FARM POULTRY PLANT.
A Good Deal Of Money May Be Made
for the Farmer by His
Flock.

The farmer that does not have we'll
equipped poultry plant loses the Oppor-
tunity Of adding very materially to his
income and he also misses that very I'M
portant end--the providing Of his family
with several kinds of luxuries, poultry
meat. and eggs. We might say that he
misses seeing his family enjoy broilers
in the late spring, old hens and roosters
in the summer, spring chickens in the
fall and fat cockerels and capons in the
winter, as we'll as the eggs. One Of the
compensations for living in the country
Is to have all of thsse things fresh, and
at will without sending many miles for
them. Moreover, the family Of the
farmer need not stint itself in these
things as the family of the citizens must
do out of reasons Of economy. This
should be the first object with the farm
er in the keeping of poultry. Now and
then we find farmer who sells all his
best products and keeps the poorest for
his family. That is a poor way Of doing.
The family should have at least as good
as goes of the farm.

SAVES FARMERS MILLIONS.
Prevention Of oat Smut ~ Result Of
1nvsstigat Of College
Of Agriculture.

Statistics Just compiled by agricul-
tural experts show that as a result Of
the investigations, by the college Of
agriculture Of the University Of Wis
consin, Of the means of preventing oat
smut, the farmers Of Wisconsin are
being saved nearly $5,0O0,O00 annually.
Since Wisconsin ranks among the
greatest oat producing states in this
country (for each year over 2,500,0O0
acres are sown with OATS which pro-
duce crop of 100,0O0,000 bushels,
worth annually from s25,000,000 to
$50, 900, ,000), these Investigations are of
vital Importance to thousands of farm
ers In all parts of the state. For many
years the annual loss to the farmers
In the Oat crop averaged more than
Is per cent. or over 100000 bushels
Of oats, valued at nearly $5,00O,000.
The barley crop of 100000 bushels
suffered an annual loss of 100000
bushels on account of the smut. Sta
tistics show that through the expert
ments of the professors of the Wis
consin college of agriculture, and
through their efforts in spreading
broadcast over the state the results Of
these Investigations, more than two
thirds Of this loss to the oat and bar
ley crops has been prevented, and that
the crops have therefore been in
creased in value nearly 100000 .
year.
The history Of the experiments that
led to the prevention Of this costly
blight Is an interesting illustration Of
the application Of the discoveries Of
pure science to practical problems
such as those of agriculture. A chem
ist discovered product Of common
wood smoke, which Is known as for
maldehyde; a biologist, working along
other lines, found that formaldehyde
was death to fungus life; and finally
professor of the North Dakota ex.
pertinent station tried the effect Of this
chemical on oat smut. The University
of Wisconsin experiment station
learned almost Immediately of the re-
suits of these experiments, and by ap
plying them on large scale proved
that the oat smut could be effectually
prevented by the application Of the
formaldehyde solution to seed oats be
fore planting.
The method of treating the seet
grain is very simple, SO simple in fac
that there is no reason why 1t should
not be universally employed. A pin
of formaldehyde, which costs about 81
! cents, is poured into a barrel contain
ing some 40 gallons of water. The GA
seeds, which are placed in gum!
sacks, are let down into this barre
and allowed to soak in the dilut
chemical solution for some minutes
They are then taken out and dried
after which they are ready for sowinI
without any further treatment. Thu
the cost to the farmer is scarcely NOR
than cent bushel; which is certain
ly very little when compared with tn
destructiveness of the blight and tn
great loss which 1t entails.
