TUBERCULOSIS OF CHICKENS
Science Has Demonstrated That Dis
ease May Be Transmitted by
Swine to Poultry.

DR.. G. P. Fitch, chief Of the division
of veterinary medicine at the Mime
sofa college Of agriculture, states that
science has shown that tuberculosis
may be transmitted by swine to poul-
try and vice versa.
Tuberculosis in poultry is common
disease" he says, land it causes heavy
losses. Fowls affected with it become
lame, their combs lose their luster, and
their flesh falls away. There is a gen.
orally rundown condition. tuberculosis
can be controlled by the removal of
infected birds and by a thorough clean
ing up Of their quarters. The disease
cannot as a rule be transmitted through
the eggs. Its Introduction can be
traced usually to infected fowls"

Under present conditions, lime manu-
facturers are no longer able to adjust
their business to this practice. Ow-
ing to shortage Of labor in their own
plants and transportation difficulties,
last-minute deliveries can no longer be
made with certainty.
For these reasons the department Of
agriculture urges that spring needs be
anticipated and that orders for lime
be placed at once. Dealers and man
ufacturers should have advance in
formation as to fafmers' needs so that
orders can be combined and car space
used to the best advantage. Delay In
ordering may result in failure to OBJ
tain the lime until too late.
1t is, moreover, the desire of the
railroad administration that the sea-
son for delivery Of lime, which has
heretofore been from March to May,
be extended to include the period from
January to May, in order to relieve, as
far as possible, the existing car Snort
age.

Soy-bean seed now is of considerable
value, and it is essential that all farm
ers who have raised it thrash and
store it so as to prevent deterioration
and loss.
The ordinary grain separator can
be adjusted to thrash any beans sue
cessfully, but this machine. if equipped
to thrash small grains, must be re-
adjusted when soy beans are to be
thrashed, as otherwise a large per-
centage Of cracked seed will result.
The chief cause Of split beans is the
high speed of the cylinder, which
should be reduced at least one-half,
although the speed Of the fans and
other parts Of the separator may be
maintained at normal.
Satisfactory Machines.
Special pea and bean separators OF
different sizes are now on the market.
These types of machines do clean
hulling and split practically none of
the beans. Undoubtedly such separa-
tors are more satisfactory and econom-
ical where a considerable acreage of
beans is grown. In sections where
there is an extensive seed production,
investment in such machine by
community would be profitable.
Soy beans, if thoroughly dry, can
easily be thrashed with q fail. If one
has only a small acreage-an acre or
so-this method is practical and eco
nomical. In few sections, corn
shredder has been used to advantage
in the thrashfng work and where the
beans are property cured and dried,
