labor, the luxuries which life in the
city affords and an inadequate system
Of education are some of the condi-
tons blamed by Hatch as slowly but
surely forcing a peasant people onto
the land.
.'The salvation of the situation lies
alone with the educators" is Hatch's
appeal to the agricultural teachers.
In you we see our only hope Russia
may produce bread for the world, but
hers are a peasant people, IS per cent
illiterate
''We have no fears of Russian COM
petition. Argentine may feed the
world with meat, but so long as the
American farmer on 40 acres of land
can produce as much as the South
American farmer on 10 times that
area, we have little to fear from him.
Tropical oils are cheaply produced by
untutored savages, but these are no
competitors for brains and energy.
ut used to be said by the old
economists that land, labor and capital
were the source of all wealth. Today
We musta id to these another faclCr--

It Pays to Dehorn All
Stock Before Marketing

Dehorned steers or heifers not only
can be handled more conveniently on
the farm than cattle with horns, but If
put on the market either as stock
calves. feeders, or finished fat cattle,
will sell for an average of one-half cent
q pound more. This statement is
made by w. II. Peters of the animal
husbandry division at University farm,
who says further:
sgThe best time to dehorn is when
the calf is from ten days to one month
old. The horns can then be easily
killed, and with very little conven-
fence to the calf, by rubbing them with
a stick of caustic potash until they
show a red surface The caustic stick
should be dampened on the end when
rubbing the horn and should be held
with a cloth about it or with an old
glove on the hand. One application
will suffice on the younger calves, but
after calves are month old it may be
necessary to make two or even three
applications. Yearling cattle can gen
orally be dehorned with safety at this
time of year. A dehorning clipper can
be used"
Mr.. Peters warns that purebred cat
tie should not be dehorned. The shape,
size quality, and position Of the horns
are characteristic of certain breeds and
naturally have a bearing on the selling
value. On that account, says Mr..
Peters, breeders discriminate severely
against purebred cattle when they
have been dehorned.

Stomach Worm Loss in
Sheep Is Preventable

Animal husbandry division men at
University farm say that sheep own
ers of the state have suffered great
losses among their f1ocks by reason of
the stomach worm. The lambs suf-
fer the most. These losses can be re-
duced by treatment that is inexpen-
sive and easily administered.
'-rhe best preventive and the one
most easily given" says Philip A. An
derson of the division, ais copper sui
phate or blue stone, as it is often
known. Make 1 per cent solution
by dissolving one-quarter Of a. pound
of the blue stone in a pint Of boiling
water, adding cold water to make
three gallons, being sure that a clear
solution is obtained and always using
an earthenware or a wooden recep-
tacle. The dose for lambs, according
to size, is three-quarters of an ounce
to one and one-half ounces; for older
sheep, two and one-half ounces to
three ounces. An ordinary tablespoon
holds one-half ounce.
"a veterinarians syringe can be
used, but care must be exercised in
not pushing the plunger of the syringe
too rapidly, as the solution may enter
the lungs and give trouble. This treat
ment should be repeated in ten days
or two weeks, or, If the flock is badly
infested, two or three times during
seasons at intervals of 80 days"
