Net Fair to the Fish.

The Mississippi river m~isbehaves In
spring, as residents near it know to
their cost. Its waters spread out
far and wide over the adjacent coun-
try, and millions of fish go with them
Soon the stream subsidies, and these
fish are left to die, as the shallow
pools that are formed by the reced-
ing waters dry up or freeze. The
service sends but SEEMING parties,
which follow down the diminishing
river and rescue the fish from the
pools and either restore them to the
stream or distribute them to other
waters. In 1919 more than 10O,OO0,0O0
fish were thus saved. Twenty fish
hatcheries could not produce fish
equal in number and size to those
rescued. Their cash value at the
rates charged by commercial hatch
cries exceeds the total appropriations
of the government for the fish cul-
tural service.-William G. Redfeld, In
The Outlook.

HOG PRODUCTION INCREASES

AAO0
1t is quite evident that with the
increase of the corn acreage in Roo
sevelt county, there will be a con-
slant increase in hog production, as
has been practically and thoroughly
demonstrated this year.
Already Roosevelt county has
shipped 21 carloads of hogs from its
shipping points, and it is expected
that there are at least IA more to
go to market. This will be an in
crease of 80 carloads over any pre-
vious year, and a realization of the
fact that this industry is growing
and will continue to grow.
There is also a large number Of
breeding stock being held over an
other year, and it is estimated there
will be a substantial increase next
year, if proper precaution is taken.
This county has experienced time
and again enormous losses of pigs at
narrowing time, due to the fact that
iodine treatment was not used to
oreveah the pigs from being born
hairless. Iodine treatment is a sure
preventive of this disease if started
Early enough, and now is the time
o start. Full information regard
NC potassium iodine can be secured
" writing the county agents office.

TO GET RID OF JACK RABBITS

In communities where jack rab.
bits prove a menace to the crops and
stored feed, a very effective method
of control can be worked out by fol
lowing a few simple directions and
taking some precautions for doing
the work. This method has been
demonstrated to be very effective
in the winter time when the ground
was covered with snow:
On ounce of strychnine sulphate is
dissolved in two gallons of warm
water. A bundle of green oats is
used by dipping the heads into this
solution until thoroughly soaked,
then taking the bundle out in a
field where no stock can get at it,
and hanging it up on a fence or by
means of making a tripod out of
fence posts. If green oat sheaves
are not available, rye, wheat or al
falfa are very successful. If strych-
nine sulphate cannot be secured at
the drug store, strychnine alkaloid
powder can be used by d%issolving
one ounce to seven quarts of water
and one cup of vinegar, one cup of
salt added in the form of brine, to
gopher poison oats, can also be used
as jack rabbit poison.
Remember that all these poisons
are very dangerous to stock, and if
out out, should be brought in while
took are ranging and kept entirely
tut of reach of them.-D. B. Noble,
Agent.
