Pittins Potatoes and Root Vegetables.
A good supply Of potatoes or root
vegetables often keep better in pits
out Of doors, than in the cellar or
basement under the house. Many
times the basement is poorly yentil-
ated or IS too warm from the fur
mace.
Pits are easily and eheaply con.
structed. requiring but a little straw
and a good will to use the shovel for
a time. For the home supply one pit
will generally serve for the potatoes
and another for the mixed root veg.
etables such as carrots, beets and
parsnips.
A well drained location should be
chosen and the vegetables piled on
the surface of the ground or a shall
low excavation may be made 6 or 8
inches deep and lined with straw.
The vegetables are best clean and
fairly dry when pitted. The potatoes
or roots are heaped into a conical
pile, though rather than make the pit
too large, which might cause heating
il is better to make a long pile shaped
up like a wedge.
Spread a coating of straw or leaves
over the pile to a depth of 2 or 3
inches and earth over all to a depth of
from 3 to 5 inches. As the weather
grows colder, more earth is added ac-
cording to the severity of the win
ter. In extreme cold weather, 1t may
be necessary to cover with manure.
Every pit should be provided with
ventilation. In the smaller ones the
straw can be extended up through the
center of the earth cone. A board or
piece of tin over the straw which
comes out of the ground will keep
the rain from getting into the pit!
The larger pits should have a small
box flue up through the center. A
ditch should extend around the base
of the pile to carry away surplus wa

GIVE DAIRY COW
MOST CARE NOW
Late Summer Is Danger Period in
Milk PrOductiOn-Need
More Feed.
SENDS STOCK TO SHOW
Full Carload of carnation Holsteins
Ready for Circuit Of
United States.

Safety First" has become the slo-
gan in all places Of danger. The
Safety First" for the dairyman is the
proper feeding methods for the next
two months if he is going to realize
the most profit from his COWS. The
late summer feeding period is the time
when more dairymen neglect their
cows than at any other period of the
year.
In the spring the COWS are turned
out on luxuriant pastures and they
produce better with less care than at
any other period of the year. Then
farmers get busy with summer work
and seem to forget that the ideal con.
ditions of spring have changed in a
few months to the hot months of July
and August. Then the COWS must
Withstand the heat and flies and, as if
that were not enough, short. brown
pastures.
The dairymen turn their cows u
to pasture just the same but seem to
overlook the fact that the short pas
lures no longer furnish sufficient food
to maintain the normal flow of milk.
Not only does this neglect reduce the
production during the late summer
months, but it greatly affects the win
ter production, since 1t is almost i'm
possible to restore the milk flow to its
former level after it has been allowed
to u down due to lack of sufficient
quantity of good feed.
In some cases the dairyman starts
winter milk production with COWS so
reduced in flow that they are practi-
cally "strippers." The best of feed
and care expended on such COWS can
seldom produce much profit for the
owner. The remedy for such cases Is
prevention. At best it is difficult to
keep the flow up to normal in late sum-
mer, so every effort should be exer-
cised in that direction.

Corn for silage must be cut fine and
tramped well in the silo If it is desired
to make the best quality of feed and
fill the silo to its greatest capacity,
says the United States department of
agriculture. The usual length of cut
ting varies from one-fourth of an inch
to l inch. but the latter is a little too
long, as the pieces do not pack so read
lily in the silo, and they are not so
completely consumed In feeding as the
shorter lengths.

In the Improvement of live stock, a
movement which is being accelerated
by various states and the United

through the better sires, better stock
campaign, the sire exerts the greater
influence, but, once the grading-up pro

of well-bred dams must be recognized.
1t is only through the use of pure
bred females that it is possible to pre-
serve and carry on the full value of
coed sires. A pure-bred sire and a
pure-bred dam are necessary to repro
duce a pure bred, which maintains an
unbroken stream of known blood.

What wheat fed to hogs should be
ground to give best results in produc-
ing pork, is the contention of Prof.
Howard Hackedorn of the State Col
lege of Washington. Speaking of tests
recently, he said:
we fed the hogs wheat in ground
form. Cracked or rolled wheat would
be very satisfactory. Soaked wheat
has been fed by some farmers who
claim that this is a very good way to
feed it. This method, however, is more
troublesome. Some of the hard kerr
nels, particularly with the harder va,
rieties of spring wheats. are not mas.
ticated thoroughly by the hogs, and
hence some method of preparation
must be used to gain best results"

Reorganization of the Senate
and House has provoked wide
spread uneasiness among political
leaders. The influx of liberals
and radicals as they are some
times called. are the disturbing
factors. A call has been issued
for a caucus of Senate Republi-
cans for December /, when COM
mittee assignments will be made.
The elevation of Calvin Cool
idge to the Presidency has
brought about a peculiar situa-
ton in the Senate. Senator
Cummings, Republican. of Iowa.
is next in line for the presidency
of the Senate, as he has served
as president protempore and is
entitled to the office. There is
an increase of $4,500 in salary
and other emoluments which
would be welcomed by the Iowa
Senator. However, conservative
Republican leaders having in
mind the control of the Senate
and the approaching 1924 cleo
ton, believe that Senator Cum
ming's laudable ambitions for
promotion must be sacrificed for
the party veal.
Senator LaFollette, of Wiscon-
sin, would succeed the chairman
ship of the all-powerftnl Senate
Committee on Interstate Com
merce if Senator Cummings re-
linquished the post. LaFollette
is VIGOROUSLY opposed to the
railroads and other forms of
corporate enterprise and as chair
man he would be in a position
to embarras conservative Senate
leaders and the administration.
Senator Lodge, of Massa-
chusetts, majority leader in the
Senate, and Senator Curtis, Re-
publican of Kansas, are men,
toned for the presidency of the
Upper House. The LaFollette
bloc" of IL votes, in addition to
the small working margin of the
Republicans, makes the presiding
officer real figure in the voting
on important measures. The
Vice Presidency has always been
regarded as an empty honor, as
the average citizen cannot recall
offhand the names of many Vice
Presidents.
