ALFALFA CROP OF MANY USES
Leads as Forage; Unsurpassed as
Hay; Has High Carrying
Capacity as Pasture.

No forage crop cultivated in the
United States Is used successfully In
SO many ways as alfalfa. 1t is more
nearly perfect forage than any other
crop grown in this country. IL Is un-
surpassed as hay for general feeding
and has high carrying capacity as
pasture. With proper handling good
results can be obtained with Il as a
solling crop. II makes excellent
silage and when ground into meal Is
a good and easily handled feed. Al
falfa is so highly regarded as forage
that some persons have attempted to
create demand for it as human food.
Enthusiasts have tried TO show that
1t has medicinal value. However II
cannot compete as food with other
staple crops and, so far as known, 1t
has no special medicinal properties.
Alfalfa is not only valuable as a
forage crop, but also as soil Inn
proven. Il is not well adapted to
short rotations, but the cropping plan

to handle the crop conyenIsrtIy

year promise to be unusually interest
by the United States Department OF
Agriculture from many sources. In
practically all parts OF the country ex.
cellent livestock exhibits are to be at.
tractiye features OF fairs. The atten-
tlon which breeders and farmers have
been giving TO good livestock. combined
with good feed and care, have resulted
In some exceptionally well-bred and
well-fitted animals.
In encouraging farmers to take ad.
vantage OF the opportunities which
fairs and livestock exhibits give for
observing improved livestock and poul.
try the Department OF Agriculture
places emphasis on the following
points: Livestock displays afford an
opportunity to study breeds and types
and To see large number Of good ami
mails. In the case Of meat animals the
size, conformation, and uniformity are
worthy Of special study In view Of in.
creaslng tendency TO raise purebred
and high grade stock as market ami
mails as well as for breeding.
Farmers attending livestock displays
obtain useful information by meeting
others who are interested In superior
breeding and feeding methods. Besides
the Ideas exchanged and information
gained, new enLlusiasm for the work
Is common result. Animals and poul.
try may be purchased at most fairs,
though as a rule It Is more satisfactory
for a farmer to purchase animals at
the home OF the breeder than TO buy
fitted animals at fairs. Animals that
have been prepared for exhibition usu.
ally are priced higher than untitled
ones OF similar quality and breeding.

MEANING OF THE WORD VEAL
Departments Of Agriculture Frequent.
" Called Upon to Decide Be-
tween Veal and Beef.

There seems to be marked varia.
tion OF opinion as to what is meant
by the word veal Ordinarily, when
one hears the word uttered. he thinks
OF the carcass or meat OF young
bovine. In most cases this cOncep.
tion of the meaning OF the word veal
is sufficient and II can be dismissed
from the mind without further con.
sideration; but, when one Is called
upon to state just what constitutes
veal, there may be some difficulty ex.
perienced in determining when bo
vine carcass is OF is not to be re,
garded as veal.
Departments Of agriculture are
sometimes called upon TO decide
whether or not rather heavy car
cRss should be classified as veal or
beef and the decision conforms TO the
conclusion Of authorities on the sub.
ject, which is as follows.
Calf carcasses weighing less than
300 pounds, with comparatively light
colored, ine-gralned lesh. are classE
fed as veal

POOR DRIVERS
WASTE POWER
Much Of the Difficulty in Hill
Climbing in High Gear May
Be Averted.
GIVE CAR SPEED At START
Rough Places to Be Avoided, Since Ev.
cry Bounce OF the Wheels Means
Certain Loss Of Momentum
Don't Cut Curves.

Much of the difficulty In hill climb
ing in high gear is due to unnecessary
wasting of power by incompetent driv-
Ing. Many a driver "kills" his engine
on a long grade simply because he
does not give the car enough speed
at the bottom and thus encourages
overheating by denying the engine the
advantage of the additional draft OF
cool air which is available at higher
car speeds. Frequently this type OF
hill does not appear particularly steep,
and the consequence Is the driver does
not feed enough gas. allowing the en-
gine to run too slow, to struggle, and
eventually overhead.
A source OF lost power in hill climb
ing which Is too often overlooked is
the bouncing OF rear wheels over n
rough road. Every bounce of a wheel
that Is driving means loss Of momen-
tum due to free mOmentary spinning.
The solution TO this Is to give atten-
tion 10 avoiding the holes In the road
or feeding less gas for an instant while
riding over an unavoidable rough
place.
A lot OF drivers Imagine they are
gaining momentum by rushing over
the rough places, but they would ac-
compllsh more by taking II easier. Tn
less the throttle is closed momentarily
while the wheels are going over
very rough spot with the car In
ssecond gear the machine will ofttimes
come almost to a standstill.
The practice of cutting curves when
there Is no danger in doing so has led
to the habit Of taking the short cut
around curves when hill climbing.
This accounts for the lost power"
Of many II motor because the grade Of
the inner side OF the curve is always
greater than that OF the outer side.
The driver who In hill climbing keeps
10 the outer edge OF curyes-provid-
ed they are not dangerous-giyes his
Dobbln used to enjoy when his owner
helped him up hills by criss-crossing
from one side OF the roac to the other.
In hill climbing an apparently in
consequential thing will often mark
the difference between making II In
"high" or resorting to second" Keep
ing on the crown of the road Is just
one OF these determining factors. The
driver who keeps getting OF into the
gutter or ditch unnecessarily increases
the read grade when he again tries TO
steer upon the crown. In hill climb
Ing every little thing counts. The
point Is to know what these points are.

MISTAKE WITH BEEF CATTLE
Many Producers Handle Cows in Same
Manner as high-Produeing
Dairy Animals.

The function of beef cattle is to
convert cheap roughage into a prod
uct that can be utilized by man. Many
men entering the business of beef pro-
duction make the vital mistake OF
handling their beef cows in the same
manner that high-prOduclng dairy
herd is managed, and, because they
fail to realize profit, condemn the
beef business generally. The same
thing would happen, however, to the
dairy business IL dairy herds were sub
!ected to the conditions necessary for
profitable beef production. The only
difference is that few dairy herds are
ever placed under these conditions.
In managing herd of beef cattle,
the overhead expense in the form Of
labor equipment and concentrated
feeds must be kept at a minimum II a
substantial profit is to be realized.

SURPRISE CONTESTS
ARE VERY EFFECTIVE
Remarkably Good Results Shown
in Western Cities.
Milk Dealer DisIikes to Be Surprised
With Dirty Product on His Wagon.
Especially When Results
Are Published.

CPreparsd By the United States Departmep,
Of Agriculture.D
Surprise milk contests-contests in
which the milk sold by various deal
ers In a city is compared by taking
samples occasionally without warning
have been very effective In improving
the milk supply OF many cities. Con-
tests of this kind carried out with the
assistance Of the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture have shown re-
markable results in a number OF west.
ern cities. The bacterial counts and
the total milk scores for the cities were
made up from the results Of tests Of
samples from each OF the delivery sys-
tens.
In Long Beach, Calf, the average
bacterial count In the first contest was
11S,23S; In the last contest II was
down to II ,S23. In the first the aver
age score Of the milk sold there was
71.J6. and in the last it was up to 9O67.
The milk sold in Riverside, Calf, Inn
proved in bacterial count from 1O1 800
to $500, and rose in score from S2g3
to 1858. Los Angeles dealers, as a
result Of these surprise contests, made
great Improvement in the quality OF
the milk supply, bringing down the
count from s4,169 to 1890 and rails
ing the score from 5000 to 91.65. The
figures Of Portland, Ore, changed from
49, ,49O TO 1870, and from 1919 to
92.52. The number of bacteria In a
cubic centimeter of Seattle milk was
brought from 64,124 down to 3l,297,
and the score was lifted from $3.50 to
1924.
A milk dealer does not like to be sur
prised with dirty milk on his wagons,
especially when the results Of the tests
are to be published In the local papers.
When his score goes up he finds the
number Of his customers going up;
when the bacterial count increases he
finds an increase in the number of ex-
customers.

TO DESTROY CANADA THISTLE
First Step in Eradication Is to Pre-
vent Seed Development--Disk
in Early Fall.

The Canada thistle, also known as
the cursed thistle, is one of the worst
weed pests. 1t spreads by its root sys.
tens as well as by seed. Its eradica-
ton entails a large amount oil work.
The first step in eradication, say
university farm men, is to prevent
seed development. After the grain
has been cut the infested land should
be plowed deep enough to bring the
roots Of the thistle to the surface.

early fall will prevent the growth of

SILAGE CROP is IMPORTANT

Much Growth and Feed Value
Best Time for Corn.

The proper stage at which to har-
vest the silage crop is an important
question. Cutting toe green sacrifices
too much growth and feed value and
makes. acid sllage; cutting too late
causes poor packing and spoilage. A
good rule in harvesting Indian corn
for silage is to cut just before the ker-
mel glazes, and In the case of Dent
