CONSERVATION PROGRAM For
1888 Is GIVEN FORMAL
APPROVAL

Formal approval of the conserva-
ton program for 1888 was given by
the Secretary of Agriculture on Oct
ober %. In the main, 1t conforms
to- the tentative outline announced
late in September.
Among the changes is definite pro-
vision for potato goal. Growers
In commercial potato producing
areas voted on the proposed acreage
sterilization provisions in refer
endum, which resulted in favor
able vote by more than 80 percent
of those who voted.
Goals will be established only on
commercial potato farms which grow
three acres or more of potatoes. In
the early potato producing areas, 6
cents per bushel will be paid on nor
NAL yield of each acre in a farms
potato goal A payment of cents
per bushel will be made in the late
potato producing areas. The ma
tional goal for potato acreage is be-
tween 100000 and 100000 acres,
which is near the average acreage
of 3,346,OOO for the ten years, 1928
1887. Goals for the states have not
yet been determined.
The potato sterilization program.
it is stated, will tend to encourage
acreage up to the goal and to dis
courage acreage above the goal. Pay
ments will be based on the number
of acres planted, up to the limit of
a farms goal. The maximum pay
ment can be earned by planting the
full goal. Payments will become
progressively smaller as planted
acreage goes either above or below
the farm goal.
AS was the case when the 1887
Agricultural Conservation Program
was announced, the actual appropria-
ton for next years program has not
been made. The 1888 program,
therefore, is dependent upon the ac-
ton of Congress, although the Con-
gress, in 1886, authorized an annual
appropriation for carrying out pro-
gram under the Soil Conservation
and Domestic Allotment Act.
With the national provisions ap-
proved, the next step in the 1888
program will be the preparation Of
bulletins for each state or region
containing the applicable provisions
of the national bulletin.

AAA ANNOUNCES 1887 PAY
MENTS WILL BE MADE AT
MAXIMUM RATES

Payments to farmers participating
in the 1897 conservation program
will be made at maximum rates pro-
vided under the program as announc-
ed last December. it is stated by the
AAA. AS originally announced. the
1887 program included tentative
schedule of payment rates subject
to a 10 percent adjustment upward
or downward, depending. upon the
extent of participation by farmers.
1t is explained that in computing
a farmers payment, his pro rata
share of the expense of administer
ing the program in his county will be
deducted from the gross amount A
factor in the decision to pay the max
mum rate was the unusual character
of local administrative expenses
which this year are deductible from
payments to farmers. Local expenses
during recent months have included
a considerable amount Of aerial map
ping work which will be used in adj
ministering the program in future
years. 1t is partially to Offset these
extra expenses that the maximum
rates will be paid.

Children Fear Snakes
ONLY When Misinformed

Is the fear of snakes born in us?
Science says not. No child fears
snakes unless he has been previous
ly frightened about them. When we
are too young to remember, we
catch the fear from older persons,
asserts writer in the Detroit News.
Among many absurd ideas is that
a snake stings with its tongue; that
milk snake milks cows; that a
hoop snake rolls; that any snake has
power to charm" and that a female
swallows her young.
There is some slight evidence for
the last statement, although the fact
that snake when cut open is found
to contain young is no sign she swal-
lowed them. Some snakes are vivi-
parous Clearing their young alive)
while others are oviparous (egg lay
ing).
The several kinds Of garter
snakes, water snakes and the little
brown snake give birth to living
young.
The black snake, the milk snake,
and the grass snake are among the
egg-laying species.
Snakes eggs may usually be rec
ognized by their longish shape and
white leathery covering.
The time for Matching varies with
weather and other things. With the
pretty green or grass snake, it takes
about two weeks.

Fulgurites

Fulgurites are CLASSY formations,
or ightning-tubes, due to the fusing
Of loose sand along the path of a
lightning discharge beneath the sur
face of the ground. They have been
known for ages, although they are
not especially common. They are
found of various sizes, notes writ
er in the indianapolis News, from a
fraction Of an inch to several inches
In diameter, and in some cases
extend more than twenty-five feet in
to the ground. The inner surface
is of smooth glass, while the outer
consists of rough, incompletely
fused particles of sand, and often
bears longitudinal ridges and fur
rows. The tubes frequently are
twisted in spirals and are sometimes
branched. At one time they were
believed to have been formed by ex-
cretions from the roots Of plants.
Their true origin was first explained
by DR.. Hentzen, of Paderborn, Ger
many, in 1905. Darwin, in his 'Nat-
uralist's Voyage Around the World, "
tells of finding these tubes in large
numbers along the Rio de la Plata,
In South America, where shifting
sand hills had left them projecting
above the ground.

Soy Meal Chick Feed Is
Recommended in Rations

Since soybean oil meal has be-
come such an important factor in
poultry rations, due to its economy
as protein carrier, 1t is worth noting
the results of experiments at the
University Of Wisconsin, says the
Country Home Magazine. An all
mash ration containing IL parts soy
bean meal, two parts meat scrap,
and two parts dried milk plus min
erals Gin 100 parts) was better than
one containing is parts soybean
meal plus minerals, as measured
in weight of chicks at and 20
weeks, and in feed consumed for
gains made.
Another ration consisting Of IL
parts soy meal, two parts meat scrap
and two parts dried milk plus min
erals Gin 100 parts) was not so ef-
fective as one containing eight parts
meat scraps and eight parts dried
milk, when measured at eight
weeks, but was about as good at 20
weeks. The 1922 ration (above)
was about equal to one with eight
parts soy meal, four parts meat
scraps and four parts dried milk
plus minerals and one with eight
parts meat scraps and eight parts
milk at 20 weeks Of age. With lay
ing pullets at II months various
combinations of soy meal with meat
scraps and dried milk plus minerals
gave good egg production and were
better than when the sole source Of
protein was soybean meal.

BY Roy 8. Dearstyne, Head Poultry Depart
ment, North Carolina State College.
WNU Service.
The poultryman who has well
managed flock is the poultryman
who will receive the biggest returns
from the fall increase in egg pro-
duction.
Pullets should be xeady for the
laying house in early fall. The house
should be thoroughly cleaned and
disinfected before the birds are
placed inside. Broken window panes
should be replaced, and If drop cur
tains are used on open-front houses,
these should be checked for needed
repairs.
Gull all pullets carefully. Market
all sub-normal birds, especially
those with excessive bleaching of
shank and face parts. These birds
are usually carriers of coccidiosis.
Do not change pullets from grow
ing mash to laying mash until they
have reached rs per cent produc-
ton. Then change the mash grad
ually over a period of two weeks.
Don't buy cheap mash-it is the
most expensive in terms of results
produced for money spent. Keep a
good grade of mash before layers
at all times. See that they have
plenty Of fresh water.
Practice rigid sanitation to keep
the death rate down. Keep accurate
records on the flock. Without rec
ords the poultry business is hit
or-miss affair-mostly miss.
Good breeding males are essen
tial but scarce. If these have not
been secured, get them at once.
Early fall is good time to plant
grazing crops. A mixture of Italian
rye grass and crimson clover will
provide excellent winter and spring
grazing.

Consult Your Vet

Although the vaccination Of cattle
against Bangs disease contagious
abortion) looks promising, 1t is still
experimental and should not be
done except by a skilled veterinari-
an, warns DR.. J. r. Mohler, chief
of the bureau Of animal industry in
Washington. The vaccine being used
contains living Bangs disease
germs, and should not be used on
mature or pregnant cattle as it may
infect them. AS applied to calves
to prevent, not to cure, the disease
it seems to give encouraging re-
suits, but the results Of tests in $50
herds in q number Of states are
needed before the vaccine can be

Spencer's First Writing
ON Sand. Snow. Ice. Brick

Plat r. Spencer, whose system
of penmanship, often lavishly en-
bellished, was taught in many
schools throughout the country, was
born at East Fishkill, N. Y, Novem-
Der Z, 1900, the youngest of eleven
children. When he was ten years
old his family set out for the West,
settling at Jefferson, Ohio. Always
passionately fond of penmanship,
Spencer began writing in his early
years upon anything available
sand, snow, ice, brick, and fly
leaves of books, and taught his first
writing class in 1915.
After some experience as clerk in
a store and supercargo on lake
vessel, notes writer in the Cleve-
land Plain Dealer, Spencer entered
on his life work as a teacher Of
penmanship. Besides conducting his
own school in log house on his
farm at Geneva, Ohio, he travelled
around the country teaching and
lecturing in various academies and
business colleges. Through his adj
dresses he was instrumental in
founding business colleges and in
promoting the American system Of
business education.
Spencer was among the earliest
to recognize the promise of James
A. Garfield and to encourage him to
enter public life. He was instru-
mental in securing his nomination
when first elected to congress.
Spencer was married and had six
sons and five daughters. He died at
his home in Geneva, Ohio, May 16,
1864.

Blacker Than Coal

To most Of us coal seems to be
the limit Of blackness, but there is
one substance that is much blacker |;
silica black. It is formed Of coal
crushed to a fine powder and mixed
with pulverized silica. This COM
pound is heated in a vacuum at
a temperature of 600 degrees Fab
renheit, and when the gas and 9TH
er products have been driven of the
residue is found to be much blacker
than coal, says a writer in London
Tit-Bits Magazine. Silica black has
many uses-paints, shoe polishes,
insecticides and fume absorbents
usually contain a certain proper
ton Of it. Its value lies largely in
the fact that it mixes easily with
oil, the color is permanent, and it
resists acids and chemicals.
