Time to Clean Up
Home Berry Patch
Good Clean Crop of Fruit
Often Results From Early
Work in Garden.

The time to clean up the home berry
patch and the vineyard is right now,
according to r. p. White, assistant
professor of botany at Kansas State
Agricultural college. There are sew
eral practices which should be care
fully carried out if good clean crop
Of small fruits Is to be obtained next
summer" Professor White said.
"Raspberries and blackberries are
both attacked by diseases whose con-
troll is the same. AnthracnOse, dis
ease Of the canes, can be largely elm
mated from the patch by cutting out
all the diseased canes at this time of
the year.
Apply Bordeaux Mixture.
"A bordeaux mixture, 4-4-50, should
be applied three times-frst before
the leaves appear in the spring, Sec
ond when the young shoots are six
inches high. and third before the BIOS
SONS open.
Grown gall is another common dis
ease in small planting is black rot.
the dark, rough gals at the soil line.
These should be removed now.
Both the blackberry and raspberry
are attacked by the orange rust. In
this the surface of the leaves is COW
cred with an orange powder which Is
easily spread. The only remedy is to
dig up the plants and burn them.
"The most troublesome grape dis
ease in small planting is black rot.
1t attacks the green berries. Bor
deaux mixture, $3.50, should be APP
piled as a spray once before the BIOS
SONS open, and once or twice after the
petals have fallen. The disease may
be lessened by proper pruning also.
Wet weather is favorable for the
spread Of the disease.
Mulch Strawberries.
Strawberries should be we'll mulched
during the winter to prevent frost in
jury. The patch should be we'll weed
ed during the picking season. There
is a root rot which has caused great
deal of concern. There is no remedy
for it, once it starts. The only rec
ommendation that can be made is to
start new patch some place else.
eff there is abundant rain, consid-
cradle loss occurs from soil rot. This
can be prevented if a heavy straw
mulch is applied around the plants
and between the rows.
"In the control of any plant dis
ease, sanitation measures are very
important and now is the time to
clean up the blackberry and raspberry
patch and the vineyard"

Flavors and Odors
of Milk From Feed
Precautions Must Be Taken
in Feeding Vegetables.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
When cows are fed such succulent
feed as cabbage, potatoes, green al
falfa green corn, turnips and silage,
there is liable to be some noticeable
flavor in the milk unless precautions
are taken, says the United States De
partment of Agriculture. A great deal
of experimental work has been done
in the use of these feeds, and certain
practices have been found desirable
and practicable. The important facts
brought out were as follows:
Feeding succulent feed before milk
ing is likely to impart an undesirable
flavor and odor to the milk.
The longer the time elapsing be-
tween feeding and milking the less
pronounced will be the undesirable
lavors and odors.
Feeding succulent feeds immediate
ly after milking has little or no detri-
mental effect.
Prompt and thorough aeration of
milk while still warm will remove
slight flavors and odors and will les
sen the intensity Of strong f1avors and
odors.
The departments market milk spe-
cialists say that feeds may be one of
the most frequent causes of abnormal
favors and odors in milk, and for that
reason the feeding of the succulent
feeds listed above should be done very
carefully.
Sometimes the appearance of feed
flavor or odor in milk alarms the con-
sumner, and it may be to the interest
of the producer or distributor to &C
quaint the public with the cause.

Economical Ration for
Feeding Ewes and Lambs

Experiments at the Ohio agricul-
tural experiment station have shown
that when the ewes are in good thrifty
condition heavy grain feeding prior to
Landing is uneconomical and does not
increase the efficiency of the ration. A
light grain allowance, however. is to
be strongly recommended even though
legume hay and corn silage make up a
large part Of the daily feed, for the
ewes fed one-third to one-half pound
of grain per head daily in addition to
legume hay and corn silage weaned
strong lambs and had an abundant
supply of milk.
After lambing, the grain allowance
should be increased sufficient to main
tain the condition of the ewes as far
as possible and to insure a good flow
Of milk. When the lambs have learned
to eat grain, and they should always
have creep where they can eat with
out interference, the grain allowance
Of the ewes can be somewhat reduced
without reducing the efficiency Of the
ration.

Farmers Should Produce
Vegetables for Own Use

Modern economic life is built on d.
vision Of labor Our standard Of liv-
ing would be impossible without it.
But do not some farmers carry it too
far when they fail to produce their
own vegetables? If they depend on
buying them, they are almost certain
not to buy enough. The best modern
diet standards call for two servings Of
vegetables for each of us daily, besides
potatoes. Few families use vegetables
that freely unless they grow their own.
Supposing that they did buy in album
dance, would it pay? Almost certain
ly not. The average price received by
farmers for food sold Is now about 1875
per cent of what it was in the years
just before the war, but the price the
farmer pays for food he buys at retail
is about $50 per cent of pre-war prices.
High-priced labor gets the difference.
The more of his own food the farmer
produces, the more of that difference
he can save.

Sheep Shearing Machine
Is Quite Satisfactory

There are many methods of shear
ing sheep, ranging all the way from a
pair Of ordinary scissors to the finest
machine clippers. Quite few farm
ers at the present time are using hand
shears. Probably the most satisfactory
machine on the market now is the
flexible shaft machine, which has an
attachment for clipping horses and
mules and another attachment, or flex-
ible arm, for sheep shearing. This ma
chine will cost somewhere in the neigh
borhood of $50. Where several farm
ers in community are growing sheep
Prof. L. V. Starkey, chief of the ami
NAL husbandry division at Clemson
college, suggests that they can coop
crate by purchasing machine and
use the same machine for all of the
small flocks.

Convenient Location Is
Essential for Chickens

Well-drained position is essential for
a suitable site for a healthful hen
house. AS women folks so often have
the greatest share in the work of car
ing for the farm flock it is best to put
the poultry house in convenient To-
cation as near to the dwelling as per-
Missile, although not so close as to
be Objectionable because of feathers,
droppings and feed litter. A sunny
location, sheltered from north or
northwest winds, is another point to
consider. Sometimes we erect poultry
houses in close connection with cribs,
granaries and barns. Rats and like
vermin soon find such place to revel
In, and add danger to the security of
the flock. The grain bins should be
kept tightly closed and protected in
the best modern manner from the in
roads Of rats regardless Of the loca-
ton of the henhouse.

Chance for Farmers to
Produce Riding Horses

An opportunity for farmers to start
production of useful, salable riding
horses is being offered by the animal
husbandry department of the Kansas
State Agricultural college. The de-
partment has secured thoroughbred
riding horse, General Haig, as loan
from the government .remount service,
and will keep him in the local stud
this season.
General Haig has won more than
5000 in prize money as race horse,
taking first in nine important handi-
caps on the important tracks of the
country, from New Orleans to Latonia.
There is need and market de-
mand for riding horses in the coun-
try" commented DR.. @. w. McCamp-
BELL head of the department, in an
nouncing the acquisition Of General
Haig. He urged farmers who wish to
produce good riding horses to take ad-
vantage Of the opportunity offered.

Proper Plan to Supply
Bee COLONY Foundation

The cost of foundation is very small
compared to the cost Of letting the
bees build it. If the bees build comb
they have to eat good deal Of honey
and stay in the hive to generate the
comb. They seldom build comb except
when there is good honey flow on.
By using foundation the beekeeper
saves the comb builders much, work,
and thus provides many more field
workers. Two advantages for comb
foundation are as follows:
1. Combs built on foundation are
straight and easy to handle.
2. Comb foundation is stamped for
working bee cells, and the bees draw
it out as 1t is started. and in this way
avoid raising excessive numbers of
drones.-E. s. Provost, Extension Bee
Specialist, Clemson College.

POWERS FEAR CHINESE DEMAND
FOR ABSOLUTE CUSTOMS AUTONOMY
WILL WRECK COMING CONFERENCE
especial to The DAILY workerl

PICKING, Oct. 21-The refusal by
the powers of the demand to give
China absolute customs autonomy
may mean the wreeking Of the Chin.
csc customs conference to be opened
Monday. This demand coupled with
the renewed activity Of the Chinese
war-lords has spiked the conference
as far as real results are concerned
is the fear of the powers that are
involved in the present conference.
One of the first proposals that will
be presented to the conference by
the Chinese delegation will be the de-
mand that China be given immediate
absolute customs autonomy. China
lost her customs autonomy in 1912
when she signed the treaty of Nank-
ing following the opium wars, allow
ing England to fix the tariff SEIZED

The demand for a complete Gus
toms autonomy is led by DR.. C. T.
Wang, who headed the Chinese dele
cation that refused to sign the Yer
sailles treaty. The powers fear that
DIR. Wang will be strong factor in
the Chinese delegation and that if
the customs autonomy demand is not
granted, he may wreck the confer
ence by leaving the meeting with

Washington Not Surprised

WASHINGTON, Oct, 21.-No great
surprise was occasioned here today
by the announcement in Paris that
the French government shortly will
submit a new offer for funding its
$4,OO0,0OO,OOO war debt.
Joseph Caillaux told members of
the American debt commission before
leaving here several weeks ago that
the 5-year agreement would either be
accepted or negotiations for a per-
manent settlement renewed, and he
apparently has chosen the latter alter
native.
Serious Situation Seen
Some of the more cynical members
OF the commission were inclined to
believe that the new French offer re-
ported coming will be more of a ges-
ture than anything else.
French credit, French bonds and
the franc have been hard hit since the
failure of M. Caillaux to settle the
debt here, and restorative measures
are imperative from his standpoint
The failure of the internal loan also
is considered very serious by financial
experts here.
NO official cognizance of the report
ed new offer will be taken until II
actually arrives. Until that time the
treasury has taken the attitude that
the next move is up to France"
Dawes Plan Looms
The decline of the franc and the
general unfavorable position of
France may furnish the basis for a
counter proposal by the United States
to any proposition coming from
France to submit to a survey of in.
dustry and agriculture with view of
determining the amount France can
pay to the United States. In plain
words the American government is
striving to bring about a condition
where France will have to bow to
the yoke of Dawes plan, similar to
that now imposed upon Germany.

PROPOSAL. FROM
FRANCE LIKELY
Washington Plan Not to
Be Accepted

PARIS, Oct. 21.-The French gov
eminent will probably offer new
debt settlement proposal to the u.
S. before November LIST, it was an
nounced today by the foreign office.
The tentative five-year temporary
agreement. made between M. Caillaux
and the American debt funding COM
mission, is not likely to be presented
to the French parliament.
Strong Opposition
M. Caillaux, it is understood, has
found that public and official opposi-
ton to the five-year settlement terms
so strong that it would be unwise to
present this proposition to the cham
Der of deputies or the senate.
New proposals are now being draf-
ted and it is understood that they
will be forwarded to Washington
thru the usual diplomatic channels.
The financial position of France is
such that it seems probable that any
new offer to the United States can
not be more favorable that those
which were made by M. Caillaux and
his mission when in Washington.
M. Caillaux will meet with the
cabinet on Friday and will lay down
his financial program for meeting the
present financial situation, and it is
expected that the whole matter will
be taken up by the chamber meeting
on Oct. 20.
