FARM DEPARTMENT.
Conducted by the Farm Bure'

Conducted by the Farm Bureau.
The farm bureau Office has just
received . number Of blanks from the
Farm Bureau Federation for the pur'
pose Of getting . line on stock pro-
motion schemes that are being worked
in the county. The questionnsirs il
very complete and the experience in
some counties shows that atock sales
men often drop their work in the com
muni.v where they are confronted with
this form Of questionnaire Many farm.
ers who are ssked to buy stock in
doubtful concerns should find out first
whether the company has filled out this
questionnsire.
About l25 people attended the poultry
demonstrations conducted by the Farm
Bureau last week. On an average Of
about 25 per cent. Of the hens were
culled out - non-lAyers. The demon
strators called attention to the fact that
these non.egg layers showed very poor
capacity and had gone into . general
mott. J. J. Warren, of the State Agri'
cultural Extension Department, assisted
the Farm Bureau in conducting the
demonstrations and he stated that it 10
commonly believed that the early mott
ere will be the best winter layers. He
stated that this idea is entirely wrong
and that in the majority of cases the
early molters do not start laying again
until the following spring.
Folks who are trying to deliver sweet
cream to their cresmeries complain now
and then that thunderstorms sour the
cream. The dairy department at Iowa
State College says that thunderstorm
will have no effect on cream that is
kept at a low temperature.
For example, if milk and cream are
kept in cans 10 q cooling tank through
which flows all water pumped for the
live stock, thunderstorm will not affect
either of them. The installation of
such 4 cooling tank is not difficult nor
very expensive and it will make possible
added income from the dairy herd
through better price for sweet cream.
It is true, however, that indirectly q
sours cream which is not
kept cool. The atmosphere at
the time of thunderstorm is warm and
with moisture. There is less
from the water surround
ng the cream can and from the cream
tself and as q result the heat accom-
,anying the thunderstorm is retained by
he cream which sours.
