Clean Up!

The summer is a breeder OF all
sorts of insects. About the poultry
houses millions Of mites and lice will
harbor during the warm days. OF
course the buildings that have been
occupied by fowls have been kept
clear Of these pests Of poultry. But
the houses that have been empty
during the summer, or mostly vacant,
must be looked after with great
resolution this month, or they will
not be fit for the fowls, young or old,
to enter for the winter. Give them
most thoro going over with the most
effective louise killer you can find at
the supply stores. It will require
several treatments during the same
week. A hen pest must not be al
lowed the smallest quarter or he will
surround you and your entire poultry
business and you will be compelled
to surrender. White wash is cheap,
an excellent purifier, and makes
things look five hundred per cent.
better Don't save on this line. Skim
the rich surface of soil off the out
door yards and put it on your garden.
Clean everything up! Dirt and even
filth accumulate so slowly and so sly
ly that we can't "see ourselves as
others see u.s." Dig for the dirt.
Open your eyes wider and behold
how cobwebby, dusty, sticky and
n1oldy everything has gotten during
the summer. Clean 1t up and paint
It up. 1t will make you live again.

or more of the very best birds from
every possible point of view that he
can get hold Of in his financial cir
cumstances. Men who have such a pen
would not sell at any price if they are
in the business to stay.
September is splendid time to
check up on a very special few of
your highest class birds. Hens that
are still laying eggs after II months
of super-work at the nest since the
last molt should be treasured as gold
dust on your place. This one sign
would mean that they are full of
vigor and crammed with the kind of
health that you love to see in every
animal in the world. Chicks Matched
from the eggs Of such eminent layers
should be marked with special care
until they are tested out by full
years work at the nest and in the
health clinics. 1t is by such methods
as these that men get the heavy lay
ing strain" Go to it my brother! You
will be highly rewarded for every
move you make.

"Cull" Your Eggs

Too many poultrymen and women
give no attention to the matter of
sorting their eggs when they prepare
them for market. This is grave
mistake. Test the matter by your
own experience. When you buy a
dozen eggs you like to have them of
good shape and of uniform size. 1t is
exasperating to find two or three or
four eggs in a dozen that are smaller
than the rest, i'll shaped and out Of
harmony with their fellows in color
You simply do not like such a mixture
and muddle. But a dozen eggs of
good and fair size, uniform In color
and shape thruout, will catch your
eye at once. You admire them. You
want them, and you will be willing to
pay q larger price than for the I'M
culled, or unsorted eggs described
above. People are more particular
now than formerly. 1t Is sign Of
progress. We are of finer fiber and
Of higher ideals than were our fore
fathers. That is not saying anything
against our forebears. They did the
best they knew when they lived; but
we are knowing more today than the
people did half a century ago. We
ought to. "Cull'' your eggs, there
fore. If you do not you will suffer
loss. See. how the different brands
of candy are "culled" and put up in
attractive boxes. We are willing to
pay the extra price of the beautiful
cartons" because the stuff looks
so good to us. That's the way with
folks who buy eggs. Keep this in
mind when you pack your eggs for
market.

STOCK NOTES
By G. NJ. Hatch

We drifted over to the Native
State Fair this year for the nineth
time and found matters prosperous
Tor future activities of the good old
association which has fought its way
along for many a year.
The capacious barns were filed
with cattle, sheep and swine and two
stock tents had to be provided to
house the overflow.
Oxen and steers were found in
greater numbers surely than in the
past ~ or IL years and of extra
fine quality.
The towns teams attracted much
attention, that of L. E. Stevens of
Turner winning first honors and it
should be especially pleasing to
residents of kennebec county since
something like half the ~ pairs
shown by Mr.. Stevens, came from
Mt. Vernon. Three pairs were
bought of E. A. Robinson Of that
town. Then two pairs of the steers
came from the farm of Roy Hopkins
OF the same town and big pair of
yearlings were from Mr.. Luce also of
Mt. Vernon.
Roger Bragdon Of Wells and Bert
Weston of Harrison had fine heavy
teams of oxen and steers, some of
which were for the pulling classes
while others were fat and handsome
some of them Shorthorns and sew
eral pairs whitefaces.
These cattle would weigh up to
$500 lbs. and the largest girth 8 feet
inches. The steer team Of Lord &
Pingree Of Denmark was especially
fine.
There are pair of four year ODDS,
three year olds, two year olds, two
pairs of yearlings and three pairs of
calves and all but one pair of these
calves white faces.
The pure bred Hereford herds all
came from Kennebec county and
were owned by j. H. Underwood of
Fayette, Elmer E. Gile of Fayette
and T. g. Burleigh Of vassalboro,
the latter two having been outside
of showing for some three or four
years, but there were blue ribbons
to be found in each mans pens. A
fine show more and better cattl- of
the breed than at any other Maine
show The show of Aberdeen Angus.

Fayette Poultry Club
Field DaY Hosts

A poultry club field day was held
Friday with the Fayette club as host
and the Mt. Vernon club as guests.
The principal speaker was r. n.
Atherton of Sanford, former county
agent, and at present leading poultry
man in York county.
Mr.. Atherton has about 1400 lay
ing hens each season which he cares
for almost entirely himself In the
course of his remarks he stressed the
methods of feeding and made an
especial point of the birds needing
plenty of green feed and proper
range each year as sanitary pre-
cautions against various aid serious
poultry diseases Mr.. Atherton uses
the three-year system 90 range ro-
tation and since he is limited for
ground. only II acres being devoted
to poultry culture, he will carry out
this method with some inconven-
fence next year. Mr. Anterior also
answered many questions of the
poultry people present, covering the
whole range of poultry business.
Mr.. Atherton was followed as a
speaker by Owen Wilbur. extension

A SPECIAL BREEDING PEN

What's the best? Do. you know
You surely ought to. K man ought
to be studying his flock all through
the year. He ought to know if he has
a hen among his birds that will lay
500 eggs in II months and seem to
have the time of her life" all the
way along. She's a treasure. She is
worth more than her weight in silver
dollars.
Any man who keeps 100 hens or
more is certain to have few that are
extra good in all-round points. He
ought to pick out half a dozen Of
these most superior birds and mate
them with the best male bird he can
get hold of even if he has to buy one
at high price. I do not see how
there can be doubt in any ones
mind of the wisdom of this sugges-
ton. I do not put it forward as new,
but as true to the very highest forms
of procedure in poultry culture. Every
man ought to have a special, a very
special, breeding pen Of half a dozen

New Value Discovered
In SprOuted Oats

The feeding of sprouted oats to
animals and fowls has taken on new
Importance as a result of tests which
show that it functions in encouraging
normal breeding habits. Sterility or
barrenness in cows was corrected by
the following experiment.:
Six virgin dairy heifers that had
failed to get the calf after being re-
peatedly served by different sires at
the United States Department of Agri-
culture Dairy Experiment Farm,
Beltsville, Md, were fed sprouted
oats in an effort to correct their bar
rem condition. According to r. r.
Graves, in charge of the experiment,
five of the six heifers were settled in
calf after so days of this special feed
ing. Six dairy cows that had raised
d, calves but had apparently become I'M
able to conceive were fed sprouted
oats also with the result that five of
them got with calf after 10 to 4s days
of feeding. Similar tests made at the
Oregon Experiment Station upon the
suggestion of Mr.. Graves gave equally
favorable results.
Feeding sprouted oats to overcome
non-conception in dairy heifers and
cows was suggested to Mr.. Graves by
study of the work done with small
animals at the University of Califor-
mia in which it was discovered that a
fifth vitamin had bearing on the fer
tility and reproductive organs. This
vitanain, named vitamin E, was found
in such feeds as green leaves Of let
tuce and alfalfa. D..
Whether or not the fertility results
obtained in heifers and cows fed
sprouted oats is due to a vitamin has
not been determined, nor have enough
trials been made to conclude definite
ly that the method will always give
positive results. Mr.. Graves points
out that animals in their undomesti-
Gated state have breeding season
closely allied with the spring flush of
new grass: and that under modern
methods Of management, COWS and
heifers are bred at all times of the
year. Many Of the cases of non-breed.
ing may be due to functional disorders
brought about by high state of do
mesticity in which the natural breed.
ing season is ignored The beneficial
effects of sprouted bats may be due
to the imitation of natural dietary
conditions at the normal breeding sea.

All steel articles can be perfectly
preserved from rust by putting
lump Of freshly burned lime in the
drawer or case in which they are
kept. This is especially valuable for
specimens of iron when fractured, for
in a moderately dry place the lime
will not need renewing for many
years, as it is capable of absorbing
