Winter Layers
Help the Profits

This is very pertinent question in
the northwest particularly where
large quantities of sprays have been
applied in an effort to keep the cod
ling moth in check. The growers
seem to be faced with the options of
removing the excess spray material
before the fruit is marketed, to use
less arsenic, or else to substitute some
other spray for insect control.
The following suggestions are made
as a result of the preliminary work
that has been under way. The re-
moyal of spray residue by wiping and
brushing has not been entirely salts
factory. No form of mechanical
cleansing thus far tested has proved
effective under all conditions. More
or less injury to the fruit and the
spread of decay organisms may result
Experiments with solvents have
shown that certain acids and bases
will remove spray residues in varying
degrees of effectiveness. OF the many
compounds tested, none has proved to
be superior to hydrochloric acid. 1t
was found to be effective in removing
not only arsenicals, but also such
forms of residue as lead, copper and
lime, and has not injured the fruit
when properly applied.

Particularly Wise to Arrange
House for Machinery.

Construction of the necessary out
houses and sheds and repairing the
barns and other buildings is a good
job to occupy ones attention before
cold weather comes.
The buildings usually constructed
during the late fall consist of imple-
ment sheds, poultry houses and hog
houses, states Prof. David S. Weaver,
agricultural engineer. Where concrete
foundations or floors are to be used,
1t is best to put these in before hard
freezing weather comes.
"This work is not expensive when
the labor on the farm is used" says
Professor Weaver. 1.-THE prospective
builder should talk the matter over
with his lumber dealer and see how
little cash it takes to put up shed
in which to house the machinery. We
find that there is a depreciation of
about 10 per cent each winter in that
machinery allowed to stand uncovered
and exposed to the weather. Some
times, this amount of depreciation on
high-priced machinery will pay for
constructing the building in which it
should be housed"
Repairs are necessary, also, espe-
cially in the dairy barns. Professor
Weaver states that the less food re-
quired to maintain the body heat of

piece of work already has it half
done.
1t is good practice to treat timbers
that are exposed to the weather with
creosote to prevent decay.
The potato crop is as important as
it is uncertain. A good crop with good
prices makes it very valuable.
Petroleum or mineral Oil should
never be used for oiling harness,
shoes, or any kind of leather, as the
mineral oil has tendency to rot the
leather.
Parasites take heavy toll on the
poultry flock during the summer
months. Red mites and body lice are
the chief offenders and should be
guarded against.
Keep after the weeds. A few ticks
now will finish them for the season.
Hoe the joint grass before it gets hold
of the soil. 1t won't be so easy once
the joints get start.
There are many new wrinkles In
fertilizers being put into commerce as
a result of experiment station work.
Urea is reported as the greatest nitro
gen-carrying fertilizer yet developed.
Authorities say that the price being
paid for milk iustifies feeding the
best producers to get few more
pounds each dag. Weigh the feed:
weigh the milk; keep pencil and
tally sheet near the scales.

Poultry Prices Usually High
est During Fall and
Early Winter.
prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculturel

ment of Agriculture.)
Prices of farm eggs as well as of
live and dressed poultry are usually
highest during fall and the early win
ter months. Profits from the farm
flock can be materially increased by
taking advantage of this market situa-
ton in handling the flock, says the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture. Timing production to the mar
ket demand can be accomplished best
by Matching early and by having early
maturing strains.
Revenue From Eggs.
Most of the revenue from the farm
flock is obtained from eggs. 1t is i'm
portant, therefore, to develop the flock
from good laying strains. This re-
quires careful selection of hens that
mature early, that lay best after they
begin, that seldom go broody, and that
lay well throughout the late summer
and fall.
The size of the flock is an impor-
tant factor to consider also. Main
tanning about 200 or 400 birds enables
the flock to be divided to advantage
for breeding purposes. A flock of 2OO,
for instance, can readily be divided
into two units, so yearlings and $50
pullets; and flock of 400 into 100
yearlings and two units of $50 pullets
each. The pullets are used primarily
for egg production and the yearlings
for breeding purposes. Yearlings are
preferable to pulIets as breeders be-
cause usually they lay larger eggs,
which hatch into bigger chicks. More
over, the yearling hens have gone
through a mott the preceding fall, and
thus have had a rest prior to the
breeding season, and for that reason
they usually produce stronger chicks
than pullets. A still more important
reason for using yearlings as breed
ers is that they should be only the
best birds of the pullet flock of the
preceding laying year, and the con-
tinuous selection from year to year
should assist greatly in improving the
quality of the pullets raised each
year. Farmers should give more at
tenIlOn TO the selection or their breed
ing stock every year and flock units
of about 200 or 400 birds will enable
them to do this to advantage.
! Hatch PuIlets Early.
Since pullets normally do not begin
laying until they are at least seven
months old, it is important that they
be Matched early enough to permit
laying during the season of high
prices-from October to February.
These and other points of interest to
the farm flock owner are discussed in

for distribution. Copies may be OBJ

HAY for Colts

A colt from six months to year in
age should have about all the hay he
will clean up, preferably good clover
free from dust. If clover or alfalfa
hay is not available, then timothy hay
will be necessary. For grain, feed
about 1 pound of oats to every 100
pounds of live weight of the colt. If
you wish faster growth put small
allowance of linseed oiimeal with the
oats. II IS also advisable to allow
the colt a carrot or two every day If
you have tiem; it will keep him in
shape.

Bullnose in Pigs

Bullnose occurs in young pigs up to
six months old. The snout or nose is
short and wide or enlarged; the
breathing is labcred, with a snuffling
noise, when fed or exercised; later
the difficult breathing occurs all the
time. There may be mucus or bloody
discharge from the nose, and periodic
attacks of suffocation. 1t is said to
be due to congenital defects in short
nosed swine, also to foreign bodies
getting into the nose and to germs
such as the green pus germ.

Foundation Stock Most
Important Turkey Item

In deciding on the breed of turkeys
one will encounter the same kind of
problem as deciding on breed Of
chickens, or other live stock, except
that with turkeys there are fewer
breeds, so the task should be an easier
one. Whatever breed you decide up
on, select birds as near standard, or
even larger if possible, providing, Of
course, you do not forget type. Length
of shank and thigh, if out of proper
ton, should not be mistaken for size.
Good length with full, rounded body
and breast indicates value. Size and
strength of bone indicate constitution
al vigor, which should be maintained
through the selection of the best at all
times.

Oats to Eaten Lambs

That oats equals corn for fattening
western lambs is shown in the CO.
operative tests just completed by the
Agricultural Experiment station at
Purdue. These two popular midwest
grains were fed in rations containing
cottonseed meal, corn silage and
clover hay. Oats not only proved it's
value as a substitute for corn, but re-
placed over 40 per cent Of the rough
age in the ration as well. Common
opinion has indicated that oats has
never equaled corn for fattening
lambs.
