Third. swine or forage crops
should always receive supplement
tary ration OF grain.
A study of economy in pork proa
duction quickly shows us that for
every reason, we should provide
abundant forage for swine, especially
breeding stock and young animals.
There are two principal advant-
ages in pasturing rye while 1t is very
young In the first place 1t contains
a higher percentage of protein-that
substance which builds the vital
tissues-and in the second place It
gets so tough as II reaches the
jointing stage that pigs do not swall-
ow it, but they chew 1t up and spit 1t
out.
In speaking of forage crops, we
might stretch the term to include
such crops as COW peas and soy beans
grain feeding proposition. Be that
as 1t may, it has been clearly shown
that pigs turned on soy beans or cow
peas, at the time the beans or peas
reach maturity, must have supple
mentary ration of corn. This sup
Elementary grain should be given at
the rate of two to three per cent
daily of the pigs weight, that is, a
pig weighing 100 pounds should get
two or three pounds of corn per day.
BY this method the Kentucky Ex-
pertinent Station has been able to
produce S25 pounds of pork from an
acre of soy beans, hogged down. 1t
was shown at the same time that soy
beans, for this purpose, are much
more valuable than COW peas The
same experiment showed that hog
ging down soy beans and COW peas
without supplementing them with
grain is very Improbable.

Send Only Mature Animals T
Market.

| Everyone in America is now be-
ginning to realize fully the fact that
great crisis Immediately confronts
us and that it has become imperative
that we guard every resource mo, |
carefully 1t is clearly the duty of
every American to do his absolute
duty, no matter what il is, be il great
/ or small.
The farmer was among the first of
those to whom an appeal was sent
| by the President. 1t will be impossi-
BILE adequately to defend our country
unless the present crop is considerab-
ly in excess of last years production.
| The worlds food reserves are very
low. Even the southern hemisphere
can not supply the deficiency. The
shortage in the worlds food reserves
will be of long duration regardless of
the time at which the war closes.
This insures high prices for stock or
crops; but what could make one
more heartsick than to hear people
discussing profitS at this time of
national peril, when we should all do
our unselfish best?
The prevailing high prices of live
stock have caused farmers to sell
many animals that should have been
kept at home. The markets are re-
ceiving daily large numbers of brood
sows, cows, heifers, veal calves and
immature pigs. This is bad state
of affairs and is sure to bring on
more serious shortage later.
High prices of feed have of course
had a great influence, but we must
remember that there is little differ
ence between feeding corn at $500
per barrel to sixteen cent hogs and
feeding $500 corn to seven cent
hogs.
Another matter that is worth SCR
ious consideration is the matter of
keeping eve lambs for breeding pur-
poses. We should use every means
of avoiding stomach worms and save
our eve lambs as insurance against
a very serious deficit year or two
hence.

and Millet Hay for the

Sorghum and MilIet Hay for the
South.
In the Southeastern States the
sweet sorghums, Sudan grass, millets
and cowpeas are the forage crops
hest suited for summer planting.
The transportation problem, under
present conditions, promises to be
highly important one. 1t is very de-
sirable for this reason that farmers
in the Southeastern States should
grow sufficient hay to feed their work
stock and other farm animals instead
of importing it from other sections OF
the country. BY doing this, the
United States Department OF Agri-
culture states they will relieve the
pressure on transportation agencies
and release large quantities OF
marketable hay for the use of the
army.
The forage crops named succeed
even on the moderately fertile lands
of the South.
II is not ncesary, however, for the
cotton farmer to reduce his acreage
in cotton to insure himself of an
abundance of hay for his own live
stock. Usually there is large
amount of untitled land in the South
and if this were utilized in the pro-
duction of forage there would be an
abundance of hay to supply all home
requirements.
One feature to be considered, IL
Southern farmers are to produce
their own hay, is the cost and scar
city of seed for planting. In par
ticuiar, the price of Sudan grass seed
is so high that it practically prohibits
the seeding of this crop for hay pur-
poses. To a certain extent, this is
true also of the cowpea. On the
other hand, seed or millets and the
sDrghums can be obtained at a much
more reasonable price. These, there
fore, are recommended as the most
satisfactory crops for providing hay
for home consumption in the South
east.
In order to conserve the seed sup
ply of sweet sorghums, it is advised
that the practice of seeding these
sorghums broadcast or in close drills
be discontinued very largely for the
present. Sixty pounds of seed per
acre are required where these crops
are drilled or broadcasted, and only
five pounds if planted in rows and
cultivated. This latter method re-
quires more labor, but the yield per
acr of fodder will equal or exceed
the yield of hay from broadcast or
drilled seedlings, and much larger
acreage can be planted with the same
amount of seed.

Cotton Seed Meal For Laying Chick


Cotton seed. meal in rather limit
C1 amounts has heen fed since last
November with excellent results 10 a
pen of thirty pullets on the expert
ment farm Of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. These
pullets averaged 52.3 eggs each in
twenty weeks, from November to
March 20, which is practically equal
to the best egg yield received this
year from any of the other expert
mental rations. No bad effects have
been noted from this feed, either in
the eggs or in the condition of the
fowls, and the hens eat this feed
freely. The ration is as follows:
Scratch MiXture-One pound each
of cracked corn, wheat and oats.
Dry Mash-Two pounds each of
cotton seed meal and beef scrap, four
pounds bran, FIVE pounds middlings,
nine pounds cornmeal.
The scratch mixture is fed sparlng.
~ SO tAal the mems eat ABOUT equal
parts Of this mixture and of the dry
mash.
A large per cent of cotton seed
meal in a dry mash without any beef
scrap has not given satisfactory re-
suits. Pullets fed a ration with 33
per cent cotton seed meal averaged
only 1872 eggs apiece in one year. A
considerable per cent of these eggs
had discolord yolks, with green or
brownish-green spots, making them
unfit for market, The hens did not
like this mash and had to be forced
TO eat il by feeding a very limited
amount of scratch grains.

Paying Crops To Follow Wheat And
Oats.

After the wheat and oats have
been harvested l grow summer
crop. A large patch planted to Irish
potatoes just after harvesting will
pay a handsome profit this spring.
Peas and beans enrich the soil and
need not be sown as early as harvest
time. Watermelons and muskmelons
can be grown after wheat and oats,
giving first-class crop. Melons also
improve the soil fertility. Peanuts
are a paying second crop in most
Southern States. Then sweet pota-
toes are one of the best paying Sec
ond crops to follow wheat or oats

to appreciate the Importance of this
food in diets for man.
Last year a progressive manufac-
turer of pork and beans mixtures put
out mixture into which soy beans
entered largely. In Baltimore alone
there are at least four Gamers and
other manufacturers putting up soy
beans for human consumption. The
demand for soy beans this coming
fall and winter for food purposes and
the prices are going to be at least

Don't Harvest YOur Wheat Too
Early.


Owing to high prices of -four it
may be the tendency of many farm
ers to harvest their wheat crop early.
In some sections of the State the
crop is promising, but to harvest be-
fore the berry has had time to ma
ture would mean a big loss to the
farmers. Great care should be eX-
ercised in harvesting wheat to get
the largest yields and grain that will
make the best grade of -four.
Wheat should be harvested when
the grain is in the dough stage. At
this stage the berries can be indent-
ed with the finger nails, but they are
not milky. Harvesting at this stage
insures the largest yields. II har-
vesting is begun before the grain is
in the dough stage there will be a
considerable loss due to shrinkage,
and in the poor quality of -four mill
ed from such grain. If harvesting is
deferred until the grain is dead ripe
much grain will be lost by shatter-
ing.
The feeding value of the straw is
decreased il it is cut after the grain
has passed thru the dough stage.

by feeding sour milk to chicks. the
dangers of white diarrhea and other
chick diseases can be greatly reduc-

beneficial influence for the growth OF
chicks and in lessening mortality

be kept before the chicks at all
