SCHOOLING FOE FARMERS
INCREASE WAGE CAPACITY

tion increase the earning capacity Of
the young farmerf" is question ask
ed by some of the state agricultural
colleges. The Georgia Agricultural col
legeg collected the facts from 1,271
farmers Of that state and found that
those who had no schooling earned on
an average Of only $240 year, those
with good common school education
earned $565 year, and those who had
complicated an agricultural short course
and those who had graduated from the
agricultural college were earning an
average of $1,254 a year. The Kansas
agricultural college had 1,237 reporta
The average young farmer with com.
mon school education earned $422
year, the high school graduate 1854.
The men who had taken a short course
in agriculture earned an average Of
$3.50 year, and the college graduate

Easy to Lead Sheep If
You Know Proper Method

Most sheep lead well If properly
handled, old shepherds say. Even the
stubborn, hne-wool breeds will come
along II they are started right. No
real shepherd tries to drag a sheep
by the neck or wool. From the sleeps
left side he guides 1t, with his left arm
around Its neck, tickling the base Of
the tail with his right hand. The
sheep moves-sometimes faster than
Is expected-but 1t moves.
In catching sheep, too, there il a
right way to hold the strongest ram,
and wrong one; the wrong one may
let him go and will cause bruise that
takes two months to heal. Wise shep-
herds know that the skin is only light
ly attached to the flesh, and that hold
ing by the wool tears this tender skin
loose from the flesh even farther than
the hands grip; the resulting bruise
not only is painful to the sheep, but
damages the carcass for market until
1t heals.
The best of practical tips that old
shepherds pass among themselves
make up large part Of the CORE
spondence course in sheep and wool
production recently included In the ex-
tension service of the state agricul-
tural college at Ithaca.
The course is free, the only re-
quirements being residence In New
York state and chance to work with
sheep while taking 1t.

FARM
LIVE STOCK
Young Cocklebur Plants
Are Poisonous to Stock
the United statss Department

prepared By the United statss Department
of Agriculture.l
The cocklebur, variously thought to
have been troublesome only as a weed
and because Of Its stiffly armed burs.
has been demonstrated definitely to be
poisonous Of live stock in the early
stages Of its growth, as was reported
by other observers. The report on
this demonstration is made by G. d.
Marsh, G. c. Roe, and A. B. Clawson
of the United States Department of
Agriculture, and the results published
in department circular 283, Livestock
Poisoning by Cocklebur. Only the
very young plants. before leaves have
formed, produce poisoning, and the
dose which produces sickness or death
is about 11s pounds to 1OO-pound
animal. This means that young pigs
up to so pounds in weight, which have
been found the most susceptible, are
poisoned by II ounces or less Of the
small cocklebur plants. Cattle or
sheep also may be poisoned if they eat
enough of the plants in proportion to
their weight.
Little can be said so far about med
ical treatment for this kind of poison
ing. Feeding of whole milk was found
to prevent pigs feeding on the cookie
bur plants from being poisoned. Salt
ed bacon grease, lard. and raw lin
seed oil also gave good results. The
best method. says the circular, Is to
keep pigs of pastures infested with
cockleburs until the plants are large
enough to be harmless; or to kill out
the plants by moving them before
they seed. It must be remembered in
this connection that each bur contains
two seeds and that ordinarily only one
of them will grow the first year after
ripening, consequently it is not pos
sible to kill out patch Of the plants
the first year.
Copies of the circular may be OBJ
tained from the Department Of Agri-
culture, Washington. D. O., as long as
the supply lasts.

Hogs Get Little Benefit
From Undigested Grain

Some people argue that hogs will get
the benefit from unmoistened and un-
digested grain which passes through
animals. 1t would appear that this
logic is no better than to contend that
the threshing machine needs no special
adjusting because, after all. the flock
of hens will get the grain which passes
out the wind stacker. Everyone knows
that when grain becomes wet and al
lowed to become stale, in case of hogs
following stock, the quality Of the
grain for feeding is much reduced.
1t is true that calves several months
old do not mnsticate their feed thor
oughly. thus grinding oats and corn
will be profitable.

Pigs Fed Standing Corn
Will Do Little Roofing

Pigs fed standing corn with all the
tankage that they would eat did no
roofing. The pigs fed corn, only, did
the most roofing. Pigs fed four-tenths
pound per day Of tanknge with access
to third crop alfalfa did small
amount Of roofing. Each lot also re-
ceived coal and salt. The above re-
suits were secured in experiments
conducted by Prof. j. H. Shepperd at
the North Dakota Agricultural col

Mineral Mixtures Quite
Necessary for Hog Herd

Swine growers who are puzzled
about mineral mixtures will find their
questions answered in the following
formulas which include the essential
ingredients combined in the right pro-
portions. A careful survey Of expert
mental work with minerals suggests
the following mixtures:
-Four parts acid phosphate. or two
parts rock phosphate, or one part
bone meal with four parts ground
limestone, or six parts unleached
wood ashes, or one part air-slacked or
hydrated lime with one part salt.

An Indictment Of the
Republicans

For the next several month
we shall hear a great deal abou
the necessity of returning Mr.
Coolidge to the White Hous,
accompanied by Republican
House and Senate.
Before these frantic appeal
begin to ring in your ears, reat
this Indictment of the Republi
can administration as made b.
the New York World:
This administration stands ac-
cused of dishonesty, charged that
in the person of Forbes the dis
abled veteran was betrayed, in
the person of Fall the public
property was looted, in the per-
son of Daugherty justice was
corrupted.
It is accused of shielding dis
honesty, as demonstrated by the
support of Newberry and the in
exeusable delay and reluctance in
dismissing Forbes and paugher-
ty.
1t is accused of obstructing in
vestgiation, of resisting exposure
and of lending aid and comfort
to dishonest men.
1t is, accused of permitting it's
agents to terrorize public Off
cials in their pursuit of wrong,
by the use of spies against SEN
ators LaFollette, Caraway and
Walsh, eliminating in the at
tempted frame-up of Wheeler.
Finally, the respectable men,
bers of this administration are
charged with slackness in pre-
venting wrongs committed by
their associates in the Cabinet,
with timidity and partisanship in
failing 70 assist their expos
ure with complacency result
ing in a bad moral ex-
ample for failing to condemn
publicly and unequivocally the
dishonesty they have witnessed;
and it is charged that, however,
honest they may be personally,
they are neither vigilant enough
nor courageous enough nor pos
sessed of sufficiently stern stan
dards of public duty to justify
any confidence that they could
prevent in the future of the dis
honesty they did not prevent in
the past.
Had President Coolidge
shown more courage in de-
nouncing the rascals both from
the White House and in the C.
O. P. platform. his chances Of
reelection undoubtedly would
be greater.
