louise. The proper thing to do is to
plan for the next year. If corn falls
down readily and lies fiat the corn
root worm has been at work. If it
simply bends over, he is probably not
there
The remedy for the corn root worm
is change of crops. Nothing else
will serve the purpose. Anything eX
cept corn or sorghum can be put in.
Whether it will work ON sorghum or
not we do not know to certainty,
but we suspect it will The same rem
edy should be applied to fields that
have the corn root louise. In the
southern part of our territory put them
in winter wheat; in the northern part
in rye; or if you do not want to grow
rye, some spring grains something
else besides corn.
If you are obliged to put the field
in corn next year to preserve your
rotation, then pillow as early as you
can; or if you cut up the corn, pillow
as much as possible this fall. Then
cultivate as early as possible next
spring and keep on cultivating, plant
ing your corn a little late. This will
not free the field entirely from the
corn root louise, but it will diminish
greatly the number of stem mothers,
or yiyaparous females, that is, females
that produce young alive next spring
and keep on producing them alive till
fall. This will help greatly, which is
the most that can be done under the
circumstances.
We bring up this matter now, be-
cause farmers are asking us what to
do with these blue lice, which they
find on corn that seems to lack vital
ity and energy They can be circum-
vented only by planning ahead.-Ex-

The Corn Root Louise

Il Farmers may notice spots in their
corn fields where the corn does not
seem to be doing well. In fact, there
may be occasionally something wrong
with the entire field. The season has
been right so far for the, growth of
corn. There has been an excellent
opportunity to keep it clear of weeds,
and if the land is in even moderately
good heart and corn does not do so
well, there is reason to suspect some
insect pest. It is likely to be either
the corn root worm or the corn root
louise,
The corn root worm will not be
found at this season of the year ex-
cept in the form of small grub. In
a. week or two it will be found as a
beetle, eating the silk off the corn.
The corn root louise, or what farmers
call the blue louise, can be very easily
detected by pulling UP one of those
weak corn stalks and examining the
roots. If there is one, there is likely
to be a thousand. This will explain
why the corn is yellow and does not
| thrive. w. 9
What is. to be done? 1t is not worth
| while to try, and kill these lice, MOI

found in company with the corn root

After Alfalfa

According to bulletin 129 OF the
Pennsylvania experiment stations the
best crop to follow alfalfa is corn,
beets or potatoes. Small grain Is apt
to lodge through in desert soil, as
in Utah, grain has refused to grow at
all until planted on alfalfa sod, when
it yielded as high as 60 bushels per
acre with irrigation. Likewise, in
Colorado, it was thought that pota-
toes could not be proftably grown I'M
til some one tried them on alfalfa sod,
when they became staple and very
profitable crop, whole train loads be-
ing sent from about Greeley to all
parts of the land.
Corn on alfalfa sod will make a
greater growth and larger yield than
ever before seen on that soil, even in
its virgin state.
As the roots are larger and tough
and decay slowly, there will be con-
siderable remnant of the influence of
the decaying alfalfa sod the second
year, and it is the practice to some
times take off two crops of corn in
succession, manuring the ground for
the second crop and at once SOW back
to alfalfa with a nurse crop of spring
barley. This is good practice, for the
reason that in the second years ma
nuring the weaker parts of the field
may receive a double allowance of
manure, and thus the fertility of the
whole be brought to state of even
ness.
1t is notable that the second seed
ing of alfalfa on a field is more sue
cessful than the first, owing, no doubt
to the greater fertility of the soil, the
ready incubation with right bacteria
and the better drainage owing to the
decayed alfalfa roots which have thus
made way for their successors. The
third seeding has proven even better
than the second in many localities.

Wild Mustard

Wild mustard, the bugbear of the
northwestern farmer can be eradicat-
ed from the grain fields by spraying
the fields with a solution of the sui
phate of iron. The above announce
ment is made by o. C. Gregg, superin-
tendent of the Minnesota farmers in
stitute, who has been conducting, a
series of experiments at his farm at
Lynde in Lyman county, Mr.. Gregg
declares that he has established alb
solutely that the mustard pest can be
gotten rid of by using the sulphate OF
iron solution.
Farmers who have waged war
against the, wild mustard will appre-

field OF grain, the mustard spreads rap
idly and unless entirely eradicated be-
fore it goes to seed, will cover the
whole field within. a.-few years. Diff
erent methods. of exterminating the
pest have been resorted to, but none
seems entirely 4satisfactorysloa as the
mustard seeds are tenacious and the
plan is prolific.
The method used by Mr. Gregg In
killing the mustard is simple. When
the grain was about four inches high
and the mustard plants had developed
three leaves, he sprayed the field with
the sulphate of iron solution and found
that the mustard was destroyed while
the grain was not affected The oni,

Good Words About Mules

The following, published in the Ken
lucky Farmer and Breeder, is from
the observations of an experienced
live stock man:
In no country is the mule better
adapted to all the purposes of hus-
bandry for which the horse is used
than in every section of our own. And
it would be highly desirable to be able
to exhibit circulation of the actual
saving in dollars and cents by his
employment, but unfortunately no cor
rect data can be had. And / consider
such calculations, unless founded up
on experimental facts and those null
tiplied, to be as thinking symbals."
Therefore | shall merely submit a de-
sultory comparison between the mule
and the horse, derived from such facts
as my own experience and information
from authentic sources will justify
the assumption.
From what has been stated respect
ing the longevity of the mule | think
1T may be fairly assumed that he does
not deteriorate more rapidly after
twenty years of age than the horse
after ten, allowing the same extent of
work and similar treatment to each.
The contrast in the mules freedom
from malady or disease. compared
with the horse, is not less striking.
Arthur Young, during his tour in Ire
land was informed that gentleman
had lost several fine mules by feed
ing them on wheat straw cut-and I
have been informed that a mule deal
er in the western part of New York
attributed the loss of number of
young mules in a severe winter, when
his hay was exhausted, to feeding
them exclusively on cut straw and In
dian corn meal. In no other instance
have | ever known of a mule being
attacked with any disorder or COM
plant, except two or three cases of
inflammation of the intestines, caused
by gross neglect in permitting them
to remain exposed to cold and wet
when in high state of perspiration
after severe labor and drinking to ex-
cess of cold water. From light frame
and more cautious movements the
mule is less subject to casualties than
| the horse. Indeed, it is not improb
able but farmer may work the same
team of mules above twenty years
and never be presented with a far
rier's bill or find it necessary to ex
ercise the art himself

The Market Hog of the Future

Pork is the laboring mans meat
and always will be- There is no
danger of the demand for good pork
falling off. The laboring man uses
pork, first, because it is cheaper than
other meats and second, because it
contains proper admixture of fat
and lean. The fat furnishes plenty
of energy and heat for the body When
the laboring man buys beefsteak he
must buy butter to fry it in. Pork
steak furnishes it's own fat for fry
ing.
America has produced and devel-
oped some of the finest breeds of hogs
in the world. They are the most
economical feeders, hence, will pro-
duce the largest gains for the food
consumed. Corn, however, is so
abundant in America that the ten
dency has been to feed too much of
this food for the good of the average
hog. An exclusive corn diet produces
fat at the expense of muscle and bone
and undoubtedly tends to produce alb
normal growth and development in
hogs.
|
| lard, besides a growing tendency in
the consumer to eat more lean meat
is sure to have its effect upon the
future of the hog industry. The pro-
ducer must always cater to the con-
sumer. He must supply the kind of
article which the consumer demands.
/ The demand is gradually working to-
wards a hog that contains a larger
percentage of lean meat.
/ The influence of feed upon the an
imal is SO marked, that the American
breeds of hogs can be so modified that
they will comply with this market de-
mand or the farmer can introduce
new types which have been bred and
/ developed for this purpose 1t will
take time and careful selection to pro-
duce the desired type in the improved
a breeds of American hogs. just as it
has taken time and selection to pro-
duce the lard hog. The quickest way
probably to produce an animal which
will comply with the demand of the
Il market is to cross the cornlbred hog,
4 or the lard hog, with the bacon breed.
If this is done and care is taken to
feed ration containing more protein
4 than is usually fed, there is no ques.
u ton but type of hogs can be pro-
a duced which will conform to the grow
, ing demand of the market.

sale was consummated.
Sweet Marie was bred by

PASADENA, Nov. 29.-Before 500
people the Throop Polytechnic In
stitute football team this afternoon
defeated the team from the Pasadena
high school by score of 10 to 2. Had
the Throop team played in anything
like its championship form the score
would have been about "a to 0, but the
big fellows of the institute desired to
make the game more interesting for
the spectators and, accordingly. three
of their best men were not played.
High school made it's two points by
touch back, made In sensational
manner In the first kickoff Germ of
High kicked to Jones Of Throop and
the latter fumbled the ball and the
pigskin sphere rolled over the Throop
line. One of the Throop players fell
upon the ball and the two points were
tallied.t
The only serious accident of the af-
ternoon came early in the game when
Gibbs of the high school sprained his
back slightly and had to withdraw
from the game. Another feature was
the remarkable playing of Kern, who,
with badly injured leg, played the
entire game practically on one foot
His work was really marvellous and
brought enthusiastic applause from the
spectators.
Throop's ten points were divided, five
coming in each half. Touchdowns
made by onslaught after onslaught on
the high school line brought these
scores and in both instances no goal
was kicked.
Throop's substitute players for the
big men out of the game were Cass,
Tout and Smith. The first two played
tackles and did fairly well. French
first half for Throop and Brown went
in as quarter during the last half of
the game. Guy Blick was the un-
doubted star for the high schol team
and put up rafting good game from
start to finish as fullback.
