Satisfactory Scheme to
DESTROY Stomach Worms

Perhaps the most satisfactory way
Of eliminating stomach worms Is to
give the horse twice dolly with his
grain feed a heaping tablespoon Of a
mixture consisting Of equal parts Of
powdered gentian and ferrous sui
plate. Continue this treatment for
FIVE or six days. At the end of this
period purge the horse, either by
means Of a physic ball, which you can
obtain from your veterinarian, or give
him a bran mash and some legume
hay without the usual allowance of
grain. II this treatment fails to pro-
duce the desired results during the
first period, repeat it after an interval
Of three or four days. Give the horse
n comfortable bed, and do not per-
NIT him to eat too much hay.
A grain ration consisting of five
parts OF oats, two parts of cornmeal
with a sprinkling Of linseed meal, two
parts Of bran, makes a useful mixture
for horses. The grain should be de-
creased on idle days and increased on
working days.

Care of Mare and Colt
Needed in Fall Months

1t is an old saying that animals going
to winter quarters in good condition
are half wintered. 1t is particularly
true Of brood mares and colts. The
bleak winds and cold rains of the fall
months, together with the chilly nights.
take more out of animals than months
Of feeding will restore. This is particu-
larly true Of brood mares that are low
in condition and of the young colts.
They should be stabbed every night
from now on. and should be fed a small
feed before being turned out in the
morning to fh up with cold or frozen
grass, which is very liable to chill and
even stop. the work Of digestion. 1t
never pays to let mares and colts
stand around shivering during the cold
autumn nights and then attempt to
make up by extra feed during the win
ter. Protect the mare and keep the
colt growing. If results are wanted.

Concrete Highways Are
Help in Marketing Milk

Milk is an everyday commodity.
The most important feature in market
ing milk is to be able to deliver it as
soen as possible after it is produced.
On that item depends the success or
failure Of the dairying industry. 1t is
a well-known fact that in the loca-
lions where the dairying industry is
most successful, the community Is
served by a network of permanent
highways, disable every day In the
year.
Such a location is found In western
Washington where nature has proyid-
ed vast of green pasture land
and man has built hundreds of miles
Of broad concrete highways, thus pro-
ducing the combination which makes
possible the production and the trans
portation of this vital, everyday neces-
sity.
About twenty years ago a large
milk products company constructed a
small condensery at Kent, in western
Washington. From this small begin
ming the enterprise grew until at the
present time eight large condens-
cries are established, and these are
located in communities where paved
highways furnish quick and reliable
transportation facilities from the farm

Pure Bred Gifts
to Improve Hogs
Illinois Expert Says Farmers
Can Well Afford to Buy
at Present Prices.

Seldom have farmers had such a
splendid opportunity to, improve their
herds Of hogs, points out e. T. RUs-
bins, of the Illinois University extern
sion service, who suggests that at
present prices farmers can we'll afford
to buy pure bred gifts for breeding
purposes, even though they do not ex-
pect to go into the pe~digreed hog busi-
Tess.
Pure bred gifts are selling at bar
gain prices" says Mr.. Robbins. Zone
can buy them for q triie more than
the market value of grade hogs. There
is the best opportunity ever presented
to replace common sows with pure
breds. The grade gifts can be fat
tened and shipped to market and the
proceeds will buy nearly as many
good pure bred females. Ia some
cases, a drove Of old sows can be sold
and the money received will buy more
than the same number Of registered
gifts.
Bring Top Prices.
eff the farmers generally appreci-
ated the genuine value Of pure bred
hogs, such bargains would not be pos
sible. Most Of the ton filters are pure
breds and all the others are high
grades. The hogs which secure top
market prices are usually pure bred
or nearly so. Pure breds are credited
with being fully 40 per cent more efi-
cient money makers than grades and
scrubs, according to reports sent to
the United States Department of Agri-
culture by hundreds Of stockmen. In
face of these facts, it is astounding
to note any Indifference to pure breds
on the part of farmers.
Even though one does not plan to
engage in pedigree breeding, an In
yeStment in pure bred females at
present prices will pay handsomely.
In the last three years, many hard
headed, experienced pork producers
have bought pure bred sows and gifts,
and turned them out to raise pigs for
the stockyards market. They merely
regarded the pedigrees as a guarantee
Of inherited excellence, and made no
further use of the registry certif-,
Gates. Gifts were bought at $40 to SOS,
per head more than the price of
grades, and handled in this way.
Period Of Depression.
1.-THE hog business is passing through,
a period Of depression. A revival Of
business and higher prices has al
ways followed In a few years. A
farmer can establish a hne foundation
herd now at moderate cost and be
ready to reap profits by the sale Of
the offspring in years to come. This Is
a much wiser policy than buying pure
breds at the crest Of a boom and then
In disgust shipping the offspring onto
the stockyards market in a time Of de-
preston such as the present"

Improbable Producers
Should Be Fowls to Eat

(Prepa red by the United States Department
of Asricultare)
Ability to choose between the laying
hen and the n%onlayer Is easily devel-
oped by poultry owners and should
be put into practice In culling the
flock If the best returns in both eggs
and meat are to be had. In any flock
some hens will be found which are
such poor producers that they are un-
| profitable, and these should be the
ones to eat.
All hens mott in the fall or early
winter. This melting characteristic is
easily observed and, when it starts to
take place, means that the hen has
about finished her laying season and
is turning her attention to growing n
new crop of feathers for a vacation be-
fore she starts her next years work.
If it is desirable to use a part of the
flock for meat, says the United States
Department Of Agriculture, the early
molters are the ones to select for eat
ing first because they are laying very
few or no eggs during this melting
season which usually lasts about three
months. The hens in the flock should
not be killed until they begin to mott
and their combs begin to lose size, col
or and flexibility, for If these changes
have not taken place the hens will
probably still be laying when eggs are
especially valuable.
AS a rule hens Of the general-purpose
breeds are not profitable layers after
they are two years old. and Leghora
hens rarely lay prof1tably after three
laying years. Many of the hens should
be culled before they reach these ages
and replaced by well-matured pullets
in the fall.

Oyster Shell Required
by Egg Producing Hens

Oyster shell should be kept con-
stantly before laying hens. Expert
ments show that fowls Will draw lime
from the body skeleton If oyster shell
is not obtainable In sufficient quanti-
ties.
That oyster shell Is an essential
part of the feeding ration and that
1t should be kept before fowls con-
tinuously Is clearly shown In the fol-
lowing excerpt from circular II Of the
West Virginia experiment station, en-
titled, Feeding for Egg Production,
by Prof. Horace Atwood:
"A relatively large amount Of lime
is required In the formation Of egg
shells. Wheeler found that crushed
oyster shell when fed to laying hens
was the principal source of the lime
present in the sheAs, and be advised
feeding oyster shell, especially during
the laying season. That his cohclu-
sions were correct is indicated by THE
almost universal lie Of oyster shell
for this purpose. One pound Of oyster
shell will furnish lime for about seven
dozen eggs.
"In a recent investigation Halpin
finds that, contrary to popular belief,
a lack Of calcium or lime in the feed
has not caused the production of soft
shelled eggs, the hen apparently draw
ing on her skeleton for the needed
calcium. Soft-shehed eggs, therefore,
appear to be due to some pathological
condition rather than to a lack Of cal
cium in the feed. A scant supply of
calcium seems to decrease egg produc-
ton. This result Is important from
the practical standpoint, since many
poultry ~raisers. believing that soft
shelled eggs indicate a lack Of cal
cium, do not feed oyster shells unless
their hens lay soft-shelled eggs. 1t is
thus possible that a lack of egg pro-
duction during the late winter months
may be due to a lack Of sufficient cal
cium.
"Since oyster shell Is relatively
cheap and since fowls need lime from
this or a similar source, at least when
they are laying, 1t is good practice to
keep a supply constantly available"

LIVE
STOCK
Practical Suggestions
for Producers of Beef

N. X. Carnes of the animal hus-
bandry division of the University of
Minnesota offers several suggestions
to producers Of beef as to how to i'm
prove their position in these times of
narrow margins and high taxes. He
says beef producers can get larger re-
turns by:
Producing what the market demands.
Marketing through cooperative as
sociations.
Investing the minimum of capital
only In buildings and equipment.
Keeping good typed animals rather
than scrubs.
Providing good pasture, and
Feeding comparatively inexpensive
rations during the winter.
Mr.. Carnes lays emphasis on feeding
and type. Good cattle command a
premium on our live stock markets"
he says. Good typed animals do not
consume less feed than the scrub, but
they make more economical use of 1t.
The bureau of animal industry main
tains that a steak from a high-class
beef animal contains 40 per cent more
food value than does a steak from a
scrub"
MI. Carnes holds that feeds for win
tering the breeding herd need not be
expensive. Silage supplemented with
dry roughage and some protein con-
centrate will carry beef animals along
economically, Il the dry rOughage
consists of a legume hay the protein
concentrate can be omitted from the
ration. Under some conditions" he
says, sit might be more economical to
sell part of the legume hay and substi-
tute for 1t the cheaper roughages with
some highly concentrated protein feed.
Relative prices should determine"

Before weaving it is advisable to

Paved Highways Furnish Quick and
Reliable Facilities for Handling Milk.

to the condensery. Every day, winter
or summer, rain or shine, hundreds of
trucks are seen carrying milk from
the farms to the plants.
Before the concrete highways were
constructed, milk was hauled to the
~cOndensery by teams. By ~relaying
teams it was possible to haul milk
every day but the difficulties encoun
tered and the time consumed by this
method were great. The lead was
hauled part way by one team, which
when exhausted was replaced by a
fresh team for the remainder of the
trip. Only small loads n possible,
$500 pounds or 40 cans. being consid.
cred a big load on unimproved roads.
As the condition Of the roads i'm
built, trucks s%uppianted teams and
routes were extended, until at the
present time approximately IS per
cent Of the milk received is transport
ed by truck. Some trucks cover two
or three routes, each of which former

milk In less time and haul larger
loads. A comparison of two routes
serving the Chehalis plant demon
strates the value of paved highways.
One Is an eight-mile route over poor
roads and covered by a team the 9TH
err is a 25mile route over concrete
roads and is covered by a truck. Both
routes start on their journey at the
same time. The truck, covering % miles
and delivering 100 cans of milk ar.
riyes at the cOndensery about $685..
m. The team, covering only eight
miles and delivering so cans, arrives
about ten O'Clock.
To market his milk the farmer needs
only to set out his cans on a platform
by the roadside. Along comes. the
truck over its established daily route,
picks up the milk at the farmers gate,
delivers 1t to the plant and returnssthe
empty cans on the return trip. By
this system alone is it possible for
many farmersst market their milk.
Most farmers do not produce enough
milk daily to warrant the trip to town
with the milk, and for these farmers
1t would be Improbable to bother with
milk production If the milk routes
were MOI established.
The hauling cost to the farmer
varies with the distance his mik is
hauled and with the condition of the
road over which 1t is transported
Over paved highways the rate per hun
dredweight is n~oticeably less than
over unimprOved roads.
Among the most important items in
milk hauling is the length of time the
milk is on the road. Especially is this
true. In the summer time. Milk deliv-
cred by truck is always in better
shape when 1t arrives at the condens-
cry than milk delivered by wagon.
