FLUCTUATION IN

New Orleans, May 22.--rhc trend of
prices III the cotton market this week
was anything but decided and fuctua-
tlons were narrow, the range for the
week being only ~ to 80 points. On
the close prices were ID points down
to nine points UP, compared with the
close Of the preceding week. July
traded as high as 1911, fell off to l2. lG
and closed at 1926. in the spot de-

the net results, closing at 11.75. A year
ago middling closed at 1925.
The even balance of the trading fac

narrow price changes. The weather
over the belt was at once favorable
and unfavorable, there were favorable
and unfavorable reports in foreign
news and the same thing might be
said about reports from textile cen

a total of approximately $4,000 OOC
to between $50,OOO,OO0 and 10000 900
Slashing Of appropriations is called

MANURE is BEST FERTILIZER
Contains Plenty of Humus and All
Other Necessary Plant Foods
Add Acid Phosphate.

The home gardener who can get a
load of well-rotted stable manure need
not worry about fertilizer, anyone who
has ever done any gardening is we'll
aware.
Manure contains humus in plenty
and all the necessary plant materials,
as well as bacteria which put these
materials into the most disable shape
for crops To get the full benefit of
stable manure however, it should be
balanced with acid phosphate, which
is comparatively inexpensive, garden
ers at the Iowa state college of agri-
culture say.
An application of one ton of stable
manure, which is about an average
two-hOrse load, is not too much for
garden 80 by 60 feet, and so pounds
of acid phosphate may be used with it.
Fresh stable manure should not be
applied in the spring. It contains too
much readily available nitrogen and
may cause in some plants a growth

While we usually figure the profits
and losses in raising hogs from the
: time of weaving to marketing, there
is chance to make some difference
in the cost of production up to the
time the pigs are taken from the SOW.
Cholera causes a greater financial
loss than any other disease, but about
ten times as many pigs are lost in the
first two months after narrowing than
are lost from cholera. Hog cholera
gets into the herd when each pig rep
resents a larger investment than is the
case with the sucking pig.
1t may be fair to ask the question
what is a fair-sZed litter for a. SOW to
wean? l have heard of men who
weaned on the average eight or nine
pigs per SOW. We have all, no doubt.

usually are not told in d ''nOnbrag-

such records. The man who raises

UTILIZATION OF FARM LAND
Value of Place Depends Upon What
Proportion Of Total Area Can
Be Made Productive.

Effective utilization of farm land
means a high percentage of income
producing area, say specialists of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. The value of a farm depends
upon what proportion of its total area
is productive. Compare a farm of 100
acres at 5000 an acre, 95 acres being
in shape to yield available products,
with another farm of the same acre
age at $3.50 an acre. but with only IS
productive acres. If all the other fea-
tunes of the two farms are similar,
the former should be the most profit
able because its profit-producing land
costs but $120 an acre against $3.50 IN

GRIT SUPPLY IS ESSENTIAL
Material Takes Place of Teeth in Pre-.
pairing Fowls Food for Fur
Their Digestion.

Grit is essential to the health Of
fowls and to economy in feeding. Grit
takes the place of teeth in preparing
the feed for further digestion and is
required for the proper preparation
of feed in the gizzard. When the feed
is not properly taken care of in this
organ, ain ,Rdue' strain is thrown on
the fowls system, often resulting in
disease and also allowing much of the

Variety Of Fowls Should Regulate
Height of Fence.

most Of the other breeds can be kept
In by a siX-foot fence. Hamburgs and
Leghorns may be kept in the yards by
clipping the flight feathers on one
wing. Gates should be provided in
order to permit access from one yard
to the next.
If convenient, it is we'll to have dou-
bic yards, for then one may rotate
green crops. The yards may be sown
to oats, wheat, or rye, and while the
fowls are using one yard the green
feed in the other can be getting a
fresh start.
When the yards are to be on only
one side OF the house, they should be
on the south side in order that the
fowls may have the benefit of the first
dry ground in early spring. 1t not in
frequently happens that in localities
where snow is abundant the ground
on the south side is dry many days
before that on the north side
If the yards are to be in permanent
sod and are to furnish green feed for
the fowls, 20 to so square feet should
be allowed for each bird poultry spe-
cialists in the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture say. If part Of
the green feed is to be otherwise pro-
vided for, and the yards used mainly
for exercise grounds, 80 to 40 square
feet per bird will be sufficient.
Shade Of some kind should be pro-
vided and this can often be adj
vantageously furnished by planting
fruit trees (such as pears, plums, cher
ries, and apples) in the yard.
