Of the addresses dealt at length with
the question Of aviation which has
agitated the public mind in recent
months.
Secretary Wilbur went to Phia-
delphia with Rear Admiral Hilary

with a number OF patriotic societies
participating.
Radio Talks Tonight
Returning to the capital tonight,
Secretary Wilbur is to introduce
three naval aviators who have been
prominently before the public in re-

Heifer Calves Deserve
Attention of Dairvmen

The heifer calf dropped this fall
the COW Of two or three years hence
should be given a fair start now.
Whole milk from its dam for the first
week and from the herd for two or
three weeks longer is almost essen
tial. But as early as the third week
of the calls life 1t should be offered
grain and hay so that it will not miss
the fat Of the milk when the change
is made to skim milk. The change to
skim milk should be made gradually.
If whole milk is being sold and there
Is no skim milk available, powdered
buttermilk diluated with nine parts
water and fed at the same rate as
skim milk is equally satisfactory.
Experimental work has proved the
value Of buttermilk for calf feeding,
only where there is no skim milk
available. Whole oats, cracked corn
and bran make a good grain for the
calf. Coarse alfalfa hay is preferable
to leafy hay. A darkened shed will
afford the calf protection from flies.

Silage .Spoilage
Easy to Prevent
Doors Should Be Fitted to
Make Sure They Are
Securely Alright.

Much silage Is wasted each year BY
holding or rotting. The presence Of
air Is the cause Of both.
Where wood-stave silos are In use the
hoops should be frightened, the inside
of the silo coated with creosote, and
the outside painted. advises the New
Jersey State College of Agriculture at
New Brunswick. The doors should be
examined and fitted to make sure that
they are alright, for they sometimes
fall apart during the summer because
Of drying out.
SpoiIage Traced to Air.
Where silo Is alright and the silage
continues to spoil it can still be traced
to air that has not been excluded at
filling time by sufficient tramping. II
silage Is cut too green, the possibilities
are strong that there win be some rot
ting. If 1t Is cut too dry, molding is
probable because air cannot be ex.
Guided unless the silage is wet.
The proper stage for cutting the corn
Is after the kernel Is denied, but before
the milk dries up. If, for some unavoid-
able reason, the corn does get too dry
before putting 1t into the silo, it is ad-
visable to put q water hose inside of
the blower, and in that way moisten
the fodder.
A lack Of sufficient tramping around
the walls during filling Is also a COM
mon cause Of molding. Many dairy
men attempt to economic by placing
only one man in the silo when 1t Is be-
ing filed. This Is poor economy, as
one man cannot keep the silage level
and tramp it sufficiently. Thorough
tramping, especially around the walls,
will save much labor and useless waste
next winter.
Spelling on Top.
Some spelling on top must be expect
ed at first. A good method is to fill the
last six or twelve inches with either
weeds or dry fodder soaked with wa
ter. II nothing else Is available, it is
we'll to take Off the ears and use mere
ly the fodder on top, as 1t will spoil
anyway. Unless this fodder Is very
green, water should be added through
the blower. Some have found that oats,
rye or wheat sown on top will sprout
and thus form a desirable alright mat.

Clover Mix Better
Than Timothy Alone
Yield of Hay Can Be Ma
terially Increased.

Why not make II timothy and clover
when planting for the next hay crop3
There are three good reasons for do
Ing so, according to A. w. Blair, asso-
ciate soil chemist at the New Jersey
agricultural experiment station.
First, clover enriches the soil In
nitrogen, whereas timothy takes all
Of its nitrogen supply from the soil.
Second, the yield of hay from the
mixture Of clover and timothy Is gen.
orally greater than from timothy
alone.
Third, the mixture gives a hay hav-
Ing a decidedly higher protein value
than timothy alone.
In 1921 the average yield Of hay
from four timothy plots at the expert
ment station was at the rate Of 1890
pounds per acre, while the average
yield on four corresponding timothy
and clover plots was 2,678 pounds per
acre. In 1922 these plots gave average
yields Of 1905 and 1925 pounds per
acre, respectively. Thus, In the two
years the difference in favor Of the
timothy and clover was almost one ton
Of hay an acre.
In 1921 the timothy and clover plots
yielded fair second cutting of hay
(much richer in protein than timothy
hay) whereas there was no second
cutting from the timothy plots.
In most cases the percentage Of
nitrogen Is nearly twice as high in the
mixture as in timothy alone. In the
1921 experiments, the timothy plots re-
turned an average yield Of 2C.5 pounds
Of nitrogen per acre, whereas the tim
othy and clover plots returned an av-
erage yield Of 1914 pounds per acre.
The corresponding figures for 1872
were 34.7 and 1874 pounds per acre,
respectively.
According to the 1920 United States
census, New Jersay farmers seeded
$4,000 acres of land to timothy in
1919. Had this land been seeded to
timothy and clover, the yield Of hay
would have been materially increased
and its feeding value would have been
distinctly improved.

Handle Fruit in Hurry
During Harvesting Tin

Handle fruit in a hurry" says G.
w. Peck of the New York State College
Of Agriculture at Ithaca.
"Have everything ready when pick
ing begins. Delays in harvesting and
packing are costly. To maintain it's
best quality and market value, fruit
should be packed and shipped or
stored as soon as possible after pick
ing.
"This applies particularly to peaches,
pears, and early apples, and to any
fruit harvested during comparatively
hot weather.
with cold storage fruit, a days de-
lay in storing means a weeks loss
from the time possible to keep it in
storage. Leaving it in the packing
house or orchard for three or four
days after 1t is picked, means that
three or four weeks will be cut from
the maximum storage period.
"Have packing tables, sizing ma
chimes, picking bags, orchard contain
ers, ladders, and everything needed in
good repair before it is wanted. Even
the ruts and rough places in the road
ways through the orchards may we'll
be given some attention to help keep
the fruit from being bruised on the
way to the packing room.
Hire dependable pickers after esti-
mating how many will handily care
for the crop, and have in convenient
places the necessary supplies of bar
rels, baskets, corrugated caps, nails,
stencils, hatchets, and the like. Get
ting all these things ready can well

er's rainy-day jobs until picking time"

Proper Care Increases
Life of Farm Tractor

Tractors, like horses, do not last
long If they are neglected or abused.
Some simple rules for increasing the
life of these machines as well as for
reducing their repair bills are offered
by e. r. Gross, professor Of rural en-
cheering at the New Jersey State Col
lege of Agriculture.
1. Handle the tractor as though It
could feel. This will avoid many
broken or bent parts.
2. Do not race the motor except
when 1t seems necessary. The gov
ernor Is intended to protect the motor
when under load. The operator must
throttle it when it is running idle.
8. In almost all cases move slowly
instead of by jerks. 1t is easier on the
machine. This applies to shifting gears
and operating the throttle and clutch.
4. Examine the machine throughout
in order to detect any loose bolts.
Tighten them before damage Is done.
This, with oiling and greasing, Is as
essential as the daily care given q
work animal.
5. Motor repairs and adjustments
such as taking up bearings, replacing
piston rings, cleaning spark plugs, re-
moving carbon, and the like, must be
done eventually, but may be deferred
If the tractor Is carefully operated.
6. In addition to the daily care, give
the tractor each winter a thorough
cleaning with water to remove dirt,
and with kerosene to remove grease.
If it is needed, an overhauling should
accompany the cleaning.

Chestnut Blight Spreads

The chestnut blight thrives in damp
weather and this season has been the
most favorable In several years. This
fungous disease which started In the
United States, on Long Island and
around New York city about 1893 has
reached to almost the last boundaries
Of the supply Of chestnut trees. They
originally extended from the New Eng
land states, New York and Pennsyl-
vania along the Appalachian mountain
system south into Georgia, and two
thirds of this territory has already
been invaded by the blight.

Cut Egg Crop Short

Overheated poultry houses hasten

doors and windows and ventilators
should be kept open as much as pos

hens. Good egg production can be
maintained by supplying, in addition
to the grain, green succulent feed, as

Cream in Hot Weather

During the hot weather it is hard to
deliver good cream. The essentials
for producing high-grade cream are to
keep it clean by having clean cows,
clean buckets and clean cans, and to
keep 1t cold. With good cellar, rum
ming water or cooling tank this can be
accomplished. Deliver cream often
and 1t will have less opportunity to
get too sour. Good butter cannot be
made from poor cream and many
creameries are beginning to pay q
premium for first-grade cream.
