PREVENT DISEASE IN STOCK
Sanitation and Good Feeding Method
Help Reduce Losses.

Proper feeding and sanitation are
two important preventives OF disease
losses in farm animals If carefully
applied these measures may prevent
many losses of meat animals. Keep
the animals sturdy and disease-resist-
ant by feeding a good, wholesome diet
Young animals need particular care
and should be kept growing A bal
anced ration should be fed-one that
contains enough digestble protein to
supply the needs of bone and muscle
growth.
The farmer should carefully consid
er the food requirements of his ami
mails, as has been shown by the State
experiment stations, in standard farm
animal books, and by the United
States Department OF Agriculture.
Green feeds have a tonic as well as
nutritive value and should be used
wherever possible. With some feeds

sheep and hogs, respectively. Pure
water is another essential to animals
health. Animals should not have &C
cess to water which may be contami-
mated such as streams passing through
injected farms above, pools drained
from barn lots, and SO on.
Two naturally hygienic factors are
fresh air and sunlight. Pure fresh air
constantly avail~ble to ar animal re-
duces the possibility OF lung trouble
Impure dir reduces an animals resist
anoe to disease By failing to supply the
oxygen necessary for the publication
OF the blood. Sunlight is natural
germicide and will keep arimll sur
roundings free from disease germs
All buildings for housing farm animals
should be well ventilated and have
plenty OF sunlight reaching to all parts
OF the building at some time during
the day. When weather permits, the
animals should be kept outside as
much as possible. Yards. lots, pens
and buildings should be kept clean
and may be made freer OF disease by
the use OF lime and standard disinfect-
ants. shing the inside OF the
building, scattering lime over the floor
and ground. and spraying with disin-
fectants those places accessible to ami
mails but inaccessible to sunlight will
aid sanitation and promote the welfare
OF the farmer.

ROADSIDES FOR PASTURE
Some Can Be Used to Produce Hay
Fine Pasturage Often Wasted

Many thousands of miles OF DAD
sides are on productive soil and should
b used for food production. To use
the roadsdes will involve little labor
and no large expenditure.
Some roadsides can be used to pro-
duce hay; such crops as sweet clover,
red clover and grasses are often found
growing rankly along the roads and
can be cut for hay. These crops are
usually allowed TO waste, though some
farmers utilize them. One farmer in
Missouri always cuts the sweet clover
from roadsides adjacent to his farm
before it gets woody. Along lime
stone roads clover often grows more
rankly owing to the sweetening effect
OF the road dust on the soil acidity
On some roadsides, by little seeding
or by clipping the weeds, the more
valuable hay crops can be produced.
Pasturing the roadsides usually Of
icrs the best way Of utilizing therl
Many roadsides are too rough to be
moved. and farm labor is scarce, Many
fine pasture plants grow along th'
roads. Bluegrass and white clover
frequently take the roadsides. to the
exclusion of weeds. Bermuda grass
Japan clover, and other plants OF good
grazing qualities are found along the
southern roads. Wild grasses through
out other parts OF the country are a
bundaI along roads. The pasturage
Of roadsides can be increased by keep
ing the weeds down by moving oc-
casionally with machine or scythe.
The farm pastures can be rested and
are not so liable to overgrazing when
the roadsides are used. Pasturing the
roadsides does not call for much lab
or Cattle and sheep can be grazed
along them and valuable beef, milk,
wool. and mutton produced. The old
mich COW may be tethered out, or the
farm cattle. herded by children, past
ured along the roads. The farm flock
of sheep will need to be herded, but
will clip the roadside more closely and
retard the growth of noxious weeds
Farmers who use these waste spaces
will help produce cheaper milk and
meat. reduce weeds. remove winter
ing place for insects, and in addition

PLANT PUMPKINS IN CORN

Pumpkins planted in corn furnish a
cheap appetizing stock feed. They
should be planted by the latter part OF
June, putting pumpkin seed in every
sixth hill and in every missing corn
hill. Pumpkins will affect but slight
ly the stand OF corn and large
amount of fine stock feed can be
raised.
Pumpkins are relished by cattle and
hogs. Fed, uncooked and with the
seeds, they act as an appetizer and
corrective OF digestive troubles. Two
and one half tons of uncooked pump
kins are equal 40 ton OF corn silage
to cattle 1t has been found that 273
pounds OF grain and $40 pounds OF
pumpkins produced 100 pounds OF
pork, the pumpkins saving 100 to l5Q
pounds OF grain. The low cost OF
growing, ease of keeping, large yields
and the tonic qualities OF succulent
iced available when succulent hog feed
are scarce make pumpkins well worth
while

BRANCH OF INSECT CONTROL

To enlarge the campaign toward
the control of insects infesting stor
ed food products, new Section has
been organized in the Bureau of En-
tomology Of the United States De
partment of Agriculture. The Sec
rotary of Agriculture has appointed
to the new position DR.. f. A. Back,
of the Bureau, as entomologist in
charge OF stored product insect inves

DR. Back has left Washington to
investigate the the grain and food

try. He will study present storage
conditions and determine the needs
as they relate to insect control FOR
the proper care of the food crops af-

BROOD soWs
Summer Breeding. Feeding. and Man.
agement-Raise Two Litters a Year

The practice of having brood sows
produce two litters year, as followed
n some OF the hog raising sections OF
our country. should be encouraged,
except where short seasons and severe
winter weather prevent, the swine
pecialsts of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture advise.
Sows intended to farrow fall filters
should be bred not later than the end
Of June Those that are in breeding
condition after weaving their spring
liter should be bred the first timethey
ONE in heat There are generally
'ew sows in the herd that are thin and
.-un down in condition after weaving,
md these should be fed little heav-
Ter for a few weeks before breeding to
insure a large litter in the fall. The
late OF breeding should be recorded
so a. to determine the date of farrow.
The CESSATION period of sow is III
TO lis days The sows should be
watched closely to see if they come in
ieat after they are once bred, so that
hey can be rebred. The heat period
; every p days.
After the sows are bred they should
be turned into pasture and fed very
title grain during the first part of the
ummer. Breeding stock must be
;ept hard and healthy and to accom-
plish this roughages must constitute
, large part of the ration. Alfalfa,
clover. bluegrass. and Bermuda are
permanent pasture crops which fur
nsh excellent summer feed for sows.
Rape, soy beans, cowpeas, and sor-
gum are especially adapted for swine
feeding. Their use will reduce the
neoe ssary daily grain ration to one
pound or less per hundredweight OF
SOW during the grazing season
which is large saving in favor of
pasture. Plenty OF water, shade, and
pace to exercise are other essen
tials for the production OF strong,
healthy litters.
The sows can run together in the
same pasture within two or three
weeks OF the narrowing date. AT
This time those that are due to farrow
should be separated from the herdand
placed in separate paddock or pen,
where they can farrow their pigs un-
disturbed
Keep the SOW on pasture>if posi-
BILE, and provide dry, well ventilated
quarters free from draft in which she
can farroW the pigs

A JULY 4 PROPHECY.
Sixty nine Years Ago an Enthusiast
Predicted Downfall of Thrones,

The Fourth of July will he cele
brated with great enthusiasm. Pa
triOtism has received new impulses b.
the glOries of our war with Me.io,
and the revolutions among the ro.te
and tottering thrones Of Europe
Thus sixty nine years ago a write,
in New York periodical voiced hi,
patriotism. 1t was July 4, 1913. Ii,
wrote thus:
The Mexican war has been glorious
not so much on account Of its vic
tories and cOnquests as for the eXhi
bition OF patriotism and heroic valoi
and devotion from one end If tn
country to the other. Ii has shown
the power CT popular government
and taught both the monarchies and
the people Of other lands that thrones
and aristocracies and large standing
armies are not necessary to great
and powerful nation. The right Of
self government is shown to be con-
nected with the power Of maintain
ing It."
