Method Of Docking Sheep. Methods
employed in cutting the tails from
sheep in the division of Animal hus-
bandry at University Farm, St. Paul,
are first to place the lamb on its back,
pushing the skin on the tail back to:
wards the body as far as possible so
that enough skin will remain to cover
the stump of the bone when the tail
is cut off. In operating on lambs
several months old draw the skin
back closely to the body and tie a
ligature tightly around the stub of the
tail until an hour or two afterward to
prevent excessive bleeding. Place the
lambs in clean pen bedded with
clean straw. Cleanliness prevents in
lection, and in such an enclosure
bleeding can be detected. Rams
should be castrated at time of dock
ing, while in the hands Of the opera
tor, if proper physical development of
the organs has been reached. This
condition occurs about ten days after
birth.

Cultivation Of Corn.

Cultivation Of Corn.
Corn, like all other vegetation, OBJ
tains its food from the soil through it's
roots. When cultivating it the least
disturbance of the roots possible
leaves them in the best condition to
feed the stalk. Little disturbance of
the roots means shallow cultivation.
On poorly plowed and carelessly
farmed land, experience at the state
experiment station at st. Anthony
Park shows, the corn roots grow clos
er to the surface than in we'll and
deeply plowed fields that have been
opened to considerable depth by the
growth of clover. Such a field can
not be cultivated as deeply as one
where the seed bed has been intelli-
gently prepared. Cultivation simply
to get rid of weeds is not enough.
Corn should also be cultivated to re-
tain moisture in the soil. Wet soil
can be opened to evaporation, aera-
ton and warmth by cultivation, and,
il the cultivation is not deep enough
to injure the roots, corn can be
worked in until after tasseling if a
one-horse cultivator be used.

A German ironclad collided with
the Swedish schooner Johanna from
Halmstad. The accident took place
in the Big Belt, and the Swedish YES
sci was badly damaged. The schooner
observed all rules of navigation, so
the blame rests exclusively on the iron
clad. The German vessel offered to
tow the damaged vessel to Kcrsor,
but it's captain ordered it to be taken
to Halmstad. BY means of wire
less message small vessel of the Ger
man squadron was instructed to do
this work.
The late Bjornstjerne Bjornson did
more than any other man to get Nor
way out of the Swedish Norwegian
union. Many years ago he even went
so far as to carry his fight against
Sweden into the Russian press. This
fact is still fresh in the minds of the
the. SWedes. But now that the great
poet and political chieftain is dead the
Swedes vie with each other in paying
their tribute to his noble qualities.
Here and there newspaper, however,
voices the sentiment that Swedish
patriotism would seem to require a
more dignifed attitude in this matter.
It is significant fact that the warm
est outpourings Of feelings came from
the most popular Swedish poets, Selma
Lagerlof and Herr Won Heidenstam.

Experiments at University Farm
show that insects are a menace to all
poultry, but more especially to the
young chicks who are apt to become
infested with head lice. These in
sects are very destructive of young
chicks and are easily gotten rid of by
greasing their heads with unsalted.
lard, into which slight amount Of
kerosene oil has been mixed: or by
using vaseline or carbolic salve.
These lice usually appear about q
week after Matching. and may be pres.
ent for month. Practice the treat

and all practical poultry men agree
that a hen to be set should be re-
moved from the nest where broodiness
first develops and placed where she
will not be disturbed by other mem.
bers of the flock. Place an upturned
sod in a box about fourteen inches
square, slightly following the sod, into
which place a little clean straw or
planers shavings. After having tried
the setting qualities of the bird for
day or two, put the eggs into the nest,
thoroughly dust the bird with insect
powder and place her on the nest.
See that she has water and food.

unlocked Lambs. T

unlocked Lambs. The Animal
Husbandry division of the Department
of Agriculture of this state suggests
the docking of lambs at an early age,
because the unlocked not only pre-.
sent filthy condition when turned
out to pasture but soon get into an
unsanitary condition that invites dis.
turbance from flies. Docked eve
lambs are also shown by the station
experiments to develop into better and
surer breeders. A large per cent of
unlocked eve lambs utterly fail to
breed. On the market the docked
sheep, being slightly and clean bring
rs or so cents a hundred pounds more
than the unlocked. The market de.
mands clean, wholesome looking
stock. If a distinguishing mark in
sexes is desired by the farmer an ear
can be clipped on one sex. Such
wound will heal in a day or two and
will not detract from the cash value
on the market.

Good Seed Institutes.

Good Seed Institutes.
Good Seed Institutes, under the
auspices of the Farmers Institutes,
will be held next winter in many
places in the state as the result of CO.
operation of the local business men
with the institute department. The
object of the good seed institutes will
be to furnish farmers information re-
garding the production and selection
of good seed. These institutes will be
Of no less interest to farmers than the
regular Farmers Institutes, and will
be conducted by practical institute
workers, who, through long expert
ence and study have developed sys-
tenn Of farming and seed selection
that should be understood and prac-
ticed by every farmer. The improved
quality of the grains of Minnesota is
as largely dependent upon good seed
as an increased yield per acre is de-
pendent largely upon the conserva-
ton of soil fertility.

In cuItivating Corn it is net neces-
sary to stir the soil more than two
inches deep to keep it in good condi-
ton. A surface cultivator is used at
the state experiment station after the
first or second cultivation, and it is
found to be very efficient. Knives for
shallow cultivation, attachable to any
cultivator, can be purchased of most
dealers in agricultural machinery. If
it is not found at the local dealers
store the Farmers Institute, st. An
thony Park, will give the address of
dealers or manufacturers.
Late Fattener for Hogs. Nothing
for fattening hogs in the fall is pre-
ferable to field corn. In the north
western part of the state, says the
Minnesota Experiment station, the
flint or other early ripening varieties
should be planted for this purpose. In
southern Minnesota the regular field
varieties may be used successfully.
The Experiment station has found
that hogs, given free access to the
field, do better THAI when corn is
snapped and fed to Them. :

method is used, and the hens are
given fair chance, the, will produce
large flocks and pay. the farmer in

People who use an incubator, says
the Minnesota Experiment station,
should not remove chicks from the
machine until they are thoroughly
dry. Colds at this time are likely to
result in pneumonia and death. The
brooder should be heated to ninety
or hundred degrees before the
chicks are placed in it, and kept at
about that temperature for a week at
least, when the temperature may be
gradually lowered to a degree that
barely renders comfort.
