the government printing Office
Friday, contained 20s solid pages
Of speeches. the big percentage of
which were never uttered on.the
floors Of the Senate and House,
and cost the taxpayers more than
$4,000. exclusive of postage.
Senator Thomas Hefin of Ala
bama probably got the greatest
personal benefit from this gratui-
tous printing by Uncle Sam of
speeches for "home consumption"
There were approximately fifty
solid pages in that one issue of the
Record put in by Senator Heflin,
or nearly one-fourth of the entire
extraordinary bulk, and as each
page costs Uncle Sam at least $50
1t Is easy to figure that Senator
Hef1in alone got the benefit of
about $4,000 through leave to

Each senator receives eighty
eight copies for free distribution
and each House member sixtysix

government pays the postage. OF

Most Effective Remedy
for Intestinal Worms

From our experimental work, we
have found the best treatment for
worms Is as follows: Make up q wet
mash of bran or some similar ground
feed and into this put some ordinary
smoking tobacco; that is. the finely
ground tobacco. This should be used
ut the rate of Il pound to one hundred
birds. Before giving the wet mash TO
the birds, / would starve them for a
feeding or two. so that they will be
sure TO consume the mash. | would
give two feelings, one each on sue
cessiye days and then on the third
day, follow this with some epson salts,
also dissolved and mixed In with a
wet mash, at the rate of n pound OF
salts TO one hundred birds. We have
found this to be the most effective
treatment for intestinal worms-H.

Practical Suggestions
on Storage of Potatoes

The purpose of storage Is to hold
potatoes In a marketable condition IN
I'll they are in demand by the con-
sumner. In order that this be done,
potatoes must be protected from ex-
IRENE heat and cold. from excessive
moisture, and from light IL once
frozen, potatoes are unfit for market
However, they should be stored at a
temperature sufficiently low TO pre-
vent termination. and to hold fungus
growth In check. Potatoes are not as
perishable as apples. A temperature
OF 40 degrees r. VIII keep potatoes In
good condition, except that dry rot In
lection may occur. For this reason 1t
is best to store potatoes at a tempera-
ture of 35 or 36 degrees F.. The pres
OF light will seriously injure the
quality of potatoes.

Small Quantities of
Borax Not Injurious


prepared by the United States Department
of Agricultural
Exhaustive experiments with varf
GUS crops under widely varying soil
and climatic conditions. made by the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. have proved that borax LIS detri-
mental TO plant growth when applied
In quantities varying from 4 to 20
pounds 10 the aer,. and larger quanti-
ties produced progressively greater in
jury. Smaller quantities, three pounds
or less per acre. produced very little
II any effect and were. In fact. slightly
stimulating to certain crops in some
Instances. While the harmful amounts
of from 4 TO 20 pounds and eve
higher occurred In certain fertilizers
during 1919. these have no special prac-
teal application to present condition.
since there Is not enough borax in any
American potash on the market to
make such applications possible.
American potash from Searles lake.
California. the commercial output OF
which contained borax in 1919. has now
undergone such changes In its method
of manufacture that Ii contains only
very slight quantities of borax; a max
imum not to exceed one-half of / per
cent being guaranteed by the manufac-
turers. Five hundred pounds of a fer
tilizer carrying 5 per cent OF potash
will contain only o. o. a pound of
borax; 1900 pounds would contain 0A
of a pound Of borax, anu even a ton
would contain only 0.S of a pound.
Similarly. a ton of a fertilizer carrying
as high a potash content as 10 per cent
would contain only i.6 pounds of borax-
Even such heavy applications as a

supply only such quantities OF

Promising Forage
Crops introduced
It's Winter Hardness Makes
1t Worthy of Extended
Trial in Corn Belt.

Prepared By the United States Department
of Agricuitsrs.b
Hungarian vetch. Is one OF the many
promising forage crops introduced In
the United States by the Department
Of Agriculture. First Importatlons OF
seed were made In 1905. but 1t was not
until 1912 that the strain being de-
yelOped at the present time was
brought over from France The crop
has been most extensively tested In the
Pacific Coast states, where 1t is espe-
cially well adapted. but 1t has also done
well in experimental tests in the
Southern states. Its winter hardness.
resistance to aphids. good seed habits.
and adaptation to poorly drained lands
make II desirable for extended trial
throughout the Cotton Belt the depart
ment believes.
Thrives on Wet Soil.
Hungarian vetch is much less why
than common vetch or hairy vetch.
One OF Its most striking character
istlcs is Its ability to grow on heavy
wet lands and still produce a fair crop.
While there have been no feeding tests
to determine the relative value of Hun
garian vetch as compared to other
~yetclIes and hays, dairy COWS at the
experimental station at Corvallis, Ore,
consumed 1t readily. The crop
also makes a good pasture and Is val
liable as q green anu crop.
Best limo for Sowing.
Hungarian vetch should be sown In
the fall In all regions having mild
winter conditions. In regions having
severe winters, however, fall planting
is impractical and paintings made as
early In the spring as the ground can
be worked will give the best results.
Seed is being produced In western Ore
gOn, and at present this Is the only
place where 1t is being grown. The
States Department OF Agricul-
ture has at present none of this seed
for general distribution.

When seed corn has been selected

best method of storing this seed will
be so hat each ear has free circula-

done by tying with string or Irvine on
lath racks or by a number Of other
methods.
