Iowa Farmer Experience Diffi culty in Getting Carpenters. Groups Co-opsrit In Erecting Strue tures Under Supervision of County Agent and Farm Building Export of Stat. (Prepared by th. United Btales Depart ment of Agriculture.) A modern counterpart of the old fashioned barn raising, with certalu noteworthy features added in the form of assistance by state authorities has appeared In Marshall county. luwa, where the farmers have bad great diffi culty In securing carpenters to erect farm buildings. The plan being worked out Is for groups of furmers to co operate In erecting their structures under the direction of the county agent and the farm building experts of the agricultural extension depart ment of Iowa State Agricultural col lege. Poultry houses, because of their simplicity, are being tried first A feature of the movement which is looked on as giving particular prom ise Is the fact that the agricultural ex tension department furnishes plans for the buildings so that the co-operating builders may have explicit directions for cutting materials and erecting the structures. The first poultry houses will be built under .extension supervi sion, but after that the farmers are expected to duplicate the work on other farms. In case this experiment proves satisfactory the same principle may be applied to more pretentious building enterprise. MAKE PROPER STUDY OF RABBIT PROBLEM Attractive Possibilities Are Quite Often Misleading. Before Starting on Enterprise It It Advisable to Consider How Ani mals Can Be Disposed of to Best Advantage. (Prepared by the United 8tatei Depart ment of Agriculture.) The attractive, not to say startling, mathematical calculations which are sometimes made In estimating breeding possibilities of rabbits not Infrequently have led persons to engage in raooit raising wlthont proper study of the problem. Before starting on this en terprise, It Is advisable also for one to consider well hnw such rabbits as can be raised may be disposed of. In the vicinity of towns where there are restaurants, hotels and boarding houses, arrangements can usually be made to furnish market men or land lords a regular number of rabbits weekly. But one should not begin rais ing rabbits on a large icale In a lo cality where people are nnaccustomed to eating them. No breeder can ex pect to make a profit until he has de veloped a market. He can demonstrate the desirability of the meat of young rabbits to his neighbors and sometimes to other agencies. If a breeder Is not able to carry out an educational cam paign singly, he should endeavor to or ganize with others In such an under taking.

Those born of registered parents are prefern-d and are spoken of as "pedigreed." They can be registered If the owner so de sires. The cost of keeping pulireed or registered stock le no more than that of ordinary stock and the returns are considerably greater. Such stock can usually be disposed of by adver tising In poultry and ' pet journals, If there Is not sufficient home demand. Rabbits for meat are sold at greater profit when from two to four months of age. Ordinarily they ore shipped to market alive In crates, like poultry. feOENEBAL Permanent pastures produce pros perous people. e Heavy wire costs more now but less in the long run. DOUBLE POPULATION OF OREGON FARMERS STATE CHAMBER PLAN Oregon now has 5,000,000 acres of land under cultivation. In 1919 the agricultural crop was valued at (206,000,000.00. By honest advertising the Ore gon State Chamber of Commerce can double the agricultural acre age In three years. This would add another 1206.000,000.00 to the agricultural revenue of the Slate, using last year's figures as a basis of figuring. 3N PRINCIPLE OF B00MERAK3 Airplane Constructed Along Same Linee as the Fi.meue Weapon of Australian Buihmen. Although an auoicaly to go to the primitive savages of Australia fur points on an airplane, that wit. Just what was done In the development of Hying in the ulr by human. The fundamental principle of the plane Is both old and simple, having been dis covered by the bushmen of the antip odes and embodied by them In the boomerang, which by meeting In Its flight the air at a slight angle got a "lift.- The trajectory of the boomerang may be In part horizontal or may even rise as a result of this lift.

Investigation will show little differ ence between the wing section of the modern airplane and a cross section of a boomerang made by the hushrnen or whittled hy a New York boy after he had visited the circus and had wit nessed the stunts of the boomerang throwers. The resemblance of the boomerang's cross section Is closer to a propeller section of an airplane, as a boomerang la a sort of cross between an airplane wing and a propeller.
