Lime Spreader Is Most
Useful Farm Implement

When farmers begin to use lime for
sweetening sour soil in order to grow
clover they can well afford to pur-
chase a good lime spreader A lime
spreader will pay for itself in spread
ing a few carloads of limestone be-
cause it will enable the farmer to APP
ply the lime much more evenly and to
gauge it's application more accurately.
Only by so doing will he get the maxi
mum return for the money spent in
lining.
In addition to this a lime spreader
will save a great deal of heavy work
that would be encountered in spread
ing limestone with a shovel or by 9TH
er makeshift means.
Not every farmer needs a lime
spreader because this implement is
only used for a short period each year.
The plan followed in a number of COM
munities is to purchase lime spread
er comparatively. A half-dozen farm
ers can purchase a spreader together
and it will involve only a small invest
ment on the part of each. There viii
be but little difficulty in all of the men
using the spreader satisfactorily be-
cause limestone can be spread at al
most any time.

Information Given on
American Sumac Crop
Domestic Source of Tannin
Never Been Developed.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Detailed information concerning the
kinds Of sumac desired by the extract
makers, the proper methods of gather
ing, harvesting and curing the leaves.
and suggestions for improving the
quality of the article are given in the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture Bulletin 706, American Sumac, A
Valuable Tanning Material and Dye
stuff This bulletin may be obtained
upon application to the department.
Our domestic source Of tannin, the
American sumac, has never been prop
erly developed, say officials of the de-
partment, although American sumae
contains practically as much tannin as
the Sicilian variety. However, owing
to lack of care in gathering and curing
the leaves of this wild plant, which
grows in vast quantities on unculti-
waited land in the eastern and middle
western states, the domestic article
now on the market is inferior in quail
ity and brings lower price than the
imported article. Sumac is used in
tanning light-colored and special leath-
ers but unless the leaves are gathered
at the proper time and properly pre-
pared for market, a darker color than
that desired will be given the feathers
treated with It.

Government Establishing
Experimental Fur Farm

An experimental fur farm is being
established in the northwestern part
of New York state by the bureau of
biological survey Of the United States
Department of Agriculture, in order
that observations and studies may be
made of the habits Of fur-bearing anil
mails and Of the possibilities of grow
Ing them in captivity and producing
fur of good quality. A similar farm
which has been operated by the bu-
reau at Keeseville, N. Y, will be dis
continued as soon as the new one Is
ready The new farm is looted three
and one-half miles from Saratoga
Springs, N. Y, on the state highway
to Corinth and Is more easily Access
sible than the old, both by automobile
and by bus line. The tract comprises
20 acres, of which approximately Is
are covered by an excellent growth Of
timber, and will furnish an ideal stu
alton for the desired purpose.

Carefully Remove Even
Sprouts of Barberries

Removal Of the original bushes of
the common barberry is not by any
means all of the warfare planned
against this ally of black stem rust
Those in charge of the anti-barberry
campaign are sending word to every
property owner who has had the
bushes on his land removed to check
up the former location Of the pest for
any sprouts which may be coming up.
'aThis work should be done before
the leaves appear" says L. w. Me-
lander of Minnesota university farm,
who is representing the government in
the anti-barberry campaign, as the
sprouts are very susceptible to rust
and cause an early infection. De
struction Of common barberry bushes
is of no avail unless their former sites
are checked thoroughly several times
each year for sprouts. Indeed, it may
be necessary to watch for sprouts for
several years.
1.-THE United States Department of
Agriculture and the state university
authorities ask the cooperation of ev-
cry one in the eradication of a pest
which causes millions of dollars of
damage every year."

Comfortable Houses for
Ducks Quite Important

In cold weather ducks should be
Kept in the house because their feet
are so tender that when they come
in contact with the cold ground they
suffer greatly and hobble along as If
their backs were broken. However,
they should not be Kept housed more
than is really necessary.
If the roof is good the rest is easy.
If the weather boarding is not suf-
ficiently close to keep out draughta
in cold weather, cover the outside with
tarred paper or strip with lath.
A boards floor is better than an earth
floor because the ducks will often stir
up the ground in very disagreeable
manner when there is the least sign OF
moisture
Provide suitable houses If you wish
to be successful. The houses need not
be very expensive, but they should be
substantial so that they may be used
for the same purpose several years in
succession.
Ducks both old and young, should
have a dry, comfortable place to stay
in at night. If forced to sit on the
damp ground they are liable to be
taken with cramps and colds in the
head. The latter are almost certain to
turn to Group.
There is usually some shed or build
ing that can be converted into duck
house at small expense. Where only
small flock is kept this plan Is adj
visable.

SEES OPPORTUNITY
FOR TRAINED MEN
Badger Scientist Urges Farm
Boys to Obtain Sound Agri-
cultural Education.

Edges Of the silver lining are begin
ming to appear in the dark cloud which
has engulfed agriculture for the past
several years. Those who are wont to
sing the ''swan song for the farming
Industry and advise the younger gen
GRAFTON to ''hitch their wagons to a
city star" will find little solace in the
words Of II. L. Russell, director Of the
Wisconsin experiment station.
In answer to the question, "Shall a
bow seek an agricultural education to-
day?" he recently answered: IF he is
looking ahead 10 or 20 years yes. If
he is thinking that far ahead, now is
the time to get ready. Ten years from
now it will be too late. But he says to
himself-why an agricultural educa-
ton? He may think that farming IS
now so out of line from the stand
point Of profit when compared with
the returns from other vocations that
even though he is farm-bred and knows
how to gain mastery over the forces
of nature in this field easier than in
any other direction, he hesitates to
prepare for life activity that he now
looks upon as relatively depressed.
Million Leaving the Land.
1.-THE last two years have seen more
than 1,14O,0O0 people leave American
farms to go to the city in response to
the economic situation that has existed.
For the past three years the prices
of farm products have been relatively
low when compared with the products
of manufacturing and industry.
"The slump on all sides during 1920
1922 resulted in widespread unemploy-
ment in the cities. Hundreds of thou
sands Of workmen were idle and there
fore like the farmer had greatly re-
duced purchasing power; however, the
past winter and spring have seen
great expansion in manufacturing in
dustry. Factories are now running full
speed. Labor is fully employed; in
deed a shortage exists and wages are
rising, with the consequence that the
drain from the country to the city is
more pronounced that it has been for
several years.
added to this is the marked restric-
ton in immigration, due to the much
more drastic laws that limit free
movement from war-scarred Europe to
this land of greater opportunity. Where

Government Whitewash"
Best for Outside Work

Whitewash whittier than some, that
lasts well on outside jobs, and that
spreads SO well that pint covers
nearly square yard is being recon-
mended for farm application by the
New York state college at Ithaca I'M
der the name of Government white
wash" The standard recipe given is:
Stake one-half bushel of fresh lime
with boiling water, covering the re-
ceptacle to keep in the steam. Strain
the liquid through a fine sieve, and
add seven pounds Of fine salt, previ-
ously dissolved in warm water; three
pounds of ground rice, boiled to a
thin paste and stirred in; one pound
of white glue, soaked first in cold
water until swollen, then carefully
melted over fire.
To this mixture add five gallons Of
hot water and let it stand covered for
a few days before using.

/ POULTRY
E2S)(JS1|
Convert Old Buildings
into Houses. for Fowl

prepared by the United States Department
Of Agriculture.)
Many farms have old-stylc cl0Sed-up
poultry houses, with poor light and
ventilation, or old sheds and other
buildings Of little use for other pur-
poses, that can be remodeled or built
over with little difficulty into satisfac-
tory poultry houses for the fiocks this
winter. The size and the shape of the
buildings makes little difference, says
the United States Department of Agri-
culture, but the essential factors are
dryness, good ventilation, freedom
from drafts, plenty Of sunshine, and
room enough to allow the birds to move
about with freedom and comfort.
If new houses are to be built or old
buildings converted into poultry
houses, locate them on high or sloping
ground if possible, but always on dry
and well-drained soil. The amount Of
floor space to be allowed each fowl
varies somewhat with conditions, but
on farm or where the birds can be
out of doors nearly every day the de-
partment has found that about pa
square feet Of floor space per bird in
flocks of 20 is enough. In village
or city or in a climate where there
is q good deal of snow, making it nee
essary to confine the birds closely, 4
or 5 square feet per bird is needed.
The interior of the house should be
simple, convenient, and easy to clean.
The converted poultry house may or
may not have a floor. If the house is
on dry, sandy soil dirt floor is usually
quite satisfactory although often more
damp thar board or cement floors.
Fresh gravel and sand must be added
from time to time to keep them sani-
tary. If board floors are used, make
them tight and smooth SO as to make
them dry and easy to clean. If pos
'sible, build board floors or 10 inches
from the ground to allow a circulation
of air and to prevent rats from har-
boring under them. Cement floors, es-
pecially for large houses are quite
satisfactory, as they keep rats out and
last much longer than board floors.
They must be kept well covered with
litter, however, department workers
say, to make them warm and COM
Portable for the flock.

Calcium Arsenate and Acid

A study Of chemical, physical and

ture In order to gain a better under

ton are set forth in new bulletin
just issued by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture as Depart
ment Bulletin 1147.
Paris green and lead arsenate, which
have been standardized and found re-
liable for many years, have consti-
tuted the principal insecticides used
against external chewing insects. How
ever, during the past few years, the
use of calcium arsenate has steadily
increased, owing In part to the discoV-
cry that 1t Is effective in combating
the boil weevil The manufacture of
calcium arsenate although well beyond
the experimental stage in most facto-
ries, probably will not be completely
standardized for several years. Be

Practical Suggestions
on Filling Silo in Fall

In cutting corn and filling the silO
there are many things that can be
done before the actual operation starts.
Here are a few suggestions worked
out by the farm department at Iowa
State college:
See that the corn binder is in good
working order.
Have plenty of good Irvine. It takes
about six pounds to the acre.
Clean out the silo. If there Is stag
nant water in the pit remove it.
See that silo doors are fitted prop
erly. If any are out of shape, have
them ready when the filling starts.
Keep hoops frightened but do not
turn them up so tight that the silo
starts to dish In.
Get the cutter in shape. See that
all bolts are tight and plenty of oil has
been used.
Have a good supply Of sharp knives.
Improper cutting slows up the filling
and makes poor silage.
If silo is party filed with old silage,
scrape off the top part until any
spoiled silage is gone and then put
the new silage on top. 1t will not
hurt either the new or the old.
If corn is too dry, put water in 1t.
If corn is green, water is not needed
unless it is used to pack the silage.

pense and in the majority of cases
may be the deciding factor. The first
months of a calf's life make up the
delicate age or the period when the
greatest caution should be exercised
in it's feeding and care
"How long time calf should be
left with its dam varies with different
caretakers. Some remove the calf af-
ter it has been allowed to suck once;
others leave it with the COW until her
milk is fit to save. The tendency in
high producing herds is to remove the
calf early so that the amount it re-
ceives as well as the completeness of
milking the COW can be regulated.
How Much to Feed.
''It is better slightly to underfeed
calf than it is to overfeed A rough
guide to the amount of milk to feed
calf after it has been taught to drink
is to feed one pound of milk daily to
each ten pounds of live weight. A
calf weighing eighty pounds would,
therefore, receive from eight to ten

understood. Buyers report that in
certain communities where large cows
could be purchased eight years ago,
today cows of the same breed will av-
erage much smaller. These men know
that within any breed, other things
being equal, it is the COW with the
large capacity that is the most eco
nomical producer.
r. s. Hulce Of the wisconsin Col
lege Of Agriculture reports that a
study made Of the relation of size TO
production among Guernsey cows Of
the same age demonstrated that for
the average an increase in production
accompanied an increase in size. Two
hundred and seventy-five mature cows
were under observation and the large
cows outstripped their smaller sisters.
What Limits Good Growth.
Hulce lists a number of other things
which contribute to the development
Of the dairy animal. Some individuals,
he points out, are naturally dainty
feeders and must be pampered or they
will not make good growth. Sick
ness sets some animals back, while
lack of shade in summer, poorly ven
tilated, damp and otherwise uncom-
Portable winter quarters will react in
