Alfalfa Is Ideal
Legume as Pasture
Very Nutritious and Starts
Early in the Spring.

Alfalfa has proven itself by expert
mentation and practical experience to
be an ideal hog pasture. In some Sec
lions, other legumes might outyield al
falfa, and when this condition exists
the one yielding the largest tonnage
should be given consideration.
Alfalfa is very nutritious and starts
early in the spring, staying green until
late fall. When properly handled, al
faIfa will furnish adequate pasturage
throughout the grazing season for sew
eral years.
Brood sows upon alfalfa pasture and
receiving three ears Of corn daily will
produce strong, healthy pigs. They
may also be kept in good condition by
feeding two to three pounds of barley
per head daily while on alfalfa pas
ture. Mature sows are often grazed
upon alfalfa pasture without receiving
any grain, but better pigs will be pro-
duced IL grain Is fed.
Alfalfa or some other legume should
always be provided to furnish a sum-
mer pasture for soWs and their litters.
For fattening pigs alfalfa is without
superior. An acre of alfalfa will
carry Is pigs from weaving time until
they are ready for market. II these
pigs are given a well-balanced ration,
the acre Of alfalfa will be equivalent
in value to an acre producing 40 bush
els Of corn.-B. w. Fairbanks, Exten-
sion Service, Colorado Agricultural
College.

Summer Season to Build
Silos for Storing Feed

In the summer the farmer must be-
gin to get ready for winter. He must
get his buildings repaired If they need
it, see that there is adequate housing
for his stock and provide for the stor-
age of sufficient feed to last his anil
mails over the winter.
The sil0 plays most important part
In the storage Of feed on the modern
farm. It insures a good supply of
green feed all winter and increases
money to farmers to build silos, know
ing that the silo Increases the farm
er's bank account.
Tests at the Indiana experiment sta
ton, covering period Of 8 years,
showed that only % acres were re-
quired to feed 20 steers for $50 days
when corn silage, supplemented with
clover hay, was used, whereas it re-
quired 35 acres to produce the same
result when corn and clover were
used.
If the farmer wastes the leaves and
stalks of corn, he loses about forty
cents out Of every dollar of possible
value Of his crop. The silo prevents
this waste.
AS the value Of the silo has come TO
be recognized, there has been con-
slant movement in the direction Of
permanent silos This trend has
brought the concrete silo to the fore.

Best Kernels to Select
as Seed for Corn Crop

Whether to select smooth or rough
corn for seed is a subject of general
interest. Many farmers believe that
smooth, fiinty kernels Indicate deteri-
Grafton in quality and lower yields,
while others maintain that they secure
their highest yields from such seed.
General observation and experiments
conducted in many states for a num-
Der of years show rather conclusively
that smoothness of the kernels Is not
a sign Of deterioration in quality, but
usually indicates that conditions I'M
der which it is grown do not favor a
rough deep-kerneled variety.
1t is now known that rough kernels
are usually deep kernels which require
a rich soil and long -growing season to
mature.
Smooth kernels, on the other hand,
tend to be shallow. They mature early.
On thin upland soil or in the drier
parts it will be better to select rather
shallow kerneled, smooth ears for
seed, and somewhat deeper kernels
and rougher ears for rich bottom
lands.

INSURE POTATO CROP
THROUGH POISON DIP

Wisconsin's successful potato grow
ers are insuring their crop by treat
ing the seed. They feel that the pres
ent depression in prices will lessen the
normal crop acreage and are taking
this precaution to secure normal acre
yield
All potato seed ought to be treated
before planting, says r. E. Vaughan,
crop health specialist at the Wiscon-
sin College of Agriculture Many
farmers are using certified potato seed
and feel that such seed ought to be
free from every disease. Although no
better seed can be found than certi-
scab, black scurf and black leg. All Of
these diseases can be controlled by
seed treatment.
Vaughan outlines as the quickest
way to treat potatoes the use of three
30-gallon barrels which are open at
one end. Bore an inch hole in the
lower side of two barrels and drive
plugs in the holes. Set these two bar
rels on a raised platform and fill them
full of potatoes. In the third barrel
make a solution of ounces of cor
rosive sublimate In 80 gallons of wa
ter
Onsprouted seed, with a large
amount of black scurf or scab should
be soaked for two hours. Then draw
off the solution and return it to the
third barrel. The potatoes should be
dried Immediately after treatment. II
possible treat potatoes on clear dry
! ing day and without rinsing. In cloudy
or damp weather, when a concentra-
ton of the chemical in the eye peck
cts might result in injury, the tubers
should be rinsed. Big piles of wet

tubess must not be made as injury
may result.
Before another lot is treated the
solution is brought up to 30 gallons
and half ounce of corrosive subli-
mate added. This process may be re-
peated for six or seven times, after
which the entire solution must be
thrown away.
Treat the potatoes 10 days before
planting, is Vaughan's advice. Then
place the potatoes where they receive
only half light and allow them to re-
main there until planting time. The
sprouts will be strong and ready to
grow They will not be knocked off
at planting time hence the potato is
planted so that it has big advantage
over the disease The sprouts make a
quick growth and outgroW any fungus
which may be present.
Under no conditions should these
potatoes be used for food after they
have ben treated Corrosive sublimate
is deadly poison, and should be ham
died as such. 1t is deadly to humans
ard all live stock. Chickens must not
drink any of the solution.
Potato seed treatment gives excel
lent results. Vaughan urges all po-
tato growers to treat their seed for
larger yields of better spuds.

Add Milk to Ration
Of Young Chickens
Adds Greatly to Increased
Rate of Growth.

prepared by the United States DEPARTING MT
of Agriculture.)
That the addition of milk to the
regular grain ration Of growing chicks
leads to greatly increased rate OF
growth is a conclusion reached by fed
eral poultry specialists who have stud
led the matter experimentally. The
experiments are still in progress. The
conclusion agrees with the experience
of commercial poultrymen who have
included milk in the rations of young
chickens.
Another experiment conducted by
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture which promises to be of prac-
tical Importance is on the relative
efficiency of mash rations containing
vegetable proteins. The results thus
far bear out those of previous years
work to the effect that the addition of
certain mineral salts to vegetable
proteins makes them compare favor
ably with animal proteins as a pro
tein supplement for poultry. Unless
the minerals are used the protein of
animal origin is more efficient.
These experiments are conducted at
the bureau of animal industry farm,
located at Beltsville, Nd, near Wash
ington. Last year the government
poultry specialists Matched about 1900
chicks with good results. The fowls
are used for a great variety of stud
les in breeding, feeding, and manage
ment.

From Scrubs to
Profitable Cows
Scrawny Animals From Ar
kansas Made Good Pro-
ducers at Iowa Station.

The efficacy of the "corn-crib cross"
has again been demonstrated The
same experiment has demonstrated
also the worth OF the pure-bred cross.
Here is the cory: Over in the state
of Iowa the experiment station Off
Gals decided to go across to the
neighboring state of Arkansas, into a
section where feed was scarce and
what cows they had were poor indeed,
and buy few Of them, bring them
home, feed them well and breed them
TO pure-bred bulls. Such an expert
ment, they reasoned, would demon
gtrate the value of good feeding to
men who had herds of similarly poor
cattle and it would show how such
herds could be improved from genera
ton to generation Seven cows, four
yearling heifers and two heifer calves
were purchased. They were small and
undernourished.
Got Same Food.
When they reached their new home,
however, they got the same feed and
care as the cows in the station herd.
Instead of hay in winter and pasture
In summer, they were given alfalfa,
silage and a well-balanced meal ra-
ton Instead Of Indifferent housing
and hit-and-miss care, they had good
stable and chores were done by the
clock. The first year, under this kind
of attention, two four-year- olds In the
lot produced 3,O84.6 lbs. milk and
1924 lbs. fat This production they
steadily increased until, at seven
years Of age, they produced an aver
age Of 4,907.7 lbs. milk and 229.91 lbs.
fat, an increase Of SO per cent in milk
and 81 per cent in fat. Allowing for
the natural increase due to greater
maturity, the increase due to the Gu
mulative effect of good feed and care
was 40 per cent in milk and 46 per
cent in fat. 1t was also shown that the
younger an animal comes under good
feed and management the greater will
be it's response. Comparing the rec
ords of the two four-year-olds with
those of the older cows in the lot, they
Increased IA per cent in milk and 8
per cent in fat as compared with the
mature cows Those coming as heifers
produced 81 per cent more milk and
"a per cent more fat than did.sthose
started at maturity. There is a lesson
here for the most of US. 1t is just pos
sible that too much has been said
about the Importance of good breeding
as compared with the emphasis that
hos EanD pIaoad IN good fnod NO We
have been in sections where pure-bred
bulls have been used for generations,
but where the average production of
the herds was very low. 1t was case
of poor feeding When we consider
that these Arkansas cows were as
poor as could be found, we must con
clude that there would be very few
B,000-pound cows, If all cows were
given real chance.

Ensilage Corn
Best for Silo
Results of Tests Made With
Two Varieties at Differ
ent Stations.

Is It more profitable to plant en-
silage corn for the silo than ordinary
field corn? is the question that presents
itself to many silo owners at this
time of the year. In Iowa few are
growing special varieties for the silo,
the majority of farmers believing that
the regular field corn, taking every
thing into consideration, can be more
profitably handled than some special
ensilage variety that grows more for
age and less grain per acre.
Larger Amount of Water.
There is no doubt but silage made
from ensiIage corn contains a larger
amount Of water than that made from
field corn. In other words, that the
former is more succulent than the lat
ter Or that it contains less dry matter
per pound or per ton. On the other
hand, ensilage corn produces a larger
tonnage than field corn and the ques-
ton arises whether the greater tom
mage containing less dry matter per
ton Is more economical for the dairy
COW than field corn silage, which is
more concentrated.
The Indiana experiment station
has been testing this matter for a
number Of years and has come to the
conclusion that field corn silage pro-
duced approximately 1.5 per cent
more milk and per cent more fat
than ensilage corn silage. Ton for
ton, in other words, the field corn pro-
duced slightly more milk and fat than
ensilage corn silage, but the yield Of
dry matter or of total nutrients per
acre from ensilage corn was much
greater than from field corn. The diff
ference in yield Of the two kinds of
corn was large enough so that en-
silage corn proved the more profitable.
Similar results have been obtained at
the Ohio and Connecticut experiment
stations.
Silo Any Part.
There is another factor aside from
yield per acre to be considered In con-
nection with this problem Of whether
to plant ensilage or field corn for the
silo If the entire corn crop is of the
same variety, any part of it can be put
into the silo. If, on the other hand,
ensilage corn is raised for the silo,
the particular field that is set aside
for that purpose must be used. There
are times, owing to late planting or
to excessive moisture in the spring,
when some part of the corn crop can
not be cultivated as thoroughly as
some other part, and may on that ac-
count mature a week or so later. In
such case the late corn m ~ be put
In the silo, and the handicap due to
late maturity partially avoided. Such
late corn might not mature, and, I'M
less it could be put in the silo, much
of it would be wasted.

Control Tomato Blight
by Spraying or busting

Tomatoes are very largely injured
by leaf spot or blight, which by In
juring the leaves prevents the ma
turity and development Of the fruit.
They also are likely to be sun scalded
because of no protection by the
leaves.
This trouble can be controlled to
a considerable extent by spraying or
busting with bordeaux. which Is
profitable on rich soils, but may not
be profitable on poor soils. The eff
fects of the trouble can largely be
avoided by setting out only stocky,
weIl-hardened plants early in the
spring.
The disease lives over in weeds,
grass and rubbish of the garden, and
therefore, much can be done in the
way of prevention by keeping the
garden clean. Bulletin No. 1888 of
the United States Department OF
Agriculture gives full details about
this disease.
