Salt, Lime and Iodine
Needed in Stock Rations

tion." declared e. b. Hart of the agri-
cultural chemistry department, Univer-
sity of Wisconsin.
Salt Is an essential factor in a we'll
balanced ration" declared Mr.. Hart.
When used 1t is usually in the form OF
ordinary salt or sodium chloride. The
chlorine upon entering the stomach
forms h~ydrochloric acid, and this acid
Is necessary for proper and complete
digestion. The animal with a rough
ened coat Is one which Is not receiving
proper nutrition, and this improper nu-
triton may sometimes be traced to a
lack of salt in the ration.
Nearly all common foodstufrs are
very low In iodine content" said Mr..
Hart. "The greatest loss resulting from
n deficiency of iodine is in the birth OF
hairless pigs. The goiter region of this
country Is In the Northwest and II In

found that alfalfa hay cured under

The Vanished Limit.

A week later. toward shutdown, the
Sarah came up the half-mile channel
and dropped her hook in Havana har-
Dor close to the old anchorage Of the
Maine. A Royal mailboat passing out
gave her the kick Of its wash as she
settled down to her moorings, a GUS
toms boat dropped alongside. and the
customs men, hailing Satan as a friend
and brother. came aboard and trans
acted business with him in the cabin.
The wind blew warm, bringing scents
and sounds across the vast harbor,
fiuttering the flags of the shipping, and
Radcliffe, standing at the rail, dazzled
by the brilliance of the scene before
him, knew that his cruise was over.
1t vas like coming to the end Of a
book-a volume suddenly handed to
him by Fate to read, and Of which he
vas condemned to write the sequel.

island when he boarded the Sarah first,

mind Of the Haliotis as they had left

1t Pays to Dehorn All
Stock Before Marketing

Dehorned steers or heifers not only
the farm than cattle with horns, but IL
put on the market either as stock
calves. feeders, or finished fat cattle,
will sell for IN average of one-half cent
a pound more. This statement is
made by w. H. Peters of the animal
%husbandry division at University farm,
who says further:
1.-THE best time to dehorn is when
the calf is from ten days to n 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
rubbing the horn and should be held
with a cloth about 1t or with an old
glove or the hand. One application
will suffice on the younger calves. but
after calves are a month old 1t 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 n bearing on the selling
value. On that account. says Mr..
Peters. breeders discriminate severely

Premium Money Used
to Purchase New Seed

Introduced in Nebraska.

prepared By the United States Department
of Agricultural
BY utilizing $40 of the premiums won
by the previous years agricultural e K
hibit at the state fair to purchase
seeds Of crops, vegetables, and melons
on the premium list Of the fair which
were not grown in the county, Keith
county, Neb., last year introduced a
number Of desirable crops Into its
farming system, according to a report
to the United States Department OF
Agriculture.
The seed for each variety, including
many kinds of corn, wheat. oats. bar
ley, rye, and other grain, seed, and for
age crops, tame and native grasses,
potatoes, onions, tomatoes, cabbage,
squashes, pumpkins, melons, root crops,
and miscellaneous field and garden
crops, was divided into foul parts and
one part given free to a volunteer
grower in each of four different sec
lions of the county under condition
that the seed be planted on good soil,
well cultivated, and two samples of
the best of each product furnished for
exhibition at the state fair.
The paintings were carefully
watched and cultivated under the SUI
pervision of the county agricultural ex-
tension agent. When the specimens
were collected in the fall, over 8 ex-
hibits representing more than twenty
crops were sent by the county to the
state fair and later were shown In the
county fair. That farming in the coun-
ty need not be confined to n crop
was demonstrated by the excellent
quality of the products exhibited which
won in individual awards at the state
fair over 100 first premiums, almost as
many seconds. thirds, and fourths COM
bined, and also by the fact that OF the
45O exhibits of products, 1857 were
classed by the judges as good, go as
medium, and hone as poor.
A number of new crops, such as milo,
feterita, orange cane, broom corn, Iowa
oats, and Japanese millet, seem par
ticularly well adapted to the local con-
ditions and are being grown again this
year, according to reports to the De-
partment of Agriculture.

FARM,
LIVE STOCK
Prosperity of Farming
Depends on Live Stock

Live stock provides an outlet for
three-ifths of the crop acreage In the
United States, besides 65,0O0,O0O acres
Of improved pasture, 15O.O00,OO0 acres
Of unimproved grass land pasture, 17Hy-
SOC, o 900 acres of grazing land In the
arid and semi-arid sections OF the
West, according to G. w. McCampbeI-
head of the department Of animal hus-
bandry at Kansas State Agricultural
college. All told. live stock furnished
an outlet for 80 per cent of the total
food and feed produced by tame N
wild vegetation In the United States
Live stock, by utilizing advanta-
geously and efficiently the various
ture and forage crops. makes possible
a system of crop rotation that aids ma
terially In maintaining soil fertility and
controlling plant diseases. insects and
weeds.
Live stock provides, In the form Of
manure, the most reliable and practI-
cal fertilizer that can be used to main
tain soil fertility. The production or
grain takes from the soil large amounts
Of phosphorus. potash and nitrogen
When grain Is sold Off the farm where
produced these elements of fertility
are completely lost. but when grain n
fed to live stock so per cent Of the
phosphorus, potash and nitrogen is re
turned to the soil In the form Of ma
nure. Manure also adds to the soil that
necessary constituent humus which
commercial fertilizers do not.

Easily Digested Feeds
Are Suitable for Ducks

To be suitable for ducks, food must
be soft and easily digestible. such as
meals, grasses, vegetables, and small
scraps Of meat, because ducks do not
have crops like fowls. and the food
passes directly from the mouth through
the gullet into the gizzard. II ducks
are compelled to eat many whole
grains or hard foods Of any kind they
will not be able to get the nourishment
they require for rapid growth. Young
ducklings especially must have soft
and easily digested food, as they grow
almost three times as fast as chicks,
and II they fail to get the proper nour-
ishment they will not grow as they
should. II the fields over which they
are allowed to wander have streams
intersecting them, they will probably
get enough green food on the range
to satisfy their wants. Where the
range Is deficient in green food or
where they cannot be allowed a great
deal of freedom, ducks should be fed
ample quantities Of clover. alfalfa,
fresh grass. and similar foods. These
foods should always be run through a
feed cutter and cut lneo very small
pieces before being fed to the birds.
In addition to this green food breed
ing ducks should be fed twice a day
as much as they will eat of a mash
consisting. by measure, Of a mixture
Of Il parts wheat bran, 4 parts of

The port side of the Sarah was
turned to the entrance of the lagoon,
and into the lagoon was gliding a long,
lean destroyer shearing the %blue-green

The effect was magical. Peace fell

The destroyer had cast anchor Ind
dropped a boat. With the terrible pre-
cision of a hawk of a warship closing
on its prey, she was on to the Sarah.
