PREVENT SERIOUS
LOSS FROM SMUT
Formalin Treatment Is Wholly
Effective and Economical
How to Apply Liquid.

Growers who wish to prevent seri-
Gus loss from smut will find the for
malin treatment wholly effective and
economical. The formalin may be
bought at any drug store at from fifty
cents to one dollar pint and this
amount will do for treating about
forty bushels Of seed. Add one pint
Of formalin, which should be bought
in sealed bottles to insure full
strength, to forty gallons of water.
Mix thoroughly and apply to the
seed oats at once. Spread the grain
on floor, or in the bottom of a
wagon-bed. Use a common garden
sprinkler to put on the solution and
sprinkle until wet, mix the grain with
a shovel and sprinkle again. Every
grain must be thoroughly wet with
some Of the mixture or the smut will
not be killed.
After sprinkling, put the grain in a
pile and cover with blankets or sacks
for ten or twelve hours, or over night.
This will kill some smut which other
wise would not be touched. Spread
the grain out and SOW as soon as sufh-

SAVE ALL OF GOOD
BREEDING ANIMALS
Desirable Pigs, Lambs, Calves
and Colts Should Receive
Best of Attention.

The importance of saving all of the
breeding animals that would make de-
sirable sires and dams will certainly
be apparent to those who think of the
subject seriously. There seems to be
a strong demand for breeding animals
to place at the head of herds. Many
who have never given animals a place
on their farms are now beginning
herds or wish to get breeding stock
for the purpose of making beginning
with animals. Let every man who has
desirable pigs, lambs, calves and colts
take care of the animals so they may
be of use to the people who need
them.
The man who raises breeding stock
for those who need them deserves
credit. He is making it possible for
his neighbors to raise better stock.
By his diligence in breeding live stock
he helps his neighbors and is making
it possible for farms to produce more
wealth.
Every breeder who has animals that
are desirable for breeders owes it to
his neighbors and friends as well as
| to the country to advertise his animals
so others who need breeding stock
may buy. Poor animals should not be
used and it is useless to advertise
| them. Successful breeders recognize
| this and Gull out the undesirable and
| offer only those that are valuable for
breeders. Every registered animal is
not suitable for breeding stock Many
are not. These undesirables should be
slaughtered 1t takes more than regis
tration papers to make a desirable
sire or dam. The animals must have
type and conformation, with pure

(By H NJ COTTRELL)
A young sow should be selected
whose mother and grandmother have
eight or more good pigs at a time,
are heavy mixers and quiet, good
mothers. The strain should be sufi-
GENTLY active to thrive on pasture.
The young SOW should be thick, deep
and lengthy and should have not less
than ten good teats.
The SOW pig intended for a breeder
should be pushed for the first year
and given feeds that will make rapid
growth, but that will not fatten. Such
feeds as milk, alfalfa or clover pas
ture, or hay, and moderate quantities
of grain, such as wheat, peas, barley,
milo maize, and shorts. She should
weigh from 800 to 375 pounds at
twelve months of age when in thrifty
condition, but not fat. Ample exercise
every day is necessary for health and
to develop muscles and lungs. If the
SOW has made good growth, she may
be bred to drop her first litter when
she becomes twelve months old. She
should be in perfect health and in
good flesh. when bred. The CESSATION
period for the sow is about 112 days.

A width of three or four inches is
cut from the top of a length of lace
to form the ruff1e for the neck and
front of the body. The remainder of
this length will make the ruffles that
are set on to the ends of the sleeves.
The narrow, standing ruff1e makes a

VENTILATION AND
LIGHT In STABLES
Filth and Darkness Almost In
VariabIy Go Together-Put
in More Windows.

Provide plenty of light. A dark
stable is an abomination, regardless
Of what kind of stock it contains. Filth
and darkness almost invariably go to-
gether. Procure some sash (oId ones
are just as good for this purpose) and
fit with glass. When there is ordi-
narily one window there should be two
or three. Three square feet of sash
is none too much for each ten linear
feet of siding.
The windows may be made to slide,
or be hinged at the lower edge, and
held in place with a catch, providing
for a method Of ventilation which,
while crude, is better than none.
