Control Cabbage Worms
by the Use of Poison

Cabbage worms and cabbage aphids
usually make their appearance about
this season of the year in more or less
destructive numbers. Farmers will
find cheap and effective remedy for
controlling the pests in the use of lead
arsenate and nicotine.
The most effective mixture is one
containing Is parts of powdered lead
arsenate to 100 parts of Migrated lime
This is busted on the plants and does
not in any way impair the use of the
cabbage for human food, it is said.
Repeated doses of the poison dust
are necessary during the season, par
ticularly when the heads are forming,
if really effective control is to be Sc
cured.
Where cabbage aphids are present
in any appreciable numbers, it is sug-
gested that l per cent nicotine be add
ed to the poison dust This will rid
the plants of the lice at the same time
that protection is provided against the
ravages of the cabbage worms.

Suckering Corn Costly
Practice for Gardener

Suckering sweet corn is a practice
handed down from time immemorial.
Gardeners have gone on removing
suckers, never doubling that 1t in
creased yield and quality. Recent ex-
periments by H. c. Thompson, Cornell
university, proved this practice not
profitable either in increasing the
yields or quality.
The work was carried on for five
years and showed that with varieties
which do not sucker heavily, there
was no evidence of injury from the
practice, nor any decided advantage.
With types which grow many suckers,
suckering didn't increase yield ma
terially, but added to the cost So to

Eelter for Hay
Good Investment
Prevents Losses to Stack Bot
toms and Tops and Is
Not Expensive.

Losses due to spoilage of stack
bottoms and tops may be largely
avoided by using some kind of hay
barn." Walter G. Ward, extension
architect of the Kansas State Agricul-
tural college, advises farmers. Fer
tunately shelter for hay does not
require expensive construction. Where
the hay shed is to be located in the
field or any place not intended for
feeding direct, pole construction Is
very satisfactory. Hay sheds, of
course, are made in many different
sizes and types, but for average con-
ditiens, width of "a feet will be
found convenient. 1t Is wide enough
to be economical in construction, but
not so wide as to require much hand
labor, in handling hay with carrier"
Greatest Item of Cost.
AS the roof represents the greatest
item of cost, hay shed should be
made fairly high, Ward suggests. The
side walls may well be 20 feet or
more in height.
AS the rigidity of an open pole shed
is dependent largely on the poles, they
should be set or 5 feet in the
ground. They may be spaced from
u to 16 feet apart, so it does not
require many of them to construct a
hay shed of coed size.
While some hay sheds are built
without covering the side walls, it is
a good practice to cover them part
way down to prevent rain and snow
from blowing on the hay when only
partly filed If the side walls are 20
feet high, the lower s to IL feet may
usually be left open without much
spoilage. A cheap grade of lumber,
or galvanized iron may be used on
the walls.
Plans Available.
Plans are available in blue print
form for two well established types of
hay barns. These may be seen in any
farm bureau Office in Kansas or copies
may be secured from the rural en-
cheering department, Kansas State
Agricultural college, Manhattan. The
plan for the pole hay shed costs 20
cents and the feeding barn 80 cents.

Haul and Spread Manure
on Glover or Grass Sod

Manure loses something of it's value
every day it is kept. 1t is never bet
ter than the day it is made. Losses
that occur in the barnyard may be
partly saved if the manure is hauled
out at once and spread on a clover or
grass sod. There may be some loss
from washing or teaching, but most of
this will be deposited somewhere in
the field. The Ohio station has dem
onstrated that. 1t has shown that
eight tons of manure hauled fresh
from the stable and spread on clover.

Substituting Silage for
Hay Found Satisfactory

A number of agricultural colleges
have carried out tests to find out the
ACCESSIBILITY of substituting silage for
hay and the results have been salts
factory. Silage not only is an excel.
lent substitute for hay, but it is more
economical to feed it, and there is an
increase in the production. 1t is not
possible to tell exactly the amount
saved by feeding silage, but it is
around % per cent on the feed bill.
Silage also could be substituted for
pasture, and it is profitable to feed
1t in summer. Where land is high
priced, farmers are feeding silage in
stead Of keeping the cows ON pasture.

Better Fertilizers
Cut Expense Bills
Easy to Cut in Half Quanti-
ty of Material Handled.

The trend among farmers toward
the use of higher-grade fertilizers is
bound to result in an appreciable re-
duction in the cost of growing crops.
"For," says A. w. Blair, soil chemist
at the New Jersey State College Of
Agriculture, Rutgers university, it is
easily possible to cut almost in half
the quantity of material to be handled,
carted and shipped. This means big
saving in freight bills alone"
Even a moderate increase in the
percentage of plant food in ferti-
lizer makes an important reduction in
the amount of inert materials to be
hauled. A ton of 4-S-5 contains so
pounds of ammonia, 160 pounds of
phosphoric acid and 100 pounds of
potash, making in all $40 pounds of
plant food. The other 1850 pounds
are combining and conditioning mate
rails. On the other hand, 1000 pounds
Of 5-10-6 fertilizer will give 1876
pounds of plant food.
A common fertilizer for corn has
been one containing food elements in
the ratio of 4-S-4 and used at the rate
of 500 pounds to the acre. In 500
pound application there are 20 pounds
of ammonia, 40 of phosphoric acid and
20 of potash. Yet the same amount of
plant food would be obtained from 400
pounds of a 5-10-5. Thus in fertiliz-
ing ten acres the farmer saves the
handling of and freight charges on
1000 pounds of material.

In Different Instances
Fall Flowing Benefits

Fall blowing in no way causes a
loss of fertility unless we have an
open winter and heavy rains, so that
the soil will wash readily. No fer
tility is ever lost by evaporation.
Nothing but moisture goes; the solids
are all left behind. In many in
stances, fall blowing is benefit to
the soil. Especially is this true in
heavy clay or muck soil. The expos
ure to the elements in the winter, the
action of the frost, pulverizes the clay
and puts it in very much better me-
chanical condition. There is some
danger in losing a portion of the soil
by washing when it Is fall plowed.
If the land is left in sod, heavy rains
do not wash away the soil, but when
plowed, erosion may occur.

Cholera Prevention Is
as Essential as Ever

The chances are that we are not
going to have cheap corn this fall.
The chances are also that hogs will
not bring as much money as they did
last fall, at the same time we already
have a lot of feed in the spring crop
of pigs and cholera prevention is just
as essential this year as if corn were
cheap and hogs brought a higher
price. Arrange to have your pigs
vaccinated and regard the expense
as insurance. Few farmers can afford
to carry their own insurance risk.
Better be safe now than so:.y later
on.

Cutting Millet Hay for
General Use. of Stock

If the millet hay is for general live
stock feeding the crop should be cut
just after blooming and before any
hard seeds have formed. Millet hay
containing seeds has long been held
to have an injurious effect on horses.
Too much millet hay, cut at any stage,
affects horses more than cattle or
sheep. The early cut hay, however,
is to be preferred for both cattle and
sheep.
Millet is cut for hay with mower
the same as any prairie or tame grass
hay. The crop usually stands erect
and is easy to cut with mower.

LOSS OF TRADE
Hurts and yellow Dog
Squeals

Boston.-The Gamewell Company
of Newton Upper Falls, near here,
manufacturers of signal apparatus u.s.
ed in police and fire apparatus, is ex-
planning why it established the 'yel-
low dog" contract last year and why
it broke off relations with organized
machinists.
There were no explanations then.
The plant was shut down and when it
reopened a week later the yellow
dog" was in full operation. After fu-
tile attempts to induce the company
to change its unfair policy, the In
ternational Association OF Machinists
requested city central bodies to use
their influence with local authorities
to award signal apparatus contracts
to concerns that recognize the legal
and moral rights of workers.
The response to the machinists' plea
has been so general that the Game
well Company is now telling how it
all happened and how grievously they
have been wronged.
But the "yellow dog" continues and
machinists must surrender their right
to join the union of their craft as the
price for employment.

WORKERS
Are Opposed to Private In.
jury Pay

Boston, Organized labor would
substitute an exclusive State fund for
the present system of workmen's pri-
vate compensation in Massachusetts.
The new proposal will be voted on
at the next general election. 1t will
be patterned after the Ohio law and
will provide that all employers with
three or more workers, excepting those
who might obtain authority to pay
compensation direct to their employees,
shall be required to pay premiums to
a State fund, which will be admins
tered by State Industrial Commits
sion of seven members. The Commits
sion will be appointed by the governor
and will fix rates.
Organized workers have long at
tempted to secure the establishment of
a State-controlled compensation. They
are opposed by the. insurance lobby
with an unlimited slush fund. The
workers have made steady gains, and
now many employers accept their view
that private compensation is wasteful
and unsatisfactory.

BY International Labor News Service.
Chicago Victor A. Olander, secre-
tary-treasurer of the Illinois State
Federation of Labor, believes that the
decision Of Federal Judge J. w. Wood
rough of Omaha, Neb., in deciding
Section % of the prohibition act un-
constitutional has direct bearing on
contempt of court cases resulting
from the issuance Of writs of injunc-
tion in labor disputes.
The section of the national prohibi-
tion law which allows the court to
issue a personal injunction and to con-
fine man in jail without jury trial
if that injunction is violated was de-
clared unconstitutional in a ruling
handed down by Judge Woodrough
September 26
Judge Brands Procedure Illegal
The ruling was made on the case of
Fred Cunningham, who lives near
SCOTS Bluff, Neb. The United States
attorney had asked the court to re-
strain Cunningham by injunction from
bootlegging In refusing to do this,
the Judge declared that Section % of
the prohibition law is unconstitutional
In his opinion, Judge Woodrough
said IF, as charged in this bill, the
defendant has bad reputation as a
bootlegger, let the matter be inquired
into, charge formulated, and a jury
of his peers called together.
But the bill in equity, though it is
based on section of an act of Con-
gress, calls upon the Judge to do that
thing which the Constitution of these
United States forbids that any judge
shall ever do--to try person for
crime and deprive him of his liberty
without jury"
Holds Decision Important to Labor
Secretary Olander agrees with
Judge Woodrough's decision, and in
an interview gave expression to his
views as to the application Of the de-
cision to sentences imposed without a
trial by jury resulting from the issu-
ance of injunctions in labor disputes.
He said;
"The decision of Judge Woodrough,
as reported in the public press, is de-
cidedly interesting from the labor
point Of view. Section % of the pro
hibition act, which he has declared
unconstitutional, provides that boot
leggers, who of course are criminals
under the law, may be restrained by
injunction, temporary and permanent,
from doing or continuing to do GER
tain acts which are forbidden by law.
Under that section, bootlegger
