The C ooperative ¡d eal
of ECONOMIC DEMOCRACY is growing and will grow with the
years. Thinking people realize that the need for Economic De
mocracy is as great as the need for Political Democracy. In order
to be greatly successful the two must go together. To be effective
in furthering man’s pursuit of life, liberty and happiness, and in
securing man’s unalienable rights we must ever* strive for a larg
er attainment toward Economic Democracy as well as cherish and
guard our political democratic processes and rights.
Consumer cooperatives especially are a practical application of
real Democratic and Christian principles to the business of distri
buting goods and services.

COOPERATIVE
GARDEN CLUB
CHATS
By Mrs. Thomas O'Grady
A garden friend recently wrote
that each month she has made a stu
dy of one flower and has learned to
know that flower. She studies its
cultural needs, the different varie
ties, colors and its standard of per
fection. She reads all she can find
in magazines and garden books. At
the end of the month she has made
this plant a real part of her garden
vocabulary. This seems to us to be
a very practical method and one
which this club might follow with
good results.

It is very difficult this warm
weather to keep cut flowers but if a
few simple rules are followed they
will keep much better. An article in
“Your Garden and Home” gives the
following advise: “It is essential not
to gather the flowers in the hot sun.
Gather in the cool of the evening and
have a pail of water on the garden
path and as you gather your blooms,
hurry each cut stem deep into it and
carry the pail back to the house and
to darkness. There should be no
pause between the cutting and the
drink. In the case of Oriental pop
pies, dahlias, zinnias, hollyhocks or
other flowers having coarse heavy
stems, char the ends of the stalks
with the flame from a candle or the
gas burner before putting them in
the water. Never place flowers in
a draft or where the sun can shine
upon them.”

and will be mounted on special Ford
school bus chassis equipped with 95
h. p. Mercury dry sleeve motors.
These two units will be driven out
from Elyria, Ohio. Rohrman was
awarded the business on a competi

INSULATED BARN
MAY BE DRAFTY
IN HERM ISTON
By E. R. GROSS
Although insulated animal shel
ters represent a great improvement
over old-time, drafty farm structures,
insulated structures may develop
moisture conditions more prominent
than those in a leaky building. For
this reason, farmers are urged to
study the ventilation problems in
their barns and shelters before in
sulating them.
The day will undoubtedly come
when insulated farm structures will
be the rule rather than the excep
tion. Insulation for farm buildings
is not new, agricultural studies at
Rutgers university reveal. The use
of sawdust in the ice house is a
good example of its early use. Now
that farmers are better acquainted
with the materials and how to use
them and because insulation is now
more readily available and reason
able in cost, more farm buildings
are being insulated than ever.
Generally speaking, it pays to in
sulate animal shelters. Insulation
reduces the rate of heat loss from
the building, hence should make it
warmer and more comfortable for
the live stock. Suppose, however,
that cracks around windows and
doors allow air leakage causing a
greater heat loss than that through
the walls themselves. Under these
conditions, insulating the wall will
do little good and is not advisable
unless the doors and windows are
also repaired to prevent air leaks.
This sort of reasoning must be ap
plied to poultry houses, dairy sta
bles, hog houses, horse barns and
the like.
Early farm structures made of
barn boards and battens had cracks
allowing ample ventilation of its
kind. The stock lived under rea
sonably healthful conditions al
though often at quite low tempera
tures. Tighter walls resulted in less
air movement with consequent con
densation on walls and ceiling in
dicating the need for ventilation. So
we see that the use of insulation
amplifies the ventilation problem and
that the volume of air required for
ventilation is so great that the flues
must be very large.
Government Develops
Better Grass Strains
Grass breeding is “catching up”
with research on other economically
important plant crops, reports M. A.
Hein, pasture specialist of the fed
eral bureau of plant industry. Grass
long has been recognized as the
cheapest of live stock feeds, but un
til recently little attention was given
to better grass strains through breed
ing. ' Department forage specialists
co-operating with various state ex
periment stations have shown that
grasses can be improved by breed
ing as much as field crops.
Recent studies, for instance, show
that length of day, light intensities,
air and soil temperatures all play
an important part in grass growth.
How to induce and increase the pro
duction of grass seed, particularly
in the Southeast and the Great
Plains where many of the more de
sirable and most promising grasses
fail to produce any quantity of viable
seed, is another problem that the sci
entists want to know more about.
Why some grasses are more palat
able and higher in nutritive value
than others also is being studied.
To carry out grass studies as rap
idly as possible, the country has
been divided into regions where there
is a similarity in the problems and
consequently in the methods of at
tack. Adaptation studies of large
numbers of domestic and foreign
grass species are made at nurseries
in the various regions. In this
preliminary work studies are made
of the palatability and the reaction
of the introduced grasses to grazing.
As far as possible those that fail
to show promise in this initial phase
of the breeding program are elimi
nated.

Skimmed Milk
All farm ers know that skimmed
milk is a good feed for pigs, but
many people do not know just what
its feeding value is. Skimmed milk,
and buttermilk too, are both defi
cient in vitamins A and D and in
iron. Vitamin D, which aids in the
assimilation of minerals, is supplied
by the sun. Vitamin A and other
vitamins, proteins and minerals, in
cluding iron, are supplied by good
pasture, and to some extent by
green, leafy legume hay.
