iel Protheroe. During his eight
years experience in the direction of
evangelistic music he has conducted
large choruses containing hundreds
of voices. He has conducted large
choruses in the Twin Cities during
the last two years. The members Of
the Norris Community Gospel Chorus
will learn much of profit to them as
vocalists under Mr.. Moons direction,
and all without cost.
The organization and first big pre-
paratory rehearsal of the chorus will
be held in the tabernacle Friday
night, October 31st, at 7:30 sharp.
Every singer interested is urgently
asked to be on hand, and promptly.
Mr.. Moon will conduct this rehearsal.
Schools, churches and others are CO.
operating in keeping this night free
from all meetings of any nature
which would take a singer from this
rehearsal. Singers please plan &C

Get the Flock in Winter Quarters

AS fall and winter eggs will be Sc
cured from the pullet flock, these
fowls should be put into winter quar-
tiers in the poultry house as early as
possible so that they will get the
habit of laying in the nests. Leg
horns will begin egg production at
51a months and Rocks and Reds at
619 months. 1t is not profitable to
allow them to run about at will each
day, to be caught each night and
taken to the poultry house. keep
them in is the advice of N. E. Chap
man, poultry specialist, "but keep
them busy scratching by supplying
grain and litter and an abundance of
green feed, so they may not lack no
part of the ration to which they
are accustomed.
"The old hens or breeders should
have separate room and be allowed
the freedom of the farm. They must
be fed a different ration and have
different management from the pullet
flock. A good laying ration for pullets
is two parts cracked corn and one
each of wheat and oats as scratch

made piles by stock tramping over
it and pulling it down.
When straw is scarce and needed
for litter or feed it should be as care
fully stacked as is hay. This is
sometimes difficult where the blow
stacker is used. Much can be done
toward saving the straw by trim
ming up the pile after threshing.
If the straw is dug away from the
bottom so as to form a straight wall
five or. six feet high all the way
around stock can not we'll tear it
down.
The straw so dug away should
either be hauled to the barns for use
or spread on the land thinly for
blowing under. The top should also
be trimmed up and put in shape tC
shed rain as much as possible. This
will result in dry straw for feed OF
bedding when wanted and will add
much to the dryness of the barn
where used and to the comfort and
health of the livestock. Frozen
chunks of straw make poor bedding
and in thawing result in damp
barn.-Andrew Boss, vice director OF
the Minnesota Experiment Station.

ton to the care Of all implements.
The useful life Of the machine is no
longer now than it was when prices
were much lower. One of the great
est sources of loss in farm machinery
is the loss from the lack of housing.
This cost should not exceed per
cent annually of the value of the
machinery housed. That is, if a
machine shed cost $500, the annual
cost of the shed could be figured
about as follows: Interest on $500
at 6 per cent, $48; depreciation of
shed, 2 per cent, SIG; interest, So;
taxes, So; repairs, paint, etc., 81.
The total, $72, is per cent of ST.
500, therefore a shed that cost $500
should house at least $1,000 worth
of farm machinery. If this is true,
the cost of shelter of machines would
be approximately per cent of their
value, or it would cost about 81 a
year to house a machine that cost
800. If the shed can be built for
less money, the machinery cost and
cost of production will be correspond
ingly reduced"

Shriveled Wheat Has Seed Value

While plump seed wheat should al
ways be planted if possible, slight
ly shrunken seed may, however, be
expected to yield satisfactorily, &C
cording to Robert G. .Dahlberg, in
charge of seed analyses of the Min
nesota experiment station. Mr..
Dahlberg explains as follows:
"The wheat kernel contains two
very important parts, the germ or
young wheat plant, and the food
which the young plant lives upon I'M
til its root system is we'll established.
The more food the kernel contains,
the more chance the yonug plant has
| to establish itself. During a grow
ing season when the conditions are
very favorable all of the stored food
may not be necessary. A somewhat
! shrunken kernel with consequent
/ smaller amount of food material may
produce as strong plant with as big
yield as the plump berry. How
ever, when weather conditions are
not so favorable, there is decided
advantage in planting plump seed.
There are greater possibilities for a
| good early stand.
"Slightly shrunken seed may show
as high a percentage of termination
as plump seed. 1t is to be expected
that as usual rule the germ will not
! be quite as strong. The amount to
SOW per acre will depend altogether
on the percentage of termination.
This can be determined only by a
termination test, which service will
be performed free of charge by the
Seed Laboratory, University Farm,
St. Paul, Minnesota"

County Agents Outwit Frost


How little band of county agents
outwitted Jack Frost and saved
thousands of bushels of potatoes from
loss by freezing during the cold spell
beginning the evening of October 9,
is related by S. B. Cleland, district
agent for northeastern Minnesota.
The county agents of Wadena, Cass,
Beltrami, Becker, Morrison, Otter
tail and Todd counties were holding
a conference at Wadena when the To-
cal Farm Bureau office received
word at 3 p. m. that a hard snow
storm was raging in Montana and
that a severe drop in temperature
would follow that night all over Min
nesota. Potato digging was at it's
height; thousands and thousands of
bushels Of tubers we're lying in piles
on the ground. Serious losses con-
frOnted the farmers unless they could
be warned. In this emergency the
county agents dropped all other
business and inside of As minutes
telephone messages went to central
points in the seven counties and we're
being relayed out over rural lines.
Managers of telephone companies
promptly co-operated by sending a
general call to rural telephones. AS

ten chickens, morning and night, in
deep litter. The pu1lets should have
access at all times to an egg mash
composed of equal parts by weigh
ing of corn meal, ground oats, bran,
shorts and beef scraps. If skinned
milk or buttermilk is available, the
amount of beef scraps can be reduced
one-ha1f.
when the pullets have become &C
customed to their new quarters they
may be allowed to range about the
farm, but should be carefully
watched at night and made to re-
turn to the poultry house."

Straw Valuable Farm By-Product

Because livestock raising is in
creasing and the demand for forage
and roughage is rapidly growing,
straw from the grain crops has be-
come an important by-product
Every stock raiser recognizes it's
value for feed or litter. On many
stock farms not nearly enough straw
is raised for the needs of the stock.
And yet much of it is wasted. A
great deal is still burned at thresh-
ing time or soon after. More Of it
is blown into poorly made piles and
stands unused fer a few years, oc-
cupying land that should grow crops.
And more is wasted in these poorly
