parlor where she had spread a
lunch. pending our arrival, and
say folks, 1t was some lunch. We
rested until dinner, and after this
other hearty meal was over we
donned our aprons and went to
the picking sheds, where the first
of over 700 turkeys were awaiting
our capable hands. The work pro-
eeded merrily until six, when sup
per was announced. 1t was as nice
as dinner, only better.
After supper we again went t.
the picking sheds until about
1880 p. m, when quitting time
was announced and again lunch

thorwn in for entertainment.
About midnight we were all in
beds amply provided by a thought

WORK AGAINST HOG CHOLERA
EXTENDED TO OTHER STATES

The United States Department of
Agriculture this year extended its CO.
operative hig cholera control work to
South Dakota, Washington, New Mex
leo and West Virginia. making total
of "a states in which work is being
done in cooperation with state au-
thorities. Cooperation among the
different agencies is now at it's best,
and is therefore more effective than
ever.
The object of the work with the
various states is to prevent and con-
troll outbreaks of hog cholera, and to-
prevent the spread of the infection
and to reduce losses.
During the year, hog cholera has
been kept under control, but special
care must be taken in October, No
vember and December, when usually
there is an increase in its prevalence.
Farmers will save more hogs mad pre-
vent disastrous losses II they do not
delay reporting Immediately to the
state veterinarian. the county agricul-
tural agent, the representative of the
bureau of animal husbandry or local
veterinary practitioner any suspicious
cases of sickness among their hogs.
Anti-hog cholera serum is not a cure,
bue a preventive treatment. and
should be applied as soon as possible
when the disease appears in the herd
or in the neighborhood. The preven-
tive treatment is a good insurance
against losses from hog cholera.

DIFFICULTY IN TESTING
CANADA BLUEGRASS SEED

Canada bluegrass seed seems to be
extremely sensitive to a number of
condition that affect it's termination
and for that reason the United States
Department of Agricultural is trying
to develop a method for testing it
that will give uniform results. Up to
the present time bluegrass seed has
been giving seed dealers and state
analysts much trouble.
The department. in it's attempt to
determine the factors influencing the
termination of Canada bluegrass, has
found a great variation in the bthav-
ior of various samples. All samples
are found to require a daily alterna-
tion of temperatures for successful
termination. A temperature of 20
degrees c. for Is hours and 80 de-
grees for 6 hours is satisfactory.
Many samples give a distinctly high
er termination when exposure to
light is added to the above tempera-
The Mt. Sterling advocate., 1922-10-05

ture schedule. However, it is i'm
portant that the temperature sched-
ule be not sacrificed in obtaining the
light exposure.
Some samples of Canada bluegrass
do not germinate completely even
with the above conditions satisfied.
Work in progress is expected to de-
termine all the factors necessary to
make a dependable termination test
of Canada bluegrass possible.
