COUNTY AGENT NEWS
SEED CORN WARNING
A great deal of the seed corn this
year is of a low germination test.
Because of th e immaturity of corn
last year all corn went into the winter
with a high moisture content. The
germ of corn is easily affected by
cold weatheir if the moisture content
is high.
In ordinary years a January germ
ination test is all right but this year
in nearly all cases a January test
does not mean very much. Most of
the corn this year seemed to test
good in January but March and April
tests of this same corn shows that
the percentage of kernels germinating
have been reduced in most cases
down to 70 per cent and as low as
zero. This has been proven in many
instances by tests made in this office,
and also throughout the state and
other corn growing states. So, in
buying seed corn this year it is best
to insist at least on a late February
test, and the later the better. Any
one who has raised his own seed com
ought to retest the seed com if he
has not made any test since this win
ter.
GOPHER POISONING
The best time to poison gophers is
in the early spring before there is
any vegetation and before the go
phers have their young. By poison
ing at this time they will eat the
poison better, and there are, of
course, less gophers to poison at this
time of the years. This seems to be
realized more and mor e every year.
A large amount of poison has been
used each year for the past two
years; but this year there seems to
be a cleanup campaign. Many times
more poisoa has been used up to the
present time this year than any pre
vious year.
It is unfortunate that the State
and Federal Government do not fur
nish poison for their lands. This
makes it a heavy burden for those
who live adjoining such lands.
But now- is the time to poison.
County poison can be had at the same
places as in previous years, in the
different towns, and at the County
Agent's office at Plentjrwood.
By continued poisoning for a few
years the gophers will be a negligible
quantity. •

BOYS' AND GIRLS' CLUB WORK,
Boys' and Girls' Clubs have been
organized at Redstone, Dagmar, Ro
serve, Medicine Lake and Outlook,
Clubs will be organized in other corn
munities soon,
Club work is on a
very solid foundation in the county
and the boys and girls are anxious to
take part. The members are plan
ning to exhibit their products at the
fairs in the fall. There will be again
a Club Camp at Brush I^ake in July.
The local clubs hold regular meetings
throughout the year which are en
joyed very much by the members.
The projects taken up by the mem
bers are pig raising, gardening, corn,
potatoes, beef, dairy, poultry,
ning, sewing and food clubs,
year Sheridan County had 159 club
members and there will undoubtedly
be at least that many this year.
By writing the County Agent of
fice, Plentywood, you will gladly be
furnished any information you may
wish on club work.

Moore.—Farmers who hold claims
against the Moore Farmers' elevator
which failed December 13, 1922, are
being mailed the amounts due them
by the division of grain standards of
the state department of agriculture,
This is. the culmination of litigation
in which the state was successful.
When the elevator failed, the state
department seized grain in transit
ami in the elevator worth $13,392.47.
In April, 1923, a 5o per cent payment
on storage tickets was made. The
company's beard was called, but the
elevator denied liability on $4,862:61
of scale tickets outstanding at the
time of th% failure.
In its suit on the bond the state
recovered $11,355.50.

LOW WAGES BUT UGH PROFITS
By Leland OWe
(Federated Press Industrial Editor.)
Cash dividends totaling 647 per
cent in 10 years is the record achiev
ed by Utah Copper Company with its
1924 report. How did it do it?
Ask the mine, mill and smelter
workers who are sweating for wages
less than 50 per cent above 1914 in
the face of a cost of living which has
increased more than 70 per cent. At
times during the 10 years their wages
represented only about one-fifth of the
price paid by consumers while the
owners were taking one-half in rents,
royalties and profits,
For 1924 Utah reports a profit of
$9,090,109 giving common stockhold
ers a return of 64.4 per cent on their
investment. This is just one of the
generous profits for the owners of in
dustry reported recently in the finan
cial news. Among them:
National Tea Co., known to most
housewives, turns in the highest profit
in its history. A net profit of $1,472,
993 after all deductions means $27i66
a share on the no-par common stock,
But as each no-par share stands for
an investment of about $20 this profit
is really a return of 138 per cent for
a single year's business. After gen
erous dividends this company retains
undivided profits more
times the common stock.
American Radiator Co., which takes
its toll on a large part of the coun
try's building, reports a 1924 profit
of $11,253,728 after all taxes and in
terest charges have been paid. This
than 51-2
means more than 34 per cent on the
present par value of the common

stock. But within less than 10 years
there have been three 50 per cent
stock dividends increasing the stock
holders' investment by nearly 240 per
cent without their risking an addition
al cent in the business. So the 1924
earnings mean a return of about 115
per cent. One reason why the cost of
building is still high.
Otis Elevator Co. is another con
cern which has helped jack up the
cost of building. Its 1924 profit of
$4,161,510 means over 23 per cent on
the common stock and if recent stock
dividends are taken into account it
appears that stockholders have a
profit of over 38 per cent.
Fleischmann Co., with its toll on a
largq part of the country's bi-ead
•stulf*; shows net income after taxes
and interest charges amounting to
$9,843,233. This is a return of about
29 per cent for the owners of common
stock.
North American Co., holding com
pany owning public utilities serving
over 7,000,000 customers, reported a
profit of $10,582,764 equivalent to 31
V-i per cent on the stockholders invest
ment.
But for return on investment the
Orpheum Circuit Gorp. is in a class
by itself. The 1924 net income of $2,
987,314 means a return of $4.29 on
each $1 invested by common stock
holders or 429 per cent. Cash divi
dends are running at the annual rate
of 150 per cent. Evidently amuse
ment is one of the aspects of life
which communities could provide
much more reasonably on a co-opera
tive basis.
