Plan for Keeping Crows
From Ravaging Crops

Following is the best method of
keeping crows from ravaging crops:
Make paste of one ounce of pow
dered strychnine, two tablespoonfuls
of starch and one AND one-half pints
of water, putting the starch and
strychnine into the water, which is
heated to boiling, and stirring well
when the starch begins to thicken.
This amount of paste is poured onto
twenty quarts of corn and stirred into
it until the poison is thoroughly mixed
with the corn.
little of this poisoned corn scat
tered over the field will kill a few
crows and the rest will take warning
and leave Using whole corn for bait
lessons the danger of poisoning
smaller seed-eating birds. Care should
be taken not to scatter the poisoned
corn near buildings where domestic
fowls or animals will pick it up.
1t is always advisable before using
this method to look up laws and local
regulations regarding the distribution
of poison. Local conditions may mod
ify practices great deal, especially
in thickly populated districts.

Extra Fine Alfalfa May
Contain Much Protein

Extra fine quality alfalfa hay may
contain one-third more protein than
wheat bran, while poor quality alfalfa
hay may contain one-third less than
wheat bran. The first cutting of al
falfa has, as rule, a smaller proper
ton of leaves than the later cuttings,
and the last cutting usually has the
highest proportion of leaves. The
leaves contain from 20 to 25 per cent
of protein, while the stems contain
from 6 TO 10 per cent.
Exposure of hay to rain during cur
ing may result in the loss of one-third
Of the protein of alfalfa hay. This
greatly reduces the quality of the hay,
and then, too, one of the least valu-
able nutrients, the crude fiber, is little
affected by rain and thus forms q
larger proportion of the hay.

Interest Taken
In Poultry T. B.
Many States Plan for Con,
troll and Eradication of
Dread Disease.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
tuberculosis in poultry is receiving
considerable attention by livestock
interests in many states because of
the danger of transmitting the dis
ease from flock to flock and from
poultry to swine. Many states have
adopted working plan for the con-
troll and eradication Of the disease
from poultry and much is being done
to combat it.
Considerable tuberculin testing of
flocks has been done, chiefly with the
view of determining the possibilities
of the test and its value in the clean
up campaign.
Limited Survey Made.
Incident to the studies inaugurated
elsewhere, the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture, through its tu-
berculosis eradication division, made
limited survey to determine the ex-
tent of avian tuberculosis. The pur-
pose of the survey was, principally,
to obtain information relative to the
prevalence of the disease in the states
believed to be comparatively free.
Nine states known to have high per
cent of infected poultry were not in
Guided. OF the remaining 80 states
q were found to have some infected
poultry; approximately % per cent of
the 1874 flocks tested were found to
have some infection. More than $1,000
birds were tested, resulting in more
than $500 reactors being obtained.
Examination of Flocks.
The usual physical examination of
farm fiocks incident to the tuberculin
testing of the cattle was continued by
the field men. During the fiscal year
1927 inspections We're made of more
than 11,600 fiocks, containing over
16,500,0OO birds. This gross inspection
indicated nearly per cent of flock
infection in the states covered
1t is believed says Doctor Wight,
acting chief of the tuberculosis eradi-
cation division, that under the plans
now in effect, and with the work being
conducted simultaneously with the
testing of cattle, marked progress
will be reported in the near future.

Agricultural Hints
..******.*.*.s*.** *s

***s**.*****..*...**.s.***
Guard against dogs and predatory
animals.
Alfalfa or clover hay should be sup
piled to pigs being fattened in the.
dry lot.
Keep the sheep off low, wet land.
Provide shelter in winter and shade
in summer.
Sweet clover is a special purpose
legume, especially adapted to soil inn
provement and rotation pastures.
The silo is a real enemy of the corn
borer. When corn is put in the silO,
any borers it contains never come out
alive.
While feeding and housing are very
important factors in securing better
egg production. il is fundamentally q
matter of breeding.
Burning over pastures and meadows
to get rid of weeds and old trash does
not pay, it Injuries the grass roots and
removes desirable humus.

Tor a summer meal which one does

recipe is from the bureau of home

cups faxed cooked 1 tbs. lemon Juice
or canned fish eggs
cup milk u tsp. salt
2 tbs. butter tsp. finely
tbs. flour chopped parsley
Onion juice
Prepare a sauce of the butter, flour,
and milk. Add to this the beaten eggs,
the seasoning, and the fish. Mix well.
Add more salt if needed. Pour the mix

Sauory Cooked Lettuce
Valuable for Vitan1ines

Many people never think of lettuce
as vegetable that may be cooked. 1t
is, in fact, one of the valuable green
leaf vegetables depended on for vita
mines and minerals, and may be eaten
hot as well as raw. Green lettuce that
may be rather tough for salad is good
cooked according to these directions
given by the bureau Of home eco

I cup diced salt 2 tbs. vinegar
pork Salt
quarts cut lettuce Onion Juice, IL

Wash the lettuce thoroughly and
cut it in pieces about inches long.
Cook the salt pork in heavy skillet
until brown and very crisp, and re-
move it from the fat. Add the lettuce
to the hot fat and stir until it willis.
Add the vinegar and cooked salt pork,
and more salt if needed.
The time of cooking will vary with
the lettuce, but do not cook any longer
than necessary to wilt the lettuce.
A small quantity of onion juice can be
added with the vinegar if desired.

Profit From, Poultry

Profit from the poultry yard, in the
case of a farm woman living in Ma
dera county, California, includes the
results of selling angel food, sunshine
and sponge cakes during the season
when eggs are plentiful. The county
home-demonstration agent held a
meeting last year and showed the
members of this woman's group how
to make these cakes, in each of which
from 6 to 10 eggs are required for
leavening. She made 116 cakes for
sale during the season, in addition to
those consumed at home. They found
a ready market at dollar apiece.
This meant a profitable disposal of
about 1000 surplus eggs.
