',- I. V 'i i houses before winter. JiFe hope ' that these last will do this very ! very thing for without a house it s impossibhvto get the best results from laying hens. The experience of some 'of those in our own county the, past year proves this. Their hens were not laying but as soon as a good house was built and the hens were in it they began to lay. Let's get the hen houses. DON'T FORGET THE FARM TOUR. PLAY y: A LITTLE, VISIT SOME, SEE. A LOT, THINK A LOT MORE.: THEN COME HOME, MAKE A VISIT TO YOUR OWN? HOMEl YOUR PLAY WILL RESTED BOTH MUSCLE AND MIND yellow YOUR VISIT, YOUR SEEING, YOUR THINKING, WHILE AWAY WILL HAVE OPENED THE WAY FOR MORE SEE. ING AND MORE THINKING WHILE AT HOME. TRY IT.

PROFIT AND PLEASURE Every week in this paper is, mention of a six days outing planned by our farm agent, Mr. Brintnall, for the farmers of Madison County. This is one of the best trips that could be taken by our farmers and we hope .that many of them will plan ahead to take advantage of this opportunity. Get out among other farmers and spend a few days in getting acquainted with those who can help you to make a success of your business.
