is also dependent on the operator and
if a high pressure is not obtainable, a
spray rod must be used.

CONSERVATION WORK
IN FLOODED AREAS

When the levees Of the Mississippi
broke some weeks ago Commissioner
M. L. Alexander of the Department OF
Conservation placed all the available
resources OF his department at the
disposal Of the distressed people OF the
flooded areas. Some time before the
river reached its highest stage, and be-
fore there had been a break, Mr.. Alex.
ander ordered the fleet Of the depart.
ment to report at strategic points along
the rivers to be READY for an instant
call of the Governor or of other com.
petent authority. The foresight and
wisdom of this move was amply
proved by the result. All the availa
Bile craft and employees of the depart.
ment were placed at the disposal OF
the Governor, and both men and boats
were held in readiness to respond in.
stantly to orders.
It was a matter of cOngratulation to
Commissioner Alexander that local of.
dcials and the people generally CO
operated heartily with the department
In its work of rescuing the distressed
people and protecting the larger game
from rapacious hunters. Three weeks
before the break at Ferriday, Col. W.
s. Holmes, superintendent of the game
division, went to North Louisiana to
prevent the slaughter of deer and
other wild game, which in periods Of
high watsr seek refuge on the ridges
end became easy victims Of conscious
less hunters. Col. Holmes placed
agents at threatened points and these
agents saved many deer fleeing in ter
cor from the flood. A number Of men
we're jailed for killing the fugitive ami.
mails, but the lawlessness was soon
checked. The sheriffs Of the parishes
affected by the Ferriday assisted Col.
Holmes and his force by all means in
their power, and the sportsmen Of tho
section organized to assist the work
Of the department. While the work in
North Louisiana was well under way,
The situation became critical in Pla.
1uemines and st. Bernard parishes and
forces of the department were sent to
those parishes to save the deer driven
rom the lowlands and to render every
assistance possible to the distressed
eoople.

Grain In Medium Amount, Fresh Wa.
ter and Pasture Are Necessary for
Success With Calves.
feed part clover and part alfalfa for
few days. Gradually reduce the
amount Of clover and at the same time
increase the alfalfa.
3. Do not 0verfeed the calf. Feed as
much grain as 1t will clean up in 80
minutes and wish 1t had just q little
more. Feed left In the trough to be
breathed over Is worse than wasted
II any remains 1t should be removed
and less given the next time. Digestive
disorders occar from feeding too much
rather than too little.
4. Do not underfeed the calf. 1t
should make continuous gain. If
1t does not grow each day the feed
given 1t Is about the same as wasted.
1t never pays to starve a calf. In
fact, the calf does not begin to pay
for feed until 1t is given more than
enough to make some gain.
5. Do not annoy or disturb the calf
unnecessarily. 1t requires more feed
to keep 1t growing while standing or
moving about than while lying down
at rest.
9. Do not feed moldy, musty, or
spoiled feeds. To do so may cause
serious digestive disorders. All hays
should be bright, well cured, and free
from mustiness, dirt, and coarse weeds.
The grain also should be free from
dirt, mold, and mustiness. II ground
feeds, get wet they are likely to mold.
This Is especially true OF cottonseed
meal and ground corn.
Z. Do not waste time In feeding the
calf, or In preparing feed, since wasted
time needlessly increases the cost Of
gains. Grain should be fed whole ex.
cept when teaching the calf to eat and
possibly also near the end Of the ct.
