Practically every farmer can plant
and cultivate a larger acreage than
he can harvest.
When the harvest season comes he
is overworked.
Also, he has to depend on transient
labor which, many times, is bother
some and unreliable.
And, after all, considerable por-
ton of the crop may have to go to
waste because it can not be gathered
in time.
The hog, helped ont by cattle and
sheep when practicable, is an excel
lent labor equalizer.
He harvests the corn crop more eff
GENTLY than the transient farm hand
can be expected to do it-and does
not have to be superintendent by the
owner of the farm.
He is equally efficient in harvesting
rye, or clover. or alfalfa, or soy beans.
or COW peas
When the farmer makes use of the
cooperative quality OF the hog he
has more time for essential tasks,
more time to look out for his own
health and happiness and that of hi
family. makes more money on the
years operations, and has better
ground for the next years crops.
The farm that depends on trans
lent laborers as harvesters is likel!
to grow poorer year by year. The
farm that uses hogs as harvesters is
certain to grow more fertile with
every crop.

Fall Feeding of Dairy Cows.

The wise dairyman will feed liber-
ally during the fall months. Cows
which are not well fed at this time
will go into the winter thin in flesh
and with reduced milk flow. 1t will
be expensive and largely in vain to
attempt to bring them back to nor
NAL flow after they go on winter ra-
tions.
1t will pay to begin feeding silage
and hay early. The extra feed given
at this time will not bring good. i'm
mediate returns, but affect the milk
flow for the whole year by putting
the COW in good condition to go thru
the winter months. Cows which go
into the winter in good vitality and
with undiminished milk flow, are the
ones which will make most eeonomi-

New Farmer Is Coming.

The new farmer is coming. The
old farmer who learned everything
by hard knocks and bitter experience,
will go. The old farmer, who did an
enormous amount of heavy work for
many hours each day, has almost
passed. In his place the new farmer,
who will save his muscles with ma
chinery and who will get an educa-
ton other than one of hard knocks,
will come.
1t may be that this new farmer will
not be able to put away any more
money than the old farmer. but he
will most certainly have a better
chance to get pleasure and happiness
out OF his life. Machinery will keep
his face from being turned continual

Inspecting Egg Shipments To Enforce
Federal Law.


Interstate shipments of eggs are be-
ing watched closely during the hot
summer months by the Federal food
inspectors of the Department of Agri-
culture in order that appropriate ac-
ton may be taken when such ship
ments violate the law.
Shipments containing eggs which
have yOlks stuck to the shell. moldy
eggs, black spots. mixed rots, added
eggs, and any other eggs which are
filthy, decomposed, or putrid are in
violation of the law.
Careful Gambling before shipment
will enable dealers to eliminate the
bad eggs. The eliminGtii,i OF the
spoiled or partially spoiled eggs be-
fore shipment not only removes the
hazard of violating Federal and State
food laws, but is economical in that
it saves shipping charges on eggs
likely to be rejected at place of re-
ceipt. A number of States have laws
~ regulations specifically requiring
the Gambling of all eggs placed on
sale.
Directions as to how to candle eggs
as well as information regarding the
best methods of packing, shipping,
and storing eggs. will be sent upon
request to the Department of Agricul-
ture, Washington, ID. C.

Rye sown this autumn on fields 70

soil because of heavy toll and the
great distances he must travel to
transact business, for machinery will
be at hand to travel and work for

This new farmer is coming. In
fact, he has been on the way for some

advancing price of crops and stock

have machinery to overcome the lack

Spiccd Vinegar Gives Good Pickle
Flavor

Spiced vinegar is used in making
pickles, for flavoring gravies, potato
salad. and similar dishes. For pick
ling it is especially valuable, as the
flavor from spiced vinegar is the same
all through the pickles, while If pep
per, cloves, and dill are added direct
ly to the pickles the flavor is more
concentrated at the places where
these spices are put. The herbs
from which the spiced vinegar is
made may be used as a garnish by
mixing them in the pickle.
An excellent spiced vinegar is made
by filling a wide-mouthed bottle or a
fruit jar to within two inches of the
top with spiced plants of different
kinds, such as slices of hOrse-radish
and onions, umbels of dill, ripe seed
OF white mustard and celery, green
seed of nasturtiums, fine stems and
leaves of tarragon, basil, and sweet
marjoram. A pod of red pepper
may also be added. The bottle or
jar is then filled with vinegar, heated
TO 100 degrees F., corked or sealed
and left for about three weeks. At
the end of the three weeks, strain the
vinegar and fill in small bottles.

Cold. uncomfortable cows will not
make economical use of feed. Their
highly developed nervous systems are
very susceptible to sudden changes
In temperature. This should be borne
in mind in the fall, when the first
cold rains and cold winds come. Pro-
lection from these will prevent the

always cause. DO not waste feed

The size of the flock which can be
most efficiently kept will depend first
of all upon the space available, and.
secondly, upon the amount of table
scraps or other waste which is
available for feed. 1t is a mistake to
try to Overstock the available space.
Better results will be obtained from
few hens in a small yard than from
a larger number. The backyard
poultry flock rarely will consist of
over 30 or 25 hens. and in many
cases of not more than s or 10, or
occasionally of only or 4. For a
FLOCK Of 20 to - hens a soace OF not
less than % by 80 #. should be avail
able for a yard. Where less space is
available. the size of the flock should
be reduced, allowing on the average
20 to 80 square feet per bird. A few
hens are sometimes kept successfully
with a smaller yard allowance than
this, but if the space is available a
yard of the size indicated should be
used.
