PRUSSIA LEADING

Paris, May France continued To
fall behind Prussia in population dur
ing the war, according to figures
furnished by the National Alliance for
the Growth of the French Population.
In the years 1S75-76, when the
first census after the Franco-Prussian
war was taken in each country,
France surpassed Prussia in popule-
ton by more than 100000. The
low French birth rate enabled Prus-
STA to gain so rapidly that Prussia
had passed France several hundred
thousand when the World War broke
out.
During the war the population Of
France diminished by 97S,44O while
that of Prussia diminished by only
312,S27.

of drinking milk If they wish to be
healthy and strong.
Among the pupils who heard such
lecture in a school in Platte County,
wyo., were three boys from one fam
lily. All three were very much un-
derweight, as were two younger
brothers at home. Their mother had
had little training in the care and
feeding of children and the children

however, OF help carry out the sug-
gestions about food that the children
brought home from the lecture.
Two months later the home demon
stration agent met the mother, who
told her how pleased she was at the
children's gain in weight and general
health since their change in diet.
Then she said: II must tell you
about the experiment that the boys
tried with cats to show me that what
you told them about rats was true.
They thought that cats ought to do
as we'll as rats in an experiment of
that kind, and they had the cats and
didn't have the rats. So they took
two kittens, and to one they only
fed separated milk, and to the other
they gave whole milk with a table
spoon of cream added to each feed
ing.
at turned out with them just like
it did with the rats, to the intense
satisfaction of the boys. The kitten
that had the whole milk grew big
and strong while the one on the sepa-
rated milk diet was thin and puny."

Dust Bath For The Flock

If the best results are to be ex-
pected from the flock, the hens must
not be allowed to become overrun
with lice or the house with mites.
Usually, there will be a place in the
yard where the hens can dust them
selves in the dry dirt In the absence
of such a place, box about 2 feet
square and containing ordinary road
dust or fine dirt should be placed in
the house.
A dust bath aids the hens in keep
ing lice in check and therefore adds
to their comfort If they are not
able to keep them in check by dust
ing themselves, other measures can
be taken.-United States Department

Lack of knowledge concerning the
right food to feed rather than lack of
food is the cause of much of the NAL
nutrition found among children in
this country. child specialists say. and
home demonstration agents employed
by county farm bureaus il co-opera~
ton with the United States Depart

teach the lind of food that a grow
ing child should have.
Sometimes talks and demonstra-
tons are Iiyen to the mothers, and
sometimes they are given to the chit
dren at school. 1t is an interesting
fact that the best results come when
talks with the mothers are supple
mented by talking directly to the
children.
Milk, whole milk, is always advis-
ed as the ideal food for the growing
child, and sometimes the results of
the experiments made by an inyesti-
gator who fed milk to rats is told the

100000 Sparrows Destroyed BY VIM
ter Drive in Utah

Ter ttdh
Seven hundred thousand English
sparrows, each eating six quarts of
wheat a year, would mean a feed bill
of more than $4,000. Therefore,
the killing of 100000 English SPAR
rows means that amount of money
saved for the farmers concerned. And
nearly 100000 sparrows were killed
in a Statewide campaign in which
1888 Utah farmers Joined forces to
get rid of the pests during the winter
months.
County agents helped in the cam
paign, which used 5,243 pounds of
poisoned Dait. In most cases the
bait was made of wheat, poisoned
with strychnine in accordance with
recipe sent out by the Biological Sur
vey of the United States Department
of Agriculture. 1t was put up in
one-quarter-pound bags in the coun-
ty agents office. Full instructions
were printed on the bags for the use
of the poison. Each cooperator re-
ceiving the bait agreed to report on
the results. Usually the sparrows
were enticed for a few days by put
ting imprisoned bait in places not
frequented by ether birds and also in
accessible to the poultry of the farm.
Then few grains of poisoned wheat
were put out each day the dead
sparrows were gathered up, counted,
and either burned or buried every
few days to prevent the sparrow pop
ulation from becoming Suspicious.
The number of sparrows counted by
each farmer was reported to the COM
mitteemen or the county agent at the
end of the seasons work.
AS many as 240 dead sparrows
were gathered up as the result of a
single package of poisoned wheat.
IT is believed that where care was us
ed in placing the poisoned bait an
average OF rs sparrows were killed
with each one-quarter-pound package.
In each of several counties $4,000 to
100, 700 sparrows were destroyed.

Salt The Fleas.

A great many inquiries are reach
ing the Bureau of Entomology, United
States Department of Agriculture,
for methods of controlling fleas. The
work of the department has shown,
fortunately, that the best means of
controlling fleas in most instances is
very simple. Fleas usually origi-
nate in the basement of the house, or
in some covered place such as wood
sheds and stables, to which hogs,
dogs, or other such animals have ac-
cess. The remedy is to give the
basement, shed, or other breeding
place a thorough cleaning, burn the
litter, and then sprinkle the floor or
ground in the building or shed with
common salt. The salt should be
sprinkled thickly enough almost to
cover the ground and should then be
wet down with water, the specialists
say. 1t should not be wet sufficient
ly to cause it to run, however If
there are about the place any houses,
cribs, or the like built on piles so that
hogs and other animals can go under
them, salt should be applied there.
Generally speaking, it is fairly easy
to determine where the fleas origi
nate, and it is usually such a place
as can be reached by the salt treat
ment. 1t may be necessary to re-
peat the operation two or three times
at about three-day intervals.

Hessian Fly Withstands Cold.

Specialists of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture stationed in
the Middle West have determined
that, in spite of the severe winter,
at least three-fourths of the Hessian
flies in the "flaxseed" stage over
wintered successfully. Experiments
have shown, also, that Hessian fly
eggs exposed all night to a tempera-
ture of 8 degrees above zero will
hatch perfectly healthy maggots. The
indications are, therefore, that the
Hessian fly infestation this year will
be very severe. A severe infestation
was indicated last fall, the only hope
of alienation being that the num-
bers might be greatly reduced during
the winter. This did not occur.
Nothing can be done now toward
protecting the present crop from
damage, but information recently
gathered by the entomologists will
emphasize the necessity for the prac-
tice of control measures this fall
when planting is being done for next
years crop. Control consists in late
sowing, rotation of crops, blowing
under of stubble, destruction of
volunteer wheat, thorough prepara-
ton of the soil, the use of fertilizer,
and selection and proper sowing of
the best seed.

It's Now Time To Cook, Sell or Pen
The Rooster.

It's Now Time To Cook, Sell or Pen
The Rooster.
Farmers lose many millions of dol
lars annually from bad methods of
producing and handling eggs. Much
of this loss is preventable, because it
is due to the partial Matching of fer
tile eggs, which have been allowed to
become warm enough to begin to in
bate.
You can help save the loss due to
blood rings by keeping the male bird
from your flock after the Matching
season is over.
The rooster does not help the hens
to lay. He merely fertilizes the germ
of the egg. The fertile germ in hot
weather quickly becomes a blood
ring, which spells the egg for food
and market. Summer heat has the
same effect on fertile eggs as the hen
or incubator.
After the Matching season is over,
cook, sell, or pen your rooster. Your
hens in running with male bird will
produce infertile eggs-quality eggs
that keep best and market best
