vided for each 400 square feet OF

house, advises the North Carolina

be placed in the center of the house
10 feet apart and feet from the
floor. To prevent waste of light.
reflector is inches in diameter
and inches deep should be used
with each light bulb. RI all
night lights are used then dim
light with reflector is best with
two 10 or Is watt bulbs being suf-
fcient for house 20 by 20. Where
other than all-night lighting is used
the lights should be regulated so
that the birds have from II to Ia

| FARM
lOPICS
COWS ON PASTURE
NEED GRAIN FEED
Dairy Specialist Offers Some
Good Advice.

When COWS are turned on good
pasture in the spring and early
summer, the amount of grain fed
IN their ration can be reduced. said
John A. Arey, extension dairy spe-
cialist at State college.
Grazing on lush grasses, a COW
can obtain enough nutrients with the
roughage to sustain her body weight
ana produce a certain quantity of
milk.
A Holstein COW can eat enough
grass to maintain body weight and
produce about 80 pounds of milk a
day-a Jersey COW 20 pounds. But
when producing more milk, the
cows should receive enough grain
to compensate for the extra milk
given.
A Holstein on good pasture needs
about tWo-ffths of a pound of grain
for each pound of milk she produces
daily above 80 pounds.
4 Jersey on good pasture. be-
cause her milk is richer in butter
fat, will need about three-ffths of
a pound of grain for each pound of
milk she produces above 20 pounds
a day.
These figures were arrived at by
research workers who conducted
feeding experiments at the U. s
department of agriculture expert
ment farm at Beltsville, Md.
But Arey warned that the cows
Will need more grain when pasture
is short as result of dry weather
early in the season, or when the
pasture grasses become more ma
ture IN July and August.
AS the grass gets older, the
amount of crude fiber is increased
While the amount of nutrients de-
creases. On the other hand, grass
that IS just getting started early i'm
the year is Watery and low in feed
value. The best grazing is secured
between these two periods.

An Extra Milking Per Day
Will Result in More Milk

Without any change in feeding or
management, an extra milking per
day will result in 20 per cent more
milk, according to the Iowa State
college. Usually it does not pay to
milk COWS three times per day, how
ever, because milk is cheap and la
Dor IS high in price, relatively
speaking. Tests have shown that
the greatest amount of milk is Sc
creted Immediately after the udder
IS empty, and that proportionately
decreasing amount is secreted in the
hours that follow before the next
milking. Most of the high record
producing cows are MIXED three
times per day. and some of them
four times.

Blood for Transfusions

Horses, cattle and dogs are valu-
able enough or loved enough that
they are often given blood transfu-
slons in time of sickness to save
their lives. DR.. r. S. Amadon Of
the University of Pennsylvania
warned veterinarians to be careful
about the blood they used in trans
fusions: OK blood is always the
same. and can be used freely, but
horse blood varies in type, and
should not be used without exami-
nation to see that the blood OF the
donor and of the donee is the same.
The blood of purebred dogs varies,
but that Of mongrels is always the
same.

With the Agriculturists

High quality roughage is the SAT-
est feed for the dairy COW.
Dry litter and proper ventilation
in the houses help prevent the mul-
tiplication of bacteria.
The poultry department at Massa-
chusetts State college recommends
an occasional inspection of the nest
ing material.
Clean straw makes a good mulch
for strawberry paintings and helps
protect them from winter damage.
Whey, once discarded as a waste
product of cheese-making, is a good
source of calcium. phosphorus, pro-
TEN and milk sugar.
Fresh fruits make good bats for
rats. Melons, tomatoes, pumpkins,
cherries, bananas, apples, and
green corn are excellent. Pie crusts
and pumpkin seeds are also ac-
ceptable.

which are now being told in Louisi.
ana-and Washington.
The writer spent two DAYS in New
Orleans recently, and listened to
quite few circumstantial stories OF
the killing OF the Kingfish.
Some OF the curious conflicts in
stories told with the utmost positive
ness are.
That the bullet fired by DR.. Weiss
never struck Huey at all, the gun
being knocked up by Huey himself
just before Weiss could pull the trig-
ger. That Huey was actually killed
by bullet fired by one of his body
guards.
Against this the writer was told
just as positively that Dr.. Weiss
held his gun within few inches of
Huey's chest, and that Huey
knocked it downward. And that
there was no other wound save that
caused by Weiss bullet.
That the bullet which killed Huey
was extracted by the surgeon who
operated, and that it was a A.

Conflicting Stories .ibout

That Dr. Weiss was almost de-
capitated by the rain of bullets
poured into him, and died instantly.
That DR.. Weiss lived for five min

most of the wounds being in his
arms and legs.
That the pistol of DR.. Weiss was

That the pistol Of DR.. Weiss was
a modern, an expensive Browning.
That DR.. Weiss obtained the gun
because he decided to kill Huey.
That DR. Weiss always carried a
gun, usually leaving it in his auto
mobile.
That if Huey had been operated on
right away he would not have died.
That he was suffering chiefly
from shock, and hence the operation
should not have been performed
right away.
That he was suffering from loss
OF blood, and the delay was respon-
sible for his death.
That it was by the Kingfshs i'm

Grated, instead Of waiting for his
own surgeons, supposed to be en-

Just what good an investigation
would do is questionable.

Farley Has Reputation
For Keeping His Promises

Ius Tor ofganiza alton, as he proved
when he lined up the delegates for
Roosevelt in 1882, Jim Farley has
an enviable reputation for keeping
his promises. Sometimes he has
been prevented from delivering-by
White House ntervention-but there
have been no reports OF any impor-
tant political leader thinking that
Jim double-crossed him.
When Farley could not deliver IT
was always a glazing case of the
White House refusing to come
across. 1t was never another friend
OF Farley who got the job.
Meanwhile, in the seven wears
that have passed, Farley has kept
up his contacts. He has not forgot
ten any politicians first name. nor
his problems, nor his friends. and.
perhaps more important than all.
his enemies. No one catches Far

1t may be remembered that Far

case OF Sen. Millard E. Tydings. and
that ne took no part in it whatever.
1t was the Brain Trusters, the Cor
corans and Cohens and Hopkinses
who stumped their toes in Iowa in

There may be something that Far
