Stable Manure Superior
ais Fertilizer in Garden

Perhaps the vegetable crops did not
grow as well as they might have, even
with the weather conditions as they
were This may have been due to lack
of fertility in the soil. 1t is very sell
dom that a well-fertilized garden soil
fails to produce a uniformly satisfac-
tory crop of vegetables.
OF all the garden fertilizers, none is
superior to stable manure.
Stable manure carries nitrogen,
phosphorus and potash, the three
chief elements Of fertility. Not only
does it carry these plant foods, but it
contains decaying vegetable matter
and the bacteria already at work
which makes the decaying vegetation
available as plant food for crops.
Use plenty of manure on the garden.
You will not find a more profitable
place on the farm for the manure. A
ton of well-rotted manure to every
eight square rods of the garden area
is none too much; in fact, some adj
wise still more.
For garden conditions, even better
results are had by supplementing the
manure with about fifty pounds of acid
phosphate to each ton of manure ap-
piled.

Acid Phosphate on
Wheat Is Favored
Mixing With Limestone In
wolves Serious Danger.

Since acid phosphate on wheat is
gaining wider use and with fall spread
ing of limestone on wheat ground be-
ing common practice, the question has
often been asked, whether one might
not mix the limestone and acid phos-
plate and apply these two soil treat
mentS at the same time.
Though labor might be saved by
mixing, such a practice involves seri-
GUS danger. Laboratory experiments
as well as field results show that,
when mixed with limestone, the solu-
BILE phosphorus reverts or changes to
an insoluble form and it's beneficial
effects are largely lost. This change
goes on more rapidly as the amount OF
limestone in proportion to the phos-
plate becomes greater. So, where one
ton of stone is mixed with only one
hundred pounds Of phosphate which
is about the common ratio of applica-
tion-the loss of soluble phosphate is
rapid.
Rather than apply the two in mix
ture, the limestone can be spread
after blowing and worked into the
soil during preparation of the seed
bed When this is done early, as is
commonly recommended, and the phos-
plate put on with the wheat seeding,
the time between the applications is
sufficient to let the lime act partly on
the soil, and the chance for intimate
mixture of lime and phosphate be-
comes so small that the danger is
negligible. Even when the lime goes
on just shortly before seeding there Is
little danger as long as it is worked
into the soil ahead of the phosphate.
In applying these soil treatments 1t
is well to remember that any method
of handling them which prohibits their
intimate mixing avoids the danger OF
reverting the phosphate and losing the
usual profit from its use.

Popularity Of Soy Beans
Increased in Corn Belt

!. is surprising to observe the in
..r hsed acreage Of soy beans. Through
out the South the feeding and fertility
value of soy beans and cowpeas have
been recognized and appreciated, but
recently this new crop has journeyed
into the Corn Belt and through the
Northwest, and demonstrations every
where are serving to extend the plant
ing of this legume. This, too, is in
spite Of the fact that the production
in bushels or the return in dollars and
cents is more or less restricted unless
the soy beans can be sold to concerns
which will extract the oil and market
the residue for feeding purposes.
Straight soy-bean meal is an excellent
supplement to corn and other carbo-
hydrate feeds supplying protein of
good quality, but it never can be re-
lied upon to supply the entire amount
of protein essential for balanced ra-
lions.

Impetus to tuberculosis
Eradication in Indiana

The public post-mortem demonstra-
ton on eleven cattle reacting to the
tuberculin test gave an impetus to tu-
berculosis eradication recently in Wa
bash county, Indiana, according to the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. The reactors were the tubercu-
lous cattle found among 564 head test
ed, representing 46 herds. Eleven
farmers witnessed the post-mortem
examination of the animals which the
inspectors had condemned on the
basis of the tuberculin test.
Every carcass showed LESSONS of the
disease, some of pronounced nature.
The farmers who witnessed the exam
nation expressed satisfaction with the
results and are continuing their work
for the eradication of the disease from
the county under a systematic county
area plan.

Jlll1lB}Y
SOUR MILK PRODUCES
LARGER SIZED EGGS

1t is estimated that approximately
one-half Of the farm eggs marketed
weigh less than % ounces to the
dozen. This condition can be rene
died to a great extent by paying more
attention to the balancing of the ra-
tion to increase the size of the eggs
produced. The poultry department of
the University Of Idaho, at Moscow,
has been working for ten years on
the influence of certain feeds on the
size of eggs produced. During this
period, very definite results have
been obtained 1t has been found
that a combination of wheat, corn
and oats III the scratch ration gave
larger eggs than ration Of wheat
alone, or one in which corn, oats,
barley or peas were used with the
Wheats The grains ranked in their
ability to increase the size of eggs,
when fed with the same dry mash,
as follows: cosn, oats, barley, peas
and wheat. When grains were fed
without dry mash, small eggs re-
suited.
The outstanding results were OBJ
tanned when certain protein feeds
were fed. Pens of single-comb white
leghorns gave much larger percentage
of marketable eggs, when fed sour
skim milk in unlimited quantities than
when, 20 per cent oatmeal, 20 per cent
tankage or 20 per cent peameal were
used in the dry mash. When 20 per
cent peameal was used in the dry
mash and unlimited sour skim milk
given only LIZ per cent of all of the
eggs produced were below % ounces
to the dozen. When an unbalanced
ration was used, containing in the
mash only bran, shorts, cornmeal, and
ground oats, in equal parts 90 $40
per cent of the eggs produced were
below marketable size. Peameal alone,
in the dry mash, did not give any in
crease in the size Of eggs produced
over the dry mash not containing it.
Eighty-five per cent Of the eggs pro-
duced were above standard weight,
when the dry mash contained 10 per
cent meatmeal and unlimited sour
skim milk was given. The cost of
producing the eggs with this ration
was too high, however, and the profits
over feed cost did not justify the use
of the meatmeal. Tankage in the
ration gave larger percentage of
marketable eggs than did meatmeal.
Milk whey does not contain sufficient
animal protein to give the larger eggs.
When dried bfttermilk was given With
peameal, the eggs produced were large,
but the cost of producing was too
high
The largest number of marketable
eggs at the lowest feed cost, resulting
In the greatest profits, have been OBJ
tanned by the use of 20 per cent pea
meal and sour skim milk. -

Kidding Sheep of
Stomach Worms
Seriousness Of Pest Depicted
in Panel Exhibit Giving
It's Life History.

prepared by the United States Department
of AgricuIture.)
A panel exhibit depicting the life
history, damages and treatment of
stomach worms Of sheep, prepared by
the United States Department of Agri-
culture, shows impressively the seri-
BUSINESS of this pest.
Worms Highly Destructive.
1t is shown that stomach worms,
which are common parasites of sheep,
are highly destructive to lambs, and
often wipe out profits from sheep
raising. They cause weakness, scours
and death, and are most prevalent in
permanent pastures. Various ailments
described by such terms as paper
skin" and poverty jaw are caused
by the worms. Fortunately, the
remedy for the stomach worm is sim
pie and inexpensive. Bluestone solu-
ton, properly used, prevents stomach
worm injury. The exhibit describes
also the life history Of the worms and
gives directions for using the remedy.
Improvement in flesh and wool,
stronger and healthier lambs, and
earlier marketability are some of the
benefits resulting from stomach-worm
radiance, says the panel.
May Borrow Exhibit.
Responsible parties agreeing to pay
transportation charges both ways may
borrow the exhibit for limited periods.
applications will be filed in the order
received.
The panel is feet long and feet
4 inches high. The shipping box in
which it comes may be used as a table
on which to display the panel. One
hundred pounds is the shipping weight
of the entire equipment. Further par
ticulars, including literature on the
subject, may be obtained from the

Comfortable Roosts Are
Needed for LAYING Hens

1t is important that the laying hen
have all the opportunity possible to
rest in comfort. For this reason she
should be provided with roost that
is comfortable and satisfies her in
stinct for a rOosting place. OF course
she will perch upon almost anything
at all. provided it is up in the air a
ways and she is able to balance her
self upon it, but she will do better if
some provision is made for her COM
fort and peace of mind. The roosts
should be constructed of good material
and be set up in such q way as to pre-
vent crowding. They saould be con-
tinuously treated to keep them free
from lice and mites and so made that
the hens can rest with absolute COM
fort. They should be well up off the
ground but not so high as to make it
difficult for the birds to get on them.

Practical Methods
of Wintering Bees
Pack Hives in Cases and
Cover With Leaves.

One of the best methods of winter
ing over bees is to pack them in cases,
using leaves, straw or hay. Even oats
may be used Prepare an ordinary
packing box so that it will hold about
two hives. Set the hives so that the
entrance will be clear. That is, ar
range it so that there can be ventila-
ton through the entrance and then fill
the space between the hive bodies and
the packing box with material such as
saWdust, straw, hay, etc. After your
hives are well packed in the packing
boxes, cover the boxes carefully with
roofing paper or something of that ma,
ture to prevent the water soaking in
on the packing material.
A still simpler method, which is
very successfully employed by many
people, is to remove the covers from
the hives and place cloth over the
frame, put on super and I'LL with
straw or chaff. Then place the regu-
lar cover on and tack on good thick
layer of newspapers SO that they cover
the entire hive, except the entrance.
Even cover around the bottom OF the
hive, as well as the sides and top.
Over this good, thick coating of news
paper tack prepared roofing cut to fit.
This roofing may be fastened securely
by means of strips of lath or some
thing of that sort. Or you can use
oilcloth instead of the roofing If you
desire. The object is to keep the
newspapers dry in order to insure
good insulation.

More Light for Poultry
Is Ohio Recommendation

Is your poultry house well lighted?
Poultrymen at the Ohio experiment
station state that an abundance of well
distributed light is essential to the
comfort and welfare Of the flock and
to profitable winter egg production.
Most houses are lighted on the south
side, but the placing of additional
window on the north side under the
dropping boards is comparatively
new idea Of vital Importance.
Since the hen naturally faces the
light when SCRATCHING, the litter ac.
cumulates in dark parts of the build
ing while other parts are left bare and
much of the floor space is rendered
useless.
Probably no other one thing can be
provided in the average poultry house
which will so greatly improve it and
involve so little expense as windows
under the dropping boards to sup
ply light during the winter and VENT
lation in the summer.-Weekly Press
Bulletin, Ohio Experiment Station.

Frost Forecasts
Aid Fruit Grower
Warning Service Saves Crop
and Prevents Unneces-
saHy Burning of Oil.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
The accuracy of frost forecasts
made by the weather bureau of the
United States Department Of Agricul-
ture is Illustrated by results in
typical district where 95 forecasts of
temperature near or below the danger
point were made and distributed. In
81 per cent of the cases the forecast
was correct within 2 degrees Fahren-
hett or less, and in the other cases the
variations were only slightly greater.
Pay for Service.
Fruit growers appreciate this spe-
cial frost warning service by paying
approximately one-half the expense of
it in order to extend the operations
permitted by the funds of the weather
bureau. Information furnished not
only saves fruit but prevents the I'M
necessary burning of many gallons of
oil. The practice of orchard heating
is growing rapidly. There are three
general methods of frost protection:
Conserving heat, stirring the air and
adding heat by means of fires. The
last has proven thus far the most
practical and economical method.
Several trained meteOrOlOgists are
assigned to frost work during the dam
ger period each year in important fruit
districts. This work consists of tenn
perature surveys, the issuing of fore
casts and warnings of frost, expert
mental work as to the most effective
methods of protection, and giving adj
vice to growers. Temperature surveys
are useful not only in regard to show
ing the susceptibility of a locality to
frost owing to its topography, but also
as an aid in selecting orchard sites. In
issuing warnings there is a specially
arranged system of distribution. One
grower may be told to prepare for
firing the latter part of the following
night, and another near by that his
orchard will be in no danger.
Work of Testing.
Experimental and advisory work
comprises the testing, under actual
orchard conditions, of various devices
for frost protection; determining the
relative effectiveness of different kinds
of heaters; testing personally owned
thermometers for use of the growers;
and giving advice as to the proper ex-
posure of instruments in an orchard.

Poultrymen Disagree on
Merits of Drawn Fowls

Poultrymen still discuss the relative
merits of drawn or undrawn poultry.
The practice varies in different COM
munifles. Opening the body undoubt-
edly exposes to the air the internal
surface and thus decomposition is
FASTENED. On the other hand, the Wis
cera decompose more rapidly than
other parts of the body, and If left
in the bird they may faint or infect
the rest of the flesh.
In the long series Of experiments
conducted by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture 1t was found
that undrawn birds spoil the least
quickly and that the fully drawn ones
from which not only the viscera but
the head and feet have been removed,
spoil more quickly than the partly
drawn ones.
