Field and Farm
Our ranchmen are still hunting high

that will make suitable pasture to with

alfalfa and grasses, such q timothy,

have been successful when the facilities
for irrigation have been adequate. The
grasses grow vigorously and the alfalfa

but natural that they should not inter-

thrive on the fertility added to the soil
through the growth and decay Of the
alfalfa. If to be cut for hay only, two
crops could be obtained in season from
these mixtures, because the grasses are

QUALITY COUNTS WITH EGGS
Annual Loss Runs Into Millions
Through Marketing Poor Article
During Summer Months.

Quality counts, not sometimes, but
always" and is as true with market
eggs as with any other commodity.
The farmers annual loss through the
marketing of poor eggs during the
summer months mounts into the mil
lions in the aggregate and is wholly
unnecessary. Because of the presence
of so many spoiled eggs coming from
the farms the buyer is compelled to
pay lower prices as the poor eggs
are sorted out by him and must be
disposed of at figures far below the
market price of good eggs.
Why should not the farm producer
first endeavor to produce good eggs
and then sort them himself and know
positively that he is selling only first
quality eggs? The Gambling of eggs
Is the final test and can be easily done
by anyone. Arrange a common paste
board shoe box to stand on end over
a small lighted lamp. Make a hole
slightly smaller than an egg in one
side of the box directly opposite
the lamp flame and give ventilation
to the lamp by removing the end of
the box over the lamp and you are
ready to candle eggs accurately.
To produce good first quality eggs
the essentials are healthy hens; good,
wholesome food; clean nests; daily
gathering Of eggs and the removal
of all males from the laying flock
After this the eggs must be kept
In cool, moist temperature. Given
these conditions of production and
handling, with careful Gambling be
fore marketing, any farm poultryman
may be certain that he is Offering
only a first quality product that may
command the best prices.

Potato bugs are very easily con-

from the store in your town, in which
spraying materials are handled.
Mix the poison according to the di-

small quantity is wanted. use about
a teaspoonful of the poison to large

this may not be true in all cases.

A weak, wobbly gait, especially in
the hind legs. the animal often reel

Dark red, blue or purplish discolora-

When the disease is acute, death
may come in four to seven days.
Sometimes, however, the attack is so
virulent that hogs are found dead be-
fore the owner knows they are sick.
At other times the disease takes on a
chronic form, the animals dying at in
tervals through a period of several
months.

moderately. Reading advanced a
point. Dealings in the Liberty IL

undertone.
Prices soon developed decided irreg-
