REPORT RISING
MPLOYMENT
IN 80 DAYS

The country will be on normal
employment basis within the next
so to 90 days. the U. s. Employ.
ment Service, Department OF
Labor, predicted in its January
review, made public yesterday.
All reports indicate that an up
ward swing in employment is in
motion, said the report, adding:
"A great volume Of unemplOy.
ment was apparent during the
first half Of January, and while
there Is still considerable un-
employment, the latter part Of
the month showed a vast i'm
prOvement, which will continue
with greater momentum until
It is believed that within the

ment basis"
The outlook for iron and steel
Is unusually encouraging, large
orders having been placed for all
classes Of such products, it was
stated. Many workers who were
released in this industry at the
close of last year have been re-
called to work.
Many workers have been re-
called to the automobile factories
AMI the plants manufacturing
accessories. The prospects are
bright for greatly increased en-
ployment in this industry, &C.
cording to the survey.
While the coal industry is still
suffering from considerable un-
employment, a noticeable i'm
provement was recorded during
the latter part of January.
Much unemployment has been
caused by severe weather condi-
lions, which curtailed building
operations and municipal i'm
provements, it was pointed out.
Road construction on a scale
larger than in any recent years
will absorb much Of the unen.
ployment slack, the survey stated.

Fertilizer Types /
and Distributors
Little Known of Merits of
American Machine and
Drilling Quality.

prepared by the United States Department
of .Agriculture)
Up to the present no accurate in
formation has been available as to the
relative merits of the American types
of fertilizer distributing machines.
Also, little has been known regarding
the factors which affect the drilling
qualities of fertilizers. To obtain re-
liable data the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture undertook an ex-
perimental study of fertilizers and dis
tributors the results of which have
just been published in Technical Bull
letin 1927, entitled, Factors Affect
ing the Mechanical Application of Fer
tilizers to the Soil"
Test Atmospheric Conditions.
Atmospheric conditions, especially
relative humidity, were known to have
a marked effect on the drillability of
fertilizers, so it was necessary, for the
purposes of these experiments, to con-
struct a room in which the tempera-
ture and humidity were fully under
the control Of the experimenter. This
room was lined with insulating board
and the space between this lining and
the outside walls was filled with saw
dust. The only entrance to the room
was through vestibule equipped with
three tight fitting doors. BY means Of
thermostats it was possible to keep
the air in the room at any desired
temperature and humidity. The fer
tiliZers used in the experiments were
stored in trays in this room. Ferti-
liZer distributors of various makes
were installed successfully in the room
and the fertilizers were run through
the machines with the air at various
humidities to determine the effect of
humidity on the rate of delivery.
Distributors representative of vari-
GUS types were also operated and
tested to show the relationship of con-
struction and principle of operation to
evenness of distribution and control
Of delivery rate. . :.
Effect of Weather.
The sexperimenters noted the effect
Of weather conditions on fertilizers
and also the effects of other factors,
such as hygroscopicity, size and shape
Of particles, specific gravity of the
fertilizers, and friction between parti-
cles. In the study of distribution they
also observed the effects of the depth
Of fertilizer in the hopper, the inclina-
ton of the distributor, the use of agi-
tatOrS and other factors,

Cod Liver Oil Gives
Poultry Fishv Taste

Although cod liver oil is highly rec
commended for feeding poultry under
certain conditions, it has q tendency
to cause the flesh to have fishy taste
and therefore should be omitted from
the ration fed broilers for at least
two weeks prior to marketing. says
DR.. f. E. HUT, poultry specialist, Uni
versity Farm, st. Paul, MINI.
Doctor HUT cites some experiments
conducted at Purdue university which
indicate that cod liver oil should be
left out of the ration for about 16 to
1S days before marketing. The amount
of cod liver oil and the length of time
used, the method of cooking and the
temperature of the meat when served,
affected the intensity of the fishy fla
vor. One lot was fed two per cent cod
liver oil in the ration, and after the
oil had been discontinued two weeks,
no bad taste was apparent while warm
but trace was detected when allowed
to become cold. Another lot received
four per cent cod liver oil in the ra-
ton. One bite of one of these birds
was enough, for fishy taste was so
evident. However, after the oil had
been removed from the lot for two
weeks, only slight trace of fishy fla
vor could be detected.
The experiments show no evidence
that the omission of cod liver Oil for a
short period will cause any bad effects
upon chickens of marketable size.

Effective Control of
Cucumber Beetle Pest

One part of arsenate of calcium and
twenty parts of land plaster, mixed
thoroughly together and applied in
dust form at the rate of thirty to sixty
pounds per acre, has been found by the
Ohio experiment station to be an eff
fective measure of control for the
cucumber beetle. The station made
buster by using half gallon tin can
and mailing a three-foot strip on each
side and joining the two strips to-
gether at the top with another piece
rounded off for convenience and COM
fort in handling. Then twenty holes
with an eight-penny nail, punching
from the inside out.

AK Is Best Treatment
to Give Sick TURKEYS

Here's bad news for ailing turkeys.
1t sounds very much like the usual
Thanksgiving prescription, but the d.
rectiOns in this case are not to wait
for November to give it. DR.. w. A.
Billings, extension veterinary special
ist at University farm, st. Paul, Mimi,
nationally known turkey talker," says
the best treatment for a sick turkey
is the ak. Lets have as few sick
ones as possible" he writes in his
turkey news letter mailed to turkey
raisers all over the United States.
AS another timely hint, Doctor Bill
lings suggests: when your poults
get out on green's for the first time,
take care they do not gorge them
selves. Break the good news to them
gently. Their eyes are bigger than
their tummies and some may load up
and die because they are gluttons. If
the little fellows are starved for
green's they should be handled care
fully to prevent such trouble. This
applies to alfalfa, rape or any other
green, leafy plant"
Predictions that this is to be "good
grasshopper year" hold little promise
for modern turkey growers, Doctor
Billings opines, because if the birds
are allowed to roam to eat the hop
pers they will likely die off from 9th
er causes. He urges keeping the poults
confined in pens on clean ground, en-
tirely away from chickens and at a
safe distance from farm buildings.

Perpetuate Forests
by Careful Logging
Trees Less Than Twelve
Inches Are Improbable.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture)
Forests that last indefinitely and
sawmills saving up these forests with
out ever running out of logs are pic
tured by the forest service, United
State Department of Agriculture, in re-
porting the results of a study of selec-
tive logging in the northern hardwoods
of the Lake states.
The key to perpetual timber produc-
ton is selective logging, the forest
service states, which means a partial
cutting of the forest involving judi
cious selection of trees to be felled, 50
as to perpetuate and improve the for
est and at the same time maintain or
increase the profit. Lumbermen in
the Lake states with no virgin timber
in prospect for cutting after present
holdings are exhausted, must choose
between going out of business in a
comparatively short time or taking
steps to put their remaining stands on
a self-perpetuating basis.
Costs of logging and milling as de-
termined by the study indicate that in
typical Lake state forests trees less
than IL inches in diameter are I'M
profitable to convert into lumber. By
taking only the trees larger than that
size the lumberman obtains better
profit and at the same time leaves
many thrifty trees to grow for the
next cutting and reseed the bare
places. In the region investigated,
successive "crops' of lumber can prob
ably be harvested on this basis every
25'to 80 years.

Logging in the Northern Hardwoods

suits of the study, may be procured

ture, Washington, D. c.

Feeding Orphan Lambs
Quite Important Task

In the feeding of orphan lambs, the
following points must be kept in mind.
l. The milk should be taken from
COW whose milk tests high in fat.
9. For the first three or four weeks
the milk from this one selected cow
only should be fed to the lamb.
3. For the first few days and nights
the lamb should be fed every two or
three hours, and a small amount (say
two or three tablespoonfuls, with a
gradual increase) given it each time,
so as not to overload its stomach.
4. The milk should be warmed up
to 90 degrees, which is about the
warmth of Sleeps milk. Care must
be taken not to let the milk boil.
5. The bottle and nipple should be
thoroughly washed each time after use
to keep bottles sweet.

assessor and collector said Thurs
day.
More than nalf the property
owners on the rolls have already
made either half or full payments,
and $1,000 has been taken In:
about half Of these are one-half
payments, the remainder to be paid
In July. Taxes for the year should
come 10 sass, 900.
More and more citizens each year
are taking advantage Of the in
stallment plan OF tax payment,
Sterling says. The first year only
about one-third paid IN this way.
last year there was slightly over
half, and indications are that the
figures this year viii be slightly
higher.
The installment plan OF payment
has been arousing interest In 9TH
er sections Of the state. IL is In
dicated by a letter just received by
Sterling from Wichita Falls. ask
ing as to laws on the subject.
The plan gives citizens the pri-
yilege OF paying half their city
taxes in January, the other half
In July. Where no part OF the tax
Is paid in January, penalties are
laid on the whole amount.
