. & < . URGE FARMERS KEEP A WATCH | ON SEED CORN The shortage in the feed crop pro duction this year is not as serious as might first appear, because of the heavyy carryover from last year's bumper crops, particularly corn and oats, tie Institute states. Then, too, the smaller number of livestock is also a big factor. The horse and mule pop-- ulation is more than 10 per tent under the fiveyear average and still decreas ing: the beef and dairy cattle are 8 percent under, and the hog population about 12 per cent below the average. This means that the lowered feed crop production this year will be balanced PRIVATE AND CLASS LEssoNs AT RESIDENCE * 125 LINCOLN AVENUE LIBERTYVILLE TELEPHONE s31.W These are the conclusions of the Blue Valley Creamery Institute in a review of the feed situation. Last year's crop production was heavy and a total of over 225 millions of tons of feed w&re produced. This year condi-- tions have not been so favorable, and the prospects are for a total feed pro-- duction of 213,000,000 tons, 5.3 percent below last year's production, and about 6 percent under the average for ¥tie past five years. Both concentrates and roughages are affected by this drop, but the former is the more vital, including as it does corn, which is by far the most important feed crop pro-- "Any arrangement the farmer can make for drying the seed corn is a'!! right, providing there is plenty of ventilation. Corn tress, wire racks, bag strings to tie the ears, or any other method usable and expedient will do. Care should be taken, ho#%-- ever, that the moisture laden ears do not -- touch. Dryimz corn on porches, sides of buildings or on the windmill should be avoided, as this results in lowered gerMination sext spring because of freezing." There will be no feed surplus this year. The production of feed grains and hay in 1926 was less bountiful than in 1925, but with tae proper --dis-- tribution, there will be enough to go around. Short Feed Crop Makes Good Feeding Essential meed corn contains 25 to 35 per cent moisture, and this moisture content must be reduced to about 12 to 15 pes rent if the corn is to pass throu=h the vingr without losing the vital-- ity of the seed. Corn properiy dried will not 'beg greatly damaged by freezing, so that it is very important that immediately after picking, the corn be placed where it will receive free ventilation in "~order to dry it rapidiy. This done, the cornu should be stored where it will not be ox-- posed to extreme cold. "Good seed corn next spring will de-- pend on artificial heat and ventila-- tion that is given it at this time of the year," the foundation states.

It has taken many years of »a tient work by experts to develop the gorgeous autumn flower from its ori-- gin in the Chinese daisy. (The mums sent out by the Kohouts are prized as the most beautiful on the market. Witness the annual show of the Flor-- ists' Association, recently : held in Joliet. Taere were eight entries, in-- two varieties of roses and six varieties of chrysanthemums, that represented The Kohout Flower Growers, Inc., and and Libertyville among the thousands of exhibits and entries which came from all over the state. When the Jjudging <was done, there were eigat first prizes on the Kohout entries, to broadcast Libertyville to the world. This is the answer to the query which one entertains about the reason for business coming to this successful con-- cern from all corners of the nation. Just why this demand for florist's products comes from far ang near is is easily explained in a sentence or two. Joseph Kohout whose porperty these _ long _ houses, with their twinkling panes are, believes that when anything is started it should be finisaed promptly and done well. This congenial florist, who is now a trustee on the Board of Directors of the I!li-- nois State Florist Association, and who has served as president of the same society. knows all about the growing of flowers and the manage ment of greenbhouses--and then some. This enterprising florist concern, known as the Kohout Flower Growers, Inc., located half way between Liber tyville and Rondout, on the paved rgd and the Chicago Norti Shore and Mil waukee electric line, daily sends forth to all parts of the country--yes, even to Florida, Maine and California--their beautiful rokes, carnations and chrys-- anthemums that not --only bring joy to the heart on festivals and holidays, but also brigs satisfaction when wreaths are the aporopriate gifts on more solemn occasions. Nestling on the landscape are six long, commodious greenhouses, whose g.rining panes send back a twinkle to the cold November sun. From this midst rises a gigantic brick smoke stack, --sending forth volumes of ex-- halation that speaks of the industry going on day and night At present the ratio between faed costs and livestock prices makes feed operations profitable, and it is not ex-- pected that prices will advance suffi-- ciently to eliminate the margin of pro-- fits in converting feed into meat and animal products. Howeevwr, with clos er adjustment of feed supply to de-- mand, it is probable that the general trend of the feed market will be ir-- regularly upward. . mt Lake County Roses Shipped to All States _ _ For the most economical production of butterfat, butter, eggs and other farm products, the matter of proper feeding is the most important factor. Therefore with no oversupply of grain feeds on farms at this time, it will pay big to give special attention to feed-- ing well and 'without waste. Dairy cows will maintain their body weight and good health on a liberal supply of good alfalfa hay and corn silage, all ta2ey will cean up at each feeding. For milk production, they need additional feed in the form of a well--balanced grain mixture, fed at the rate of one pound to every three or four pounds of milk produced. Corn, of course, is the cheapest and most efficient hog feed in midwest states. When it is supplemented with skimmilk, an ideal feed for hogs is made, A good dry mash and skimmilk with the regular scratch grains for poultry is tae secret of large and most economical egg pro-- duction in winter. stock and will not necessitate duced feeding. by the reduction in the number of live-- ' F.
