INSECT REMEDIES.

The following suggestions from tho
Connecticut agricultural experiment
station are not new, but timely:
The rose chafer may be somewhat
controlled on the grape vines by spray
ing them with five pounds Of arsenate
Of lead to fifty gallons Of water. to
which pound Of glucose or two
quarts Of molasses have been added.
Squash bugs are very difficult to
control except by crushing their eggs
on the leaves and placing shingles
around the plant under which they
will hide and cal afterward be picked
and thrown into oil.
"Onion maggOts are nearly impossl-
BILE to control except by crop rotation.
"Cutworms are almost sure to ap-
pear. Poison them with bait made
up of twenty-five pounds of wheat
bran. one pound of paris green. two
quarts Of cheap mOlasses. Scatter
this bait around the plants w be pro
tected.
Potato beetles and flea beetles can
be best controlled by spraying with
arsenate of lead. together with Dor
deaux mixture. using arsenate of lead
three pounds of the paste form or one
and half pounds of the dry form tt
ffty gallons of water"

SOME SUGGESTIONS
FOR swine GROWING

Two essentials in successful swine
keeping are good management and
good feed, writes q correspondent Of
the National Stockman. Keep the herd
built up by using and keeping the best
old sows and boars. OF course We can
not keep the same sows all the time.
Two ntters year are raised from part
Of the sows, selecting from the fall lit
tiers the best ones for future brood
sows. None are kept except those that
have good heads and ears, good heart
girth and deep, long bodies, we'll arched
backs and stand up well on the feet.
Bears are kept in pastures away from
the sows. They have a range Of clover
and timothy pasture. We feed them
such food as is raised on the farm
ground oats and wheat-with tankage
and a little oilmeal added. We do not
feed much corn. This makes them
strong and vigorous. At breeding time
a record Of every sow bred is kept so
as to tell when she will farrow.
After narrowing we feed the same
kind Of feed as the sow has been used
to getting. but not so much or as rich
q feed at first. AS soon as the pigs
get old enough to eat we make place
for them where they can eat by them
The Kendrick gazette. [volume] (Kendrick, Idaho) 1892-1968, 1915-10-29

selves. giving them some milk at first
to get them started, adding a little
shorts as they get older.
Some farmers are deceiving them
selves when they think that hogs are
fitted by nature to subsist entirely on
waste products. They do their best on
q clean, we'll balanced ration. There
are, however, some kinds OF waste
products-such as apple and potato
Feelings, table scraps. etc.-that can be
utilized to good advantage. Corn stands
ut the head Of hog rations because the
cheapest and best feed available. Feeds
rich in protein should be fed with it.
for corn contains an excess of carbo-
hydrate. Skimmilk and grass. espe-
cially the clovers, are excellent sources
Of protein. The young growing pig
needs proportionately more heterogeneous
food than the mature hog. When hogs
reach the fattening stage corn can be
fed almost exclusively. Clean waste
scraps of fruit and vegetables may be
fed with the foregoing feeds. but it
should be borne in mind that the d.
gestive apparatus Of no animal Is fit
ted to assimilate soapsuds and other
chemicals Of a like nature. which are
sometimes thought by the poorly in
formed to be excellent hog feed.

Brewers Grains as Pig Feed.

When fresh brewers grains can be
obtained at reasonable price they
may be safely and economically fed to
growing pigs during the first two
thirds Of the growing period, and brood
sows will also thrive on them when fed
in reasonable quantities and with the
proper mixtures. A very satisfactory
way to feed the grains would be to use
them for about one-third Of the ration.
the other two-thirds being composed of
wheat middlings. barley and cornmeal
in varying proportions. according to
the age of the pigs and season Of the
year

POISON FOR H0PPERS.
Bran Mash, With Paris Green, Has
Been Found Effective.

Bran Mash, With Paris Green, Has
Been Found Effective.
GEORGE A. Dean, Kansas station.l
Conditions last fall were very favor
able for the female grasshopper to lay
eggs. and many Of their eggs passed
through the winter safely. From the
large number Of grasshoppers Matched
this spring considerable damage to
farm and garden crops is probable.
In the last two years the poisoned
bran mash favored with fruit juice
had been thoroughly tested in this
state. as well as in other states and
even foreign countries, and found ef-
fective. 1t is highly recommended as
the most practical method of control.
The bran mash is made Of bran, twen-
ty pounds; paris green, one pound;
strip, two quarts; lemons, three; wa
ter, three and one-half gallons.
In preparing the bran mash the bran
and paris green dry are thoroughly
mixed in washtub. The juice of the
oranges or lemons is squeezed into the
water and the remaining pulp and the
peel are chopped to fine bits and added
to the water. The strip is put into the
water, and bran and the poison are wet
with the mixture, which is stirred at
the same time SO as to dampen the
mash thoroughly.
The damp mash or bait should be
sown broadcast in the infected areas
early in the morning, or about the time
when the grasshoppers are beginning
to move about from their nights rest
1t should be scattered in such a man.

For Cucumber Buus,

William Moore. Minnesota station.l
A concentrated nicotine solution. of
which there are several brands on the
market. properly applied, is fatal to
the larvae Of the cucumber beetle,
which sometimes does a large amount
Of damage to cucumbers whether in
the cold frame or in the field. One
teaspoonful Of a 40 per cent solution
Of nicotine to gallon Of water is
enough.
The gardener should look for the lar
vac of the beetle just at the surface
of the soil. When he discovers them
he should pour his nicotine solution
on carefully with narrow half pint
cup, being sure to let it run down all
sides Of the stalk.
Fighting the larvae of the cucumber
beetle is better than fighting the adult
beetle itself, as the adults work chief
ly on the leaves and do not get at the
vital parts Of the plant.

Binder Trouble.

I'M. A. r. Kelley Missouri station.l
The self binder probably receives
more abuse and greater neglect than
any other machine on the farm. While
its life is measured in years, its use
fulness is counted in days. The average
life Of binder is Eve years. During
this period it is used total of ap-
proximately 70 to 100 days. BY pro-
viding adequate shelter for 1t and CIV
ing it proper care Its life can be In
creased and the repair bill reduced.
One of the first things to do in get
ting the binder ready for work is to
see that the guards are in line. Sickle
sections and ledger plates which are
badly nicked should be replaced with
new ones. Adjust the clips so that the
sickle Is held firmly and gives true
shearhg cut. The lost motion in the
pitman and connections should be
taken up and the sickle made to reg
lister. If it is necessary to take the
binder attachments apart, much trou.

have not been previously marked. II
the knife is occasionally sharpened and
kept in good condition it will relieve the
strain and wear on the knotter parts.
Oil should be used little at a time
but at frequent intervals. Differen,
parts of a binder require different
amounts of fabrication. 1t is not nee
essary to give the binder frame BATH
In oil and let the bearings oil them
selves by process of absorption. This
only aids in accumulation of dust and
grit, which soon work into the bear

70 Conserve II and Transmit II Duty
to Posterity.

TO pOStoTitys
In presenting the last annual report
of the Wisconsin agricultural expert
ment station Dean FL. l.. Russell draws
attention first to the study Of the foun-
dation of all agriculture, the soil, In the
following words:
The soil is the great fundamental as
set in our national wealth. Out Of 1t
come life and sustenance for the whole
world Of nature and mankind. Former
ly it was customary to look upon 1t
merely as mass Of inert particles, but
we know that it is composed Of the
most complex materials, and in place
of being dead and inert it is pulsing
with myriad forms of life. These liv-
ing organisms act and react not only
on each other. but on the complex soil
particles with which they come In con-
tact.
The processes Of soil formation are
continually in the making. Weather
ing is slowly but constantly releasing
new plant food, while at the same time
the processes of depletion. erosion,
teaching and waste are lessening the
value Of this asset.
To conserve this bank account and
to transmit it unimpaired to future
generations Is duty which the human
race owes to posterity; but, as with
nearly all Of our natural resources. man
has wasted more than he has used. In
earlier years when knowledge did not
exist or was imperfectly appreciated
wanton practices led to rapid depletion
or exhaustion. Every virgin area that
has been opened up for settlement by
man has had its pioneer generation Of
soil miners, but If future human life is
to receive adequate support from the
soil sooner or later the soil tiller must
quit robbing the land and feed his soil
as he feeds his focks.
Science has now shown In no unmis-
taxable terms that as the chain is no
stronger than it's weakest link. SO the
soil is no richer than its content of its
most indispensable element. If depict
ed Of its potash or phosphorus, whether
by age long teaching or more rapid
robbery by careless crop production
matters little. The effect Is the same.
Therefore the fundamental problem Is
to know how to manage our soils SO
that not only will they bear fruit, but
while doing SO they will also retain
their original fertility.

Water the horses when they
are cool and before giving feed.
There will be no cases of
thumps among the pigs if they

If you do not think oats are
good for lambs just watch the lit

If your horse rubs his tail
against anything he can reach
and you are sure he has no lice
it is a pretty sure sign that he
has worms.
