From those which have returned

Breed these heifers at the age of
fifteen to twenty months to pure bred
dairy sires from cows whose records
show large profitable productions of
butterfat.
Feed one pound of grain daily for
every pound of fat produced weekly
and with this, 80 to 35 pounds of good

CUTTING OUT FREE SEEDS

Congress is going to drop the free
seed business and II is high time.
Ostensibly the sending out OF free
seeds to the constituents of congress
men was to encourage agriculture and
gardening and ON the packets OF seeds
was the request that the recipients
send to the Department of Agriculture
the results of the experiments. This
was request that probably not one
person in ten thousand complied With
and the few reports that were made
were doubtless thrown into the depart
ment waste basket.
AS a matter OF fact this free seed
business was cheap instrument in
the hands of congressman to get on
good terms with their constituents.
Almost everybody felt good in receiv-
ing packet Of poppy, raddish, lettuce
and other seeds from their represent
alive in congress. 1t made him feel
that he was not forgotten. In fact so
weak is human nature that ii a voter
was inadvertently forgotten he felt
that he was sighted, and no one likes
to be ignored Jones of Pumpkin Hol-
low may not have planted the seeds
when he got them, but 1t made him
feel good to think that his congress.
man, notwithstandn that he was
stepped to the ears in affairs of state
was thoughtful enough to send him a
packet of seeds with his compliments
And now this pull of congress
men is TO be ended. From this time
forth every man with garden will
have to buy his own seeds. And why
not? He has to buy his garden tools
and everything else that he needs,
althouh it does seem strange that
congress, while 1t is so solicitous to
encourage voters to garden and farm
did not send out free hoes, spades, and
other tools, along with the seeds.

E. J. IDDINGs,
Different Methods of DISCRIMINATING
Squirrels.

Squirrels.
Squirrels can be exterminated eithel
| by poisoning, smoking, or trapping
Phosphorus is the best poison. Bot
five gallons of oats in just enough
water to cover the oats nicely. Place
one-eighth of pound of PHOSPHORUS
in small cloth bag and tie the bag.
Drop the bag into the oats at the time
the oats come to a boil, stir until the
PHOSPHORUS has all dissolved then
stir in some low grade flour to take
up the water and the poison Is ready
to use. Scatter the oats around the
squirrel holes, about a tablespoonful
in place. Do not put the oats in
the holes. PHOSPHORUS is very dang
erous for stock as there is no anti
should not be kept around the build
ings as 1t soon flames when exposed
to the air.
The Bourne Squirrel Smoker, man
factured at Moscow, Idaho, by the
Bourne Mfg, Co., is a rapid method
and very thorough, If done as directed
by the company. These smokers cost
ten dollars prepaid and full directions
for using them go with every machine
They are inexpensive to operate.
Trapping is very satisfactory If done
With about one hundred
traps start ON one end of the farm
by placing atrap In every hole as far
as the traps will last. The more traps
used the faster will be the work.
The traps should be fastened to a
stake that will be tall enough to
reach above the grass and weeds.
Set the stakes just far enough from
the holes sd that the traps when set
will be In the mouth of the hole, so
that the squirrel cannot get out or in
without going over the trap. After a
few days the traps on the edge of the
farm can be moved ahead of the ones
farther in, and so on across the farm.
The easiest way to kill the neigh
,ors squirrels, and the quickest also,
s to go over ON their farms to do
he killing. PREM MOORE.

Success.

''He has achieved success who has
lived we'll, laughed often, and loved
much; who has gained the respect of
Intelligent men and the love of little
children; who has filled his niche
and accomplished his task; who has
left the world better than he found 1t
whether by an improved poppy, a per-
feet poem, or a rescued SOUL who
has never lacked appreciation Of
earth's beauty or failed to express it;

others, and given the best he had;

the alfalfa weevil, has been found at
one point in South Idaho. This in
festation is carried by railroads and
such other agents as carry the alfalfa
weevil. 1t has already destroyed q
small clover field and is spreading I'M
TO and doing damage in neighboring
alfalfa fields.
Farmers who find their clover field
damaged should communicate with
Mr.. T. Parks, Field EntomOlogist,
State House, Boise, Idaho. Methods
of control consist in blowing UP badly
infested fields and brush dragging and
cultivating fields where the pest has
just gained entrance. Such measures
if thorough can be expected to give
the weevil serious setback but not
iaXterminate 1t.
This insect is found every year in
the eastern states but Is kept I'M check
by a fcngus disease which kills the
larvae in large numbers when they be'
come abundant. Mr.. Parks is making
an effort to- introduce this disease in
to Idaho to assist in controlling the
clover leaf weevi1 here. 1t is imposr
sible to predict the success OF this
plan and until it can be tested
we need the cooperation of clover
and alfalfa growers in checking the
spread of the weevil and in using the
control measure as described above.
