AID FOR POULTRY CAMPAIGN
Fifty-Cne Experienced PouItrymen
Employed as Emergency Workers
in Thirty Three States.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agricultural
Fifty-One experienced pOultrymen
are employed as emergency workers
to aid in carrying out the department
of agriculture's program for the slim
ulation of poultry and egg production.
Most of these men have had 10 years
experience or more in the industry.
Seventeen have been in poultry work
for 20 to 20 years, and four have been
in the industry 80 years or more.
Included in the workers are poul-
tryman of international reputation, a
vfce-president of the American Poultry
association, several editors of poultry
publications and a number of we'll
known judges of poultry. All have
had practical experience in handling
and breeding fowls and more than
few are experienced breeders of ex-
hibitfon standardized poultry.
In cooperation with the state agri-
cultural colleges of 33 states these
men are urging everyone who is in q
position to do so to keep poultry and
to handle it in such way as to
obtain maximum results.

INCREASED FLocKs ON FARM
Ways Outlined Of Fastening Develop.
ment OF Sheep Rusiness-Source
Of Wool and Meat.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture0
Though much is yet to be done to i'm
prove the carrying capacity Of the
western range lands and to furnish IA
c1litieS for increasing the production
from those areas that should always
be used for grazing, and though the
possibilities of sheep raising on cut
Ovet timber lands are very great, neith-
er OF these advances can be made to
contribute so extensively and so quick
~ to market supplies as an increase
of f1ocks on the farms of all parts of
the country. Only one-tenth Of all
holdings now classed as farms main
tain sheep. The establishment of fiocks
on as many as possible of the other
farms that are suitable for sheep offers
the greatest opportunity for quick re-
suits.
This is not wholly war matter.
When peace comes it will still be nee
essary for farmers to accord greater
Importance to live stock. The require
ments of the country and the most eco
nOmical use of farm crops and farm
labor call for a much more general

tirely aside from the war situation.
The magnitude of such an undertak-
ing argues against large results in a
short time, but if the true facts and
prospects can be adequately realized
by farmers, within a space of two
years it can be expected that the sup
ply of both wool and meat will be in
creased materially.
An obstacle to any increase in the
number and size Of farm fiocks is found
in the prevalent idea that wool and
meat prices, after the war, will recede
quickly to low levels and cause loss
to those who have invested in higher
priced stock for breeding purposes.
The statistics of the world supplies
and requirements, however, and the
trend of prices prior to the war indi-
cate that we already had entered a
new era with regard to the live stock
industry. While it is not possible to
give a guarantee as to future values,
the great use of wool by all countries

TO INCREASE SUGAR SUPPLY
Recommendations Given for Mantle
nance and Extension of Domestic
Cane-Suqar Output.

(Prepared by the United States Depart

The growers Of cane and sugar beets
can materially increase the nations
supply of sugar by giving better care to
their crops so that the yields will be
Increased. Following are recOmmen-
dations for the maintenance and extern
sion of the domestic cane-sugar supply :
Extend the cane-grOwing areas; use
better cultural methods; adopt crop
rotation system; improve cane varfe-
ties; control diseases and insects; util-
lie more by-products; feed tops and
leaves to live stock; substitute cane
sirup for sugar; improve the grade Of
sirup; produce raw sugar to conserve
the refined sugar.
To maintain and increase the domes-
tic beet-sugar output the following rec
concentrations are given:
Improve cultural methods; practice
proper methods of crop rotation and
cultivation; feed by-products to live

at war undoubtedly will dep1ete stocks
rapidly, and this will tend to influence
! the market for some time to come.
The belief that sheep do not have a
place upon high-priced, highly produc-
tive land also is inapplicable at pres
ent. 1t is true that the development
of the sheep industry on the rougher,
cheaper, or drier types of land has
prevented and in some cases destroyed
the business of sheep raising upon
farms of high productive capacity.
Conditions now are changed. The
sheep today provides a profitable
source of meat no less than an income
from the sale of wool.
The large use Of forage and pastur-
age and the small use of grain favor
the keeping of a flock on the farm.
Sheep are most profitable and most
healthy when kept upon pasture lands
or used for grazing off such forage
crops as cereal mixtures, rape, cow
peas, etc. Where large grass pastures
are available the forage crops may not
be required, but under common farm
conditions the forage crops will have
a part in the best flock husbandry.
With good roughages, made up in part
of leguminous hays, little grain is need
ed for wintering breeding stock, and If
ewes do not lamb until they go to pas
ture grain may be wholly eliminated
from winter rations. Lambs are most
in demand and most proftably disposed
of when weighing from Is to 80 pounds.
Ordinarily the lower weight will be
reached at from four to five months
of age and. without the use Of grain
if stock is Of good breeding and kept
upon good pasturage. The lamb car
cass requires less fat to render it. suit
able for the table than is necessary I'M
any other class of meat. This fact
particularly adapts sheep raising to Sec
tons that are not adapted to produc-
ton of grains but can furnish good pas
turage and forage crops. It also en-
ables the flock to produce a cash re-
turn from forage crops and other graz
ing included in a diversified plan of
cropping. The rapidity with which
lambs attain marketable weight fnsures
very quick returns at low cost.
The comparatively small amount OF
labor required in caring for sheep Is
another argument in favor of the farm
aOek.

Demonstrations of the sort are Of

bear witness that there is great de-

throughout the warm weather. The
effect of crude oil or wood preserva-
tive is much more lasting.
Inasmuch as lice spend a greater
part of their time on the fowls, the
most effective treatment is that which
is. applied directly to the birds. The
cleanliness of the house, however, is
OF equal Importance if the lice are to
be gotten rid of entirely. The two
most practical methods of fighting lice
are busting or using paste or an Oint-
ment. Provide good dust box con-
tanning mixture of road dust or wood
ashes and allow the hens to dust them
selves. busting the hens by hand Is
effective and is especially recommend
cd for setting hens and fowls that are
very much infested with lice. A good
homemade dust or louise powder is
made by mixing together one and one
malt pints of gasoline and one pint Of
crude carbolic acid with four quarts
VI plaster of Paris. Allow it to dry,
crush to a powder, and work it well
lnto the feathers by hand.

house that is kept clean and has plen-

Of lime in 20 gallons OF water. Add
