VALUE OF UNDRAWN POULTRY
Experiments Conducted by Department
of Agriculture Show Birds Spoil
Less Quickly.

Poultrymen still discuss the rela-
tive merits of drawn and undrawn
poultry. Practice varies in different
communities. Opening the body I'M
doubtedly exposes the internal surface
to the air which always contains mi
cro-organisms, and thus may hasten
decomposition; but it should be re-
membered also that the viscera decom-
pose more rapidly than other parts Of
the body, and if left they may faint
or infect the rest of the, bird.
In elaborate experiments with
drawn, partly drawn, and undrawn
poultry, conducted by the United
States Department of Agriculture, it
was found that undrawn birds spoil
least quickly, and partly drawn ones
less quickly than the fully drawn ones
from which, not only the viscera, but
also the heads and feet, have been re.
moved.

a number of years, but it was not pos
sible to introduce it extensively be-
cause of scarcity of seed. In the re-
gion where it was most valuable it has
not been feasible to raise purple vetch
in large quantities because CT climatic
conditions. In the North, on the
other hand, the seed can be grown sue
cessfully, but there the purple vetch'
is not in as great favor for forage
as common vetch, which is harder and
has become established in popularity.
To make bridge between the two
geographically distant localities has
been the work of a number of years
on the part of the department experts.
1t was first necessary to demonstrate
the value of purple vetch in the
South, and afterwards to induceenorth-
ern farmers to substitute it to some
extent for their customary crops. This
latter was difficult, because purple
vetch was not quoted in the market,
and also because, where sale was eff
lfected, farmers were tempted to sell
their entire stock, reserving no seed
to maintain or extend the acreage.
: The assistance of large California
fruit growers association was enlisted,
and last year 500 acres were grown
under guarantee, large portion Of
the yield being kept for seed. This
year northwestern California and Ore
gon farmers will receive 141a cents
pound for purple vetch seed, which
should give them from $3.50 to 5000
per acre in addition to the straw. From
now on it is expected sufficient seed
will be available for all needs.

BUILDS WEEVIL-PR00F CRIB
Southern Farmer Demonstrates How
Log Building Can Be Made Secure
Against Insects.

The county agent of Taylor county,
Fla, reports that one farmer in his
community has worked out way by
which a log corn crib can be- made
practically alright to guard the corn
against weevils. This farmer put
three or four inches of dirt on the
floor and covered it with another floor.
The walls were covered with rough
lumber, and the cracks outside were
filed with clay. The door facings
were padded with cloth and the door
made of two layers of cypress lumber,
with piece of paper roofing between.
This arrangement cost about $40, in
addition to the farmers labor. Others
in this neighbOrhood are building
cribs in the same way.

prepared by the United States Depart

Due largely to the intermediary eff
forts of the United States Department
of Agriculture, 2,400 acres of purple
vetch is reported as being grown this
year for seed in northwestern Califor-
MIA for use in the orchards Of the
southern part of the state, where 1t
has proven superior green-manure
crop. The superiority of purple vetch
in California for green manure lies Ia
the fact that 1t, makes more growth
during the winter months and can be
turned under earlier than other legume
crops.
Purple vetch was first brought to
this country from Italy in 1899 and its

plants but which will kill the ''lice."
The most common of these contact
pOisons is nicotine sulphate-a tobac-
co extract-made of tobacco refuse
from factories. This is a poison and,
to be effective in killing the ''lice"
without injuring the plants, must be
used exactly according to the direc-
lions given on the container. United
States Department of Agriculture
Farmers Bulletin $50, on the control
Of garden diseases and insects, has
the following to say regarding the use
Of nicotine sulphate:
''For small garden plats one tea
spoonful of nicotine sulphate should
be used to one gallon of water, to
which a one-inch cube of hard soap
should be added and thoroughly mixed.
If larger quantity is desired, use one
fluid ounce to eight gallons of water,
with the addition of one-half pound of
soap. Full directions are given on the
covers of packages, and instructions
accompany them.
Effective Application of Spray.
''In the use of nicotine sulphate the
effective application of the spray is of
the utmost Importance, since it is pri-
marily upon this that the success or
failure of the treatment depends. If
the liquid has stood for any length of
time it should be agitated thoroughly
before use. The insects themselves
must receive a thorough coat of the
spray or they will not be killed, and
immediate inspection after spraying
should show the foliage occupied by
the insects to be completely wet.
Spraying should be done as early
as possible, always on the first appear
ance of the insect, not only because
it is good practice to keep the plants
free from pests but because more thor
ough work can be done on small plants"
The main point is to start the fight
in time and kill the advance scouts
and head off the main army of insect
pests
