EGGS FOR MATCHING

Can you look at an egg and tell If it
will hatch9 Probably not, but you
can greatly increase the Matching
pow of the egg by following these
suggestions, which are offered by W.
A. Lippincott, proefssorAND- NINA
A. Lippincott, Professor of Poulty
Husbandry in the Kansas State Ag-
ricultural College: Select eggs which
do not weigh less than two ounces,
rejecting all exceedingly large and
abnormally shaped eggs. The un
usual shaped eggs will probably hatch,
but pullets raised from such eggs will
probably lay abnormal eggs. Never
wash eggs before setting them Keep
the eggs in dry place at a temper
ature between IS and 65 degrees
turn them at least once every other
day. An egg n which the germ has
become fastened to the shell twill sell
dom hatch The germ spot is al
ways in the uppermost part of the
egg. and if the egg is not turned the
germ will stick to the shell ii evapo--
ton takes place. The eggs should DE
gathered at least twice a day unless
they are to be put into the incubator

CONTAGIOUS OPHTHALMIA

The disease is due to specific
germ, says Kimball's Dairy Farmer.
Isolate the affected animals in a dark
ened stable and feed them light, lax
alive rations. Twice daily battle the
eyes with 10 per cent solution of
boric acid applied each time with a
fresh swab of absorbent cotton. Ev-
cry other day dust the eyeballs with a
mixture of finely powdered calomel
and boric acid. Substitute iodoform
for calomel in the worst cases. After
inflammation subsidies wet the eye
ball once daily with solution of two
grains of nitrate of silver in an ounce
of distilled water, to be kept in blue
glass bottle to prevent chemical
changes. The latter treatment is for
opacity of the eyeball. Keep the
cattle off low, wet pastures. Clean
up. disinfect and whitewash the sta
bles, fences and feeding racks and
troughs.

AMONG THE CHICKENS

Keep in mind the fact that the in
herited quality of heavy laying mus
come from pedigreed breeding ant
particularly through the cock biro
that is the son, grandson, ETC., of /
line of heavy layers.
Provide the flock with dust batl
and apply the following homemade
powder: To one part of crude car
bolic acid and three parts of gasoline
add enough plaster of paris to take
up the liquid and mix thoroughly
Spread out and let dry. If it is toe
lumpy run through a sieve. Store
away i might cans. Work well into
the feathers, especially in fluff and un
der the wings Repeat in ten day:
and make thorough job of it.
To tell old hens from young one.
note that the young ones are most apt
to have brighter eyes, redder combs
and smoother legs. They never have
spurs, while old ones do, and the old
hens move about more slowly.
Hens adapt their methods of brood
ing to conditions such as temperature
size of the chickens, wet weather, etc
and the operator of brooder must
meet these conditions.
Any of our American breeds make
good setting hens, but there is nc
breed that excels all others in the
number of its broodies. AS rule, the
heaviest winter layers are the earliest
broody.
Leghorns Matched in March or April
should be laying in August, Septem-
Der, October and November.

A NEW METHOD

A report recently received by the
Department of Agriculture describ-
ed method of planting corn that has
been successfully tried out in west
ern Kansas. By this method the corn
is planted in rows twice the usual dis
lance apart while the plants are twice
as thick in the rows. The stand is
therefore the same, but as this method
seems to preserve the moisture mid
way between the rows the supply is
often sufficient to maintain the corn
in a fourishing condition during tenn
porary periods of drought, while oc-
casionally it may complete the devel-
opment of the crop, 1t was found
that by this method the yields were
around thirty bushels per acre, while
adjoining fields in which the rows
were three and one-half feet apart
the yields were only ten to twelve
bushels per acre.

FINISHING
PIGS FOR BREEDING.
PURPOSES

Pigs intended for breeding purposes
need not be crowded so rapidly as
the market hogs, but should be kept
gaining and in vigorous, thrifty con-
dition, says a bulletin on pork pro-
duction under California conditions
from the University press.
They will need alfalfa pasture, and
an additional grain ration, similar to
that fed the market hogs, only, per-
haps not SO much of it. There is an
idea prevalent in many sections that
because the market prefers US
pound pig, breeding stock need not
be larger than that. However, it has
been conclusively proven that the
closer an animal approaches maturity,
the less economical are its gains. This
means then market hog should be
of such conformation and possess
the ability to acquire sufficient finish
by the time he weighs 225 pounds SO
that he will supply the demands of the
market; yet it does not follow that
he should be through growing at that
time. If he is through growing at that
weight, his final gains will be obtained
at too high cost.
We should not lose sight of the fact
that breeding stock should be KEPT
up to the weights prescribed by their
various breed record associations
which are $50 pounds or more for
sows, and 500 or more for boars.
The following rations are suitable
for growing market pigs:
Barley 3. wheat 8, tankage l.
Barley 2, shorts l.
Barley 3, shorts |, skimmilk
Barley Is, oil meal |.
Barley, alfalfa pasture.
Barley IL, tankage |, alfalfa pas
ture.
Barley 3, shorts l, alfalfa pasture
Barley skmmilk 3, alfalfa pas
ture.
Barley 9. tankage |.
Indian corn may be substituted for
barley in any of the above ratios and
skimmilk added to almost any ra-
ton for growing pigs will improve it

GIVE ONLY BEST
FOOD TO EWES
REEOPE TAMRTNC

Ewes before lambing should receive
good, wholesome feed, which will
keep them in a laxative condition,
says the Iowa Homestead. Well cured
clover is excellent or alfalfa hay with
a small grain ration and if possible a
few roots or little silage, although
silage sometimes causes trouble with
silage sometimes causes trouble when
fed by an inexperienced person.
The grain ration most widely rec
commended is one composed of peas.
oats or bran or mixture of these and
fed at the rate of about half a pound
day up until Landing time APP
proaches, when the amount of grain
may be increased provided the ewes
have plenty of exercise.
After lambing the ewes should be
literally fed on any good succulent
feed before they are turned on past
ure, including plenty of grain and
good hay. Scotch shepherds prefer
roots, but most men in this country
feed silage About two pounds Of
clover hay and from one to two
pounds of grain will be required for
the best progress of the eve and the
lamb. The grain should consist OF
oats and bran, with little oilmeal
added. The oilmeal is particularly
necessary if you do not have silage
AS soon as the grass has made a sui
fcient growth the grain may be re
duced and shortly eliminated.

PEAS FORAGE FOR PIGS

During the trial of two consecutive
years at the North Dakota experiment
station pigs foraging off field of
peas during the months of September
and October each year required in ad-
dition two pounds of barley per 100
pounds live weight of pigs per day TO
keep them gaining as rapidly as pig,
Of the same age and size being fed
in dry lot and receiving four pounds
of barley per day per 100 pounds live
weight of pigs. This shows that the
peas made possible saving of one
half the amount of barley usually re-
quired by pigs being fed in dry lots.
The return for the peas was $40 PEI

ALFALFA FOR PASTURE

There are many known instances
where alfalfa has been used for pas
turing both horses and-cattle without
any injurious results, but as a matter
of fact there is always little danger
in pasturing cattle on alfalfa. They
should become accustomed to tn,
crop gradually, and they should never
be turned nto an alfalfa field wher
they are hungry. When cattle arc

EXPERIMENTS WITH WHEAT

According to a report OF rotation
experiments conducted by the Austria
liam government, wheat grown contin-
uously on the same land for six years
produced an average yield of loo
bushels per acre, wheat alternated an
nually with bare fallow averaged PAS
bushels, and wheat alternated annu-
ally with fodder crop averaged 26.4
bushels.

a half tons of hay per acre with two

Vermin are the greatest pests. They
will breed in one night. If You SO into
the turkey house at night when the
hen is mothering her young raise up
the turkeys wings and sprinkle some
sulphur lightly under them, writes a
correspondent of Farm and Fireside.
The hen will perspire from the heat of
all the young turkeys and that sui
phur will spread all over the little
birds and prevent. lice. Sulphur is a
good disinfectant, and this method is
much the easier way to dust your tur-
keys. If you dust the little birds twice
a week until they can dust themselves
properly vermin will be prevented.

GROW A FEW ACRES
OF EARLY CORN
FOR ECONOMY

The chances are that corn will be
high-priced next July and Auguts, be-
1ieves c. c. Cunningham, assistant in
cooperative experiments in the Kan
sas State Agricultural College. He
. believes that many farmers where the
corn crop was short in 1914 will find
the planting of few acres of early
corn profitable this season.
Growing quick maturing variety
of corn for early feed is sometimes a
good practice. The farmer who is out
of grain and has to buy high-priced
corn may cut down expenses by grow
ing few acres of early corn. An
early variety planted as soon as sea-
sonable conditions will permit will
produce feeding corn from three to
FIVE weeks before the heavy yielding
varieties of corn are ready to feed.
The larger growing, later maturing
varieties of corn normally grown
usually outyield TIE small growing
quick maturing ones because OF the
longer growing period of the former
varieties. A considerable increase
in yield must be obtained to make the
growing of early corn under these
conditions more profitable than plant
ing the entire corn acreage to the
varieties usually grown.
Ordinarily in eastern Kansas a
standard variety of Kansas corn.
which natures in lis to Us days,
will outyield ninety-fve day corn
ten or more bushels per acre, and on
the average the growing of the larger
varieties pays best because of the
larger yield. 1t is only when the July
or August price of corn is abnormally
high and the following crop large,
causing a decided decrease in price,
that the early corn planting practice
is recommended.
The usual practice in obtaining seed
of early corn is to get it from the
northern States. Early corn has to
be grown in northern States because
of the low annual rainfall. Acclima-
ted varieties of corn grown in west
ern Kansas are hardy and vigorous
CROWN. The indications are that these
EARLY varieties of western Kansas
corn are better suited to eastern Kan
sas conditions than varieties similar
in size and maturity from further
north.
