CHICKENS LIKE FISH HEADS
Satisfactory Protein-Containino Food
for Poultry Flock Is Simple and
inexpensive.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
A simple and inexpensive substitute
for meat scraps, which often are hard
to obtain at the average butcher shop,
is to utilize fish heads in the poultry
ration. Arrangements usually can be
made with local fish dealers to save
these heads, particularly if the poul-
tryman will furnish buckets in which
the refuse may be kept until he calls
for them. AS they come from the
dealers shop, the fish heads are tough
and covered with heavy scales and
aristle. However, underneath is fine
tender meat which the hens relish
keenly. The poultryman can soften
the coarse outer shell by boiling the
fish head In water for five to ten min
utes and then pouring off the water
and throwing the fish heads in among
the chickens. In many instances the
dealers are glad to get rid Of the fish
heads and on the basis of actual food
value the poultry keeper can afford to
pay 4 or s cents for quart of fish
heads which provide a satisfactory
pfotein-containing food for his flock.

the farm without using special tools.
A stacker will last from 10 to ~
years under ordinary conditions, and
the cost of repair is small. On q
farms in central Kansas, which stack
an average of IA tons of hay year,
all charges against the stackers
amounted to less than 7 cents ton
when the yield was one ton an acre.
Small Stacks Not Economical.
In building a haystack with stack
err 1t is scarcely economical to make
one containing less than 10 tons, ac-
cording to experience. In locating
stacks long or difficult hauls should be
avoided whenever possible. 1t is very
common on many farms to see stacks
of hay at the end or corner of the field
next to the farm buildings. the site be-
ing chosen in order to have the hay
handy for feeding. The total distance
travelled in bringing hay to one side of
a square field Is approximately so ra-
cent greater than in hauling to the CEN
ter. If the stack Is located at one cor
ner of the field the distance Travelled is
100 per cent greater.
To minimize damage by moisture
from the ground, care should be taken
to keep the hay in the bottom of the
stack from coming into contact with the
soil. The aim of all good stack build
ers is to make stack that will moi
take water" This can be accomplish
ed by tramping the middle well and al
ways keeping il higher than the edges
during the process of building To give
the stack further protection, man,
farmers provide canvas cover o.
sheets of corrugated galvanized iroI
roofing which, when properly put on
practically eliminates loss from rain.

Different STORAGE
HOUSES NOW IN USE
Insulated Structure Best Adapted

Product Of Maine.

prepared BY tho United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
The insulated potato house is not
used extensively, and as a rule is bet
ter adapted to southern than to north
ern climates. The construction fen-
ture of such house is the thorough
insulation of its walls, ceilings, doors,
and windows. In northern locations
such a house must be heated by a
stove.
The Aroostook type of storage house,
with concrete or masonry basement
walls and wooden superstructure, is
distinctively a product of Maine and
confined largely to that state. 1t Is
expensive and is always located on
q side hill or knoll in order that adj
vantage may be taken of ground level
entrance. The Easements are usually
from to IL feet deep, and most of
them have a capacity of several thou
sand barrels. Generally the only pro-
vision for ventilation is by trapdoors
In the floor through which the filing
of the bins is completed. Occasional
ly a ventilator is found in the roof
These houses, although practical in
Maine, will never supersede the dugout
pit or storage cellar now used In the
middle and far western states. Each
Of these types of storages has distinc-
tive features which peculiarly adapt 1t
to its own environment, but do not
necessarily preclude use in other To-
calities.
The artifcin.ly refrigerated potato
storage house Is confined practically
to the storage of northern-grown seed
potatoes held in cold storage for Sec
ond-crop planting in the South. There
is little demand for such house In
northern sections, but it is thought
that community cold-storage plants OF
this type could be profitably used by
the southern truck growers, as they
could purchase their supplies OF seed
In the fall and have them delivered be-
fore the arrival of cold weather. The
seed potatoes could be stored through
out the winter in the house and be
available in excellent condition when
desired the following season.

Thousands of farmers who faced the
harvesting of a large hay crop last year
with fewer hands than usual to help do
the work owe their success in handling
and saving their crop to hay stackers.
The hay stacker Is to stacking what the
horse fork is to putting hay in the barn,
a saver of man and labor. 1t lifts the
hay on the stack by horse power in
stead Of man power. When hay is load
ed on the wagon by hand and unloaded
by stacker one-half of the hand labor
is eliminated. If push rakes or hay
leaders are used In connection with the
stacker the laborious task Of pitching
by hand is entirely avoided.
Useful In East and South.
In the East and South, where much
Of the hay grown is stored under cover,
a stacker could be used to advantage
when it becomes necessary to stack,
especially where labor is scarce. A boy
who can drive a team can take the
place of a man In the haying opera
ton. Two men and a boy using load
err and stacker will handle about IS per
cent more hay for each man during a
day than three-man crew loading and
unloading by hand.
Hay stackers are classed in two gen.
eral types, one having teeth on which
the hay is gathered and brought to the
stack on push racks; the other con-
sisting of stackers that do not receive
hay directly from push racks, but han
die it by means of horse forks or
sings. Both types are comparatively
inexpensive and can usually be made
at home with material that is available
or which can be readily assembled OF

How Arkansas Big Peach Crop was Marketed
 A. Hughes Horticutust Refrigerator Transit Co

Big Danger mountain peaches ran a close second to the Bert Johnson brand. The Cazorts followed Mir. Johnson's lead and sprayed, pduned, cultivated and fertilized their or chard. They erected a packing shed, installed four grading machines and ring packed the perfect fruit. They realized as high as $1,275 a car for some of their fruit. This fruit brouht an average of nearly dollar more per bushel than the average price paid for peaches throughout the state.
 If the other growers in the state would only follow the example set by MT. Johnson and the Cazort broth CTS, every car load of peaches shipped from Arkansas would bring these high prices.
 Nearly all of the peaches were moved by the American Refrigerator Transit Company. For two weeks prior to the harvest the refrigerator cars were started from various points in the different states toward Ar kansas. When the season opened near ly every side track in the peach belt was full of the empty cars ready for icing and loading. It is very inter- esting to follow refrigerator car from loading point to. destination.
 At first the cars are taken to the shops and overhauled so that they are in perfect condition. Next they are disinfected, thoroughly cleaned and sent to the icing stations. In Ark ansas these are at Texarkana, Pres colt, Little Rock and Van Buren. Dur. ing the past season long trains of yellow refrigerator cars could beseen at these points each day.
