ONIONS PREPARED IN FIELD
When Weather Is Favorable Yellow
and Red Varieties Can Be Cured
in WindroWs.

Onions are sometimes allowed to
cure in windows in the field, and If
the weather is clear, yellow and red
varieties can be handled successfully
in this manner. 1t is preferable, how
ever, to place them in Slated crates
soon after topping and pile in open
sheds or in stacks in the field. In the
latter case the piles should be COW
cred with temporary roofs for protec-
ton from rain. Exposure of white
varieties to damp weather in the field
will almost invariably prove fatal, and
they should be placed in curing shed,
where advantage can be taken OF clear
weather and protection can be given
Turing rainy periods.

S1T NOTES

The trouble with the average hog
house is that it is not tight.
Save all the breeding animals suit
che for reproducing their kind.
Burn any hogs that die of cholera.
If there is any doubt be ON the safe
SIDE.
Hogs that are forced to breathe
foul, damp air are in no condition to
resist disease.
livestock raising has many adj
yantages over farming where crops
only are grown.
It usually pays best to sell hogs on
the first strong market latter they
reach 225 pounds.
Exercise is very essential for all

result from lack of exercise than aET

Such early spring use of the range not

Plants Grazed Too Early.
"Studies carried on at the Great
Basin experiment station in Utah have
proved that where plants are con-
tinually cut back or cropped, the root
system loses its vitality and the plant
soon dies. On some of the national
forest ranges, which are grazed early
and heavily, the forage plants are
showing similar signs Of serious dam

worse if remedial measures are not

their root systems weakened by re-

worthless weeds. Erosion of the soil
has also started in many places and
threatens serious erosion. Expert

some of the things which follow in
