a story of love was unfolded. The

Corrosive Sublimate Is
Best to Kill Magpots

The best authorities on insect pests
Of garden plants recommend the use
Of corrosive sublimate solution for the
cabbage root maggot. w. P. Flint,
state entomologist Of Illinois, advises
treating the cabbage plant with So
luton of one ounce of corrosive sub
Innate in ten gallons of water, apply
ing the treatment within three days
after the plants are set and repeating
week later. About one-third to one
half cupfuI Of the solution should be
applied to the soil around each plant.
1t Is best to dissolve the corrosive
subllmate in a small amount Of hot
water before diluting to the above
strength. If but a few plants are to
be treated, the corrosive sublimatc tab
let's may be used, at the rate Of one
tablet per pint Of water.
The corrosive sublimate solution
must be carefully handled, because Of
its poisonous and caustic properties.
If allowed to come in contact with the
skin, as on the hands, It will cause
burns. Its caustic properties also
make 1t necessary TO store the solu-
ton in glass or earthenware. rather
than In metal vessels.

Equipment Needed for
Producing Clean Milk

During some experiments by the
United States Department Of AgricuI
ture to determine the equipment nee
essary for the production of clean
milk. without any change in barn man
agement, the experimenting special
lists had two cows MIXED into small
top pals and two MIXED into ordinary
open-top pals. The milk from the
open-top pals averaged 497,653 bac
terra per cubic lcentimeter; from the
small-top pals the average was $685.

the use Of the small-top pail. without
any other extra precaution made a
difference of 129, 439 bacteria per cubic
centImeter. Or a little more than one
fourthl
1t is very important to note that
milk with a low bacterial count can
be produced in practically any COW
barn, at very small extra expense
and a little extra care. The items
that the experiments above mentioned
proved to be necessary are: "a
healthy animals; t2) clean cows. es.

Principles Shown in
Feeding Dairy Cows
Adequate Diet Must Contain
Mineral Ingredients.

Prepared b. the United States Department
Of Agricuiturel
Experiments In nutrition during the
last few years have resulted In the Dis
covery Of new principles In nutrition,
many Of which are important in the
proper feeding Of dairy cattle, says the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture. 1t has been found that an nde-
Quate diet must contain certain mineral
ingredients, and also certain organic
compounds whose exact chemical ma
ture Is still unknown but which have
been called vitamIns. It Is quite pos
slble to make up a diet from ordinary
feedstuffs which viii contain sufficient
protein and energy. and yet be deficient
In either minerals or vitamins, or both.
There is every reason for believing
that the whole subject Of feeding for
the maintenance of high milk Yields
can be very much slmplifed as com
pared with the systems Of feeding now
practiced, and also great economies In
troduced into feeding practices, by a
systematic study Of the vitamin and
mineral contents Of dairy feeds and Of
the relation of these to milk produc-
tIon.
1t seems probable, also, that the min
eral and vitamln contents of dairy
feeds may be found to have an lmpor-
tant bearing on the breeding vigor, or
reproductive ability, Of dairy cattle.
These studies are under way and re-
suits Of considerable practical impor-
lance have been obtained, some Of
which show that high-producing dairy
cows suffer from shortage Of lime
unless they are fed much larger
amounts Of legume hay than is Gus
tomary in many parts Of the coun-
try, and that there Is a vitamlne In
fresh, green feed which will probably
promote the assimilation Of lime by
milking animals. II has also been
shown that there are differences In
the values of protein for feeding dairy
cows.
