MELLON sPoNGING sLATES

The apparent deficit with which
the treasury will be confronted on
June 80, at the end of the fiscal year,
is now set at $4,000, 900. But tR2re
are various facts which indicate that
it will entirely disappear before the
receipts for the first quarter of the
year have run substantially beyond
the previous estimates of the treas
ury, and it is reasonable to suppose
that the receipts for the second quar-
ter, payment of which is due on June
Is, will also be in exces Of predic-
tons Word has also been received
that a payment of $69, 900 900 is like
ly to be received from Great Britain
on June Is. Under the debt settle
ment, the British have a right to de-
fer one-half of their interest charge
for the first five years, the amount
to be added to the principal, but it
is understood that the privilege will
not be awaited of this year. These
are some of the largest items that
will aid in cutting down the deficit.
Others of less Importance will con
tribute to the total, and it is highly
probable that the next fiscal year
will start with a clean slate.

DYNAMITE USED IN
CLEARING UP FARM

For all around purposes on the av-
erage farm only two types of dyna-
mite out of a great many when are
manufactured need to be considered.
One of these types is represented BY
Dumorite and by 20 per cent low
freezing ammonia dynamite or Red
Cross Farm Powder, which are both
explosives of relatively low strength
and slow action. Dumorite and Red
Gross Farm Powder are adapted tor
-rN~r'~ally every kind OF work around
the farm, such as blowing out stumps
and boulders; loosening up hard
packed soil for tree planting; re-
juvenating old orchard trees by shak-
ing up the soil around their roots;
breaking through imperviOus strata
like hardpan or cemeted gravel,
which prevent free drainage into the
sub-soil from the surface; and for
sub sOiling to prevent erosion and
washing away of the surface soil in
rolling land. The other type of eX-
plosive is low freezing straight dyna

generally best for farm work. This
is an exceedingly powerful, quick
acting and SCATTERING dynamite,
which is used for blasting bitches
through swampy ground where no
other method of procedure would be
possible. This ditching by the prop
agation method is a very fascinating
subject and will be taken up in detail
later.
Dynamite is a decorating explosive
that is, it cannot be fired by a spark
alone, but requires a device known
as a blasting cap in order to d~etOnatC
it.. These blasting caps are sma'
copper cylinders . about half FILLED
with a very powerful and sensitive
composition, usually illuminate Of
mercury, which is fired by fuse.
Another kind Of blasting cap made
is called an electric blasting cap
This is similar to the one first de
sc1ibed except that it has two cop
per wires running into it which art
connected together in the explosive
composition by another very fin
wire, which becomes heated VI wnltl
heat by the passage of an electri
current and thus fires the cap.
The blasting machine is very nue.
safer to use than any kind of DIR.

STOP UNFAIR PRACTICE
AT SALES

1t has long been the practice. of
some commission firms at the live
stock marketing ceuters to make
what are called "string sales" Sew
eral head of livestock belonging to
different owners would be sold In one
transaction at one price and the COM
mission firm would then arbitrarily
place prices on the different lots.
Through such a. practice an individual
shipper frequently would not receive
a fair price for his livestock.
This was one of the early problems
confronting the packers and stock
yards administration of the United
States Department of Agriculture,
charged with the duty of supervising
the meat-packing industry and the
agencies at the livestock markets.
Investigations resulted in issuing in
structions prohibiting the practice of
String Sales" except under certain
safeguards. Provision was made,
however, for such cooperative sales
of livestock of several owners as are
authorized.
Another undesirable practice which
is being corrected by the packers and
stockyards administration is that OF
marking up" A commission mar
would sell a number OF animals OF
different grades at one price, and
then himself adjust the prices to the
shippers for various grades This
was a deception upon the shipper as
to the real selling price and gave the
commission merchant an opportunity
for unfair advertising of his safes re
suits. The livestock supervisors ar
requiring all firms to report true
sales prices, which does away will
the practice of marking up" Thu
does not prevent commission firm
from ~prorating on cooperative ship
ments when properly instructed b,

. so.

COAL TAR PRODUCTS
FOR POULTRY MITES

Of all parasites affecting poultry,
ordinary poultry mites are probably
the most troublesome and destructive,
unless kept under control. Unlike
the lice, poultry mites are blood
sucking parasites and live entirely on
the blood of the fowl. They are very
small and when not filled with blood
are gray in color and are called gray
mites. However, when they have
been on the body of the fowl and
filled themselves with blood they
look red and are called red mites.
They do not stay on the fowls body
all the time, like lice, but during the
day hide away in cracks and crew
ices, behind boards that are neal the
roosts, in the cracks of brood coops,
and in other places. At night when
the fowls and chicks go to roost the
mites come out of their hiding places
crawl onto the birds, and suck the
blood from their bodies. The irri-
tation and loss of blood causes ma
ture fowls to become pale in comb and
WdJCleS anu pOOT III lleSH, S1CIinS
hens may desert their nests and spoil
their eggs, i. they do not die on the
nests, and chickens become weak and
droopy and in many instances die
from the attacks.
J Since poultry mites hide away in
( cracks and crevices during the day
the first thing that should be done u
| get rid of them is to give the poultry
houses, roosts, nests, etc., a good
cleaning. After the cleaning, spray
thoroughly with kerosene, crude oil
or some effective coal tar prepare
ton, making sure that the spray
reaches all the cracks and crevice:
and every other place where the mite;
might be hiding. This coal-tar prep.
aration is most effective and lasts
longest. 1t can be purchased local
ly with full directions for mixing an,
use. 1t is necessary to spray thor
oughly and often, especially during
warm weather, if the mites are to h
kept from annoying the fowls.

MODERN BEEKEEPER
uses new METHODS

The keeping of bees is an ancient
branch of agriculture, yet modern
Bookkeeping is a new thing. Many
persons still enormously think that
bees work for nothing and board
themselves, and that to keep bees n
simply gets some bees and allows
them to roam at will. The present
day bee-keeper controls the develop
ment of the colony population so as to
have a full force of gathering bees
at the right time, and then prevents
a division of this force by swarmlng.
By these and other methods he great
ly increases the amount of honey
gathered. The modern skilled bee
keeper finds bees far more product
i've than did his predecessors because
of his ability to change conditions
and adapt them to the natural hab-
it's of the bees.
While not all parts of the clover
region are equally good for b~ee-keep-
ing, there are few places where ii
is not possible to keep bees with
profit under proper management
Opportunities for Bookkeeping in
this region, however, are not utilized
as completely as in some other part:
of the country. Vast areas of the
clover region are not adequatef!
covered by bees, and in many places
the methods of Bookkeeping practices
fail to produce the best crops posi-
BILE.
Bookkeeping to be profitable In tn
clover region must be conducted wit
great skill, and there are not suffi
cient ~bee-keepers with n rlgn
amount of skill to cover this terri.
tory. A drawback to the adequat
I development of the clover region lie
in the fact that there are thousand
of persons owning a few colonies {
, bees who give them little or no a
tention and who get practically 7
5 honey, and these bees serve to occ'
py territory, while if they were
the hands of good ~bee-keepers the
might be adding to the nations no
. ey supply. The spread of the bro'
. diseases is serving to change tn
q condition, for the number of persoi
z owning bees in the clover region
y decreasing.
