RETAIN BEST POULTRY STOCK
Sell Everything That Is Not Ffrsa
Class, Keeping All High Pro-
ducers for Breeding.

Two factors are working to reduce
the stock of poultry on hand. One ID
the high price Of poultry, both live
and dressed, which obtains ar present.
and the other is the high price Of
feeds. The latter condition will likely
continue throughout the year. From
reports received, we find that in many
places farmers are selling practically
their entire stock because of these two
conditions. Under ordinary clreumj
stances. we believe this to be q mis-!
take and that it will be we'll for our
readers to retain their usual amount
of laying and breeding stock. I
In all probability, eggs will continue
to bring good prices and, even though
grain is high, the price of eggs viii
probably parallel it. Those who sell
off and depend upon buying their
eggs or breeding stock in the spring
in order to replenish their flocks win
run the chance of being disappointed!
Our advice is, don't sell too closely.
However. the standing advice always
In order, is: Sell. everything that IL
not first-class stock.-Pennsylyanis

No one is better situated to raise

There are many stories told about
the size to which capons grow, while
the truth is that the ordinary capon
will grow to but one or two pounds

A set Of tools for caponizing costs
$1.5O to So, and with each set are sent
directions that anyone can follow.
After the caponizing the cockerela
become docile and quiet; they lose
ambition and their combs cease to
grow. In fact, they shrivel, and when
fed they eat their fill and sit quietly
around until feeding time again.
Capons always retain that sweet.
ness and juiciness of flesh that are
characteristic of the spring chicken
the reason they bring such high
price.
They are fed much as other fowls
would be, only eating more. About all
they eat goes to the formation of juicy.
palatable flesh.

only one kind of rust is found, and
this is rarely serious.
The Oat rusts are very commonly
present and sometimes cause severe
epidelnics in certain oat-growing
states. OF the wheat rusts the most
important one at the present time is
the stem rust, commonly called the
"black rust" which was the cause of

has been found in the western part of
the United States, but not as yet east
of the Rocky mountains except in east
ern Wyoming. 1t is common rust
in Europe and considered serious
disease. If it continues to spread in
this country, and If it proves as seri-
GUS an enemy to wheat here as it has
in Europe. it is possible that it will
add materially to the rust troubles Of
our cereals.
Grasses as Rust Plants.
The life histories of the rusts are
sometimes complex. This is especial
ly true Of the most important of the
wheat rusts; namely, the stem rust. 1t
may pass part Of its existence on an
ornamental shrub known as barberry,
Berberis vulgaris, where it produces
rust spores in May or June. These
rust spores may infect wheat or other
cereals. The stem rust may also in
its red and black stages live on many
common wild grasses. It is also
fact that the stem rusts of the other
cereals may also pass their spring
stage on the barberry plant. Although
the rust may live over the winter on
grass plants or may be brought up in
the early spring from the South with.

plants, nevertheless, barberry plants
serve as an active means of spreading
the rust In a very vigorous fashion.

permitted in the neighborhood of any
grain-growing farms and, in fact, II

the grain-growing states at least. The
