The Fly Campaign.

The Missouri College of Agri-
culture has received many re-
quests for suggestions in con-
Quoting fly campaigns. Obser-
walton of the following steps
will bring effective results.
(1) Kill as many flies as pos
sible when they appear in
spring. These first flies are the
parents of the millions of germ
laden flies that will make life
miserable turnout summer. One
fly killed early in the spring is
equal to millions killed in Au-
gust or September.
(2) Endeavor to prevent flies
from breeding or feeding on the
premises. Some flies will es-
cape because they will breed in
decaying vegetable matter or in
the droppings Of animals in the
pastures. However these will
be almost negligible.
(3) Fly traps are essential.
They catch the flies coming
from breeding places and thus
prevent their migrating to the
house.
(4) Enlist the cooperation of
all dealers in food supplies.
Show them the danger from
flies and what may result from
unsanitary surroundings of
their premises. If necessary,
patronize only those dealers who
keep their premises and their
products properly screened.
They will soon clean their prem
Uses and eliminate flies if the
campaign is brought to them in
this financial light.
(5) Endeavor to obtain COM
munity cooperation in the fly
campaign. Do not be discour-
aged if a few people cannot be
induced to clean up their prem.
ises. As soon as they see that
the campaign is effective they
will readily cooperate.

BRITISH SEEK SHIPS HERE.
Contract TOtalling $4O,OOO,O 900
Is Reported as SiHned.

In order to replace some of her
merchant ship tonnage, the Brit
ish Government has begun the
distribution to American ship
building interests Of contracts
totalling more than $500, 000,-
900. The first contract, accord
ing to an apparently authentic
report on behalf of the Cunard
Line, has been signed, providing
for thirty ocean going vessels of
varyiny tonnage at a total cost
of $40, 900,
What the British Government
desires most, according to ship
ping interests, are ships now
building in American yards on
speculation which will be bought
irrespective of what may devel-
OPP in the new shipping act and
will run under the American flag
if necessary.
The boats already contracted
for range from $500 to 10000
tons. Six are being built in the
yards of the Seattle Construc-
ton and Dry Dock Company, a
subsidiary of the Todd Ship
yards Corporation. Several will
be built by the Northwest Steel
Company and the Union Iron
Works at San Francisco; one in
the yards of the Maryland Steel
Company at Sparrows Point
and several by the Fore River
Shipbuilding Company.

SOybean a Promising Crop for
Missouri.

The soybean is one of the best
forage plants among the le-
gumes and it exceeds any of the
legumes in the production of
seed, altho it is now grown
largely for it's abundant yield of
rich forage. The high value of
its seed offers the most prom
ising possibility for the future
use of the soybean as a seed
crop according to w. G. Ethe-
ridge Of the Missouri College of
Agriculture.
Soybean seed are the richest in
crude protein of any seed used
for feeding, are extremely high
in fat and are highly digestible.
Feeding experime have
shown soybean seed meal to be
slightly superior to cottonseed
meal for dairy COWS and only
slightly inferior to cottonseed
meal for fattening cattle. Soy
beans are also an excellent feed
for horses, sheep and pigs. 1t
must be understood however
that soybean meal is a highly
concentrated heterogeneous feed
and as such must be fed sparing-
ly-in about the same ratio to
other feeds as cottonseed meal
is fed.

County Agents Are in Demand.

County Agents Are in Demand.
Linn, Pike and Nodaway
counties are making efforts to
obtain county agents with the
cooperation of the college of
Agriculture of the University Of
Missouri. There are now thir-
teen county agents in Missouri
and many more counties are
making inquiries in regard to
the methods of obtaining these
agents.
The summary of the work done
by the county agents in 1916
has been compiled by the Col
lege of Agriculture. Twelve
thousand acres of corn were
planted with tested seed last
year. More than 1000 acres
were planted for silage under
their direction. The reports
shows that 789 farmers follow
ed in detail the plans suggested
by the agents, and that $4,000
letters giving advice and ans
wering inquiries were sent out.
