to that effect.
When a city's boosters bid its citi-
zens forget its faults, they forget that,
even as a matter of mere expediency,
honesty is the best policy. They ig-
more the truth that there are elements
of progress which are bigger than
mere bigness. If city is to reach it's
best possible estate, it must be told it's

telling. Faithful are the wounds Of
a friend" Honest fault-fnding is one
of the greatest benefits that can be be-
slowed upon government. Exposure
of a city's faults Is the best boosting
1t can have.
One compounds evil who tries to
conceal the fact of its existence. De-
layed exposure Of wrong reacts to the
disadvantage of a city in all ways. 1t
is told that in Denver organizations
have insisted that nothing be pub
lished that would "hurt business" :"
Facts as to concealment are sure to
be more damaging than the publica-

been.-Chicago Journal.

HOMEGROWN FEEDS
ARE THE CHEAPEST

Corn and oats, both home grown
feeds are still the cheapest source Of
dlgeStible nutrients and should be used
as extensively as possible in the dairy
ration this winter; it is pointed out by
Z. 5. Rhode, University of Illinois, I'm
fortunately, these two feeds do not
put enough protein into the ration, un-
less the rOughage that is being fed is
good legume hays only, and cOnSe-
quently it is necessary in most cases
to buy some feed that is high in pro-
tein to supplement the corn and oats.
AT present prices gluten meal and
cottOnseed meal are the two cheapest
feeds for this purpose
When silage and legume hays are
being fed as roughage, a good grain
mixture can be made Of 500 pounds of
ground corn, 25O pounds of ground
oats and 100 pounds of ground soy
beans. Another good grain mixture
for use with silage and legume hays
can be made from 500 pounds Of
ground corn, 500 pounds of ground
oats, so pounds Of cottonseed meal
and so pounds Of gluten meal Both
Of these grain mixtures should be fed
at the rate of 21a pounds for each
gallon Of milk produced.
When no legumes are being fed, the
grain mixture should be made of 100
pounds each of gluten meal, ground
corn, ground oats and linseed oil meal
Another good grain mixture to use
when no legumes are being fed can be
made from 100 pounds each of ground
corn, wheat bran and linseed oil meal
and so pounds Of cottonseed meal.
These two should be fed at the rate of
21A to pounds Of grain for each gal
Ion of milk produced.
When legume hays supply all the
roughages, the grain mixture can be
limited to 100 pounds Of ground corn
and 100 pounds of ground oats. A sec
ond grain mixture that can be used
when legume hays supply all the
roughages can be made from 600
pounds Of ground corn, 800 pounds of
ground oats and 100 pounds of linseed
oil meal These two grain mixtures
should be fed at the rate of 8 to 31a
pounds for each gallon of milk pro-
duced.

Watch for an Invasion
of the San Jose Scale

The San Jose scale is again making
inroads into orchards. The great
activity Of nurserymen and orchard
lists in combating the scale several
years ago, practically eliminated the
pest as a menace to fruit growing.
Lately, however, vigilance has been
relaxed to the extent that the scale
Is again becoming serious problem
In many orchards.
Fruit growers are urged to be on
the lookout for badly infested trees
as they prune their orchards. The
twigs and small branches of severely
infested trees have a grayish, scurvy
look. which may extend even to the
main branches BY marking such
trees, special attention can be given to
them when the spraying is done.
Spraying with limesulphur at a
strength of one part lime-sulphur to
eight parts of water early in the
spring, just as the buds begin to swell,
will hold the scale in check, it is
said. Trees which have been marked
as having heavy infestation should
receive extra careful spraying in the
spring

Early Diagnosis of Hog
Cholera Very Important

Early diagnosis is one of the most
important steps in the control of hog
cholera, which has developed on many
farms in Minnesota this year. Re
sponsibility of proper diagnosis and
the method Of procedure to follow,
lie with the veterinarian, who should
be called as soon as the pigs appear
to be sick.
Emphasizing the Importance of a
correct diagnosis, DR.. H. G. H. Kern
kamp of the division of veterinary
medicine, University of Minnesota, says
that if hog cholera serum were to be
used on swine suffering from some
disease other than cholera results
would be discouraging.
In outbreaks of cholera anti
cholera serum cannot be used too
soon," he says. Serum is not cure,
but it may be given in large doses to
swine in the early stages of the dis
order. Even if only few hogs are
saved the serum will pay fo- itself"

Cuttings From Canes to
Obtain Desired Grapes

Grape varieties do not as a rule
come true from seed, although some
of the young plants may closely re-
semble the parent. The only sure way
to obtain plants just like the desired1
variety is to make cuttings from the
canes of the past seasons growth.
These are taken some time after leaf
fall, and preferable after several hard
freezes. The cuttings are usually
made in 10 to 12-inch lengths The
lower cut is made very closely to the
lower bud, and sometimes even
through the node. The upper cut iss
made an inch or more above the up
per bud. The cuttings thus made are.
then placed in bundles with the butt

buried in trench Or pit with the butt

of soil is sufficient over the ends. The

should be open and we'll drained.
When the soil has warmed sufficiently
In the spring so that the cuttings may
be planted out they are placed almost
vertically in a trench with the butr

FEED LAYING HENS
IN COLD WEATHER

In feeding laying hens, only one
half to One-third as much of the
scratch feed should be fed in the
morning as in the evening, according
to the instructions accompanying a
list of ratiOns for laying hens recent
ly compiled by T. A. Bittenbender Of
the poultry husbandry department,
Iowa State college.
He states that the mash feeds
should be left before the birds at all
times. 1t should be fed in self-feed-
ing hOpperS. 1t has been found that
mash mOistened with hot water or
buttermilk fed in the middle Of the
morning will increase the egg pro-
ductfon noticeably during the winter
months.
The green feed should be fed at
noon or soon after. Sprouted oats,
steamed alfalfa leaves, cabbage. beets
mangles or a small amount of fresh
silage will answer the purpose Green
feeds and mash are very essential, ac-
cording to Mr.. Bittenbender, for the
highest possible production of eggs
during the winter months.
Some scratch fOrmulae which Mr..
Bittenbender recommends are as fol-
lows: 200 pounds of corn to 100
pounds Of oats; or 200 pounds of corn,
200 pounds of wheat and 100 pounds
of oats For a mash formula the fol-
lowing is recommended: 100 pounds
bran, 100 pounds middlings or shorts,
100 pounds ground oats, 100 pounds
ground corn, so pounds tankage, 5
pounds salt, 20 pounds bone meal and
20 pounds of ground limestone. To
this as much liquid buttermilk, sour
skim milk or paste buttermilk as the
birds will consume should be added.
Forty pounds of dried buttermilk can
be substituted for the liquid milk.

Corn Silage Found Best
Substitute for Pasture

Pasture grass is the ideal dairy ra-
tion because of It's succulent and ap-
petizing qualities. In Northern states
the short pasture season makes it nee
essary to provide a substitute Expert
ments at the Indiana station show
very definitely that corn silage is the
best substitute available.
A ration containing a moderate
amount of silage was compared with
one containing no silage, but double
the ordinary amount OF hay. When
silage was withheld, milk production
decreased markedly and the milk and
fat costs were considerably increased.
The most economical production oc-
Cured when silage made up part of
the ration. Body weights were more

DORMANT SPRAY is
URGED FOR SCALE

Spraying orchards for the control
of scale insects, especially the San
Jose scale, should be done during the
dormant season. This means any time
after the leaves drop in the autumn
until the buds open in the spring.
Usually this work is done in the
spring, says the Indiana Farmers
Guide. 1t is reported that San Jose
scale is increasing, principally be-
cause control measures have either
been neglected or the weather con-
ditions have been unfavOrable in the
spring of the year for proper spray
ing.
Spraying to be effective must be
thoroughly done. The entire surface
of the tree or shrub must be COM
pletely covered with the spray mate
rial In the case of trees it may be
necessary to apply the spray when
the wind is In one direction, then go
over the trees again when the wind is
in opposite direction, SO no portion Of
the tree may be missed. A few spots
not reached by the spray may harbor
some of the scale insects and from
these colonies the entire orchard may
be reinfested before the next winter.
The spray materials used for scale
insects are limesulphur and miscible
oils. Both are effective and both have
their advantages and disadvantages.
Some orchardists prefer one and some
the other. Whichever material Is
used, it must be remembered that
proper equipment is essential If a good
job is to be done. A barrel sprayer
is the smallest practical-siZed equip
ment for the farm orchard 1t should
have at least 35 feet of hose with
10-foot rod and 45-degree nozzle.
For large orchards a larger power
pressure should be used
Not only the dormant spray, but the
applications made after the growing
season begins to control other insect
pests and fungous diseases are impOr
tant Fruit from trees which have
been thoroughly sprayed keeps better
because 1t Is clean and healthy and 1t
is disinfected by the covering of spray.
