escaped bushes are being found in
natural and planted wooded
areas. Many local areas of rusted
grain have been found during the
season and, in practically every
case, nearby barberry bushes
were found to be the source of
infection.
No doubt, many common bar
berry bushes and seedlings still
exist in the barberry eradication
area, says Doctor Kempton,> and
these must be found and des-
troyed. 1t is evident, he says,
that barberry eradication is a ma
terial aid in the solution Of the
stem-rust problem. Stem rust has
been controlled in the eastern
group of the barberry States by
removal of the bushes, and cpl
denies seem to be less severe
generally in the last few years. In
many localities the elimination
of barberries has already so re-
stem-rust losses that it is
again possible to grow grain
where it formerly had been
abandoned because of rust.

SIZE UP EACH EAR

The best way to select seed corn
is from the stalks standing where
they grow. AS soon as the crop
natures and before the first hard
frost, go through the field with a
picking bag and husk the ears
from the stalks that have pro-
duced the most good corn without
having had any special advanta-
ges, such as excess Of space, moist
ure, or fertility. Avoid late-ma-
turing ears which are heavy
because of excessive sap and ears
from down, smutted or otherwise
diseased plants. Select seed from
normal, healthy plants that have
produced most heavily in compe-
tition with a full stand of vigorous
plants, and from plants that n
neither too early MOI too late
maturing for the conditions
where the corn is to be grown.

LESS HAULING

The self-feeder system for hogs
which permits them to eat grain
at will either in pastures or dry
lots is becoming increasingly pop
ular. Some hog raisers build a
crib or bin in the pasture in which
they store a quantity of grain, to
avoid hauling it to the hogs daily.
The quantity of grain required
will vary with the forage crop
used. With soybeans, cowpeas,
peanuts, and velvet beans, which
are hogged off when the seed is
mature or nearly mature, less
grain will be needed than with
green forage such as oats, chufas,
sweet potatoes, and clover. The
self-feeder may be used safely,
however, with all crops. Healthy
hogs that have as much feed as
they will consume give good re-
turns for all they eat.

EGG MAKING

For the most profitable results
in egg production feed simple
mixtures composed of home.
grown grains and their Iby-pro-
ducts, supplemented with meat OF
fish scrap or milk, such as a
scratch mixture of 2 parts cracked
corn and n part wheat, and a
mash of 2 parts corn meal and l
part each of meat scrap, bran and
middlings.
Meat scrap or some other ami
NAL feed high in protein is the
one essential constituent of the
mash which can not well be omit
ted. In a series of experiments
a pen of pullets, on free range,
which did not get meat scrap or
any other animal-protein feed,
laid only 80 eggs each in a year,
compared with yields of from
125 to $50 eggs from pens fed
rations containing meat scrap.
Fish meal or fish scrap can be
used to replace the meat scrap and
compares favorably with a good
grade of meat scrap containing
the same per cent of protein.
Skim milk or buttermilk, either
sweet or sour, is excellent for re-
placing part or all of the meat
scrap. The milk may be used in
mixing the mash if a moist mash is
fed, or it can be kept before the
fowls as a drink. If clsibbered and
fed thick or like cheese, hens will
eat enough of it to replace all
the meat scrap needed.
If table scraps and cooked vege-
tables are used, it may be possible
to reduce the amount of the meat
feed from one-third to one-half,
depending on the quantity of
meat products in the scraps.
The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1926-09-09

Feed the scratch mixture twice
daily, preferably in litters from
8 to 5 inches deep on the floor
of the henhouse, using about
one-third of the daily allowance
in the morning and the remainder
in the afternoon. A mash may
be fed either dry or moist, the
dry form being commonly used.
The mash should not be sloppy.
