Agriculture is made up Of 80 pounds
of ground oats, 80 pounds Of mid
'llings or shipstuff, 80 pounds of
corn and 10 pounds Of tankage. An
other ration that has been found
satisfactory is composed Of 60
pounds Of middlings, 40 pounds of
corn and 10 pounds of tankage.
Good results may be obtained by
feeding tie SOW bran or middliugs
mash the n.glt before she is due to
farrow, according to Prof. MILFORD.
This serves as cooling feed.
Warm quarters are ESSENTIAL for
the newly born pigs, since large
number of them are liable to die if
born in quarters that are cold. Dur
ing narrowing time if the sow is rest
less the pigs may be removed and as
soon as the mother is quoted down,
returned to the pen.
For "a hours after narrowing the
sow should not be fed in order that
she may recover from her sickness.
She should have plenty Of water and
if the weather is cold this should be
warmed.
After "a hours she may be given
light feed from the ration fed her
before narrowing. The amount fed
can be gradually increased until at
the end Of the second or beginning
of the third week she is on full feed.
A caked udder may result if the an
imal is fed too heavily Immediately
after narrowing, according to Prof.
MILFORD. Four per cent Of the live
weight Of the sow is usually consid-
cred full feed, but this may vary
with the individual animal.

Clean Warm Quarters
Essential For Pigs

Clean quarters that are suffici-
emily warm is the first essential to
consider in preparing for the ar
rival Of spring pigs on the farm, ac-
cording to Prof. E. ]. MILFORD, Of
the Animal Husbandry Department
of the State College of Agriculture.
( After all refuse and trash have
been removed from the pen it ought
to be disinfected with sprinkling
of Stacked lime or if the weather is
sufficiently warm with cresote dip,
which may be made by placing Gre
sote in water in sufficient quantities
to make a milky-white solution. AS
soon as the pen has been properly
cleaned and disinfected the SOW,
which is about to farrow should be
placed in it in order to give her an
opportunity to become acquainted
with the quarters and the herds
man.
Since rs per cent Of the fetus is
developed during the last month of
pregnancy it is essential that the
SOW receive plenty Of feed that is
rich in protein. 1t is important, how
ever, that this feed should not be
one that will tend to fatten the ami

good results at the State College Of

Is This Not Americas
Most Serious Problem?

The Survey, journal printed in
New York, more especially for social
workers, is noted for it's radical
opinions and for it's defense of even
Bolshevists in our midst. Certainly
nobody Of education would think of
calling the Survey conservative.
And yet we read in flat journal a
letter quito evidently written by a
workingman-one who thinks even if
he does not think very straight, ac-
cording to educational standards,
denouncing the radical Survey as an
organ Of the exploits of labor. He
talks in a hall rambling manner of
cutting to the ground the thing that
he declares is the cause of all our
trouble-capital. He would totally
change the economic system upon
which present civilization rests. Of
course, without saying it. he is for
the Bolsheviki system. The mans
name is Butler, so nobody can sweep
him aside as "an ignorant for
eigner."
But even though he is not a for
eigner and even though he is un-
doubtedly ignorant or he wouldn't
believe as he does, he breathes the
sentiment that so many of our work.

Paducah Society Boosts
Better Stock Movement

Better stock through the use of
better sires was the principal sub
ject discussed at the semi annual
meeting Of the State Veterinary So
ciety which was recently held at
Paducah. The meeting was attend
ed by more than so McCracken
county farmers.
Wayland Rhoads, extension spe-
cialist in beef cattle production from
the State College of Agriculture, led
the discussion on the "Better Sires-
Better Stock Movement. The society
unanimously agreed that the move
ment should be given its support.
Among other speakers on the pro-
gram were DR.. W. w. Simmons, state
veterinarian, and DR.. Carl Fisher,
at Paducah.

diarrhea.

Precautions issued by Mr.. Chaplin
on the care of the brooder, state
that it should be cleaned often, the
stove or lamp carefully watched, and
in the case Of the lamp, the wick
trimmed every day. The brooding
process may be improved by provid-
ing a small runway for the chicks
to use after they have become old
enough and the weather permits.

Proper Brooding
Checks Many Ailments

Proper brooding and care Of the
chicks after they leave he incubator
are two Of the most important fac
tors in controlling white diarrhea
and such common ailments as "gaps"
in the young birds, according to A.
S. Chaplin, poultry extension spe-
cialist from the State College Of Ag-
riculture.
To begin with the brooder house
should be located on clean ground to
prevent "gaps" since this trouble Of
ten comes from allowing the chicks
to run on ground which has been
infected with previous broods. The
house should also be located for
convenience with reference to feed
ing, cleaning, shade and handling Of
the chicks. Before the newly Matched
chicks are placed in the brooder it is
Important to spray it with some
good commercial disinfectant, ac-
cording to Mr.. Chaplin.
Dry sand should be placed on the
floor of the house to the depth Of
about three-fourths of an inch to
take up the moisture Of the drop
pings and provide grit for the chicks.
A chaff covering of alfalfa or straw
makes a good scratch litter. Two
or three days before the incubator
matches the heater in the brooder
house may be started in order to
insure that the house will be warm
enough for the youngsters. Care
should also he taken to see that they
are not chilled in transferring them
from the incubator to the brooder
house. Proper temperature of the
house at all times is essential since
overheating or chilling Of the chicks
leads to diarrhea. The house must be
warm enough to prevent dampness,
since the chicks are liable to con-
tract intestinal infection by picking
up damp and musty straws, accord
ing to Mr.. Chaplin.
For 48 hours after they are hatch
ed the chicks should be kept warm
and quiet and not given any food.
After this length Of time they may |
be given buttermilk or sour skim
milk, which makes an excellent first
feed, according to the specialist.
In all cases Of disorder in the
young chicks the infected ones
should be placed by themselves and ,
in bad cases destroyed. "Gaps" may
be cured by placing the chicks in a
box with a cloth covering and rub
bing lime dust through the cloth. The
cure is affected by the chicks then
breathing the lime dust. Buttermilk
Or sour skim milk is good for the

Camp Taylor Site to be
Sold for Building Lots

About 1000 acres of land occu-
pied by Camp Taylor, near Louis
vile, KY, will be divided and
sold before June 80 in parcels with
the improvements included, the War
Department announces. The land has
originally cost the government more
than $1,000,O00 and the improve
ments nearly $S,OOO,OOO. Heretofore
the improvements on army camp
land to be sold have been treated as
salvage and not a part of the real
estate.

The habit of farmers wives al
lowing vegetables to waste in the
garden just because they are abund-
ant and cheap in the fall is a very
extravagant one. A little care with
them would serve to reduce the fam
lily grocery bill each month during
the winter and keep vegetables on
the table as well. If you have been
guilty of this during the past fall,
make up your mind never to be
again. Either can or dry them next
year.

LET GIRLS PUFF,

CONGRESSIONAL
Member of House Says 1t Is
Their Affair if They Want
to Smoke.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 17.-"There is
too much flying around among young
girls because mothers and fathers have
stopped watching over their children, -
says Mrs. Alice Robertson Of Oklahoma,
the woman congressman, affectionately
known as Miss Alice
She refuses to believe the world is be
coming bad, but opines young girls are
not being restrained enough.
You cannot legislate against these
/ things" she said 1--WE have too many
laws now. After a while we will be a
toothess race through getting all these
predigested laws regulating us-this anti
smoking bill is an example. We ought to
have to chew things more for ourselves.
LET MOTHER
WATCH OUT"
II don't go around much myself, and
all I know about girls smoking and
rolling down their stockings is what I
have been told. ! have seen some bath
ing suits that were too scanty but l
have thought Poor girl, she wouldn't be
Wearing it If her mother were looking
after her
The only way to correct these things
is for parents to look after their chill
dren, and for each one of us to look after
himself or herself The trouble today is
most OF us are too busy trying to look
after everybody else. We neglect to
look after ourselves.
There is one thing that IS very dan
gerous. That is Joy riding Girls should
not be permitted to go on JOY riding
parties unless they are properly chape-
roned.
LET THE
GIRLS SMOKE.
"If girls want 10 smoke, let them
smoke. 1t is their own affair If they
do it in public. just to attract attention,
let them do It if they want to attract
attention that way. Smoking is only a
matter of taste, and let every one look
after himself or herself on that
when l was a young girl nobody
thought anything Of our old negro cook
smoking a pipe. When l see girls smok-
ing today I think if they want TO follow
the example of our old negro cook, all
right.
Since Mr. johnson introduced his bill
prohibiting women from smoking in pub
Tic in Washington have received a great
posing it. One woman wrote me Con-
gress should put a stop to women smOk
ing in public. as only bad women did it.
| wrote her in reply if what she said
was true ! would vote against the bill
as it would be a good thing to be able
to tell bad women that way.
IL have even received letters asking me
to do something 10 stop girls from roll
ing down their stockings. If they want
to do it let them. I suppose they think
their knees are pretty.
The only pretty knees I ever saw
were babies. You know all babies have
pretty dimpled knees But when they
grow up-you know no grown person has
a good looking elbow. ! guess it is the
same with knees.
The trouble about this is the mothers
knees They don't bend their knees in
would not be rolling their stockings down
so much"
