Sanitary Measures Will
Clear Up Many Diseases

Simple sanitary measures around
chicken lots and houses would clear
up many mysterious diseases" Of
poultry which are reported. These
simple measures are more effective
than medicine administered In the
drinking water or bacterins given in a
syringe. Many flock owners have dis
counted the value of sanitation and
have resorted to medicinal measures
without obtaining relief.
1t is well-known fact that fresh
ground. free from filth. is desirable in
raising healthy chicks, but apparently
many people forget this point. In a
large number of cases reported. an
investigation will show that the same
ground has been used for chickens for
several years.
The ideal method to raise chicks is
to have several lots, and practice q
rotation system, the same as In grow
ing crops. Besides the sanitation
gained in such rotation, 1t will tend
to retard the spread of avian tuber-
cuIosis, which spreads to swine In 60
to 90 days through direct or indirect
association, while certain infections In
poultry are dangerous to calves. Try
10 shift your flock several times DUR
ing the year-it will pay you for the
trouble.

Small Stock Scales
Are Winning. Favor
Weighing Of Singles and
Thin Loads Speeded Up.

Prepared by the United States Department
OF Agriculture.)
Large scales were introduced orig
inally in stock yards for weighing live
stock because In the early days car
load drafts were representative of the
business. Since that time great
changes have occurred. Nowadays the
average draft of cattle at some stock
yards is less than four head and the
thousands Of single animals are
weighed; nevertheless in many cases
large scales are used. In the admins
stration of the Packers and Stock
Yards act by the United States De-.
partment of Agriculture constant en-
deavor has been made to bring about
the weighing of small drafts of live
stock on small scales.
A S0,0O0-poundor 40, 000-pound capac-
ity scale should not be used for weigh
ing single animals. says the, depart
ment, but small scale with capac-
lily of from 1000 to COCO pounds
should be provided for weighing single
animals and shall drafts up to the
capacity of the scale. Small scales.
have been introduced for weighing
small drafts in some stock yards.
This has involved departure from
long-established practice. AS conse-,,
quence criticisms are sometimes voiced,
by persons accustomed to the large
scales. However, experience with,
small scales usually results In al
change in viewpoint and they become
recognized as a valuable Improvement.
This is illustrated by recent report
from large stock yard In the Middle;
West which reads:
''rhe two small scales used fer,
weighing calves seem to give salts,
faction and there is no question but
that the weighing Of singles and small
loads has been speeded up materially
and is MUCH more satisfactory and
accurate than the weighing of such
drafts over large scales. =

Machinery Deteriorates
if Not Rightly Covered

Farm machinery will deteriorate If
1t is left in the great out-of-doors."
If it is properly housed. however, its
life will be practically doubled.
An implement shed either 16 or 20
feet wide will give proper protection
to the farm machinery. The narrower
width will accommodate one row of
machines; the wider one will provide
space for two rows.
If pitched roof Is placed over the
shed, space directly under it can be
utilized for storing light instruments,
IL a board floor is first laid over the
cross beams.
BY placing a six-inch concrete floor
under the shed. the farmer can elimi-
nate much Of the difficulty of moving
heavy machinery. such as tractors, hay
leaders. or binders.
The shed can be made practically
fireproof by the use Of concrete ma
sonry walls. and cement-asbestos for
roofing.

Clean, pump, brigf' seed is the SAT-

Spotted grain often means dead

Failure to succeed with alfalfa and
