CHICKEN PARASITES

If disease and parasites could be
eliminated from the poultry flock the
work Of the owner would be much SIM
plified and his profits much larger. AS
this can not be done the next best
thing is to keep under control as rig
orously as possible the enemies of
the chicken world.
The best way to accomplish this is
to get eggs from a flock which has
shown no indications Of contagious
disease for at least year; avoid put
ting these eggs in any packing. such
as chaff, oats, or cut straw, which may
be musty or moldy, and hatch them
in a new or thoroughly cleaned incu-
bator. The young chicks Should be
free from parasites and injurious
germs of all kinds. To keep them
in this condition they should be put
into new or clean brooders and per-
mitted to run only upon ground where
poultry has not previously been kept
or which has not been used for poultry
for several years.
Hens used for Matching should be
selected from a flock known to have
been free from other diseases than

USE GOOD SEED CORN

The quantity and quality of the corn

on the kind of seed you plant this

preserved from ripening to planting

of the seed will be retained.
1t should have been selected in the
fall from the stalk, but if that was
neglected. all that can be done now is
to obtain uniform type of seed true
to varietal characteristics and that

Practically the only element in crop
production that the farmer has COM

planting of good seed.
1t is important that farm seeds be
tested before they are sown. Other

even under the most favorable wealth.
er conditions. Seed testing for prac-
tical results can be done much more
easily than is generally believed.
The essential preparation for max
ing seed tests consists of providing
the simple apparatus necessary and of
becoming familiar with the general
purposes and methods of testing and
the features of importance peculiar
to tests of particular kind of seeds.

AMERICAN EGYPTIAN COTTON

SO great has been the success of
growers of Egyptian cotton in the
southwest, particularly in Arizona.
that the acreage to be planted this
year probably will greatly exceed that
OF 1919, which was approximately
10000. Some predictions are that the
total planting will be as much as
10000 acres.
The Egyptian cotton now being
grown so extensively is a long staple
variety which has come to be distinct
from any long staple cotton grown in
Egypt by reason Of scientific plant
breeding conducted by federal spe-
cialists. With the exception of Sea
Island, now practically destroyed by
the boil weevil, and the Meade, but
yet established on a large scale, there
is nothing in this country to compare
with this American Egyptian cotton.
Because of its superior quality and
especial fitness for making thread. au-
tomobile tire fabric, and other prod
ucts, strong demand for it has de
veloped
All of the Egyptian cotton seed now
planted in the Salt River Valley in
Arizona and in the Imperial Valley
is OF the Pima variety, developed by
the federal specialists. Special atten-
tion is called to this fact because
commercial interests which have un-
dertaken to promote the growing of
this cotton on large scale in Arizona
and California have given their prod
uct a distinctive name, though grown
from seed of the variety developed
by the department of agriculture.
