TO SPREAD OR PILE MANURE
Answer to Question is Largely One Of
Location--Much Loss Sustained
by Broadcast Scattering.

CI3y ALVIN KEYSER, Colorado Expert
ment StationD
The question frequently arises,
Should manure be spread thinly over
the land in winter when it is hauled,
or should it be dumped in piles to be
scattered in the spring? The answer
to the question is largely one of loca-
ton. In great deal of Colorado ter
ritory the winters are dry, with dry,
very windy springs. Where such con-
ditions normally prevail scattering
manure broadcast on the land during
the winter means that the manure will
dry out and frequently be blown
away by the Grst heavy spring wind
storm.
Dropping in piec to be hand scat
tered later saves part of this loss.
Where snow is on the ground and
where winds are not a menace, or
where conditions permit disking the
scattered manure into the top soil,
this loss by blowing is prevented.
From the standpoint of labor, drop
ping in piles increases the labor. From
the standpoint of saving the manure
it sometimes saves an appreciable per-
centage, while broadcast scattering
would lose all of it. The farmer will
have to decide these questions for
himself in his own localities, based
upon the points above enumerated.

POOR MATCHES or INCUBATOR
Great Variety of Circumstances Are
Ascribed--keep Daily Record Of
Temperature OF Machine.

The cause of poor matches with an
incubator is a much discussed ques-
ton, which depends on grea5 variety
OF circumstances. A poor hatch is
more apt to be due to the condition of
the eggs previous to Matching than TO
incubation, although improper hand
ling of either factor will produce the
same results.
When eggs fail to hatcn, see wheth
er the breeding stock is kept under
conditions which tend to produce
strong, fertile germs in the eggs, if the
eggs have been handled properly be-
fore Incubation, and whether the con-
ditj9ns were right during incubation,
Is Judged by the time of the hatch.
A daily temperature record should
be kept of each machine. The operator
can thus compare the temperature at
which the machines have been kept,
which may prove valuable in the fll-
ture work, especially If the brooder
records can be checked back against
those of the incubator.

$3.50, 3s3 PAID IN LICENSE
Company Sends Fees to Conn
missioner Ekern.

Madison. Henry F. Tyrell, for the
Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance
company, Milwaukee, gave to Insur-
ance Commissioner Ekern a check
for S559,3S3.1S in payment for IL
cense lees for the company for the
year. The payment was made under
duress, the insurance company
threatening to withhold the license
of the company unless the fees were
paid.
This procedure was the same as in
the last four years, during which the
company has paid the fees under pro-
test. Based on the report made -
the tax commission in 1911, the com
pany's taxes would be for the present
year about 100000.
At each session an attempt has been
made to have iae state Go the com
pany justice in this matter, but the
legislature always turned a deaf ear
to the plea to put in operation the
scientific method urged by the tax
commission in it's report, or another
plan proposed for a gradual reduc-
ton to a reasonable amount. These
attempts have always failed, as the
large expenditures voted by the legis-
lature led to their holding on to

said: well, dear. are you enjoying
it?"
"Oh, yes, mamma" replied the
youngster, gleefully; do you know.

cry. This store was able to sell the
eggs to its customers for several cents
a dozen more than the prevailing
prices for other eggs. 1t Is interesting
to note, Also that the buyers became
accustomed to the stamp on the eggs
and when by accident two cases
reached the store unstamped there
was little difficulty in disposlng Of
them.
The increased profit to the farmers
through this method of marketing was
not as noticeable during the spring,
when ecgs are plentiful, as when they
were scarce. During the winter the
difference was sometimes as great as
ten cents a dozen, and when this par
ticular creamery was visited one De-
cember the farmers were receiving
40 cents a dozen for their eggs. At
this very time farmers in the nearby
village were paid 25 cents dozen.
With the increased prices the produc-
ton rose rapidly also. Before the
creamery took up the marketing of
the eggs the supply received by the
local storekeepers was hardly more
than sufficient for the local demand.
Later the creamery paid out in one
year nearly $4,000 to producers Of
eggs, nearly all of which were shipped
away. This accounts for the fact that
the local merchants, who were at first
inclined to look with disfavor upon
the innovation, soon saw that the in
creased returns to the community
meant increased profits to them even
cually.
There is no reason why a system
similar to the one just described
should not be adopted in many other
localities. Local conditions will, of
course, require certain changes, but
the fundamental principle will remain.
Fresh eggs shipped regularly in good
condition to city markets are certain
to earn greater profits for the pro-
ducers than those which are allowed
to deteriorate on the road from the
farm to the consumer. Finally the
profits from its egg business may well
make the establishment of a creamery
possible when it could not be run for
dairy products alone.
