Express Rates Continue Exhorbitant
A Hold-up.

Business men have a perfect right
to kick on the exorbitant express
rates. Wednesday this Office receiv-
ed a package weighing 46 pounds
from New York and the charges were
$500. If this is not a hold-up we
would hate to see one. Some of our
local firms inform us that their trans
portation charges amount to as much
as SO day, when under normal con-
ditions the charges should not be
over half the amount. It is certainly
time that rates should take a tumble
somewhere, but such will not be the
case until the people rise up and do
little boycotting. Hammond Vim

KIND OF FEED YOUNG
TURKEYS NEED

Successful turkey raising depends
largely upon proper care of the poults,
according to r. M. Dodge Of the Staf'
ford Farm, Bakersfield, Calf. The
chief causes ofshigh mortality of poults
during the first two weeks after hatch.
ing, he states, are improper feeding,
exposure to dampness, close confine-
ment and lice. On the subject of proper
feeding Mr.. Dodge in a pamphlet re-
Gently issued says:
"The poults should have nothing but
grit on the first day. On the second
day feed a small quantity of hard boil
ed egg. After the second day feed a
mash made as follows: For 10 poults
mix handfuls of wheat bran, hand
ful of cornmeal and hard boiled eggs
mashed, shell and all, with water
enough so that the mash will just hold
together. Feed five times day for a
week. After that three times day
During the fourth week change the
mash to equal parts bran and cornmeal
with less egg than before. During the
fifth week leave out the egg. During
the sixth week begin feeding milo
maize corn and feed less mash until you

month feed twice a day. A little char
coal may be added to the feed OF
turkeys, but this is not necessary. Soul
or sloppy food is sure death to young
turkeys. Never mix more than enough
mash for one feeding. Warm milk, di
rect from the COW, has been found te
give very good results when fed te
weak poulta. After tie ponlts are 0
few weeks old sous milk, buttermilk
clabber and curd may be fed.

SPRAY COW TO KEEP
AWAY FLIES

In warm weather the stockman ex-
periences much difficulty in protecting
his animals. from flies and repellents OF
various kinds are frequently used.
There are many preparations recon-
mended for this purpose but careful
experiments have demonstrated that
none of them, insofar as the California
department of agriculture is able to
determine, has been found to remain
effective over longer period than five
or six days. Not only have prepare
tions been applied externally to repel
flies but the internal administration OF
drugs has been tried. This latter
method of prevention against fly at
tacks was highly recommended at one
time but more recent experiments with
internal remedies by government ex
perts have prompted the statement that
internal remedies will never prove prac
teal in repelling flies.
External remedies in the form Of
powders such as pyrethrum and tobacco
have been found to manifest brief re
pellent properties after being applied tC
animals.
Oils of various kinds, admixtures OF
emulsons of oils, are frequently used as
fly repellents such as fish oil, crude pc
troleum, cottonseed or light coal tai
oil which may be applied in the pure
state. Other remedies having repellent
qualities are pine tar, oil of tar, crude
carbolic acid, oil of pennyroyal, laure
oil and kerosene. The following mix
ture has been recommended for use Oh
dairy cows:
Fish oil, 100 parts; oil of tar, sc
parts; crude carbolic acid, ! part; apply
the mixture with a spray pump.

EGGS BEAT HENS in
CASH RETURNS

According to estimates made by the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture the total value of poultry and eggs
produced on farms in 1921 was $943,
100000.
Of this total, approximately $4O1,-
100000 was for poultry, and $542,oo0,-
900 for eggs. Production of poultry
was 526,000,000 chickens and nea1ly
"a ,000,0 other fowls. Production Ct
eggs was 1887, 100000 dozen chicken
eggs, and 5000, 0,000, 900 dozen eggs from
all other poultry.
The 1921 value of all poultry raised
on farms in the United States was a
drop from $456, 100000. In 1920, and
from $417 100000 in 1919. The decline
in value from 1920 to 1921 was due to
the fall in price per fowl, and the in
crease in value from 1919 to 1920 was
| due to larger production, and IAN ad-
vance in average prices. The average
value per chicken raised in 1919 was
| 8l,6 cents; in 1920 it was 96.5 cents and
in 1921 it was II cents.
| The total value of poultry raised in
| 1921 is made up as follows: Chickens
$373, 100000 turkeys $12,900,000; geese
| $7,000,000; ducks, $4,90O,000; guinea
fowls, 81 900, 900; pigeons, 81 100000.
| The chicken eggs produced on farms
have considerably higher value than
the chickens raised. The estimated
value of chicken eggs in 1921 was $3.50,
600, 900; in 1910 it was $760,000,000 and
in 1919 it was $679,OO0000. For egg
production of all kinds of poultry, not
including pigeons, a value of $4,000,
| 600 is est0imated for 1921; $765 100000
for 1920, and $6s3, 100000 for 1919. In
1921 the average price of chicken eggs
throughout the entire United States
was 1913 cents per dozen; in 1920 il
was 44.4 cents, and in 1919 it was Al
cents.
The 1921 estimates for chickens an(
eggs produced are based upon 1919 cen
sus figures 1t is also pointed out by
the department that there is a large
production of poultry, and eggs not OF
farms.
