Late HdtChed PuIIetS
and Stacker Hens Mean
FetC Eggs This Winter

Keeping late-hatched pullets
through the winter together with
flock of unculled Stacker hens often
overcrowds the farm poultry house
and means loss in winter egg pro
duction. If plenty OF house room
is available the late-hatched pull
lets may be kept over until spring,
but in many cases the small num-
her Of eggs that they will lay then
does not pay for the feed which
they have consumed during the
winter. For this reason, il Is more
economical to sell or eat such birds
during the fall or early winter In
addition 10 this, keeping the late
Matched pullets in the flock until
spring means using them for breed
ers on the average farm which usu-
ally results in a large number or
weak chicks.
Culling Of the pullets should b.
done in the early fall when the
fowls are placed in their winter
quarters. Those which have feath-
cred out slowly, show a lack of Vi
tality are small for their age and
show serious physical or color de-
fects should be sent 10 market or

The best winter layers among
puIIets are usually the ones that

ally mature quickly and are ready

ties o. any kind usually tend TO pre-
vent growth and maturity so that

CROP REPORT IMPLIES
GOOD SEASON FOR ALL
LINES OF BUSINESS

An affirmative report Of leading
crops always implies a good business
season, and this always means "A
prosperous year for manufacturers
This years agricultural output
surpasses any former year. It is
possible. say agricultural experts,
that wheat will be 130,O00.O0O bu-
shells in excess Of 1917 and will sur
pass any crop harvested before the
war. other staple crops promise a
substantial increase.
1t is estimated that this years
corn crop will exceed that of any
previous year by $4,000, 000,0 900.
This figure alone will dispel any
pessimism over the agricultural
stats of the country. This years
crop on top of many prosperous
years doubles the purchasing pow
er Of the farmer. While many OF
the Indiana farmers must be salts
fed with an ordinary wheat crop
other produce makes up for the
wheat and is sufficient TO dispel any
pcsSimistic views regarding business
possibilities for the coming year.

HOG-CHOLERA MONTHS
At HAND; SHOULD
WATCH HERDS CLOSELY

October and November are the
months when the dread disease.
hog cholera, is most likely to ap-
pear. During those months and
until snow covers the ground swine
raisers are urged by the county
agent to be especially observing
when feeding hogs in the morning.
Any animals which fail TO come to
their feed, and particularly thosee
having arched backs and rough
coats, should be removed promptly
from the herd.
In some cases hogs sick with
cholera die within a few days; in
others the disease may assume a
chronic form and lnger for several
weeks. If cholera is suspected
swine growers should Immediately
call a competent veterinarian TO
make a proper diagnosis and To
apply the preventive serum treat

F all Seeding Of Oats advantageous
Crop Yields Better; Natures Earlier

Fall seeding of oats has numer-
Gus advantages over spring seed
ing. where the fall-sown varieties
can be successfully grown. as in the
states OF South Carolina, Georgia,
Alabama, Florida, Mississippi and
Louisiana; in Virginia and North

nOunce specialists Of the United
States department of agriculture. in
Farmers Bulletin 1119. entitled.
"Fall-sown Oats"
Fall Seeding Preferable.
Under the climatic conditions in
those states the fall-sOwn crop usu-
ally yields better and natures
earlier. The land can usually be
prepared in better shape in the fall
than in the spring. Fall seeding
interferes less with other work.
Poorer land and less fertilizer can
be used. The fall-sown crop fur
nishes n cover for the soil during
the winter and prevents washing.

COST SI2.52 FOR
FEED FOR HUNDRED
POUNDS OF PORK

county farmer S12.52 for feed alone
to produce 100 pounds Of pork, &C
coriing TO records he has just tab
ulated after cooperating for a year
in a swine producuo. demonstra-
ton. His pigs were marketed early
in september at SIS per hundred
pounds, which shows that he OPP
Grated on a very narrow margin
when vaccination, interest and mis-
cellaneOus expenses. in addition to
his labor were added onto the cost
OF feed.
The feed cost includes all the feed
fed the sOws from the time they
were bred last November until the
pigs were weaned May /, and all
feed fed the pigs before and after
weaving time. Approximately two
and one-half hours OF labor were
required for each 100 pounds of
pork produced for which Mr.. Cain
would add 81 10 his cost OF feed
figures. which would show that a
very small profit was coming his
way with hogs selling at SIS.
Mr.. Cain followed economical
methods of production. The sows
were pure-bred and mated TO a
ration OF corn and whole oats. with
a little bran during pregnancy and
sucking period The pigs were Civ

a self-feeder when they were four
a self-feeder when they were four or
FIVE weeks old and continued on this
ration until they went to market,
with the exception of June and
early July when a limited ration OF
the same feeds was fed instead Of
a full ration. They had the run OF
an excellent rape and oats pasture
and plenty Of clean pure water and
shade all the time, making excellent
conditions under which to produce
pork.
Mr. Cain was the first Of 30 farm
ers in Union, Upton, Miami and
Hancock counties who are keeping
such records In cooperation with
Purdue, TO market his hogs. The
university is seeking TO aid the
farmers not only in demonstrating
economical methods of fattening
porkers for market, but also in sue
cessful practices OF producing pigs

where the demonstrations now are
being conducted. the results are be-

work will be gradually extended 10

27,S97 HOOSIER
BOYS AND GIRLS
IN FARM CLUBS
Finishing Projects Are Given
Attention of Leaders
In Indiana.

During the past summer, a total
of 27.S97 Indiana boys and girls,
principally those living on farms,
have been enrolled in agricultural
club work, according 10 the annual
report just published by the Agri-
cultural Extension Department Of
Purdue University. This is an in
crease Of only a few hundred over
last year, but no effort was made 10
boost enrolment, the leaders de-
voting their energies TO obtaining
a larger percentage of boys and
girls finishing the projects. Club
work is unusually strong in Indiana
because Of the hearty cooperation
being given by county boards OF
education, superintendent. state de-
partment of public instruction. state
board OF agriculture. employment
commission, federal board for vO-
cational education and L. S. Depart

NOW IS THE TIME TO
SAVE SEED CORN
Danger in Waiting - Frozen
Seed Means Big
Loss.

Every farmer in the corn belt who
has not already gathered his seed
corn, should not put if off another
day. Every days delay now adds
to the danger of the seed corn's be-
ing frozen.
1t does not cost any more to take
any more time TO harvest seed corn
right now than it will to do II later.
Everything is to be gained and Moth
ing is TO be lost by harvesting it
now.
Corn is in fine shape. Since the
first Of August il has gained rapidly.
Government reports give its condi-
ton Sept. 1 as 81 per cent, as COM
pared with Sc per cent on Aug. l.
1t is in still better shape now
August and most of September
furnished ideal weather for corn.
Cold weather has held off; it was
abnormally hot during many days
even after the middle of September,
but we do not know how soon we
may have a heavy freeze
Because Of unfavorable weather
early in the growing season, there
is still considerable moisture in most
of the corn. and il there should
come a sudden freeze, much seed
corn would be ruined.
In the corn belt seed corn should
he harvested not later than oct. g.
In the more northern states Il
should be gathered earlier than that.
II Is getting late and we cannot at
ford TO longer put off gathering our
seed corn. We cannot afford to
take any chances.
Valuable Crop.
Corn is the most valuable crop
grown. Our own prosperity. the
prosperity OF the country. depends
more upon the corn crop than upon
all the other cereals combined. and
we cannot afford to depend for seed
upon the occasional good ears we
find during the husking season. or to
select our seed from the crib in the
spring.
Frozen seed corn costs the country
Millions Of dollars every year. It
means poor seed, a poor stand. use
less labor. reduced production. We
should go into our best fields before
freezing weather sets in and select
the best ears from the most vigor
Gus stalks. Six bushels Of seed
corn will plant about 43 acres. out
toprovide for all ordinary emery
encies. we should save Is or 20
bushels for every 20 acres This
vii lenable us to plant only the best
and strongest ears.
1t viii be wise 10 save enough
seed to last two years. Next lear's
crop may fail 10 mature and will be
hard pressed for seed the following
year. unless we have some good
corn left over from this year
As soon as the seed corn is har-
vested. is should be- husked ana
hung up in an attic or some upstairs
room where the windows can be
opened and the air can freely cir
Culate around the corn.
One OF the best methods is 10 tie
the corn up with binding Irvine and
suspend the strings from horizontal
wires or from nails driven into the
rafters. No two ears OF corn should
touch. and the strings should be
hung in rows at least four inches
apart each way.
