SHUCK PROTECTION FOR CORN
Many Growers sFaiI to Realize They
May Reduce Damage to Grain by
Improving Covering.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Most corn growers fail to realize
that by improving the shuck covering
on their corn by selection they may
reduce the amount of damage done
to the grain. Growers generally con-
slider nothing but the ears and kernels
when selecting seed. In weevil-infest-
ed sections in particular, variation in
the damage of ears is frequently Oh
served, but if the matter is considered
the cause is usually attributed to va
ration in the hardness of the grain.
Weevils attack corn of all degrees of
hardness, and their progress in con-
suming the hard corn is only slower
than that in the soft. Some observers
have concluded that since weevilS are
able to eat the hardest corn, they
would also cut their way through the
most resistant shucks in order to feed
upon the grain, if sufficiently urged by
hunger. Others have observed that
earworms may cut holes through a
large percentage of the protecting
shucks and that weevils will enter
through these holes, and they have
concluded from this that shuck cover
ing cannot be made a practicable
means of protection. Then, too, there
is sentiment on the part Of some
against a large amount of shuck.

GOOD HIGHWAYS HELP TRADE
ing Pleasure to Motorists-Bene-
fit Everybody.

To some people good roads mean
simply an advantage for the motorist,
convenience that was created and is
enabling him to get from place to
place without racking his car to pieces
or experiencing the necessity of being
towed out of hubdeep mud.
Yet there is another side to this sub
ject of the value of good roads, writes
l.. J. Ollier in Chicago Tribune. Good
roads mean more than an opportunity
to get out on tours from the health
giving and pleasure standpoints.
Good roads are closely allied with
progress and prosperity. They pro-
mote the more widespread use of au-
tomobiles, and statistics prove automo-
biles and prosperity always go to-
gether.
1t is fair to say that good roads ben
eft everybody: the city dwellers, those
who live in towns, and those who live
on farms. OF course, the fast-grOwing
use of motOrcars-the fact that auto
mobiles are now considered practical
ly necessity for eyerybody-has been
the biggest single influence in awak-
ening this country to the fact that
money expended in good roads exten-
sions and improvements is money well
spent.
We can all remember how only a
few years ago city people paid little
attention to good roads, and how farm
ers were even opposed to the expendi
ture of funds for the betterment Of
highways. That, of course, was before
automobiles came into such wide
spread usage, in the days when motor
cars were considered an extravaganza
and We're owned only by the rich.
Good roads and the automobile have
taken people out into the country.
They have banished forever the isola-
tion of farm life. They have increased
health and prolonged life. They have
enabled people to dig in and put better

come of local superstitiOns and lack
of knowledge concerning the digestive
process of the cow. Instead of such
treatment an effort should be made
to determine the exact nature of the
illness affecting the cow with a view
to applying proper treatment.
1t may be confidently expected with
an approaching return of the animal
to state of normal health there will
be restoration of the process of di-
gestion, including the function of
ruminatiOn or cud-chewing.

TO INCREASE FARM PROFITS
Iowa County Agent Tells Why Some
Farms Are Made More Profit
able Than Others.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
In a recent report to the department,
W. A. Dickinson, county agent, Floyd
county, Iowa, attempts to show why
some farms are more profitable than
others. Owing to the fact that farm
labor has been exceedingly scarce in
some districts during the present sea-
son, many operators have attempted to
increase the efficiency of their man
labor as much as possible. They have
done this by using larger machin-
cry and more horse power. They have
also tried to secure a more even dis
tribution of labor throughout the year
by growing a variety of crops and
keeping live stock. In some cases a
portion of the crop has been harvested
by the live stock. They have also kept
close tab on the work that required
immediate attention, and they have
avoided work which could be post
poned while more productive work re-
ceived immediate attention.

efforts into their work as result of
the relaxation and hroadening-out eX-
periences of the weekend trip into the
country.
The prospect of being able to buy
an automobile and receive the benefits
of good roads has spurred the ambi-
ton and quickened the imagination of
the man who walks or uses street cars.
He wants to be Independent.
He wants to get away from the linn
tied vision that of necessity must be
his just as long as he is bound to a
life of pounding pavements and cling
ing to street-car straps. He works
harder and achieves more, with the
prospect of spinning over good roads
in his own automobile. For travel
Ing only around town he may feel that
he cannot afford an automobile; that
he cannot get his moneys worth.
There is where good roads come in.
enabling just such a man to get out
into the country and broaden out.
Good roads have been a stimulator
of business. BY means of good roads
an outlet to the congestion CT cities
has been afforded. New towns have
sprung up.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture)
Although the relation of the act of
chewing the cud to the natural process
Of digestion in cattle is probably quite
generally understood, the United
States department Of agriculture fire.
quietly receives inquiries concerning
the proper treatment for cattle which
have ''lost their cud," the impression
apparently being that the cud is some
thing which can mechanically disap-
pear, and when so lost must be re-
placed in order to restore the animal
to health.
Is Natural Process.
Illumination or chewing the cud Is
natural process in connection with the
digestion of cattle and other ruminant
animals. In ruminants the food when
first taken into the stomach is i'm
perfectly chewed, and is returned to
the mouth for remastication. This re-
turned ball of food is termed "the
cud."
So called loss of cud, the department
explains, is simply suspension Of
chewing, frequently one of the first
indications of sickness in any kind of
ruminant animals, since ruminants
generally stop chewing the cud when
feeling out of condition. Any condi-
tion affecting the general health of
cattle may result in suspension Of
chewing, and there is almost certain to
be an interruption of this process
when there is any pronounced dis
turbance of digestion.
