n'oday's Horoscope

Today gives great intuition and
a powerful, perhaps naughty ma
ture. You ought to make a place
for yourself in the world, but do
not be too anxious to fight for
justification, but rather seek to
win it by merit. Seek friends as
well as followers: use your posi-.
ton to help others not so FORUM
ate, and remember that pride
generally has a fall.

BUTTERMILK SHOWN TO BE
GOOD CORN SUPPLEMENT-

Feeding trials carried out this
past summer under the direction
Of e F. Ferrin, swine specialist at
University Farm, show that cream
cry buttermilk is an efficient sup
plement to a corn ration for grow
ing pigs.
Not only did pigs fed corn and
buttermilk make more rapid daily
gains than those on alfalfa and
rape pastures, but they consumed a
smaller daily ration of corn and
consequently made their gains at a
smaller cost. However, says Ferrin,
the use of pastures should be a
common practice followed by swine
growers.
Ferrin reports that three lots of
Z pigs each, averaging SO pounds,
were put on feed June q. Until
September 20, they were handled
corn twice daily, at about 3 pounds
of corn per 100 pounds weight all
three lots. The first group of pigs
were fed in dry lot, receiving
pounds of creamery buttermilk
with each pound of corn. Pigs in
Lot ran on alfalfa pasture, and
those in Lot 3 on rape pasture. In
GLIDING the value Of first crop
of alfalfa hay which was harvested
and the benefit of this legume to
the soil, total returns from the
alfalfa lot exceeded those from the
rape pasture, says Ferrin. How
ever, the cost of 100 pounds of gain
on pigs on both pastures was S4.21,
while for those fed buttermilk it
was S3.70. Pigs fed buttermilk ate
231 pounds of corn and 694 pounds
of buttermilk for each 100 pounds
of gain, while those on pasture ate
1888 pounds of corn. The pigs on
pasture required ever 4 times as
much salt, also.
Buttermilk is a good feed to
balance grains, both in minerals
and protein, asserts Ferrin. It
contains three and one-half per
cent high quality protein, four and
one-half per cent carbohydrates
and eight-tenths of one per cent
Of minerals. Its only criticism is
it's high percentage of water and
small amount CT dry matter.

spread In the living standards and
production costs of the various
countries. In order to make Mr..
Sayre's plan workable it would be
necessary for America and a num-
Der Of other countries to lower
their living standards to- those now
being endured in the Orient ond
southern Europe. Personally, 7 do
not hesitate to say that the Ameri-
can people will never consent to
such a lowering of their living
standards. Nearly all who emigrat-
ed to this country were prompted
by a desire to improve their living
standards and no one is in favor
Of turning the hands of the clock
backward.
Group At 1t Again
I find on my trips over the dis
trict that a number of meetings
have been held by a so-called nom
partisan group for the purpose of
improving the condition of agricul-
ture. recall that similar meetings
were held just before election two
years ago so am wondering
whether there isn't just a little
politics mixed up with these meet
ings. If the proponents of the plan
have remedy as we were told two
years ago, why didn't they follow
through with it at that time in
stead of quitting right after the
election in 1896? AS a matter Of
fact, the whole thing savors of
politics and that has been the
trouble with most efforts to help
the farmer in the past.
Relatives Fare Well
President Roosevelt evidently
has very high regard for the
abilities Of his relatives. He recent
ly appointed Preston Delano, a
distant cousin, comptroller of the
currency at a salary of $4,000 a
year. Other members Of the family
who have been taken care of are
his son James as secretary at $10,-
600 a year; another cousin, the late
Warren Delano Robbins was APP
pointed Minister to Canada at $1O,-
600 per year and when he died Mr..
Roosevelt appointed the widow AS
sistant Chief of the Foreign Service
Buildings office, State Department,
$500 per year. Her job is to visit
the different countries in which we
have embassy and legation build
ings and help with the decorations;
also in offering helpful suggestions
in arranging the furn ture. In ad
diticn to the $500 salary Mrs.
Robbins is allowed an expense ac-
count for travelling and hotels.
Many of my readers can recall
the cries of protest that came from
the Roosevelt camp back in 1882
when Allan Hoover took a job as
consulting engineer with some
western air transportation COM
pany. I dread to think what would
have been said had Mr.. Hoover APP
pointed four members of his i'm
mediate family to lucrative gov
ernmental positions.
This is a funny would, isn't it?

Questions Pertaining
To Agriculture

L have been feeding a fish pro-
duct to my turkeys. Should con-
tinue this until marketing time?
Nc, 1t is now time to quit feed
ing fish products. 1t is always well
to discontinue fish about 8 weeks
before marketing to avoid flavor
ing of the flesh of the turkeys
w. A. Billings, extension vetinar-
ian.
How can L destroy boxelder
bugs?
The bugs can be killed by spray
ing them heavily with pyrethrum
fly spray. Nicotine sprays seem to
have much less effect on them.
The massed adults can be killed by
spraying them with kerosene, or
by pouring boiling water on them.
OF course, the use of kerosene and
boiling water should be restricted
to places where there is no danger
of injuring grass. young trees or
other plants. Alexander Hcdson,
entomologist.
I have a blue spruce that Is
branching out with three shoots at
the top, instead of one. Shall I cut
off two of the tips?
1t is perfectly all right to remove
two of the shoots. Select the shoot
that is nearest the center, and the
straightest. Then carefully remove
the others.-L. Sando, division Of
horticulture.
have just put 200 pullets into the
laying house. How much feeder
space should I provide?
Your flock should have at least
20 running feet of feeder opening
for each 100 hens, or in your case.
40 feet. Providing plenty of feed
is extremely important, and most
flockowners would be wise to check
upon the amount of feed hopper
space they are supplying. One poul-
tryman know got 125 dozen extra
eggs in a years time as a result of
building one feeder that cost him
s1.50-Cora Cooke, extension spec
ialist in poultry.
I set my strawberry plants one
and one-half by three and one-half
feet apart. Now I find the rows
completely filled, and plants are
growing between the rows. Will you
please tell me the best width for
rows?
A one and one-half foot width of
row is probably sufficient. This al
lows for 9 inches of spread on each
side of the mother plant. I would
cultivate or hoe out any plant form
ing beyond this width. With some
varieties it has also been found pro-
fitable to space or thin the plants
in the row.-Ernest Angelo, divis-
ion of horticulture.
Should I cover my asparagus bed
this fall.
In general, asparagus requires no
covering in regions where there is
a good snowfall. The tops, when
free of disease, may be left stand
ing to serve as snow trap. You
may prepare for an open winter
with little snow by covering the bed
with marsh hay, or similar pro-
lection. Marsh hay is preferable
to straw, since the latter is apt to
have a great many weed seeds.-A.

ture
