Artificial Lights VIII
Increase Egg Production

Addition of extra windows, particn-
larry near the floor will allow pore
light to enter the houses in the early
evenings of winter and keep the
chickens from going to roost.
This addition will increase the
length of the day for the chickens and
have a good result on egg production.
Many poultrymen have installed
electrical apparatus in the poultry
houses so that lights can be turned on
in the early morning to get the poul-
try to scratching and feeding earlier.
The lights can also be kept on in the
afternoons with better production re-
suits.
The difference in the number Of
eggs produced will more than pay the
additional costs Of increased light.

Multiplication Table Is
Still Handy for Farmer

The farmer still has use for the
multiplication table, despite the ups
and downs in the agricultural situa-
ton, according to some figures just
issued by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. For example, the
output Of skim milk powder has
doubled in the last five years; the
number of cow-testing associations has
beNn doubled In the last six years; the
qutNtity of ice cream produced has
doubled in the last IL years.

seemed in remarkable good spirits.
''You seem happy" remarked the
doctor as the student came up to him
with laugh and skip.
"Who wouldn't be?" was the reply.

Fresh Corn Slower Most
Palatable to Live Stock

Fresh corn slower is palatable, but
after it has been exposed to the
weather for few months it loses
much of it's palatability and should not
be depended upon to supply very
much, If any, nutrients to the cow. 1t
is better when the slower Is needed as
a feed to ensile it, for in the silo it
will keep more palatable, larger por-
ton of it will be consumed, and better
results will be obtained by feeding it.
Corn slower should be looked upon as
a reasonably good. dry carbonaceous
feed, but should be fed in limited
quantities because Of its low protein
content.

Profit in Sweet Glover
to Every Owner of Bees

In the bee business there is no profit
in box-hives or gums; nor in shift
lessness; nor in cultivating honey
plants just for bees. However, the
sweet clovers, both white and yellow,
and others, grown also for soiling
crops or forage will pay you well.
Sweet clover along railroads, bank
ings, ditch lines, fence rows and the
like will not prove weed but a profit
to every farmer having bees.
