POULTRY KEEPERS READ THIS
We publish below a communication
from Mr. Hickey, State Agent in
Poultry Club Work
Sell, Kill or Confine the Rooster
Beginning May 23rd, 1914.

Because ROSTERS are allowed tO
run with laying hens during warm
weather Si5,000,OO0 worth Of eggs
are lost to the farmers throughout
the United States each year; and
most Of this loss occurs during June
July and August. For this reason
raiscrs of poultry are earnestly ask
ed and urged to kill or sell all matur-
ed males or coniine them in pens
away from the laying hens during
tile summer. Eggs that are laid by
hens not mated are sterile or infer
tile, and do not decay. The fertil-
lled eggs spoil very quickly when
subjected to the influence Of heat
and If they are left too long in the
nests or under broody hens or are
left III any very warm place the
germ cells begin to develop, the
chicks begin to grow. These grow
ing cells may die at any stage Of
development due To unfavorable
conditions.
Whether the embryo dies or not,
the egg is useless as food and is I'M
III for market. II the wives of the
farmers would once realize how
much money they practically lose
by allowing the ROSTERS to run
with the layers they would imme-
dlately stop the practice. Not one
more egg is produced with a male
running with a flock OF hens than
without one, and unless the rOos-
tcrs are valuable as breeders, ii is
far better to dispose Of them at the
end of the breeding season and re-
place them with the younger stock
the following spring. II we follow
this plan We can always have good,
strong, vigorous cOckerels young
roosters) for breeders, and at the
same time get rid of the care of non
producers. Let us at least make
the most Of what we possess.
III 'Ih'I w nave CouCtIJeu ACTION
IN this matter the Poultry Depart
mrnt Of the United States Govern
ment has designated the 23rd day Of
May to be known among poultry
raiscrs as Rooster Day" Then
Kill. sell or coniine the Rooster.
Note; The we'll known poultry
buyers who are members Of the
southern Poultry and Egg Ship
pers Association have agreed TO pay
the same for ROSTERS as for hens
on May % to every one who will
make gentlcman's agreement to
kill sell or conilne all male birds
from then until October ist.

ed by being kept at a temperature OF
about IS degrees for s or 10 hours.
During this period the cream should
be stirred frequently.
Sometimes cream foams when we
feel that the butter should be coming.
This is almost exasperating at times.
The cause is probably one OF the fol.
lowing three First, the cream may
be too thin. The suspended fat glob
ules are too widely scattered to be
easily struck together and make to
stick. The cream should contain from
rs to 80 per cent OF butter fat, which,
by the way, is much thicker than the
average farm cream. Second. the
cream may be too cold. In winter the
cream should ordinarily be about 90
to So degrees to get the best results
Higher temperatures are liable to
make the butter too oily.
Buttermaking without a dairy Their
mometer is the worst sort OF guess
work. This simple instrument can be
had for 20 cents at almost any drug
store.
Third. butter fat is composed OF sew

proportion OF softer fats. but when the

An interesting comparison between
the United States In 1904 and In 1912
has just been complied by the depart
ment Of agriculture through It's Office
OF public roads showing the tremen-
dous growth that has taken place In
the movement for better highways
within the last eight years.
In 1904 the total expenditures on all
public roads In the United States was
s7s.77l.617. but in 1912 the expendi-
lures for this purpose amounted to
$i64 ,232,365, The expenditure per
mile OF public roads In the United
States for 1904 was s3707. but the ex-
penditures per mile for the year 1919
had doubled. amounting to S7465. The
expenditure per inhabitsnt In 1904
was s1O6. but in 1912 II amounted to
sl.7s
The greatest progress In road build
ing has been made In the states
which contribute from the state treas
uries toward the construction OF state
aid or trunk-line roads. In 1904 there
we're IS states that contributed out

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
Drags are often constructed OF
planks instead of logs. The plank
should be strengthened along the mid
die line by 2x6-inch strip. A TRAN
gular strip may be used under the
lower edge OF the blade to give It the
proper cutting slope.
The successful operation of the drag
involves two principles, which when
thoroughly understood and intelligent
ly applied make road working with
this implement ve.y simple The first
concerns the length and position of
the hitch. while the second deals with
the position OF the driver on the drag
For ordinary purposes the snatch link
or clevis should be fastened far
enough toward the blade end OF the
chain to force the unloaded drag to
follow the team at an angle OF IS
degrees. This will cause the earth to
move along the face OF the drag
smoothly and will give comparatively
light draft to the team. provided the
driver rides in the line OF draft
II small weeds are to be cut or a

doubletree should be attached rather
close to the ditch end OF the drag.
The drag will now move nearly ditch
end foremost. and the driver should
stand with one foot on the extreme
forward end OF the front slab. This
will swing the drag back to the prop
er angle and will cause the blade to
pillow This hitch requires slow and
careful driving in order TO prevent the

First year wheat with clover sowp in

with cowpeas sown between rows at

oats with clover Fourth year, clover
The first crop OF clover is TO be cut
and left on the ground. and the second
crop cut for seed
First year, corn or tobacco; second
year. soy beans or cowpeas: third
year wheat; fourth year, clover. Only
the seeds OF the clover. peas. or beans
are TO be sold. two-year rotation OF

can be followed and the clover crop

The great amount of good being done by
the Infant Welfare Station OF the Gospel
Mission, established in connection with
the free dispensary last April. is related
in a history of the mission just pub
lished. At this station a stan of ply
sicisns care for infants. educate mothers
in the care of them, and dispense milk
free at certain hours of the day. The
need for such an institution in the neigh

only by those familiar with the destitute
class that gather there for aid, says the
history.
Another feature of the work being done
by the Gospel Mission. for the extremely
poor Of Washington, is the maintenance
Of a Penny Lunch Room. This establish
