Eradication of TB
Making Big Progress
Many States Active in Free
ing Country Of Menace.

prepared by the United States Department
OF Agriculture.)
The nationwide effort to suppress
bovine tuberculosis resulted IL the de-
lection of 25,163 reactors during April.
according to a report just issued by
the bureau Of animal industry, Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture.
To obtain this number Of diseased
cattle, the federal and state veteri-
nary inspectors tested 815,38e cattle.
At the end of the month 1874, $40
cattle throughout the country were
under the supervision for the eradica-
ton of the disease. The report shows
also the extent of activity in the
various states. Iowa is the only state
having more than a million cattle I'M
der supervision In combating tuber-
culosis The group of states having
from 100000 to 100000 cattle under
such supervision includes Illinois,
Michigan, Missouri, New York, and
Wisconsin. States having from 25O,-
600 to 100000 cattle under supervF
sion are Indiana, Minnesota, Ken
lucky, Montana, North Carolina,
North Dakota, Nebraska, Ohio, Ore
gon, Pennsylvania, and Washington.
From 100000 to 100000 are under
supervision in the following states:
California, Georgia, Idaho, Kansas,
Maine and Vermont. The figures
represent the status of the work In
the various states on May l.
Other states, many of which have a
limited number Of cattle, are similarly
active, though it is not so apparent
from the statistical reports. Extensive
testing and the constant removal end
slaughter of reactors are gradually
freeing the country from the menace
Of bovine tuberculosis, which In the
past has caused heavy ravages among
herds and has been source of danger
to people. Fifty-nine counties in IA
states are now officially recognized
as practically free from tuberculous
cattle, and several hundred additional
counties are rapidly qualifying for
the accredited county list.

Best Depth for Flowing
Various Kinds of Soils

How deep is 1t profitable to plow? At
the Illinois experiment station, results
Of blowing tests carried on for several
years were recently published. The
tests were made In gray silt loan on
tight clay In Marion and Cumberland
counties and on brown silt loan In
Champaign county.
Less than five inches was considered
as shallow, between FIVE and eight
inches medium and more than eight
inches, deep blowing. When 1t cost
$3.50 to pillow an acre seven inches
deep, 1t cost So an acre to subsoil and
81 an acre to deep till. 1t required
four horses to pull subsoil pillow and
six to pull the deep tillage machine. In
Cumberland county a two-plow tractor
was used for two years to pull the
deep tillage machine. and it was over
loaded.
The difference In the average yields
on fields receiving the various treat.
ments was so small as to entirely lack
significance. These results check exs
actly with similar Ohio experiment.
The authors of that experiment state
that the yields from the various fields
were practically identical and in view
of the expense involved, the seven-inch
blowing was by far the most profitable.
The use Of dynamite on soils having
an impervious subsoil did not material
ly increase yields while the cost was
high. When charges were placed at
intervals of one rod each way and one
third of stick used for each shot, the
cost ran around $40 to $25 an acre with
dynamite at 30 cents a pound.

Poultry Facts


Provide plenty of oyster shell in ad.
dftion to grit.
Sunshine keeps chicks growing rap
idlya Give them plenty.
A chicken doesn't drink very much at
a time, but that's no sign that it
doesn't need any water.
tuberculosis in poultry causes an
unthrifty condition, especially in the
older birds. They get poor and thin,
lose flesh rapidly in most cases, and
many Of them get lame.
If one is not careful on mash feed
ing, there is danger of getting the
chicks aft feed by giving too much.
The first six weeks Of "A chicks life Is
the most critical period. The largest
per cent of losses occurs during this
time.
Plenty Of shade should be provided
for growing chicks. When allowed to
range in an orchard or cornf1eld, they
will not only find ample shade and
green feed, but will benefit the trees
or corn by destroying bugs and worms

Cause of Bowel Trouble

Bowel trouble in hens is usually
caused by some digestive disorder due
to the feed. If the hens do not have
dry mash this may be a cause. A
hopper of bran is often useful in stop
ping bowel trouble. White diarrhea
Is disease Of chicks although it is
often carried by old birds and trans
mitted to the chicks without the old
birds showing any outward sign Of
the trouble. Perform a post norton
on the hens that die and note any un-
usual condition.

FARMER HOLDS PLACE
OF VAST IMPORTANCE
Law of Supply and Demand
Favors Tiller of Soil,
Runke States.
BY R. R. RUNkE

When certain captain of industry
was once asked what he thought OF
the future prospects Of his business
states Of America and you will never
lose" This, in a capsule, is the dose
should prescribe to the chronic rural
pessi1nist Of today. We are now at
the same position in relation to pros
perity as the farmer was who had his
entire hay crop ruined by adverse
weather and when offered a bet of 100
to 1 that the rainy spell would con-
tinue, was pessimist enough to turn
1t down, not realizing that a few weeks
or month of rain might naturally be
followed by somewhat dryer weather.
Now, is 1t not quite likely that times
so ruthlessly out of joint in agricul-
ture since 1920 may be followed by
"'better days a-coming"f
Supply and Demand Regulate Prices.
1t is my humble opinion that "signs"
are evident at every turn pointing to
S'the farmers inning" again. Is it not
a fact that the world Is never more
than six months away from starva-
t1on? The great mass Of consumers
the world over may feel quite SNUG
over the abundant wheat crops of the
american farmer, or the Argentine
farmer, or the Canadian or Russian
wheat growers, yet, but one crop fall

of all cereal crops, and much more i'm

Study of Cost of Farm
Power Made by Purdue

In a study of the cost of farm power
made by the Purdue university agri-
cultural experiment station In Tippe-
canoe county, Indiana, 1t was found
on summarizing the records from
30 farms for three years, that
on the third of the farms where
horse labor was used most efl-
GENTLY, each horse cared for 25.5
acres Of crops; that on a second
third Of the farms, which had only
average labor efficiency, each horse
cared for 20.5 acres of crops; and that
on the remaining third of the farms
with less than average labor efficiency.
each horse cared for only 1873 acres
Of crops. Farmers, generally, who were
above the average, got 90 per cent
more service from their horses than
did the farmers who were below the
average.

Fowls Eat Grain Seed

Farmers can prevent practically all
interference of fowls with their newly
planted grain crops simply by seeing
to 1t that the birds are we'll fed.
Hungry hens soon learn to follow the
rows across cornfeld, for example,
and will dig up the seed In most
thoroughgoing way. A good morning
feed of shelled corn, however, will
promptly put stop to this. Hens
will not scratch for grain when they
can get all they want without effort.

One Cause of Bloat

When cattle have eaten a lot of salt
just before being turned on pasture
they are apt to drink large amount
of water after filling up on green feed
and that sometimes causes rapid fer
mentation Of the contents of the stom-
ach and may result in serious case
of bloat. This may happen even If the
legumes are not wet. Let cattle have
free access to salt at all times so they
will not develop an unusual thirst.

Quick Turnover Is Best

Profit IL raising chickens for the
market can come in only one direction,
and that is through quick turnover.
Quick turnover was never more neces-
sary to profit than in the poultry yard.
One Of the places where profit Is lost
is in holding surplus cockerels too
long. Surplus cockerels should be
marketed as fast as possible. Unless
you. have worked up a good demand
for your breeding stock it is impossi-
BILE to hold them any length of time
and make money on them.

Control Mites and Lice

Along with warm weather there will
come the usual host Of lice and mites,
the bane of the poultry flock owner.
These insects, which are credited with
causing the loss Of one-third of the
spring hatch. can be controlled If
taken in time. Cleaning houses thor
oughly and painting roosts and nests
with creosote and other suitable disin-
fectants will eliminate the mites. Moth
ing has been found more effective for
destroying lice than sodium flouride.

Cooperative Butter Sales

During 1924 the Minnesota Co
operative Creameries association, st.
Paul, Mimi, sold 32.OOO,OOO pounds of
butter. This is a sales agency estab-
lished by farmer-owned and operated
creameries now serving 476 cream
cries. Over 80 PEI cent of the butter
was sold under the trademark Of the
association for sweet-cream butter
scoring 90 or higher.

Invest in a Vest

Golf vests of the rather mannish
type are being worn. These waist
coats have long pointed fronts and are
often knitted in stripes with. a plain,
short back. If they have sleeves the
latter usually are Of solid color
matching the predominant shade Of
the front.

Scratch Feed for Hens

Not over one-third of the scratch
feed should be fed in the morning.
with the other two-thfrds fed in the
afternoon. This will allow the h-as
to fill their crops before going TO
roost. The mash feed should be be-
fore the hens all of the time. The
light feed in the morning will en-
courage them to eat more of the mash.
and this is needed to furnish the mus
cle-building portion of the ration which
Is needed for heavy egg production.
