CARPET GRASS LIKES
WELL-PREPARED' BED
Seed May Be Sown Any Time
Till After Midsummer.
Method Of Seeding often Used Is to
Cut Grass With Mature Seed and
Scatter Hay over Land Where
a Pasture Is Desired.

On cultivated land, carpet grass sue
ceeds best on a well-frmed seed bed.
The seed may be sown any time from
early spring till after midsummer,
when the moisture conditions are ia
vorable. To secure full stand Of the
grass promptly, seed should be sown
at the rate Of ten pounds per acre. A
method of seeding that has often been
used is to cut grass with mature seed
and scatter the hay over the land
where 1t was desired to establish car
pet-grass pasture.
To establish carpet-grass pasture
in open forests or on cut-over land,
without going to the expense Of clear
ing, the standing trees should be dead
ened by girdling. The land to be
seeded should be burned over In win
ter in order to remove all the tall
straw or broom sedge. wire grass, and
other bunch grasses. Flowing or disk
ing Is not necessary. Carpet grass at
the rate Of five pounds per acre may
then be sown at any time after the
weather becomes warm, but preferably
when there is ample moisture.

WH0RLED MILKWEED

counties of Arizona and New Mexico,

plant on stock. Herds should not be
given the opportunity to eat any con-
siderable quantity Of this plant. 1t
Is especially dangerous to trail sheep
over whorled-milkweed area, or to
bed them down In the immediate
neighborhood.
The whorled milkweed Is foothIll
plant, not being found above an alti-
tude of 1900 feet, and sometimes
grows with great luxuriance about

Frequent cases of poisoning occur
when animals are confined to areas
where the plant grows, and have little

KILL OUT PERENNIAL WEEDS
Quack Grass and Canada Thistle Arc
Most Troublesome and Offer
Greatest Resistance.

Perennial weeds offer the greatest
resistance and require more thorough
and persistent effort to destroy them.
Two of the most troublesome Of our
common weeds are quack grass and
Canada thistle. The former may be
distinguished from other grasses If its
characteristic features are known.
Whatever method will destroy quack
grass will also kill Canada thistle or
any other perennial weed.
Fallowing or cultivation without a
crop Is the most certain method OF
eradication on large areas and may
be used to good advantage except
on sandy soils and those continuously
wet or very porous. Success depends
upon the depth of blowing and fire.
quent cultivation. The prevention Of
all leaf-growth In weeds means their
certain death. Certain cropping sys-
TENS will usually be successful with
quack grass.

In Catawba county, North Carolina,
live two boys. Their last name is Wag-
ner and their first names are Paul and
Aleen. The poultry club agent who
supervises their work does not state
In his report what their middle names
are, but, judging from their achieve
ments, Hustler would be eminently
suitable, for in 1910 these two lads
made profit Of $547.79 on their back
yard poultry and squads and won q
first prizes In the best shows in the
state, In both open and club classes.
Paul and Aleen belong to one Of
the many poultry clubs which are or
ganized by the United States depart
ment Of agriculture and the state col
leges. Last year they started the
hens of three different breeds-Whte
Leghorns, Barred Plymouth Rocks and
Rhode Island Reds. The eggs and
chickens which the boys sold from
their flocks during the year amounted
to S593.74 AS their expenses were
s29622, a profit Of s297.52 was left.
One end of the poultry house in the
Wagner back yard Is devoted to
pigeons, Of which Paul and Aleen have
about 100 pairs. A flying pen outside
allows the birds an opportunity for
outdoor flying and completes practi-
cal. inexpensive pigeon loft. Almost
every week these club boys ship
dressed squads to New York. In 1919
they sold 7S5 squads, number which,
from losing most of the young squads
Matched In January and February, Is
far below what they hope to sell In
an ordinary year. The amount re-
ceived for the squads sold was S445.23.
The cost of their feed was $19496,
leaving profit for the boys of $25O27.
Juvenile Poultry Clubs.
Only in comparatively recent years
has poultry production been recognized
as both a valuable national asset and
q very important part Of the opera

The grown-ups would do well to
emulate their example. On every hand
are instances where, by the use of Inn
proved methods, boys and girls are Sc
curing larger crop results with min
imum Of effort, and by proper grad
ing, packing and marketing methods
receiving maximum of reward for
their labors.
Some of the finest eggs-i In the coun-
try are produced in Kansas and Colo

through proper grading and packing
methods, the boys and girls generally
top the egg markets by at least 5 cents
a dozen. When eggs were so cents a
dozen in Massachusetts last year the
eggs marketed by boys and girls clubs
brought 81 a dozen because of their
superior quality. Boys and girls
poultry generally sells at a higher
price than the prevailing market level.
A Young Business Woman.
There are many individual instances
of notable achievements by boys and
girls. One is that of a fifteen-year-old
girl In Massachusetts who marketed
about 5000 cans of high-grade fruits
and vegetables last year. The prod
ucts were so well put up that the Col
ony club Of Springfield, Mass, desired
to contract for the entire output. AT
the present time this young woman

this year. There is potential busl-
ness woman who is destined to be one
of Americas highest types of useful

one part OF bran, one-half part of beef
scrap, with 3 per cent grit and 10 per
cent green feed. Feed this mash three
times daily, or use mash of three
parts corn meal, one part low-grade
wheat flour, one part bran, 5 per cent
beef scrap, and 3 per cent oyster shell,
with the green feed and grit added.
Influence Of Feeds.
The green feed is sometimes left
out of the ration during the last seven
days of fattening, as 1t tends to color
the meat and may produce slightly
fiabby rather than firm flesh; how
ever, 1t is easier to keep the ducklings
in good feeding condition on mash
containing green feed. Boiled fish may
replace the beef scrap, but should only
be fed up to within two weeks before
they are killed, as It may give fishy
taste to their flesh, United States de-
partment of agriculture specialists
suggest. A considerable quantity of
boiled fish is also fed in the mash to
laying ducks in sections where the
duck farms border on the water and
where fish Is available at very small
cost. This fish aids materially In re-
ducihg the cost Of feeding.

FISH MEAL GOOD AS
SUPPLEMENTAL FEED
Excellent In Hog, Poultry or
Dairy Rations.
Bureau OF Chemistry Knowing High
Protein Content Of Scrap Has
Been Active In Converting
Material Into Food.

The common domestic pig will never

ners but he knows how to order
meal as well as anyone. He is In a
fair way to demand fish course to
supplement his salad and vegetable
diet. He will take his nsh in the form
of fish meal, the refined by-product
made from sound, wholesome raw
material at the sardine. tuna, and sal
mon canneries, or from the menhaden.
The fish meal is not to be confused
with "fish scrap" coarser by-product
much used for fertilizer; the meal Is
made from clean, sound material and
is intended to be used as food for cat
tie and hogs. Formerly, the cannery
waste was all made into 'scrap" for
fertilizer purposes, but the bureau OF
chemistry, United States department
of agriculture, knowing the extremely
high protein content Of the scrap, has
been active in converting this material
into a high-grade protein feed. The
cleaned. selected portion Is ground to
fine, palatable meal which may be
used to replace tankage In hog, poul-
try, or dairy ratlons.
Fish meal has been recommended
as supplementary ration before now,
but popular prejudice against badly
prepared product has discouraged Its
use. The department of agriculture
has proved by feeding experiments
that fish meal equals the high-priced
tankage as a ration Ingredient, and
better methods of selecting and milling
have removed the causes of prejudice
The oil content of the meal adds
materially to its feeding value. So far
the experiments have shown that the
meal does not taint the animal prod.
uct, whether 1t be pork, butter. eggs
or milk. Moreover, by diverting the
fish meals to his animals instead OF
supplying It directly to his land as
fertilizer, the farmer loses but a trifie
of its fertilIzing value and gains Its
entire feeding value-thus making the
material yield two profits In the place
of one.
