Growing Calves for Beef

In order that calves may be qualified
for the production of baby beef, that
is fattened and matured for market
between / and years Of age. they must
have quality and good finish. The con-
sumner does not want the unfinished
yearling, and the calf that does not
have quality viii not take on high
finish. Neither will the calf lacking in
early maturing qualities fatten properly
during the latter part of the feeding Pc
riod. but instead it will use most of the
feed which it consumes for growth The
feeder should keep this in mind and
first determine whether his calves are
good enough to compete on the fat
yearling market. and il he decides that
they are not they should he finished
with coarse feeds and marketed later.
The deep, wide-bodied, thick -fleshed
calf with short legs and an abundance
OF quality as indicated by fneness OF
hair, texture of skin, snloothness Of
flesh. and general refinement about the
head and other parts Of the body, is
the type best suited for making prime
baby beef Uniformity in size, weight,
and color should not be overlooked eth
err, because such factors are an advant-
age in marketing These points are OF
great Importance in selecting calves that
will make rapid gains and return the
most pounds of meat for the amount of
feed given them.

Wheatless Poultry Feed

Every patriotic poultry keeper is anx-
ious to help our allies win the war. Saw
ing wheat for human consumption Is
one way of doing it. Many would cut
out wheat from the poultry ration II
they could be assured of securing profit
able returns from other foods. An in
telligent substitution of other grains
should work no hardship on the poultry
keeper and will at the same time save
wheat.
The department OF agriculture has
been feeding a wheatless poultry ration
In it's regular experimental work, with
results comparing favorably with egg
yields secured on rations containing
wheat The wheatless ration is as fol-
lows: Scratch mixture: Two pounds
cracked corn and one pound oats. Dry
mash Three pounds corn meal and one
pound beef scrap.
The scratch mixture and dry mash
were used in about equal quantities. A
flock Of IS Leghorn pullets fed this
wheatless ration produced an average OF
1873 eggs a piece during their first
laying year showing that wheat Is not
essential for egg laying

go TO WORK OR GO TO JAIL"

The best way to draft farm labor
Assistant Secretary of Agriculture
Clarence Ouslev said not long ago in
an address before the Texas legisla :
ture. rs for you to amend your vag-
rancy law so as to include within its
terms every able bodied man who does
not do six days work each week as a
rule"
In many states of the union, either
by state legislation or local action,
steps have been taken or plans are
Eunder way to require idle men to GO
to work. Farmers know they cannot
increase their food crop production UNI
les sthey have more labor. Town people
know they will suffer Inconvenience or
want and have to pay very high prices
for the reduced rations they are able
Il obuy. If the farmers do not increase
production. And both farmers and
town people know, as all the world
knows, that we can't win the war un-
less we have ample food. So, states
and counties and towns the country
over are determining that this is not
q time, nor theirs place, for the
liberation OF idlers.
For instance, a few weeks ago the
sheriff of Grayson county. Texas. a
thickly populated and highly. produce

for the state legislature TO enact new

First r. F. D. Route
BY BEArnrcn NJ. pARKER

The town of Climax. Mich, recently
unveiled very interesting monument
which stands on the spot where the FIRST
rural free delivery driver in the state OF
Michigan started out. This town was one
OF the first in the United States to have
rural mail service and the first drivers
left the postoffice on December 3, 1896.
One Of the most interesting features
about this monument is that it contains
stone from every farm covered by the
rural free deliveries going out from CHI
max. There are 2d0 of these stones IN
the monument and they are set on a
pedestal of concrete and topped by a
slab of this same material. Above the
monument is a cluster OF four big arc
lights surmounted by flagpole
The first rural free delivery inaugu-
rated in this country was put into opera
ton on October J.. 1895. and went from
Charleston, w. Va, so that the Climax
delivery was only two months later.

From the Prairie Farmer.
In our little town, OH sad to tell,
There is a merchant who doesn't know
how to sell,
A sawyer who doesn't know how to saw,
A teacher who doesn't know how to teach,
A preacher who doesn't know how TO
preach,
A painter who can't paint very well,
A printer who doesen't know how to spell.
An odd-jobs man with never job,
A cobbler who doesn't know how to cob.
A miller who doesn't know how to mill.
A butcher who doesn't know how to kill,
A racer who doesn't know how to race,
A mason who doesn't know how to mace,
A goldsmith who can not mend clock
And a doctor who doesn't know how to
doc;
And, since none of these are busy men

Cotton is now being planted in south
Alabama and as the season progresses,
planting will become general up the state.
reaching the central portion from April
to Is and in northern Alabama from
April 10 to May i. There is an optimistic
feeling on the part of many farmers due
to favorable yields in some localities
last year and the present high prices of
the staple. 1t is well enough to be OPP
timistic on cotton, If YOU have the re-
quired labor in your own household, if
the sea son is favorable and you can feed
your family and live stock year in adj
vance from the products of the farm
without depending on the proceeds of the
cotton crop with which to buy food and
feed. You cannot plant cotton extensive
! ly without neglecting the crops neces-
sary to maintain your Gotten prosperity.
IL there is no other prospect, YOU can
not buy food and feed with cotton money
cheaper than you can grow it. What
will be the condition. IL you fail to grow
food and feed. If the summer is wet and
the boil weevil gets the cotton? What
| IL wheat corn, meat and sugar be-
comes so scarce that money VIII not
buy it? This condition is very likely
to occur and its rapid approach is in-
dictated as the war struggle goes on.
What then. is the safe solution? II is
undoubtedly diversified Warming and in
! Putting II stronger, il means the great
| est number of bales of cotton than can
be grown on few acres
PREPARATION
| Cotton should be planted on well
drained upland The soil should be we'll
| broken six inches deep bedded. well
/ pulverized and allowed to SETTLE il pos
sibfe, before planting. Plant on pea and
bean stubbles where possible. Use stable
manure as far as it Will go Use 800 to
| SEQ pounds of standard commercial fer
\ tilizer per acre. Make rows four feet
apart on most soils and wider where
plants grow large. One of the best ways
of applying fertilizer the writer has ever
found Is to run it in the top of the bed
with a long pillow on the distributor Fol-
low the distributor with a springtooth
or drag harrow and then with the cot
ton planter.
l There are so many varieties and differ
ent names applied to the same variety
as to be Confusing to many farmers. All
short staple varieties may be practical
\ ~ discussed in the two following general
classes: Big boil and little boil varieties.
\ These may be divided into two classes
Iaccording to their maturity, early big
boil and late big boil; early little boil
and late little boil Some of these var-
| cites are wilt resistant and some are not
Some of them have other advantages an&
disadvantages, depending very much on
| the management and efforts of the grow :
er. There is absolutely no such thing
as bill weevil proof cotton. The only real
practical advantage that any cotton has
over boil weevil is earliness, and must
be planted at the proper time and backed
UP by proper preparation, fertilization
and cultivation if it succeeds, The prin-
4 cipal things a farmer wants to know
are whether the variety Is early or late,

be used, smaller holes punched and the
outline varied to the square or oblong.
Holes should be punched in these every

may be sewed along the vertical lines,
the horizontal lines, and diagonaEly
Simple pictures may also be outlined for
sewing. With some of the cords the child
should be allowed to sew whatever ne

balls on his piece of paper, perhaps two
large balls. or one large and one small

discovers that it is possible to use diff
