One of the few rowing fixtures in the east which will be carried through as in previous years, is the annual regatta on the Charles River, under the auspices of New England Amateur Rowing Association. Although a great many oarsmen have been called to the colors, the Independence Day program promises to furnish many interesting contests. Difficulty in transportation and furnishing boats for visiting crews may prevent the Duluth oaTsmen from competing, but many New Eng land clubs will be well represented in addition to entries sent in by the l local associations.

That the quick thinking and ever resorceful American golfer cannot be phased no matter how awkward the lie into which his ball may drop was cleverly demonstrated a few days ago by Jesse Linton of Pawtucket, R. I. During the open tournament on the links of the Sprinfeld Country Club, Linton, playing the short fourth hole, 136 yards, an island green, saw his ball fall on the top of a stump in the swamp. Linton and his caddie entered the boat which patrols the pond and rowed over to the spot. The player, niblick in hand, took his stand in the boat which had been manoeuvered into position and with a dextrous stroke mhich carried away a portion of rot ting stump dislodged the ball which went flying through some bushes land ing on the green, and Linton was down | in three.

overcrOwding, and soil contamination,
but the young stock reared under such
conditions will grow faster and better.
Where it Is inconvenient to distribute
a large stock as widely as is necessary
to secure permanently the fine SAM,
tary condition of land desired, the
same result is obtained in growth by a
rotation which places young birds al.
ways on land not used for poultry the
preceding year. Z
In backyard poultry keeping scru'
pulOus cleanliness is essential. The
night droppings should be removed
early IN the morning. Those which
fall on the floor of the house and in
the yard should be removed as often
as Is necessary to get them before
they become finely broken and so
mixed with the litter of the floor or
the soil of the yard that much of such
material must be taken up with them.
Frequent turning of the soil in small
yards is desirable, but ought not to be
accepted as proper substitute for re.
moval of droppings there. If these are
simply turned under in soil in which
no vegetation is growing there is ten.
porary Improvement, but after a short
time conditions become so bad that
renewal of the soil to considerable
depth is necessary. Clay soils should
be frequently and literally treated
with lime.
Good sanitation checks the rapid
multiplication of lice and mites, but
does not destroy them. For this the
appropriate insecticides should be
used. In series of tests of insect.
cides by the bureau of entomology
sodium fluorid was found most effec.
tive, completely destroying all lice
present at the time of application, and
making the birds treated immune to
attacks Of lice for some time. The
methods of using sodium fluorid for
lice and of eradicating mites are given
fully In Farmers Bulletin sol.

come exceedingly abundant and de.
structive. Rats migrate from places
where food is scarce to places where
It Is plentiful. Abundant food in the
new locality causes abnormal repro
ductiOn, the effect of which in a short
time is that of a sudden invasion by
a vast horde Of rats.
Other movements of rats are local
and seasonal in occurrence. An exo-
dus takes place every spring from
cities and villages to river banks and
farmsteads In the surrounding coun-
try, and is followed by a return mi
grafton In the autumn. This phenom-
enon, which has been observed almost
everywhere, explains why rats are
more abundant in towns during the
cold season and In larger numbers in
the country during the summer.
That all rodent destruction is prop.
erly the business of the community,
and that this must be recognized be-
fore substantial progress is made, is
asserted by the department investlga-
tors.

enough more at the end of the season
to make the feeding of cake extremely
profitable.
Cold-pressed cake did not give as
satisfactory results as the common cot
tonseed cake, when cold-pressed cake
cost So and cottonseed cake S26 per
ton.
Cottonseed at $14 ton proved some
what more valuable than cOttonseed
cake at $26 ton for feeding to steers
on pasture.
Steers which were fed heavy ra-
ton Of cottonseed cake on pasture and
finished early in July proved far more
profitable than steers which did not
receive as much cake daily, but were
fed for longer time and sold late In
the summer.
The feeding Of cattle on pasture In
creased the size of the gains, caused
the animals to fatten much faster and
smoother, increased their value per
hundredweight, and produced better
carcaSses and higher percentage Of
marketable meat than the grazing Of
steers on pasture alone.

Maple Sugar Value Grows.

The value of the national produc-
ton Of maple sugar and maple strip
has grown from 100000 in 1899,
when the census first ascertained It,
to $12.000,O00 for 1918, according to
the bureau of crop estimates, United
States department of agriculture.
The maple sugar and strip of 1918
were worth five times the cranberry
crop of 1917, one and one-thlrd
times the hop crop, three-fifths of
the sorghum strip made, one-half Of
the buckwheat or flaxseed or onion
crop, one-thlrd Of the oranges, and
One-quarter of the sugar beets.
