How to Make Hens Lay.

A Canon farmer had two hens.
And neither one would lay;
Tho he fed 'em both on ensilage
And the best of alfalfa hay.

He paid four bits for storage eggs
For his wife to make cake,
The eggs were poor, the cake was
worse,
And they both had the tummyache.

eEcRErARY OF AGRICULTURE
IN DENVER JULY IS

I, Hon. e. T. Meredith, our new Secre-
tary of Agriculture gave An interesting
and instructive talk to about 200 men
and women at luncheon given by the
Denver Civic and Commercial Asso-
citation at the Hotel Metropole in Den-
YER ON July Is.
Ex-Governor Ammons introduced
him as dirt farmer as well as q book
farmer because he owns and operates
a 350-acre farm. Therefore from the
farmers point of view he Is thorough,
1y competent to be Secretary of Agri-
culture.
Secretary Meredith gave many illu-
strations where the important work
of the Department of Agriculture had
been seriously handicapped by the cut
in the appropriations for the work Of
that Department. He did not lay all
the blame on Congress because most
congressman thought they were prac-
ticing economy. He blamed the indi-
vidual farmers nd business men for
not trying to present the facts more
strongly to congressman SO that they
would realize the Importance of the
work He plainly pointed out that
nearly every person was directly az
fected by some activity of the Depart
ment, and that any curtailment in
these activities would be directly re-
flected on every consumer as well as
producer.
In discussing the relative import
ance OF the farming industry to other
industries. he showed that there were
80 billion dollars invested In the In
dustry of farming with an annual in
come OF 25 billion dollars, yet congress
appropriated only one-fourth OF one
per cent Of this amount to maintain
the Department Of Agriculture In car
rying on all Of its various activities.
Specialists ON the hog cholera work
alone last year saved 40 million dollars
worth OF hogs, yet this year this work

formed operators are inclined to feel there is little if any saving in these items, particularly on short hauls. On long hauls, however, the advan- tage seems to lie in favor of pneu- matics.
 When it comes to tires there is no question. The cost of pneumatics av- craze two to three times that of solids. This is due, to the higher initial cost of the equipment and the spare tires, their greater susceptibility to abuse and accident, and their lower average mileage.
 So far as the cost of repairs to the truck is concerned, comparative data of a reliable nature cannot be ob- tained. The evidence indicates, how ever, that, except for the engine, the cost of repairs will be considerable less on pneumatics than on solids, due to the reduced variation. And if the engine is not run at excessively high speed or continually overworked it will prove less subject to damage on pneumatics.
 Summing up the factors affecting the saving of time and money, have come to the conclusion that no general claims in favor of pneumatics equip ment on trucks as a whole coming in the debatable field can be substantial ed, and that the work to be done by each specific installation must be an alyzed carefully before either type of tires can be safely considered the more economical.
 (Next week the Features of Tire Service in the Field" will be discussed by MT. Norton.)

DR. MARSH STUDIES
 LOCO IN ARIZONA

Stockmen of Arizona have lost more stock during the past spring from loco than for several years. The reports which came to the authorities of the College of Agriculture from both stockmen and county agents showed that the situation was acute, and through the efforts of the Agricultur- al Extension Service federal poison plant expert was secured to spend a short time on Arizona grazing ranges. The report of this specialist, Dr. c. D.. Marsh of the Bureau of Animal Indus try has just been subp:irted and is re- viewed in the following article, with additional notes, by Professor J. J.. Thornber, Botanist of the Agricultural Experiment Stat on. Professor Thorn Der has had years of experience in Arizona in the field of poison plant determination and control.
 In driving from Tucson to Nogales Dr. Marsh received reports of occa- sional locoet cattle in the neighbor-
 ood of Continental. Astragalus Woo- toni is the common loco about here and grows mostly in the deep, valley soils. At Patagonia and Elgin stock were found to be affected quite diff ferently from that of ordinary loco poisoning. Cattle become weak in the back and seem to lose power to handle their legs. Some stockmen have call ed this tottering loco. The loco plant which causes this disease is generally believed to be small lcco weed which grows low and spreads out on the ground. It grows rather thickly on hillsides and in small sandy draws and along washes throughout many parts of southern Arizona. This plant is known botanically as Aragailus noth- oxus. This loco weed has been re- ported more times during the recent spring season as causing loco in stock than all other kinds of loco in south ern Arizona combined. The best known remedy is to remove stock from the ranges where it is abundant until after the middle of June when it mostly disappears. Dr. Marsch has with stockmen to have quan-
Mohave County miner and our mineral wealth., 1920-07-03

titles of this plant collected for feed ing experiments at the Salina Experi- ment Station in Utah during the pres ent summer. In the vicinity of Elgin and Patagonia Thurber's loco (Astra- galus ThurberD and hairy loco (As- tragalus BigelOwiD were also found Both of these plants are known to cause loco in stock.
 On March 29, Dr. March visited County Agent Adamson at Wilcox and examined the ranges in the inn mediate vicinity. Here he found two species of loco quite common, viz:
 airy loco (Astragalus Bigelqwii) and tall loco (Astragalus diphysus). The rayless golden-rod which is a partic- ularly injurious plant in Pecos Valley, New Mexico, was also found in the neighborhood of Wilcox.
 At Flagstaff on March 31, Dr. Marsh addressed a stockmen's meet ing. In this locality he found the we'll known purple loco (Aragallus Lam berth very abundant. This causes losses among all classes of stock.
 Dr. Marsh was in Apache and Nava- jo counties from April 2 to April 8 with County Agent Fillerup. He found the usual amount of loco be- tween Flagstaff and Winslow. The grazing ranges south of Holbrook had considerable loco, known botanically as Astragalus diphysus MacDougall. This has smaller fruits and does not grow as tall as Astragalus diphysus. It is, nevertheless, a serious loco weed growing throughout this country and in Chino Valley,where often it is very abundant. Locoed animals were found in the vicinity of Snowflake, probably from eating Astragalus diphysus Mac Dougall and a tall loco with yelowish flowers known locally as black loco. Locoed cattle were also seen in the vicinity of Springerville, where Astra- gaiHs diphysus MacDougall is quite common. This loco was found to be particularly abundant in the country west of the Terrified Forest. Some plants of hairy loco (Astragalus Bige- lOwiD were found here. Generally speaking, the ranges contain an ex- ceptionally large amount of loco this spring. This is due partly to the heavy rains of the previous summer, winter and spring months. With req sonable rainfall next year it is to be expected that the growth of loco next year will also be heavy. MT. Fred Coulter, Eager, Arizona, has been do- ing some good work in eradcating loco in his pastures, and generally it may be said that loco can be profi- tably eradicated from areas under fence and control. The loco plants are killed by being cut off just below the crown with a sharp hoe or spud iron. Of course, this work should be done when tha plants are beginning to blossom so that no seed will be formed next year.
