Good Tips for
Home Gardener
Judicious Use of Manure
and Fertilizer Is of Much
Importance.

AS he prepares his seed-bed for
planting, the wise home gardener
bears in mind that nothing is more
important in making every foot of
the garuen yield its best than the
judicious use of manure and fertilizer.
classed as "cool" manures, and al
though the plant food is not as readily
available as in horse manure, it will
give very good results. Poultry and
sheep manure are dubbed hot" ma
nures, and should be applied very
cautiously, especially on the root or
fruit crops.
When fresh manure Is used, 1t
should be plowed under to depth of
six to eight inches and entirely COW
cred with earth. On the other hand,
II the manure is well-rotted, only half
Of 1t should be plowed under, and the
other half broadcast and raked into
the surface.
Commercial Fertilizers.
If you want the best all-around fer
.tilizer, get what is generally known
as either the 4-S-4 or the 1873. The
term "4-S-4" simply means that the
fertilizer contains 4 per cent ammonia,
8 per cent of phosphoric acid and
4 per cent Of potash. In all fertil-
izers, nitrogen is the first, phosphoric
acid the second and potash the third
number.
One pound to every 25 square feet
Of garden surface is the average ap-
plication OF commercial fertilizer.
Half of this should be broadcast and
raked into the surface ground and
the other half applied under the row,
or hill, as the case may be.
Either nitrate of soda or sulphate of
ammonia is used to give larger leaf
growth on those vegetables which pro-
duce edible leaves, such as lettuce, en-
dive and parsley. Small applications
of about one teaspoonful scattered
around each plant Of tomatoes, cab
bage, eggplants, ETC., or side-dressed
celery, will give better growth in
stalk and better colored leaves.
Where Lime Comes In.
Lime should never be used in d.
rect contact with the manure, because
1t has tendency to liberate the nitro
gen faster than plants can use it.
Practically all garden soils need lime,
however, and would be benefited by
about ten pounds for each 100 square
feet. Any finely pulverized lime is
satisfactory for this. The right time
to apply it is after the manure has
been plowed under. Broadcast and
rake it into the surface soil.

Rats Carried From Town
in Different SHIPMENTS

Many of the rats prevalent in agri-
cultural and poultry-raising sections
are carried from towns to farms in
shipments of dairy and poultry feed,
the biological survey of the United
States Department Of Agriculture has
learned from surveys in these regions.
This emphasizes the nationwide need
for concerted effort between the rural
and urban people as basis for the
efficient control of rats. The problem
calls for widespread coordination Of
effort and the utmost persistence in
the application of repressive meas
ures. United action by representa-
lives of farmers organizations and
chambers of commerce or other civic
organizations is urged by the bureau
In all parts Of the United States

Artificial Light and
Heat Good for Fowls

Artificial heat is the latest modern
addition to poultry management that
may prove successful. Authorities say
practical poultrymen have kept up egg
production during cold snaps by tax
ing the chill off the air and preventing
the drinking water from freezing.
Without lights the hens can only
put in about half the time they have
in the summer to consume feed. Ar
tificial lighting methods have broker
the long periods Of idleness from
darkness to daylight. Given more
working hours. the hen has responded
with larger egg production for the
year. The increase is obtained during
the winter season when eggs are least
plentiful.
An all-mash method of feeding poul.
try has been reported favorably. The
dry feeds are all crushed or ground
and mixed in proper proportions and
fed in a hopper to which the hens
have access.

Keeping Silage From
Freezing Is Easy
First Thing to Do Is to Keep
Silo Tight.

Many farmers who have trouble With
silage freezing blame the trouble on
the type of silo, but careful observers
believe that there is no noticeable diff.
ference among silos as to freezing and
that the trouble is due largely to the
way the silo and silage are managed
How can freezing be prevented?
First of all, the silo must be kept
tight, so that the air above the silage
will act as sort of insulation. The
silo roof must be tight, the windows
kept closed, the silo doors put back in
place as the silage is fed down, only
one or two doors being left open at
the top of the silage, and these open
ings must be kept closed with heavy
blankets or rugs or sacks Of straw
which can be pulled into place when
leaving the silo. A cover over the bot
tom of the chute will also help.
. Then the silage must be handled
properly. 1t should be kept higher in
the center and should be broken loose
from the wall down two or three
inches at the close Of each feeding
period. Two or three heavy rugs or
blankets spread over the. silage, espe-
cially around the walls, will help .
great deal in preventing freezing from
one period to the next. Any small
amount of frozen silage pulled loose
from the wall should be put at the
center of the silo and covered with o
rag or carpet or tarpaulin, and the
natural heat from the silage will usut
ally thaw it out before the next feed.
ing period. 1t should be remembered
that the large body Of silage has quite
a lot of heat and that freezing from
the walls is not very deep or very Sc
we're so long as this heat is kept from
escaping upward.

It's easy to haul lime in winter on a

High priced protein feeds mean that
we should grow more alfalfa and
clover.
More than twenty million forest
trees were planted in New York state

Well Grown Pullets Are
Best for Eggs in Winter

Winter egg production is largely
obtained from the pullets that are
well grown, properly fed and carrying
surplus Of flesh. Old hens that have
produced eggs for one laying year
normally rest during the winter and
start laying in February and March,
advises D. G. Henderson, extension
poultry specialist at South Dakota
state college.
Mr.. Henderson advises keeping a
flock consisting of two-thirds pullets
and one third hens. The pullets should
be forced for winter egg production
through liberal mash feeding. The old
hens should be allowed to rest during
the winter and kept for the produc-
ton of Matching eggs next spring.

Green Feeds Essential
for Health of Poultry

During the last cold spells of the
season many cases of leg weakness in
hens that have been laying heavily
are reported. These are usually
traceable to the fact that the owner
has run out of green food. Such
foods contain what is technically
known as vitamines. When they are
exhausted from the birds body she
begins to suffer. If green feed is
given the bird will soon recover. Cab
bage, sprouted grains or even steamed
alfalfa leaves are benefcial.-O. c..

Dormant Spray for Cherries

Sour cherries will not often require
a dormant spray, but If needed the
spray recommended for peaches may
be used. The sprays are applied as
follows, using lime-sulphur 11s to 80
or bordeaux $3.50 plus one pound OF
arsenate of lead: Make the first spray
just before the cherry trees bloom,
the second when the shucks are drop
ing from the young fruit, and third
spray following the second in about
two weeks. To control cherry leaf
spot, about two additional sprays
should be applied after harvest. The
interval between them should be about
three weeks.

New Japanese Pest

Indications of an entirely new
American pest in New York and New
Jersey have been received by the
United States Department of Agricul'
ture. The species is a scarab OF
beetle of Japanese origin, and is the
third scarab that has been intro
duced from Japan. 1t is suggested
that entomologists be on the lookout
for it. Unlike the other two species
which have been introduced, it is not
of striking appearance. 1t is small
brown scarab which specifically re
sembles number of the species OF
the genus Serica.

Select Vigorous Males

In selecting males to be retained
as breeders, vigor should be one of
the primary considerations, The vigor
of the male, as well as the female,
will be reflected in the hatchability
of the eggs and the Inability of the
chicks. Although early maturity
should be sought for in the heavier
breeds, it should not be emphasized
to the detriment of size. Males which
mature exceptionally early may be
understood individuals and not de-
sirable for breeding.
