cREOS0TE FOR FENCE POSTS
Best Preservative Treatment Consists
Of Boiling Wood in Liquid for
Short Period.

Five cents worth of creosote ap-
piled to fence post will prolong its
life many years. Posts tnat will last
ordinarily but four or five years In the
ground can be made to last 20 by treat
ing.
Woods like beech, birch, maule ash,
poplar and others that are not ordi-
narily used for fence posts, can be
made as durable as locust or cedar by
a preservative treatment with creosote.
This treatment does not consist simply
in painting the post with creosote or
in dipping it in creosote. While these
treatments do some good, they do not
insure deep penetration of the creosote
into the wood or the filling of the
cracks and season checks.
The best preservative treatment con-
sists in heating the posts in boiling hot
creosote for 80 TO 60 minutes, then
leaving them In the tank until the
liquid has cooled. The creosote will
be forced deeply into the wood and
thus fill all checks and cracks and
form an exterior shell of treated wood
that will prevent rotting. An old, dis
carded gasoline drum with the top cut
out, set up so that fire may be built
beneath, makes an excellent treating
tank at little expense.

GOSPEL OF BETTER FENCES
Novel "Drive" Inaugurated for I'm.
provement of Farms, Both in
Value and Appearance.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
With view to effecting a practical
improvement in the value and the ap-
pearance of the farms, a fye-day
"buy-a-fence" campaign was recently
conducted throughout the rural dis
tricts of Mississippi. This novel
"drive" was Joined in by local repre-
sentatives of the United States de-
partment of agriculture and the state
agricultural college. and other or
ganizations and agencies. Elaborate
plans for promoting the campaign
were worked out in advance, includ-
ing the organization in each county of
committees whose duty it was TO
spread the gospel of better fences.
The big saving to forage crops result
ing from better fences was pointed
out, likewise the labor saved in car
fng for live stock to prevent overfeed-
ing. An appeal was also made for
fields and homesteads that appear
well cared for.
Good as were the immediate results
of the campaign. it is believed that
the permanent benefits will be equally
large, in that it concentrated attention
on the fence question and is expected
to promote greater interest in this i'm
portant feature of farm improve
ments.

A few calculations in fractions indi-
cate clearly the early rewards to the
stock raiser from breeding with pure
bred sires instead of grade sires. The
bureau of animal industry, which is
sponsoring the nationwide better

tention to a series of diagrams issued
In Wisconsin which show the prog
ress Of breeding native cows for five
generations with purebred bulls, COM
pared with five generations of breed
ing with grade three-fourths full
blood bulls.
After five or, in fact, any number
of generations of such breeding the
calves are still less than three-quar-
ters full blood, while if only purebred
bulls are used, three-quarter bloods
are produced in the second generation,
and the calves of the fifth generation
are thirty-one thirty-seconds full
blood. The characteristics of the
breed rapidly become fixed in stock
In which only purebred sires are used,
while after any number of generations
of breeding to three-quarter-blood
sires the characteristics of scrub stock
still frequently appear. A three-quar-
ter-blood bull is much more likely to
transmit unfortunate characteristics

DRY BAN ON Cider
AND FRUIT JUICES
They Must Not Contain More
Than Half Of One Per
Cent Alcohol.

WaShington.-In one of the broadest
constructions yet placed on provisions
Of the act for enforcement of consti-
tutional prohibition Commissioner
Kremer has ruled that fruit juices and
elders come within the dry ban if they
contain more than one-half of one per
cent alcohol. The commissioners in
depreciation of the law was set forth
in memorandum charging prohibition
directors and inspectors with the added
duty of examining the alcoholic con-
tent of such beverages.
The drastic regulation goes into eff
feet with constitutional prohibition.
Violation of it carries the same penal
ties as for the manufacture or sale
of stronger liquors.
Strict enforcement of the regulation
will hold liable dealers in fruit juices
and elders in which the alcoholic con-
tent increases even while in storage
The department does not intend, how
ever, to gauge all beverages thus pro-
duced, officials said, but "a watchful
eye" would be kept on these manufac-
turers and dealers. Natural fermen-
tation will offer no excuse for evasion
of the regulation, it was declared.
Employment of a force of $500
watchmen to guard 69,000,000 gallons
Of liquor held in government bonded
warehouses is planned by the Internal
Revenue Bureau to protect the liquor
against thefts, which are occurring
daily, Prohibition Commissioner Krem-
er told the House Appropriations Com
mittee. He asked that Congress make
100000 available Immediately for
establishing the guard
Distillers who own the liquor were
said by the commissioner to be press
ing the bureau for an increased guard
because they are compelled, under
their bond placing their liquor in the
warehouses, to pay S6.40 a gallon for
Withdrawals, and thefts come within
this provision.
Commissioner Kremer in telling the
committee of plans for action later in
the week, when the constitutional pro-
hibition amendment becomes effective,
said force of 400 agents for enforce
ing the law had been organized. This
force will be dual organization,
most of the agents being raiders and
detectives with the other portion form
ing the branch of the bureau to have
charge of permissive sales.

PURE AIR QUITE NECESSARY
Drafts Should Be Carefully Avoided
and Poultry House Kept at Even
Temperature.

Filthy air is practically breathing
poison. Pure air furnishes the oxygen
which keeps the life processes going
and when the air becomes stale or foul,
the birds become weak and sickly.
The problem for the poultryman, there
fore. is to let in plenty of air without
drafts and without making the hen
house so cold as to be uncomfortable.
On almost all sunny days the windows
can be opened when the flock is exer-
cising. scratching in litter for its food,
and that gives a chance to air the
house thoroughly. Even in the coldest
night the windows may be lowered n
little at the top (very little when it is
very cold) and the birds will obtain
fresh air. If the wind blows in, piece
of burlap can be hung over the open
space through which the air can get in
and by which the wind can be kept out.

Where Wheat, or Even Rye,

EXCELLENT AS COVER CROP
Can Be Grown on Land Where Spring
Sown Crops, Such as Corn, Have
Failed to Make a Stand
Many Other Uses.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture,)
Buckwheat is in general the best
grain crop for poor, thin land. Its nat
ural and favorite environment is back
in the hills" On land where wheat
or even rye cannot be grown with profit
buckwheat is often able to produce
profitable yield. The climatic condi-
tions, however, must be favorable.
On acid soils, which are quite COM
mon In the northern states, buckwheat
does well. 1t does not require large
supplies Of lime in the soil, although
lime is taken up largely by the plant.
Good Summer Cover Crop.
Low-grade fertilizers may be used to
advantage in the growing of buck
wheat as it can make use Of relatively
insoluble materials to better advan-
tage than the other grain crops. 1t
may be used to render available in
soluble phosphates, like rock phos-
phate, as these are taken up by the
plant In larger quantities than by
other small grains. To obtain the
greatest benefit from such applications
to follow crops, the buckwheat should
be grown as a summer cover crop to
be plowed under as green manure in
preparation for fall seeding.
Buckwheat serves to make even very
hard land mellow and friable. Conse-
quently it is a good crop to use in
preparation for such crops as potatoes.
AS it has a short growing period,
buckwheat can be grown on land where
spring-sown crops, such as corn, have
failed to make a stand. 1t can also
be used where the land cannot be
worked until late, or where other
crops have been drowned out by late
spring floods
Enlarge Farm Activities.
Buckwheat can be used to enlarge
farm activities. After other crops
that must be sown early are all in
there is often time to prepare land and
short growing season it may be sown
later than any other grain crop. Where
it is so used it often may be advisable
to SOW it even on rich land which other
wise could be used more proftably for
other crops.
Buckwheat Is a suitable, crop for
growing on new ground. Land just
cleared of timber or drained marsh
land containing much decaying vege-
table matter will produce good yields

FAVOR CALVES BORN IN FALL
In Spring They Are Sufficiently Grown
to Take Care of Themselves
Make Good Growth.

Calves born in the fall can be grained
and properly cared for and when grass
is ready to be pastured in the spring
they are sufficiently grown TO take care
of themselves. They thus have an OPP
portunity to make a good growth the
first year. which is very essential in
rearing a high-producing dairy COW.
