stacks of wheat on his farm. The
threshing rig of Samuel Daniels
had just completed threshing out
two stacks Of a setting of four

chain to the engine and hauled to
safety.

Questions Pertaining To
Agriculture and Home
Problems Confronting Farmers and
Homemakers Answered BY
University Farm

When can parsnips be used and
are they poisonous at certain stag
es of growth?
Parsnips can be used at any
time after the roots have become
large enough. They may be dug in
the fall, stored or left in the
ground over winter. They are not
poisonous at any time, but, after
they start to grow well the second
season, the roots are apt to become
tough and woody and undesirable
to use from that standpoint.-A. e.
Hutchins, Division Of Horticulture.
Could you suggest q treatment
for q cow that has sore teats-
These sores are small at first, but
get larger and crack open all the
way around the teat. These cracks
scab over, but the scabs come OH
at each milking and feel like sand
in the hand. I have tried several
ointments without success.
I presume your cow Is affected
with form Of cowpox. but cannot
be certain without examining the
animal. would suggest that you
try zinc oxide ointment on the
teats and If that does not work to
call your veterinarian. It Is possi-
BILE that a solution of silver nitrate
may have to be used, but as this Is
a severe cauterizing agent, would
advise that you do not attempt to
apply it yourself.-C. p. Fitch, DIV
ision Of Veterinary Medicine.
Can a colt get too fat? I have one
IL weeks old that seems to be put
ting on too much weight
It is possible for q colt to get too
fat. Some mares milk much heav-
Ter than others, and II the colt Is
still nursing and eats quite a bit OF
grain, it is very apt to get over
weight. When colts are too TAT,
they are apt to go wrong IN their
legs, especially the hooks, even
though they may get considerable
exercise. Although q IL weeks OLD
colt Is rather young to wean, sug-
gest in this case that you wean 1t
and turn 1t out where 1t Will get

Can you suggest recipes for us

as you would any other variety OF
