Putting all of your eggs In one
basket 1b not always a safe proposi
tion, If the experience of Thurston
county farmers laBt year is an index
of good farm practice. Their exper
ience in 1914 and 1915 indicates that
diversified farming is a form of Insur
ance against possible heavy losses.
Probably no county in the state
depends so exclusively on one crop,
65 per cent of the crop area being
devoed to corn. The summer of
1914 was a good one for corn and
the average, labor income was high,
being $1448. The following year,
tho favorable for most crops,, was not
a good cam season, uotn yieia
and quality were poor, causing the
labor income to drop to an average
of $99 per farm. These experiences
show that diversity of crops, or mix
ed farming. Insures against heavy
Ions by distributing risk among sev
eral crop.
Diversity also has the advantages
of utilizing labor at all seasons and
of providing receipts at more fre
quent intervals.

the board of regents, B. H. Rawl,

SELL OR FEED?
Will It pay me to sell my cattle on
the open market now, tho they are
In a half-fat condition, or should I
continue to feed them high-priced
feed and expect the market to pay
me back? '
This question is typical of many
letters received by the animal hus
bandry department of the University
of Nebraska. While It 1s true that
It never pays to feed a fat animal, it
is not profitable to sacrifice half-fat
animals. It is better to continue to
feed them high-priced feed until they
kill well. Many farmers are now
accepting relatively low prices for
half-fat animals because they have a
low dressing per cent.
Judging by present conditions,
there is going to be shortage of live1
stock and a very strong demand.
This is Indicated by the manner in
which buyers have consumed the
large offerings at the markets. Kill
ers are taking many animals which
in any other year might be going
back to the country for further feeding.

Danger Signal
If the fire bell should ring would
you run and stop it or go and help to
put out the fire? It is much the
same way witn a cougn. A cougb
is a danger signal as much as a fire
bell. You should no more try to
suppress if than to stop a fire bell
when It is ringing, but should cure
the disease that causes the cough
ing. This can nearly akways be
done by taking Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. Many have used It with
the most beneficial results. It is
especially valuable for the persistent
cougb that so often rollows a bad
cold or an attack of the grip. Mrs.
Thomas Beechlng, Andrews. Ind.,
writes: "During the winter my hus
band takes cold easily and coughs
and coughs. Chamberlains Cougb
Remedy la the best medicine for
