JERSEY COW LEADS
FORT DUMMER TEST
HoIstein Ahead IN Bellows Falls Asso-
citation Pasturage Stimulates
Product of the Cows.

The end Of the month of May finds
most cows at pasture and doing nice
ly. Although personally in favor of
the Guernseys, the Fort Dummer COW
testing report shows that the Jersey
may be small but able to come out as
champion for the month with the but
terfat. Pastures are acting as stimu-
lants, putting new life into the COWS,
making an increase in the milk and
i'm tle tests, the rise in the tests
not being exactly due to the feed, but
more to the radical change in the
feed.
The blue ribbon COW is one of C.
s. Tenney's fine herd, giving 1926
pounds of G-per cent milk containing
al pounds of butterfat for the
month, equal to 2.82 pounds of butter
a day. This cow is getting the same
care as tle whole herd and is milkej
only twice daily.

HEAD OFF SMUT BY
USE OF FORMALIN
Treatment of Seed Will Prevent Ap-
pearance of Smut Which Winter
Over on Outside of Grain.

A number of our cereal smuts car
ry their spores over the winter on the
outside of the grain. The spores ger
inmate in the spring at the same time
that the seed terminates. Hence the
sprouting seed Is infected and later,
when the head is formed, its grains
become smutted.'
Tne following cereal smuts behave
in the manner described above: Stink
ing smut or bunt of wheat, loose smut
of oats, kernel smut of oats, covered
smut of barley, smut of rye, and kerr
mel smut of sorghums.
In such cases as these, in which
the spores are carried over on the out
side of the grain, the formahn dip or
sprinkle is to be recommended as an
entirely satisfactory control measure
Formalin Ga 40 per cent solution OF
| formaldehyde gas in water) may be
| obtained from the druggist in one pint
/ (about one pound) lots. Use one pint
| of formalin in about 45 gallons OF
water. This amount will treat a
least 40 bushels of grain. Dip about
| half-buslel amounts of the grain int
the solution several times, until quit
sure that all parts of the lot have
been reached. Allow it to drain
spread out ON a clean floor or canvas
and cover for from , to 3 hours, the
remove the cover and let the grain be
come thoroughly dry. Instead of DIP
ping, the grain may be spread out o
clean floor, canvas or wagon boz
and sprinkled with the solution a
prepared above. Mix the grain an
formalin thoroughly by turning tn
grain over and over as it is bein
treated. Then cover for , to 3 hour
after which time it should be sprea
out in thin layer and allowed to DR..

BE CAREFUL IN SPRAYING.
to Tree in Blossom Will
Kill the Bees.

All who contemplate spraying trees
this year should exercise preeautioa
not to spray while the trees are in
bloom. In the past there has been
some complaint from a few sections
of the country that people nave sprayed
their fruit trees or some of them while
they were in bloom. This as most
people know poisons the pollen, thus
having a tendency to kill one of the
farmer 5 best friends-the bees. Adult
bees are not injured and they 10 not
consume the pollen but do take it to
the hives where tle little larvae are
killed by getting the arsenic which is
on the pollen. Some experiments car
ried on in California seem to show
that danger from this trouble is not
as serious as thought but farmers
should avoid all suspicion and not take
any chances with tle bees, as they
are needed in large numbers to pollin-
ate the fruit so that there may be dan
ger of injuring a good set when there
| is a full bloom.
| 1t Is probably safe to start spraying
| if one has Il large orchard when the
| petals are three-fourths off from the
trees. The trouble ordinarily comes
in spraying some of the later blooming
varieties before they are ready. and II
would be we'll to let these go unit
the last, returning to spray them after
the petals have dropped. Or if one has
only a few scattered trees of later
blooming varities it would be muel
better to postpone the spraying of The
orchard for a few days later. thus be
ing able to spray the whole orchard
without any danger.
The bee keepers in the eastern par
of the state nave been interested il
getting spray legislation enacted which
would cover this phase. The leagu
has felt that there is little need 70
such legislation and it is hoped tina
farmers viii this wear prove to tn
satisfaction Of all in their neighbor
hood VINO have bees that they cal
take care of their spraying CAREFUL
and work hand in hand with the be
keepers. Each is dependent upon tn
other and they should be the closes
of friends.
