POULTRY HINTS

The profitable raising of poultry
requires close attention to details and
a careful study of conditions to elm
mate losses. With proper care and
attention poultry can be made one of
the most, if not the most, profitable
part of farm ~husbandry.
One of the sources Of loss suffered
alike by farmer and poultryman is
that incurred by carrying a large per
cent of undesirable stock. The elm
ination of these boarders should start
early with the disposal of surplus
cockerels from the young growing
stock and continue through the year
with the culling of laying hens.
AS soon as the chicks have devel-
oped so that there is a possibility of
distinguishing sex, the pullets and
cockerels should be separated. Put the
pullets in large yards or on free range
away from the old stock where they
a have an abundance of green feed,
fresh water and shade. Feed and ham
die these pullets so as to develop them
into strong, healthy birds that will
start laying during October and con-
tinue through the winter when eggs
are high. If they have free range the
problem is much easier as there is
little danger of overlooking. Then,
too, in ranging about, they are con-
stantly building up full muscular
bodies and strong constitutions.
Tho rroto po&.oo ,,L,ol, :. l:~- ..oI
at the experiment station plant con-
sists of two parts wheat to one part
oats and one part cracked corn. This
can be fed either in hoppers before
them II scattered on the ground. A
dry mash is kept constantly before
them. This mash contains:
Shorts 20 lbs.
Ground oats ...............-. 10 lbs.
Barley or corn meal ........ 20 lbs.
Meat scrap ............... 20 lbs.
Fine table salt &c OF.
In addition to the above feed, grit,
oyster shell and charcoal are kept in
hoppers before them, and they have all
the our milk they will
During the summer keep close watch
of these pullets and remove and dis
pose of any birds that fail to develop
rapidly or show signs of weakness.
After the separation of pullets and
cockerels, the cockerels, all except the
few desired for breeders, should be
put in small shaded pens where they
have practically no room to run about.
Or, better still, confine them in fat
tening crates where they have no op-
p%ortunity to exercise. Force feed these
birds for a period Of fourteen to seven
teen days and then sell them.
In fattening tests conducted at the
experiment station the following "a.
ton proved very satisfactory:
Corn or barley meal ........ 20 lbs.
Ground oats ...., ,........... 60 lbs.

FLAX. ADVISES
EXPERIMENT STATION

Bozeman, May 17.-With a late
spring and an unusual amount of
moisture in the ground, the Montana
extension service again is pointing out
the desirability of planting some flax
on the farms in the flax districts of
the state. Flax is one of the very best
catch crops, and should be planted as
soon as possible after the sowing of
wheat and oats. 1t adds to the d.
versity of crops on the farm and has
long been one of the best of cash
crops. There is a steady demand for
good flaxseed. At present the pro-
posed federal tariff law carries a duty
of 40 cents a bushel on the seed, a
strong protection for American flax
growers. There is also a tariff Of 3k
cents a pound on the linseed oil. Mon
tana, by planting some flax on many
farms again in 1922, will hold her po-

E
FOR SEED POTATOES

The treatment of seed potatoes is
good insurance even though the grow
er may think that his potatoes are free
from disease. Instances are known
where new land has been infected with
disease by planting potatoes which the
grower thought were not infected and
such land is not safe for the produc-
ton Of clean seed for several years.
Before treating the seed it is a good
plan to sort out all rotted tubers and
others which are of doubtful value as
seed. Treat the potatoes before cut
ting.
The two most common diseases for
which potatoes are treated are the
common potato scab and rhizoctonia
and any disinfectant should preferably
be for both. Since corrosive sublimate
(murcuric b%ichloride) is effective
against both, and formaldehyde as
commonly used is only effective
against scab, a solution of the former
is the best all around disinfectant to
use.
Four ounces of this material is used
to 80 gallons of water. 1t is first dis
solved in several quarts of hot water
in the bottom of a so gallon barrel,
which makes a suitable container in
which to dip potatoes; then add enough
water to bring the quantity up to 80
gallons. Soak as many tubers as this
solution will cover for one hour and
then spread out to dry.
1t is a good plan to set the barrel
on a box or low platform and have a
hole in the bottom so that the solu-
ton can be drained off. In this way
potatoes can be put in a barrel loose
and more treated at a time than if
they are dipped while in the sacks.
The disadvantage of sacks is that they
absorb the solution. Potatoes thus
treated should be put in clean sacks
that have not been contaminated. If
a second barrel is available it can be
filled ready for the solution when the
preceding batch is done.
Since the solution is greatly weak
ened, n to 2-5 ounce of dissolved cor
rosive sublimate should be added after
every six bushels treated and the vol
ume of the solution is kept constant.
A fresh solution should be made up
after treating fifty bushels Of pota-
toes. This applies when tubers are rea-
sonably clean; if they are very dirty
they should either be cleaned or not
SO many treated before strengthening
and making up fresh solutions,
Caution: Corrosive sublimate is a
deadly poison if taken internally and
treated tubers should not be used fol
any food purposes. 1t is not injurious
to the skin.
1t should only be handled in earth.

sition as third among American states
in flax production.
Flax has been the cash crop of the
pioneer in this state. Yields on new
breaking, even when the seeding was
late, encouraged growing of the crop.
Many farmers have the idea that flax
is very hard on the land, but investi-
cations show that the crop is a very
efficient user of soil moisture.
Flax does not do we'll on loose and
open land. 1t is a poor weed fighter
and care must be taken to keep the
weeds down. 1t is important that
seeding be done Immediately after the
final cultivation.
Care should be taken to choose good
seed. The choice for Montana lies
between N. d. 1856, N. D. Resistant So,
and N. D. Resistant ia. Great care
should be taken to insure against the
sowing of bad weed seeds.
Information may be obtained from
the Montana extension service, con
corning flax as a Montana crop.

Mr.. and Mrs. Herman Mittelstadt
were Baylor visitors Sunday. Mr.
Mittelstadt has $50 acres seeded to
wheat already, sixty acres of which

Thirty outfits in the Wild Rose
community met at Mat Anderson's one
day last week and plowed and seeded
65 acres and disked forty more. Mr.,
Anderson has been in poor health this

the neighbors displays a very fine
sense of community spirit.
