Lice and Mites
Hurt Egg Yield
These Two Poultry Parasites
Require Different Treat
ment to Kill.
prepared by the United States Department
OF Agriculture.)

prepared by the United States Department
OF Agricultural
Poultry parasites are of many kinds.
Sometimes they multiply until they
kill the fowls Oh which they prey.
But in the opinion of entomologists OF
the United States Department of Agri-
culture parasites do even greater In
jury to the industry by reducing the
vitality. stunting the growth, and
checking the egg yield Of fowls. Lice
and mites are the most frequent and
widespread groups of eternal para
sites, and these two require entirely
different methods Of treatment to rid
the fowls of their attacks, because the
two live under different conditions.
The lice exist on the fowls, and the
mites live in cracks and crevices In
nests and roosts.
Eradicatino Lice.
For Graduating lice the Depart
ment Of Agriculture recommends ap-
plication of sodium fluoride. 1t kills
all varieties of ~lice-body, head. and
feather. This chemical may be applied
by busting or by dipping. Either the
chemically pure" or the Commercial"
grades may be used. but the latter is
cheaper and more easily obtained.
Young chicks require very little. and
a pound Of powder costing about 80
cents should kill the lice on a flock Of
100 chickens. Dipping the fowls is
still easier and cheaper, but 1t is not
wise to dip fowls unless the weather
is warm. A single treatment of every
fowl, by either the busting or dipping
method, will completely eradicate all
lice from the premises.
Destroying Mites.
For mites the procedure is utterly
different. Mites do not live on the
fowls by day, but come out and suck
their fill of blood when the fowls are
roosting. First the poultry house must
be cleaned thoroughly. Trash, nest
ing material, etc. should be taken out
and burned. Then go over the whole
house thoroughly with crude petrole-
um or carbolineum, using either q
spray pump or brush to apply the ma
terial. Petroleum is cheaper but the
carbolineum gets into the cracks bet
ter and lasts longer. Paint the ro0sts
and let the petroleum or carbolineum
work into every crack. The mite
killer should dry before the chickens
60 to roost.
There are other fowl parasites, such
as the scaly leg mites, blue bugs, bed
bugs, feas, and chiggers, each of
which may cause much loss; these
pests, however, are not so generally
distributed as are the lice and mites.
This general distribution over the en-
tire United States and the pernicious
attacks of mites and lice make these
two groups of outstanding Importance

Wayside Markets Become
a National Institution

Millions Of motorists have been
reading signs like this: Beets, peas,
squash, apples and honey, fresh eggs,
IS cents, and seeing these signs have
bought. Small farmers everywhere
have put up these little roadside
markers where each year increasing
thousands have purchased fresh prod
uce. These wayside markets are be-
coming a national institution, bring
ing back the direct touch of farmer
and consumer, says the Illinois Farm
er. Probably some middlemen and
retail groceries are d~ispleased, but
the likes 1t. For nine
months In the year the consumer
must meet the demands of the mer-
chants in the large cities, and there
fore will have scant sympathy with
him in this problem. This is growing
into an immense business and the con-
sumer is rejoicing in bis ability to
get really fresh vegetables and eggs
without having to pay any number of
persons for carrying them from the
farm to his door.

R~oundwOrms Enemies of
Jersey Swine Growers

New Jersey pig growers are finding
that among their worst enemies are
roundworms, reports w. G. Shelley,
assistant animal husbandman at the
New Jersey agricultural experiment
station.
Once these worms establish them
selves in the intestines of q young pig,
growth of the animal Is greatly re-
tarded. If the animal Is not promptly
freed of the pests, 1t becomes stunted
and is not profitable to feed.
A treatment, however, has been de-
veloped that is proving very ~satisfac-
tory. This consists of giving each
infested pig a capsule made Of 2
grains OF %santonin, . grains of Gallo
mel, and 5 grains of bicarbonate of
soda. Before the capsule is admins
tered all feed is withheld for from II
to Is hours so as TO be sure that the
digestive tract of the animal Is empty.
About s to II hours after the an
imal has been given the capsule, it is
fed a light slop of middlings contain
ing ] tablespoonful of epson salts.
Wider use Of this treatment will, In
the opinion of Professor Shelley, bring
great savings to the pig industry.

Break Colt Gradually
Most Practical Plan

A good way to break colts, If you
have plenty of time, is to begin by put
ting the halter on the colt and then
turning ii loose. After 1t becomes ac-
customed to the halter, then put on
the bride and turn loose. The next
step Is to put on full harness and al
low the colt to walk around loose In
barnlot for a while. No halter lead
strap or hitch rein should be allowed
to bangle to the ground from halter
or bride while on the colts head.
The colt can soon be driven around
singly with two lines, and before long
1t can be hitched with another horse
a gentle one-and both be driven
around the lot. Soon the tive can be
hitched to a wagon and driven around
together. Before you know 1t, the
colt will be broken.

Roup Usually Starts as
a Cold During Winter

One OF the common troubles with
poultry in the fall and winter In a
disease known as roup. 1t usually
starts as a cold with a watery dis
charge from the eyes or nostrils. In
this form, it is commonly called a
cold. The trouble may be nothing
more than a cold, in which case 1t will
soon clear up and disappear.
If, however, roup is really present,
the eyes-one or both-will swell and
will be filled with a heavy mucus
which may even be so thick 1t is
cheesy. The bird will stand hunched
up and will have no desire to do any
thing. There will be a foul cdor from
the discharge. This is roup.
Keeping the birds warm Is one OF
the best treatments for this trouble.
Take all birds thus affected to a
warm building or room-if one is
available with a stove In 1t, so much
the better. Squeeze as much Of the
cheesy material from the eyes as pcs
sible and treat the eyes with a warm
5 per cent solution of boric acid or
with a 2 per cent solution Of some
good d~isinfectant. A 20 per cent
argyrol solution Is also good for this.
Remove any birds from the pen as
as any other cases are discoy-
cred.

Lime and Potash Are
Big Clover Essentials
Waste of Time to Plant Crop
in Poor Soil.

1t is n waste of time and seed to
plant clover in soil that needs lime
and potash. Such Is the conclusion
to be drawn from the results of tests
conducted at the New Jersey agri-
cultural experiment station during
the past year.
Glover failed to grow when planted
in trial plots where chemical tests
showed the need of lime. Timothy
and clover together yielded about
1,736 pounds TO the acre ON soil that
was lined but not fertilized with
potash. Addition of potash to other
lined plots brought a yield of 3,105
pounds of hay to the acre. In the
second cutting, on the lined plot
without potash. 800 pounds of hay to
the acre vas obtained and on the
lined and potash treated plot 1000
pounds.
The soil chemists at the expert
ment station explain that lime is
needed to counterfeit soil acids, as
clover can neither terminate well nor
grow In an acid soil. Glover absorbs
large quantities of potash and IL
large crops are removed the soil Is
soon exhausted of the available
potash. Experiments have shown
that % to 90 pounds of muriate of
potash to the acre usually meets the
requirements of clover. Sometimes
100 pounds may be needed.
Where the soil has been properly
inoculated with nit~rogen-fixing bac-
terra 1t is not necessary to use nitro
gen fertilizers on clover. The plant
has the ability to obtain its nitro
gen from the air through the aid of
these bacteria.

SUMMER RATION
BY OHIO

Hogs will live on pasture or on
grain alone In the summer, but they'll
live far better and produce more
economical pork If the pasture and
grain are combined.
"a saving of from 10 to % per cent
of the total amount of grain and sup
plements may be expected through
the use of forage as a supplement"
says ]. w. Wuichet, live stock extern
sion specialist at the Ohio State uni
versity.
While II Is possible to obtain gains
with hogs on good forage alone, the
best returns, according to Mr.. Wuichet,
follow addition of grain to the forage,
feeding two to four pounds of grain
a day for each 100 pounds Of live
weight. With less grain the time re-
CURED to obtain the gains is longer.
How much difference In time that
may be was demonstrated In q recent
experiment. 1t was found, Mr.. Wui-
chet reports, that spring pigs on pas
ture, fed limited grain, took AZ more
days to reach market weight than did
spring pigs on pasture and full grain
feed. AS a rule the hcg that gains
most rapidly is gaining most economi-
cally, regardless of the amount Of feed
necessary.
For hog pasture alfalfa leads the
list, followed closely by red and al
sike clover, rape, or rape and oats
mixtures. First-year sweet clover
also makes good pasture. Blue grass
Is the best permanent pasture for
most sections, but permanency is its
chief virtue. Especially during sum-
mer other forage crops are needed for
hogs. In late fall and early spring
rye makes good hog pasture.

Sharp Disk Harrow Will
Give Good Satisfaction

Don't start the spring work with
a dull disk harrow. 1t Is just as in
efficient as a dull razor, only you can't
feel it quite so keenly. If the disks
have hicks in the edges, or If one
side Is rusted from standing on the
ground, 1t will greatly lessen the
quality of its work.
If 1t has been kept In fairly good
condition, you can probably sharpen
the disk satisfactorily with q hand
grinding outfit, but If 1t is very dull
you had better take it to a shop with
a power grinder and have the Job
well done. Sharpness is particularly
important If you are to use the disk
over a stalk field so that 1t has to
cut through a large amount Of stalks
and trash.
Other things to examine are the
bearings. The chances are that the
old grease is hardened and dried, and
the only way you can get the bear
ings thoroughly fabricated is to take
the disks off and scrape out all the
old grease and dirt. 1t Is very de-
sirable TO equip such a machine as
the disk with grease cups which are
adapted to the use of a grease gum,
so that the lubricant may be forced
into every part of the bearings sew
eral times during the season. A small
amount of grease in the right place
saves an immense amount Of wasted
labor.
