YANKEES AIM NEW RULE
 TO STOP CHEAP HOMERS

NEW YORK, Maq 13.-Babe Ruth has been afforded a measure of protection from the boys beating him at home run slugging in his own Yankee Stadium.
 A ground rule, accepted by Err nest s. Bernard, American league president, now limits drives hopping into the left field bleachers of the Stadium from the turf to two bases.
 The rule doubtless will handicap shorter hitters, but will have slight effect on Ruth. His drives usually take the first bounce high up in the stands or in the adjoining streets.

Bulletin on Docking
and Castrating Lambs

prepared by the United states Department
of Agrlculture.)
Farmers who raise sheep for the
sale of lambs will be interested in
Farmers Bulletin 1134-F, "Castrating
and Docking Lambs" which may be
obtained free from United States De
partment of Agriculture, Washington,
D. c.
This bulletin emphasizes the value
of docking all lambs and castrating
the ram lambs which are to be mar
keted, in order to get maximum gains
and good prices when finished. I'm
locked ram lambs are often discrimi-
mated against, the bulletin shows, to
an extent ranging from 50 to 50 per
100 pounds, in comparison with cas-
trated and locked lambs of the same
age. This is due largely to the great
er uniformity and more attractive ap-
pearance which castrated and locked
lambs present when marketed.
Owners of range flocks have ling
appreciated the value of castraf ing
and docking, but these practices are
not so general in the case of farm
tlocks The bulletin describes and il
Illustrates the operations of castrating
and docking to aid farmers in per
forming the work safely and effec-
lively.

FARM Ia

MORE LIVE STOCK
NEEDED ON FARMS
Growing Demand for More
Milk, Beef and Poultry.

A growing demand for more milk,
butter beef and poultry makes it alb
solutely necessary that farmers in
crease their live stock production if
they continue to Tive at home"
1.-The rapidly increasing urban pop.
ulation has brought TO the farm door
the opportunity of buying those things
that at one time were of necessity pro
duced on the farm" says A. C. Kim.
rey, dairy extension specialist at the
North Carolina state college, "but it is
also increasing the demand for all
kinds of live stock products. In neg
lecting to increase his dairy herd and
poultry floeks. the farmer is neglecting
a wonderful opportunity to not only
produce good living but also make
good income from the farm"
In the early days of our history,
states Mr.. Kinney, when the markets
were few and far apart, it was not
only good business but necessity to
produce everything needed on the
farm. This naturally led to the pro-
duetion of crops that were adapted to
slow marketing such as cotton, tobac-
co and grain. But now, he states, II
is not only necessary to produce the
things needed on the farm but also
to produce those things most in de
mand at the nearest market which, in
most cases, is at the front door. The
constant demand today is for food
products from live stock.
According to Mr.. Kinney, live stock,
pasture and feed crops in reasonable
proportion will enable every farmer in
North Carolina to utilize a maximum
per cent of his acreage and will at the
same time, produce a decent living
and a marketable surplus of live stock
products.
This is the only permanent solu
ton, and as long as the farmers of
North Carolina refuse to follow this
system, just so long will they have
a small and insufficient farm income
and a standard of living not in keep
ing with other live stock producing
sections says Mr.. Kinney.

Live Stock Hints

ss.+s.sss....s.ssss s*sss.s....s..*tst.
Comfort is essential for maximum
profits from any kind of live stock.
Cookie burrs are poisonous to lambs
and small pigs if eaten in large guam
titles.
Only good quality hay, or that which
is of bright green color and leafy in
character, should be fed to hogs.
Pigs which make good gains during
the sucking period have decided ad.
vantage over pigs raised by sows which
are poor mixers.
Early pigs require more attention
at narrowing time and for few days
after they are narrowed to avoid losses
due to cold weather.
little extra protein feed should be
supplied during the last four to siA
row. 1t may be furnished by feeding
pound of tankage per day for every
four sows, or about two gallons OF
skim milk per day to the same mum
Der of sows.
Leguminous hay supplies desirable
proteins, minerals and vitamines in
the ration. Aside from the nutrients
furnished, however, another benefit de.
rived from feeding the whole hay is
hat of compelling the sows to ex.
arcise.
After pigs are weaned brood sows
running on good pasture need only q
limited amount of grain to carry them
through the summer in shape to far
row again the fall. The young grow
ing SOW needs more grain than ma
ture sows
