THE COMING YEAR ,
The fact that hope springs eternal'
in the' heart and that there is ever
a rainbow of " promise in the distant
is something" for "which we all can
give thanks.
It is because' of' this hope and be
cause of this rainbow that we wel
come the dawning of the New Year in
happy anticipation. The past is over
and done with; but the future,' with
all its happy possibilities, is our own
rich possession.- The New Year in
cludes another spring season and oth
er harvest days. Its panorama lies
invitingly before us and it is rich in
promise. It affords new opportunity
for optimistic and zestful existence,
for the enjoyment of things hoped for
but not obtained during the .closing
year. And thus we bid the Old Year
goodbye without sorrow, and welcome
the New Year with smiling eyes.
If we have learned from past ex
perience to rectify the mistakes of
earlier days, the New Year will af
ford us that opportunity. Humanity
makes many mistakes and all of us
are prone to error. Not wilfully so,
but naturally. Experience is the
great teacher in all such cases, be it
in the conduct of the ordinary affairs
of life or in our business or farm
operations. We are ever learning
fi-om day to day and from season to
season, also from year to year, as we
look back and compare. If. from neg
lect, we have suffered loss of crops
and income, we, as farmers, can in
sure that this will not occur again
because we have learned a needed
lesson.
An old hymn writer has told us
that: "New times, new seasons and
new joys, doth a new song require.
We may all sing a new song of hope
at Christmas, during holiday week.

-The Grain Growers.
Cliff Gregory, editor of the Prairie
Farmer, designates the now defunct
Grain Growers, Inc., as "that trouble
some child of the American farm bu
reau federation" and says that its dis
position "is- a problem of great con
cern to the middle west. It is hio
opinion that "the state federations
of " the corn belt have a defi
nate obligation to set up a grain mar
keting agency for their members."
Speaking of the flood of money which
was poured into the coffers of that
concern within the past year he
points out that $78,556.70 came from
the three states of Indiana, Illinois
and Iowa. Whether that sum em
braces only the membership fees, or
also includes the loans from the
states named, Mr. Gregory does nor
state. From our information as to
the amounts actually loaned by the
three state farm bureaus it would not
surprise us if the sum named con
sists of the loans made by these state
bodies, independent of membership
fees from individuals. It is possible,
however, that these loans were re
duced by partial payments to the var
ious states while the canvass was
actively-on. A list of 10.000 members
in any single state insures an income
of $100,000 in dues from that state,
aside from any borrowings, as the fee
was $10 on joining. This was a sinele
ana not an annual expense, beinsr
practically a life membership in the
organization.
Mr. Gregory sums up in the state
ment that while the convention "did
not. discuss this question and took no
action on.it the middle west fels,
that in the . emergency, it has the
right to ask that the American farm
bureau budget provide a substantia!
sum to put tho grain growers sales
aeency on its feet." He further states
that such a request was presented
to the executive committee at the
convention. -
- Winter Shipping Fever.
As many feeders have experienced,
cattle and sheep are liable to contract
a disease in cold weather, known aa
stockyards or shipping fever. The
losses on this account are most heav
ily felt by those- who buy stockers
and feeders, althoufh milking cow?
and sheep also may become infected.
The disease is a poisoning of the blood
wherefore it often runs but a short
course and quickly becomes fatal.
The disease is technically known a.s
hemorrhagic septicemia, and those in-!
terested can obtain a free bulletin
on the. subject by writing to the de
partment of agriculture, at Washing
ton. .. While the bureau of animal industry
is endeavoring in every way possible
to combat the spread of this disease,
it sometimes happens that a shipment
of apparently healthy cattle or sheep
shortly after arrival in a feed lot, will
develop symptoms that will cause the
owner to believe that the animals are
afflicted with pneumonia.
Teh affected animals as a rule refuse
feed. There is quite often difficulty in
breathing and coughing may occur.
There may be discharge from the nos
trils and strings of mucous may hang
from the mouth. The animals lose
flesh very rapidly, their abdomens be
coming puffed up and the eyes sunken.
Disinfection of stockyards which
may be effectivetempoiarily can not be
fore, as an effective means of control
ped to farms for feeding. The vacci
nation of susceptible animals from
stockyards has been suggested, there
relied upon to protect the animals ship
ling the disease. These vaccinations
should be made by a veterinarian and!
only fresh, tested vaccines or bacter
ids should be used. Such cattle and
sheep should not be allowed to mingle
with other animals on the farm until
30 days have elapsed.
A Hard Luck Story.
A brief tale of loss in shipping hay is
going the rounds of the farm press, as
follows.: "A farmer at Iowa City, la.,
shipped a car of hay to St. Louis. He
got $82.61 for it. The freight and oth
er charges totalled $92.13." The kind
of hay or the number of tons in the car
is not given, nor is there mention of
the price paid per ton. But aside from
all this the moral seems to be that St.
Louis is not a profitable market for
hay grown around Iowa City, and that
the farmer who feeds his hay, or sells
it to his neighbors, will be best off.
According to John W. Coverdale, of
Iowa, general secretary of the Amer
ican farm bureau federation: "The far-

to his neighbor. Together we win is
our watchword today." He then goes
on to say that:
. "The object of the farm bureau is to
create a county-wide organization to
advance and improve the agriculture
of the county, to co-operate with the
state colleges of agriculture and the
United States department of agricul
ture in the employment .of a county
agent; to develop a definite - program
of work that will bring to the county
better economic, social and education

more profitable and country life more.
attractive." Mr. Coverdale then ex
pands his idea to cover the state and
then- "the nation, to the good of the
whole country.
Mice Kill Trees.
"There are men who fear mice,
Fruit growers have good cause to,"
so extension specialists in orchard
growing tell us. These and other ro
dents sometimes gnaw and girdle
trees, after the snow has fallen, andj
how to prevent, the killing of fine
trees, and all fruit trees, is the prob
lem of the fruit man. One authority
advises as follows:
"To hoe away weed and , rubbish

the grain stand overnight to absorb
the poison. Do not use more than a
teaspoonful of bait in one place. The
poison, of course, must be handled
with the utmost care, so that children
