FARM NOTES
Poultry CulIing Work Popular.

4
Twenty-Five fiocks were culled dur
ing the month Of July in all 5000
girds were handled, from which S35
were culled out and ia people at
tended the demonstration and learned
how to Gull their locks. These fig
ures show that there is interest in the
poultry business and that people want
to know more about the culling OF
their fiocks. AS to the value or ac-
curacy of the work l wish to give the
testimonies of several of the farmers
who have reported on the work done
for them.
Mrs Walter Morrisey reports, out
of thirty birds that " re culled out
of their flock they held them one
week and received from one to two
eggs per day, and mentioned that one
day none were received from the flock
Of culled birds.
Adolph Kimbel who lives near Bee
town kept his birds nearly two weeks
and reports that they never got over
two eggs per day from IS hens that
were culled from his flock.
August Oberhauser & Son of High
land reports that after culling AZ
birds from their flock their egg pro-
duction has increased from about 80
eggs per day before culling, to 30
eggs per day after culling.
Mr.. VIM. Stoker, Potosi, reports
that upon keeping the so hens culled
out of his flock for one week, he re-
ceived but two eggs from them dur
ing that time.
From these reports we can readily
see why we should Gull our f1ocks
There is absolutely no need OF feed
ing the one third of the flock that is
not producing any eggs or at best
very few About seventy-five more
farmers have their names listed for
the culling of their f1ocks and will be
reached as soon as the county agent
can possibly reach them and any one
living near one of these demonstra-
tons that will be given in their neigh
borhood should take off time enough
to attend the demonstration in order
to be able to Gull his own flock. In
some neighborhoods everybody knows
how to do poultry culling and that is
what can be brought about in every
section of the county if little coop
Grafton is practiced. Let us cooper
ate and do even greater things than
having our poultry culled.

County Agent.

COW TESTING REPORT
P. F. GRAF,
County Agent.

In the month of July there were So
COWS making 40 pounds or more OF
butterfat.
The high COW is owned by P. j.
Brandt, and the high herd by Guy
Walker. The three high herds are as
follows: Guy Walker, % COWS, 4O.3
pounds; P. J. Brandt, II COWS, 37.9
pounds Theo Wehrle, 26 COWS, 35.9
pounds butterfat.
Cows that are being fed grain are
not falling off in milk nearly as much
as those which depend on pastures
alone. The feeding of grain is prov
ing to be profitable, about 10 members
now feeding grain.

PLATTEyILLE SNAKE STORY

Another rattlesnake has been kill
ed at Tufa Falls, according to reports.
Curator Smith of the Milwaukee Pub
lie museum and an assistant by the
name of Tuttrup have been searching

various types, and have been taking
many excellent photographs of the

Tufa they ran upon snake and on
hearing its threatening rattle, killed
it, According to their story, the snake
was s feet long and possessed seven
teen rattles. This is the second rat
tier killed at Tufa Falls recently, and,
while the Falls are among Platte
