Rye Is Most Excellent
Crop to Pasture Swine

Rye probably is the best crop to use.
for fall, winter and spring pasture for
hogs. By putting in successive plant
ings from two to four weeks apart it
is possible to have fresh pasture all
the time. Seeding for pasture should
be much heavier than for a grain crop
from three to four bushels an acre
on good soil. Pasturing probably can
begin six weeks after seeding, and may
continue, if the rye is not covered with
snow, until the following April.
Hog raisers can s'lSill two birds with
one stone by blowing under barn lots
and putting in such crops as rye. In
the first place, hogs need good succu-
lent pasture as much of the time as
possible, and in the second place they
need protection against internal para
sites, such as roundworms, the eggs of
which remain in the SOIL Turning
over the soil in the lots helps to get
rid of the pests, and the crop of for
age makes 1t profitable operation. In
addition to providing cheap protein
feed, pasture crops aid as laxative and
require the hogs to take a certain
amount of exercise which is necessary
to breeding animals and growing pigs.

Sweet Glover Excellent
Pasture for Dairy Cows

Sweet clover makes an excellent
pasture for dairy cows. Much more
feed can be grown on an acre of sweet
clover pasture than on an acre of blue
grass pasture. After the plants get
well started, drought has very little
effect on it's growth. However, sweet
clover will not grow on sour soil and it
will be waste of time and money to
make the attempt unless your land Is
sweet. Better have your farm bureau
test your soil and if it is sour apply
several tons Of ground limestone per
acre.
1t is best to SOW it In the spring
with barley or oats. Usually by about
September the sweet clover will be
about foot high and can then be pas
ture for about six weeks. The next
summer it can be pastured the entire
season. Sweet clover is biannual
and will last only two years. The seed
should be inoculated before it is sown.

Saving Can Be Made on
Feeds Bought in Autumn

Dairymen who must have mill feeds
for their herds next winter should buy
them now and thus save on costs, says
E. A. Hanson, dairy extension special
ist, University Of Minnesota. 1.-THE
practice of purchasing few sacks Of
bran or oilmeal whenever needed Is
poor economy" says Mr.. Hanson.
''The cost of feed is large factor in
f1uencing the profits, and a good saw
ing can be made on ton purchases Of
oilmeal or cotton-seed meal at this
time rather than waiting until the win
ter months are here"

Control Measures for
Flag Smut of Wheat
Several Ways Outlined for
Holding Disease in Check.

prepared by the United States Department
OF Agriculture.)
Flag smut of wheat, a disease that
has been known by it's presence
throughout the world for many years,
was first discovered in the United
States in some fields of wheat In I'LL
nois in 1919. Although the disease has
not caused much loss in the infested
area, the area Is gradually enIarging
and indications are that it may become
serious disease unless adequate con-
troll measures are put into effect. The
symptoms of flag smut aud suggested
control measures are discussed in De-
partment Circular 273, just issued by
the United States Department of Agri-
culture.
Flag smut appears as black stripes
running lengthwise in the leaf and
sheaths of the wheat plant which be-
come twisted and rarely produce
head. Infected plants are usually more
or less dwarfed. The disease may be
held in check and reduced in quantity
by -judicious quarantine measures, seed
treatment, crop rotation and other
sanitary measures, and by growing re-
sistant varieties of wheat through ex-
periments number Of varieties have
been found which are highly resistant
to or possibly even immune from the
disease. 1t is possible that by the use
of such varieties, kept free from sus-
ceptible mixtures, the disease may be
entirely eradicated.
Those interested may secure copy
of this circular free of charge, as long
as the supply lasts, from the Depart
ment of Agriculture, Washington.

Proper Amount Of Salt
to Give Producing Cow

The COW producing an average
amount of milk, requires at least an
ounce of salt a day. A safe rule to follow
is to allow three-fourths of an ounce
daily for each 1000 pounds of live
weight and an additional three-fourths
Of an ounce for each ten pounds Of
milk produced. Missouri College Of
Agriculture dairymen follow this rule.
Many feeders mix three-fcurths of
an ounce Of salt with each 100 pounds
of grain fed and then allow the cows
free access to salt where they cen eat
all they want.

In Cooling Milk Entire
Mass Must Be Stirred

In cooling milk it isn't sufficient to
Just set the can Of milk in tub OF
cold water. The milk must be stirred
thoroughly until the entire mass of
milk Is about the temperature of the
water When the milk is not stirred,
the milk in the center Of the can is
not affected by the cold water until
the bacteria have had an opportunity
to increase greatly in numbers and as
result the whole mass Of milk sours.
The milk in contact with the container
win be cooled, but that isn't sufficient.

Sweet Clover Is Best of
Different Honey Plants

Score another for sweet clover which
not so long ago was regarded as nox-
fous roadside weed Sweet clover is
the greatest honey plant in the United
States, according to G. G. Matthews Of
Illinois university's division Of bee Gull
ture, who points out that the several
varieties of the plant furnish success
sive bee pasture from spring until
frosts in the fall.
"The yellow biennial comes along
about the time dandelions go out OF
bloom" says Mr.. Matthews, "and so
tides bees over the critical period just
before the blooming of white clover.
The white biennial blooms after white
clover and lasts well into August. HUI
BAN, the white annual, begins to bloom
soon after the first of August and con-
tinues until killed by frost. The bee
keeper can keep a constant honey flow
in his community if he can but per-
suade the farmers around to grow all
three varieties of sweet clover"
Mr.. Matthews tells of an Illinois bee
keeper who furnished sweet clover
seed to farmers when it was 50
pound until there were more than 400
acres within reach of his bees. From
this acreage he received share of the
seed crop and many tons Of honey.
Some of his colonies yielded, nearly
500 pounds.
"Grow sweet clover" is Mr.. Nat
thews' advice to beekeepers. Furnish
seed to your neighbors, study methods
of getting it started and persuade road
supervisors to leave it standing along
the roadside"

Master Of His Art.

A characteristic story of Sir Chris
topher Wren, the famous architect, is
still told in the town of Windsor where
he erected the town hall in the royal
borough. When the charming little
building, designed with the architects
utmost skill, was finished, the counsel
lors met him on the spot to inspect
and criticize. Several pointed out that
the pillars in the lower part Of the
building did not appear stout enough
to support the council chamber above.
Whereupon Sir Christopher called for
ladder and a sheet Of paper. Mount
ing the ladder he slipped the sheet Of
paper through an imperceptible space
that lay between the upper portion of
each columns capital and the ceiling
above. Mystified but content the coun-
cillors are said to have waived all
further objection.

LABOR'S AIMS
WELL STATED
Objects of the American Fedora
ton Set Forth in No Un-
certain Way.
FIRST, SHORTER WORK DAY
Movement Constructive Rebellion
Against Unfair and Unscientflc
Economic Theories, and Ap-
peaIs to All Wage Farmers.

Probably the ideas and aims of the
American Federation Of Labor were
never more ably presented than in the
following brief statement taken from
the columns Of a contemporary devOt-
ed to the cause:
The American Federation of Labor,
the most influential and successful or
ganization of wage earners ever In ex-
istence, has long stood committed to
the shorter work day and a specified
rest day each week.
For more than three decades it has
been organizing discomfort and con-
structive rebellion against unfair and
unscientific economic theories, and as
a result over 100000 wage earners
are enrolled for this cause.
Wherever you find efforts put forth
to aid the cause of greater freedom
and humanity there you will also find
the highest paid organized wage earn
ers giving their active support. The
greatest social reforms that have been
accomplished had their inception and
inspirations in the unions of labor.
We want to be equal sharers in the
good things which an unseen hand has
distributed over this fair land Of ours.
We want to raise the standard of
living where all men have equal ac-
cess by labor to the storehOuses OF
wealth.
We want the time to improve OH
minds and thus increase our influence
in governmental affairs to the end that
the wage earners may themselves de
eide whether or not they Shall be Ge-
ployed as pswns in the volcanoes of
war.
We want che right of free assem-
blage, free speech and free press.
We want the right to organize unite
and federate that we may meet the
employers Of tabor on equal terms in
the establishment OF wage, regulation
of hours ana conditions of employ
ment.
We wanl real equity before the law
for our organizations and the wage
earners as individuals.
we w ant W uO lllc WOIh Dul
we insist that the distribution of the
results of our efforts shall be equita-
BILE, and we shall insistently besiege
our opponents until we wiring from
them our rights.
We want time to live, time for self
Improvement, and time to contemplate
the glorious works Of creation, and
time to adore the great Creator
Our opponents, in their endeavors
to stay the progress toward bright
er day for the wage earners, assert
that the organized workers do not rep
resent the vast majority Of the toilers,
but we answer that our federation
does represent the best interests of all
wage earners, as do likewise the relig-
ious institutions represent religious
thought, even though their .commu-
nicants comprise but fraction\ Of the
population.
