BIG RETURNS FROM POULTRY
Arizona Farmer Made Profit of Nearly
$500 From Small Flock in Short
Space of Time.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of AgTiculture.)
A net return Of nearly $500 in two
and One-half months from 4 side line
on the farm is the record made by a
Glendale, Ariz., farmer who is carry
ing on his operations under the direc-
ton of a poultry extension expert OF
the United States department of agri-
culture. In connection with his gen
erel farm work he kept a flock of 30
hens. which produced an average OF
ten dozen eggs during the four winter
months During February the eggs
brought an average of 90 cents a
dozen, or approximately $50, while
the feed bill, including the feed for
the young chicks, amounted to $50.
The following month the flock showed
a profit of a little over 500. During
the first half of April the gross re-
ceipts were $3.50. In April the ex-
tension specialist conducted a cuIling
demonstration on this farm and weed
ed 56 hens from the flock. The culIed
hens were kept in a separate pen for
a week following the demonstration.
and made practically no returns in egg
yields. This indicates, the specialist
says. that the remaining 154 hens
probably made the record with which
the entire 30 had been credited.

EFFICIENT MEANS OF
PREPARING SEED BED
Use Disk to Prevent Growth of

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agricultural
When wheat follows a cultivated
crop that is removed sufficiently early,
such as corn or tobacco, the soil can
usually be prepared for seeding by the
use Of a disk and ordinary harrows.
AS soon as the crop is harvested the
land should be gone over with the
disk to prevent the growth of grass
and weeds A second disking, followed
by narrowing, is given just before the
grain is sown. A better seed bed can
be prepared in this way than by plow-
ing, and it takes much less time and
work. If weeds are plentiful, blowing
three or four inches deep may be nee
essary. Narrowing with an ordinary
harrow should follow the blowing.
When wheat follows cotton the
stalks should be plowed under as soon
as the bolls are ali open and picked.
Flowing in this case should be deep
enough to bury the stalks completely
in order to destroy the boil weevil.
The land should then be frmed with
a roller and the wheat sOwn with a
disk drill. Disking or narrowing is not
advisable, as it .unearths the buried
stalks.
When wheat follows other than q
cultivated crop, the seed bed should
be prepared by blowing the land TO
a depth of six or seven inches several
weeks before seeding. 1t should then
be narrowed at once and afterwards
worked down with a harrow, disk,

kill all weeds that start to grow after
the topsofl is well broken up. When
it Is necessary to pillow just before
seeding, as when a catch crop of cow
peas is plowed under. the soil should
be compaeted by rolling and narrowing
several times before seeding.

These safety dates are only approx
mate and serve to show in q general
way about the time when the fall
brood of the fly will have largely dis
appeared from the wheat belt east of
the Mississippi river. As the larger
part of the fall brood appears and is
gone within week, it is possible for
q farmer to time his seeding opera
lions so as to avoid the fly.
Rotating Crops Is Effective.
Crop rotation is an efficient control
less new unaffected fields are near by,
most of the insects succumb. Rotat-
ing the crops decreases the available
supply of new host plants.
Destruction of volunteer grain
plants by blowing, disking, or other
tillage operations must begin before
the larvae have matured in order to
be effective, as volunteer wheat ordi-
narily is a prolific distributor of fly
infection. Enriching the soil by plow-
ing under the green cover crops and
by applying stable manure also aid
indirectly in combating the fly because

soon attain vigorous, healthy growth
and are better able to resist diseases
than those grown on thin soils where
it is hard to develop sufficient growth
to withstand the winter if the wheat
is Sown late.
Good seed is a prerequisite in Sc
curing healthy vigorous growth. Or
dinarily the fly is avoided where good
seed is sown in thoroughly prepared
fertile soil after the majority Of the
fall brood has disappeared. 1t is pref
cradle to sow on ground not devoted
to wheat the preceding year. In the
case of spring wheat, the earlier the
grain is sown the less it will suffer
from the Hessian fly, but good seed
and a well prepared, fertile soil are
as essential in this case as elsewhere.

The Hessian fly, a minute wheat
parasite, less than knee-high to a
grasshopper. but gigantic as a fierce
lion in its destructiveness, collects
$50O00,O00 year from American
wheat growers. This mosquito-like
fly lays its eggs upon the leaves of
wheat, and after the eggs hatch the
little maggots live upon the plants
sap which they obtain by gnawing in
to the soft portion of the stem. Ordi-
narily two, or sometimes three or
more, generations of the insect occur
during a year. The main army of
flies arrives in the fall and conducts
q carnival of despoliation among the
newly seeded grain. After the HeSsian
fly has once thoroughly infested a
crop of WHEAT there is no known
means of saving the grain, and the
only known method of preventing dam
age from the fly is to keep such invad-
ers out of the wheat,
Safe Dates for Seeding.
One of the most effective means of
escaping fly damage is to defer fall
seeding until danger OF mOleStaIlOn
from the fly is over. Safety dates for
seeding wheat in different sections of
the country are as follows:
Northern Michigan, soon after Sep
TENDER 1 in southern Michigan, and
northern Ohio, about September 20; in
southern Ohio, after the first week in
October; in Kentucky and Tennessee,
October 10 to 20; in Georgia and South
Carolina, October % to November 16
in extreme southern Kansas and north
ern Oklahoma, as well as in Virginia,
after the first week in October. Oc-
tober-sown wheat always enjoys the
greatest freedom from the fly in Mis-
souri,. Practically the same CORE
spending delay in wheat sowing in the
| fall should be followed to the south
ward.

GOOD
ROADS
KEEP EARTH ROADS IN SHAPE
Engineer of Wisconsin Highway Com
mission Tells Benefits Of Patrol
System Of Maintenance.

Earth roads will be In existence
over wide areas for many years to
come, Notwithstanding the rapid extern
sion of permanent road beds OF diff
ferent materials.
Mr.. F. Sergeant, division engineer
Of the Wisconsin highway commission,
writes:
AFTER seasons experience with
the patrol system Of maintenance in
division No. z, where we have prac-
tically all earth roads, am more than
ever convinced that this type of road
can be fairly well maintained by this
system, even where subject to consid-
cradle heavy motor traffic.
ga patrol section should not be more
than six or seven miles in length and
should be taken care of by one man
with team. This man should be held
responsible for the condition Of his
section at all times and should be re-
Quired to devote all Of his time to the
work.
''The patrolman must have a good
team, and the wagon box equipped
with a dump bottom. The county
should furnish light two-horse blade
grader, road plane, pillow, scraper and
necessary small tools, such as shovel,
pick, bar, brush scythe, rake, etc.
'In spite of all the claims made for
the road drag as maintenance tool,
we find the light blade grader or the
road plane far superior to it, and we
advocate the use of these tools entire
~ for road maintenance. We find that
a road drag having no bearing except
on the blade, has a tendency to gouge
out the material in soft spots making
them still deeper, and giving the road
| a bad, wavy surface, while the blade
grader or the road plane, having a
long wheel base or bearing surface,
cuts only on the high spots and dis
tributes the material in low places
building them up and giving the road
a nice, smooth, driving surface. A
blade grader should be so constructed
that one man can drive the team and
make all adjustments necessary while
the machine is moving, as only one
man is required on this work.
Gan earth road with low crown and
badly sodded shoulders cannot be
properly maintained by the patrolman
but should be first trimmed up with a
heavier outfit, cutting off and remov-
ing heavy sods, properly heaping ul
the crown, filling low places and open
ing up drainage.
'"The blade grader should not be
used on earth roads when they are
sloppy, but should be used as soon as
the material is dry enough to roll nice
ly on the blade, and pack into the ruts
and depressiOns. And no great amount
of material should be moved at one
time; quarter or half inch cut is suf.
f1cient for the best results, furnishing
all the material that the blade can dis
| tribute evenly. Under ordinary wealth.

BETTER SWINE AND PROFITS
Farmers Learning TO Be More Careful
in Selection of Their Breed
ing Animals.
prepared by the United States Depart
ment of AgricuIture1

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agricultural
Farmers throughout the country are
using improved hog-breeding stock
more generally than ever before, re-
port specialists of the United States
department of agriculture, as they are
learning that the best stock yields the
most profits, and hence are more care
full in their selection of breeding ami
mails. Farmers, as a rule, seem to be
pleased with the outlook for the hog
raiser, and the indications point to a
large increase in the number Of filters
to be narrowed this fall. Much trouble
was experienced with the early spring
filters because of cold weather at far
rowing time and on account of feed
shortage and the high price Of pro-
tein feeds, causing many stockmen to
allow their brood sows to get into poor
condition, with the result that small
and weak filters were narrowed. In
the main, these farmers have learned
a costly lesson, and henceforward it is
presumed that they will provide better
housing and narrowing conditions as
well as ample food of the right mix
ture for their porkers.

When q horse falls In harness he al
most Immediately struggles to regain
his feet A strong, healthy horse VIII
not remain down voluntarily, but in
his efforts to rise he may become
frightened. II the driver VIII give
the right kind Of first aid he can pre-
vent serious injury to the animal
Held down by the harness the horse
seldom has sufficient freedom to rise
to his feet, though enough TO struggle
and injure himself by pounding his
head On the ground Accordingly the
driver should calm the horse first by
speaking in q reassuring tone and, by
placing his knees upon the animals
neck just back of the ears, endeavor
to prevent injury from struggling or
from bruising his head. An intelligent
horse quickly learns to place great
confidence in the voice Of q good
driver.
The traces and breeding straps
should be unfastened and the vehicle
rolled back from the fallen animal Il
the horse is in double hitch, the traces
and yoke strap should be unfastened
and the pole, vehicle, and working
mate moved q short distance away.
An injured horse will then regain his
feet readily If he has suitable footing
In case the ground is Icy, scatter some
fine sand, sawdust, or straw under
and in front of him. If nothing of this
kind is available, spread a blanket or
burlap bagging on the pavement to
give him better footing as he attempts
to stand.
In case the horse needs more help
and encouragement, and especially if
he lies brOadside, roll him on to his
chest, with the hind legs under the
belly. Then work both front legs for
ward until the feet are firmly on the
ground and knees fexed. If after re-
peated efforts and good footing he
continues to fall back upon the ground
there is possibly some injury to the
hind parts, such as a fracture Of the
hip or leg, which should be examined
by a qualified veterinarian.
In all efforts to assist a fallen
horse do not forget that in rising to
his feet he raises the head and fore

to the habit of the cow, which ele-
Yates the hind parts first.
Injuries to horses are common dur
ing the winter months in cities where
icy coating on the pavement. In most
cities above the frost belt there are
times when pavements are slippery.
Asphalt is especially troublesome
and when covered by very light sleet
or snow makes a very treacherouS
footing for horses. The miIkman or
baker, who drove upon a clean pave
ment the night before, may find the
streets at a. m. so nearly impossible
from a coat of smooth ice as to delay
his deliveries very greatly or even
prevent them entirely.
In country districts horses remain
sharp or rough shod for considerable
time. But If they are driven much on
city streets paved with stone, cement,
or asphalt, from which the snow has
been removed, their shoes quickly be-
come smooth and it is difficult for the
horses to keep their feet.
When the front feet slip backward
horse is likely to fail and fnjure his
knees, while side slipping generally
causes him to come down broadside.
Shooting with rubber pads. or the use
of emergency appliances may lessen
the chance Of slipping, but as there Is
always the possibility OF a horse fall
ing, even when well shOd, careful driv-
ing and precautions against overload
ing are important additional means for
reducing these accidents and injuries
to q minimum.
