Strikes Take Place In Japan.

Labor troubles are taking place in
Japan At a gold mine in Shizuoka pre-
lecture, 100 miners went on strike re-
Gently and, armed with pickaxes and
shovels, raided the residences Of the
mine officials and destroyed or dam
aged the buildings and furniture. The
local police force suppressed the riot
ers. The cause Of the trouble is dis
satisfaction over wages.
Over 1000 women and girls en-
ployed in a big silk factory at Uyeda
have gone on strike for higher wages.
Similar occurrences are reported from
various parts of the empire. One
cause of the unrest is the soaring of
rice, which is now higher than last
summer when the country was in

Good Canning Record

T have dressed myself, paid for music lessons, bought books and thrift stamps, helped my mother, who is a widow, and have enough to pay my expenses in col 1ege next year." was the answer of club girl in Franklin county, North Car olina, when asked how she had used the money she had made in canning dur ing the past five years.
 This girl, Monnie Stallings, a member of a canning club conducted by the United States Department of Agriculture and the North Carolina Agricultural college, has a fine five-year canning record She joined canning club in the spring of 1914, when the work was new and canned $50 No. cans of tomatoes from her tenth-acre that year. She was award ed the medal for the largest number of jars canned from tenth-acre plot, and also won number of merchandise prizes The next year she canned 1000 cans, and again won the medal for canning the largest number of cans in the county. Her exhibit in glass won SIG in cash prizes. Tn 1916 her canning exhibit won several prizes, a pure-bred Jersey heifer. worth s100; a college scholarship in do- mestic science, and s in cash. The fourth year 1900 cans were filled. and an exhibit of them won blue ribbons at her township fair and s27 in cash at the county fair In the summer of 1918, all though it was bad fruit year in North Carolina, she canned 1000 cans and won a medal and subscription to magazines.

 ficial report for Alabama as Of June l. The condition of cotton on May 70 was 7s per cent of normal. running rom "A per cent in the eastern part or the
 black belt to s3 per cent III the sou,n central North Alabama as whole ; showed a condition of 77 per cent; the black belt condition was 75, while south Alabama was Sl. The estimated amount of fertilizer used on cotton this year was an average or l9s pounds per acre, which cost an aver age of s4 66, or at the rate Of s4i-5o per ten The highest amount was used III the east central district, an average Of s2i- mounds, while the lowest was in the west ern part of the black belt. an aver age of 15o pounds. This is slightly more than the average amount used last year. preliminary estimate of the acreage planted to oats shows decrease or 10 per cent from last year. and indicates
 total acreage of 507O0o, which com pares with 5S3,0C0 planted last year ana ] 42s. eco harvested The condition of oats
 was s5 per, cent of normal. indicating
 q total production of 10.901 600 bushels The condition of wheat on June l was sS per cent of normal, representing a deterioration of 8 per cent during the month This is accounted for by the fact that the harvesting of wheat discloses ligtter lead than was previously believed to exist. The condition in the Tennessee valley retained it's high average, while in the east central district a consid- erable deterioration was indicated Iotai production of the state indicated by the above condition is 1,so4.ooo bushels.
 The condition of hay was reported by crop correspondents at Ss per cent oi normal, but it was apparent that peanut hay was not included in their calculation and on account of the very bad stands of this crop the prospect of hay produc- tiou< was reduced to Sl per cent. Hay condition in the north part or the state vas considerable higher than the aver age. which was also true of the western part of the black belt.
 The condition of pastures showed an ! average of s1 per cent of normal for the state, running from s5 per cent in the east central district to 9o in the south cen- 1 tral and southwestern. | The condition of field peas and beans, 1 including cowpeas and velvet beans. av- eraged about 80 per cent.

The Hogs Teeth

The hog has IA double or molar teett with which he grinds his food, six inI cisors or front teeth and two canineE or tusks in each jaw. The incisors of thI lower jaw project nearly straight ouI and are used as nippers to bite off grasl and roots, shell off corn, and gatheI in the food. while in the upper jaw thet are shorter and more like those in tht horse, except the two corner ones. which resemble those of the dog. The tusks ard used as weapons, of defense. The Did is born with eight teeth which are shor. and sharp. Of these the two foremost ores in each jaw are called incisors, and the others are tuSkS; they all look lik4 tusks. On account of their outward diI rection and termination, they do not hurt the teats of the SOW except when the pig4 fight each other for a teat. In such al event the SOW is likely to receive a cut from these little needle-shaped tusksh Their principal use seems to be to steady. the tongue and assist in holding the tea4. lr the mouth while nursing and as a means of protection of the individua rights to the teat selected. In the course of eight to fl days after birth, there ap-, pears the first back or double teeth At four weeks of age the four nippers appear in each jaw so that at this age the pig.
 
 grinders or double teeth and four tusks The nippers having got through the gums, : remain stationary for some time and but slightly above the surface. This prevents their hurting the teats of the SOW and allows the tongue to readily pass over them and around the teat. Soon after the nippers appear, the third grinder on each side of upper and lower jaw ap- pears, and at from six to eight weeks these new molars or grinders and the nip- pers have so far developed as to enable the pig to suhsist without nursing. Some times the tusks, instead of growing out wardly as they should. turn inwardly, which will cause the pig to occasionally cry out as if in pain and prevent it's thriv- ing; when so found they should be pulled out. At the age of three months two with these all the milk or pig teeth are complete. With advancing age the teeth develop so that at six months of agn pers present an evenly rounded front. between the tusSs and grinders appear they are sometimes called wolf teeth; and also the first permanent grinders appear. The pig teeth are shed in the order in which they came. The nippers shed with the beginning of the twelfth month, and at the end of the first year, at IS months the intermediate incisors, and at the end of the eighteenth month the per- manent incisors and grinders or back teeth are complete. The full grown hog has A permanent teeth, of which B are preceded by pig teeth.

Silage for Young Stock
By A. L. HACKER

Several years ago a breeder called my
 attention to the value of corn silage for
 the rearing and developing of young stock. Having two farms, one equipped
 with silos and the other not. he had an opportunity to see the advantage of silase for this purpose. I was greatly surprised
 to note the difference in size and quality
 of the young stocy that were literally fed corn siage with alfalfa hay. They
 were not only larger, but were in bet
 ter condition This convinced me that the silo should be used more for this pur-
 pose. and have since that time often found examples to prove the value of silaSe for young growing animals. The breeder of pure bred stock, whether dairy or beef cattle, has much ned for slage in the economic development of his herd. The cost/of the product, whether beef or milk. is the principal item of expense for the breeder to consider and in this age Of high priced hay and grain, the cost of the ration becomes the most impor- tant item and the one on which depends the protfi for the breeder.
 Any man who keeps 10 head or more of cattle will find silo an economic equip 'rnent on his farm. It is necessary for nine-tenths of our milk and cream pro- ducers to grow and develop their young stock and the silage which furnishes the succuent ration to the milch cows will also form the best kind of ration for the young stock
 Liberal feeding is the only profitable kind for there is no money in half feeding stock. An animal must be boarded and if only boarding ration be given there is
 no profit. but really loss It is that
 part of the ration which is over and above
 the food of maintenance, or board. from
 which we derive our profit. On this basis
 an animal will earn money in proportion
 to the amount of food she consumes, and
 this is largely true. Good feeding is SUD-
 plying animals with their required nutri-
 ment al the lowest possible cost Any
 one with plenty of money can feed an an- imal well but to feed an animal well and economically requires a knowledge of the subject. The two great food elements which are necessary are known as car bohyTrates and protein. Corn silage is
 our cheapest form of carbonhydrate, and clovers or the legumes furnish our pro- tein in the cheapest forms. Young stock, from the time they are weaned, will make 3 splendid growth and development on corn silage and clover alfalfa hay without any grain, and this ration is a cheap one and within the reach of prac- | tically every breeder.
 | The slo will prove of great economy l not only ins the growing and developing ' of young. stock but also the growing of | colts or maintenance of idle horses. Sil- I age has been likened to pacture and it \ is very properly considered from this viewpoint when used for the growing and developing of all our live stock.

Bankers Help Boys

Club work in Columbia county, Florida has started off this spring in a way that gives every promise of the most success full year experienced in that community. Ninety boys have enrolled in the corn. peanut and pig clubs, and have agreed to grow the crops which are used in feed ing their club pigs. Forty-four of the bcys have already ordered pure bred Po- land China gilts through the American Poland China Record association. Gilts or [ months old will be used.
 t. R. R. Lake of Watertown is financing the boys. and has accepted their notes for IS months, with no interest the first F months. None of the boys expect to pay interest, for they plan to earn enough money to pay. all the notes before 12 months by selling pigs from the first lit ter Eight progressive farmers in the coun- ty have ordered pure-bred Poland China boars and will allow the boys ko breed their sows when old enough.

Will Make Potato Staple

That sweet potatoes will soon become as staple a crop as Irish potatoes is indi- cated by the fact that a number of mod ern storage houses are being built in parts of the southern states where sweet potatoes are grown extensively. When placed in storage houses of the proper type sweet potatoes can beskept as easily and with no greater loss than Irish po- ia toes in storage.
 The county. agent in Suwannee county Florida, reports that two sweet potato storage houses, one of 15.000 bushels ca pacity and the other of 10000 bushels, will be built by business firms in that com munity. One of these firms has already contracted for storage of 10000 bushels of potatoes to be delivered this fall Each of the firms will allow the farmers to store potatoes in the houses if prices on the market are not satisfactory at dig gng time. One outcome of the plan to build the storage houses in Suwannee county is the organization of two sweet potato clubs among boys and girls.

Club Boy a Champion

A Minnesota boy entered the local pig club last year, and at the end of the season found he was the state cham pion pig club member and had won a free trip to the State Fair.
 "At the beginning of the contest, the boy reported to the club leader, my pig weighed 60 pounds and was 59 days old. After I had taken her home she would rot eat until the second day. Then she began to pick up and look more cheerful at meal time At the end of the second week I turned her out to roam at Will and built a shed for her in vacant hog lot, where she went every night after sup per. She began to get more Knowing every day, and would come to the house at mealtime and squeal until she was fed, which wasn't long.
 q fed her five or six times day, using shorts, skim milk oats, barley and oc- casionally culled potatoes. curried her whenever she got muddy or about every other day, and made it point to oil her with cream separator oil in order to keep her skin and hair from becoming harsh"

Busy Bees and Busy Boys

Samuel Winegart is one of many boys in Kansas who ''got bees in their bon nets" last year. Honey commands good price, the expenses are small, and the work light. The number of boys and girls who take up beekeeping under the direc- ton of the Department of Agriculture and the state colleges is increasing.
 My grandpa kept bees and always had plenty of honey" reports Samuel When we went to visit him he would give us some 10 bring home, and then mother would have buckwheat cakes and honey. My, they were good! Papa never could handle bees, as the stings would make him sick; so he didn't keep them.
 "One spring day the leader of the boys and girls clubs in our county stopped at our place to get my brothers and me to join a club. One joined the pig club and the other the SOW and litter club. I wanted something different. so the leader suggested bees. My mother, for SIP 95, bought me two hives and what other supplies I had to have and I was en- rolled in the bee club.
 ''I had quite a time finding my bees l finally got one swarm and went after it early one cold morning. We wrapped it all up in a blanket and got it home without a sting. The other one I bought later, when it was warm weather. went after it late in the evening. wrapped them up in a blanket and so them home, but they were cross and ssgot couple of stings before they were located where I wished. As I did mol want them to swarm, as soon as theN would fill super I would remove it ant put on empty super to keep then busy. A busy boy and busy bee arr aIike-they do not have time to pla. around and swarm.
 We had white clover in the pastur and sweet clover and alfalfa for them t' work on later. I saw them working oI the corn tassels, fall asters and smart weed when they were in the timber.
 My bees did well. One hive made Il pounds of honey and the other made 611 pounds. Besides, I left two supers ful in the hive for the bees to live on durin ing the winter If they do not use it all I will take it out soon."

shade After decay starts they turn black. Young warts, when exposed to the light, turn green.
 The warty tumors vary from the size of a pea to a walnut; or they may even exceed the size of the potato on which they grow. In the latter case, the warty mass loses all resemblance to a potato. In some hills some of the potatoes may appear perfectly healthy, but the eyes are likely to be infected.
 It is through the use of such appar- entity sound potatoes for seed that the dis ease is often spread to new localities. HOW DISEASE MAY BE SPREAD
 Under ordinary conditions the potato wart disease spreads slowly. It lives in the soil and on the tubers, so one or the other must usually be transported to introduce the disease into a new field or locality. The spores may be carried into clean soil by drainage from infected soil, or the feet of men or animals, by planting diseased potatoes, by planting sound tubers that have grown on infect ed soil, by the use of manure from ami nals to which diseased potatoes have beer fed, and by garbage into which peelings from diseased potatoes have been thrown.
 PREVENTIVE CEASURES No method of controlling the potato wart disease has yet been discovered, so every preventive measure must be used to keep it from spreading. The warts should be burned. Diseased tubers must not be fed to live stock without first being boiled. Infested soil should be planted
 to other crops Potatoes should not be planted again in infested soil for at least ] eight years.
 I Federal and state agricultural authori- 1 ties are working to prevent the spread | of potato wart, but they will need heart | fest cooperation from every grower and 1 dealer of potatoes to save the industry l from this new menace. Experiments are
 being conducted to learn, if possible, ways | of controlling the malady, and nforma- | tiou will be furnished as rapidly as dis- covered. But potato wart disease is much easier to prevent than to control. l Keep watch at digging time for pota-
 toes with warty growths which are whit l ish or light brown when young, placK 1 and decayed when old. Report promptly 1 all suspicious cases to your county asent' 1 to your state agricultural experiment sta tiion, or to the United States Depart l r,ent of Apriculture

Oats as Hog Feed

Owing to their relatively higher price and their greater bulk than corn, oats have more limited use as hog feed' They are worth about one-half as much as corn per bushel. When fed In large quantities to young pigs, less rapid gains can be expected with oats than with corn When fed as part CT the ration however. cats will add the necessary bulk, and because. of the variety afforded, will cause greater total food consump- tion Oats can be used satisfactorily in place of middlings in addition to ra- tion of corn. milk or tankage and pas ture.
 Oats are somewhat higher in protein and ash than corn, but not high enough to make it possible to leave out of the ra- ton the protein supplement- The effi- ciency of oats is increased materially by grinding. and they should be ground when possible. If the pigs are being hand-red, cats are more readily eaten when ground and mixed in the slop than when scasz tered whole on the ground.
