from the managers that they close

Work animals may be protected

Work animals may be protected
largely from the pest by means of
coverings. One type of covering
, which has been found to be very eff
fective and Inexpensive consists of a
blanket made of double thickness of
! burlap, so arranged as to cover COM
pletely the back, sides. and neck Of
the animal. The legs also are covered
, sometimes by means of old trousers
slipped over the feet and tied over the
back. Leathersnets or strips of leath-
er attached to the bride also aid in
keeping the flies from the head. The
ordinary fly net has been found to be
of little value, as it only tends to dis
place the flies temporarily and cause
them to settle in places not covered by
the net.
Completely darkened stables offer
much protection from the flies, al
though the resulting lack of ventila-
tlon is Objectionable. The thorough
screening of all windows and doors is
much more desirable. When screened
barns are used, are should be taken to
brush the flies from the animals, when
they are about to enter, by means of
nets over the doorway or with sacks.
Little can be done to protect range
stock from the flies,

YOUNG WOMEN ATTACKED

in which sympathizers attacked en-
ployes of the National India Rubber
Company, arrived tonight. No disor
ders occurred after the quelling of
the fifteen minutes disturbance. The
military was in entire control of the
town tonight.
In the course of riots, which started
when young women clerks and other
non-striking employees were attacked
by strike sympathizers as. they were
preparing to enter the facotry, wo
men were wounded slightly by shots
fired by factory guards, and num-
Der of persons were hit by stones
thrown by members of the crowd.
Several of the young women were
handled roughly in some cases by
other women, who pulled their hair
and tore their clothes.
A strike has been in progress at
the plant for three weeks, resulting
from wage dispute.

What is the present situation? We
have today less beef in sight than for
several years, according to reports to
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture. which is kept closely advised
as to conditions on the ranges and in
the markets. The present price of
feed stuffs, scarcity of farm labor, re-
duced numbers of breeding animals,
and small margin of profits to the
producer the past year are all factors
which tend to limit production, and
impress the Importance of maintaining
production and producing beef as
cheaply as possible.
Utilize Pastures to the Utmost.
For an answer to this question. we
must look to Mother Earth. This is
sprlngtime, the crops are planted, the

grass is growing, and the cattle are on
the green. This means, in it's last
analysis, utilize pasture to the limit,
conserve roughages to the utmost, and
produce forages and feeding stuffs
which will make the most beef at least
cost.
The Bureau of Animal Industry of
the Department of Agriculture has for
several years been studying the prob
lem of utilizing these feeds to best
advantage. In 1914 the Department,
in cooperation with the West Virginia
Agricultural Station, began a series
of beef-cattle experiments in Green
brier County, West Virginia, to solve
beef production problems in the Ap-
palachian mountain region. This sta
tion is located in the southwestern
part of the State, in the bluegrass
area, and among the problems under

,, taken are: 1st--Most economical and
satisfactory rations for wintering
beef steers; 2d-The influence of these
rations upon the gains of steers the
following summer from grass.
The results of the experiments ap.
ply not to West Virginia, alone, but
to all States having similar conditions
which, in fact, includes the whole Ap-
palachlan region, extending from,
southern Tennessee to New York. Il
is within this general area that abun-
dant pastures, cut-over and waste land
is found, producing abundant pasture
of good quality for beef production
The summers are not too hot, nor the
winters too cold. The water supply is
plentiful, being provided by springs
and small streams that gush out Of the
limestone hillsides and down the val
leys unpolluted by communicating in
| fluences.
Abundant Pastures Available.
The South, with it's delightful eli
mate an dlong grazing period of ap
proximately 10 months of the year,
where carpet grass, bermuda and
other kinds almost equally as, nutri-
tious abound over the plains, the cut
over regions and waste lands of this
area. The Great Lakes region, prop
erly termed "clover land" where mil
lions of acres today are not completely
utilized by live stock all provide abun
dant pasture that is we'll adopted for
beef, production.
Utilization Increases Land Value
BY utilizing to the fullest extent
the land devoted to pasture, the value
of the land is increased and greater
profit results. A system of careful
management makes it possible to use
higher-priced land, than has hereto
fore been used for profitable beef
production. The intelligent uses of
pasture gives a return which compares
favorably with that form the cropping
system, but requires less labor.
1t is not possible to state just how
many cattle should be allowed to the
acre for grazing purposes, because
this is determined largely by the
quality and stand of grass, which is,
of course, variable.
In most sections the beef producer
who will obtain the largest net re-
turns is the man who will stock his
pastures so that the grass is kept
fairly short but in good condition
throughout the grazing period.

A FEW WAYS OF PROTECTING
STOCK FROM STABLE FLIES

The Importance of taking steps to
prevent the breeding of stable flies
rather than depending on protection of

grown, can not be emphasized too

done the farmer is forced to resort to

This question is heard on all sides

there you have it. But whatever the

ST. SWITHIN'S DAY WAS
THE 18TH OF JULY

st. Swithin's day, if thou dost rain,
For forty days it will remain;
st. Swithin's day, if thou be fair,
For forty days twill rain ma mair.
Nine hundred and forty-nine years
ago today a little party of church
men in England, sought and found
the almost forgotten grave of St.
Swithin, who died 1O1 years before.
They excavated the grave and were
ready to remove-the remains to an
other and more fitting resting
place for the patron saint of the
Winchester Cathedral.
A terrific storm accompanied by
thunder and lightning broke sud-
denly andJdrenched the burial party.
And with the characteristic super
stition of that day, the storm was
interpreted as a miracle protest
from St. Swithin, whose dying re,
quest was violated when his remains
were removed.
