Protect Fowls From Lice.

From Farmers Review: The pro-
lection Of fowls from lice is one OF
the essential points in raising poul-
try, especially in getting SHOW birds.
find by close observation during my
recent years of experience along this
line that there are two different fam
lilies Of these troublesome pests. The
small mites that are found about and
on the roosts and the large lice that
breed on the fowls. The last men.
toned are not very hard to get rid OF
if each fowl is busted literally with
some good insect powder occasional
". A convenient time to apply this
is after they have gone to roost. The
tirst mentioned are the ones that take
persistent effort to keep down. The
following rules strictly adhered to are
as good as have been able to find:
First, clean, your house thoroughly OF
droppings. litter aud cobwebs, etc.
and burn plenty of birthstone in it,
Then whitewash it. using plenty Of
carbolic acid in the mixture. Then.
after scalding roosts With hot water.
paint them with lice paint, and you
have clean house. Keep dropping
boards clean every day and have
roosts painted over every two or
three weeks, and the victory is al
most If not entirely won. If one uses
an incubator he need not be bothered
with lice on voung chickens h,,f ,.yit d
hens the battle is on. These are my
plans, which / find are very success
ful. Dust the hen when set thorough
ly with insect powder. then again the
third week, and then again when done
hatching. also all the little fellows.
and put in coop that you feel sure
is free Of lice. Cleanliness, arst. last
and all the time. is the prevention
which is worth several pounds Of

Importance of paIrYIna.

Importance Of DalryIng.
IT. r. Wright, dairy commissioner
of Iowa, says: Most everybody that
writes or talks about the dairy busi-
ness takes an extreme view, either
that the business Is the only one and
the most profitable one for the farmer
or that It is a matter Of little mo
ment, and, indeed. for a great number
Of farmers, a money losing instead OF
a money making occupation. my
self belong to the optimist class, and
believe not only that the dairy indus
try Of the country is a very large af-
fair, but I believe also that. notwith-
standing the apparent high cost Of
production, it is one Of the most prof
liable industries for the individual,
for the section in which 1t is carried
on, and for the country at large Be
cause the farmer, with his few old
cows. is the visible and immediate
representative OF the dairy business.
we allow ourselves to imagine that
the dairy business Is a very little
thing. The representative OF the
dairy industry stands for the largest
single line OF agriculture save one.
His product, with a value OF $3.50 ,OO0,-
600, is greater than the annual value
Of hogs sold in the United States
$500 .0OO.00O); 1t is greater than the
value Of all hay and forage (s4s4,256,-
S46l; is greater than the value Of all
the meat cattle slaughtered (s4lsi455,-
200); It is greater than the value Of
all the wheat produced ts369, ,945, 300 /;
It is greater than the value Of all the
eggs and poultry ($281, ,17S, ,O35); and
II has a cash value almost twice as
much as the value Of oats s(2l7,09S,.
$50; sheep $4,000. .OOO); barley
($41 ,6s1 1922; rye (s112.29O,540); rice
SS,000,000); and buckwheat ($5,747,.
S53) OF the United States. It far sur
passes the value OF cotton sS30,OOO,'
000), and is second only to the value
OF corn produced (s82s. .25S,S26).

From Farmers Review: Not
knowing just what is meant by the
term ponds. / will treat the subject
on the more general term. all waters
for geese, whether ponds. running
streams or pools Of water We have
raised geese for twenty OF more years
on a farm where geese have access
to all Of these retreats. We must not
forget that the goose is a water fowl,
and water seems to be her chief
source Of pleasure. As to the bene-
fits to be derived from a running
stream, its chief benefit is in the
early spring, when ponds and pools
are frozen. They seek these retreats,
and in their sportive exercise, frolic-
ing and bathing. they are led to co
habit early in the year, SO that our
early eggs are just as fertile as the
later ones. During the long and In
active winter these occasional outings
produce a healthy and vigorous body,
this being conducive to the fertility
Of their eggs. OF course these bene-
fits accrue also from the pond after
the season opens Were asked
whether considered the pond OF
much value in goose culture, I would
say emphatically, yes. Our geese
(true to goose nature) seek out these
ponds and pool retreats, and have
many times remained in and around
them for several days at time, wien
the season-is warm and wet. and have
remained several days without return
ing home, and then only to lay. and
of again for these summer resorts of
the goose family. Aside from the
healthy exercise they obtain much
nourishment in a variety of forms.
Willie our geese are out thus forag-
ing. some Of our ne'ghbors' geese,
which are less fortunate, lounge
around on the meadow or rest a con
siderable part Of the time. l have
also noticed that some Of our neigh.
boris geese apparently wait until a
shower furnishes a pool in order to
make it convenient for them to 60.
habit It is certainly true that a pond
conduces much to the fertility Of eggs
in stimulating their sexual organisms
We breed only the two bun varieties
and in keeping a careful record OF
eggs set. | find that from 30 to 10(
per cent OF eggs in setting have
hatched. OF course not grain stuffed
until abnormally fat Had no water
| would certainly have at least a large
tub planted level with the ground al
ways filed with water during the
early spring and during the mating
season. l have said nothing Of bene
fits derived in growing geese. but fol
them from the point OF rapid growth
I think the pond very valuable aftel

have allowed to run to these places

Siberian butter has stirred up so
much enthusiasm among the Russians
that native thieves have begun steal.
ing H. Not long ago barrels loaded
with butter at enc end Of the route
turned up al the other end full of
ice and stones. So many casks of
butter were lost that the government
took up the matter and ran some OF
the thieves to earth. It was found
that they had confederates among the
drivers of the carts that transferred
the butter Casks similar to those
containing butter were filed with ice
and stones and left in a lonely place
In the forest There the exchange
took place Now the government is
arranging TO 50 mark and seal the

casks can be made without detection.
