Combined Grain and Mash
Trough Is Recommended

A new Cornell bulletin tells how
to build a combination grain and
mash trough for feeding chickens.
The combination trough might be
termed double-decker with the
mash feeder on top and the grain
trough directly under it. The grain
trough is held up against the mash
feeder by a knotted rope and can
be lowered at grain-feeding time ;
or If no grain is fed, both troughs
may be used as mash feeders; this
reduces the floor space necessary
for feeding.
The bulletin gives list of ma
terials necessary for building the
combination trough and the illus
trations are arranged in the proper
order of building. If the lumber is
bought according to the list, little
rip-sawing is necessary, according
to the authors. They also suggest
that the lumber. which is of regu-
lar size. should be planned, because
planed edges are easier to keep
clean.

Spray While You Prune

The home fruit grower can do
much while he is pruning his trees
toward lessening the number of in
furious insects he will have to COM
bat during the succeeding growing
season, says a writer in the Rural
New Yorker. The close inspection
of individual trees necessary for this
work makes it impractical for the
commercial orchardist, but it is a
time and labor saver for the home
grower with a few trees and little
spraying equipment. While prun-
ing keep a sharp lookout for egg
masses, larvae and cocoons., Among
the many things to look for. the
following may be mentioned: The
gelatin-like masses of eggs of the
tent-caterpillar, which are usually
placed on small twigs; frothy egg
masses of the tussock-moth; the
coccoons of the codling moth which
will be found under the loose bark
Of the tree trunk; pear psylla, mi
mute insects which often hibernate
under the rough bark on the trunks !;
twig-girdlers may be controlled by
burning all twigs found on the
ground.

Just as the days of the old-fash-

In taking the radiator cover from
the artistic standpoint only, person
can procure several designs and fin
ishes to suit almost any period design
and color scheme, but this is not all
that is desired in a radiator cover.
When the question. of radiator covers
comes up it will be well TO contem-
Mate many things that are vital in the
real function of the radiator cover.
First of all, inquire what material
is used in the cover. Any sheet metal

Lost Spud Find May
Bring Growers Gold
Development of the Peach
blow Colorado's Hope.

BY c. H. Metzger, Associate Horticui-
+ turist. Colorado Agricultural College.
Colorado potato growers may in
crease their incomes at least $780,
600 yearly within three or four
years as the result of the finding
and development of an almost en-
tinct strain of potatoes known as
dark red Peachblow or Red Nc
Clure.
The lost strain that is believed to
have originated 80 years ago was
located on the Mcclure farm at Car
bondale, from which it took its
name. 1t was sport or Seeding
of the Peachblow potato.
Although this potato was pro-
duced in 1905 at a farm near Car
bondale, all trace of it disappeared
until 1927 when the college in con-
nection with its potato Improvement
program, collected $50 varieties of
potatoes for comparative tests. In
this collection was the dark red
Peachblow. 1t had been obtained
from a Teller county rancher.
Later the same strain of potatoes,
which commands a premium of 10
to 10 cents 100 pounds on the mar
ket because of it's attractive color,
was found on farm in FL Paso
county and a ranch in Teller county.

Soft-Shelled Eggs

There are several causes for soft
shelled eggs. says the Idaho Farm
er. Sometimes when pullets are
laying heavily, the yolks and whites
are formed more rapidly than the
shell-forming material. Another
cause is the lack of shell-forming
material or the vitamin which
makes the mineral available. This
vitamin is found in cod liver oil
and sometimes the addition of I
per cent of cod liver oil in the ra-
ton or per cent of the mash will
help to eliminate this difficulty. /
would suggest adding 2 per cent of
ground oyster shell flour to the
mash temporarily until you over
come the trouble. Occasionally
hens that are overfat will lay soft
shelled eggs and persist in doing
so regardless of method of feeding.
In some cases the shell-forming ma
terial is not made available fast
enough and the condition rights IT.

slows up.

Many Beginners Do Not

A pair of larg: cutting teeth in

the animal is a year old and under
two. -Four teeth there mean a
two-ycar-old and under three-and
so on. The age may vary a little
in months. but this is of no cOnse-
quence to the farmer. The snag
comes when the eva shows "a full
mouth" which puts the mounting
man on his own resources for age
beyond five years. ...l ..srz
After that the gums begin to
shrink away from the crown of the
tooth. making it appear long from
cutting edge to gums. If the gums
do not come up snugly to the
crown of the tooth, then you have

tooth is long from the crown to the
gums your eve has seen her best

Milk Goats Worthwhile
and Quite Profitable

Among worthwhile and profitable
pets the milk goat stands high.
The goat is one pet that pays its
board bill.
The ordinary scrub milk goat
costs ten to twenty five dollars and
gives about Navigation of milk
daily when well fed. She usually
freshens about the first of the year
and often has twin kids. AS for
feed, the prOvprbial tin can ration
is a hoax. She must he fed quite
like a COW, and her feed must be
ample IL she is milking heavily
Goats can be fed all of the usual
grains and they can be trained to
eat other products as well. In a
series of experiments at the college
one group was reared on hay. fish
meal, and oats. Another group
was fed ground liver.
Goats milk is white and butter
made from it is white. The fat in
goats milk is in such small par
ticles that the cream rises slowly,
and it takes several days in the
ice chest before a thick cream lay
er is formed. The fat content is
about the same as that of a Jersey
COW. although it varies widely with
individual animals.
The market for goats milk is
usually localized. 1t is usually de-
veloped by the initiative of the
owner who sells milk to. local
hospital, sanitarium. or to special
customers.

Farmers Institutes Are
Crowd Bringers in Ohio

Although community funds for
farmers Institutes have shrunk from
$4,000 to $4,000, or 40 per cent,
the total attendance or number of
persons served has continued to in
crease, a rise Of IA per cent in the
last two years, according to J. P.
Schmidt, supervisor of farmers in
stitutes for the agricultural extern
sion service of the Ohio State uni
versity.
Funds, he says, have decreased
but requests for help are greatly in
creasing. Costs averaged S.3 cents
per person, attending in 1892, of
which the state paid % cents. The
total attendance was 709,395.
Institutes, which are open to any
citizen in the community and which
have been publicly supported since
1880, were held in all SO Ohio coun-
| ties. Wayne county, home of the
Ohio agricultural experiment sta
tion, had the largest number of in
IL
1892, IS Institutes with total at
| tendance of 37,760.
Eighty-four per cent of the SO
members of the present regular
farmers institute staff, Schmidt
pointed out, are farmers. The aver
age person in this group rates as
successful in some farm enterprise,
college trained, or master farmer
or master hOmemaker.
Twenty cooperating state agen-
cies furnish some talent at no cost
or for expenses only. Among these
are the state department of agri-
culture, the Ohio agricultural exper-
iment station, farm organizations,
state department of education, Ohio
Bankers association, state depart
ment of health, Commodity Market
ing associations, and the Ohio
Council of Churches.

Window Shade Plays Big
Part in Home Decoration

The possibilities that lie in the cor
rect use of window shades should be
considered.
Too often people look on them only
as means of obtaining privacy in the
home. They do not realize that shades
have another very important use.
Shades play big part in carrying
out the interior and exterior decora-
tive scheme of every room. In fact,
shades often play such an important
part as to the keynote Of the color
scheme.
Imagine for moment that the
housewife has worked out a pleasing
and novel color scheme in her living
room. Let her then shade her win
dOws with some unwarranted color
that does not harmonic with the 9TH
er decorations. The effect that she
has tried so hard to produce is de-
stroyed with one stroke.
What would have been charming,
delightful room, had shades Of the cor
rect color been used, is turned into an
unattractive and depressing room. Yet
too many people do not realize the
cause.
This feature of the room-window
shades demands just as careful study
as does the background or wall. the
floor and the furniture. In fact, you
might go further and say, with truth,
that it is the most important Of them
all. There are today so many differ
ent colors and so carefully composed,
that it is a very easy matter to visit
decorators shop and find exactly
what you want at a reasonable ex-
pense. An intelligent selection guided
by an experts hand will cause shades
to blend with the Grapes and fur-
niture.

MORE MAY GO INTO
POULTRY BUSINESS

in Past Year.

Poultry paid in 1892. 1t was one
of the few farm crops that did

could be considered profitable
Therefore more farmers will go In.
to the poultry business in 1888. Not
only farmers but clerks, widows,
tenants, and out-of-job city dwell.
ers will turn to poultry production
as q source of livelihood.
"All this may or may not be a IA
vorable sign of progress for the in
dustry," says Roy S. Dearstyne,
head of the poultry department at
North Carolina State college. "a
large percent of those people en-
tering the poultry game make fail
ures of the business due chiefly to
a lack of knowledge Of fundamen-
tails. Then, too, new development
is sometimes out of proportion for
the local markets to consume or
the existing facilities to move at
fair prices. If a person has dis
like for birds. he should by all
means stay out of poultry produc-
ton"
Mr.. Dearstyne points out that
poultry growing requires long
hours of work and study; careful
attention to detail and the ability
to accept and overcome disappoint-
ment.
