In Memoriam

In sad, but loving, remembrance
of my dear father, William H. Fitz-
hugh. who departed this life two
years ago, January 20, 1917.
From this world Of grief and trouble,
To the land Of peace and rest,
God has taken you, dear father,
Where you will find eternal rest.
Rest on. dear father, thy labors DER,
Thy willing hands will toll no
more;
A faithful father, both true and kind,
A truer father you could not find.
Yes, we miss you, oh, how we miss
you,
When we see your vacant chair;
But how sad the home is without you
For there is no father here.
By his loving daughter,
MRS. HENRY AARON.

Bass lured by BRIGHT lioht.

Here is fish story based on an Oc-
currence at Pontoosuc lake, in Maine.
A pair of bullhead fishermen were in
a boat anchored some distance off
Broadway and it was quite dark. An
other boat with two men in it an
chored a short distance away and the
men began fishing. The first fish to be
caught was small rock bass. "Give
me that fish," said the other. 1t was
handed to him by the one who caught
it and he threw it at one of the men
In the other boat, whom he knew. The
fish whizzed by this mans head and
landed in the boat, on the bottom Of
which was lighted lantern. Gosh ]"
said the one who had nearly been hit,
"where did that come from?" 81 don't
know" replied his companion. 1T
jumped right into the boat in trying
to get near the light" and this story

OLD Vs. YOUNG BULL.

No doubt there are bulls with dairy merit being sold in Connecticut each day because the owners prefer to use l younger bull. Some. claim that an old bull is too heavy and is not a reg ular breeder. Others who have only a few cows have to change to another bull which in most cases is young aulI the dairy merits of which are un- Auovn, because they do not want to nbrecd.
 Tn most cases, the bull is sold be- fore his heifers come into milk and before the owner has had an oppor- uuitv to determine whether or not ne sired heifers of better production .nan their dams, says W. A. Rhea, Dairyman for the extension service of Connecticut Agricultural College at Storrs. In some instances with a large herd, the owner can probably afford to hold a bull until his daugh- icrs come in milk, but the small dairy nan with only few cows cannot af- ford this expense. In a community where one breed predominates, a CO., ope ative bull association would be an ideal way of solving the problem. some breeders follow the plan of lo1niue their mature bulls out to some Of their neighbOrs until some of his daughters come into milk and his dairy qualities are ascertained.
 TIfe advantage of the old bull over fha young bull according to MT. Rhea a that his dairy merits are known to a certain extent; also with an old bull his conformation is known, whereas in buying a young bull, you do not know this definitely With an old bull, his disposition can usually be deter mined As to the breeding qualities, lhe old bull will be as regular 8. breed or as the young bull, provided he has been properly handled.

very slight and only anyone who has seen fields from treated and untreated seed in years where smut is bad can appreciate the protection this simple treatement gives. The treatment may
 be done in several ways but the sim
 plest, quickest and safest is the dry method, according to B. c. Helmick,
 of the agronomy department of Con-
 necticut Agricultural College at
 Storrs. This treatment is as follows:
 "The Dry Method: Mix one
 pint of formaldehyde with one pint
 of water and pour the solution in to
 quart hand sprayer. A good hand ato- mixer sprayer equipped with ordinary quart mason jar to hold the sloution, can be purchased for about fifty to seventy-flve cents. Spread the seed on a tight board or cement floor, on a canvas or in wagon box and spray the solution on the grain, as this is being shoyeled over, taking care that it is well distributed. One quart of
 the solution will treat fifty bushels of oats. When all the grain is treated shovel it into a pile and cover for five l hours with disinfected sacks, canvas
 old rugs or horse blankets. The grain may be sown immediately after the treatrsent or allowed to aerate thor oughly and put away until needed" Be sure that you buy your formalir | (40 per cent formaldehyde) in sealed containers or there is danger that the
 strength of the formalin will be weak ened. If see4 treatment is done ir l freezing weather, care must be taker
 not to let the seed freeze or it will be l killed and then fail to germinate l Also be sLre to turn the grain at least
 once a day until it is thoroughly dry ] if the treatment is done before seed 1 ing time or it will mold and thus spoi 1 il for seed.

Storrs. He had tried many treatments but had no success. Lice are rather small and insignificant to be sure; but they ap- pear in such large numbers that they make the COW very uneasy and worry her so much that she gives less milk than she ordinarily would. Moreover. the lice travel from one animal to an other very rapidly. % that tt is moi only one COW, but the whole herd, that is giving less milk.
 Lice are hard to get rid of. They Increase in numbers with remarkable rapidity and they are so small that one cannot see them easily. Perhaps .f is not possible 10 get rid of all the lice: but they have two great enemies -cleanliness and oils. The first of these deals with the COW herself rather than the barn. Keep your cows clean and well groomed. the cows should be curried and brushed daily as well as the horses This will not keep away all the lice. but it is biz step in that direction.
