UNNECESSARY LOSS
IN MANURE HEAPS
Escape Of Nitrogen Through
Heating Where Piles Are
Deep Is Considerable.

City manure can be bought moro
cheaply in some seasons of the year
than in others. 1t is common practice
to throw the carloads Of manure in
large piles to wait for use later on.
The chief losses come through heat.
ing and teaching when manure is left
exposed. The amount of loss depends
upon the conditions under which the
manure is kept.
Heaps may be made 30 deep that
there 10 relatively small loss from
teaching. but in such case the escape
Of nitrogen through heating is very
great. Under average barnyard con-
ditions loss from rs to so per cent

posed for q few months.
Even at the best, when manure IL
kept under q roof and IL hard packed
and il supplied with the right amount
Of moisture to prevent heating, the
loss Is supposed to be 10 per cent.

ERADICATE INSECTS

Pests Live on Production of Skin
and Fragments of Feathers
Recipe for Powder.

4 It does not take long for lice to give
b lock of hens something to think
Gbout besides laying eggs. The or
spring from a single pair of lice will in
eight weeks amount to $4,000.
These pests live on the production
of the skin and fragments Of feathers.
1t is not so much what they get as
nourishment from the fowl that hurts,
as the violent itching and pain they
cause. They spread rapidly as they
breed. The lice from one hen may
spread through the entire flock. Lice
breed most rapidly in poorly venti-
lated quarters and on poorly fed. weak
stock. The bird that looks sickly Is
the one most likely to be infested.
Provide the flock with dust bath
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

GREAT FACTOR IN SPRAYING
ThorouQhness Of Work Is Of Utmost
lmportance-Treatm Given
Different Trees in Ohio.

(By PROF. v. II. DAVIS. Ohio Expert
ment Station)
II there is one thing above another
that makes for successful results in
spraying. 1t is thoroughness, and in all
of our spraying work we try to en-
phasize this factor. All young trees
are given two sprayings during the
season-the dormant spray Of lime
and sulphur and a summer spray of
the same material about the time the
blossoms would be falling, were there
any present.
Bearing trees of all kinds OF fruit re-
ceive the dormant spray of lime-sul-
phur. 1-8 or ITO. We consider this the
most important spraying of the season
regardless Of the presence of the
scale.
Apples receive. summer spray of
lime-sulphur.. 1870. plus three pounds
arsenate of lead as the blossoms drop,
and another spraying with bordeaux.
3-4-50. plus arsenate of lead about July
one or eight or nine weeks after the
blossoms drop. In seasons favorable

for the development Of the bitter rot,
blotch and Jonathan spot, the third
spraying is repeated two or three
weeks later
Cherries receive a spray Of lime and
sulphur, $50 plus three pounds arse
rate just as the buds are showing the
white and again just as the husks are
loosening. About two weeks later a
spray Of self.boiled lime-sulphur is
given the sweet cherries to prevent
the soft rot.
Peaches receive a spray of arsenate
Of lead, two pounds to SO gallons Of
water, Just as the little peaches are
pushing out Of the husks. Another
spray with the self-boiled lime-sulphur

ESSENTIAL TO KEEP
ALL PIGS THRIFTY
One of Most Important Things Is
to Stop Leaks and Get Rid
of the BoarderS.

A large part Of the profits in hog
raising depends on the thrift and
health of the herd. The pig that is
stunted never is SO profitable as the
one that is kept thrifty and growing.
One Of the most important problems
hog growers have to solve Is to stop
the leaks and get rid of the boarders,
lice and worms, says Farmers Mail
and Breeze. Going out of the hog bust
ness is not the remedy. 1t may pre-
vent direct losses in an occasional
year such as the past one has been,
but it will not utilize the feed grown
on the farm and keep up the soil fer
tility.
Failure to use the feeds available
to the best advantage is one Of the
biggest leaks in the hog business. 1t
is poor policy to try to raise and fat
ten hogs on pasture without grain.
The successful farmer will provide
pasture for his hogs every month in
the year If possible, and he will feed
enough grain in addition to the pas
ture to keep his breeding hogs in good
condition. The grain fed ought to
provide some growth material as we'll
as fat-forming material. Loss often is
due to a failure to recognize the fact
that the fattening period with most
hogs is but continuation Of the grow
ing period. and that the greatest diff
ference in the rations used during the
two periods should be in the amount
rather than in the kind of feed fed.
