Cost of Feed Biggest
Item in Stock Farming

The cost of feed Is the biggest item
n stock farming. To produce cheap
ration Is therefore one Of the most i'm.
portant factors In the business, and
the stock farmer who wishes to be
successful must learn how to reduce
his feed bill.
The Missouri experiment station re-
Gently issued bulletin on the cost
Of crop production, showing the cost
Of putting up hay to be S3.38 per ton.
They did not say whether this hay
was put up liz stack or NOV, but the
figures indicate that modern labor
saving tools were used and that the
hay was well housed either In stack or
she'd 1t costs from 85 cents to $1.25
per ton to put corn in the silo; thus
we find that silage, on ton basis can
be put up at from one-third to one
quarter the cost Of hay. The quality
Of silage can be controlled, while the
quality Of hay depends on the weather.

lean association Jumpers were or

Although the Athletics had disbanded,
the association rightfully laid claim
to Bierbauer as one Of their own, al
though the association had unwittingly
neglected to reserve him.
When Pittsburgh went after the
player the association raised howl.
The matter was submitted to board
OF arbitration. This board upheld
the action Of Pittsburgh. The associa-
ton withdrew from the national agree
ment, and the strife was on.
"The American association then con-
ferred the current nickname on the

Quantities of Milk
to Feed Young Calf
Undertaking at Start Is
Better Than Overlooking.

prepared BY the United States Department
OF Agriculture)
The United States Department Of
Agriculture gives some figures on the
quantities of milk that may be fed
to calves at different ages. At birth
50-pouad calf needs about pounds
a day, while 100-pound calf will use
IL pounds. Underfeeding at the start,
says the department. is better than
overlooking. Some beginners make the
mistake of giving the calf all 1t wants.
This would probably be good prac-
tice II the calf were fed every 2 or 3
hours. as Is the case when 1t runs
with the COW. However, when young
calf has been without feed for from
8 to II hours, there Is danger that It
will gorge itself II allowed to con-
sumo all 1t wants, which may cause
digestive trouble.
A uniform temperature of about 80
degrees #. Is necessary II the milk
Is to agree with the calf and produce
the best results. Some feeders at
tempt to make up for any lack In
AuoiAly Va tiG hihh W iuShCdotAk Tic
quantity. For instance, they will feed
much more skim milk than whole milk
In the belief that the increased quanti-
ty will make up for the lack of but
terfat. This Is wrong. as the same
rule about overlooking holds good
with skim milk as with whole milk.
If on account of age, souring, or dirt
the quality Of the milk Is poor, the
quantity should be reduced rather
than increased. The calf will not lose
SO much In development through a re-
duction In feed as he would from d.
gestivc disorders. A calf often can
take relatively small quantity Of bad
milk for long periods and hold It's own
and even make small gains, when 4
larger portion would cause digestive
trouble and even endanger the anil
mails life.

Destroying Army Worms
by Use of Paris Green

The army worm Is a smooth, striped
caterpillar about an inch and a quar-
ter long and a quarter OF an inch In
diameter 1t Is rather dark In APP
pearance. While normally 1t feeds
by night and hides by day, not being
generally noticed, as soon as 1t has
increased to such numbers that It's
food supply falls short 1t starts to
travel, and, becoming holder, feeds
during both day and night.
How worms may be destroyed: If
the worms have not yet attacked q
field, the most practicable way to
keep them out Is to pillow burrows in
front Of them, throwing the furrow In
the direction toward which they are
travelling. The worms will fall into
the furrow, and when this Is full they
may be killed either by dragging a
log back and forth In the furrow or
by destroying the worms In holes pre-
in the bottom of the furrow. Kero-
sene poured on them In the holes will
destroy them. If the worms are al
ready In the field, the following mix
ture, which Will attract the worms
and destroy them, should be spread
about One pound Of paris green (poi-
sonous), fifty pounds Of wheat bran
and the juice Of one-half dozen or
anges.
Bring this mixture to q stiff dough
by the use Of diluted molasses, and
scatter it amongst the worms. Care
should be taken to keep this dough
from children or domestic animals.

Prepare Soil for
Fall-SoWn Alfalfa
Late July or Early August Is
Best Time, According to
Federal Experts.

prepared by tbs United States Department
OF Agricuiture.)
preparation of the seed bed for fall
sowing of alfalfa should begin in late
July or early August. in the opinion
of experts Of the United States De-
partment Of Agriculture. In the
eastern alfalfa region from Pennsyl-
vania south, September is common
time for fall alfalfa sowing, the date
varying with local conditions. To get
the soil settled it should be plowed
not later than early August. Then
just before seeding time 1t should
be loosened up for depth of about
2 inches. If the subsurface Is not well
packed the conditions will not be
favorable for the young alfalfa plants.
Applying Lime.
Alfalfa needs lime. II the soil Is
deficient, put on at least ton Of the
best Of air-slaked or its equivalent In
other pulverized forms. This can be
applied at blowing time or later, be-
fore the first narrowing, bearing In
mind that lime must be well incor-
porated with the soil to be effective.
Arrange early for the seed. Domes-
tic-grown seed is better than imported,
which is likely to be Of the Turkestan
variety. Domestic-grown common al
falfa seed such as Is raised in Kansas
or is grown under similar conditions
is advised except for the northern part
of the Eastern states, where Grimm
or some other hardy variety should
be used
incubation Of Soil.
Do not forget to inoculate the soil.
Directions and the addresses of
sources from which bacteria can be OBJ
tanned will be furnished by the De-
partment Of Agriculture or your state
experiment station, or can be obtained
through your county agent. Do not
try to see how little seed you can
use and still obtain satisfactory
stand. On the other hand, more than
20 pounds to the acre is unnecessary.
If the sowing is done in September
and conditions are favorable the
young plants should reach height Of
IL inches or more before winter. The
crop should not be cut, but allowed to
go through the winter to permit sue
cessful survival of the freezing
months.
Circulars giving specific directions
for growing alfalfa under various
local conditions may be obtained from
the department ON request

Imported Currant Worm
Reduces Yield of Fruit

Currents and gooseberries have
suffered severely from the depreda-
ton of the imported currant worm in
the last few years and this year we
may look for even greater infestation.
These worms can in few days strip
the bushes Of leaves. This naturally
reduces the yield Of fruit and If re-
peated for several consecutive years,
may kill the bushes.
Now Is the time to put stop to
the ravages of this insect. The most
effective treatment is spraying with
lead arsenate at the rate Of two or
three tablespoonfuls to gallon Of
water Lead arsenate has the desr-
able quality Of adhering to the leaves
FOR long time and retaining Its
strength throughout that time. For
these reasons it is much preferred to
white hellebore. the old fashioned
currant worm remedy.
