PRESIDENTIAL POINTERS

Inauguration day was fixed up
on the 4th of March because
that date seldom occurred on
Sunday. But three times during
our history has the Inauguration
day fallen on Sunday. The first
was the second inaugural of
Monroe, March 4, 1921; the sec
ond was when Taylor was made
president, March A., 1S49; the
third was the inauguration Of
Hayes on March 4, 1877.
This will happen three times
during each century, or n year
after every seven leap years. Ex-
cept when passing from one GEN.
fury to another, there is a slight
variation as will be observed In
the following dates of the past
and future inaugurations, of the
first two centuries of the re-
public:

DR.. M. Jacob, State Veterinarian, tells

an infected herd, or coming in con.
tact with those from infected farms,
or running over grounds that were oc.
cupied by cholera-infected hogs within
tour months get the disease.
2. Infected streams may communi
cate the disease to the herds below
the source of infection.
3. The disease may be carried in
feed, implements used on the farm,
and on the feet and clothing of per
sons from infected herds and prem
lses.
T. Dogs, birds, buzzards, chickens,
ETC., that have access to infected
premises or diseased carcasses, may
transport the hog cholera virus.
s. Any dead animal, whether a
horse, COW, sheep, dog, chicken, or
hog, If permitted to remain unburned,
or buried, is source of infection. as
buzzards and dogs feeding upon this
carcass may have come from an In

The best time to out corn for silage
is when the bottom blades have turned
brown and the grain is well glazed.
At this stage the shuck will begin to
show brown color.
About fodder pulling time" or just
little later, is good time to put
corn into the silo.
1t is a good plan to let the corn get
as ripe as possible.
Fairly good silage may be made
from dry corn stalks, provided an
abundant supply of water is run into
the silo along with the corn. One
secures much better silage If the corn
Ia cut at the proper stage.

The corn may be cut either by hand
or with corn harvester Where the
amounts to be harvested are small
number of farmers may club In to-
gether and purchase a harvester.
The best types of cutters are
equipped with blower attachments for
elevating the corn into the silo. The
power required is about one horse
power for every one-inch length in the
cutting cylinder A 12-inch cutter will
require 12-horse-power engine, and
15-inch cutter about 15-horse-power
engine if a gasoline engine Ia used.
II a steam engine is used it should
have at least two-thirds the rated
horsepower as that indicated for the
gasoline engine.
The silage should be cut In lengths |
from one-half to one inch. Cutting In |
short lengths, filling slowly and pack.

way to cure deafness, anC that Is by constitution

Plant legumes!" There may be
other battle cries today but none more
important, for this cry would lead to
constructive work-the building I'D of
soils.
This is the cry sent forth from all
OF the agencies working for the agri-
cultural development of Arkansas,
Mississippi, and Tennessee. Farmers
and their organizations are back of
the movement The divisions of ex-
tension of the colleges of agriculture,
experiment stations, commissioners of
agriculture, bankers associations, ag
ricultural departments of railroads,
newspapers and the agricultural press,
business mems organizations, rural
churches and schools, women's clubs,
and all other groups of people who
have the welfare of these three states
at heart are doing their part to In
crease the acreage Of legumes.
Crimson clover is one of these le- |
gumes that will be planted this month |
Of August. There are otter legumes |
that may be used on farms to build Up |
The soil and increase the profits.
