ANIMAL FOOD IS ESSENTIAL
10 Secure Best Egg Yield PoultrymaE
Must Supply Fowls With Green
Cut Bone or Milk.

If the best egg yield is to be OBJ
tanned animal food in some form must
De supplied during the fall and winter
months. During spring and summer
fowls having range will obtain ami
NAL food in the form of bugs and
worms, but when the frosty days come
and this form of animal food can no
longer be obtained, the pOultryman
must supply this clement in the ration
by the feeding Of green cut bone, beef
scrap or milk.
If to be obtained, fresh bone from
the butcher is not only the cheapest
but the best animal protein food that
can be obtained. Bone is rich In pro,
tein, fat and minerals. It should always
be fed while fresh, especially If the
weather is at all warm, since it spoils
quickly, and the feeding OF tainted
bone is always attended with danger.
If it is impossible to obtain bone.
beef scrap will supply the hens with
the needed animal protein. Beef scrap
is a product of the packing houses,
and is the residue from tallow and
lard rendering, thoroughly cooked and
ground.
Cracklings can sometimes be pur.
chased from local butchers at a price
much less than that charged by deal
ers for commercial beef scrap. These
are Identical with beef scrap in food
clements, and it is always matter of
economy to purchase and feed them
If possible.
Milk is also an animal protein food
Milk, however, is not sufficiently rich
in protein to entirely replace bone or
beef scrap. Where milk is fed, it Is Gus
tomary to reduce the proportion OF
bone or scrap in the ration one~half.
Milk should be fed always sweet or al
ways sour, since the changing from
one to the other will likely upset the
fowls digestion.

WATCH YOUNG PIGS CLOSELY
Young Animals Take Cholera Easily
If Exposed to infect!on-Use OF
Serum Is Favored.

Cholera frequently makes its appear
ance among pigs shortly after Wean
ing time, especially where cholera ex'
listed on the premises the year previ'
Gus. Sows that have been vaccinated
and have survived an outbreak share
their immunity with the young pigs as
long as these are nursing, but when
the pigs are taken away from the sows
and this protection is no longer afford
ed, the pigs take cholera very easily
If exposed to any infection lingering
on the premises from the previous out
break.
If signs of cholera make their ap
pearance make preparations to have
the single treatment administered
without delay. From fifteen to forty
cubic centimeters of serum for each
pig will be required. The amount de
pends upon the size and condition
Of the pigs.

KILLING WHITE GRUBS
More Than $12,OOO,O00 Damage
Done to Crops by Insects.
This Years Brood Due to Be Very De.
structive In Three Years to Corn
and in Two Years to Tim
othy and Small Grains.

White grubs, wherever not con.
trolled by cultural and rotation meth
DDS, have caused millions of dollars
loss this year to corn growers in
northeastern Iowa, southern Wiscon-
sin, and northern Illinois, parts of
Minnesota, the southern part of Michi-
gan, and northern Ohio; also in north
eastern Pennsylvania, southeastern
New York, parts of Connecticut and
New Jersey. A recent survey of the
infested areas in Iowa, Wisconsin, Illi-
nois and Michigan, by government
entomologists, together with reports
received from the other infested
states, estimates the damage to be
more than $12.000,000.

section has three-year life cycle and,
unless controlled, will do some dam.
age in two years and will again be
highly destructive to corn, timothy,
potatoes and strawberries in this re-
gion in three years.
In view Of these facts the entomol-
ogists especially urge farmers in that
region to begin to apply these meas
ures this fall. The measures are of
three kinds:
% Killing the grubs Matched in
the ground by blowing and dislxing in
the fall.
CD Destroying the May beetles
while in flight.
(3) Rotations of crops which will
prevent the planting Of corn in the
third year after crop of timothy,
small grain, or on weed-covered land.
This rotation is recommended be-
cause the May beetles in two years
will lay their eggs in such land, and
the resulting white grubs unless con-
trolled will be particularly destructive
to corn or the other crops, the roots
Of which, they will attack during the
following summer.
Fall blowing next summer and fall
(1916) will be especially effective in
destroying grubs Of the 1914 or de-
utructive flight and should be upiver-
sally practiced in the grub-infested
districts.
Try to get chickens to follow plow,

For breeding ewes, roots and vege
tables are the best kind of succulent
foods, although corn ensilage may be
used with fairly good results. In feed
ing corn ensilage to breeding ewes
better results will come from feeding
it once day and allowing each eve
from 2 to 4 pounds at feed. En-
silage is not q good food for brood
mares and great care should be exer
cised in feeding it if any is fed to
