Keeping Purebred Stock
Induces Better Farming

The first fundamental of success
full poultry keeping, whether on the
farm, in a city yard, or in the large
plant, is good stock. 1t is true that
good many farmers and others
get fairly good results from ordin-
airy stock, but if the same care and
attention were devoted to birds of
better breeding more satisfactory
returns would be made.
There is another benefit from
keeping good stock that is not cas-
lily measured but, nevertheless, is
recognized as having a big money
value in the long run. That benefit
/ is the general improvement in the
place, methods, and the man him
self that comes from having birds
that are above the ordinary. A
man who has well-bred stock talks
about il and shows it to his neigh.
bors. Naturally, he wants the sur
roundings of his flock to look ship
shape and he takes pride in show
ing a knowledge of feeds and the
methods of feeding.
High class stock of any kind has
a tendency to bring other purebred
animals to the farm. A good pure
bred animal continues its work oil
| improvement indefinitely not only
within it's own class, but every
where on the farm from the field
to the library.

Ito San is the most popular va
riety for hogging down and for seed

Hollybrook for hay or ensilage in
the same region. Hollybrook for
all purposes is the variety most
widely grown and giving best re-
suits for the rest of the state south
of Lafayette, he says Manchu, a
variety which natures between
these two, is very desirable but
seed is scarce and somewhat high

corn, but plant them so the beans

POTATOES

Does purebred live stock pay?
The start or seed stock usually
costs a little more than the ordin
and joy of handling blooded animals
will soon make up for that. The
start once obtained, it is easy to
keep on in the same blood lines.
Doesn't the same thing apply to
seeds of all kinds? Ever since we
have been in the seed business we
have argued in favor of using only
seed which is true to name and
pure as can be had.
A great deal of publicity has
been given the potato question re-
Gently. What kind of potatoes
shall l raise this year? There are
a few very popular early varieties:
Early Ohio. This is the stand
ard potato. 1t is medium sized
potato light red in color. The vines
are small and die down early.
Early Six Weeks. These are ex-
ira early, oblong in shape, have
solid flest and cook we'll.
Early Triumph. The Triumph is
from week to 10 days earlier than
the Ohios. 1t is red tuber of gooS
size, firm white flesh and is very
productive.
Irish CobbIer. This is one of the
earliest varieties on the market.
Tubers are of good size and mature
in seven weeks from time of plant
ing. From the experience of truck
gardeners we have reached the con-
clusion that the kind of cobblers
to plant in this locality is the gen.
uine Maine stock. This is the po-
tato which has made Aristook ia
nous.

THE ANNUAL FIGHT

One OF the big problems which
confronts the farmer each year is
the protection of his fruit and vege-
tables against the ravages of in
sects and fungus diseases. There
is scarcely plant of any kind
which does not have half a dozen
or more enemies.
Insects and diseases may be con-
trolled by proper spraying. There
are few manufacturers who have
made exhaustive studies of all
kinds of diseases and in their
plants under the direction of skilled
chemists products are being made
which will best protect the plants
and destroy the parasites.
Careful manufacture, the best of
raw materials and the latest pro-
-cesses insure the maximum of ac-
tive and the minimum of inert ele-
ments. The best of these insec-
ticides and fungicides are made in
the finest form possible. This
means that the material will easily
go into suspension and remain
there. The result is that the plants
are evenly covered with the poison.
consequently, better frulL and VeSe-
tables are grown.
When the farmer goes to the
store to purchase his spraying ma
terials he should insist on getting
high class goods. They will not
cost as much in the end as the
poorer grades.
Most manufacturers of Insec-
ticideS and fungicideS issue a
Spraying Chart" which shows
when to spray for various injuries
and the proportions of poisonous
materials to use. These are we'll
worth having for ready reference.
They will save money.
You will find full information as
to what, why and when to spray, a
full line of insecticides and fungi
cides and sprayers at Whelans, the
Feed Man.
