DRAKE County Agricultural: Agent Club Members Make Survey Dairy Members of the Flying Far­ mers 4-H club of Miami township are making a survey of dairy farms to learn the practices being followed in producing clean milk. The results of their findings will be used as a basis for a demonstration on producing clean milk which will be given a t the Quality Cream meetings a t Xenia, May 6 and a t Jamestown May 7. The club has a membership of 14 and is under the leadership of Q. H. Butts and Robert Horney. All of the members carry live­ stock projects with dairy pre­ dominating. Detrick To Address Forum “The Cave Man and His Chil­ dren" will be the subject of a lecture to be given by Guy De- trick, instructor in,social science of the IJatli township schools a t the Farm Forum. Monday evening April 28. The Forum will meet a t Ceyers banquet room with dinner a t 7:00 o’clock. The Bath township committee will be in charge of the program. Committee members are: R. E, Crone, chairman, Harry Troll- inger, Charles Armstrong, Ed. Wilson, and Howard Young. The Bath township Grange quartette will furnish the musical portion of the program. Barberry Survey Underway Ralph Ferguson of Sugarcreek township is employed by the U. S. department of agriculture in checking previous barberry loca­ tions in Greene county. In addi­ tion to checking previous location of barberry bushes, strip scout­ ing is being conducted for a safe distance around the old property to determine if the seed has pro­ duced new bushes. The reason for eradicating of the common barberry bushes is that they are the host plant for the black stem rust of wheat. This disease formerly was one of the most destructive wheat pests. The last survey of barberry bushes was made in 1940. II & O Conservation Contest The B & O railroad has announ­ ced a conservation contest to en­ courage farmers to conserve soil and all natural resources on their farms. The closing dates for en­ tries is October 1st and, awards are limited to farmers with dis­ trict farm conservation plans. Awards of saving bonds and cash will be made on the basis of the most progress made dur­ ing the past year in soil, water and forest conservation. Breeding Assn. Buys Bull The Central Ohio* Breeding as­ sociation recently bought the Guernsey bull Biltmore Royal Poet, 408731 from Biltmore farms in North Carolina. He is a Four Star Bull with 24 credits and classified very good. His first 10 unselected daugh­ ters averaged 515 pounds butter- fat. A comparison between his daughters and his dams showed an average increase of 1039 pounds of milk and 104 pounds of butterfat. The association serves more than 250 dairy herds in Greene county with artificial breeding service. There are 30 herd sires at the bull farm of the Guernsey, Jersey, Holstein, and Brown Swiss breeds, all with outstand­ ing production records. A Clean, Farm Is A Safe Farm This is the season for giving the farm and home the spring clean-up. Spring dean-up on the farm is like giving the farm a new suit of clothes or a new dress. It is a spring tonic. A check up on debris accumulation will ex­ pose many unsighty places that are also accident and fire hazards on the farm. .Housecleaning is a universal practice. Why not include the entire farmstead. Scrap iron is badly needed by the steel indus­ try. There is a lot of displaced junk in most every bam, shed and out buildings. A spring clcan-up will mean a tidy, attractive, and safe farm. Lower Prices For Livestock Predicted Lower prices for meat animals by next fall and a greater than seasonal decline in livestock prices during the last three months of 1947 are foreseen by economists of Ohio State univer­ sity. They base their estimate upon lower purchasing power of wage earners and upon the pro­ bably end of government buying. f We Fay $5.00 for HORSES $3.00 for COWS According to size and condition Small animals removed promptly FARM BUREAU CO-OP ASSN. call collect Xenia 755 Dayton KEnmore 5742 pear on the market in numbers late in May and June so an eas­ ing off of prices for quality cat­ tle may occur then. The small 1946 pig crop and%a short supply of pork in storage are holding up the hog prices; In­ creasing numbers of fall pigs coming to market and a drop in beef prices will tend to pull hog prices down. Hog prices for the first half of 1947 are expected to average well above for the first six months of anyother year on record. to 10 Weeks o f age w ithout re­ ducing the rate o f grow th. Ordinarily, 100 chicks will con­ sume about 10 pounds of feed during the first week, 20 pounds by the end of the second and 30 pounds by the end of the third. Then consumption increases rap­ idly until 100 chicks will have consumed approximately 3 6 0 pounds of feed a t the end of eight weeks. Heavy breeds such as Barred Rocks, Hampshires, Rhode Island Reds, and cross­ breeds eat more feed and grow faster than Leghorns after the fifth week. The GI’s wouldn’t be so dis­ satisfied with their lot if they only had a house on it. " ..... *” CLOSING OUT Sale! We are closing out our stock of KEMTONE at the old price of 2.98 CAL.

The saftey council is commended for it, but they do need a little money to work with. We had a good laugh all to our- „ selves Monday morning in Xenia. Walking along Main street in front of a filling station, we had to wait for a big truck doing some backing. On the side of the cab of the truck it said “Gulf” but it was a Shell station. Now who’s gas is wh6’s. The state highway department didn’t get around to it too soon, did they ? Yes, they patched Xenia avenue, South Main street, as well as US 42 and SR 72. The holes had got so bad on Xenia avenue that the other night one of those empty Chevy transports head Norwoodsward hit one of the rough s^ots and i t sounded like it had h it one of the parked ears.
