tend to make her a fowl of greater
commercial possibilities, with a
gradual development of her beauty.
Today we have the most beautiful

The Michigan Poultry Breeder ask
its readers to express their views on
the best general purpose fowl, and
one reader, a breeder of r. |. Rocks,
we quote a paragraph from his arti-
Gle. 1t reads: "There is no argu-
ment on Reds being the best breed
for the poor man or the man who
must make his poultry pay. All he
has to do with his breed is give them
a reasonable amount of care and
feed, they viii do the rest"

marvels in the way Of color, though
not so large in size until perhaps
their second year? | would just as
soon have a fall Matched chick as one
Matched in spring. Hens sit in the
fall as well as in the spring, and SO
it must be natures way. When the
hen sits she usually does so through
a desire to increase her family. Let
nature take its course.

tional forests.
For several years past the carry
ing capacity of the national forest
ranges has been slowly rising, which,
forest officers say, indicates an i'm
provement in general grazing condi-
tons and a better utilization of the
forage resources. They claim tlst
this is due mainly to the enforcen0 ut
of better methods of distributing and
handling stock.
On the lands recently acquired by
the federal government within the
Appalachian region of the east, reg
ulated grazing has been undertaken
this year on six distinct areas. The
local stock owners who had previous
ly used the land under lease from the
former owners have readily accepted
Tho change of ownership and appear
to be favorably impressed with the
methods employed by the forest ser
vice for grazing purposes. While
the number Of all animals authorized
to Craze upon these southern Appa-
lachian forests is not large, it is the
belief of the forest officers i'm charge
of them that under careful supervi-
sion the lands will support more
stock than they have in the past and
that there will be considerable inn
provement in the individual animals.

duction.

This will dissolve in about a day. One
gallon of this "stock solution" is equal
to two pounds of copper sulphate.
Always stir this solution before dip
ping any out, in order that what is
used may be full strength.
A good quick way to combine these
three substances is as follows: Put
the amount of the "stock solution" q
copper sulphate required in a barr<yI
and add enough water to make 25 GAL
Ions, or one-half barrel Put about
seven pounds of the lime paste in a
barrel and add % gallons of water,
making a thin whitewash. Pour, or
let these two run together into a third
barrel, or directly into the spray
barrel or tank, being sure to strain.
When partly run in, test with ferro-
cyanide of potash to make sure
enough lime has been used. If Paris
green, arsenate of lead, or any other
poison is to be used, make it into a
thin paste with a little water and
add it to the bordeaux mixture, which
is now ready to be used.
This chemical can be secured of any
druggist. Ten cents worth dissolved
in a pint of water will be enough for
a season. Drop very little in the
bordeaux, if a reddish brown color
appears more lime must be added. If
there is no discoloration, there is
enough lime. Ferro-cyanide of potash
is extremely poisonous, so observe
great care in it's use.
Copper Sulphate Solution
Is copper-sulphate dissolved in
water. 1t is used by some growers
to spray peach trees to prevent the
leaf curf where a spraying for scale
insects is not required. Two pounon
of copper sulphate to so gallons
water is strong enough for this pur-
pose.

BORDEAUX MIXTURE
Division of HOrficuIfure
Michigan Agricultural College

Bordeaux mixture is made of cop
per sulphate, lime and water.
These three substances are COM
bined in various proportions, depend
i'm upon the kind of plant to be
treated. For apples, pears, cherries
and plums Except japanese varieties
the preparation is usually four pounds
of copper sulphate, with about the
same amount of lime, to fifty gallons
of water Poison is added as needed
The copper sulphate ,:ill readily dis
solve in two gallons of hot water, to
which should be added enough water
to make twenty-five gallons or one
half barrel. Do not use an iron OF
tin vessel to dissolve this in, as the
copper sulphate will destroy it, and
besides the iron will spoil the Dor
deaux. A wooden pail is good. Stake
the lime into a thin paste and add
water to make twenty-five gallons.
Pour, or let these run together into
third barrel, and the bordeaux is
made. When it is emptied into the
spray barrel or tank, it should be
strained through a brass wire strainer
to catch any of the coarse particles.
Whenever it is necessary to use a
quantity of the mixture, it is desirable
to have the lime and the copper sui
plate in "stock solutions" A guam
tity of lime is slaked to a paste and
held so by being covered with water.
The copper sulphate, say fifty pounds,
is placed in a clean gunny sack and
suspended in a barrel Zone with wood
hoops is much to be preferred) con-

matter of fact he can raise more
grain with the same amount of labor
and expense because his soil becomes
richer every year. After he has raised
the grain the dairy cow furnishes the
best market for it that he can find
anywhere. The western farmer, the
one engaged solely in grain raising,
will sell his grain to the local buyer,
the railroad company must have its
freight charges, the wholesaler will
put the grain on the market and the
eastern farmer will buy the SAL
grain at a high price and feed it To-
his dairy stock. He makes money by
doing so as he will testify. If the
eastern dairyman can make money by
feeding this high priced grain to his
cows, does it not stand to reason that
the farmer who produced it has bet
ter opportunity for making money
than the farmer who buys the grain.
after it has passed through two or
three dealers hands.

Cement Floors For Dairy Barns

A cement floor is pretty damp bed
for mich cow. 1t is better plan
to use plank or a prepared flooring
under the cows, using cement for the
gutter and runways. Cement may be
used for about Is inches in front of
the gutter where the cows hind feet
rest, laying the plank or other flooring
flush with the cement. In case the
cows must lie on cement, use lots of
bedding.
Just as soon as a man neglects to
study the needs of the business he is
engaged in, just so soon will his
chance for success be on the decline.
This applies to the farmer as well as
the creameryman.
Many people seem to think that in
order to go into the dairy business
they must give up their grain raising
to a certain extent. Keeping a num-
Der of good dairy cows need not cause
the farmer to raise less grain. AS a

contain an excess of water, filling up
the air spaces and making the soil
cold and unfit for root growth. AS a
result the roots will grow near the
surface, where there is air and
warmth. In case of drought later in
the season, this will result seriously
because the top layer of soil, where
the roots are, will dry out and the
plant, lacking deep roots, will suffer
for the water it cannot reach. On the
other hand, plant growing in well
drained soil will develop a deep root
system little affected by changes in
weather.
An additional advantage of a deep
rooted system is that the feeder roots
have access to food supply several
feet below the surface. thus not de-
pending entirely upon the fertility of
the surface soil. Heavy rains and
spring thaws wash much plant food
into the subsoil and unless subsoil
conditions are suitable for root
growth. this fertility is lost. In this
