Farmers who devote the little extra
time necessary in skinning animals
carefully-possibly only three to five
minutes In taking off the skin of calf,
or 10 minutes In the case Of beef hide
can increase the value of the hide
several times, say specialists Of the
United States department of agricul-
ture. This is of utmost Importance in
view of the present urgent demand for
leather, and the increase in price which
unsecured hides bring on the market.
1t is essential and even necessary to
exercise the utmost care in removing
skins from farm animals.
Country hides and skins make up
more than one-third of all the hides
and skins produced In the country, but
too often the value of. country hides
for leather making Is less than that
of packer hides. The tanner pays more
for packer hides than for those OBJ
tanned from farmers or country slaugh-
terers. This Is due in part to better
facilities in the large packing houses
for curing and storing the hides, but
principally to the fact that such hides
have been taken off properly. The tan
ner knows that country hides are fire.
quently removed by unskilled work
men and are often cut and scored.
When such hides come from tanner,
scores show very plainly and In many
cases one-half Of the thickness Of the
leather is lost by such defects. I'm
PROJECTIONS can be avoided and the
farmer can make more money by care
full use of the SHINING knife, by keep
ing the hides clean and free from blood
and by proper storage and packing.
How to Skin Animals.
When animals are skinned on the
farm, the operation, should be per-
formed on a clean, hard spot under a
tree, IL possible, or, IL done indoors,
in room with concrete floor. The
limb of a tree may be used for sus-
pending the carcass, but when the
hides are removed indoors block and
tackle must be provided.
The animals should be cleaned Off.
curried and brushed thoroughly, in or
der to remove all dirt. The skinning
knife should be sharp, though 1t should
not be used any more than is absolute
iy necessary. The use of the knife
may be avoided In taking off calf skins,
except on the head, neck, legs and
tanks, as the body skin may be drawn
or listed off. Where 1t is necessary to
use the knife, the skin should be drawn
taut with one hand, while the knife Is
used with the other, special care be-
ing taken to hold the back Of the blade
close 10 the skin. II this Is done there
Z Is less danger of cutting or scoring the
skins. In leu Of the knife, some butch
ers use sharpened wooden stick
shaped like mans thumb, and employ
a knife only on the portions of the
body mentioned.

GOOD TREATMENT FOR COLDS
Small Amount Of Potassium Perman-
ganate In Drinking Water
ls Quite Satisfactory.

If any birds in the flock develop
colds, put as much potassium perman-
ganate as will remain on the surface
Of dime into gallon Of water and
keep this mixture in their drinking wa
ter for several days, or until the synp-
toms Of the colds have disappeared.
Remove any sick birds from the flock
as soon as they are noted and treat
them in coops by themselves, or kill
and bury them If they are not worth
treating.

The beauty contest season for poul-
try Is again at hand and fanciers who
previously have fretted over egg rec
ord and feeding rations are now con-
cerned with grooming their birds in
their best bib and tucker and prepar-
ing them for inspection by judges at
fairs and poultry shows.
Something besides external beauty
and fine feathers Is required to win in
the show ring. Every fowl, whether
young or mature, should be in first
class show condition when It enters the
exhibition hall. The plumage should
be the standard length for the breed,
lustrous and plentiful, the head bright
red in color, and the comb developed
to the required size. The specimen
should appear in handsome dress, good
physical condition, and trained to ex-
hlbit his good qualities to advantage.
Careful training imparts to a bird suffi-
cient confidence to assume and hold
desired poses under showroom condi-
lions.
II possible, obtain exhibition coops
similar to those used at the show you
will attend. Cover the floor with short,
clean straw, or q mixture Of bran and
straw for feathered-leg breeds. Two
months before the show place In the
coops at night the birds you intend to
exhibit. Visit the coOps as frequently
as you can and handle the birds often.
Carry them around under the arm, OPP
en- their wings and examine the under
color, and accustom them to every
movement Of the judge. 1t is not adj
visable or necessary to keep the show
birds confined In the training coops. A
day at time Is sufficient; then allow
them the run Of the house for two or
three days, and outdoor exercise IL
seasonable.
Diet Makes Hens Handsome.
Show birds should receive variety
Of foods. If you wish to increase
weight rapidly, make mash Of equal
parts Of corn meal, ground oats, wheat
middlings and thick sour milk or but
termilk. Sweeten 1t with brown sugar,
and add 10 per cent linseed meal. The
mash should be of the same consist
ency as thick oatmeal porrldge. This
Is similar to milk-feeding rations, but
1t should be fed only each morning.
Feed whole or cracked corn, wheat, ka-
fir corn, barley, or buckwheat, or a
commercial scratching food, in the mid
die Of the day and again in the late af-
ternoon. Feed yellow corn to buff va
rleties, and white corn to white, black
and parti-colored. Yellow corn may
cream the plumage Of white birds. A
little cooked or raw meat or ground
bone will be beneficial, except to spec
linens inclined to grow large combs.
It is necessary to examine your show
birds carefully Mt least 10 weeks before
the show. Remove all imperfect feath-
ers In The hope that they will be replac-
ed by feathers of standard color. Ere
quently colored feather showing lit
tie white along the edge Of the web will
mott out perfectly when the fowl isywell
fed on the sour-milk mash, meat, and
grain. Never pluck new feather

prepared by the United States Depart

Although grasshoppers are not usu-
ally noticed by the farmer until they
have reached a considerable size, they
begin to injure his crops Immediately
upon Matching from the egg. They
should be detected and combated,
therefore, while young and small. so
that time, labor and material, as well
as crops, may be saved.

STRAW AS WINTER RoUeHAeE
Also Advisable to Use II Literally for
Bedding as II Absorbs
Liquid Manure.

Straw is too valuable to be allowed
to remain unused. Fresh oat straw, as
well as wheat straw, can be used as a
roughage in wintering stock. IT Is also
advisable to use It literally as bedding
for farm animals as 1t adds to their
comfort and absorbs tho liquid part Of
the manure. which Is the most valu-
able portion.

GREAT ROAD BUILDING YEAR
Thousands Of Miles Of Improvement
Arranged and More Will
Surely Follow.

From the passage of the federal
aid road act to December Is. 1918.
755 projects were approved by the
secretary of agriculture. These
projects involve the Improvement of
1867 miles of public roads at a total
estimated cost of $57, $4,000, of which
the federal government has been re-
quested to contribute $21, 6O2, 600.
There have been actually completed
to date twelve projects, involving a
total Of ffty-one miles of road, cost
ing approximately $617.548, and on
which federal aid in the amount of.
$260.660.19 was paid.
Altogether there are more than
$500 miles of road, for which most
of the steps preliminary to construc.
ton have been taken SO far as the
bureau of public roads is concerned.
Numerous other projects not yet re-
ported to the department have been
completed or are under construction,
so that the sum total of the road
work now in progress under leral
aid is greater than appears in this
summary.
From Florida to Maine, through the
North to the Pacific coast and down
to Mexico road building work is go
ing on. Every state has accepted it's
contribution from the government,
and while no organized effort has
been made along those lines to the
present time, the states are working
gradually to the system of national
highways.
Coupled with plans already out.
lined for expenditures on the roads
is the legislative program now before
congress-, which provides for $780,
100000 to be expended over a period
of seven years by federal aid. 1t is
estimated that in the event of the
passage of this bill, which would
