Certain Crops Have Ceased to
 Be Profitable.

(P.epared by the United States Department
 of Agricultural
 Many farmers, before buying a farm, have saved themselves future losses by looking we'll into the matter of probable change in the type of farming practiced in the region they have under consideration. Certain crops may cease to be profitable owing to the development of other regions more favOrably situated for their pro- duction and marketing. Some crops may have to be abandoned because Of disease, insect pests or other causes. The United States Department of Ag- rlculture suggests the test question :: Is the farm selected adapted to such possible changes?
 For instance, the farm selected may now be growing beans, potatoes, corn, t1ts, clover and hay, with the pros
The St. Johns herald., 1922-01-05
FARM VALUES HURT BY CHANGES

pect that beans and potatoes will soon cease to be profitable The question then arises-can some other crop or crops be found to replace them? Very few regions have a wide range of crops, especially In general farming, and adaptability to new crops Is a very important consideration.
 Can the beef-cattle farm be made over into a dairy farm? Can the dairy farm be made into a sheep farm ? Can the fruit farm be made into a hay, grain or live stock farm? In many instances it will be found that the farm in question demands a type of farming that cannot be easily changed to meet the needs of chang ing conditions.
 When making a selection, look back and follow the local economic changes that have occurred in the last 30 years, and then judge for yourself whether the farm you have under con- slderatiOn has the adaptability neceS- sary for meeting the changes that are bound to come in the future.

ARTIFICIAL LIGHTS FOR FOWLS
 INCREASE PRODUCTION OF EGGS

PreparSd by the United States Department
 of Agriculture)
 Artificial lights properly operated Elll materially increase the winter egg production of bullets, the United States Department of Agriculture believes. The use of lights may also slightly in- crease the yearly egg production of individual hens, though not to any marked extent. The opinion of the de- partment's poultry division is fully cor roborated by many of the state expert ment stations, particularly those in California, Indiana, Kansas, Washing ton, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, New York and New Jersey. County agents working in New York and New Jersey report considerable activity in this project, in which the Department of Agriculture usually CO., operates with the state agricultural college through the county agent.
 Lighting as a Feeding Measure.
 It should be we'll understood that ar tihcial lighting is intended primarily as a means of getting the hens to feed longer than they otherwise would dur ing the short days of fall and winter. An extra feeding of scratch grain should be provided, so that the flock Is induced to eat not only enough for maintenance but an amount cOmpar- able to what is eaten in the more ac- tive laying seasons.
 Lights are used soon after Septem- Der in New Jersey, but in most local Ities they are started November 1 and
The St. Johns herald., 1922-01-05

hens may produce well for short time and then begin to mOult. If the laying passes 60 per cent, or. in the opinion of some poultry authorities, 50 per cent, there Is danger of mOulting and consequent cessation of laying. In the spring the lights should never be stopped abruptly. The length of time they are run should be shortened about ten minutes a day until they can be entirely abandoned.
 Other PeInts With Llahts.
 Fresh water should be given the flock the first thing in the morning when the lights are turned On. Birds of different ages should not be housed together or lighted in the same way. They should be properly graded and fiocked according to age. Lighting makes 1t possible to carry February matched bullets through the first fall and winter producing period with less moulting. Yearlings and tw0-gear-old hens are better if started with ardhs cial lights in January. and the method Is not as profitable as with bullets. It Is considered a questionable practice to turn lights on culled hens to stimu- late egg production. In New Jersey, where the largest amount of work has been done with artificial lighting, 1t is thought better to sell the culls and buy good birds.
 Artificial lights should be suspended from the ceiling so that the entire floor space Is lighted If the roasting closet
The St. Johns herald., 1922-01-05

partition casts a shadow on the roosts, the chickens will go to sleep in the shadow.
 Results in New Jersey show that in general the use of lights nearly doubles production during the period of high prices of eggs and greatly increases the usual net return over the cost of lights and feed in the lighted pens. The lighted flock showed better health than the unlighted ones, and the subsequent laying was as good among the birds which had had winter lights as with any of the birds.
 A record was kept of fl New Jersey flocks for five months. The birds aver aged 3,8O2 in number and laid 280,511 eggs altogether This was a fl per cent production, whereas a 2 per cent production was usual before the experi- ment. This meant. an increase of 127,- 15S eggs.
 An experiment was made at the agrI- cultural experiment station, New Brunswick, N. J., in which 600 unlight- ed bullets made a profit of $3.20 per bird. but 800 lighted birds cleared $5.0T each. The lights were turned on in the morning. Where an evening lunch was given to 100 bullets the profit per bird was $5.48. The fuel and operating cost for HOO birds was A cents per bird. An increase of a single egg per bird pays this cost.

continued to April 1 Conditions vary In different states. What may be good practice in New Jersey may not work in Kansas. In the latter state cleo tricity Is considered the only practi- cable kind of light, while in other states kerosene lamps and gasoline mantles are sometimes used. Electric ity is the most practical method to use wherever it Is available.
 How to Use Artificial Light.
 The total daylight, real and artifl- cIal, should be about fourteen hours. There are three ways of increasing the apparent length of the day-by turning on lights very early in the morning. or by keeping them going several hours at night, or by using them both morning and night. While all three methods have given good re- suits, the first is usually found most convenient, because the lights merge into daylight and no i'll effects result if they gre not turned off promptly.
 In using the second method some dimm.ng device is needed with electric lights to lower the illumination gradu- ally. The hens do not get to their roOsts if the light is suddenly extin- guished. Gasoline and kerosene lamps have to be turned down.
 Artificial lighting can be abused, witt disastrous effects on the flock. If they are run for too long day, the

In the continuous wave" train it
should be noted that the amplitude IS
constant for each successive wave,
while in the case of the "damped" or
discontinuous wave train the ampll-
tude of each successive wave has de-
creased.
The decrease in amplitude of sue
cessive waves in the wave train of
damped oscillations is shown at CD.
If the decrease is large, the wave
train is said to be highly damped
and if this damping is excessive, 1t
may cause serious interference with
other radio stations.
The wave length may be expressed
as the distance between the points of
mum. In the upper diagram the wave

energy is at maximum or 2 mini
