FARM NOTES.
—Buckwheat is in general the best
grain crop for poor, thin land. Its
natural and favorite environment is
“back in the hills.” On land where
wheat or even rye can not be grown
with profit buckwheat is often able to
produce a profitable yield. The cli-
matic conditions, however, must be fa-
vorable.
On acid soils, which are quite com-
mon in the northeastern States, buck-
wheat does well. It does not require
large supplies of lime in the soil, al-
though lime is taken up largely by
the plant.
Low-grade fertilizers may be used
to advantage in the growing of buck-
wheat, as it can make use of relative-
ly insoluble material to better advan-
tage than the other grain crops. It
may be used to render available in-
soluble phosphates, like rock phos-
phate, as these are taken up by the
plant in larger quantities than by
other small grains. To obtain the
greatest benefit from such applica-
tions to following crops, the buck-
wheat should be grown as a summer
cover crop to be plowed under as
green manure in preparation for fall
seeding.
Buckwheat serves to make even
very hard land mellow and friable.
Consequently it is a good crop to use
in preparation for such crops as po-
tatoes.
As it has a short growing period,
buckwheat can be grown on land
where spring-sown-. crops, such as
corn, have failed to make a stand. It
can also be used where the land can
not be worked until late, or where
other crops have been drowned out
by late spring floods.
Buckwheat can be used to enlarge
farm activities. After other crops
that must be sown early are all in
there is often time to prepare land
and sow buckwheat. On account of
the short growing season it may be
sown later than any other grain crop.
Where it is used it often may be ad-
visable to sow it even on rich land
which otherwise could be used more
profitably for other crops.
Farmers’ Bulletin 1062 contains full
information on this crop. Copies may
be had free on application to the De-
Pariment of Agriculture, Washington,
—India’s Export Duty May Aftect
U. S. Hide Market.—The imposition
of a duty of 15 per cent. upon all
hides and skins exported from Brit-
ish India probably will be seriously
felt in the markets of this country,
according to the Bureau of Markets
of the United States Department of
Agriculture, since India is one of the
principal sources of America’s supply
of goatskins, buffalo hides, and calf-
skins, and also has sent this country
quantities of cattle hides, the total
for the fiscal year of 1919 being 2,-
096,708 pounds. In 1917 the total was
several times that amount.
In 1919 the United States imported
89,004,628 pounds of goatskins. Of
this amount 41,967,890 pounds, or 47
per cent. came from India. Out of a
total importation of 9,514,989 pounds
of buffalo hides, 58 per cent. were im-
ported from India. Fourteen per
cent. of our calfskins and 7 per cent.
of our sheepskins also, came from the
British colony.
—Insurance in Pig Club.—Two
things, at least, distinguish a pig
club of 37 boys and girls in Knox
county, Ill. One is that in the past
season the members raised $9,115
worth of hogs. Another is that the
club organization provides insurance,
the Knox County Swine Breeders’ As-
sociation agreeing to pay two-thirds
of the amount of losses if the mem-
bers would pay one-third. No losses
occurred during the past year.
of eggs it is necessary to have
healthy, vigorous stock, properly fed.:
The following are good grain mix-
tures for the laying stock, the propor-
tions being by weight:

Cracked corn
Raticn 3

cracked corn cracked corn
Wheat ©. parts oats 1 part oats
Oats 1 part wheat
A choice of any one cof these rations
should be scattered in the litter twice
daily, morning and evening.
Hither of the following suggested
dry-mash mixtures should be fed in a
dry-mash hopper, allowing the fowls
to have access to it at all times.
Mash No. 1. Mash No. 2.
2 parts cornmeal 3 parts corn meal
1 part bran 1 part beef scrap
1 part middlings
When fowls do not have access to !
natural green feed, sprouted oats,
cabbage, mangles, cut clover, etc.,
should be fed.
When wet mashes are fed, be sure
that they are crumbly and not sticky.
Plenty of exercise increases the egg
yield.
Fresh, clean drinking water should
be always provided. Charcoal, grit,
and oyster shell should be placed be-
fore the fowls so that they can have
access to them at all times.

—Extensive investigations have
convinced specialists of the Bureau of |
Chemistry, United States Department |
of Agriculture, that undrawn poultry, |
contrary to the general impression, !

passing through trade channels than
does drawn poultry. The experiments
revealed that the drawing of poultry
as practiced commercially always re-
sulted in the bird becoming contami-
nated with bacteria, which caused
spoilage.
These bacteria multiply rapidly.
Their growth is checked by cold stor-
age but is not entirely stopped. If it
were practicable to draw poultry with
the same precautions used by sur-
geons in performing an operation—
with sterile instruments and rubber
gloves, and under strictly scientific
and sanitary conditions, so that there
would be no bacterial contamination
—the drawn poultry would be prefer-
able to the undrawn. However, it is
not regarded as practicable under or-
dinary commercial conditions to adopt
such safeguards.

berculosis, diphtheria, typhoid fever, |

against any repetition of such alarms | Show quite plainly—and even take
when the cold weather is upon us, or
when productive industries urgently
need fuel to employ and produce. Coal
mining and transportation must not

There has been a growing impa-
tience with industrial disputes carried
on with an utter disregard of the un-
offending public and henceforth there
will be insistence that such disputes,
affecting matters so vital to all the
people as the supply of fuel or the
transportation of all supplies and
products, must be adjusted wthout in-
$szrupson of such necessary activi-
ies.
That this can be insisted upon with-
out any infringement upon personal
liberty—without denying to any man
or combination of men the right to
work or not work—has been fully
demonstrated; for the public also has
rights which can be so asserted as not

to it, as happens when coal miners or
others who do such necessary labor
are unreasonable and threaten a hold-
up; and the right and duty of pro-
viding in advance against such emer-
gencies as war or other disasters are
provided for.
Whether this defense is to be
sought merely by government super-
vision of both transportation and coal-
mining or by such supervision with
government financial assistance as
may be essential remains to be consid-
ered, but adequate protection at these
danger points is demanded.—Lancas-

Students of economics protest in
vain against extravagance which has '
swept like a forest fire from one end
of the country to the other and is,
largely responsible for the high cost |
of living.
Never before have the American
people squandered their money more |
recklessly in satisfying their whims. '
New York, of course, is the center of |
luxury buying, but conditions there
are reflected to a lesser extene every-
where else in the United States. The |
coal miner tried before Judge Ander-
son in Indianapolis for violating the
prohibition law acknowledged himself |
fhe owner of his home and an automo- |
ile.
tor cars and the pursuit of pleasures |
are costing the American people mil-
of which might be saved if any one
nowadays practiced thrift.
A significant system of the buying
mania is a disregard of prices. When
people with plenty of money to spend
pride in their folly—that they do not
care what is charged them, is it any
wonder that other people, being mere-
ly human after all, are tempted to get
all they can?
There are more causes advanced for
the high cost of living than there are
varieties of pickles, but one cannot be
refuted, and that is national extrav-
agance.—Birmingham Age-Herald.

Do You Have
a Bank Account?
If you don’t you are depriving yourself of
the advantages that the splendid banking in-
stitutions of Centre County offer you.
Any one of them will open an account
with you for what might appear to you as
only a trifling deposit, because bankers know
that small deposits often grow to become
large ones, as people discover what saving
means to them. There is a lot in that old song about
a little bit added to what you’ve got makes a little bit
more. And when you put a little bit in the bank in-
variably you commence to get interested in seeing it
grow.
The Centre County Bank
at Bellefonte will be glad to open an account
with you to prove how easy and beneficial to you it is
to save.
