SHOCKED CORN GOOD sILAGE
RefiIIing SiIo With Surplus Even In
Middle of Winter Is Most Eco
nomicaI Practice.

"Corn cut at the proper time and
put into the shock can be made into
good silage, even in the middle of the
winter" says Alvin Kezer of the agron-
Omy department Of the Colorado
Agricultural college. "Of course, such
silage will not be as palatable as when
sliced early and there will be more
mechanical waste Of leaves and other
parts Of the corn plant because the
shocked corn had been stored for part
of the winter, either in the shock or In
stacks. But if this dry fodder is run
through silage cutter and the proper
amount of water run in with it, it will
make good silage and a much more
palatable feed than the dry fodder,
which will be eaten by the stock with
less waste.
"Sometimes, shocking the surplus
corn after the silos are filed and re-
filling from the shocked coin is a very
economical practice, a practice worth
remembering, especially when the
capacity of the silos is not great
enough to take care of the entire crop.
It is good way Of improving valu-
able feed"

VERMIN CARRY HOG DISEASES
Feed Than Clean One, According
to Many Experiments.

A hog affected with lice can't make
as profitable use of his feed as one
that is free from this pest. No sue
cessful hog man will dispute this
statement; yet, judging from the con-
dition of some farmers hogs, it Id
doubtful whether all realize that it
really costs money to feed lice. How
ever, feeding experiments have been
conducted from time to time which
show plainly that a lousy hog con-
sumes more feed per pound of gain
than a clean hog. This loss Of feed,
however, is not the only reason for
keeping hogs free from lice. Lice are
also disease carriers. They will carry
infection from one hog to another and
that, perhaps, is as strong reason for
holding lice In check as any other.

their supports, the walls adjoining,
and the nests if they are infested.
This method of application is effec-
tive for the first treatment also If
the houses are not heavily infested.
Poultry should be kept out of the
treated buildings until the material
is well dried into the wood.
Using Pure Kerosene.
Pure kerosene and kerosene emul.
sion in double the strength ordinarily
applied to plants will destroy all
mites hit,-but these substances have
not body enough to destroy those
mites which are in more protected
situations, and several applications at
ten-day intervals are needed to de-
stroy all the mites.
Arsenical dip, such as is used to
destroy cattle ticks, has been found
fairly satisfactory for use against
chicken mites. Several applications
are required to eradicate the mites
from poultry houses.

The great puzzle has been why did
Nature create so many drOnes among
bees, when but one ever served def
mite purpose in hive. Huber, famous
bee student. has answered 1t by de-
claring that males must be numerous
so that the queen in her bridal flight
will have the best of chances to meet
one. Were there but two or three to
hive they might miss the departure
of their queen altogether, or else fail
to find her on her flight. Her stay in

those pertaining to Ti!'rt:Rn mythology

Of these "Todgam," the f1ve-skull

The rise of Kansas was IN a way
meteoric. He has been going along fight
ing lot of second-raters and occa-
sionally meeting good man. While he
didn't make a great reputation. he was
known by all the f1stic fraternity as no
easy customer. Last year Pinkney

bout was a short one. neither doing the
other lot of damage. AS conse-
Quence Richie Mitchell. who saw the

So after he was knocked out by Benny
Leonard Richie decided to take 1t easy
for while and pick up some soft

in which the picking did not prove to be
down to Buffalo to breeze through
twelve rounds with Rocky Kansas.
Richie lasted only few minutes. In "A

Now the question is: Is Mitchell
