MUCH CATTLE FEED WASTED
rial Increases Cost of Meat
Production.

A vast quantity of feed available
for cattle is now either wasted absO-
lutely or put TO some less profitable
use, according to a recent report OF
the department of agriculture. Fail
ure TO utilize the full value of their
material has increased unnecessarily
the cost of producing meat. has di-
FINISHED the profits from cattle feed
ing. and has discouraged many farm
ers from engaging in an industry es-
sential 10 their permanent prosperity.
According TO this report, the loss In
grain, straw and corn slower amounts
TO more than $1OO,OOOO00 annually.
Both of these products are disposed
of most economically when fed to
cattle in connection with some form of
concentrated feed. Straw is especial
~ valuable in carrying the breeding
herd through the winter, in wintering
stOckers and as supplementary
rOughage for fattening cattle. Slower,
too, is an excellent feed for wintering
cattle, especially mature breeding
cows. Nevertheless. in many sections
of the country where these products
are abundant, little attempt is made
TO take advantage of their value for
these purposes.

REMEDIES FOR LICE ON HOGS
Nebraska College of Agriculture Says
Crude OIL Probably Cheapest and
Most Effective.

OF the remedies commonly used for
lice on hogs. the Nebraska college of
agriculture says that crude oil is prob
ably the cheapest and the most effec-
tive. as 1t kills not only the lice, but
the nits as well at one application.
The most convenient method of apply
ing is by means of a hog Oiler, of
which there are several good types.
These have the advantage of being
always ready and need little attention
except keeping oil supplied. The best
type of oiler is one that enables the
pig to get the oil to all parts of the
body. If there is any indication of
skin disease, the part should be
scrubbed with a broom or brush so as
to get the oil we'll into the skin. Where
crude oil is used, 1t will be noticed that
the skin and hair are improved in APP
pearance. Where the floors of the pens
or sheds are of dirt, liberal appli-
cation If =" will keep down the dust
as in killing lice.

The fact that farmers gre crying for
relief from the weed pest, and that
the government is trying 10 aid them,
is one of the encouraging signs of the
day. To rid the country Of weeds
would put agriculture forward almost
intellectually.
An enormous amount of labor is in
volved every year in the determination
of weeds. Not only are these weeds
troublesome to cultivated agricultural
crops, but they are troublesome In
meadows and pastures. The cornfields
and cultivated crops generally must
be kept clean if a crop is to be pro-
duced. OF course, the farmer would
want to till his soil whether weeds
occurred or not A soil that is not cul-
tivated would not produce remuner-
alive crop. But the weeds have come
to stay, and the farmer must til the
soil to keep the weeds in subjectiCn n.

CLOVER AND ALFALFA BlOAT
Sugar Contained in Blossoms
Formalin Is Favored.
CBy DIR. c. c. LIPPO


According TO circular 5 of the Ken
lucky experiment station, it has been
found that the cause of bloat in cat
tie following the eating of either
clover or alfalfa pasture is due to the
fermentation of the sugar contained
in the blossoms. Red clover blossoms
contain about 3.6 per cent sugar, al
falfa blossoms IS per cent. Soon aft
er being eaten, fermentation begins,
resulting in the production of q consid-
cradle quantity of carbon dioxide. This
distendS the first stomach or rumen
and produces the condition known as
blOat.
The authors of the Kentucky bulle-
tin strongly recommend the use of
fOrmalin for this condition. One quart
OF Il per cent solution is given as
drench. This IL per cent solution is
made by adding three tablespoonfuls Of
formalin TO one quart of water. Gentle
exercises should be given the animal
if possible after the medicine has been
given. This treatment is simple, safe,
and inexpensive, and should be kept
on hand SO that it may be used on a
moments notice should necessity re-
quire.

processes. While direct methods may
often be. effective, the most successful
will be those having TO do with the
conditions of agriculture and the meth
DDS of tillage and increase the pro-
ductiveness of the soil.
Weeds grow where they can find
room to grow. Some crops then per-
NIT certain weeds to grow with them,
while another weed may find cOngen-
ial conditions with another crop. Thus
cookie and cheat have grown with
wheat perhaps as long as wheat has
been cultivated.
Purslane and pigweeds are always
found in gardens, thistles and mulleins
in pastures, whitetop in meadows.

Certain-teed
Roofing

takes its place in the sun" and holds it longer
than other similar roofing, because it is made
of the very best quality roofing felt, thoroughly
saturated with the correct blend of soft asphalts,
and coated with blend of harder asphalts.
This outer coating keeps The inner saturation
soft, and prevents the drying out process so
destructive to the ordinary roof.
The blend of asphalts used by The General
is the result of long experience. 1t produces
a roofing more pliablc than those which have
less saturation, and which are: therefore,
harder and drer.
At each of the Generals big mills, expert
chemists are constantly employed TO refine,
test and blend the asphalts used; also to expert
ment for possible improvements. Their constant
endcavor is to make the best roofing still better.
The quality of CERTAIN-TEED is such that
it is guaranteed for 5, 10 or IS years, according
to thickness Il, 2 or 3 ply. Experience proves
that it lasts longer. Behind this guarantee is the
responsibility of the worlds largest manufac-
turer of roo6ngs and building papers.
