FARMERS AND BREEDERS, TAZEWELL COUNTY
limestone at reduced prices for the members.
Early in the fall of 1916 arrange- ments were made for organizing the milk producers of Tazewell and Peoria counties. After some prelimi- nary local meetings, a mass meeting was held in Peoria and the Peoria Milk Producers' Association was or- ganized with a large membership in the two counties on a membership fee of $2.50 annually. The organization is governed by a board of six direc- tors. The directors made a contract with milk dealers for an increase in milk prices amounting to about 28 per cent. This has put the dairy busi- n'ess on a secure footing in the two counties and has prevented many farmers from selling their cows and getting out of the business because of the loss sustained because of high feed costs.
During the last year the county agent visited 475 different farmers on their farms and made a total of 746 farm visits to talk over the work. Calls on the agent at the office num- bered 888. He spoke at 94 meetings, with a total of 2,320 persons present; wrote 56 articles for the local papers, 29 circular letters, of which 13,580 copies were mailed, and dictated 6,100 personal letters about the Farm Bureau work. There were nine agri- cultural observation parties conducted to view various demonstrations of im- proved practices. The Farm Bureau held two spring stallion shows, with seventeen stallions exhibited, and six colt shows, with 189 colts shown.
The co-operative business done by the Farm Bureau and its subsidiary
organizations, the Reid's Yellow Dent Seed Corn Society and the Tazewell County Percheron Association, amounted to a total of $35,282 for the past year. This included the pur- chase of 232 bushels of alfalfa seed, 17 bushels of sweet clover seed, 1181/2 bushels of red clover, 995 pounds of rape, besides the exchange of live stock, seeds and farm products through the monthly sale list. The purchase also includes 15 cars of 475 tons of phosphate rock, and 86 cars or 3,161 tons of limestone. Fifteen Percheron stallions were sold and 48 grade Percheron mares. The esti- mated saving effected by this co- operative business was $3,955.
The work of 1917 includes many more actual farm demonstrations than in any other year. The prob- lems which have been taken up espe- cially are the growing of soy beans in corn for hogging down in the fall, the comparative value of different forage crops for hogs, the production of awnless brome grass for pasture on sandy land and the use of soy beans on the sandy land for soil improve- ment. A number of members are also raising one or two acres of navy beans. The better and larger use of gardens has been pushed throughout the county and nearly every family has a good garden this summer. Spe- cial demonstrations have been under- taken in feeding cattle and hogs to secure the most economical gains un- der the changing scale of feed prices. Later on in the summer and fall, demonstration trips and farm meet- ings will be held to acquaint all the members with the results.

The Tazewell County Percheron Association
T HE TAZEWELL COUNTY
PERCHERON ASSOCIATION was organized July 5, 1913, within a month after the Farm Bureau work started in Tazewell county. After talking the plan over with some of the leading Percheron breeders, we called a meeting at Tremont for the purpose of organization. About fifty breeders joined at that time and that has been about the number of mem- bers ever since. Membership was con- fined to Farm Bureau members who were interested in Percherons. The purpose of organization is to encour- age the breeding of Percheron horses and to co-operate in buying and sell- ing.
The officers of the association are: H. S. Griesemer, Hopedale, president; A. L. Robison, Pekin, vice-president; E. T. Robbins, Washington, secre-
tary, and C. O. Myers, Pekin, treas- urer.
In the fall of 1913 a list was issued describing 140 head. - Through this sale list, buyers were drawn here from all parts of the country and the first man to come took two carloads. All the horses listed were disposed of. In the fall of 1914 a similar list was issued for all the surplus available at that time, which was sixty head. This likewise resulted in good sales and a clearance of the surplus horses.
For 1915 a different plan was tried and an auction sale was held in Pekin, December 9, in which thirty- two head of sound, selected Perch- erons, largely yearling and two-year- old stallions, were sold for a total of $9,795, or an average of $306 per head. Immediately after the sale, some of those who bought horses at that time

picked up others privately and shipped them all out together. Sales of Percherons privately continued throughout the winter and spring. From the start of the organization a few grade Percheron mares were sold each year, but in the winter of 1915- 1916 we had a great demand for medium-sized grade Percheron mares and fillies from farmers in other states who wanted horses a little bet- ter than their neighbor's. That winter we sold forty-two of these grade mares and they went to Massachu- setts, Connecticut, New York, Penn- sylvania, Florida, Alabama, Northern Illinois, Kentucky and Indiana.
In the season of 1916-1917, monthly lists of available Percherons were is- sued and agricultural journal adver- tising was used. This resulted in a large stallion trade and also the sale of a good many Percheron mares and a few grade mares. We were closely sold out all winter and disposed of about forty head of registered Perch- erons through the association.
In the spring of 1917 a committee from the association co-operated with other horsemen in a meeting at Springfield in which an improved stallion licensing bill was drafted. This bill was adopted by the House Committee on Agriculture and intro- duced without change as House Bill No. 831.
Early in the summer of 1917 the association selected about forty head of Percherons from among the ani- mals owned by different members to be exhibited at Springfield during the the state fair, as a Tazewell county Percheron exhibit.
From the start one of the activities. of the association has been the en- couragement of colt shows. These were begun with two colt shows in 1913 and the number has been in- creased until six colt shows are now held annually, well distributed over the county. Classifications are ar- ranged so that colts of any breeding can show, but the experience has been that the registered Percherons have made such a good appearance that the colts of other breeding have declined in number, white the Perch- cron colts have increased. Most of these colt shows have from twenty to fifty entries of very creditable foals. The shows are all held from August to September. In 1916 two stallion
shows were held, one at Washington and one at Tremont. At each of these all the best sires in the community were on exhibition in the main street of the town during an afternoon, where all the farmers could look them over and compare them.
As an example of the benefit to the individual member of this association the experience of Chris Guth, Jr., of Washington, is typical. Mr. Guth had only begun breeding Percherons and did not have much acquaintance with buyers. Through the association he has made practically all of his sales. During the four years the association has been in operation he has sold, through it, three stallions to North Dakota, one to Kansas, one to Iowa, one to Texas, two or three to Illinois buyers and one mare to Connecticut, besides two grade fillies to Kentucky. During this time he has increased his number of Percheron mares by the animals he has bred and has disposed of all of his grade mares, so from hence- forth he plans to do all of his farming with registered Percheron brood mares and colts. Sanı Gerber of Tremont is an example of the assistance the association gives a man in starting. Through the influence of the associa- tion he purchased, in 1913, a nice pair of registered fillies, which were one and two years old. Since that time he has sold one stallion colt and two fillies at nearly enough to pay the original price of the pair and he has one filly foal on hand. The mares are now five and six years old and just in their prime, so the venture has been a good investment. All of his sales were made through the associa- tion.
The association has made a special point of encouraging young farmers to begin breeding registered Perch- crons and doing their farm work with then. Those who are just getting a start, in most cases with one or two foundation mares, are Chris Vercler. Washington; Alvin I .. Guth, Wash- ington; J. H. Ackerman, Morton: I. R.

This work promises to give Taze- well county a still more prominent place than it already occupies as a Percheron breeding ground. The latest list of the Percheron Society of America shows that Tazewell county leads the United States in the num- ber of Percheron breeders in propor- tion to its improved area. Taking the four leading Percheron counties,
Tazewell county has 93 members in the Percheron Society of America, or one to every 3,530 acres of improved farm land; McLean county has 190 members, or one to every 3,700 acres; LaSalle county has 120 members, or one to every 5,040 acres, and Liv- ingston county has 113 members, or one to each 5,580 acres. Tazewell is not a large county, but it is thus the most thickly settled with Percheron breeders of any county in the United States.
The Reid's Yellow Dent Seed Corn Society of Tazwell County
T HE REID'S YELLOW DENT CORN SOCIETY OF TAZEWELL COUNTY was or- ganized March 10, 1914, through the influence of the Tazewell County Farm Bureau, with which its work is associated. The twenty-five farmers who. belong to this society are all ex- clusive breeders of Reid's Yellow Dent corn and are all Farm Bureau members. C. S. Slonneger of Mor- ton is president; T. E. Orth of Washington, vice-president; N. R. Peine, Minier, secretary; A. C. Helle- mann, Tremont, treasurer, and E. T. Robbins, Washington, inspector.
The society was organized to estab- lish and preserve a distinct type of Reid's Yellow Dent corn, to encour- age and promote the growing of pure Reid's Yellow Dent corn, to perfect new and better methods of growing and breeding, to furnish reliable seed corn of this variety, to exhibit Reid's Yellow Dent corn at agricultural fairs and shows, and to hold meet- ings to discuss the breeding work done by the members.
In September, 1914, the society is- sued a sale list of which several thou- sand copies were distributed. This gave a list of 3,500 bushels of Reid's Yellow Dent corn for sale by the dif- ferent members, and also included a little account of the work of each member in breeding corn and gave the history of Reid's Yellow Dent corn. The variety originated in Taze- well county, near Delavan, in 1817.
At that time Robert Reid established the strain and it has been bred pure ever since. Most of the improvement was made by his son, James L. Reid.
No sale lists have been issued subsequently, as a big demand and sale has taken all the surplus ever since the first year that the society was organized. In 1914 an acre corn contest was conducted and the society gave a $25 prize to the winner, Arthur C. Hellemann, Tremont, who pro- duced 59 bushels and 55 pounds of ear corn at 70 pounds to the bushel, weighed the last of November. The low yields were due to the terrible drouth of that year. In 1916 the society offered a special prize for Reid's Yellow Dent corn shown at the county fair, and this was won by H. S. Griesemer of Hopedale. In 1916 the society cooperated with the superintendent of schools in teaching corn judging at a number of schools early in October. Some of the mem- bers who volunteered for this work went to as many as half a dozen schools. Those who did the work were Arthur C. Hellemann, Tremont; G. Harrington Mcclellan, route 34, Peoria; Clarence Wilson, Minier, and C. B. Oswald, Morton.
Sommer Bros., Pekin; C. S. Slonne- ger, Morton; T. E. Orth, Washing- ton; A. C. Hellemann, Tremont; A. B. Kennel, Minier; H. S. Griesemer. Hopedale, and C. B. Oswald, Morton, have successfully shown much Reid's Yellow Dent corn at the shows. The

latest triumph in this line was that of Sommer Bros., who showed the champion ear at the state show at Urbana, Ill., last winter.
The members who are official Illi- nois corn judges are C. S. Slonneger, Morton; A. B. Kennel, Minier, and O. J. Sommer, Pekin.
Each year the seed corn saved by each member has been inspected by County Agent E. T. Robbins. Sam- ples kept at the Farm Bureau office for comparison show that the differ- ent members are picking exactly the same type. Uniformity of type is maintained by comparing their sam- ples at meetings during the winter. The members are making every ef- fort to keep their variety pure bred and this is comparatively easy, since Reid's Yellow Dent has been the pre- vailing variety of corn in Tazewell
county for over half a century. The breeders have selected and bred their corn for high yields as well as show type. The natural adaptation of their corn to the soil and climate of the best corn growing region of the world makes it natural that Reid's Yellow Dent should have spread throughout the corn belt. The so- ciety is maintaining the popularity of this corn as the best and special corn of the county and the members are prepared to supply farmers every year with Reid's Yellow Dent -seed corn of the most satisfactory quality. Tazewell county is already famous as the birthplace of this wonderful vari- ety of corn and these breeders are maintaining the lead in perfecting Reid's Yellow Dent to meet all farm, show and market requirements.
