pick the best layers by their late
moulting. During September these
hens will probably moult, though
some may lay throughout this
month and not moult until October.
They should be watched closely and
the most persistent layers should be
marked for next years brooding
pen. saws Mrs, Wells At the same
time continue culling out all pullets
showing lack of proper development.
This may be caused by some injury
during growth or it may be that
they were Matched from eggs Of weak
vitality and will never make strong
hens. In any case, they can not be
depended upon to make good layers
and should be sold or eaten.
The best growing cockerels that
have been saved through the sum-
mer should be carefully examined
at this time in order that the finest
may be kept for the brooding pen.
These birds should show good quail
ties of their breed, shape, color, size
and especially strong vitality and
growth. 1t is only by these points
that one can expect to get the best
male birds for the brooding pen if
trap nests are not used. Only by
culling for development and body
capacity in young stock can we hope
to increase egg production of our
future flocks.
During these months the fairs win
he on and every poultry breeder
should note how his best birds meas
ure up with those of their neighbors
and other breeders of purebred
stock. If you have purebreds do
not fail to show at your local fairs,
and if sure you have something ex-
ira good, send TO the bigger fairs
Attend the fairs and study the ex-
hibits, especially the birds of your
breed that carry off the prizes you
did not get. This is the only way to
know what your flock lacks in stan
dard qualities.

Things To Do on the Farm in Sep
j.. TENDER.
], September, the harvest month, is
here once again. James Whitcomb
Riley pictures it in "When the Frost
is on the Pumpkin and the Fodder is
in the Shock" as a season of good
cheer and neighborliness. During
this month much of the fruits Of the
years work will be put away; but
while it is a month Of harvest in
modern times, just as it was in the
earlier days, it also a month of many
| farm activities and is coming to be
more and more month of planting
as WELL. The following timely re-
minders Of things to do on the farm
this month by specialists of the Di-
vision of Extension should be Of
interest to our farmer readers:
In the Fields--Make the soil rich
for tobacco. Lime enough land to
grow enough clover to feed enough
cattle to make enough manure to
keep the soil rich. Use only surplus
labor on tobacco. Grow the crop in
proper rotation. Try this one:
First year, corn and tobacco in the
same field; second year, wheat
harvested, land lined, prepared and
sowed to barley and red clover and
orchard grass; third year, barley,
red clover and grass; fourth year,
clover and grass; fifth year, grass.
If the land can not be lined, use
rye after corn and tobacco and turn
it under and plant soybeans the Sec
ond year.
Clubs-The county agents appreci-
ate club members who complete their
work If you have not made the best
surcess, submit report anyway.
Your club will not get full credit
for its work if any member fails
to send in his or her record book.
Attend the county club contest with
the best exhibit you can select. The
owner will be benefited by exhibit
ing pigs, calves, poultry or canned
goods and will also help others by
showing what can be done.
Feeding Hints-Fill silo; pack
silage we'll. Save all hay possible.
Turn sheep on stubble fields for a
few days. Put brood sow on soy
beans or alfalfa and a little grain.
Wean the colts. Make ready for fall
narrowing. Look carefully after the
cows at calving time. Separate them
from the herd and provide box stalls
for calving. Look out for milk
fever.
Odd Jobs-Have tractor in shape
to fill silo. Dig vegetable storage
cellar. Put cider press in order and
make winter vinegar.
Marketing-Market fat hogs and
"green cattle" Watch the market
closely from day to day. Send fat
cows that are poor producers to
market.
Sweet Potato Hints-Clean out the
sweet potato storage house thor
oughly and spray the interior with
solution of five pounds Of blue
stone dissolved in so gallons of
water. This tends to prevent the
spread of black rot in storage
In the Kitchen-Can a good sup
ply of fried chicken for the winter.
Use fall frys for canning instead of
spring frys because the spring frys
bring better price.

house out of stray pieces of old
lumber as to build up good herd

There IS some important work
with poultry to be done during Sep
TENDER and October, says Mrs. Kate
VI. Wolls, poultry specialist, Divis-
ion Of Extension The feeding of
the flock should have been kept up
during the winter so that the hens
did not stop laying and go into

purpose, and they do not recognize
hardship when they meet IL.
They have had their opportunity to
withdraw with honor from the field Of
famine and desolation. They have re-
fused to leave, because they know that
their departure would mean death for
tens Of thousands Of women and chill
dren whom their efforts have kept
alive and whom they are determined
to save for better future.

is provided" Refugees arriving from

thousand starving between Kars and

Above all towers the mute appeal Of
the more than 100000 little children,
orphaned, homeless, whom these Amer
lean relief workers have saved and
whom we here at home must sustain
not only through the winter and
spring, but through the summer and
autumn as well. If we do not provide,
they perish And with them dies the
hope of New Near East.
