WAYS TO CONTROL HOG LICE
Complete Eradication 10 Best Secured
by Use Of Dipping vats-Some
Other Methods.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment OF Agriculture)
Lice on hogs can be controlled In va
rlous ways, but complete eradication Is
best secured by the use of dipping
vats, experiments conducted by the
United States department Of agricul-
turc show.
Medicated hog wallows and rubbing
posts. the experiments showed, kept
the number Of parasites reduced so
that they caused little or no damage,
hut neither OF these methods destroyed
all the lice. Crude petroleum was
used on the rubbing posts and the wal
lows were medicated with conl.tar creo-
sote dips, pine tar, crude petroleum,
and bland oils. Crude petroleum and
conl-tar creosote dips proved to be
more effective when applied from an
ordinary sprinkling can than when
used In wallows or on rubbing posts.

Of large sltles-a congestion that has
increased during the past several
years. and that, II 1t continues, will
tend to run up the cost OF living.
Those are few of the main reasons
why, from the standpoint of self-inter-
est, the city automobile owner should
vote for road-bond issues.
Good Roads as Military Measure.
From the standpoint of duty, the
military element probably takes first
place. When II became necessary two
years ago to concentrate great num-
bers of men In cantonments, Il was
found that the roadways connecting
the environments with the surrounding
cities were In no sense adequate. For
the most part new roads had to be
constructed. There Is always the pos
sibility of another such emergency,
and the only means of insuring facile
communication Is by the construction
Of surfaced roads over which mote
trucks can operate.
While the security Of the nation In
such an emergency might depend upon
good roads for military uses, their serv
Ice to the nation would not be con-
fined to military matters. For a great
portion OF the time during the past two
years 90 per cent of the railroad ca
paclty of the country was required for
military purposes. The transportation
of food, fuel and the like had to be
accomplished largely by means other
than rail. Some hardships were en-
tailed. The motortruck, however, over
such roads as We're passable. rendered
excellent service. When the present
road-building program Is carried out
and the total OF improved roads Is
several times larger than ut present.
the service possibilities of the motor
truck will be correspondingly In
creased and the safety of the nation
and the comfort of the people more
fully insured.

ASSOCIATION FOR PURE SEED
Farmers Of Kansas County Organize
for Purpose OF Producing More
Desirable Seed.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
Through the efforts Of their county
agent the farmers Of Ford county,
KAN. are organizing pure seed grow
ers' association. For some time the
farmers in the vicinity Of Dodge City
have felt the need of home sources Of
dependable seed.
At the suggestion Of the county
agent. John v. Helper. they recently
met and decided It would be Of advan-
tage to unite. An association being
formed will be one of the few Of the
kind In the southwest country. The
members plan to plant pure seed; to
keep the stock pure; and to advertise
their products. and hope thereby to
command a better market.
The growers, through their associa-
tion, will be able TO produce desirable
seed Of standard varieties most accept
ed and to attract buyers.
Ford county lies In the heart of the
Kansas sorghum district and Is In po-
sition to command recognition for the
product Of the farmers cooperative
efforts.

Because their room is more desirable
than their company, the cockerels In
the flock during the late spring and
early summer are about as popular as
the appearance of Jack Frost during
peach-buddlng season. That Is why 1t
pays the average poultryman to start
n cleanup campaign in his yards which
will result In selling all the surplus
cockereis as soon as they reach mar
ketable size. This disposition Of the
male birds viii provide more commodi-
Gus quarters for the pullets which are
TO be raised to maturity. Furthermore,
as general proposition, the earlier
the cockerels are marketed, after they
reach suitable size, the higher are
the prices they will bring, other condi-
tions being equal, while on the other
kand, the longer the cockerels are kept
IN the flock the smaller will be the
net profit they will yield when finally
sold.
1t Is desirable that each poultryman
retain the choicest, most vigorous and
best-grown cOckerels in his flock for
subsequent breeding operations. while
It may also pay him to hold back and
grow to a larger size such birds as he
desires to use for the family table. The
common practice to be recommended
Is to sell the cockerels as soon as they
attain marketable size. In sections
where special and fancy markets are
available, cOckerels Of the lighter
breeds, such as the Leghorn. may be
sold as SQUAD broilers when weighing
from three-quarters Of a pound to cne
pound apiece. On the more general
markets where frying chickens are de-
sired and with the larger breeds espe-
cIally, the cockerels may be fattened
to weigh from one and one-half to two
and one-half pounds apiece before be-
Ing sold.

The cockerels which are retained for
breeding purposes should be kept apart
from the rest of the flock. in the case
of the male birds designed for market

the birds into the best condition, and
even means the difference between
marketing them with the fancy trade.

tened for market:
The first ration consists Of n mixture
Of six parts by weight Of corn meal
and four parts Of lOw-grade wheat

Is one part by weight of shorts or mid

three parts of corn meal; while the
third feeding mixture is composed or
equal parts by weight Of corn meal,
wheat -four or mlddlings, and oat flour.
With each or all Of these grain mix
lures either whole milk or skim milk
should be fed, in amount sufficient to
bring the mixture to the consistency
Of porridge, so that 1T will drop from
the end Of n spoon. If no milk Is avail
able, the farmer should add 10 per
cent of chopped vegetables and 8 per
cent Of meat meal to the above rations.
II water is used for mixing the feed.
enough should be used to make crum-
bly,, moist mixture. Water may also
be given to the fowls for drinking pur-
poses where this feeding combination
Is used, but in the case where milk Is
used In the ration 1t Is not advisable
to supply any additional water.
Feed Light RatIons at First.
When the birds are first confined for
fattening purposes they should be fed
lightly for two to three days. after
which they may be furnished all that
they will clean up in 80 minutes, two
or three times day. Their heaviest
meal for the day should always be the
last one. Comprehensive experiments
by the United States department OF
agriculture show that 1t takes 3A
pounds Of grain to produce one pound
Of gain on fattening poultry. Usually
1t costs considerably more to fatten
mature hens than 1t does to flesh up
cockerels and younger stock. Accord
ing to the experience of the depart
ment specialists, the general purpose
birds are the most desirable for fatten-
ing purposes.
AS rule the fattening period usu-
ally lasts from seven to seventeen
days, during which time the fowls are
confined in coops. The younger or
smaller birds give good results where
they are fed for the longer period.
What has been said In the foregoing
paragraphs applies with equal force to
the fattening of all poultry.
The accompanying illustration shows
a practical homemade fattenlng bat
terry In which the moist ratlons may
be fed In troughs. so that the birds can
eat cafeteria fashion.

PRICE OF PRODUCTS
AND FARM LAB0RERS
Bureau of Crop Estimates Makes
Interesting Comparison.
Wage Rates Have Not Kept Pace With

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
A composite crop and live stock
price has been provided by the bureau
Of crop estimates, United States de-
partment Of agriculture, and the nd
vance Of this price since 1914. or the
beginning Of the war. may be COM
pared with the advance In the wage
rates paid for farm labor. From 1914
to 1915 wage rates gained per cent
and the price Of crops fell 3 per cent,
but since 1915 wage rates have not
gained on 1914 as much as the price
of crops and live stock has The ad-
vance in wages tn 1915 was 10 per
cent above 1914, while the price Of
crops and live stock advanced IL per
cent. In the next year, 1917, wages
rose q per cent above 1914. while the
price Of crops an6 live stock rose "A
per cent. but In 1918 the disparity be-
tween the two In the advance was
slightly reduced and the gain Of wages
over 1914 was 65 per cent and Of price
Of crops and live stock 90 per cent.
1t Is well known that wage rates ara

fact. and It Is according to rule that
the wage rates Of farm labor have not
kept pace with the advance Of prices
Of farm products during the war. even
though much labor was drawn from
the farm by higher wage rates else
