Show Called Off

Chicago, Nov -Disinfecting at
the Chicago union stockyards, which
suspended business on account of the
hoof and mouth disease, continues in
the expectation that the place would
be in a thoroughly sanitary condition
by Nov. IA.
Dr. o. Il. Dyson, state veterinarian,
said that although the quarantine had
been ordered to run until November
10, it would be lifted before that time
if it were shown that the yards were
in a fit condition. Every confidence
that the disease is we'll under control
here was expressed after it was found
that only a few more suspected cattle
have developed cases.
The new cases were among prize
tional dairy show here. About 80 of
the 800 prize bulls and COWS were con
demned, but were not killed. The
owners, who value the cattle at sew
eral million dollars, appealed to the
department of agriculture at Wash
ington that special efforts be made to
save the stock. A plan was devised to
isolate the infected stock and subject
it to special treatment for experiment
tai purposes.
Trace Every Shipment.
With the federal quarantine against
the foot and mouth disease covering
practically every suspected cattle
market, officials of the bureau of an
imal industry have organized a force
of inspectors to trace every shipment
of cattle made from the infected area
during the last two months.

CHARCOAL FOR SWINE
0hc oi Chcapos, ard Best Pre-
vcative of Diseases.
Missouri Writer Gives in Detail His
Method of Using Timber Covered
With iron Covers TO Secure
Slow Burning OF Heap.

Charcoal is one of the cheapest OF
hogs. Ii is especially valuable in win
ter. whether the animals are in the
fattouing pens or in the woods lot.
Charcoal can bh bought. but this
takes away its cEeapncss. Ii can be
burned ON the farm. and the burning
takes but very little time or labor.
Green or dry timber, corn cobs or
heavy brush can be turned into char
coal.
The method have used for a good
many years is very simple. Along in
the fall and winter, when | need more
charcoal for the hogs. | dig a trench
somewhere between s and 10 feet in
length | make it about three feet
wide aud about as deep as ii is wide,
says n Missouri writer in the Farm
Progress. II possible. | barn the
charcoal in the woods lot near the
timber that am using as this saves
the time and trouble of hauling the
/ wood.
Pile the trench full of wood. putting
in enough dry timber to start 1t
! blazing well. Arrange the timber so
! you can start the fire near the center
OF the trench and at the bottom of the
heap. so the fire will spread upwards
7 and To either side through the logs.
Let it blaze pretty strongly. and al
/ low enough headway to reach all
parts of the heap. | want every stick
in the pile to be ablaZe before | pro
coed with the nest step.
/ use big sheets of iron to cover over
the trench after it is thoroughly
abiaze. Several years ago ! picked
up three or four old scraper bot
toms, thick, heavy iron plates about
faTty-eight inches in width. | use
/ these TO cover the trench. laying
them edge to edge, and stopping the
places where they overlap. with wet
clay. This keeps all the heat in, and
the process of slow burning can go
on underneath them. A little gaseous
smoke and some of the heat escapes,
but most of it remains under the
plates.
let this iron-lidded pit stand for q
dav or two before removing the
plates. hardly ever fail to find about
a waron-bed full of fine charcoc'
when | open it.
The use of the sheet iron plates
seems TO smother the fire just enough
TO keep it from burning so freely as
10 destroy all the wood fiber. and YET
gives IL enough lecway to permit d
slow combustion. OF course. if the
pit is opened too soon the blaze will
leap up again. and all the work will
be Tor nothing.
In turning corn cobs into charcoal
follow about the same method as
when turning timber into Goals. They
are placed in the pit, started to blaz
ing, and then checked by being sealed
up under the sheet iron. They chaI
in about the same thine as timber.
As a mineral element in hog rations
charcoal is hard to beat. II is espe
cially valuable In stimulating the ap
petite. and in freeing the intestinal
tracts of the animals from various
distur Dances.

DEFINITE PERIODS TO PRUNE
Popular Subject for Individual Dis
putss as Practically Every Month
Has Its Advocates.

The best time to prune trees has al
ways been popular subject for in
dlvidual dispute. Practically every
month in the year has its advocates.
This fact indicates that there may be
some truth in the old loose-jointed
rule that the time to prune is when
the saw is sharp. At any rate, We
may iHfer that under certain condi-
tions. pruning may be safely done at
any time OF the year. However, it Is
beet always. even in the care Of the
home orchard, to have two definite
periods during the year in which TO
prune: once during the dormant sea
son, from November to April. and
once in the height of the growing
season, along in June.
Both winter and summer pruning
have their advocates, but the object
20 be gained in pruning really should
be the determining factor, as the ef-
fects of the two is almost opposite.
Winter pruning tends To check the
growth Of fruit buds. and encourages
wood growth. including the forma-
tion of water sprouts, On 'he other
hand summer pruning promotes the
formation of fruit buds. and checks
wood growth. Sometimes these results
are very marked, but usually are not
cousricuog: enough to attract atten-
tion Of the grower.
There is always much more time
in the winter to do the work-an
important consideration en- the gen.
erai farm. The men also usually do
the prr sing better. and the brush
can be disposed of more easily. There
is also time 10 paint over and care
for the wounds caused by the prun-
ing. But in early summer the wounds
heal better. it is much easier to de-
tect diseased or dead branches, and
same waste growth may be saved
The physiological effect on the tree
may also be much more satisfactory
However, il is not so much a Ques-
tion of when to prune in most of our
smaller orchards as it is the one of
getting it done at all. While in many
cases summer pruning would pDve
advantageous, yet the problem is to
get the orchard owner TO first see
the advantage of pruning even dur
ing the idle winter period, before he
can be expected to spend many of the
busy summer hours at this work.
