Bigger Profits Possible
From Improved Animals

Kansas dairy farmers could In
crease their returns S20,O00,0O0 a year
by better feeding and better stock ac-
cording to reported estimates OF ]. NJ.
Frandsen, a dairy specialist, at re-
cent Kansas agricultural convention.
This estimate is considered typical Of
conditions throughout the country by
live stock and dairy experts of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, which is prepared to assist state
organizations and individuals in i'm
proving their methods in breeding and
feeding. The use of pure bred sires,
particularly, is practical. economical,
and rapid means Of improving the
quality Of domestic animals. Accord
ing TO department records, more than
12,700 live stock owners have placed
their herds and focks on a strictly
pure bred sire basis, and reports from
these farmers show that pure bred live
stock has about 40 per cent utility
value over common stock.
As a means Of encouraging better
feeding methods, the department has
developed a simple feeding problem
sheet, which may be procured and
filed out by any live stock owner. A
specialist of a state agricultural col
lege, or the department, then makes
an analysis of each problem and
points out the means for solving it.

An increase of over 100000 gallons
In the annual milk production of New
Castle county, Delaware, without in
creasing the number Of dairy cows
owned has followed FIVE years dairy
Improvement work, in which the
county agent, progressive dairy farm
ers and agricultural organizations CO
operated. This county is located near
a large city, affording a good market
for whole milk, and dairying is an
important farm industry.
When extension work in dairying
was begun in Sew Castle COUNTY, many
farmers were n the habit of buying a
medium type Of grade COW without
guaranty of health Following a
county meeting of dairymen in 1918.
four carloads Of pure bred cows from
herds under federal supervision for
tuberculosis control were brought in
and distributed as far as possible at
the rate Of one to a farm, so that as
many farmers as possible might learn
for themselves whether or not the in
vestment paid The boys and girls on
the farms became interested, were or
ganized into a club and pure bred
calf secured by each member New
clubs have been organized each year
following. and exhibits of club men,
bers' stock are a feature Of district
shows and the state fair.
Club members have produced about
one-fifth of the present holdings Of
pure bred stock in the county Pure
bred bulls and cows have been pur-
chased by many farmers, after the
movement was begun, on their own
initiative. There are now about 9OG
pure bred dairy cattle in the county.

been found by domestic manufacturers
to be unstable. Principal among
these is pentad (D-5), the red durum
variety. Ii is the most rust-resistant
variety of durum wheat grown and is
a high-yielding wheat In seasons OF
severe rust The grain, however, can
not be used proftably by domestic
manufacturers of semolina from which
macaroni is made. II is sold principal
ly for export and its price is consid-
erably below that of equal grades OF
amber durum. The growing Of red du-
rum should !. be discontinued Two
varieties of amber durum which also
are rust resistant and high yielding
are not desired by the trade because
Of the grayish color of the maearoni
which they make. These are the acme

the Understanding durum variety In
most of South Dakota, and monad the
best yielding variety In North Dakota
In order 10 meet the requirements OF
the domestic market, durum wheat
growers should obtain purer and bet
ter seed and replace the pentad ODD,
acme and monad Odd varieties with
other rust-resistant varieties as soon
as possible. For this purpose the

new variety at this time.

Kohl-Rabi One of Most
Rapid Growing Plants

Kohl-rabi, though little known as 6
garden crop, is one Of the most quickly
grown vegetables. The plant, belong
ing to the cabbage tribe, thrives well
in any soil and is at its best under cool
moist conditions. Part of the plant
used is the enlarged stem which forms
just above the ground. This, wher
cooked as turnips, tastes similar &c
cabbage, though somewhat milder liz
flavor. In fact. the plant is often
called the lazy mans caulifiower The
crop should be used when bulbs are
not more than two inches in diameter (;
that is, before they become fibrous and
woody. Succession paintings made
from May until July will furnish young,
tender bulbs for use during the entire
summer. The late crop may be stored
for winter use.
