SOME NOTES IN SEASON

Better spend little money for gar
den tools and keep a box or two handy
where you can keep odds and ends
of bolts, burrs, staples, scrapiron, etc.
Little helps that save money and a
trip to town.
If you want good ,neighbors be one
yourself. One of the best ways to
show neighborliness is to keep your
chickens and stock at home and look
after your part of the line fence.
There is no secret about the sue

methods and works for them.
Mixing compost rough for flower
pots means without sitting it.
Roman hyacinths are best for late
potting, as they come into bloom
much earlier than the Dutch varieties.
Each bulb throws up several flower
spikes.
Fall planting is best for peonies.

THE CHRYsANTHEMUM

No flower can boast of a more aristo-
cratic ancestry than the chrysanthe-
mum. There is reason for its naughty
demeanor and often insolent express
sion. For the golden faring yellow
beauty is able to trace its lineage back
to the royal gardens of some forgotten
mikado, who admired it's forefathers
many centuries ago.
The origin of the flower as the pet
of royalty is lost in the early twilight
Of eastern history; it was probably
cultivated in the early days of Confu-
cius,, and has certainly been treasured
in the Orient from time immemorial.
The emblem and crest of the mikado
of Japan are the leaf and flower of the
chrysanthemum.
The first appearance of the flower
in Europe was probably in 1854, when
specimens found their way to the boz
tanical gardens in old Chelsea, Eng
land. These were only small yellow
things and did not arouse much en-
thusiasm. Not very much was done
with the chrysanthemum in England
until about 1885.
Method of chrysanthemu culture
given by a leading horticulturist is as
follows: To produce the best results,
the young shoots should be planted in
three-inch pots early in the spring, and
in six weeks transferred to five-inch
pots. AS soon as the plants have at
tanned a height of nine or ten inches
they should be "pinched back" that is,
an inch OF so of the center of the plant
should be pinched of. This causes
the plants to become "bushy," as it
checks the tendency of an upward.
spindly growth. If fine plants are de-
sired this pinching back process
should be repeated every two weeks
until August. The plants will by that
time have attained height of about
two feet, BY October they will have
Increased another foot in height and
each plant will have from fifteen to
thirty shoots.

TONIC FOR AILING CHICKENS
Give Hens Physic When Systems Need
Cleaning out--Give EPSON Salts
In Their Mash. .

When hens go off their feed and you
suspect that their systems need clean
ing out, give them physic. as you
would person. If it is single fowl
half teaspoonful of epson salts may
be dissolved in water and poured
down it's neck. For the flock or pen
the salts solution may be used to wet
mash.
1t won't hurt the flock to have a
physic once in two months anyway,
whether they show special signs OF
needing it or not.
For chicks under three weeks of
age half-pound of epson salts is
enough for 800 of them. Proportional
amounts should be given for older
fowls.

and alfalfa ten per cent concentrates
in the grain ration will be plenty,
but from Is to 20 per cent is needed
when the calves are on bluegrass or
timothy. The calves ought to be
ready for market by the middle OF
June and weigh around 100 pounds.
Calves to be finished as two-year-
olds should be grown more slowly.
Roughage and little grain will see
! them through their first winter, and
they should make their way on the
pasture the next summer The Sec
ond winter they should be fed hay
or silage and some grain. Give them
all the roughage they can eat. Where
there is no legume hay feed them
some oil meal along with the grain.

GOOD PLAN FOR lNBREEDING
Animals Used for Purpose Should Be
as Near Perfect as Is Possible
Watch Hogs Closely.

By DIR. r. II. WILLIAMS, Animal Hus-
bandman, Arizona Experiment Station.l
It makes difference in inbreeding
whether one is handling purebred OF
grade stock. By inbreeding we mean
the breeding together of animals of g
common blood. / would advise you tc
use animals for inbreeding that are as
nearly perfect as possible. Theoreti
cally, if you have perfect animals, the
only logical thing to do is to inbred
because it is simply impossible to Sc
cure evil results from incest with such
animals.
Perfect animals are a rarity. Ordi
narily it is wise to inbreed the off
spring on the sire where the sire is
a good registered animal and the dam
an ordinary scrub. Care should be
exercised, however, not to follow this
more than once, as inbreeding is a two
edged sword which must be handled
with the greatest care. The sire may
be bred to a second generation of his
get with good results, but this is moi
recommended.
It would not be as much inbreedine
to use sire on his granddaughter OF
brother and sister as to use sire or
his daughter, but breeders have used
both methods with good and evil re
salts.
Hogs will stand inbreeding less thar
any other kind of farm animal, and or
this account must be watched closely

For the remainder of her lactation
period she may give only small flow.
Another COW may give a fairly small
amount of rich milk during her en-
tire lactation period. The first cow
will likely be given credit by the
farmer for being very good producer,
when, as matter of fact, she may
not be nearly as profitable to keep
as the second COW. Three things are

ter1nine whether or not COW is
