BLAcKHEAD is MOST DEADLY
When Disease Appears Afflicted Men,
bers of Flock Should Be isolated
for Treatment.


The most dangerous and deadly dis
ease that aff1icts turkeys is known as
blackhead. It is so called because its
one outward distinguishing character
istic is that in mature turkeys the
heads turn dark. Only the heads of
turkeys too young to show red do not
turn black. Inside the fowl, one will
discover if a post-mortem is held, the
liver will be enlarged and spotted, and
the large colon will usually be empty
while the small one is often crammed
with a hard substance.
AS soon as this disease puts in its
appearance, the afflicted members of
the flock should be removed for sep
arate care. Use air-slalzed lime, or any
convenient disinfectant, freely about
roosts and feeding place. In the mash
fed to turkeys three to four months
old mix thoroughly one tablespoonful
of oil of turpentine to each 20 well
fowls. Increase the dose gradually to
two tablespoonful. After week
cease, but begin at once upon reap
pearance of the disease. Use pro-
portionate amount for younger tur-
keys.
Blackhead, unless caught in its very
early stages, is usually fatal and only
the stoutest poults will recover. The
sick fowls require a great deal Of at
tention and in addition to the turpen-
tine in soft food recommended above
for the well fowls, the sick ones should
have a daily dose Of two or three
drops of turpentine to each fowl in
small amount of bran and meal mash.
The sick ones should be fed forcibly
IL they decline to eat, and should not
be allowed much water to drink. For
an infected old turkey, give table
spoonful Of olive Oil every few days in
addition to the turpentine.
Some say that blackhead is not
communicable disease in so far as one
fowl will catch it from another.
However, the germs live long time,
whether in infected soil, coops, fixtures
or what not Often blackhead is a
disease of captivity, of management,
or of improper feeding. Improper
feeding, in the average case, means
overlooking. The feeding of turkeys
must be regarded merely as supple
mentary to what is obtained on the
range and the amount should be regu-
lated accordingly.

BRO0DY FOWL POOR BREEDER
Applying Leg Bands When Putting
Lazy Ones in Coop Shows Them
Up at End Of Season.

A method used by poultrymen to
make sure that hens that go broody a
number of times during a season are
not used for breeders Is to put eel
luloid leg band on the birds each time
they go broody, says the New York
state agricultural college at Ithaca.
It will be found that some hens go
broody several times during the sea-
son while others of the same breed
and strain do not stop laying at ALL
Those hens that have four or five
bands on their legs at the end of the
laying season should not be used as
breeders. Most of them are not even
worth saving another season as lay
ers, the college says.
Figures collected by poultry special
lists show that it costs 18 to 20 cents
a month to feed a hen. A hen that
averages 10 eggs month more than
pays her way, even when eggs are
cheap. Those that go broody often
are not profitable
The college recommends visiting the
hen house each night and putting all
hens found on nests in the broody
coop, leg-banding them at the same
time. Here they are confined for 72
hours and fed laying mash, green feed,
and plenty Of water. If the broody
coop is roomy and in cool place they
will soon ''come out Of it." the col
lege predicts.

CUT FIRE INSURANCE
COSTS LATEST PLAN
Reduction of 20 to 80 Per Cent
Is One of Accomplishments
of Eastern Bureau.

Cutting fire insurance costs from 70
to 80 per cent is one of the accomplish
ments just being effected by the Mas
sachusetts Farm Bureau Federation.
A fire prevention campaign is the
first step in the farm bureau plan.
With the aid of exhibits at county.
fairs, talks at farmers meetings,
pamphlets and newspaper publicity,
fire prevention measures have been
emphasized.
Through the farm bureau, farmers
have been able to secure fire extin-
guishers at cost.
Formation Of an insurance pool with
one Of the old mutual companies of
the state, is the second step in the
Massachusetts plan.
This company has placed it's farm
business. in separate class The
farm bureau has acted as agent for
the insurance pool, and be securing
large number Of desirable risks has
lowered rates from 20 to 80 per cent.
Howard s. Russell, president Of the
Massachusetts Farm Bureau FEEDER
alton, says:
"We have of necessity had but little
time to put into tbs project. It has
been handled entirely by mail Re
quests, however, are coming in stead
lily. We have already saved many
farmers from 20 to 80 per cent of their
insurance cost. We have placed fire
extinguishers on many farms and have
induced a number Of farmers to in
stall lightning rods.
SIN addition we have saved our
farmers hundreds of dollars by secur-
ing a direct reduction in rates for IL
ability insurance on farmers cars and
trucks from one of the liability COM

PLANNING FOR FALL PULLETS
1t Is Well to Figure on at Least Five
Eggs for Every Fowl Going Into
Laying House.

How many pullets are you planning
next fall?
At this time Of the year, according
to w. H. Allen, extension specialist
In poultry husbandry of the New Jer-
sey state agricultural college, every
poultryman should start planning for
the number of pullets that he ex-
poets to put into the laying quarters
next November.
Too often the poultryman finds when
he goes to fill his house with pullets
that he has not the number that he
needs to fill it, and as a result often
carries over too many hens which will
not pay him nearly as well from a
market egg standpoint as good early
Matched pullets.
If one is Matching his own eggs, 1t
is well to count on at least five eggs
for every pullet that is to go in the
laying house. Figuring on the expecta-
ton Of so per cent hatch and also
on the assumption that for every pull
let that is Matched there will be one
cockerel, it will take four eggs for
every pullet that is Matched.
From records kept by poultrymen a
10 to 20 per cent mortality Is to be
expected in rearing the pullets; there
fore, a good poultryman figures five
to six eggs for every bird that is to
be put in the laying house the next
fall.

ton should be taken to save this part.
The simplest manure pit is simply a
water-tight concrete box, which pre-
vents the valuable elements of the
manure from leaking away. This can
be enlarged to suit requirements. For
the average farm a manure pit 20 feet
wide and "a feet long with an average
depth of feet will take care of the
storage of manure from 20 animals. It
should be made with floor sloping to-
ward one corner in which a cistern is
located, into which the liquid manure
can drain and from which it can be
pumped out. One end should be open
so that a spreader can be backed into
the pit to facilitate the removal of the
manure.
The fertility of the farms in eastern
Pennsylvania, which has been pre-.
served through long years Of cropping,
has been maintained through the care
full utilization of all manures. The
accompanying photograph shows a
rather elaborate manure storage ar
rangement built near Narberth, Pa. It
is provided with a sloping floor upon
which the manure spreader can be
driven to dump the manure into the
pit. The opposite end is open below
so that the spreader can be loaded
easily. This pit is provided with q
roof, which is considered good prac-
tice, as it gives the manure further
protection

POULTRY HINTS

Early to rise and late to roost-
that's a good hen.
If you expect the best results in
raising chicks, do not use pullet eggs.
Newly-hatched chicks should not
have any feed for SO hours after
Matching, and in most cases 4s hours
Is better.
A good concentrate or egg mash for
hens is suggested as follows: One
hundred pounds cornmeal. 100 pounds
wheat bran, 100 pounds wheat mid
dlings, 100 pounds gluten feed, 100
pounds meat scrap.
A sick hen may be faded like good
layer, but she Will lack the vigor
shown by a good layer.
A chicken preyed upon by parasites
has poor chances to make anything Of
itself. Blood-sucking insects sap its
very life.
If you have no incubator and must
use hens for Matching, always choose
the gentle hens for mothers of your
flock. Put the fioppers and all excit-
able hens in the pen and break them
from sitting.

BARNARD MANURE TO.
MAINTAIN FERTILITY
Concrete Pit Is Sure Way to Pre-.
vent Big Waste.
Many Farmers Permit Valuable Mate,
rial to Lose Greater Portion of Its
Elements by Failing to Give
Proper Care.

A concrete manure pit is a certain
means of saving a part of the millions
of dollars that are wasted annually in
this country from careless handling of
barnyard manure. Soil fertility built
up and maintained by regular applica-
ton of barnyard manure will result in
bountiful crops, yet the majority of
farms will allow this material to lose
the greater portion of it's valuable fer
ttlizing elements by improper care or
lack of care.
According to the Pennsylvania ex-
pertinent station the value Of manure
produced in one year by horse is
$31.67; that by dairy COW $38.76.
One-half of the value of manure is in
the liquid, consequently every precau-

BULLETIN DISCUSSES
WATERMELON DISEASE

1t is not surprising that farmers
who produce Watermelons for the
market have been slow to adopt dis
ease-control measures when frequent
ly buyers pay just as high price to
growers Of diseased melons as to
those who produce healthy ones, says
the United States Department of Agri-
culture in Farmers Bulletin 1877,
Diseases of Watermelons, just off the
a movement toward cooperation be-
tween railroads, distributors and grow
ers that promises great improvement
in this respect.
The bulletin discusses and gives
control measures for such diseases as
wilt, root-knot, gummy stem blight,
ground-rot, anthracnose, stem-end
rot, and minor diseases. 1t contains
a convenient descriptive key to all
these diseases, by means Of which
a grower may identify a disease in
his field.
Briefly, the control measures for a
few of the principal diseases are as
follows:
Wilt is avoided by planting on land
not previously used for watermelons,
with precautions against the use Of
wilt infested stable manure and the
spread of the disease by drainage
water and live stock.
Root-knot can be prevented by the
use Of land free from infestation, or
by rotating infested fields with root
knot immune crops.
Anthracnose is controlled by thor
ough spraying with bordeaux mixture,
during the month preceding the ma
turity of the crop.
For stem-end rot the most impor-
tant measure is the disinfection of
the cut stems with bluestone paste
as the melons are loaded into cars.
Infection by the organisms that
cause anthracnose, gummy stem
blight, and ground-rot may be reduced
by seed disinfection, provided the
crop is planted on soil that is free
from these diseases and In case barn
yard manure containing the organisms
is not used.

partment Of Agriculture, Washington,

PLAN NOT TO DESTROY BEES
Yearly Complaint Made That Honey
Gatherers Are Killed by Spraying
Fruit Trees.

Every year a good many complaints
are made by beekeepers all over the
country that their bees are being killed
by the spray applied to fruit trees.
There is no need for this, if the
spray is applied at the proper time
AS a matter of fact, it is better for
the spray to be applied at a time when
it will not kill the bees from the stand
point of the fruit crop itself. The
spray is best applied after a majority
of the petals have fallen, say 95 per
cent, and should come before the caIyx
lobes close. The spray is equally eff
fective in controlling the cooling
moth If applied after most of the pet
ais fall and it will not harm the bees.

FEEDING POTATOES TO PIGS
Peculiarly Valuable as Supplement in
Fattening-BoiI Them in Feed
Cooker.

Since it will be to the advantage of
potato growers to get rid of all I'M
dersized and injured potatoes at home,
the best method of feeding this prod
uct to the pigs will be of interest
to many. Potatoes are peculiarly
valuable as supplement in fatten-
ing pigs. The best practice is to
cook the potatoes, drain off the water
and then mix the potatoes with grain
at the rate of about three parts of
potatoes to one part of the grain. Boil
the potatoes in a feed cooker and
then do the mixing in barrel with
piece of board of suitable length.
Thus prepared, liberal quantities may
be fed to fattening hogs and also to
brood sows and small pigs.

CORN MOST IMPORTANT CROP
Quantity of Yield Is Greatly Influ-

Used by Farmer.

Corn is the most important crop in
the United States, both in acreage and
in value. The quantity Of yield is
greatly Influenced by the quality of
the seed planted, says the United
States Department of Agriculture A
practical way to decrease the cost Of
harvesting the crop if it is to be fed
to hogs is to let the hogs do the har-
vesting or "hogging down" by turn
ing them into the fields in the fall.

The amount of gluten feed, cotton

the production or roughage rich in

Heavy grain feeding is also expensive,
and the quantity of grain fed can be
lowered by growing roughages of high

CROP ROTATION is FAVORED
Gardener Can Avoid Enormous An

Insects and Diseases.

There is rule scratched down in
the notebook of many good gardeners
that reads something like this: 'Never
allow cabbage to follow caulifower or
caulifower to follow cabbage" The
reason for this rule is that both crops
are attacked by the same kinds of dis
eases and insects, and by rotating
them with other vegetables losses
from these pests are often avoided.
