TO PREVENT PINK BOIL ROT
Any Farmer Can Control Disease In
dependent Of His Neighbors-
Carefully Select Seed.

Pink boil rot gets its start from
planting seed that is internally in
fected by the anthracnose fungus. II
does not become conspicuous until
the bolls are formed, and then only
after wet weather has favored its
spread. Fortunately it is not carried
long distances by the wind, and so
any farmer can control it independ-
emily of his neighbors.
Plant seed free from infection. Get
it from disease-free field If possible,
or carefully select it from freshly
opened bolls on unaffected stalks in a
field having a moderate amount of
the disease. If only a small amount of
disease-free seed can be obtained.
plant 1t in special seed plot well
away from other cotton. Avoid any
mixing at the gin with other cotton
seed.
Since the fungus may live over for
a year in old affected stalks. do not
plant cotton the next year in a field
where the disease has been unless it
has been fall plowed and the stalks
have thoroughly rotted. In buying
trial lots of cotton or any other seed
from a distance. get reliable assur-
ance that it is free from dangerous
disease contamination. and to be on
the safe side plant it we'll away from
the same crops on the farm.-North

BUSINESS PURPOSE OF S0WS

Work to Best Advantage.

by w. l.. BLIZZARD. Animal Husban n
dry Department. Oklahoma Agricultural
College.)
Sows are not kept for the purpose
of eating feed merely. Their business
is to farrow pigs, and to nurse them
to a point where they can be fed.
With this in view, the SOW should be
so fed and managed as to enable her
to do her work to the very best ad-
vantage.
A SOW should remain in the herd as
long as useful A good. steady SOW
with well-developed teats can usually
be. depended upon to repeat the per-
Torrance If the SOW is properly han
died and fails to fulfill her duties, she
has no business on the farm. and the
quicker she is found out and dis
posed of the better. Feeding is a
matter of much importance for the
brood sow as she needs the right
kind of feed for three important pur-
poses: For the maintenance of her
own body; for the growth OF her own
body; for the development OF the fetal
pigs.

Inc increase in indigestibility by
the grinding OF grain varies accord
ing to the animals feed. One author
ity states that in the case of horses
the digestibility when fed ground ra-
lions is increased as much as Ia per
cent. One of the great French experts
made an experiment with one thou
sand cab and omnibus horses in
france. His findings were that some
advantages are gained by the grind
ing OF food for horses but in many in
stances. however. il does not appear,
according to his experiments, to cover
the cost of operation. AS his tests
are confined exclusively to a certain
type or work horses. his opinion on
the advisability of feeding ground
FOOD must not be taken to CO yer all
types of work horses.
AS stated above. farm horses which
are worked constantly six and some
times seven days a week actually need
to have their food ground because at
the time of their taking rations every
junction of their body. particularly
their digestive organs, should have the
least tax possible.
The feeding time of farm horses is
resting time and unless every organ
or the animal is resting the rations
are not apt to be beneficial. Particu-
larry Is this true of old horses and
the consensus of opinion is that
ground grain is fed to advantage.

station ear corn as compared with
corn and cob meal for horse rations,

greatest results and satisfaction.
causing the stock to be able to con-
sumo heavier rations. Careful nrep-
aration for feed grinding pays big in
this instance.
Ground feed is also the best to feed
exceptionally hard-worked animals
that have but limited time for taking
their rations. Particularly is this true
OF farm horses, which are usually
hard-worked and spend most of their
time In the fields. The best part of
their grain should be thoroughly
ground. Carriage or saddle horses
that are idle a good part of the time
IN most instances grind their own

horses to permit them to do so. Dairy
cows which yield a good percentage
or milk can be considered in the class
OF a hardworked animal and conse-
quently should be kept on ground food
rations.
In the matter of sheep the value of
grinding depends particularly on the
condition of the teeth. Where the
teeth are in excellent shape and are
capable Of crushing the whole feeds
SO that mastication is thorough and
the digestive juices can operate salts
factorily. many feeders prefer whole
grains. but in the majority of herds
the grinding for sheep rations is
looked upon as the most satisfactory
and likewise the most productive in
