Bright Shiny Yellow
Corn Best for Fowls

Watch the corn supply that you are
buying from the elevator and try and
obtain bright shiny yellow corn. Some
times an order of corn may contain
lot of black or brown kernels or grain
that smells musty or shows signs Of
mold. Such corn is not good for
chicken feed. 1t seems that dog can
eat spoiled product and disgorge 1t
and Immediately reduce the unfavor-
able effects. The unfortunate chicken
that eats spoiled corn. tainted canned
goods or moldy or decayed feed, must
allow the material to pass through the
entire digestive system. That Is why
hens must have clean feed in order to
thrive and lay. The old idea that any
thing was good enough for scavenger
hens has probably killed lot Of good
hens.

Control NOxiOus
Perennial Weeds
CELEBRATES of Calcium, Sodi-
UNI or Magnesium Are
Effective.

Noxious perennial weeds which
cause heavy losses on many farms
can be controlled under certain con-
ditions by spraying with CELEBRATES Of
calcium, sodium or magnesium, 1t Is
Indicated by tests conducted by the
Colorado Agricultural college.
Although more definite information
is needed before final recommended
lions can be announced, a recent sur
vey of plots Of weeds throughout the
state where killing tests were made
gives some light on the problem. &C.
cording to Bruce J. Thornton, assist
ant botanist for the Colorado expert.
ment station, and T. g. Stewart, ex-
tension agronomist at the college.
Obtain Best Results.
Observations made during this sur
vey indicate that the best results from
these chemical sprays may be obtained
as follows:
1. Allow the perennial weed pest to
reach full maturity, and perhaps make
a few seed.
2. Use two pounds or more Of chlor.
ate salt per square rod in a fine
spray evenly distributed over the
foliage.
8. Spraying the weed during the
late afternoon or evening seems to
give the best results.
4. Follow-up treatments are neces-
sary, using the same strength Of So
luton, late this summer or next year.
The amount of material required will
be determined by the number of plants
re-appearing in the area sprayed.
These are only tentative recommen-
dations, it is emphasized. Additional
experimental and Unconstitutional work
Is now under way in many sections of
the state, and more complete results
will be announced as soon as they are
available.
Danger Of Fire.
Farmers are warned that there Is
serious danger of fire in using sodium
chlorate. Calcium chlorate gives ap-
proximately equal results, as far as
present tests indicate, and has no fire
hazard.
1t is suggested that those who have
serious perennial weed problems get
in touch with their county extension
agent or with Mr.. Thornton of the
botany department at the college. II
one is in doubt as to the Identification
of any weed he should dig up a COM
plete plant including roots and flow
er parts and send 1t to the botany de-
partment for Identification and advice
as to the most likely method Of con-
troll.

Clipping Queens Wings
to Control Swarminy

Some beekeepers make practice Of
clipping the wing of each queen, not
only to control swarming, but to keep
a check on the age Of the queen. There
are arguments for and against this
practice and its value is occasionally
a subject of controversy among bee
keepers.
Instead of trying to control swarm
ing by clipping the queens wing, it
would be much better to manage bees
so that swarming is prevented.
Swarming is usually brought about by
overcrowding and congestion of bees
in the brood part Of the hive. REM
edying this cause will reduce swarm
ing to the minimum.

Seek Larger Supply
Of New Insecticide
Malay States Urged to Grow
acknowledging Plants.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.l
Finding rOtenone, new insecticide,
superior to materials now generally
used for insect control, the United
States Department Of Agriculture is
urging the Malay states to grow ro-
tenone-bearing plants on a CONNER:
cial scale for the American trade.
This new insecticide is found in
quantities up to Z per cent In the
roots Of the South American "cube"
plant pronounced coobay), up to ga
per cent in Derris roots, and to a
lesser extent in three other plants.
The cube now grows in part OF
South America where the climate Is
similar to that Of the Malay states
and surrounding countries.
r. @. Roark, insecticide specialist
of the Department of Agriculture. ad-
vances the theory that Derris plants
containing greater quantities of ro-
tenone might be derived by careful Sc
lection and breeding. He points out
that cube roots are not yet available
commercially.
Tests by the Department Of Agri-
culture indicate that rotenone is high
ly poisonous to both sucking and
chewing insects. In tests conducted
privately, rotenone was fed to dogs,
cats, sheep and chickens In quanti-
ties up to grain per pound of body
weight and no injury was noticeable.

Sodium Chlorate Must
Be Handled Carefully

One of the most important precau-
lions in the use Of sodium chlorate as
a weed spray is its intlammability.
Large quantities of sodium chlorate
were used throughout the United
States in the last two years and sew
eral workers were severely burned.
Sodium chlorate does not catch fire
quickly but burns rapidly after once
started. Fire must be kept away from
all articles such rs clothing. rubbish,
refuse, and any other infiammable ma
terial which has been sprayed with
sodium chlorate.

Remove All Old Canes
From the Berry Patches

Immediately following the harvest
of both blackberries and raspberries
the old fruiting canes should be re-
moved. The removal will destroy
many diseases and insects harmful to
the berry patch and additional nour-
ishment will be given to the new
canes which are left. At this time the
new shoots of raspberries should be
thinned so there will be four or five
strong vigorous canes to each plant.
On account of the tendency Of the
blackberries to produce new and rath-
er weak shoots. they should not be
thinned until spring. This may be
done at the time the laterals are
shortened. Blackberries are thinned
to leave strong vigorous canes about
$40 inches apart.

NOTES NOTES

Producing sweet cream requires
practically no more work or expense
than sour cream. except for cooling
and more frequent delivery.
Protein is the high cost element In
feeds and it's use should be governed
not only from a physical standpoint
but from an economical basis as
well.
At least one month before calving,
the heifers should be put in the milk
ing barn so that they can become ac-
customed to the barn and to the other
cows before calving.
Without additional feed cows must
call upon their body reserve to make
up the deficiency. This means loss
of flesh and lowered milk production,
often very quickly in the case of the
very heavy producers.

Utensils for Picking

Apples for fancy market should
be picked in suitable containers. care
being taken at all times not to bruise
the fruit or puncture the skin. The
commercial apple crop is usually
picked in picking bags or aprons. The
apples should not be allowed to fall
a long distance into the container, and
the picker shoulG not let his picking
bag or apron bounce from round to
round of the ladder when descending.
Reasonable care should be exercised
In dumping the fruit into the barrels,
boxes, or on the packing table.

Fruit-Tree Leaf-Roller
Major Pest in Orchards

The fruit-tree leaf-roller was first
noticed as a serious pest in New York
state in 1911. Since that time 1t has
Increased in numbers and destructive
ness, until it has become major pest
in many orchards. 1t is notable for
its habit of becoming suddenly very
abundant and injurious in a limited
area while orchards little distance
away may remain untouched by 1t.
During the next year or two 1t may
suddenly appear in some other local
ity. Once established In an orchard
it is likely to remain stubborn pest
until reduced by thorough control
measures.

All Creosoted Timbers
Are Immune to Decay

Decay Of joints and stills. the worst
foe of durability in farm buildings,
will be conquered by the use of Greco
soted timbers. This has been proved
in a great deal of practical experience
as well as in experimental trials. One
large lumber manufacturer plans In
the near future to stock local dealers
with a full line of such timbers. creo-
soted by the pressure method, which
saturates the fiber through and
through with the preventative. Tim
bers treated in this way are prac-
tically immune to decay, and especial
ly around the base of the building
will last many years longer than ordi-
nary lumber.

Two Men to Fill Silo
Using Wisconsin Plan

With Wisconsin's 'small crew" plan
of silo filling only two men are need
ed. If the binder is equipped with
bundle elevator two loads may be cut
and put on the racks without the hard
labor Of pitching the bundles by hand.
The loads are then drawn to the silo
and run through the cutter. A tractor
or electric motor furnishes the belt
power. Tramping is not necessary
for keeping silage, recent experiments
show, and in many cases this job has
been eliminated. Neither is 1t neces-
sary to have a man at the feed table
of the modern ensilage cutter.

ernor- general of the Philippines, tenn
porary justice of Cuba and secretary
of war. He has earned a rest but ut
his advanced age of % it seems that
he has used up his strength too
thoroughly to enjoy it as he should.
He has enjoyed the distinction of be-
ing the only man to have held the two
highest offices in the land, that of
president and chief justice of the SUI
preme court.
Mr.. Taft has attained a height in
worldly achievement that is seldom
reached by any man. He has indeed
been honored.
His successor. to the bench, Charles
Evans Hughes, is almost as well known
in the public life of the country as is
Mr.. Taft, having served in various
capacities including the office of sec
rotary of state. Both men belong to
the Republican party.

SANDSTONE MAN
is LAID TO REST
Was Brother Of MarkyiIle Man.-Had
Lived at Sandstone During
Past Eleven Years.

Funeral services were held in the
Swedish Mission church at Sandstone
Tuesday, Jan. % for C. H. Carlson
who passed away at his farm home
one mile northeast of that village the
Sunday before. The Rev. John Cert
son officiated and burial was made
besi.e the grave of his wife in the
Sandstone cemetery.
Mr.. Carlson had suffered a para
lytic stroke about a year ago, from
which he never fully recovered and
was stricken again the day before
his death.
Carl H. Carlson was born in Oster-
Jotland, Sweden, May 1, 1873, and at
the age of nineteen came to this coun-
try where he settled in Canton, S. d.
He was united in marriage to Hannah
SJogren of that place in 1902. To this
union five children were born, two
boys who died in infancy, and three
girls, Mrs. Harold Derby, Mrs. Rein
hold Alters, and Esther Carlson. Be-
sides the daughters, he is survived by
a brother, Otto Carlson, living west
of Markville and one brother and two
sisters in Sweden.
Mr.. Carlson was an Industrious and
upright citizen and was held in the
highest esteem by all who knew him.
His wife preceded him in death 10

A PUBLIC SERVICE

In this weeks issue of the Amer
lean is published the annual financial
statement of Pine county as prepared
by County Auditor Andrew p Edin.
In former years it used to take up
about five pages and was a long and
cumbersome affair to look through
and to study. AS will be noted it
has now been boiled down" to take
up a space of only two pages-less
revenue for the printers but much
better for the public and easier to
comprehend. To take each item of
receipts and expenditures from the
books of record and prepare the state
ment in that manner is much easier
than to group several items together
and make the statement more COM
pact. Mr.. Edin, the efficient auditor,
and who by the way was recently
elected president of the Minnesota
County Auditors association in recog-
milton of his ability, is to be COM
mended for his good work.

BE CAREFUL!

A Pine county farmer lost his life
last week due to carbon monoxide
poisoning. He started the engine Of
a truck and let it run for several
minutes while standing in a garage.
1t is indeed sad to see so many lives
snuffed out by this deadly method but
it seems that it still continues to take
its toll regardless of the warnings
that have been printed and voiced.
If you must run your motor, do it
where there is sufficient air circu-
lation to carry off the direct fumes
from the exhaust. Even though you
have the door of the garage open this
is not sufficient assurance that the
fumes will not reach you in great
enough quantity to be fatal
If everyone will practice the ut

who was destined by the dint of his
own super efforts to be the benefactor
OF vast numbers of poor unfortunates
of the human race. A man who was
to throw the light of honesty and up
rightneSs from coast to coast of this
nation and even throughout the world
A man who was doomed to be mar
tyr to the cause Of truth and right
eousness. Yes, Abraham Lincoln
would be 121 years of age next We'd
neSday if he could have lived that
long
He has gone but the sacredness of
his memory has fingered. 1t will
linger throughout the years to come,
casting its rays into the crevices of
human deceitfulness causing a GER
tain hallow to exist in it's stead.
The memory of his deeds has caused
cherished ambitions to swell i'm the
breasts of young Americans. IL has
made this better world in which to
live. His hardshipS were alleviated
in the later years of his life when he
saw the fruits of his efforts make
others happy. 1t was his reward and
all that he had asked
The world is in constant need of
