1900 Have Pledged to
Use Only Purebred Sires

The last report TO progress in live
stock improvement under the syste-
matte Better Sires-Better Stock"
plan conducted by the Bureau of Ami
NAL Industry of the United States De.
partment of Agriculture and various
states shows 17,O47 participants. Some
of these persons have large herds and
flocks, while others are beginners, but
all have agreed to use nothing but
purebred sires for all classes of live
stock raised.
The report, which summarizes prog
ress to January /, 1927, shows that
three new counties took up the work
during the last three months. These
new centers of activity were Pisca-
taquis, Maine; Breathitt, Kentucky,
and Cascade, Montana. In the last
named county the Is newly enrolled
participants owned among them more
than 1000 cattle and 5000 sheep.
During the last three months per-
iod Of activity, Campbell County, Ken
lucky, of which Gordon B. Nance is
county agent, qualified for the honor
roll of counties containing 100 or. more
livestock owners enrolled in this pro-
gressive means for improving the do
nestle animals in the country. The
list of such counties, several of which
have more than 500 persons so en-
rolled, now totals "A distributed
among 10 states.
The outstanding achievement during
the calendar year in the better-sires
campaign was the success of Union
County. Kentucky, in eradicating all
grade and scrub bulls, thereby being
the first county in the United States
to achieve this much-sought distinc-
ton. Persons participating in the
campaign receive suitably engrossed
certificate of recognition and also, on
request, an attractive barn sign en-
titled "Purebred Sires Exclusively
Used on This Farm" 1t is litho-

duct and progress of the work may

Self-Feeding Reduces
Hog Production Costs

Self-feeding of sOws and their lit
tiers not only saves time needed for
other farm operations, but also gives
more satisfactory results, say animal
husbandry experts of the United
States Department of Agriculture.
During tests carried on by the de-
partment both sows and pigs kept in
the settled lots looked better and
were more thrifty than those in the
handled lots.
When hogs of any age have constant
access to self-feeders there is prac-
tically no danger of their overeating,
according to Farmers Bulletin 1504-F,
"Self-Feeding versus Hand-Feeding
Sows and Litters." This is of con-
siderable Importance in the case of
sows which are sucking their litters
An additional advantage of the self
feeder system is the freedom from
overcrowding at the feeders which is
usual when hand feeding is practiced.
The general plan of feeding the self
fed lots was to supply certain feeds in
the self-feeders which were constant
ly accessible both to the sows and
their pigs. The sows and pigs in the
handled lots were given twice daily
all they would readily eat of Identical
ly the same feeds as were contained
in the self-feeders for the settled lots.
1t is advisable to raise two litters
year from sows more than year old
on farms having sufficient equipment,
thereby reducing the overhead ex-
pense per pig.
Details concerning the tests are
given in the new publication, a copy
of which may be obtained free, as
long as the supply lasts, upon appli-
cation to the Department of Agricul-
ture, Washington, D. C..

occur within his jurisdiction.
This legislation is of invaluable
assistance to the manufacturers
of repute, whose products are above
the technical specifications. It re-
lieves them Of the unfair COMPETE
ton formerly in olved and also
from bearing the brunt of any
stigma that would be attached to
the industry caused by poor and
ineffective insecticides. 1t also re-
duces, to an extent as to be wholly
negligible, any risk connected with
the use of commercially prepared
insecticides.
This reason, along with the diff
ficulties encountered in the making
of his own insecticides, the time
saved to the other farm activities
and the expense Of adequate as
sistance, make it to the advantage
of the grower to rely on the
marketed preparations. which. have
such q high standard Of
uniform value.

Banner Tree Planting
Year Seen for Idaho

UNIVERSITY OF IDAHO, Moscow
A banner tree-planting season in Idaho
is in prospect, according to officials
of the school of forestry here.
For the last several years the Gem
state has been forging to the lead
among Pacific coast states in the mat
ter of planting trees for ornamental
and woodlot purposes, and this year
the volume of orders received at the
forestry school is greater than ever be-
fore.
Numerous communities are now tax
ing up tree-planting as a project
through club and other agencies.
Kiwanis, Rotary and other such organ
izations are recognizing this oppor-
tunity for service. Standpoint Kiwan-
ians recently took up the campaign.
HALEY people are making concerted
move through their commercial club
and their county agricultural agent.
The city of Rigby is making a. COM
1AAOAio"CAO oIetlI ILLS oPIlAS. LeWlS
county is identifying it's school
grounds by planting trees. There are
numerous other instances.
1t is pointed out at the school of
forestry that such campaigns need not
be confined to beautifying cities alone.
A speaker recently suggested that
Idaho would do well to follow the lead
of Pennsylvania in the matter of road
side tree planting. Many barren, sun
blistered stretches of road, skirted by
irrigation bitches could be made
boulevards in few years by the plant
ing of rows of trees along the bitches,
he said.
Shipping of trees from the university
has just begun and it will be continued
until the season is toofar advanced
for planting. Under the Clarke-Mc-
Nary act of 1924 the school of forestry
furnishes planting stock for woodlots
for one-half the cost of production.
The University of Idaho now has one
of the largest state-controlled nurL
series in the west and is well equipped
to supply material for banner ,plant-
ing year. The university leased an adj
ditional 27-acre tract last December,
bringing the total size of it's arboretum
and commercial nursery to 40 acres

When done with the aid of canned
foods, the preparation of the supper
is very easy. Cold or jellied con-

is a good first course. The piece dc
