SUMMER PESTS
STATE FOOD DEPARTMENT is
SUES BULLETIN ON FLIES
AND MOSQUITOES.

Vermillion, May 14.-In a bulletin
which is just being sen out to the
merchants of the state from the state
food and drug department the COM
missioner calls attention to the need
for the cleaning of premises sur
rounding food establishments in or
der to keep down the crop of flies and
mosquitoes. A feature of the article
on this subject is the recommended
ton that the town dumping grounds
of the state be cleaned or abolished
so as to remove n Of the chief
blemishes in the approach to town by
rail. 1t is pointed out that these
dumps are almost invariably located
alongside the railway and further
that vacant ground adjoining the
right of way in the towns is usually
made the resting place for all worn
out machinery and implements of the
community. All this has the effect of
giving visitors a very poor first i'm
preston as well as affording excell-
ent breeding places for flies and o
quitoes. Empty tin ans and other
discarded receptacles all serve to hold
rain water sufficient to provide nur-
series for swarms of summer insect
pests.
The bulletin also contains infor-
nation OF processes of freproofing
scenery in opera houses, the labelling
of soft drinks, sanitary standards for
bakeries, a long list OF condemned
foods and other matter of interest to
merchants and others. The list of
prosecutions shows that the depart
ment has not been idle in enforcing
the several laws with the enforce
ment of which II is charged. Among
others may be mentioned prosecu-
tions for selling adulterated vanilla
flavor, cough syrups containing NOR
phine and not labelled to show the
same, stock foods which are not prop
erly labelled. and drugs deficient in
strength. Since this list was COM
piled the inspectors have been active
in other lines also and recently no
less than five butchers have been
prosecuted for selling spoiled meat OF
for keeping an insanitary shop. Al
the season between winter and spring
some butchers seem to have beer
negligent in keeping their meats
properly cooled. The sanitary foot
law will be enforced more vigorously
this summer than ever before and !
Is not unlikely that more prosecu
tions will follow.

lars will be distributed over the STATE

ROOT CALLS CAUSE TROUBLE
No Way Of Controlling Annoyance Ex eept by Rotation of crops-corn
 and Oats Not Hurt.

Such plants as tomatoes, cucumbers and many others are often badly af. fected by what are known as nema. tode root gals These nodules. ol gals, which are more commonly found in the sandy soils. are produced by very small worms which attack the small roots Of the plant
 There is no way of controlling this trouble except by the rotation of crops. If it is possible to grow plants that are not affected by the nema. todes upon the land for about three years. it will most likely be killed out.
 Some of the plants that are not af. fected by nematodes are corn. oats and velvet beans. It is not advisable to plant any crop trat is susceptible to the nematode on ground that is badly affected. as the chances are that the crop will not be success.

The team that does the work for the farmer during the busy cropping season deserves good care. In giving his team proper attention the farmer shows a kind heart and a wise head. He thereby conserves the energy O.: the faithful animals which enables them to serve him a long time says . Missouri writer in Farm Progress.
 The work team must have good feed. Musty hay and nodded grain they will not eat unless very hungry, organs and they contain practically no nourishment. Timothy. clover or alfalfa hay should All the manager. and 1t will keep the team in good shape when fed in proper quantities. Wheat and oat straw are good enough for the horse to sleep on. but very poor for him to live on. During the work ing season the team should seldom be turned on green grass. It is too washy. and the team that works all day and tolls all night in the grass field for a ration will not do well. If one does turn on grass, the team should be provided with liberal sup ply of hay just the same.
 The best grain ration is one half corn and the other half oats. The corn gives needed strength and the oats act as laxative. Throw a pinch of salt into the feed box once each day and the horses will be kept healthy. Shoald horse have bad teeth his feed should be ground. All grain should be fed in good boxes, for leaky troughs waste much yalua- able feed

 Drinking troughs or tanks should be kept clean. They get foul very fast during the hot days of the summer. Take an old broom and wash them clean once or twice each week.
 The horse should have a comforta. ble stall in which to stand and to sleep. It should be well ventilated in the summer so the horse may eat in comfort. The stall should also be cleaned of all filth every day. Tho horse that must stand with his hind parts elevated two or three feet above his fore quarters cannot enjoy his feed.

QUALITY OF THE VEGETABLES
Largely Dependent en Amount of Moisture AvaiiabIe-Muiehine or
 cuitivatins 10 Favored.

The quality of fresh vegetables is determined by the variety, the charac- ter of the soil. the amount of moist. ure. the temperature and the degree of ripeness and freshness. It mat ters little how ideal all the conditio. 6 are. If the variety selected is of poor quality. the other conditions will not make up for it. As a general rule the varieties of vegetables most pop ular among commercial growers are Of line appearance. but of poor quality. It Is often the best looking variety that is most popular, while the varie. ties of finest quality remain untasted. people becoming prejudiced because or their appearance. says a recent station bulletin.
 There are some crops that are of vastly superior quality when grown on some kinds of soil. When raised on 8 commercial scale only those vege- tables that are best adapted to the soil should be raised Celery does best on comparatively small variety of soils. Root crops grown in sandy soils are always more smooth than those grown on the heavy soils. How. ever. these vegetables can be raised very successfully for home use in the home garden with a comparatively small amount of special care, on al- most any type of soil
 Practically all of our vegeta bles consist of over so per cent water. with some having almost s5 per cent of wa ter. The quality of fresh vegetables Is largely dependent upon this large amount of moisture. With crops such as lettuce. celery and cabbage. where the leaf parts. that contain a very high per cent of water, are eaten. it is very important to have an abun- dant supply of moisture. With insuffi- cient moisture these crops are stunt ed and have very inferior flavor. The rapid growth resulting from an abundant supply of moisture produces the very delicate leaf tissues which are characteristic of vegetables of best quality Some vegetables, such as to- matoes and melons. need a very abun- dant supply of moisture early in the season. but produce vegetables of best quality If the soil is comparatively dry during the ripening season. Soil moist ure can be conserved by frequent and continuous cultivation during the sum- mer In the sections having light soils, or soils deficient in moisture. a very satisfactory plan during dry sea sons is to cover the soil with a mulch part of the summer, instead of culti- vating.

CLOVER SEED CROP
 OF BIG IMPORTANCE
Any Field Will Prove Profitable if Hay Crop Is Properly Man.
 aged-When to Cut.

Save the clover seed this year If at all possible. Any field of clover will yield a profitable crop of seed. provid- ed the hay crop is properly managed. It has been proved beyond a question of doubt that the first crop must be harvested before the blossoms die, otherwise the seed will not form in the second crop. Begin the hay har' vest just as soon as the first blossoms commence to turn brown if you wish to secure a full crop of seed.
 Clear the hay from the ground as promptly as possible, says a writer in Indiana Farmer. If it is allowed to re- main for even a few days 1t has a tendency to partially smother the growing plants, hence reducing their vitality to such an extent that the yield of seed will be materially reduced in quantity as we'll as quality. It does not pay to jeopardize the second crop, in any manner. for seed purposes when the seed is worth Tn the neighborhood of ten dollars per bushel--a price that has prevailed for a number of years for strictly first-class clover seed. A yield of only one busbel per acre is profitable.
 Clover seed is sure to be an ex' pensive article for years to come be cause of the increasing demand that comes with better knowledge of the value of the crop for forage and fertil. ity. Arrangements should be made early with the owner of a threshins rig to thresh the clover seed as soon as it is in condition after cutting

TRACTOR OCCUPIES
 IMPORTANT PLACE
Smaller Sized Machines Solving Problem on Farm of Com
 parativfIy Few Acres.

(By E. R. GROSS. Colorado Agricultu-
 rs college.)
 There is no doubt in the mind Of the writer thst the gasoline or oil tractor should and does occupy an i'm portant place in present day agricul- ture. The smaller size tractors TOW being put out by manufacturers are reducing very materially the size of farm on which a tractor may be op- erated with profit It is quite certain that 16 to 25 horse power tractor developing S to l3 horse po~er on the draw-bar can now be operated profit ably on . 200 to 25o-acre farm. The essential requirements on the part of the farmer who will own a tractor are: That he understand his ma chine thoroughly or employ skilled nelp to operate it: that he plan care fully the work so that the tractor can be kept at work at least as much of the time as horses would be: that he have only little more power in the form of tractor and horses than he would otherwise have in the form of forses alone.
 In the tractor it is we'll to look for tractive power with the least possible weight. Heavy tractors often have a bad competing effect on the soil. The greater the bearing surface, the great CT the tractive power and the less the competing of the soil. In general there are three types of traction wheels: The ordinary wheel with prominent grouters; the drum type. large diameter and wide wheel with small or no grouters: and the creep ing type of fractions parts.
 The reliability of the tractor can best be judged by machines of it's make that have been observed in oper- ! atiop fos some time.
