SHORT KANSAS ITEMS.

Tt is possible, but hardly probable, that the serious outbreak of foot and mouth disease, which caused millions of dollars of loss to cattlemen of many Northern states,will attack Arkansas live stock This is the statement of Dr. J. E. Gibson, veterinary field agent of the Bureau of Animal Indus try of the United States Department of Agriculture. Dr. Gibson based his assertion on the str1ngency of Arkan- sas laws governing the importation of cattle and also because very few cattle are shipped into Arkansas from those states affected by the recent foot and mouth" plague. "The report from Kansas was only scare," said Dr. Gibson. "The animals in the nelghborhood of Wichita were found to be suffering from an aggravated form of comatitis.''

HINTS ON SHIPPING
EGGS FOR MATCHING
Neat, Attractive Package Will
Please CuStomerS-BaSket
Is Recommended.

Time now to prepare for the ship
ping season and it is folly to wait until
orders come in before having every
thing ready.
The most important thing is to sat
isfy your customers by giving them
exactly what you advertise to sell, or
even doing little better.
II eggs are broken in transit do not
hesitate to replace them the day you
receive the complaint from your GUS
toner
Give everybody a square deal, and
remember that satisfied customer is
always customer.
A neat, attractive package may cost
triie more than slovenly one, but
it will please your customers and adj
vertise your egg business, because
customers very often judge a mans
business by first impressions of pack
age and contents when they are re-
ceived.
The best package for shipping eggs
is a basket, although many breeders
do not use them.
The basket should hold one or two
settings, and these can be got for two
cents from any manufacturer. A thick
layer Of excelsior should cover the
bottom and all eggs should be
wrapper in soft paper and so packed
with fine excelsior that they will not
touch one another.
When the eggs are packed, put an
other layer Of excelsior over the top
and cover with a thin board.
Next to the basket, is the egg box,
made for holding 13 or Is eggs. This
is arranged with cardboard compart-
ments, with room for excelsior or other
packing at top or bottom.
This box is provided with a wire
handle, and the cover slides into
grooves which may then be screened
or tackled down with small nails.
Never ship a package that is not
screwed or nailed down, because this
will save eggs from being filched by
curious persons who can open the
package in transit.
Never ship u 5oiled egg. Nothing so
disgusts a customer as to receive &
setting of eggs which are dirty and
Of poor shape.
Eggs should be selected so that each
setting will be uniform in size, shape
and color when possible.
When the package is ready to ship,
place on 1t a label containing your ad-
dress and the address of the customer,
plainly written. Never fail to put your
name on anything that will help to adj
vertise your business.

During the season when the flock is
confined to a dry ration the feed
should be changed as often as pos
sible. The animals will then eat their
ration with a greater relish and q
more favorable development will re-
suit, writes Sherley Cornell Of Ohio in
Farm Progress. In the case of preg-
nant ewes the change will be benefi-
cial to the unborn progeny
1t is a reasonable certainty that all
kinds of live stock require a wide
range of digestible ingredients for the
building up and maintaining of a
strong and active system. There is no
one sort Of food, although it may be
capable of supplying the needs of the
body, that will keep the system in an
active working condition. 1t is one Of
the Interchangeable laws Of nature that
an animal must have variety of food
and If We disobey the law in caring
for our stock we will bring great
losses upon ourselves.
Sheep are light feeders and grass is
their natural and most acceptable
food. Dry feed will sustain life and,
If properly given, promote the taking
on of flesh, but the sheep do not eat
it with the relish that they do green
forage. A frequent change of the daily
fare will mean added dollars of profit
to the owner. The entire system will

WINTERING BEES
IN THE OPEN AIR
Construction of Summer and
Winter Chaff Hives Over
comes Objections.
CBy F. G HERMAN.)

If the beekeeper tries to winter bees
on the summer stands, in any form of
a hive other than chaff or double
walled hive, it is my opinion that he
will lose more in the value of bees
than the extra expense he would be at
in making chaR hives Of some kind.
l think that some sort of hive that
could be useI for summer advantage
should be used. This thing Of having
outside winter cases to set over the
hives is decidedly disadvantage in
many ways.
When winter is over they cannot be
used about the apiary during the sum-
mer to any advantage whatever, but
the beekeeper must have a house or
some other place provided for them to
keep them from the weather or they
will be warped and weather-beaten
and will last but a few years. Hence,
the construction Of a summer and win
ter chaff hive certainly overcomes
many Of these objections.
After years of experience with chaff
hives used in connection with saw
dust cushions over the top of the
broodchamber, l have become con-
vinced that there is nothing better
along the line of hives for wintering
bees on the summer stands than this.
l winter my bees on the summer
stands with very little loss. They have
plenty of good store-plenty of young
bees and properly packed believe
in late brood rearing, so that the hives
will be full of young bees at the be-
ginning of the winter-at least, this is
my plan, and my bees winter nicely.
With too small an entrance in
damp climate you will be sure to have
moldy combs and more than the proper
amount of dead bees. The trouble be-
comes aggravated in the course of the
winter by the clogging of the entrance
with dead bees.
During heavy storms In winter 1t
frequently happens that hives are en-
tirely buried in snow. While the snow
is light and porous, air will penetrate
it and reach the entrances of the hives,
but should the snow become crusty or
ice form at the entrance the bees
would be in danger Of suffocation.
It is we'll to have all hives facing
southwark, so the sun can shine on
the entrance of the hives and keep
them free from ice.
After heavy fall of snow we al
ways sweep In front of the hives, leav-
ing the snow banked around the other
three sides, as it will do no harm
there, but will help keep off prevailing
winds.
The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1915-05-14

be kept in such state Of activity that
the feed will be utilized in the making
Of flesh and wool and there will be
no waste.
With the wide range Of roughage
that can be grown upon the farm no
keeper can have a reasonable excuse
for not supplying his flock with a fire.
quent change of feed. 1t Is not neces-
sary that several different rations be
compounded and fed alternately, but
rather the feeding of a variety each
day. Any program Of rotation is un-
necessary, but vary the bill Of fare.
If clover hay is given in the morning,
feed oat straw at noon and corn stover
at night. This may be reversed from
time to time and other things substi-
tuted. Do not feed an abundance OF
any one thing, even though it Is rel
ished and greedily consumed by the
flock.
1t is not so important that the grain
ration be varied, but the wider the
range Of grains that go to make 1t up
the better. Especially is this true when
pregnant ewes are being fed. Grain
rations that are highly nutritious
should be fed with caution, for after
sheep have reached maturity they take
on flesh very easily, and it is not adj
visable that they carry large amount
Of surplus fat.
