ASK PROTECTIVE LAWS

The trappers and those lntefsIeo
in fur production in the state are be-
ing asked whether closed season on
muskrats is advisable. Carlos Avery
game and fish commissioner, has
sent questionnaires to interested par
ties in all parts of Minnesota. The
law gives the governor power to de-
clare a closed season on recommen-
dation of the game commissioner.
Two answers were received Friday,
one urging that a closed season be
established for, at least one year,
and both in favor of shortening the
open season to make if from Dec. l
to March /, instead of from Dec. l
to April 1. The trappers express
the view that the state will be de-
pleted of furbearing animals if
there is no protective legislation.

j. j. Willaman, assistant professor
of agricultural analysis in the divis-
ion of agricultural biochemistry at
University Farm, reports further pro-
gress this year in the matter of de-
veloping the sorghum cane industry
on Minnesota farms. A splendid OBJ
ject lesson is afforded by the WAGON
ia sorghum mills to which neighbor-
hood farmers have delivered as high
as 800 tons of sorghum cane within
a day and which is grinding 100 tons
of cane daily.
The outstanding fact presented by
Mr.. Willaman is that the sorgum
cane industry, under conditions pre-
vailing around Waconia, is profit
able crop for those who cultivate it.
From IL to Is tons of cane selling at
from 81 to So ton are produced
from an acre, or around $500 gross.
The cost of growing, harvesting and
hauling to the mill does not exceed
$40 to the ace.
Cultivation of the cane follows
closely the rules for the cultivation
of corn. The cane is harvested by a
corn binder and the bundles are haul
ed directly to the mill where high
class strip, Mr.. Willaman says, is
produced.
Under the impraced system en-
voedlv by the owners of the mill who
are working in cooperation with the
chemists of University Farm, the by
products of the sorghum cane are be-
coming more and more factor in
the industry. Plots for that propa-
ton of high class seed are being
maintained for the purpose of devel-
oping a seed that will make for
earlier maturity of the plant, for
higher yield of sugar and for great
er purity of juice.
The seeds, leaves and bagasse, or
spent can are put to practical use
and furnish valuable by-products.
Much of the seed, after being thor
oughly dried. is resold for planting
purposes and the rest of it for live

and efficiency of the farm home and
community is wise and legitimate
expenditure. That the work and
cause are gaining is shown by the
increased moral and financial sup
port of local communities extended
last year to the nearly 800 agents
now employed over the country"
This is the time of the year when
poultry raisers should in their f1ocks
because. it will soon be time for
housing. If there is infection among
your birds it will spread more quickly
after they have been housed because
of the close contact with one another.
Tuberculosis is one Of the common
diseases among poultry but a good
many of the poultry raisers hardly
realize the fact. Dr.. G. P. Fitch OF
the University Farm with the Coun-
ty Agent visited five farms few
days ago and inspected the fiocks
and on four of these farms we found
a large per cent of the birds infected
with this disease. In every case the
owners were advised to dispose OF
the birds and buy new stock IN
some cases the entire fiocks. To dis
pose of the birds and buy new stock
and put on the premises without a
general cleaning up will not help mat
tiers a particle. A thorough cleaning
and disinfecting on all premises
must be practiced before introduce
ing new birds.
Registration for another years
work at the Minnesota college OF ag-
riculture and the Central school OF
agriculture at University farm, St.
Paul, indicates that the attendance
this year at these two units OF the
state university will be even greater
than las, y-al. when the increase IN
the student body was 40 per cent
over previous years. The registra-
ton in the college last year was 1873
