sTUBBCE AFTER HARVESTING
That VIII Thoroughly Stir
Surface of Soil viii Prevent
Loss Of Moisture.

SBy ALVIN 'REYSER, Arronomist. Colo
rado Experiment StationD
Land in growing small grain is well
shaded. This shading. with the pro
lection furnished by the crop from
winds, amounts in practice to a very
effectual mulch so that loss of water
from the soil by direct evaporation is
almost reduced to minimum.
The only loss is the amount take.
UP by the plants. When grain is har-
vested the soil is left in condition to
lose water from two sources. First
and most important is the loss of water
through the growth of weeds; second.
on the heavier soils there is some loss
by evaporation from the surface which
causes contraction of the soil followed
by more or less severe cracking. This
permits the air to penetrate farther
and thus dry out the soil to a consid-
cradle depth. Weeds, however, are
usually the most severe source of loss
at this period.
To check the losses which occur from
these causes II Is only necessary to
stir the surface of the land with a disk
harrow, double disking by tapping half,
or the use OF some OF the heavier
spring-tooth harrows or cultivators.
Anything, in fact. which will thoroughly
stir the surface and kill the weeds will
effect the purpose. These processes
not only kill the weeds and prevent
cracking but they also protect the tilth
OF the soil so that plowing can be done
more Ieisurely with the soil in better
physical condition.

SOME LITTLE PIG TROUBLES
Do Not Feed Dirty, Spoiled or Sour
Feed-Good Remedy for Ricketts,
isolate Sick Hogs.

II your little pigs are troubled with
scours change the diet of the SOW. Do
not feed dirty, spoiled or sour feed.
Thoroughly cook all meat scraps.
If hard, bony enlargements form on
the hook joints of your small pigs. the
chances are that they have ricketts,.
Introduce some new blood into the
herd and feed your pigs per each 100
pounds weight a mixture of calcium
phosphate pulverized, nux vomica two
ounces, artificial carlsbad salts ten
ounces.
For worms give five grains calomel
and ten grains santonin per each 100
pounds, followed in about six hours by
a bran mash. or give ten grains san
tonin and 20 grains areca nut after a
24-hour fast.
Follow some of your hogs to the
packing house and see them inspected
1t will pay In case they are tubercular
Use plenty of whitewash around the
pens.
Isolate all sick hogs. Burn all dead
ones.

Heavy Pasturing Condemned.

Heavy pasturing OF alfalfa is not
advised The number OF animals per
acre should be SO regulated that two
or three small cuttings OF hay may
be taken from the field. This is nee
essary to insure tender green growth
for grazing. When little buds begin to
shoot at the base of the stalk the
alfalfa should be cut. In a very few
days a fresh new growth makes its
appearance. Overpasturing. without
occasional cutting. also tends to in
jure the crowns of the plant and even
tually destroys the stand.

US dairymen is through lack of
knowledge and a wrong idea of what
we are about.
The feeder should waste very little
effort in trying to feed fat into milk,
for every such attempt has resulted
doubtfully. The amount of fat in the
milk is a matter of individuality and
breed more than of feed.
To induce the greatest possible milk
flow in heifers, their calves should be
removed from them the first week
after calving.
All milk should be thoroughly aerat-
ed before 1t is set away or sent
away.
Some of the reasons why cream re.
fuses TO churn may be found in most
feed, impure water. lack of salt or al
lowing the cream to become too sour
before churning.
Where butter is brine salted the
butter maker it rarely bothered with
mottled butter.
If the man who causes two blades
of grass to grow where one grew
before is to be called blessed the
same thing should be said of the man
who improves his dairy until it pro-
duces twice as much butter as it did
before he began with 1t.

METHODS OF FILLING slLos
Careful Tramping and LeveIins, To.
oether With Other Essential
Features, Are Important.

(By w. e. MARKEY, Wisconsin Expert
ment Station)
Haphazard methods of filling silos
have spoiled many thousand tons of
good corn and often given silage q
"black eye" Careful tramping and
leveling, together with other essential
features in filling the silo are i'm.
portant.
Corn makes the best silage when the
majority of the ears are dented, or
just beginning to glaze. If corn is put
into the silo before this stage of ma.
turity is reached, the silage becomes
very sour or acid, and is apt to have a
low feeding value.
When corn becomes dry from being
frosted or allowed to get ripe, it will
make good silage if water is added at
filling time. No definite rule can be
given as to the right amount of water
to add, but the aim should be to make
the moisture content equal to that OF
green corn.
1t is very essential that the cut corn
be thoroughly snixed after it is elevat
ed or blown into the silo. If this is not
done, the heavier portions will fall in
one place and cause the silage to settle
unevenly, resulting in much loss. due
to spelling.
During the process of filling. the cut
material should be kept slightly higher
at the edges than in the center, and
we'll tramped close to the sides where
| friction prevents it from settling. II
| is not necessary to tramp in the cen
| ter. OF the silo, for the weight of the
silage there is sufficient to insure
thorough packing. Silos that are deeT
and of large diameter require less
| tramping than those of smaller dimen
sions.

CARING FOR FLOCK OF DUCKS
Fowls Do Better II. Given Same Rs.

TO pasture, mark 1t for the butcher:
we want vigor in the breeding stock.
Ducks may be housed for laying
early in October. Do not put over 20
ducks in pen together; they pile up
at feeding time. or If scared. and are
apt to get injured in large flock.
A duck fed for eggs in October
should lay in six weeks. A good feed
is made by taking equal parts of corn.
