Making Alfalfa Hay
Without Losing Food
Unless Farmer Saves Leaves
Cow Is Big Loser.

(Ry J. c. NTSBET, Extension Dairyman,
Kansas State Agricultural College.)
The ends sought in making alfalfa
hay are to secure bright green color,
good aroma, retention of the leaves,
and freedom from dust, dirt, and rain.
Forty-three per cent of the alfalfa
plant is contained in the leaves. Two
thirds Of the entire plant food content
Of the hay is contained in this 43 per
cent.
This fact Immediately puts the al
falfa grower face to face with the
proposition that unless he gets the
leaves to the COW, he is losing consid-
cradle food value.
Experiments have proven that when
alfalfa hay is exposed to rain it loses
GO per cent of the crude protein, Al
per cent of the nitrogen-free-extract,
and 33 per cent Of the fat. The total
loss amounts to 81 per cent Of the
total dry matter of the plant. The
actual damage is even greater, for the
nutrients lost are the most soluble and
hence the most digestible part Of the
food elements.
Early cut hay contains a higher per-
centage of protein, but the early cut
ting may impair future stands. Time
Of cutting deserves much planning so
as to get good quality Of hay as well
as maintain a good stand.

Legume Hay for Lambs
Is of Big Importance

The Purdue experiment station re-
ports results which show the i'm
portance Of legume hay for lambs.
Two hundred lambs were divided into
two lots and turned into a field Of
well-matured corn which also had a
light stand Of matured soy beans. One
lot was given no extra feed, while the
second lot received a pound Of soy
bean hay per lamb per day. The Sec
ond lot gained little over nine pounds
in 40 days, while the first lot gained
only a little over three pounds per
lamb in 40 days. In other words, the
second lot returned approximately six
pounds of gain for the extra 40 pounds
Of soy bean hay, which is Of course
an especially good return for hay. In
addition to this, the lambs were de-
cidedly thrifty, while those in the first
lot were not at all growthy.

Chickens Ills Easier
Prevented Than Cured

Correct housing conditions and the
feeding Of cod liver oil will forestall
certain common ailments of hens, all
ments such as colds, roup and laying
paralysis, which are much more easily
prevented than cured, advises Miss
Cora Cooke, extension poultry special
list, University farm, st. Paul.
Having housing conditions right is
the most important means of controll-
ing common colds or roup, Miss Cooke
says. 1t is especially necessary to
avoid overcrowding. A house 16 by
80 feet is large enough for 100 Leg
horns, or 100 Rocks. More than one
Leghorn for each three square feet, or
one Rock to each four square feet, Is
almost certain to lead to colds or
roup.
Good ventilation, without drafts, is
a second important condition. The
usual straw loft house, or we'll
insulated shed roof house with front
ventilation should be satisfactory.
However. the conditions within the
house should be the test. Unless the
air in the poultry house Is fresh and
free from the odor of ammonia, the
ventilation needs correcting. Damp
litter is another indication of improp-
err ventilation. Although the litter
should be changed as often as it be-
comes damp, the ventilation should be
such that frequent changes will not be
necessary.

Owners Ignorant
Of Logs Value
Much Timber Sold From
Farm at Less Than Its
Worth to Buyer.

Much timber is marketed from the
farm woods of Ohio with little idea in
the mind Of the owners of the real val
lie of the product, according to F. w.
Dean, extension forester for the Ohio
state university. Saw logs, Dean
points out, are the most important
item from which the farm wood in
come is derived, when timber is sold.
And there is very great uncertainty
end ignorance about the measurement
of the board foot content Of saw logs.
Inaccurate Scales Used.
The scale which has been used in
Ohio for many years, called the Doyle,
Doyle-Scribner, or Buckeye log rule,
gives two sets Of results, both of them
incorrect, when applied to large logs
and when applied to small logs, Dean
says. All other agricultural commod-
tiles, as well as manufactured prod
lcts, are marketed with an accurate
knowledge Of their volume, and Dean
believes more accurate measures
should be applied to the timber
products.
Too Much for Small Logs.
"One of the chief difficulties with
the Doyle rule is that it is based upon
a formula which allows too much for
slabs from small logs, and too little
for slabs from large logs" says Dean.
Consequently. small logs from to
20 inches in diameter yield from so
to $50 per cent more board feet of
lumber than the scale shows. Large
logs, 30 to 40 inches through, yield
decidedly less lumber than the scale
calls for. The Doyle rule was fairly
accurate when applied to the virgin
forests where the saw logs were of a
size larger than those usually cut now.
Today large percentage Of the saw
logs taken from second-growth timber
are less than 20 inches in diameter,
and the rule is not accurate when ap-
piled to these logs"

A soil mulch reduces evaporation of

WRANGELL

Herring eloped from fisher mems pot during the recent storm is advice in the Wrangell Sentinel. About 150 barrels of herring were held in a pot near Lincoln Rock, inside of the Wrangell Breakwater, last week and the pot drifted tp against the reef. Everything went to pot.
 The Odin, Sveta Ana and the Phoenix of Petersburg are try ing out their luck on the herring around here. They already have about 200 barrels of herring in their pot close to the floating cannery dock.
 Nine pair of horns were to be fitted on as many baby Elk in Wrangell very soon. The horns will be put on straight and the boys made to ride the goat. A boat load of Elk is expected over from Ketchikan to make the herd larger, and some of the Juneau and Petersburg maver- icks are expected over.
