E. MATTINGLY, Sec'y. Box Elder, Cottonwood, Properly Treated Good for Z5 Years, Tests Show. (Courier Special Service) Ames, la. Twenty to 25 years of service from cottonwood or box elder fence posts, If properly treated with creosote or water gas tar is possible, announces the forestry department of the Iowa experiment station here.

Iowa farm tests have 6hown that properly treated posts of Inferior woods, or varieties that do not stand exposure, can be expected, the department announces. About 25 years ago the college foresters treated willow, soft maple, box elder, white cedar and basswood fence posts with creosote and set them out. At the end of 18 or 17 years, many of these poets were still as sound as when they were set In the ground. In all cases they showed possibilities of lasting 20 to 25 years where they had been properly treated. In some of these first tests, only the bottom of the posts were creo-soted 'and in such cases the tops of the posts above the ground rotted off while the bottoms of the posts In the ground were still perfectly sound.

More recent tests were started about six years ago on the Indian reservation in Tama county. There 1,500 cottonwood posts were treated with creosote, water gas tar, refuse from city gas plants, and mixtures of water gas tar and creosote. One lot of 300 posts was treated with 15 per cent water gas tar and 25 per cent creosote. A like number were treated with half and half of the water gas tar and creosote: 300 with 25 per cent water gas tar and 75 per cent creosote; 300 with creosote alone. Altho these tests have not been running long enough to determine the value of the water gas tar, which is much cheaper than creosote, G.

B. MacDonald, head of the forestry department, believes that water gas tar may afford a much cheaper and effective way of treating the commonly grown woods for posts. HOME FURNISHING WORK ON DELAWARE PROGRAM November butter slump the average price for the year was 48.3 cents a pound. Efficiency of manufacture was another optimistic note this year, the average cost of making a pound of butter being 2.5 cents. Des Moines lNS)gecretary of Agriculture Thornburg Wednesday was advised that the first livestock co-operative concentration point organised In Iowa under the tentative plans of the federal farm board has been established at Cedar Rapids.

Part of Statewide Flan. Formation of these concentration point co-operatives is to be fostered at an early date by a state-wide committee which was authorized at the conference here last week of farm leaders and two representatives of the farm board. Gov.

Hammlll Is to name the committee shortly. It Is anticipated that the state committee will be organized and ready to begin functioning by the time the livestock committee designated for the work has finally submitted Its livestock marketing set-up and definite plans are announced by the farm board. Lack of Information as to Just what program will be adopted by, the board was the cause of the uncertainty in last week's farm conference here and the reason the two chief farm organizations of the state withheld their final endorsement. Want Harmony. The governor has stated he would proceed with great care in naming his committee in order that harmony may prevail in the livestock industry of the state and full cooperation with the federal board may be achieved.

The federally organized concentration yards at Cedar Rapids, authorized under the plan of the livestock marketing plan of the farm board will also affect the already established farmer concentration yards at Toledo as well as the Infant organization at Buckingham.

Starting with 'a debt of $17,000 five years ago In a territory In which competition for butterfat was keen, the Kesley Cooperative creamery has set a record for community co-operation that is unique among small creameries. At the present time, the $17,000 debt has been reduced by $13,000 with butterfat payments and list of patrons showing a steady growth. When the farmers in this section of Butler county decided that a co-operative creamery was the thing in order to secure the best price for their butterfat, they did not buy an old creamery or move into an old building, but instead erected a modem brick structure and put in all new equipment Sweet cream butter, for which a premium over New York extras is paid, is made by the local creamery.

A NATION-WIDE SELLING-EVENT COD LIVER OIL GOOD IN YOUNG PIG RATION Don't Miss FRIDAY AND SATURDAY 2 Days JANUARY 24 AND 25 0 III Ml (rMilll-J Cod liver oil aids materially in securing healthy winter fed pigs, according to C. C. Culbertson of the animal husbandry section at Iowa State college. One of the essentials that many pigs fail to receive during the dark, cold winter days 13 vitamin D.

Vitamin is the rickets-preventing vitamin and when not available from direct sunlight must be supplied otherwise. Pigs fed and raised during mild, sunny winter seasons are less likely to need a supplementary feed to supply this vitamin, but when the season is cold care must be taken to supply a ration containing the vitamin. Steam-rendered cod liver oil has proved both economical and helpful in supplying the needed Ingredient in tests at the college and Is recommended for feeding where the vitamin is not secured elsewhere.
