Take Inventory of Farm
When Least to Figure

The best time TO take farm IN
ventory is when the least figuring has
to be done. For general crop ana
stock farms. this is usually between
January l and when the spring work
starts. For poultry farms, the best
time to take 1t probably is just after
the pullets have been put in winter
quarters. For those who have TO COM
ply with the income tax regulations,
January 1 is the best date.
No specific date is set for taking
such an inventory. but any convenient
time will do if it is taken approx
mately the same time each year, ac-
cording to the farm management de-
partment of the New York State Col
lege Of Agriculture at Ithaca, \. Y.
The inventory should include real
estate. horses, cattle. sheep, hogs,
poultry, farm tools and equipment, and
supplies on hand such as hay, straw,
grain and silage.
In placing values, a conservative
estimate of what an animal or ar
ticle would sell for, with reason
able length Of time in which to dis
pose of it, is the best basis. This
is about comparable to what it would
bring at a well-attended farm auction.
After inventorying all the farm
property, list other assets such as lib
erty bonds. certificates of indebted
ness. receivable bills and cash. Shares
of stock in corporations should be in
Guided at market value
After inventorying all resources, list
debts such as mortgages, notes, and
bills owed, including win the notes
and mortgages the dates of maturity.
After a complete list Of all that
is owed is made, make summary
showing the total value of each kind
Of farm property.
Compute the total resources, and
from this subtract the total liabilities.
This, then, represents the net worth
or the true financial standing.

Feeding Meat Animals
Profitable Side Line

In several counties in New York
state, especially those within a 50-mile
radius of Buffalo, the feeding of west
ern-raised lambs and steers during the
winter is proving a profitable side
line. 1t has the big advantage Of
distributing labor more evenly through
out the year, uses up coarse roughage,
and provides manure for farms which
do not maintain a dairy.
1t is a somewhat hazardous enter
prise, however, subject to wide market
fluctuations and TO losses as a result
Of improper feeding, and even to oc-
casional heavy losses from disease.
Disease and parasites, according to
the New York State College of Agri-
culture, are especially troublesome
with respect to sheep.
The college has given some study to
these problems and is prepared TO
offer practical advice to farmers this
winter through farmers Institutes and
other meetings held in each county I'M
der the auspices of local farm bureaus.

One Big Factor Is Cleanli-
ness in Storehouse.

prepared by the United States Department
OF Agricultural
Cleanliness in the storehouse and
granary is one Of the most important
factors in the control Of the eadelle, a
grain pest known all over the world
and first described in 175S, says the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. The habit of the larvae Of bur
rowing into wooden floors, partitions
and walls of bins, storehouses, and
ships, accounts for much Of the loss
occasioned by fresh supplies becoming
infested when placed in storage space
formerly occupied by infested ma
terial
A history of the cadelle, its distribu-
ton, and information concerning its
control are contained in Department
Bulletin No. 142SD. just issued by the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. The pest is usually associated in
its attack upon food products with
other grain pests. In the case OF
package goods, such as breakfast
foods. the holes it bores in the cartons,
give other and smaller pests avenues
Of attack upon foods that otherwise
might remain free from infestation.
The cadelle in all stages can be
killed by fumigation with carbon disul-
phide, from six TO eight pounds per
thousand cubic feet of bin space being
used where bins are tight. Carbon
tetrachloride, has the advantage over
carbon disulphide in that its vapor is
nonexplosive and noninfiammaole, but
1t has the disadvantage of being about
one-half to one-third as effective and
must therefore be used in larger guam
titles.
On farms where grain bins are usLal-
~ constructed of wood, hardwood
should be used in preference to soft
woods, and the construction made as
tight as possible. Bins should be in

given in winter, after the flies have
finished their egg laying. Suggestions
for control or eradication of horse
bots by community effort are outlined
in this bulletin.
In certain sections where control
work against horse bots has been In
progress, many farmers declare that
the number of cases of collie and other
digestive disturbances has been great

better flesh on the same feed than
was possible before control work be-

Tell Sex in TURKEYS

It is difficult to distinguish sex in
turkeys while young. For long time
the sexes look alike, but gradually
the male becomes more carunculated
on the head and neck, the '-tassel" on
the breast begins to appear on the
male, and its wings viii occasionally
be opened and tipped to the ground,
as In "strutting." even when it ap-
parently is but chick. Later on. the
neck is thicker and the carriage more
erect, until the difference is quite
plain to the eye

Crops In a Pasture

A pasture is expected to produce
only such plants as animals like, such
as Bermuda, Lespedeza and white
clover. When something grows in the
pasture which animals won't eat read

Light in Scratching Shed

Different poultrymen are building
their scratching shed or house with
one or two small windows at the rear
of the house so that the chickens have
light to work there. This keeps the
litter worked out from the walls, and
increases the visible scratching area.

Dear Troubled Mother: You
have legal grounds for divorce, and
are entitled to the relief provided
by law, if that is what you want to
do. Let your decision be influenced
by what is best for the baby. Meth
er is it right for you to be a burden
on your mother.
Remember that divorce is not a
panacea. It carries its price. If
you are willing to pay by working
hard and supporting yourself and
by being both father and mother
to your child, then you have a right
to your freedom, for the law does
not require a woman to live with
man who beats her cruelty.
You say that you have tried ev-
erything that you know to make
things right. Have you tried talk
ing the matter over with your hus-
band, and finding out whether or
not he wants to lose you and the
baby? If he does not want his home
broken up, perhaps you could come
to some sort of compromise.
always hesitate to advise divorce
where there are children, though in
some cases, divorce is the lesser of
evils. I can not tell you positively
what to do because I do not know
you well enough.
When you have tried everything
yon know to save your home, then
try all over again, and if this fails,
you will know you have done all you
could.

GIRL ABOUT
TOWN
by MARILYNN-

Had an interesting talk with
Catherine Bailey about DUSTY An
swer," by Rosamond Lehman. It's
curious book. A motif of 1.-THE
Captive" runs through it, but more
subtly, less stridently done. Deli
cate sheer writing of finenesS of
texture that reminds you Of old
Chinese embroideries-soft and
filmy with riot of gorgeous color
ing and interlaced scrolls. Yes. all
of that.
But we both agreed that we are
getting frightfully fed up on the
interpretive mystical heroine who
turns herself inside out for minute
and precious analysis.
"They blame all this arduous self
analysis and dedication of the in
dividual personality on the after
math of the war;" observed the
sage, Catherine. But, my word!
Aren't we about done with that?"
We're growing impatient with this
tendency to mystical vaporizing. We
want action. Lots of the hard old
external problems. We're not in
the least interested in all this
pseudo-mysticism."
For all that DUSTY Answer" forms
a lovely pattern on the mind; I
think there's must truth in Cathe-
rine's criticism. 1t may seem an
anomaly to say of a modern novel,
but really, my dear, that over-at-
tentuated mood of interpretive
self examination is nothing but a

Dor resentment than it is to
love enemies. But in this case,
| believe if the woman could
be big enough to try once more
that she would find it worth her
while.
Love and forgiveness not only
enrich the nature of the one who
experiences them, but sometimes
they work a mircale in the person
toward whom they are directed.
That is what I hope for in this
case.
1t is true that the husband in this
instance has erred very grossly,
but he has turned from his way
ward course now, and is treating his
wife well. Moreover, there are three
little children in the case who
need their own father and mother
and their own home.
Now if this woman could forget
herself and think only of these
children, it would be easier for
her. If she herself is eplotionally
dead to her husband, she could at
least get interested in retaining
the father of her children.
