cuttings is in the fall Tie into bun

is not a particularly bad weed in al
falfa unless you are going to grow
alfalfa for seed. AS it is biennial,
it disappears by cutting the alfalfa
two or three seasons. There is one
pest that must be looked after more
closely than any other and that is
dodder, which is very common in Mon
tana-grown alfalfa seed. 1t looks very
much like alfalfa seed. The average
man is not able to tell it unless he
looks very closely. The large-seeded
dQdder will go after almost any one
of the cultivated plants. This pest
sprouts from the seed the same as al
falfa, but when it once throws its
vines into the air it twines around the
alfalfa plant and sucks the life out
of it, making tangled mass. 1t pro-
duces large amount Of seed, which
may remain in the ground year after
year, much the same as mustard does.

Q. What is skim milk worth per
100 pounds for feeding hogs?
Ans. E. J. Thompson.
Skim milk to be most valuable In
swine feeding should be fed in con-
junction with grains, as corn, oats and
barley When it is used regularly in
a ration balanced at about one part OF
protein to seven parts Of carbohy'
drates skim milk is worth from Is
to Is cents per 100 pounds, according
70 the value of the feed it replaces.
Q. What size horse is in best de-
nand now?
Ans. B. H. Critch6elA
The greatest demand and the high
est prices paid are Tor horses weigh.
ing more than 1900 pounds. For
horses weighing 1900 pounds and
over with good quality and substance
satisfactory prices can be secured and
the demand at all times is good. For
horses under this weight, however, the
market is not as good and unless they
are we'll balanced and possessed OF
quality, bone and action, they drag
on the market and bring rather low
prices. There is difference OF about
500 in the average market quotations
between the 1,400 and 1900 pound
drafter or premium OF rs cents a
pound for the extra weight.
Q. Which keep best, fertile or infer
tile eggs?
Ans. H. L. Bolley.
lnfertile eggs will keep very much
longer than fertile eggs. 1t is the
death and decomposition of the germ
in the fertile egg which produces the
bad keeping qualities.
@. What is the most common weeo
seed in alfalfa?
Ans. H. l. Bolley
The most common weed seed in al
falfa is probably sweet clover. This

BAPTIST CHURCH DlssEnsIoN.
Those in East killinely Congregation Opposed to Rev. A. ]. Barrett Post Warning on Church Door.

East Killingly is agog this week over dissension in the Union Baptist church that has been brewing for long time and has now reached an acute stage. notice has been posted on the church door that no services are to be held in the church until further mo- tee. In the meantime Rev. A. J. Bar rett, the p@.stor, remains in the village willing to go on with his pastoral du- ties.
 Rev. MT. Barratt's pastorate. which mas not extended many months, has heen stormy one. He is decidedly unpopular with some of the members or his congregation, but a wholly sat- isfactory end pleasing leader to others Tn hls flock. For some months dissen- sion has been increasing in the con- gregation and has shown itself openly at times, but Rev. MT Barrett has re- mained and continued to minister to the Eeople of the village in the usual way
 At times, at least on one occasion, at a church gathering, caustic remarks against the pastor were noted and the ieeilng that has been engendered has hnllly resulted in the posting of the notice on the church door, This ac- llCn, IL IS understood, was taken after meeting of officials of the church.
 IL IS stated that when Rev. MT. Bar rett came to East Killingly an agree "oo CIllSICd lIllO Wn0r60Y a mo- lce of six months must be given by me pastor or by the congregation in case either desired to sever the mas toral relations. Following the dissen- sion that developed Rev. MT. Barrett some time since rendered his resigna- ton and at the present time he is passing through the six months period wh.eh according to the agreement re- Ieired to he feels called upon to serve.
 Supporters of the pastor were stumped for the time being following the posting Of the notice that no ser vices are to be held until further no- tice and some interesting developments are anticipated.
 Key. Mir Barratt has gained some fame as writer of hymns and within the past year has been awarded prizes II contests open to hymn writers. tuesday afternoon it was stated bv enc or those not favorable to Rev. MT. <erratt continuing as pastor that the locks on the church doors had been changed. so the indications are that those not in possession of keys will not be able to enter until the con { troTerSy is adjusted.
