FOR CLOSED SHOP YARDS

Washington, June 19.-In defending
the United States employment service
before joint meeting. today, Of the
house and senate labor committees, Sec
retary Wilson denied that the labor de-
partment was being operated solely in

been q systematic and persistent cam

against the employment service. because
of its efforts to recruit only union men

He explained that, under contracts made
between the shipyard owners and labor
organizations in Seattle, in which the
government had no part, these yards
were operated by union labor only and
declared that, in view of this condition,
it would have been "a crime to have sent
non union men to Seattle in the hope
Of finding work.

Methods of Destroying Lice on Hogs
j. j. H, Americas, Ga, writes: What

two cuttings of hay before frost? Would
like any suggestions You can give me in
regard to making hay from cowpeas.
Under favorable seasonal condi-
lions one can sometimes secure two
crops Of cowpeas in a single year.
To this end one should plant the
peas as early as possible, that is,
just as soon as the ground is warm
enough to insure their prompt germ
nation. We would advise you TO
SOW the Warrens Extra Early or the
New Era, as we have found these
satisfactory for use where we hoped
to obtain two cuttings in a year.
AS a rule, when planted early cow
peas may be cut for hay some time
IN July. Much depends on seasonal
conditions. In the event we have
a fairly rainy summer, that is, a
well distributed rainfall, even
though 1t be not excessive, gOou
aftermath will often develop and one
may secure fairly good second
crop of hay, or gather a fine crop
of peas. AS a rule the second crop
does not vine anything like as
much as the first crop, but gem
orally yields seed more freely than
the first crop.
Our experience in making peavine
hay leads US to believe that it is a
good thing to drive three stakes into
the ground, forming a sort of tri-
angle, and piling the peas thereon.
This forms a sort of Yentilating
shaft up through the pile of pea
vines and enables them to be cured
out to better advantage. We would
not undertake to make peaVine hay
unless we had caps Of heavy can
vass to put over the pile Of peavines.
We would not cut peavines for hay
production until the end of the pod
is yellow and the lower leaves begin
to turn yellow as we'll. When in
this condition the vines contain less
moisture than at almost any other
stage and can be cured more easily.
In our experience it has proved
desirable to grow peavines with
millet or some other forage crop

Materials Suitable for Top Dressing
H. A. H., Old Spring Hill, Ala,
writes: 1 would like information in
regard to top dressing with nitrate of
soda. l would like to get some for
my corn and cotton this year. How
much should be used per acre and when
applied!
1t is not exactly clear from the
context OF your letter Just what III
formation you wish to secure con-
corning ferrilizing materials suitable
for use as a top dressing. My under
standing IS to the effect that nitrate
of soda and sulphate OF ammonia
are both now retailing at approx
mately $4,000 per ton. They Will
both answer very well for top dress
ing purposes.
Top dressers are valuable prin-
cipally on cereal crops. One intend
ing to use either of the ABOVE named
materials on oats or wheat Should
make the application about the loth
of February to the first Of March.
Our experience indicates that 100
pounds per acre would be about the
right amount to use. We would Sc
lect some nice clear morning when
the ground and the plants are rea-
sonahly dry and scatter the fertilizer
over the top of the land as uniformly
as possible. 1t should not be work
cd into the soil, as the capillary
water rising to the surface will in
sure it's quick disappearance and
solution in the soil water. In the
course of a week or two you will
see the effect of the application i'll
the improverd color and vlgor OF
the crop to which it is applied
Either one of these materials may be
used as a complete fertilizer under
corn and cotton, or in the form Of
side application to these crops. We
advise the use OF at least 100 pounds
per acre for this purpose. On cot
ton we would put the material on
when the plants are chopped to a
stand and growing vigorously. On
corn. the application should be made
before it becomes knee high. We
do not believe that as rule it is
advisable to use these materials
separately on corn or cotton, but
rather in combination, we will say
with twice as much high-grade acid
phosphate as you use of the nitrogen
Gus carrier you select.
We regard sulphate of ammonia as
little cheaper as a source of nitro
gen than nitrate of soda, by reason
of the fact that each hundred pounds
of this material contains 20.5 pounds
of available nitrogen, whereas the
nitrate of soda contains but 1915 per
cent. You understand, of course,
there are many other carriers Of
nitrogen which could be used with
advantage. The two materials men
toned stand out as possessing viz
tues which make them of peculiar
value as top dresSerS.

course be thoroughly boiled and
cooled. The solution is injected into
the udder by means of a glass fun
mel to which is attached a rubber
tube and glass tip. After it has re-
manned in the udder for a few min
utes it should be milked out on the
ground.

clean and disinfect the stable thor

is a good thing. The manager should
