ADVANTAGE or FALL CALVES
Dairy Products Bring About ons-Thlrd
More Money IN Winter Than in
Spring Season. 1

Several reasons why farmers find it
more profitable to raise fall calves are
given as follows by Prof. O. Larsen of
South Dakota State collegei
A COW that freshens In the fall win
produce about 20 per cent more milk
during the year than one that calves
In the spring.
Dairy products bring the farmer
about third more money In w1nter
than In spring.
Winter dairying allows Of more and
cheaper labor after the field work IN
done.
Winter dairying avoids flies that cut
down the milk flow and bother the
milk-fed calves
Calves dropped in the fall VIII do
well under good winter care and when
spring arrives they are ready for pas
ture with the other young cattle,
Avoid mating too early In the fall.

In q community where there is no
organized Boys Agricultural Club
the community clubs portion goes
into the County Club Fund. In each
case ten per cent Of the County Fund
la contributed to state fund. All
publications are required by law to
collect at least fifty per cent Of each
annual subscription, therefore one
half the annual subscription rate in
each case is sent to the paper which
In turn is donated to club work thru
the subscription Manager.
How Different Funds May Be Used:
In the case of the club member,
the twenty five cents he gets Is his
private property and may be used as
he sees fit. The Community Club
Fund may be used as prize money
for club members at a Community

CERTIFIED SWEET POTATOES

Tke sweet potato inspection and
certification service now carried on
by the State Plant Boards OF Arkan-
sas and Mississippi will in course OF
the next ten years mean the saving
OF millions of bushels OF potatoes to
the farmers OF these states. This SER
vice is designed especially to stop
the spread Of the three most serions
pests OF the sweet potato in this
country. Black Rot, Stem Rot and
the Sweet Potato Weevil.
Investigations made last year by
the Mississippi Plant Board showed
that great quantities OF sweet pota-
toes and sweet potato plants inject
ed with Black Rot were being
brought into the state from other
states and were also being moved
from place to place within the state.
This disease is already quite general
ly distributed throughout Missis-
sippl, and probably causes more loss
than any other pest OF the Sweet po-
tato. II growers Of sweet potatoes
will really inform themselves In re
gard to this disease 1t can be very
easily eradicated. Full information
can be obtained by writing to the
Agricultural Experiment Station,
Agricultural College. Mississippi. for
Bulletin No. 100, entitled Diseases
of the Sweet Potato In Mississippi
and How to Control Them, by
Professor d: G. Neal.
stem Rot is not as generally dis
tributed over the state as Black Rot
but is really more serious as tits
much more difficult TO eradicate.
Soil that 10 once infected Will remain
infected for many years. This dis
east is also discussed In the bulletin
previously mentioned.
The Sweet Potato Weevil is only
known to occur ON u few farms In
four counties In Mississippi, and the
State Plant Board In corporation
With the U. 8. Bureau Of Entomolo-
gy rs endeavoring to completely
eradicate tho pest from the state.
This is the most serious insect pest
OF the sweet potato, and is much
more serious in parts OF Florida.
