PHYSICIAN SAID ECZEMA
CAME FROM TEETHING

when my little girl was about
eight months old, she was taken with
a very irritating breaking out, which
came on her face, neck and back.
When she first came down with 1t, it
came in little watery-like testers under
her eyes, and on her chin, then after
a few days it would dry down in scaly,
white scabs. In the daytime she was
quite worrysome and would dig and
scratch her face nearly all the time.
'T consulted our physician and found
she was suffering from eczema, which
he said came from her teething.
used the ointment he gave me and
without any relief at all. Then I
wrote for book on Cuticura and pur-
chased some Cuticura Soap and Oint-
ment at the drug store. I did as
found directions in the Cuticura Book
let, and when she was one year old,
she was entirely cured. Now she is
three years and four months, and she
has never been troubled with eczema
since she was cured by the Cuticura

partment of Bacteriology. Further exs
periments will be taken up later, deal
ing with farmers problems. The mo-
tive behind every experiment will be,
to help the farmers OF Kansas make
more money through their poultry.
Just what problems Will be tackled
first cannot be determined until
more thorough study of the state has
been made.
The Department expects TO urge on
the farmer the use of pure bred poul-
try for three reasons.
The first is, that in the same way
that we say poor folks have poor
ways poor stock, generally, gets
poor care. The mongrel flock is han
died by mongreI methods. If the
farmers of Kansas would start tomor-
row to give their hens the same in
better if they are all alike. The eggs
and carcasses of standard bred stock
are far more nearly alike than those
from a mixed flock. One of the larg-
est buyers of chickens in Kansas re-
Gently made the statement that he
could afford to pay one to two cents
pound more for a dozen good pure
bred carcasses than he could for or
binary mOngrel carcasses.
Now, it often happens that the in
dividual farmer, who has good stock
to sell, finds he cannot get any better
price than his neighbor who has poor
stuff. 1t may be put down as a gen
eral rule that eventually the good
goods brings the good price, though
the farmer may not get the benefit
The question is, how shall the farmer
get the benefit
The same question raises in mar
keting other produce. The man who
hauls his well filled oats to the eleva-
tor often finds the man with light
oats getting the same price. Why?
Because most of the people raise poor
oats. There are not enough good oats
hauled to fill a separate car so the
good are mixed with the bad and go
at the same price. The only way out
for such a man is to combine with
The Hays free press. [volume] (Hays, Kan.) 1908-1924, 1912-04-06

several neighbors who are raising SUI
perior oats and fill a car. Then he
can market them at the higher price.
Practically the same thing can and
will be done in Kansas with poultry.
The key to the situation is COM
munity breeding. One man does not
make much impression upon the local
market, to say nothing of the city
market. Several men breeding the
same kind of birds in a community
will have eggs of the same shape and
color, and carcasses of the same type.
Their output will be important
enough to make an impression on the
local market If the local man does
not come across, the city man will
be glad to get the goods, and pay
premium over the regular market
price They are doing it right along.
The question of producing pure
sweet milk has been discussed from
the platform and by the press for a
good while It doesn't seem to have
occurred to any one that eggs could
be nearly, if not quite, as full Of
germs as milk. An egg will spoil IN
der improper conditions just as sure
~, If not quite so swiftly, as milk.
Eggs should be kept just as cool as
milk is kept if it reaches the con-
sumner in first class condition. It is
not unreasonable to suppose that be-
fore a great many years that the
wealthy people of our cities will be
demanding certified eggs just as they
are now demanding certified milk.
The Poultry Department proposes
to get before the farmers in every
way possible proper methods of keep
ing and marketing eggs, and it viii
take up as well the proper methods
of killing and bleeding poultry, so
that the carcasses will keep and
reach the consumer in first class con-
dition.
The Hays free press. [volume] (Hays, Kan.) 1908-1924, 1912-04-06

advantage than mOngrel flock because
they are uniform. 1t is as foolish to
put beef and dairy cattle in the same
lot and expect the one to get fat and
the other to produce large quantities
of milk on the same ration, d to ex-
pect birds of the Leghorn or Minorca
type on the one hand and Cochins
and Brahmas on the other, and get
good results from the same feed.
The successful feeding 81 hens is
among the most difficult feeding prob
lens on the farm. You can cater to
the individual needs of the horse or
dairy COW. Hens are fed in large
focks. The nearest one can come to
catering to the individual hen is to
cater to the average hen Then have
as many average hens as possible
The only way to do that is TO raise
standard bred poultry. For practical
purposes each bird is about like
every other bird. They are all aver
age hens.
The third reason why it will be to
the farmers advantage to raise stand
ard bred poultry is that it brings a
better price on the general market.
Any one who has marketed anything
from a basket of peaches to a car
load of steers knows that they sell
boast of the most complete course in
poultry husbandry offered anywhere.
The aim of the work in the class
room will be the encourag cement Of
better methods of handling the poul-
try on the general farm. There is no
good reason why every flock of three
hundred hens found on Kansas farms
should not give a nice clean profit of
three hundred dollars. Yet few farm
f1ocks are doing it.
For the present the experimental
work will be confined to the study OF
the bacteriology of the eggs, already
underway in cooperation with the De-

kafir Makes COCO siIaae.

Satisfactory results were obtained
last year at the Kansas Agricultural
College from the use of kafir as silage.
o. F. Reed. head of the dairy depart
ment, says: For that purpose kafr
is better than cane, but not so good
as corn. Kafir ranks between the two
in nutritive food value, acreage yield,
and its effect on the soil. Its special
advantages over corn are that it is
more drouth-resisting and yields high
er. It generally yields about seven
tons to the acre. Comparative test
reports on the use of cane, kaf1r and
corn as silage viii be published next
spring.

Charcoal for cistern Water.

After getting pure water into your
cistern the next thing is to keep it
pure. One good way to do il is to
allow air to circulate in the cistern.
Another is to put three TO six inches
of freshly burned charcoal in the
cistern. If the charcoal will not stay
at the bottom OF is sucked up by the
pump, put some gravel on top of the

The egg industry sustains heavy
losses by breakage. Most of the break
age is due to the shifting of loads in
freight cars, which are exposed 10 all
kinds of jars and knocks. Still, the
farmer can materially decrease these
losses by supplying his poultry freely
with ground oyster shell. This will
serve to give the eggs thick, regular
shell and a maximum of strength.
Such a practice viii not only decrease
breakage. but 1t also VIII greatly re,
