MARKET ALL SURPLUS MALES
All Young cockereIs Not Intended for
Breeding Should BE Either Sold
or caponixed.

Surplus cockerels should be mar
keted as soon as possible is the ad-
vice of poultry specialists. All young
male chickens that are not intended
for breeding purposes should be either
sold as broilers or caponized. The
things to keep In mind is that the long
er cockerel is held after he has
reached the broiler stage the less liz
his actual value as q market product.
Only in special cases should the cock
erels Of the Leghorn breed be capon-
lied. Breeds OF the heavier types, such
as Plymouth Rocks or Rhode Island
Reds can be caponized with profit II
the cockerels are not marketed at the
proper time money will be lost, un-
less they are SO selected as to bring
more as breeding stock. On the other
hand cockerels of only market value
should be disposed of as soon as there
issa market for them. Two--pound

ROPE FOR THE KICKING COW
System Described In Which Milk Stool
Is Eiiminated--Much Better
Than Being Kicked. Ss

Tie the COW about the ncck with
q rope in bowline knot. Tie the
other end of the rope to the manger
or post, leaving aboutS1S to 20 inches
OF rope from the COW to the post.
Next place the pail on the ground near
the COW, but at a distance great enough
to keep her from kicking 1t. Put your
head against the COW Just about the
flank (there being no stool In this
.system). If she starts to- kick the
contraction Of the muscles under your
head warns you and you must start
to push against her with all your
might. If you start soon enough she
will not kick as the shove you give her
with your head causes her to think she
will lose her balance and she keeps her
feet on the ground to prevent falling.
In the event Of her succeeding In
getting one foot raised, be sure to keep.
a good hold on her teats and don't
stop pushing against her. In a few
lessons the COW learns that It is not
safe to raise her feet and you can just
place your head as stated and lean
against her. OF course, this is very
tiresome at first, but 1t is much better
than being kicked and after you get
the ''knack" OF the thing you will put
the milk-stoOl in the junk heap.

CONTROL OF SORGHUM SMUT
Treating Solution Made by Mixing of
Formalin With Water-sprinl<ling
Seed Is Easy. I,

Kernel smut Of the sorghum crops
nay be controlled by the same treat
ment given to kill oats smut. The
treating solution is made by mixing a
mint of formalin (a1so called formal
dehyde) with 80 to 40 gallons OF wa
ter. The seed may either be sprinkled
or immersed. Sprinkling Is easier and
If done carefully Is just as effective.
In the sprinkling method the seed Is
spread out on a clean floor and the
solution is applied with sprinkling
can. The seed Is stirred while being
sprinkled. When each seed Is mois-
tened the seed is piled up.and covered
tightly with wet sacks, blankets or
canvas for several hours. Then 1t Is
spread out to dry. Successive lots are
handled In the same way.
Treated seed should not come in
contact with containers that have held
untreated seed, unless those containers
have also been treated with the solu-
ton. Sorghum smut causes a very
large annual loss. It affects all of the
sorghums except milo.
Milo is said not to be affected by
smut, and milo seed. therefore. does
not require treatment.

value to a buyer of breeding animals
unless he knows something Of the In
dividuals found among the ancestry
named. The hog breeder must know
the bloodlines that are. popular in the
breed he is producing. and those that
are doing the most to build mp the
breed.
Remember, the better the breeding
stock the better are the chances for Inn
proving the individuals in the herd,
and thereby building up good herd.
Hence the greater opportunity for sue
cess In the hog business.
Then again, you must feed and care
for what you have already, or they be-
come finer In spite OF all you can do
and will soon go back to the scrub
stage. Do not cross breeds. The best
cross for any breed is the feedbin.
All feeding must be done with good
judgment. Changing feed must be done
gradually. Avoid radical changes. II
a ration change Is made, 1t Is liable to
disturb the condition Of the animal,
and if she is SOW sucking pigs, Ii is
very likely to be serious danger to
the litter. Therefore, make all
changes of feed carefully, moderately
and gradually. so as not to injure the
litter or SOW.

BEST FATTENING HOG CROPS
Corn and cowpeas, With Sufficient
Area Should BE Provided-SMeet
Potatoes Also Favored.

By w. r. DoDsoN, Louisiana Expert
s ment Staton1
The best fattening crop available
from the 10th to the Goth Of July Is
corn and cowpeas, and sufficient area
should be supplied to keep the hogs
from four to six weeks.
It will generally be found advan-
tageous at the end Of that time to
transfer them to field Of peanuts or
soy beans OF sufficient area to main
tain the animals about four to six
weeks. Feed them a. little dry corn to,
balance the ration. Probably the most
profitable crop available for hog feed
from the latter part of October until
the latter part of December Is sweet
potatoes, and the fattening period can
be closed with the harvesting OF this
crop.
When hogs. are allowed to harvest
sweet potatoes at viii and are fed
a moderate quantity Of slops contain
ing a rich protein feed, they make
remarkably rapid gains.

REGULAR FEEDING FOR cows
Greatest Degree Of contentment In
Herd Can Only BE Secured by
Strictest Regularity.

It is OF great Importance that strict
regularity should be observed, both in
feeding and in milking, in order-to Sc
cure the greatest degree Of content
ment in the herd. First give the grain
mixture, and milk the cows while they
are eating 1t. This routine is recon-
mended because, with some cows, the
milk comes more freely while they are
eating that portion of their ration
which has the most relish.

milking because II fills the air In the

RULES FOR DRAGGING ROADS
illinois Highway Commission Gives In
struction on Care and Maintenance
of Highways.

The following rules are given by the
Illinois highway commission:
Use light drag.
Haul 1t over the road at an angle
so that small amount Of earth 10
pushed to the center OF the road.
Drive the team at walk.
Ride on the drag; do not walk.
Begin at one side of the road. re-
turning up the opposite side.
Drag the road as soon after every
rain as possible, but not when the
mud is In such condition as to stick
to the drag.
Do not drag dry road.
Drag whenever possible at all sea,
sons of the year.
The width OF travelling way to be
maintained by the drag should be
from 18 to 20 feet; first drag little
more than the width of single wheel
track, then gradually increase until
desired width Is obtained.
Always drag a little earth toward
the center Of the road until it is raised
from 10 to ~ inches above the edges
Of the travelled way.
II the drag cuts too much shorten
the hitch
The amount Of earth that the drag
will carry along can be very consider
ably controlled by the driver, accord
ingly as he stands near the cutting end
or away from It.
When the roads are first dragged
after a very muddy spell the wagons
should drive, IL possible. to one side
until the roadway has a chance to
freeze or partially to dry out.
The best results from dragging are
obtained only by repeated application.
Remember that constant attention ts
necessary to maintain an earth road in
its best condition.

stalks, will cause them to shrink in

they may be fed in the morning and

them than they will eat up. The man
