Miniature houses are built for the food, and the Indiana say their dead come to the houses at midnight and partake of it As a matter of fact, small animals and birds usually eat the food. cate that the public is satisfied with what we have. But it Is not true. Varieties of potatoes are needed that will not turn black after cooking; that will resist such diseases as scab, l, late blight, and that will resist leaf hoppers; and that will better tolerate heat and drouth. Much as the potato breeder has done, his Job has just begun. For more than 20 years the United States Department of Agriculture has been developing thousands of potato seedlings at its breeding stations. Attention centers especially on improvement in the shape of the tuber, the color and the texture of the skin, shallowness of eyes, cooking quality, and resistance to virus diseases. Three of the most promising varieties have been named and are now on trial with many growers in a few potato states. In order of their Introduction, these varieties are: the Katahdin, a handsome, shallow-eyeglossy potato; the Chippewa, promising early variety, whitethat may skinned and shallow-eyecompete with Irish Cobbler; and the Golden potato, medium in season, Other seedlings will be named and Introduced this year, but several years may pas before they become generally leaf-rol- yellow-dwar- f; d white-skinne- d d, Both la Foolish Class There are two kinds of fools.

VY ... : WNU W 33 35 BALANCED RATION FOR YOUNG TURKS Hard to Acquire So soon as a man feels that he Is losing his good looks, he might go In for looking distinguished. Adequate Nutrition Needed in Early Growth. But thats something that deep.; Isnt skin By L. E. Cline, University of Nevada, Agricultural Extension Expert. WNU Service. Unless young turkeys are fed a prop- er ration during their period of most growth, they are likely to show very poor net returns at marketing time. All the needed elements of nutrition must be provided in adequate quantities and in proper proportions to obtain maximum development. These requirements are not always taken seriously by some turkey raisers. At the present stage in their growth, the young turkeys are building their skeletons, muscle tissues, feathers, and body organisms at a rapid rate, all of which requires special kinds of food In definite proportions. Many of the ills of their turkeys which are so discouraging to turkey growers at this time of year are the direct result of . malnutrition, and can be corrected through a properly balanced ration If prompt action Is taken. Loose,' flabby crops, which often become troublesome, are the result of insufficient protein. Turkeys up to two months of age should have at least a 25 per cent protein ration. After this time the protein can be gradually reduced to 14 or 16 per cent at fattening time. If the proportion of total ash in the feed exceeds 7 or 8 per cent, there is great danger of the young poults developing leg deformities. At the first showing of leg trouble the per cent of ash in the ration should be looked Into and lowered If too high. Stuck-ueyes and nostrils, as well as puffy slnues, are often the result of Insufficient fresh green feed." Deformed breasts and back bones also are caused by this deficiency in vitamin A which can be obtained from green feed. Serious loss to the turkey farmer can result from the lack of green feed or a proper substitute. A properly balanced ration may cost more per pound than one which is thrown together without thought of the turks' needs. Since this Is the time when the foundation for the turkey crop is being laid. It is poor economy In the long ran to skimp on the principal means of building the flock. . p versity. He suggests the use of sand as a bedding material for truck and carlot shipments during the hot, summer months, and trucking to market at such times that the live stock will arrive during the early morning hours. The sand, well wet down, helps to avoid overheating and losses. Shipping losses during a year are estimated to amount to as much as Hammans says.

Mediums of Exchange in Periods of History Cattle were the first and most popular commodities of exchange, and still remain so In many parts of Africa and less civilized regions. Grain and sheep, salt and shells were all money In early times. Marco Polo, the great world traveler, noted that the Chinese monarch , had papyro or leather Imprinted money In all his provinces, equally acceptable to all subjects as exchange. Soon metals became the most convenient form of exchange. But copper bricks were nsed by the people who built the pyramids, while rings of copper and metal were preferred by the later Celts. Ring money" became quite common In Europe. Later, paper money was used, but at first the paper was nothing more than a receipt for the metal money which the bankers lent to one another. The receipt of paper money would pass from hand to hand for the metal money., which It represented.
