success 
G UIDE chicks safely through 
the critical first five weeks—

sure road to poultry success. 
Life-Saver Steam-Cooked Chick 
Feed actually does save chicks’ 
lives. It’s a natural food—made 
from a combination of choice cut 
oatmeal, cracked com, cracked 
wheat, cracked kaffir-corn and 
cracked peas, with just the gran¬ 
ular firmness needed to develop 
baby chicks’ digestive systems. 
It’s more digestible, too, because 
it’s steam-cooked and dried by 
an exclusive H-O process that 
eliminates entirely fatal bowel 
disorders. It does not become 
sour or musty. 
Chicks fed on it from the first 
48 hours to five weeks grow 
faster, lay quicker and are ready 
for market sooner Mail the

3J years ago this Spring, one of our officials sold 
the first carload of farm wire fence ever shipped.

COOPERATIVE FARMERS, PADUCAH, KENTUCKY 
Farm Machinery Demon¬ 
strations for Jersey 
Growers 
B EGINNING April 21 and continuing 
through April 26, a series of six dem¬ 
onstrations will be held throughout 
New Jersey to give growers an oppor¬ 
tunity to see various kinds of farm equip¬ 
ments in operation. These demonstra¬ 
tions, being arranged by Professor C. H. 
Nissley, vegetable gardening expert of 
the New Jersey State College of Agri¬ 
culture, are in response to a vast number 
of inquiries that have come to the Vege¬ 
table Gardening Department both from 
growers and county agents in regard to 
new and labor-saving machinery and ma¬ 
terials which tend to lower the cost of pro¬ 
duction. In view of the difficulty that 
is experienced in trying to answer ques¬ 
tions on this subject intelligently, where 
the implements and materials cannot be 
seen, it was decided to hold these demon¬ 
strations and get the equipment to a 
central place where growers could see the 
various things actually operating under 
local conditions. 
Schedule of Meetings 
The demonstrations have been so lo¬ 
cated that no grower need travel more 
than 35 miles or 40 miles to attend at 
least one of them. The schedule is as 
follows: Monday, April 21, Atlantic 
County, at the farm of Horace Ireland 
of Linwood, about miles out of 
Somers Point on the main road to Pleas- 
a.ntville; Tuesday, April 22, Cumberland 
County, at “Central Farm” of May hew 
and Husted, just south of and adjoining 
Cedarville; Wednesday, April 23, Glou¬ 
cester County, at the farm of T. B. Thorn 
along the Glassboro Westfield Road, just 
west of Hurffsville; Thursday, April 24, 
Burlington Comity, on the farm of T. S. 
Borden, on the Burlington-Camden Pike, 
2^4 miles from Burlington; Friday, April 
25, Monmouth County, on the farm of 
J. S. Curtis, 2 miles from Keyport on 
the road to Middletown; Saturday, April 
26, Passaic County, on the farm of Henry 
Butt, at the corner of Van Houten and 
Grove Street, Richville. 
These demonstrations include garden¬ 
ing tractors, sprayers, dusters, seeders, 
cultivators, harrows, transplanters, onion 
set planters, irrigation equipment, har¬ 
vesting machinery, mechanical bunchers, 
etc. The demonstration will be conducted 
in the afternoon of each day continuing 
from one o'clock until six.

Farm Bills that Failed to Pass 
Jersey Legislature 
W. H. Bullock 
V ARIOUS agricultural measures fell by 
the wayside during the last session of 
the Legislature, although fortunately these 
for the most pact were not as important or 
demanded as insistently as those which were 
passed. A bill to preserve Standard Time 
and eliminate so-called Daylight Saving 
was presented. It failed to pass. 
Little success was accomplished this 
year on hunting and trespassing laws. 
Sentiment is quite united for a new tres¬ 
pass law in New Jersey which will have 
teeth—a measure similar to that passed 
three years ago by the New York Legis¬ 
lature. 
The question of the distribution of 
school funds is a matter which has been 
under consideration by the organized 
farm groups for several years. Senti¬ 
ment is growing in favor of the distri¬ 
bution of the school money on the basis 
of ratables. Fifteen of the twenty-one 
counties in the State would profit by 
such a change. A study by the New 
Jersey Federation of County Boards of 
Agriculture shows that one northern 
New Jersey county receives $1,000,000 
more in school funds from the State than 
it contributes, and that this loss is borne 
by rural as well as other urban counties. 
When sentiment crystalizes on this matter 
of school fund distribution, as it may by 
another year, the organized farm groups 
will unite upon it as a legislative platform.
