BARBERRY ERADICATION
SUCCESSFUL

With the federal governments 1922
campaign for the eradication of the
common barberry bush in North Da-
kota now nearing it's completion,
George G. Mayoue, state leader of the
United States department of agricul-
ture forces announces that 1000
bushes have been removed this
season. The farm to farm survey Of
ii counties in the central part of the
state was finished during the major
offensive from July to October.
The national government is fighting
the common barberry as means Of
combating black steam rust which
damaged North Dakota's grain crops
to the extent of $7O.OOO,OOO in the
three year period, 1919.21. Since the
campaign started in this state approxi-
mately 10000 bushes have ben eradi-
Gated in search that extended over
every city, town and farm in the
eastern half of the state.
Every bush that has been found by
the government scouts has been ac-
counted for as destroyed, Mr.. Mayoue
reported.

n, D. WEED CLASSIFICATION
SHOWS MANY new WEEDS

Sow thistle is regarded as the most
serious problem at the present time.
When once established it occupies the
ground completely, is difficult to eradi-
cate and has possibilities of spreading
which are unequalled by any other of
our weeds. Quack grass is similar
plant, but its seeds are not readily
wind blown. If it is entirely similar
to sow thistle with respect to spread
ing by roots, we should have to rate
it below SOW thistle, although it now
occupies more ground in the state and
thus at present. is causing more
trouble.
Canada thistle is much like sow
thistle as to both seeds and roots, but
is much more priclSly. Here is yet
another point to consider. Field bind
weed is rather new to the state but its
behavior where now established and
it's history in other regions indicate
that it might become one of our most
troublesome weeds.
Some ANIMALS such rs wild oats and
mustards are regarded by many people
as our worst seeds. Probably they
cause the greatest loss at the present
time because of their wide distribu-
ton, but they cannot continue to in
crease to the extent that some of the
perennials can.
Our principal weeds have been in.
troduced from Europe and Asia. Some
of the native plants are decidedly
weedy, but as rule they are not SO
persistent. Some are pasture weeds
not eaten by stock and increasing as
the grass is weakened or killed by
pasturng. Many are plants of no ap
parent value, but just how many Of
them should be included in list OF
weeds is difficult to say. Several
introduced plants have been found
only few times and may never be
come common enough to justify keep
ing them on the list.

STANDARDIZED FOWLS BEST
EGG Production Is Greatly Increased
by Using Improved cocLereis
on MonQreI Hens.

Standardized hens lay more eggs
than mongrels. The ability to lay q
good many eggs is All inherited quail
lty. Many standardized poultry
breeders have long realized the i'm.
portance of high egg production and
have selected their stock for improve
ment. One thousand standardized
pullets at the Connecticut egg-laying
contest produced, on an average, 162
eggs each, while at New Jersey the
record was 161 eggs for each pullet.
Flocks Of mongrels usually produce
from about rs to 80 eggs per hen.
The Kansas State Agricultural col.
lege completed an interesting breed.
Ing experiment recently. Common
mongrel hens were bred. to standard.
bred males from good laying stock.
The increase in the production Of
the offspring as compared to that Of
the mothers was phenomenal. The
mongrel hens In one pen produced
1O4 eggs each in year. Their daugh-
ters, from standardized Barred
Rock male produced 1874 eggs. The
second generation produced 165 eggs
and the third, POI. With single comb
White Leghorn cockerels and mongrel
hens, the results were even more spec
tacular. The egg production was in
creased from "a to 1913 eggs for each
hen in just three years.
A flock of uniform size. type, and
color always looks better than a flock
of mongrels. Owners take more pride

LIMBERNECK is INCuRABLE
no Cure Known for Paralysis OF
Muscles In Necks Of Fowls
Decayed Flesh One Cause.

Limberneck, which is q symptom,
rather than disease, is a paralysis
Of the muscles in the necks of the
birds which often results from eating
decayed flesh. 1t is form of poison
Ing that also may be caused by eat
ing arsenate of lead and other poisons
found on the farm. No cure Is known
for the trouble, the chief control of
1t being prevention. Special care
should be taken to see that all dead
chicks and animals are buried or
burned to prevent the spread Of the
trouble,

HOGS WILL EAT ALFALFA HAY
Several Experiment Stations Have
Tested 1t and Found It to Be
Most Excellent Feed.

Hogs will eat limited amount of al.
falfa hay after becoming used to it.
Several state agricultural experiment
stations have tested this out. In al
most every case the addition of alfalfa
to a grain ration reduced the cost Of
gains and improved the condition Of
the hogs. At one station the best ra.
tion found for fattening hogs was
corn and alfalfa In the ratio of nine
to one. Alfalfa is an ideal feed for
brood sows, and there is less trouble
with hog diseases when it is fed lib.
orally.

For shipping live poultry to market

desirable. us these crates provide for
ventilation. Overcrowding is to be
avoided, and If large crates are used
they should have partitions to prevent
the birds from being thrown together

WAR wAeED ON PRAIRIE DOGS.

The passing of the prairie dog is
phrase which, in very few months
will apply to several Of our counties
west Of the Missouri river" says
R. Scott Zimmerman, biologist in
charge of the rodent determination
work now being conducted in North
Dakota by the United States bureau Of
biological survey in cooperation with
the 'eXtention division of the North
Dakota Agricultural College.
During August a survey was made
Of the number of infested acres in
Mercer, Dunn, Oliver, Morton, Grant,
and Sioux counties. The general i'm
preston has been that great number
of infested acres lay in this section
of the state, but upon careful inspec-
tion it was definitely learned that the
persistent efforts of the farmers in
cooperation with the county agents
have been making a very vivid impress
sion on the prairie dog population.
Mercer, Grant and Hettinger coun-
ties will have written the passing Of
the prairie dog in the annals Of their
history IN another season. A few
scattered towns in Grant and Mercer
counties will be thoroughly treated
and rechecked this fall. Hcttinger
county has already made fine show
ing in the determination work.

IMPROVING SOIL

even when the ground is hard and
frozen, and our efforts should be d.
rected to aiding natural agencies. The
greatest good can be accomplished by
improving the soil and preparing 1t
for growing bumper crops Of potatoes,
cabbage, tomatoes, beans, beets and
other vegetables next season. says the
United States Department of Agrieul-
ture.
Crop to Improve Soil.
Most of our garden crops have ma
tured and been cleaned off the land. In
many parts of the country 1t is too
late to plant anything IN this vacant
land, except rye, barley or some other
crop to improve the soil. Some of
the most successful gardeners follow
the practice of sowing rye on every
foot of garden soil that becomes avail
able. The roots of the rye spread
tnrOugn the SOIL ana PICK up every
choice bit Of plant food they can find.
Next spring when the ground Is spaded
or plowed these same roots form q net
work of fibrous material which quick
ly decays and forms new plant food
for the garden crops to feed upon.
Don't let 1t get more than two or three
inches high next spring before it is
turned under. Other crops will give
the same results.
Frost Breaks Up Heavy Soils.
Spading or plowing clay soils in the
autumn and leaving them lying in a
rough state over winter is also good
practice. Heavy soils are broken up
by the action of frost. but care should
be taken that they do not wash away
Sandy and all light soils are liable ia
wash or blow away during the winter

that the Columbia promises to be one

dant to produce lambs ready for

According to Reports Of Automobile

The cost of keeping up American

was 81 for every man, woman and

auto license fees. So reports the ma

It is equivalent to cent and a

Cleanliness in milking should be ex.
