Flowing Up Barn Lots Is
Beneficial to Animals

Hog raisers may accomplish two de-
sirable results by blowing up the barn
lots at least once a year. In the first
place.. hogs need good succulent pas
ture as much Of the time as possible.
and in the second place, they need pro-
lection against internal parasites, such
as round worms, the eggs Of which re-
main in the soil. Turning the soil in
the lots helps to get rid Of the pests
and the crop Of forage makes it a
profitable operation, writes Jack l..
Baker in the Indiana Farmers Guide.
In addition to providing cheap protein
feed, pasture crops aid as laxative
and require the hogs to take certain
amount Of exercise which is necessary
to breeding animals and growing pigs.
Rye is probably the best crop to use
for winter and spring pasture for hogs
BY putting in successive paintings
from two to four weeks apart 1t is pos
sible to have fresh pasture all the
time. Seeding for pasture should be
much heavier than for grain crop !;
from three to four bushels per acre on
a good soil is best. Pasturing can be-
gin six weeks after seeding. and may
be continued If the rye is not COW
cred with snow, until the following
April.

Dat Smut Caused
by Minute Plant
Enters Developing Kernels
and Turns Them Into 7
Powdery Masses.

Dat smut Is caused by very NH
nute plant which lives parasitically
within the tissues of the oat plant.
It gains entrance In the Seeding
stage, about the time the plant IL
emerging from the soil. When once
inside 1t grows upward through the
tissues Of the stem, giving little or
no external evidence of its presence
until the heads are produced At this
time it enters the developing kernels
and destroys them by forming black
powdery masses In their places.
Important Parasite.
The black powdery substance is
found to be made Of millions Of small,
spherical. dark bodies called spores"
Spores represent the reproductive
phase Of the parasite and are Inn
portant in that they are the means by
which the smut is spread. They are OF
very light weight and easily carried
by air currents for long distances.
They find lodgment upon, or under
meath, the chaff Of healthy grains and
remain there until the grain is sown.
Under favorable conditions the spores
terminate soon after termination OF
the grain itself. They produce a
tiny transparent infection thread
which soon penetrates the young It's
sues Of the growing Seeding and
thereafter keeps pace with the upward
growth Of the stalk.
Produce Dark Spores.
BY the time the plants arrive at ma
turity the original infection threads
have grown SO extensively that they
enter the developing kernels and pro-
duce the characteristic large masses
of dark spores. This simple life cycle
Of the smut fungus is completed but
once during the growing season. and,
unless 1t is checked by means Of effec-
tive seed treatment, may continue in
definitely in succeeding crops. -Exten-

Top Dressing Alfalfa Is
Proper Thing for Spring

Il 4s4 Ell III H4 e
The practice Of top-dressing alfalfa
with manure during the winter is not
recommended by the Ohio experiment
station. It frequently results in in
jury to the stand and is not sure
preventive Of winterkilling. Top dress
ing in the spring with moderate
application Of acid phosphate is to be
preferred.
If from very late cutting in the fall
or other cause the stand is too thin i'm
the spring for good crop, full har-
vest Of hay may be secured by drilling
in oats in March or early April with
q disc drill, at the rate Of three or four
pecks per acre. The mixture Of oats
and alfalfa will make hay Of good
quality.
: If an early variety Of oats, such as
Fulghum, Sixty Day, Kherson, or Burt
Is sown, the mixture may be cut when
the alfalfa is coming into bloom and
will make hay Of good quality.
The second cutting will be almost
pure alfalfa. A mixture of three
pounds Of timothy seed and two of
alsike per acre may be seeded with
the oats. This will gradually gill the
spaces between the scattered alfalfa
plants.

It Is Necessary to Feed

pig. The unborn pig is built largely
of protein. hence the necessity of feed

Cultivate Acquaintance
With Trees in Woodlot

Cultivate an acquaintance with your
trees. In nearly every planting of any
age there is need for some thinning.
Exercise your best judgment as to the
most desirable trees to be left perma-
nently, space them as uniformly as
possible and remove the superfluous
trees. Most towns have a large num-
Der Of trees that should be removed in
order that the remaining ones may be
developed symmetrically true to the
best type of their species. Remember
that isolated trees must protect them
selves and the branches must shade
the trunk. Sun scald is nearly always
followed by an attack of borers and
many trees are lost by improper prun-
ing. An attempt to grow trees with
too small trunks is likely TO be fatal
to many Of them.
The woodlot should be carefully in
spected, leaving the trees that prom
Use to be of the most value in coming
years.

Digging in Now to Help
Digging Out in Summer

There are many things that farm
err can just as well do now as to wait
till summer time is here. Putting the
farm tools in shape is one of the first
Of these. Doing this work now gives
us time to get repairs and to do the
repairing as 1t should be done. An
other is getting the manure out of the
yards and onto the fields. Draw 1t
out as fast as it accumulates. Thus
handled the manure is Of more value
to the fields. keeps yards in better
shape and next summer will be less
Of the fly nuisance about the premises.
A third duty for the cold months is the
putting of the fences in order. This
will save much annoyance and waste
Of time by keeping the live stock in
place.

Diversified Farming
lis Winning Friends
Find Stock Profitable Side
Line in the West.

prepared by the United States DepartMcnt
Of AgricuiturA)
The effective farm triO-the cow, the
hog, and the hen-have recently won
many friends In a wheat-growing coun-
ty Of the West, Douglas county, Wash.
This dry-land section had been plant
ing wheat and buying most of Its but
ter and eggs and using much canned
milk and cream. For the last three or
four years the county agricultural ex-
tension agent, leading farmers, and
business men Of the county have been
endeavoring to bring about the gradual
addition Of enough live stock on the
wheat farms to help feed the family
and make good contribution toward
running expenses. Most of the Douglas
county men have made the change in
their farming systems by degrees, be-
ginning with only few animals, gem
orally three or four cows, two brood
sows, and about so chickens. AS the
growing of feed crops permits and skill
In handling live stock develops, the
flock and herds usually are built up to
the amount Of live stock the farm
should carry.
How generally this diversified farm
ing plan has been developed in the
county Is shown by the fact that In
stead Of importing butter. eggs, and
cream, as was the case three years
ago. there was shipped out Of the
county during the year ending May 1,
1928, according to reports to the Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture, a
surplus of over 5000 cases Of eggs,
1900 pounds Of butter, and $4,000 gal
Ions Of cream. In addition, it is esti-
mated that the amount of poultry
and dairy products used in the county
has more than doubled In the three
years.

Breeding Cows and Sows
Like Sweet Alfalfa Hay

The man who has some nice, sweet
alfalfa hay stored away need not have
much trouble with his breeding stock,
If he will make liberal use or IT. Cows
fed on good legume hay will drop strong
calves. Sows will farrow strong, Wig
orous filters IL they are fed plenty Of
alfalfa and oats OF barley, and sparing-
" Of corn. Breeding cows or sows
should not run with nor be fed with
the fattening stock. Some breeders al
low their sows to run with the general
drove up to within two or three weeks
Of narrowing time. It's mistake, and
small filters with cross mothers are
the outcome.
Alfalfa hay is good conditioner,
and it's good bone builder; you can't
find anything better, and the good,
careful live stock feeder will see that
his stock has plenty of it during the
next two or three months.

Composition of Kohl-rabi
Very Much Like Mangels

Kohl-rabi Is very much Of the same
composition as mangels, but the dry
matter content is lower, and since the
yield is generally less than that Of
mangels the cost Of nutrients in kohl
rabbi will be higher. The value Of the
dry matter will be almost equal to that
Of grain in the ration, pound for pound,
but there is so much water that 1t is
impossible to feed enough of kohl-rabi
to replace grain. On the whole, kohl
rabbi should occupy the same place in
the ration that is occupied by mangels
or other roots. Where there is choice
between growing kohl-rabi for stock
or growing mangels, other things being
equal, the mangels win make the most
