NEW YORK, September 1.-How
ultra violet radiation, used on sick hui
mans, saved the lives Of five valuable
and desperately Ill animals in the
New York Geological Park, Is told by
DR.. Charles v. Noback of the depart.
ment of comparative medicine.
His furry patients consisted Of a
red bowling monkey. a grivet monkey
and three lemurs. which are small ami
mails belonging to the same order as
monkeys, but lower in the evolution
ary scale. They are all expensive ami
mails, and their threatened death from
cage paralysis" which Is a disease
very similar to ricketts, in human be-
ings, was regarded by the zoo authori.
ties as a genuine impending calamity.
When they had reached state in
which they refused all food and could
hardly move, DIR. Noback was called In.
The helplessness of the animals at
the outset simplified the treatment.
DIR. Noback simply placed his quartz
tube mercury vapor lamp behind their
bowed and immobile backs and turned
on the current. without needing to
tic or constrain them in any way.
The treatment was kept up for a
month in the case of the red howiing
monkey. and from three to four weeks
with the others. In all cases the stiff
ness and decrepitude that marks the
disease in it's extreme stages soon
disappeared. the eyes became bright
again, the hair glossy and the patients
displayed a manifest renewal Of their
interest in food.
DIR. Noback notes that the doses of
the rays to which he subjected the
hair-covered skins Of his animals were
much more intense than those intend

Storing Vegetables in
Cellar or Burying Them

Beets, turnips, carrots, satisfy, and
rutabagas can be stored by burying
them in the soil or by placing damp
earth around them in a cool, frost
proof cellar. Cellar storage serves to
keep the roots in crisp and tender
condition if a cool temperature can
be maintained.
convenient container of about the
capacity of an apple box is necessary.
The vegetables should be pulled late
in the fall, topped about an inch from
the crown, and packed in the con-
tainer in layers Of garden soil or
sand.
These root crops may also be stored
in the field where they are grown. A
well-drained location should be chosen
and about three inches of straw put
on the ground. The roots are then
piled on the straw in a cone-shaped
pile. The heap Is covered with two
or three inches of straw with the
center drawn together to a height Of
about a foot above the top roots and
tied together to form a chimney. This
chimney should be about five inches
in diameter. 1t Is necessary to carry
off foul air and gases. The straw is
of soil. AS the weather gets colder,
more soil may be added to prevent
freezing.

Hogging Off Corn Best
Method of Harvesting

Tests made at the South Dakota
State college indicate that hogging
off corn is profitable method of har-
vesting the corn crop even In normal
crop years and in dry seasons much
corn which would hardly be worth
picking can be harvested in this man.
ner with little trouble.
Before turning the hogs into the
field, according to the department of
animal husbandry at state college,
especially if they have been getting a
limited grain ration, it is advisable
to feed new corn in the lot for a few
days. This will help to prevent them
going off feed, due to consuming a
large amount of new corn, just after
they are turned into the field.
Experience at state college indi-
Gates that hogs having the run Of the
cornfeld will make just as good gains
as hogs fattened in the feedlot. Pigs
of 80 to 40 pounds are best for hog
ging off corn inasmuch as they are
better rustlers than heavier hogs.
Pigs of this weight are also large
enough to clean up the field in bet
ter shape than pigs of lighter weight.

Agricultural Facts

1t costs 50 year to feed rat.
Invite the sunshine to come into
your poultry house.
Minerals are of great Importance.
1t has been proved that pure limestone,
bone meal and charcoal are beneficial.
The bullsnake is beneficial to agri-
culture because 1t has the habit of
dining upon pocket gophers, rats and
mice.
Eggs easily absorb odors, because
the shell is porous, so store them
where they will not become contami-
mated.
Four billion pounds more milk was
produced in the United States during
1926 than, in 1925.
With proper attention alfalfa will
furnish grazing for hogs during three
or four seasons before it becomes nee
essary to reseed. 1t must not be
grazed so closely that the. stand is
injured.
Chickens of all ages consume rel
atively small amounts of feed and the
results that can be secured from prop
erly balanced rations are to marked
that the subject deserves most care
full study.
In less acute forms of fowl cholera
the affected birds show loss Of appe.
tite, appear droopy or drowsy and
diarrhea is present, with the drop-
pings appearing greenish or greenisb
yellow in color.
Eating eggs is vicious habit and
when hens contract the habit 1t is DIE
ficult to break them. An exposed egg
on the floor of the poultry house or n
broken soft-shelled egg generally
starts the habit.

Modern Machinery Calls -
for ADEQUATE Housing

Modern farming calls for a great
variety of modern machinery. The
equipment runs well toward $1,000
for the average farm of the United
States. That means that the value
of farm machinery runs much higher
in the corn belt states. Taking the
average value at only $3.50 per farm
for the entire country, it means for
the 100000 farms an investment of
$4,500,0O0000. 1t is such stupendous
sum that the mind cannot compre-
bend it. At six per cent, the interest
on this gigantic sum amounts to
$27O,OOO,OOO.
Bringing this to the Individual
farm we find that the interest charge
is nearly $50 per year, and on most
of our farms it Is much more. Ma
chine manufacturers tell us that we
could easily reduce the cost of our
machinery bills by one-half. How?
By proper care. And the most i'm
portant item in the care of machinery
Is housing.

In storing feed a silo built above
the ground is to be preferred" Pro-
fessor Fitch declared. But pit and
trench silos are inexpensive, easily
built with home labor, and they have
proven satisfactory in parts of the
state where drainage is not a serious
problem. Farmers who want informa-
ton on building silos should see their
county agent or write to the Kansas

Supply Before Putting Away
for the Winter.

Beekeepers are advised by Francis
jaeger, chief of the division of bee
culture, University of Minnesota, to
feed 10-pound pail of sugar strip
to every colony of bees, regardless
of weight, before putting them away
for the winter. This sugar strip
should be made Of two parts Of sugar
and one part of water, boiled for 40
minutes, with an ounce Of tartaric
acid to every 100 pounds Of sugar.
While the general condition Of bee
colonies is good, winter stores are of
rather doubtful quality. The dark fall
honey may be mixed with honey dew
which is poisonous to the bees.
Most beekeepers of Minnesota win
ter their bees in cellars. A good win

Many Have Proved Useful
in Killing Mice. Rats
and Gophers.

To learn exactly to what extent GER
tain birds are aids to agriculture and
to determine whether their good quail
ties overbalance the evil they do, the
biological survey of the United States
Department of Agriculture has for
many years been making scientific
studies of their food habits. All that
can be learned out of doors by watch
ing the birds Is valuable, but the sure
way Of finding out what bird eats
is to examine the contents of its
stomach to identify what is found.
Utility of Bird Is Estimated.
W. L. McAtee, biologist in the bu-
lining the stomach content of a bird.
1T consists of washing all material
into white-lined tray. separating the
larger particles on white blotters,
catching the more finely ground food
on a boiling cloth, transferring this
to blotters, and finally identifying the
component parts of the whole under
microscope. Identification is facili-
tated by comparison with collections
of seeds, fruit, insects, snails and
bones of birds, mammals, reptiles and
amphibianS; in fact, of all classes Of
objects eaten by birds. A card pre-
pared for each stomach contains full
inventory of food items and their rela-
tive percentages by bulk, and when
sufficient number of these index
cards have been accumulated for any
species of bird the percentages of the
principal items of food for each month
are calculated, and the average for
the season or year Is taken. These
are the figures quoted in official re-
ports on the food of BIRDS From the
percentages and the economic value
of the food items the utility of the
bird can be closely estimated"
Injurious Owls and Hawks.
1t is on the basis of such informa-
ton that the biological survey has
been able to combat prejudices against
certain birds, such as hawks and owls.
The sharp-shinned, Cooper and duck
hawks feed largely on birds and are
injurious. The great horned owl gets
only poultry that Is Improperly eX-
posed at night, but is otherwise bene-
cial. The remaining species of hawks
and owls, more than fifty in all, have
chiefly useful habits. They feed on
a great variety of rodents and have a
tremendous effect In controlling the
number of these pests. The barn owl
is one of the most useful of birds
Large percentages of mice, rats and
pocket gophers are noted on the feed,
ing cards, showing that the barn owl
is constantly doing work of great
value to agriculture. Owls as group
have long been prosecuted by man, but
never has persecution been more I'M
just. When their numbers are greatly
reduced in any community farmers
will be forcibly reminded of the fact
by great increase In the number of
destructive rodents.
