Nationals Hire Berg Manuh Signs Dea Card Rookie Pitching
On the
SiideLines
III With the Sports Editor.
BY DENMAN THOMPSON.

YITH a lou OF smoke
W. emanating from the
Y Y camp of the Nationals
in regard to projected
trades, one designed to add a
veteran pitcher to a staff none
too strong numerically, it may
be assumed there is some fire.
The answer probably is that
Owner Clark Griffith still is
busy sounding out rival mag
mates in regard to deals cal
culated to strengthen his entry,
but what they will involve If,
and when any are completed, is
a matter of conjecture.
Griff'S reiteration of his as
sertion that Judge is to get an
even chance with Kuhel for the
flrst-basing job is likely to pan
out only in the event the club
Is unsuccessful in its efforts to
get some worthwhile talent in
eACIld1lSe IOr MIN.
J0e's Age a Handicap.
THERE is no question the
veteran physically is ca
pable of satisfactorily
guarding the initial sack for
another season or two, but he
obviously is not the type to
build up with, and that is a
matter the management is
principally concerned with.
We have had a hunch right
along that Judge will be found
in a Detroit uniform when the
campaign gets under way, and
still have it, but that would not
necessarily mean the acquisi-
tion OF a Tiger pitcher. It is
morely likely to be a catcher,
and the news that Moe Berg
has just been added to the
roster does not alter the situa-
ton.
Berg no longer is a young
ster, being in his 31st year, and
his physical condition recently
has been such that his ability
to help a big league team is
extremely doubtful.
The Jewish player came up
with the Brooklyn Dodgers
just 10 years ago as shortstop
and after roaming around in
the minors for a couple of
years landed with the White
Sox, who converted him into
a catcher.

Good Farmer Will Not
Allow Manure to Leach

Farmers who would not think of pill
ing commercial fertilizers out of doors
do not hesitate to throw manure out
into open yards where it is allowed to
remain for months subjected to leach
ing by every rain, states r. NJ. Salter,
Ohio agronomist. "Ten tons of fresh
mixed manure from horses and cattle
will contain about 80 pounds of nitro
gen, IS pounds Of phosphoric acid and
IS pounds of potash" he says. ITO
carry an equal amount of fertility it
would require $50 pounds of nitrate
Of soda, 225 pounds of 20 per cent su-
perphosphate and $50 pounds of murl-
ate of potash.
"a 16-year test at Wooster, Ohio,
shows that four tons of manure ap-
piled to corn in a four-year rotation
has given increased crops per rotation
worth $805 at present farm prices,
while an equal amount of chemical
fertilizers gave additional crops worth
$99S per rotation"
Because 0ne-half Of the nitrogen
and phosphorus and nearly all the
potash are soluble in water, farmers
should protect manure from teaching
and get it on the fields as fresh as
pOssible.-Prairie Farmer.

Hog Cholera Outbreaks
Brought Under Control

Swine growers in many of the hog
producing states experienced serious
losses from outbreaks of hog cholera
in September, October and November.
1881. An estimate made by veterina-
rians Of the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture indicates that re-
cent losses were about equal to those
experienced in some sections during
the severe outbreak of 1926, when the
disease caused losses at the rate of
20 hogs In each 1000.
The outbreaks last year, however,
diminished rapidly with the liberal
use of anti-hog- cholera serum and the
advent of winter. December showed
a marked reduction in the prevalence
of the disease, in some states the num-
Der of outbreaks receding almost so
per cent. This 1881 experience is a
reminder that the disease is by no
means conquered, says the depart
ment, and that constant efforts should
be made to prevent these destructive
waves of hog cholera.

Experts Declare.

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture. l-WNU Service.
Rice by-products as feeds for live
stock are coming into more general
use in the United States now that the
production of rice is increasing. The
process Of milling rice for human
consumption removes about 10 per
cent of the protein and IS per cent OF
the oil content of the kernel in the
form of rice bran and rice polish.
These by-products and another known
as brewers rice make excellent feeds
for live stock. The proteins of rice
are similar in nutritive value to those
Of other grains and oil-bearing seeds.
For most purposes rice polish and
brewers rice have practically the
same feeding value as corn in fatten-
ing rations, according to e. W. Sheets
and A. T. Semple of the bureau of
animal industry, who conducted expe-
riments. The only exception is the
hog ration, in which the quantity of
rice polish must be limited because of
its tendency to produce soft pork.
When fed in limited quantities rice
polish may have 25 per cent more
value than corn because of its high
fat and protein content. Rice bran,
which also has q high feeding value,
apparently is valuable in preventing
nutritional leg weakness in growing
chicks. Rice hulls, on the other hand,
have practically no value as feed and
are commonly used for fuel by the
mills.
Miscellaneous Publication 132-MP,
"Rfce and Its By-products for Feed
ing Live Stock" published by the de-
partment, gives specific information
regarding the use of rice and rice by
products in feeding cattle, horses and
mules, hogs and chickens. Suggested
rations containing rice or rice BY
products are also included for various
kinds of live stock. Copies may be
obtained on application to the office

Keep Close Track
Of Farm Expenses
Some Simple Budgeting
Form Is Imperative for
Good Management.

Organization of the farm for more
economical management and the use
of a budget to determine the needs
and income of the owner are two
items to be considered by every North
Carolina farmer in 1882.
This thought was developed by COM
mittees on farm management and re-
organization at the regional meetings
held by the agricultural extension
service of the State college.
"A simple form of budgeting 's
recommended for farm and family re-
ceipts and expenses for the next year.
says the report. "This budget should
consider first those items which the
farm itself will produce in the living
Of the family and should include such
items as feed, seed, food, and fuel.
Second the budget should consider
those items which must be purchased
such as fertilizer. taxes, hired labor,
clothing, medical care and the like.
After the minimum cash needs of the
farm have been determined, the. farm
business should be studied SO that
cash enough to meet these needs
might be produced"
"By using average yields per acre
and production figures, every farmer
can approximate what he may expect
from his land and live stock In one
year," says R. Fl. Rogers, farm man.
agement specialist at the State col
lege. Cash crops should be restricted
in 1882 to meet the budget require
ment of minimum cash for the year
and even further if 1t interferes with
producing the entire living at home.
The coming year is also a period
when many needed physical improve
ments might be made in the farm
equipment. Much terracing, ditching,
repair work and other improvement
might be made at little cash outlay.
Mr.. Rogers says the coming season
will not offer much in the way of cash
income and 1t is imperative that the
suggestion Of the farmers committees
be carefully followed.

Emptving Pit Silo

Hay barn equipment helps John
Jacobsen, Hamilton county, Neb., to
get feed out of his silo. The silo is IL
by 40 feet. Ten feet of it is above
ground and 80 feet below the surface.
Mr.. Jacobsen installed a track and
carrier at the top with the track ex-
tending several feet beyond the edge
of the silo. Last summer when pas
ture was short, feed bunk was
placed under the track and the dairy
herd was given its silage there. The
track is high enough so wagon may
be run under it for filling. The silage
is lifted with horse. A bucket with
false bottom is used.-Capper,s

The Mortgage Debt

The farm mortgage debt in the Unit
ed States is estimated at 1924, 900, 000
January l, 1880, which is decline of
"a per cent from the peak of farm
mortgage debt in 1928, according to
the United States Department of Agri-
culture. The farm mortgage total in
1920 was $7,S57 100000. 1t is pointed
out that substantial amounts Of the
decrease since 1928 have been due to
foreclosure of mortgaged farms and to
scaling down of loans as a condition
of renewals.

Clover With Alfalfa

Alfalfa and red clover are sown to-
gether for hay mixture by Steve Woz-
MAX, Porter county, Indiana. He
sowed two parts red clover and one
part alfalfa, u pounds an acre on 20
acres. Barley was used as nurse
crop. The first fall the mixture was
pastured with dairy cows. The next
June Mr.. Wozniak cut % loads of ex-
cellent hay. Mr.. Woznlak keeps the
meadow through the second year after
sowing and then plows it under for
corn.-Capper's Farmer.

Lime for Steers

Tests conducted at Kansas agricul-
tural experiment station over a three
year period indicate that the feeding
of 40 pounds daily of ground lime
stone to a steer was more beneficial
than the feeding of two pounds of al
fa!fa daily. The lime-fed steers netted
5000 per steer over feed costs, while
the alfalfa-fed steers netted only $2S1
per steer. Both groups in each test
were fed a basal ration of corn, cot
tonseed meal and silage. The lime
fed steers gained 2.34 pounds each
daily. while the alfalfa-fed steers
gained 2.25 pounds each.
