Rotation to Prevent
Disorders of Beans
Hand Pick Disease-Free
Pods to Use for Seeding.

Plant beans on the same land not
oftener than once in three or four
years, particularly if disease has been
prevalent. Soils which once become
thoroughly infected as result of con-
tinuous cropping are seldom safe to
use for the same or closely related
crops for years to come.
Wherever practical, destroy all dis
eased vines and trash by burning.
If the bean straw from diseased
vines is to be fed. do not use the
manure on a field that is to be planted
to beans.
As far as possible avoid cultivating
the beans early in the morning when
there is dew on them, or when they
are wet with rain.
Hand pick disease-free pods, or If
possible, select disease-free plants
for seed. Use these to plant seed
plot on land which has never raised
beans, and which is removed some
distance from the main crop.
Remember that hand picking Of seed
as it comes from the fail or thrasher
for the purpose of controlling disease
is of no value, since it is impossible
to detect even small percentage Of
diseased seed
Seed treatment of beans Is Of 80
practical value, since any chemical
that would penetrate the seed deeply
enough to destroy the disease-produc-
ing organism would likewise be apt
to kill the seed.

Find Silage Profitable
as Feed for Baby Beeves

Recent feeding tests with baby
beeves at the Minnesota experiment
station show that silage can be prof
itably used in fattening baby beeves.
In the tests, which were conducted by
w. Fl. Peters and N. X. Carnes. calves
getting silage, plus full feed of grain,
fed more regularly and required less
skillful and careful feeding than calves
getting a heavy feed of grain and no
silage.
The silage-fed calves gained 2.36
pounds per head per day as an average
of 196-day feeding period, while the
calves fed without silage gained at the
rate of 2.22 pounds per head per day
Although the calves fed without silage
were valued at 10 cents per hundred
pounds above those which had silage
the silage-fed calves showed net
profit Of $3.50 per head while those
without silage made profit Of $16.15
per head.
In another test barley proved prac-
tically equal to corn, pound for pound,
in making gains ON fattening calves.
However, because of the greater cost
of the barley and the smaller saving
of feed made by hogs following, the
corn-fed calves showed profit of
$1615 per head, while the profit on
those fed barley was but $6.91 per
head
Pure bred beef calves, high-grade
beef calves and common calves show
ing some traces Of beef breeding made
feed. The difference In selling price
was marked, however, the pure breds
bringing $86.7S per head, the grades
$83.45 and the common calves only
$561S per head.

Sheep Raising Spurred
by Advance in Prices

1.-THE farmer who has the equipment
and feeds at hand should be encour-
aged in raising lambs" says Phil A..
Anderson of the animal husbandry d.
vision, University Of Minnesota But
farmers entering this field should go
slowly at first and study the require
ments very thoroughly" he adds
Mr. Anderson makes the foregoing
statement in view of the greatly in
creased interest exhibited in sheep pro-
duction the last few months, which has
been brought about by advancing
prices for wool, steady lamb market
and good profits made in feeding lambs
during 1921-1922.
Stocks of wool. which accumulated
during the war and Immediately after,
have now been converted into merchan.
disc. Manufacturers short Of mill sup.
plies and eager to keep the mills going
have become anxious to buy, causing
the price to 60 up.
prices of lambs have been at $12 to
SIS per 100 pounds for long time.
with variation Of 81 to $3.50 for
shorn lambs" says Professor Anderson
Such prices should be an inducement
for many farmers to have f1ocks of rs
to 35 ewes or more which will consume
green food perhaps otherwise wasted
and convert 1t into a marketable
product. With wool and market stock
high in price, because Of decrease in
the number Of sheep in the United
States and the action of the new pro-
tective tariff, our sheep breeders can
surely compete with the breeders ~
other countries"

Oklahoma King has stood up well
and actually gained flesh during his
travels. This is all the more remark
able in view of the fact that he has
been shipped as any ordinary hog
would be moved about, in crate by
|express. AT his numerous stops, how
ever, he has been accorded royal re-
3ceptions and honors have been heaped
high upon his porcine head. In one
! city nothing was considered too good
for one of his loyal standing and he
was given quarters in the lobby of the
leading hotel.
This noted animal began life in the
classical environment of the Oklahoma
| Agricultural college. Under the con-
slant supervision of former pig club
winner he was grown and fitted for the
great competition at Chicago and am
tply justified this faith by defeating
nearly 500 of the finest market hogs In
the world for supreme shonors.
Competent judges have conceded
that Oklahoma King is one of the most
perfect types of market barrows that
has ever been produced, and it is for
the purpose of allowing as many peo-
pie as possible to personally inspect
this ideal porker that the breed asso-
.iations have saved him from the
butchers block and have sent him on
