TROUBLES OF YOUNG CHICKS
BIisters on Head and Feet Often
Caused by Loco Weed Poisoning
Separate Aiing Birds.

When young chicks show up with
blisters, or something akin to bis
tiers, on the head and feet, one must
take the locality in mind when try
ing to determine the ailment.
If it is in land where loco weed
and it's kindred grow, and the chicks
run out in all manners Of weather or
time of day, then one must look around
for the loco weed that is poisoning the
chicks head and feet and binding it's
eyes; but If in land where this poi
sonous plant is unknown, then but
one other disease suggests as the rea-
son, and this is chickenpox.
For the loco poison the chicks must
be kept away from it, especially when
wet or damp, and the blister can be
treated with peroxide Of hydrogen, di-
luted half, followed by the application
of carbolized ointment.
Again, should it prove chickenpox,
the diseased chicks must be taken
from the well and the quarters disin-
fected. Feed them heavily, stirring
three or four grains Of sulphur each
day in their feed; treat the head and
sore eyes with the remedy given for
the sores of loco poison. If the bis
tiers develop into warty looking ulcers
kill the chick and burn 1t.

cultivated before picking begins. Even
when there is mulch 1t is good plan
to remove this material and cultivate;
1t can be replaced.
Rotate With Legumes.
A systematic rotation Of crops Is
just as important in growing straw
berries as 1t Is in growing other crops,
but very few growers practice 1t to any
great extent. Soil on which straw
berries are raised year after year does
not produce as large crops Of fruit as
1t would were a good system OF rota-
ton followed. In any system OF rota-
ton some leguminous crops should be
grown and turned under one year In
every three or four years, and Guilt
waited crop grown on the soil the sea-
son before the strawberry plants are
SET
For the South the following system
can be employed to good advantage:
Strawberries for one or two years, fol-
lowed by cowpeas after the strawber-
ries are harvested. Turn under the
cowpeas In the fall or winter or har-
vest them for hay. The next spring
plant the land to some vegetable crop,
such as early cabbage, and follow with
fall crop of vegetables or cowpeas
for turning under. Plant the land to
corn the following spring and plant
cowpeas between the rows. After the
corn is harvested, turn under the
stalks and the pea vines.
When strawberries are planted In
the fall, they can be set out after the
cowpeas and cornstalks are turned
under. A second system that can be
followed is strawberries one or two
years, followed by fall crop OF vege-
tables after the berries are harvested.
The next spring plant to vegetables,
and follow with cowpeas, and then
either plant strawberries again or
grow corn and cowpeas followed with
strawberries. In sections where vege-
tables are not grown commercially,
oats can follow the cowpeas that are
turned under the season the straw
berry field is plowed, and either cow
peas or peanuts can follow the oats.
The following year plant the land TO
corn, with cowpeas between the rows;
then return to strawberries. By fol-
lowing a good rotation system, sucn
as has been suggested, the yield OF
strawberries will be greatly increased
and the cost Of cultivation lowered.
Harvesting of the strawberry crop
and the kind Of packages used in mar
keting are also dealt with in Farmers
Bulletin No. 664, which may be had
by application to the United States
department of agriculture.

And / wish you joy Of him." re-
peated Mrs. Philip Adams, pursuing
her lips and looking angrily at Lucy
Smith.
It had always irritated the wealthy
farmers wife that her cousin, the wife
of neer-do-well Frank Smith, should
have offered a home to their mutual
uncle, Mark Evans.
Mark Evans had owned a prosper
Gus farm of his own a few years be-
fore, but when his wife died tho old
man of eighty was unable to keep it
up At eighty-two his niece, Mrs.
Adams, fearing that the depreciating
property would leave her only trivial
legacy, persuaded the old man to sell
out.
Pay the money over to me and
Phil" she said, and we'll take care Of
you for the rest of your days"
The old man did so, but the farm
realized less than thousand dollars.
The Adams family was furious.
"If I'd known the old skinfiint wasn't
worth more than that, I'd have seen
myself swished before I'd have got
stung for home,' said Philip.
What's he done with all his money?
He used to be rich," said his wife.
However, he won't last long"
But he did last. Old Mark -four

was as vigorous as many man OF
half his age. In vain his niece watched
for signs of breakdown.

husband. IF it wasn't for what the
neighbors weuld say, I'd turn him away
to the poorhouse He's stung us fair
Old Mark heard that. He had re-
signed himself without complaint to
the attic room, to separate table
where he received the scraps that fell
from the family's leavings. He had
borne the taunts Of the ill-bred Adams
children. But it stung him to the
quick to be a burden, to be accused
Of dishonesty.
MY niece Lucy Smith wants me to
spend week with her, he announced
the next day. Guess I'll pay her a
visit"
Guess you'll pay the fare, too
sneered Philip Adams.
However, Lucy had paid the fara,
and the old man duly departed. The

RIGHT MANAGEMENT OF sow
Important Feature Is to Get Young
sters to Feed as Early as Posi-
bIe-Provide "Creep."
(By r. G. WEATHERsToNE.)

An important feature in the success
full management of the SOW and litter
is to get the youngsters to feed as
early as possible This pays in two
ways-it saves some of the drag on
the SOW and it gets the pigs fit to
wean earlier, releasing the sow from
her maternal duties.
Moreover, when the pigs are re-
moved from the SOW, which is gener-
ally a fortnight too soon, they are
much better fit to do without her milk
and also much less liable to the con-
vulsive attacks so common in newly
weaned pigs, whose stomachs are un-
accustomed to deal with the coarse
food often too plentifully supplied to
them.
Indigestion, constipation and fits"
are very intimately connected and all
are due to improper feeding.
The best way to teach young pigs
to eat is to provide run or creep"
into an adjoining pen to which the
SOW cannot obtain access, or to feed
them while she is turned out to get
some exercise.

"He has a good appetite" admitted
Lucy. 1--WE like to see uncle eat"

That was true, and the old man
was welcome. No longer living upon
grudging charity, he sat at the table
with his relatives. The best bedroom
In the house had been offered him.
However. Old Mark would not take
that. but he was certainly mere COM

One thing had always distressed
Lucy. Old Mark insisted en- going
out to work.
1t might seem that man Of eighty
four is incapable Of active labor. But
Old Mark, though he had not been
able to keep up his farm, had by
no means lost lis muscular activity.
AS labor was scarce in the neighbor-
hood. the farmers, incredulous at first
when the old MAJ offered his serv-
ices, were glad enough to allow him
to dig in their gardens at a dollar a
day. Besides that the old man did
odd chores.

Prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
The method of handling the alfalfa
field to get the largest returns is one
which interests large number of
farmers both growers of alfalfa and
prospective growers. Experiments re-
corded in the United States depart
ment bulletin No. 22S, Effect of Ere
quent Cutting on the Water Require
ments of Alfalfa and It's Bearing on
Pasturage," indicate that the total con-
sumption of water by alfalfa can be
controlled to a considerable extent by
pasturage or frequent clipping, with
by pasturing or clipping the crop its
growth can be regulated to accord
with the amount of available moisture
in the SOIL
With limited amount of stored
moisture it is evident the greatest pro-
duction can be obtained by allowing
the crop to grow when the water re-
quirement is the lowest in the spring
or fall, and by keeping the leaf sur
face at a minimum during the sum-
mer through clipping or pasturage.
The efficiency of reducing the size of
the aerial portion Of the plant as a
means of moisture conservation dur
ing periods of drought has often been
observed.
Whenever the moisture supply falls
short of the amount necessary to pro-
duce normal crops throughout the sea-
son, summer grazing appears to afford
simple and practical means of OBJ
tanning a return from alfalfa common
surate with the available moisture and
at the same time reduces the danger
of drought injury When the moist
ure supply is adequate for continuous
crop production throughout the sea-
son, it is believed that close pastur-
age or clipping would result in
marked reduction in the amount of
alfalfa produced. Consequently, where
The Brandon news. (Brandon, Miss.) 1892-1961, 1915-07-08

grazing is practiced greater production
can be secured by intermittent graz
ing; that is, by employing several
fields which are pastured in rotation.
A practice similar to that suggested
above has been gradually developed in
Australia and gives the best return
in the management of Australian al
falfa land The practice is to grow
a hay crop in the early spring and to
pasture the alfalfa during the remain
der of the year. Aside from the hay
obtained, alfalfa is very valuable in
Australia for grazing purposes, be-
cause it responds to summer rainfall,
while the native grasses, being an
nuals, afford no late pasturage. On
a large ranch near Wagga Wagga,
N. S. W., 1000 acres of Peru
Wan alfalfa has been handled I'M
der this combined system of hay
and pasturage. The alfalfa at this
ranch carries three sheep per acre
during the summer, autumn and win
ter months. About the first of Sep
TENDER (early spring. the sheep are
taken off, The alfalfa makes a luxu-
RANT growth during the cool spring
months, and crop of from 1900 to
1000 pounds per acre of cured hay is
obtained. The hay is produced when
the weather is cool and the transporta-
ton rate low-in other words, when
the crop is making the most efficient
use of the water supply. The normal
rainfall in this region is about Fl
inches and is quite uniformly distrib-
uted, each month having more than
one inch of rainfall and only two
months June and October, CORE
spending to our December and April,
respectively more than two inches.
This combined system of hay and
pasturage has found much favor in
New South Wales, and is carried out
in rolling plains country, where
there is no chance of subirrigation,
and on loan or sandy loan soils.
