Importance* ef This Whoieoome Food Not Centrally Reoognlzed. Did It ever ooour to*vou to wonder how America and the rest of tho vorftd could got along without Indian eorn or rnalse? In one form or an* ether, this cereal which Is peculiar to America, supplies a large proportion of our food. It Is'one of the great stand-bys of the stockman and farmer tor feeding livestock. It yields oil and other products whloh are not only wholesome, nutritious foods for man and boast but Invaluable for various purposes In the arts and industries. Indian eorn Is the most productive crop of American farms. It Is a won* dor among plants for profitable culti¬ vation. Its annual yield In the Unit¬ ed States Is about thro* billion bush Corn Is one of the boons that this country gave the world *nd the Unit* ed States to by far the leader In rais¬ ing If It has never been found grow*' ing wild, which la quite an exception* si fact In botany. Burbank has tried to trace Its descent from a Central American grass but as yet has ad¬ duced no convincing evidence of its origin. It remains as always the samo beautiful* wholesome food for man and the animals most helpful In agri¬ culture. The settling and winning ol this continent rested largely' wltb ( corn. The ludiana who knew Its worth taught our pioneers to carry a pouch of parched corn as the best provision tor a long tramp In the wilderness. Boy members of corn clubs who have succeeded In Increasing the per- acre yield of corn several fold feel sorry for the position In which they have placed their aiders as corn-rain- ere. They have demonstrated how the country's production of three bil¬ lion bushels annually might be in- creased to 10 billions or more with¬ out much additional labor. There are some farmers who still plant corn and othtf things • \by the moon\ but th« boys' duos have never worried about the moon.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1922. NO. 34. WINT1R FOWL! LACK FERTILITY in fertility In eait? spring and winter la die to some cause is self*evid int. In nature warm weather Is the c losen time for repro¬ duction, and wit] i the bright days of May and June tie inhabitants of the mild their nests and young,. The domes- descended from the jungle, and there; Is a seeming possi¬ bility that inherent predisposition as* serts itself in out fowls of today, thus making the x warmer months the nat¬ ural time of high fertility. There oun hardly be any way to bring about a change by which the same fertility may be had In winter as la summer, other than to make for the fowls the same conditions , that the warmer months afford. To overcome the dif¬ ference In-temperature between sum* met-and ,winter the poultry home should face south-to southeast, wit !i an open front, t shine may strean dance of clean I Induce all the ei a roosting cloact lat the warm SIH- in. With an nbi: v ttor on tho floor 10 ercK'o possible, u. i n tho mir, >-.o a c. .-• tain may be dropped At <rtir.ht, o o should be able to get hlnh fortllLy ao far as the outside toniporaturo u> concerned. I ( Throughout tine late spring aid summer months nature provides va¬ rious seeds, bags, I worms and r.n abundance of green food;' In othjr words, everything that is required to nourish the parent j birds, that their offspring may be of the same vigorous constituents. Among the wild blidt Imbreedlng has no ierrors, an It is a ease of the survival of the fittest. No doubt the robin Is! the same active bird today that came down the a 304 from the time pf Noah. It stands to reason, then, to get a high fertility of eggs in early Spring and winter that will produce chicks with strong vig¬ orous constituents, that as nearly on possible the same food . elements should enter Into the winter rations as the fowls would get out on tho range through the summer. It is well to study the flocks as to Its requirements. For extreme weath¬ er, water with the chill taken off should be provided. Scatter various grains in the lftter, such as oats, wheat, kaflr corn, millet and sunflower seed, to Induce exercise and furnish a variety. Just an tl.e human family eats corn meal raunh In the winter time to keep up l.odlly heat, so the fowls should be fed wn.m mash the middle of the forenoon, ouo of the component parts being corn meal, and whole corn at night. To take the place of Vmgs that native provides during the summer necue a supply of green cut bone* from tikne to time and provide a high grade) of commercial beef scraps, frreen fo *d Is an absolute necessity for winter fertility—sprouted oats, mangold;) and cabbage are tfee easiest obtaina¬ ble and handled and as good as ary, and a forkful of clover supplied oc¬ casionally will add variety. M«IUG •he v inter conditions as nearly rs possible like nature furnlsheiUhrourii the v/nrmer months of the year, r <l InMcftd of high fertility beinff'A myth It will he a certainty. Provided a breeder has suitable nr- rangcr.icnts, and he should have'if !n the poultry business for a living, Into winter and early spring hatchM chickens are quite a source of profit nnd a start Is made and 1 and 2 pound chick* may be had before many are thinking about getting plaited. There are more chicks hatch¬ ed In May and June than any other rr.onttyB In the year. How often Is heard complaint that so and so didn't, get his chicks, out Vhtil late on ao*' tmnt of the wet spring T There h mdre than one /Advantage In early hatching. Many breeders are somo times compelled to hatch their own birds late on account of being swan r- CKI with egg orders during the n^ght of the hatching season. Why wouM It noi be better to get their own hatching done in January and Febru¬ ary, previous to the opening of the er/rc season, rather than after, In Juno and July? The profit to be derived from early-hatched youngsters i* quite an Item. If thoroughbred stock lrt rnlr*d there Is always a good do mand for early-matured cockerels anQ pullets for fall exhibition. The early batched specimens get fully matured and make the vigorous breeders lor the year following. Early-hatched cockerels reach I to S 1-1 pounds weight when the price Is around 25 to 80 cents per pound, and the surplus ones and culls will bring a sum. The equipment to be in position to take care of early-hatched chicks must be ample and carefully planned, for the chicks need far more care* In winter than later, when warm weather comes. If not fixed to rear early chicks or willing or able to got In shape, better let January and Feb¬ ruary hatching alone, and let other* do It. Improved Incubators, of which there are many, defy nature, and now one does not have to wait for the un¬ certainties and \whims of the hen. A well-ventilated house cellar or ln?u- bntor cellar built for the purpose Is Important for hatching stionf, vigor¬ ous chicks. Excellent results In disinfecting the Incubators have been obtuined with a weak solution of one of the stand* nrd disinfectants, and al*o clipping • the eggs prior to placing them in the ! Incubator In a like solution. I A good brooding system is absolute- i ly ntieMary for early chick*. Wheth* 1 er the broodert are Individual or a 1 pipe system used, It matters little. Just so they are run successfully. A 1 good brooder house presided over by a person with an ever-watchful eye, will ro a long way In making early* hatching A success. r NEW^ORK BRIEFS ESTABLISHED 1887. TERMS, $1.50 A YEAR.

While there is not the slightest dim¬ inution* In the announced determination of the British Government to uphold the neutrality of the Straits of the Dardanelles, a very significant .semi¬ official statement Issued seems to In¬ dicate some modification of the Brit¬ ish policy and its attitude toward Greece in Thrace, which It may 0 be assigned is the outcome of the Paris negotiations, in which Lord Curzon, the British foreign secretary, partici¬ pated.

Importers Withdraw Goods Worth' Millions to Escape Higher Rates. • Washington.—The Fordney-McCum- ber tariff bill, officially known at the Tariff act of 1922, was signed by Presi¬ dent Harding and went Into effect at midnight Thursday. As he signed the^-raeasure the Presi¬ dent turned to the members of Con¬ gress who witnessed the signature and pronounced the law's elastic provision that gives the executive power to raise and lower rates affected by changing valuations the ''greatest contribution toward progress In tariff making In tho nation's* history.\ The Treasury Department estimates that the annual revenue under the new duties will average between $800,000,- 000 and $400,000,000, or approximately $100,000,000 above the annual returns of the Underwood law, which now goes Into history. Treasury officials expect that the ad¬ ministrative features of the new law will require a large Increase 4n tho customs' personnel, notably at New York. Another expansion brought about by the act will be In the Tariff Commission, which is entrusted with carrying out the elastic provisions,: and at the next session of Congress a special appropriation will bo asked for this purpose. Collectors of customs of all ports have been notified that tho now law goes into effect tonight and to appraise tomorrow's Imports accordingly.

There also has been a large Increase In tariff revenue 'dur¬ ing the last few months of tariff de¬ bate, caused by Importers bringing In quantities of goods under the old du¬ ties. The bill was signed In the Presi¬ dent's office in the presence of Chair¬ man McCuraber of the Senate Finance Committee, Chairman Fordney of the House* Ways and Means Committe and several representatives and-other offi¬ cial!. As the group assembled around the President's, desk, Mr. Fordney said: \Mr. President, here ate some of the men who have come here to have the pleasure of seeing you put your sig¬ nature to the accomplishment of their efforts.\ Mr. Harding then signed the bill with a gold-mounted fountain'pen that was given to Representative Fordney. \Thank you for coming, gentlemen,\ said the President. \This law has long been In the making. I don't know how many are in accord with me, bat If we succeed In making effective the elastic provisions of the measure It will make the greatest contribution to tariff making in the nation's history.\ Besides Senator McCuraber and Mr. Fordney, those who witnessed the sig¬ nature of the tariff act Included: Rep¬ resentative Hawley, Oregon; Timber- lake, Colorado; Hadley, Washington; Watson, Pennsylvania; Toung, North Dakota and Oreen, Iowa, all members of the Ways and Means Committee, and Gtorge A.

Most eft the house votes to sustain the President were cast by members from eastern a.nd southern states, with western delegations voting almost sol¬ idly for the bill. There were two changes in the sen¬ ate, Senator Cameron, Republican, Art- Eona, who voted for the bonus origin* ally, voting to sustain the veto, while Senator McKlnley, Republican, Illinois, who, it was announced, was favorable to the bill on the first vote, was paired against it There was only brief consideration of the measure in the house. In call* Ing up the bill, Republican Leader Mondell said It bad been considered for a long time and that further do- bate was not likely to change a single vote and was unnecessary.
