HOW HAY STACKER
SAVES MUCH LABOR
During a Busy Harvesting Season
in the East and
South

Horse Power Instead of
Hand Labor. <

)
Thousands of farmers who faced ,
the harvesting of a large hay crop j
last year with fewer hands than usual
to help do the work owe their success
in handling and saving their crop to
hay stackers. The hay stacker is to
stacking what the horse fork is to
putting hay in the barn, a saver of
man and labor. It lifts the hay on
the stack by horse power instead of
man power. When hay is loaded on
the wagon by hand and unloaded by a
stacker one-half of the hand labor is
eliminated. If push rakes or hay
loaders are used in connection with
the stacker the laborious task of pitch j
ing by hand is entirely avoided.
These points are brought out in
Farmers' Bulletin 1009, recently pub-j
lished by the United States Depart- j
ment of Agriculture, which describes j
the different types of stackers in use,!
discusses the conditions favorable for,
each type, and tells how to make I
them.
Useful in East and South.
.In the East and South, where much
of the hay grown is stored under
cover, a stacker could bo used to advantage
when it becomes necessary to
stack, especially where labor is j
scarce. A boy who can drive a team !
can take the place of a man in the :

uuyuig upci utioii. i v. u inun ami -i
bey using a loader and stacker will
handle about 75 per cent more hay
for each man during a day than a
three-man crew loading and unloading
by hand.
Hay stackers arc classed by the
bulletin in two general types, one hav
ing teeth on which the hay is gathered
and brought to the stack on push
Tacks; the other consisting of stacKeir
that do not receive hay directly
from push racks, but handle it by
means of horse forks or slings. Both
types are comparatively inexpensive
and can usually be made at home
with material that is available crj
which can be readily assembled on
the farm.
A stacker will last from 10 to 12
years under ordinary conditions, and
the cost of repair is small. On 27
farms in central Kansas, which
stack an average of 1-14 tons of bay a
year, all charges against the stackers
amounted to less than 7 cents a ton
when the yield vi s 1 ton an acre.
Small Stacks Not Economical.
In building a haystack with a stack
cm- it is scarcely economical to make
one containing loss than 10 tons, according
to the bulletin. In locating
stacks long or difficult hauls should
be avoided whenever possible. It i
very common on many farms to see
stacks of hay at the end or corner of
the field next to the farm buildings,
the site being chosen in order to have
the hay handy for foodieg. The total
distance traveled in bringing hay tc
on< side of a square field is approximately
50 per cent greater than ir

TERRIFYING DI
FROM
Itching and Burning Eruptions
Torture Victims.
If yoor skin seems ablaze with
the fiery, burning and itching of
Eczema, real and lasting relief can
only come from treatment that
goes below the surface ? that
reaches down to the very source
of the trouble. Skin-diseases come
from a disordered condition of the
blood, and search 'far and near,
hauling to the center. If the stack is
located at one comer of the field, the
iistance traveled is 100 per cent
greater.
To minimize damage by moisture
from the ground, care should be taken
to keep the hay in the bottom of the
stack from comincr in contact with the
soil. The aim of all good stack build
ers is to^make a stack that will not
"take water." This can be accomplished
by tramping the midddle well
and always keeping it higher than
the edge during the process of building.
To give the stack further protection,
many farmers provide a canvas
cover or sheets of corrugated galvanized
iron roofing which, when
properly put on, practically eliminates
loss from rain.

New Orleans.?After the American
Cotton Association at the closing
session here agreed unanimously upon
a scale of temporary minimum prices
from 00 cents for September to 40
cents for may, an uproar over a resolution
for the indorsement of President
Wilson's tour of the league of
nations and for urging the senate
to ratify immediately the peace treaty
ensued in which the proposal to set
aside the two-third rule which would
allow a vote was defeated 40 to 41.
The meeting got beyond the control
of Governor Dorsey of Georgia, who
presided, and in the uproar he repeatedly
pounded the gavel for order.

It should enable the former to

In this connection it is interesting
