which would be 4 ounces of the COM
pound to every gallon of water.
The best method of applying the dis
infectant is by means of strong spray
pump, such as those used by orchardists.
This method is efficient in disinfec-
lion against most of the contagious and
infectious diseases of animals, and
should be applied Immediately follow
ing any outbreak, and, as matter of
precaution, it may be used once or twice
yearly.
All stables, like houses, should have
ample window space in order to admit
a plentiful supply of sunlight and fresh
air, in themselves among the most pow
erful disinfectants known. Bacteria
thrive in dampness, dirt, and darkness,
and a clean, dry stable presents the
most unfavorable conditions for their
development. For this reason good drain
age is also an essential point to be con-
sidered in the construction of a stable.
Cresol, carbolic acid, and other coal
tar products used as disinfectants have
a disagreeable odor, which may readily
be absorbed by milk and other dairy
products 1t is therefore sometimes in
advisable to use them, and in such cases
bichlorid of mercury may be substi-
tuted. This should be used in the pro-
portion of 1 to 500, or 1 pound of BIZ
Chord to 100 gallons of water. Where
bichlorid is used, however, all portions
of the stable which have become soiled
with manure should first be thoroughly
scraped and cleaned, as the albumin
contained in manure greatly diminishes
the disinfecting power of the mercury
Bich1orid of mercury is also powerful
corrosive poison, and its use should al
ways be supervised by a veterinarian
or some other person experienced in the
handling of poisonous drugs. The BIZ
Chord solution should be applied with
a spray pump like the cresol solution
All managers and feed boxes which have
been sprayed should be allowed to dry
and then be washed out with hot water.
Care in this respect is important, for
cattle are especially susceptible to mer-
curia1 poisoning.

Hard Spring Wheat

lizard spring wheat, although intro
duced into the northern Great
Plains of this country and Canada about
the middle of the last century, did not
become firmly established as a profit
able crop until after 1870, coincident
with the introduction of the purifier
and roller mill. There are two chief
varieties, Fife and Bluestem. The Fife
was the first to be established. 1t is
little more hardy than the Bluestem and
has slightly harder kernel. The kerr
mel is particularly distinguished by its
greater breadth in proportion to length
and by its very broad groove. The Fife
has white bare chair and the Bluestem
white velvet chair. Both varieties have
red kernels and no boards

December, 1915

The average annual value to the farm
family of food, fuel, oil, and a roof over
head as reported for several hundred
farms studied by the department was
found to be $595.OS, of which s42117
was furnished by the farm.
The total cost of the minor items of
equipment needed on a farm is much
greater than the average person is wont
to think. 1t has been found by inven-
tories taken on a number of farms that
the tools and implements actually
needed on the average farm, from
wheelbarrow down to a husking peg,
cost nearly 5000.
In farm work the machine that lasts
the longest, in years, is generally the
least profitable. This is because it is
the number of acres covered per year,
rather than years of life, which deter
mines the profitableness of an fmple-
ment.
A grain binder lasts, on the average,
between so and go days of service,
spread over Is years at the rate of less
than 4 days per year.

How to
DisinfeCt

I'm any outbreak of infectious disease
IL among animals thorough disinfec-
ton of the premises is essential to
preventing the spread of the contagion.
Certain substances, such as fresh slaked
lime or unslaked lime in powder form,
chlorid of lime, carbolic acid, corrosive
sublimate, formalin, formaldehyde gas,
and compound solution of cresol possess
the power of destroying bacteria with
which they come in contact. To make
the use of such substances of value,
however, the work must be done with
the utmost thoroughness. Careless dis
infection is probably worse than none,

premises the following directions should
-'be carefully observed:
/. Sweep ceilings, side walls, stall
partitions. floors, and other surfaces I'M
til free from cobwebs and dust
2. Remove all accumulations of filth
by scraping, and If woodwork has be-
come decayed, porous, or absorbent, it
should be removed, burned, and re
placed with new material.
3. If the floor is of earth, remove
inches from the surface, and in places
where it shows staining with urine
sufficient depth should be replaced to
expose fresh earth. All earth removed
should be replaced with earth from an
uncontaminated source, or a new floor
of concrete may be laid, which is very
durable and easily cleaned.
f. All refuse and material from sta
BILE and barnyard should be removed to
a place not accessible to cattle or hogs
and covered with freshly slaked lime.
If this manure is spread on fields, it
should be turned under Immediately.

drains, should be saturated with a dis
