Photographer's “Look Pleasant."
Tl»e photographer was taking a pic

was some difficulty In getting the right

A Different Station.
Witty traffic cops they have In New
York, according to the Evening Sun. A
speeding motorist explained: “I am on

“No, you’re not,” said the cop, as he
aboard. “You are on your way
to see yourself In.”

And “Grandpa” is Mrs. Winter’s fa

state. He Is seventy-three years old
and his name is Dr. G. P. Gibson of
Redwood Falls. He served Uncle Sam
during the war at Fort Benjamin Har

And the “kids” are Mrs. Gibson's
two sons, who were under twenty-one
years when the United States entered
the war, but they enlisted, anyhow.
They are John and Leigh Winter.
“It is mighty proud I am to have
two sons members of the American Le

that I am eligible to be a member of
the American Legion Auxiliary,” Mrs.
Winter said. “It Is an organization,
the American Legion, that has been
found to stand for all that is worth
while In our country, and the Implaca

know that It always will be so.
“It was hard to give up my boys—
mighty hard. Aud, as every mother
does who went through that agony, I
pray that never again will mothers
have to give up their sons to war. The
American Legion and the women who
make up Its auxiliary are building
against war every day, all the time.
We are educating, Americanizing all
against future war aud tor permanent
peace.”

TURKEY RAISING MAY BE MADE
VERY PROFITABLE OCCUPATION
Driving a Flock es Turkeys to Market.
(Pr«pa.r«d by the United Statea Department
of Agriculture.)
Despite a steady increase in the
prices producers have received for tur
keys since 1915, production has stead
ily decreased, according to figures pub
lished by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. The average
prices received during the four months
October to January, 1915-16, was 15
cents a pound. The average price re
ceived during the corresponding period
in 1920-21, was 32 cents a pound. In
1900, the census figures showed 6,594,-
695 turkeys on farms In the United
States, while in 1910, there were only
3,688.708, and in 1920 there were 3,-
827,028.
Big Increase In Price.
During the past six years the price
of turkeys has increased to the pro
ducer more than 100 per cent, while
An Excellent Specimen.
during the past 20 years the number
of turkeys produced has decreased
about 50 per cent, the department
states.
It Is common knowledge that tur
keys are not easily handled, for by na
ture they are wanderers, and they usu
ally give considerable concern to those
whose duty it Is to keep them on the
home premises. The almost uncon
querable inclination of turkeys to
wander into the fields of neigh
bors has often caused strained
feelings, and- many owners of flocks
have abandoned the business of
raising turkeys on that account. Tur
keys are also seriously afflicted by a
PEAS WELL ADAPTED
FOR MANY SECTIONS
Too Much Space Required for
Growing in Garden.
Crop Will Thrive on Almost Any Good
Garden Soil and Require Only
Moderate Amount of Fertilizer
—Alaska Seed Best.
(Prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Peas, sometimes spoken of as Eng
lish peas, are adapted for growing
from the Gulf of Mexico to Canada,
nnd from Maine to California, wdth
the exception of a few local sections
where they do not thrive. Peas re
quire too much space for growing ex
tensively In the small garden, say spe
cialists of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, but are especially
adapted to the farm garden.
In Florida and certain of the gulf
coast regions the seed is planted in
the fall and the peas gathered during
the first days of spring. Farther north
the seed Is planted In February nnd
March and the peas ready for use in
May and June. Going still farther
Intn New England and the northwest
they are planted In April and ready
for use in July or August, all depend
ent, however, upon the locality. In the
southern district, where the ground
rarely ever freezes, the <seeds are
planted about inches deep, but far
ther north where late freezes are
liable to form a heavy crust over the
ground the seed should be covered
three to four Inches In light sandy
soils but not quite so deep In heavier
or clay soils.
Alaska or Earliest of All Is consid
ered one of the best of the early va
rieties and easy to grow. One pint of
seed of the Alaska will plant about
100 feet of row, and while it Is de
sirable to have brush dr wire netting
for them to climb on, they may be
grown without any support whatever.
Gradus, Thomas Laxton, American
Wonder, Sutton’s Excelsior nnd Lax
ton Inn are among the best early peas.
Telephone and Mammoth podded sugar
lire among the best late sorts. All of
the later varieties need a trellis or
brush to climb upon.
disease known as blackhead which ha?
caused heavy losses, and In some In
stances the business has been given up
entirely for this reason. These causes
of loss together with the frequent rav
ages of wild animals including dogs
and rats, have all tended to discourage
development of the industry.
The raising of turkeys may be a
very profitable occupation where there
Is an abundance of range, ample feed,
and reasonable freedom from preying
animals, the department states. Even
for those who have a limited range
there are opportunities for raising a
few turkeys each year If proper time
and attention are devoted to If. The
department points out, however, the
desirability of those who enter the
business to study it thoroughly in all
its features.
Difficult to Ship Aflve.
It is very difficult to ship turkeys
alive to market since the shrinkage Is
very heavy. Ordinarily turkeys do not
eat very much when confined, and
therefore they are usually killed and
dressed loca’.ly and then shipped to
market, packed in barrels or boxes.
Turkeys, like chickens, may be either
scalded or dry picked, but the dry
picked birds are preferred in most
markets because they keep better, and
there are no losses of their substance
by reason of a great deal of the soluble
substance being removed by soaking
In water or by packing in Ice. There
are conditions, of course, where there
Is no alternative but to pack the birds
in ice and ship them in bar
rels. The objection to scalded-dressed
birds does not obtain to the same ex
tent where the birds are dressed and
sold immediately to the consumer.
Turkeys mature and fieshen very
much better in the fall when the at
mosphere Is crisp and fairly cold, such
as prevails for some weeks preceding
the holiday season. During this sea
son the birds are in greatest demand,
although the cold storage product may
be had at all seasons. Warm weather
during the week preceding the holi
days has a marked effect on demand,
and, other conditions being equal, the
quality of dressed turkeys for the hol
iday market may be predicted to a
great degree by weather conditions
during the fall season.
DAIRYING GOOD STABILIZER
Provides Something for Farmer to Sell
at Good Prices When Other
Crops Fail.
Dairy farming should not suppiCTAt
grain, fruit or a general live stock
farming, but rather supplement them.
Dairying will prevent some of the ups
and downs In agriculture by acting
as a stabilizer and providing some
thing to sell at good prices when other
crops fall.
The dairy business Is not a gec-rtch
qulck business, but it is a safe and
sane business; a system of farming
that builds up attractive homes, that
creates more prosperity and supports
more people than any other known
form of agriculture.
SUCCESS WITH SHEEP FLOCK
It Is Necessary to Use Good Purebred
Rams and Young Ewes Are Most
Desirable.
In building up a flock of sheep, It
Is necessary to remember to do these
things: 1. Use good purebred rams.
2. Select young ewes. Yearlings, two
year-olds, or perhaps, three-year-olds
are far more desirable for starting a
flock than older ones. 3. Discard
broken-mouthed ewes and ewes with
bad udders. 4. Choose ewes having
good size, desirable forms and dense
fleeces, the first year because a sheep
makes its greatest growth during this
period. 0. Give the flock good care
throughout the entire year.
RAISING SCRUB LIVE STOCK
Unnecessary Waste of Time and Feed,
Declares Doctor Mohler, Chief
of Animal Bureau.
“There is Increasing evidence,” de
clares Dr. J. R. Mohler, chief of the
bureau of animal industry of the
United States Department of Agricul
ture, “that raising scrub live stock
Is an unnecessary waste of time and
feed. Any live stock owner can im
prove the quality of his herds and
flocks by the better-sires route. Pure
bred sires permit the raising of grades,
crossbreds, or purebreds—whichever is
preferred—depending on the kind of
females used.”
