ManuriaI Value Of Feeds.

The manurial value of the various
feedstuffs used on the farm is an inn
portant consideration to every one who
is interested IN economical faca; man
agement.
1t is no longer the only question with
the farmer who feeds animals just how
much he may expect to get in increased
value Of the animal for his feed, but he
also wants to know approximately
what the manurial value of the feed
consumed will be.
He considers the by-product as well
as the main product of his work.
Scientific investigation shows that
protein, the most costly element OF
food, contains 16 per cent nitrogen, and
for every pound of protein we purchase
we also purchase sixteen pounds Of
nitrogen.
We find from figures given in WAR
rington's Chemistry of the Farm" thai
when fed to oxen all except 3.9 per cent
of this nitrogen is voided either as 9

We also find that AT per cent O

Mulefoots and Cholera.

Writing to Wallace's Farmer the
veterinary department of the Indiana
experiment station says: In your is
sue of Nov. 26 appears a reference re-
gard:ng nulefooted hogs, in which mem
ton is made of their immunity from
hog cholera. In this connection the
veterinary department of the Indiana
Agricultural Experiment Station con-
Quoted a test in which four healthy
mule footed hogs and four cloven-
footed hogs of mixed breeding of equal
size and weight were exposed to hog
cholera in an infected pen containing
a sick cholera hog AS result all
hogs became sick after seven days of
exposure, and after eleven days of ex-
posure three mule footed hogs and died
Of hog cholera, while the fourth made
a recovery. The checks or cloven-
footed hogs died on the twelfth and
thirteenth days after exposure, save
one, which also made recovery.
In this experiment it was shown that
the mule-footed hogs succumbed to the
disease with the same promptness as
other hogs, and that natural immunity,
as in other hogs, is confined only to
individuals which may occasionally es-
cape.

Breeding Swine.

In breeding swine or live stock of any
kind the breeder should have a WE'LL
defined object in view, a point toward
which to work, a type, an ideal, if you
will, we'll fixed in his mind.
All hogs of the same breed are not
alike, and it is this fact that makes
improvement of any breed possible.
There are different types of the same
breed for the breeder to select from.
and the intelligence and judgment used
in the selection of the animals re-
served for breeders will sooner or later
demonstrate the success or failure Of
the breeder. OF course, methods of
feeding and care cut an important fig
ure Many men who are good feeders
of swine are very poor breeders. but
few good breeders are poor feeders.
The tendency of all our improved an
imals is to revert backward toward
the original type, and in the case OF
swine it should be borne in mind that
while there is no stock that can be sc
rapidly improved by judicious selec-
ton, care and feed, there is none that
will degenerate SO quickly under neg

TEN YEARS THE LIMIT

Lies MONIES Register ana Iedder.1
A most astonishing statement comes
from Congressman Bennett, of New
York, astonishing in view of the fact
that he is a congressman. He says that
ten Years in congress is enough and
that the usefulness of the best of them
is on the wane, if not entirely gone
after that time:
l have noticed that most of those men
who remain in congress more than ten
years seem to get out of touch with the
real sentiment of the country; that they
fail TO represent truly the interests they
are there TO represent. 1t is not entirely
strange that such is the case when we
come 10 think OF it. The men who are
Young in point of service in congress
have fresher perspective of the senti-
ment of the country, but in Washing
ton after many years it seems they get
false view of just what is really
wanted. That is. some of them do.
A great deal in this vein has been
said from time to time by others, but
this is the first time we now recall
when member of congress has con-
fessed to the merit of it.
Is it true that congressman get water
logged after too long residence at the
national capital, and fall into doing
everything by precedence? Is it true
that the new men who are coming in
inject what there is of fresh impulse
in national affairs?
We have recognized as much in deal
ing with the presidency and with cab
met positions. Ten years is unpre-
cedented in the one case and but two
men in the history of the government
have ever reached it in the other.

Protecting Trees From Rabbits.

Thousands of fruit and shade trees
are killed annually during winter by
mice and rabbits. Many remedies are
available and these are usually Of two
forms. The trunk of the tree is either
painted with some solution or wrapped
with some material.
The cheapest and one of the best is
to wrap the trunk with paper and
tie it securely with strong cord. Old
newspapers may be used for the above
purpose, care necessary being to SEQ
that the paper entirely covers the
trunk of the tree higher than the rab-
bits can reach.
Many patent protectors are on the
market such as wire coils and thin
sheets of wood. Corn stalks can also
be used.
A poisoned lime wash may be used.
Paint the trunks of the trees with lime
wash made rather thick to which has
been added about V pound Of arsenate
| of lead to each pailful Of the wash. The
lime wash is made in the usual man
ner by mixing lime and water. After
adding the arsenate Of lead the whole
mixture should be thoroughly stirred
to mix the poison with the wash.
] This wash is put on with an ordi-
nary paint brush and the trunk OF the
tree should be covered as high as the
rabbits can reach. 1t should be re-
newed if there is any indication Of in

IOWA's BIRTHDAY.
[sioux City Journal.


Iowa became state in the union on
the 2sth of December, 1915; therefore
Tuesday was its SD birthday.
Between differences at Washington
and differences at home it took some
time to get Iowa into the sisterhood
The territory Of Wisconsin was divided
by act Of congress approved June u,
1888, and the territory of Iowa created.
The first census of Wisconsin territory
taken in August, 1896, gave the two
organized counties west of the Missis-
sippi-Dubuque and Des Moines a
population of 10.257. In May, 1898,
when a second census was taken, four
teen additional counties had been or
ganized from the two original counties.
and total population of 22.S59 was
reported. Iowa territory included. also,
most of Minnesota and a portion of
lines entered largely into the early de-
bates.
In 1870 the people voted against a
proposal for a constitutional conyen-
ton; like proposal was rejected in
1912. In 1874 convention was author
lied, but the constitution submitted
was rejected. 1t was submitted again
in 1915, and again rejected. Many
were reluctant to assume the burdens
of statehood, but the determining factor
was in the strife between the demo-
Gratis and wing parties. In 184s, under
a change of administration, consti-
tutional convention was authorized
and constitution submitted. The
boundaries We're fixed as they now
exist. The constitution was ratified by
a close yote-9,4 1872 to 9.036. The desire
for statehood was not overwhelming
The admission bill passed by congress
was approved by the president on the
1 2Sth of December, 184s. 1t was some
time before the new state was fully
represented in congress, owing to po-
litical complications. The census Of
1874 returned population of $3.50.
Iowa has become a great state, with
a population Of 2,210.050 under the cen
sus of 1905, and with vote of thirteen
in the electoral college. There is nc
greater agricultural state in the union
and its material development and pros
perity have been unprecedented among
the middle western states.
Iowa is SO, and is young. To wish i
a happy new year is in order, and t.
suggest the hope that it may have
many happy years is wholly within
reason.
There are troubles now and to come
but the mind is likely to feel less thu
: weight of them by resort to some re
view of the manifold troubles. inciden
