ask if the feeding of sulphur to

small doses of sulphur will do no
harm, nor will it help in getting
rid of the lice and it cannot be

of disorders when used in this

FEEDING WILD ANIMALS

Raising alfalfa to furnish win
ter feed for wild animals is prov
ing reat success in the Yellow
stone National Park. One hundred
tons of fine hay have been har-
vested in the government field near
the Gardiner arch and stacked
near the soldiers quarters. Three
years ago a deer was seldom seen
in the vicinity of the Mammoth
Hot Springs and as an experiment
a few bales of alfalfa hay were
scattered near the parade ground.
The next day dozen black tail
deer made their appearance, the
number steadily increasing and
now comprises over 100. The ami
mails quickly lost all fear of human
beings and are not even startled by
the firing of the evening gun with
in 100 yards of them, but show
much more interest in the lowering
of the flag from the staff in the
middle of their feeding ground.

LOUSY STOCK

Dip or wash the animals with a
1 or per cent water solution OF a
tar disinfectant, such as kerso. A
convenient way to apply the rem
edy in the larger animals is with
a spray pump and in sheep and
hogs by dipping. Whatever meth
cd is used, the coat and skin must
be thoroughly wet with the solu-
ton. After treating the herd, the
stables, sheds or sleeping quarters
should be sprayed with about
pcr cent water solution of the dis
inf ectant, or white wash may be
used instead- This is necessary
in order to prevent reinfecting the
herd from the surroundings. If
there is much litter around the
wards it is advisable to move the
herd to other corrals. Tar disin-

ESTIMATING MILK YIELD

In reckoning the milk yield of
a cow common mistake is to fig-
ure on the basis of her yield during
the first two or three months.
Professor Gray of the Canadian Ex-
perimental Farm at Ottawa, gives
records of cows showing that the
yield at first is very deceptive.
One COW noted as great mixer
started out to lead, and did SO for
about two months, but was final
1y next to the last in the whole
heifer behind her in yield. The
only way to find out what COW
is really doing is to weigh the
milk at frequent intervals through
out the season.

NO MELON is BLIGHT PROOF

There is much talk of blight
proof muskmelon varieties, and
some are annually sent out with
that claim, but it is safe. to say
that even reasonably blight resist
ant melon. has not yet material
lied. The quest is not by any
means hopeless as individual plants
vary to some extent in their power
to resist Infection, so that careful
selection may eventually isolate a
good variety that can be depended
on to a greater extent than those we
now have. The Colorado Expert
ment Station claims to be making
Roadway in this direction, and
keen private growers are on the
look out for resistant individuals.

MANAGING HENS

A selected lot of one dozen hens
will lay as many eggs as the aver
age farmer will care to have
Matched and if the hens are mated
to pure bred cock he will be the
sire of all the chicks Matched on
the farm, thus securing uniformity
in color and general characteristics
instead of having chicks of all sizes,
shapes and colors and not of char
acteristic merit The hens not in
company with males will lay just
as many eggs as if with them,
and the eggs possess better keeping
qualities than. those that are fer
tile.

A BARREL HEADER

A barrel header, such as the stores
sell, is a handy implement to own.
But if there are only a few apples
to be barreled, it may not pay to
buy press. One can be rugged
very quickly by using plank or
scantling with one end under stud
reaching to the shed plate and
temporarily nailed in place. The
barrel to be headed forms the full
crum. BE careful, says the Farm
Journal, not to press the apples
to hard.

TESTING FERTILIZERS

The fertilizer tests at the New
York Experiment station showed
no gain in using phosphates OF
chemicals where plenty of manure
was mixed with the soil. On
sandy loans the manure lightencd
it up too much and the commercial
fertilizer proved most efficient.
On the clay loans the opposite re-
suits were obtained. The expert
ments seemed to indicate that let
tuce cares less for the form OF
source of plant food than about the
texture of the soil in which il
grows

BOARD DRAINS SUB

Drainage is a live subject with
the farmers in the northwest, and
many would be glad to do great
deal more of it if they we're in a
financial condition to do so. While
the tile drains are considered the
best, board drains will give very
good service for a number of years
and will enable the farmer to
raise better crops and thus provide
himself with the means for buying
tile later on. Board drains, es-
pecially where the ground is Sc
wet that they are kept constantly
saturated with water, will last for
years. Farmers living in the dis
trlcts where timber is cheap will
find that such drains will answer
the purpose very we'll without
much expense. Such drains have
been known to last twenty or
twenty-five years, at which time
they seemed to be in just as good
a state of preservation as on the
Gay they were put in.
To make wooden drains it US
ua11y requires two men, one to
hold the boat DIS in place and the
other to nail them together. This
method of making board drains
can be improved upon by the use of
a standard. This consists of an
upright board three feet high, hav-
ing notches cut into it six inches
apart, one inch wide and several
inches deep to hold the boards
firmly. The boards are laid in the
nCtches, when the top board can
be quickly and evenly nailed on.
Another method consists of two
posts driven into the ground about
three feet from the fence, with
notched boards nailed across from
each post to the fence. With such
rig as this troughs can be quick
ly made by one man alone. Eek.

at the White House Friday be
fore the cabinet meeting. 1T APP
pears that the law covering the
question of immunity is not as
specific as high government Of

provides immunity from personal
