Parasites Of Glover,

A popular edition Of Bulletin No. 20
has been issued by the experiment
station of Iowa State College, on the
subject of Some Weeds of Iowa" 1t
was prepared by DR.. l.. II. Pommel,
botanist of the station. The following
section on the dodder will be found
of interest, for this parasite weed is
found In many parts of the country.
During the last few years, DIR.
Pommel says. dodders have made their
appearance upon clover in different
sections of the country. Five species
have been reported upon alfalfa and
clover. Mr.. Dewey states, from his
experience, that the dodder is rarely
found east of the Missouri River. No
doubt, however. 1t occurs occasionally.
Farmers should, therefore, be on their
guard for this plant 1t belongs to the
same family as the common morning
glory.
The dodders are leafless, except the
small scales on the stems; herbs of
yellowish color, with threadlike stems
twlning around the plants upon which
they live. They pierce the bark with
small and short rootlets. which are
called suckers, or haustoria. The
seeds are small, yet there is stored suf-
flcient nourishment in them to give the
embryo q start The seed terminates
in the soil and grows sufficiently in
length to allow II to come in contact
With the plant upon which 1t Ives,
when II Immediately sends in its suck
ers, and thus becomes established up
on the plant as though 1t was q part
of che host.
The dodders contain no chloropbyll,
the green coloring matter found in
leaves, and hence cannot make plant
food; that is, make starch out of raw
material such as ordinary green leaves
do, but must derive their nourishment
entirely from the host upon which they
live. Such plants are called parasites.
The first and most important point
Is to obtain seed that is free from the
dodder seed. 1t is best, therefore, TO
obtain the seed grown in the Missis-
sippi Valley and the East. European
seed should not under any considera-
ton be purchased. There is likelihood
Of some danger from the, East, some
danger from the South. and especially
from the West. Glover seed grown in
States south Of Iowa is hardly suited
for our conditions, and It is not likely
that the Iowa farmer will purchase
much of this seed.
Farmers cannot too emphatically be
cautioned against sowing dodder in
tested clover seed. The ultimate loss
caused by the dodder will greatly ex-
ceed the cost of cleaning the clover
seed, and clean seed should be bought
at any price.
The dodder may be exterminated
when once established in the follow
ing way: First, by the herbicidal
treatment For this purpose a solu.
ton of copper sulphate in the follow

Nut Trees For Shade.

We plant out almost innumerable
shade trees that yield us absolutely
nothing besides their services as para
soils in summer and perhaps as wind.
break In winter. If nut-bearing trees
were planted in their stead they would
make as good a growth, serve the pur-
poses of the others equally well and
yield us a good supply of nuts at the
same time. Nearly or quite all of our
nut.bearing trees are hardy in the
larger sections of our country. Hick-
ory, walnut, chestnut, pecan and fl
berts-the most common kind of nuts
we have-can be found to some extent
all over this country. and with little
pains in planting such, and otherwise
giving them due attention, could be
made to,grow almost anywhere. The
principal reason for this not being done
Is, people have not thought Of it. We
have been accustomed to buying and
setting out all kinds of fruit trees, but
whenever we wanted supply of nuts
we expected to go to the woods and
gather them. No effort was made to
grow them at home.
Along the walks and lanes in pas
lures, nut-bearing trees might be
planted either in groves or strips, and
used as wlnd-breaks for stock, the Or
shard or the farm buildings and as a
combination of shade, protection and
fruit-of the useful and the agreeable.

Of fifty gallons to the acre.
1t Is advisable TO NOW the patch IL

pile, allowing it to dry, and then burn.
This should be watched carefully, for
If the seed is formed young dodder
plants will make their appearance up
on the new growth of clover coming
on. So it is best to follow the moving
by hoelng il the patch is a small one,
and continuing this for several weeks
until all danger of infection is passed.
Dewey recommends keeping the soil
stirred for about two inches, and that
shallow cultivation is best since the
seeds, If buried deeper cannot come
to the surface and infect the clover
plant.

rheumatism in Swine.

An unusual number Of inquiries
are made regarding n cure for rheu-
matism among swine. mainly with the
summer dropped pigs. In the majority
of cases this trouble is due to pens that
are either draughty or damp. perhaps
both. This being the case, the first
thing to do is TO fix the pens, seeing to
1t that the floor is dry and kept so,
and that the pigs have heavy bedding
Of dry material every night. Then
see that the water given them is clean,
and that there are no direct drnughts
of air blowing over them at night. To
relieve the attack, let the feed be Of
middlings and milk, for the pigs and
the hogs also, with half pint Of
dried blood meal divided equally for
the three feeds daily and mixed in the
feed. If other attacks follow, give
five grains each of salol and qulnine
concealed in some vegetable, such as
the half of small potato.

Increase the Poultry.


The average farmer does not keep
poultry enough. A little larger invest
ment in poultry will increase the in
come of the farm and bring a profit
that cannot be equalled by the same
amount invested in any other line of
farming. BY this do not mean that
the farmer shall become a fancier or
a poultry specialist, but l do mean
that he usually neglects the faithful
hen, and If he will post up on this
branch of live stock husbandry and
take as much pains with his hens as
he does with his other live stock he
can increase his profits with very little
labor and money expended.
The poultry business now is sta
BILE business. Just as much so as hogs
or cattle or the dairy. 1t used to be
that you could scarcely sell poultry
and eggs at certain seasons of the
year, but that is not the case now.
There is market for all the poultry
and eggs that can be produced, and at
fair prices. The large packers have
developed the poultry market just the
same as they have the meat market,
and our poultry and eggs are trans
ported by them to the markets of the
world. Both eggs and poultry are
preserved In cold storage and distri-
buted to the people as the market
warrants.
The farmer can produce pound of
chicken just as cheaply as he can a
pound Of beef, pork or mutton, and It
always brings better price. Why,
then, not give this branch Of our bust.

The inhibitory measures of Ger
