Poultry Raisers Should Plan Now
10 Improve Efficiency Next Winter

n S. Prevent lice and mites fror
chewing up your chickens. TIL
warmer the weather the taste
these insects multiply. They ar
easy to control with well-knowl
products. Get a copy of Poultr.

ternal Parasites of Chickens anG

6. More culling is probably done
in June than in any other month
of the year. That's partly be.
cause so many layers start to molt
from one cause or another. A
hen that molts in June isn't much
good. You'd better get rid of her.
2. Don't get excited if the pull
lets on range 60 into a partial
mott. 1t is a natural thing for
growing pullets to change their
coat of feathers several times dur
ing the growing period.
8. Turkey growers are urged to
place the feed and water contain
ers very near to where the grow
ing turkeys can get into the
shade. The turkeys will eat and
drink more throughout the day if
they don't have to go a long way
in the sun. Gorging on feed and
water at any one time may bring
about "drop crops"
9. Gather eggs at least three
times day. Eggs left in nests all
day lose a lot Of quality because
they do not get much chance to
cool. Gathering eggs often helps
retain quality and keeps them
clean.
10. Keep the fly population
down by the proper use of DOT.

building a two-story, well plan

June is time OF the year whel

| good month";" he says, "for jot.
ting down few notes about the
changes that you can make dur
ing this winter to improve next
years efficiency"
The following reminders to
poultry raisers for June are offer
ed by John P. Miller and Fred w.
Frasier, Extension Poultrvmen at
Washington State College.
l. Keep constantly on the alert
for signs of cocidiosis. Quick de-
lection and treatment will save
many hens and mean better re-
suits in the laying house. Get
the 1913 edition Of Poultry Point
ers No. 6 "Coccidiosis in Chickens
and Turkeys" from your county
extension agent.
2. If your wife says you need
a more convenient and better
place to keep the eggs after they
are gathered, ten to one she is
right. Most places where eggs
are held can be improved. Why
not make your egg-holding space
as comfortable as possible and yet
meet the requirements for main
tanning quality? It will mean
more money in your pocket. See
Poultry Pointers No. %, eggs
and their Care" Il
3. If and when you buy poul-
try remedies, be sure you know
what you are buying and what for.
In 1910 it was reported that there
were more poultry remedies on the
market than all other veterinary
remedies combined. Yet the cur
alive value of internal medication
for poultry is known to be ex-
tremely limited.
4. Be prepared for blustery
weather. Pullets and poults out
on range are safe if the have COW
er they can get under quickly.
See that such protection is pro-
vided.

.Sprinlklers Give
Good Results In
arm Irrigation

| Along with the increasing pop
ularity Of sprinkler irrigation
systems has come many questions
labout the installation and use Of
them, says Frank Webster.
Some Of the questions COM
monty asked are: SHOULD use
large sprinkler heads and less
lateral pipe, or vice versa?" s.Is
lit better to use IL six-gallon-a
minute sprinklers or 6 twelve
gallon a minute sprinklers?"
(Which is best-30 pounds pres
sure at the nozzle or 40 to As
pounds?" what kinds Of crops
is sprinkler irrigation suited to?"
According to r. N. Miller, Ex-
tension Engineer at Washington
Stat college, many farmers pre-
fer to use the smaller-sied
sprinkler heads Is to z gallons-a-
minute). Also, they apply the
water more gently, thus minimiz-
ing pudding and ground packing.
Large sprinklers az to 18 gall
lons-a-minute), on the other
hand, put the water on much
faster and cover more ground in
less time, but usually with more
pudding and soil packing.
The smaller sprinklers are US
ually moved lat convenient inter-
walls Of IL hours, often in the
morning and evening before and
after regular working hours. The
larger sprinklers should usually
be moved every 6 to 8 hours
which often means that the oper-
ator must stop working at anoth-
er part Of the farm while he
makes a trip to the sprinklers
and changes them. In choosing
between large or small sprink-
lers, says Miller, an important
consideration is the frequency
with which you prefer to move
them. .sza..f
TIL esmaller sprinklers work
nicely on 80 pounds pressure;
but both the smaller and the
larger ones seem to reach out
and do better job with higher
pressures. Under higher pres
sures, with both small and large
sprinklers, the water is broken
into a spray and there is less
tendency for ground packing in
the case Of row crops.

Ter irrigation is contained in u.

Homemahers'
Briefs
BY Lofsiia Cowdsn
Asst Extension Agent

Questions on canning an,
freezing are again coming int,
the Extension Office daily. w
regret that we have been unabl,
to keep up with the demand fol
freezing bulletins, but have re.
ordered several times. 81
One of the most persisten,
questions is 'Can I use my pres.
sure saucepan ror canning vege-
tables?" Grocery bills being what
they are, many homemakers are
wanting to can small SURPRISES
that turn up each week. Right
here I want to mention that the
Extension office has two pres
sure cookers that may be rented
on a daily rental fee for large
canning efforts. But getting back
to the pressure saucepan, it can
be used for canning "IF". ..-- 80.
The following IFS" are i'm
portant: ..r
IF the pan is tall enough to
hold pint jars on rack with the
saucepan lid locked in place:
You can't put jars on the bottom
of the pan without rack. It will
break the jars. .
If the saucepan has pressure
guage that allows the pressure to
be controlled accurately at ten
pounds pressure. It is wise to
have the guage checked for ac-
curacy. s
The last IF is that you must
follow a timetable adapted for
saucepans. In general, the pro-
cessing time for saucepan at ten
pounds pressure must be twenty
minutes longer than the time re-
commended for the pressure cam
ner. Pressure Gamer time tables
are available at the Extension Of
fee in bulletin form under the
title of "Home canning Of fruits
and vegetables"
You can also get a time table
for pressure saucepans from your
Extension Office.
Following are the processing
times for pints at ten pounds pres
ture which are recommended when
a pressure saucepan is used:
Asparagus As minutes; peas go
minutes; lima beans IS minutes;
cubed pumpkin IS minutes; snap
beans 40 minutes; strained pump
kin 30 minutes; beets As minutes:
spinach IS minutes; carrots 40
minutes; summer squash so min
utes; cream-style corn los min
utes; dry-pack. sweet potatoes IS
minutes; whole kernel corn IS
minutes; wet pack sweet potatoes
IS minutes; olkra As minutes;
Remember you can't open the
Gamer or saucepan until the pres
sure has gone completely down If
you are canning with glass jars.

wide, deep blue, the hair a dusky
cloud, brushed back from a widows
peak at the forehead. With lip
stick and rouge and a deliberate
turning up of the lips at the corners,
it was even an animated face. By
concentrating on Patty, Ellie found
she could keep the lips curved up
ward. She would forget all other
carnivals.
"Oh, my goodness" complimented
Patty. you look beautiful"
Ellie laughed. She tucked the
child's hand under her arm and
they started for the park grounds.

Patty had said, most everybody was

Patty considered gravely, but
asked no more questions.
"Oh look" thrilled Patty. 'There
it is. Please, please, let's 60 on
everything!"
Most everything" Ellie amended,
mot the really rough rides. But the
others"
She held tight the warm, squirm-
ing hand in her own, to fortify her
self for the first glimpse of the
sprawling tents. you have to get
over this, Ellie, my girl" she told
herself, gulping down the lump in
her throat. "Tonight's as good a
time as any,"
1t was like all carnivals before,
without the magic. No, she decided,

looking at Patty's happy face, It Is
I who am without the magic.
The bankers called from their
concessions, drawing the crowds
with imperative cries. Girls
passed, carrying feathered kew
pies, spangled whips, bright birds
and monkeys on sticks. There was
blend of hotdog and hamburger
OdOrs, coffee aroma, the roast
ing fragrance of peanuts and pop
corn. Everywhere were people,
eating ice-cream sandwiches,
drinking pink lemonade from
sweaty glasses.
Patty, high on the merry-go-
round, chung lovingly to her horses
bride and waved to Ellie every time
she passed.
"That was fun," she beamed, fin
ished at last, running to Ellie for
new adventure. They joined hands
and started over the grounds.

asked mans voice.
Instantly guarded and alert, Ellie
turned to look. She gazed warily,
straight into two gray eyes, So gray,
she thought. I'll always be push

sitting room, hotel office and Motel
lobby. The oleander occupied
considerable space in that room.
AS a child, between the ages Of
four and eight, I spent portion Of
each year at grandmother's. On the
occasion of my fourth birthday an
niversary she gave a party for me.
The feature of that party was
birthday tree. The oleander was
that tree, although in reality it was
but bush some 10 feet high, filled
with pink blossoms. From it she
took the presents I received, but
the children were not permitted to
touch the tree. Had 1t not been for
not remember that party or my
fourth birthday anniversary.
One of grandmother's two sons,
Uncle John, did not inherit his
mothers energy. He was not ex-
pected to do much, but he did
have, learned later, one must" job
during the winter months. He
must" keep the fire going in the
big wood stove in that triple serv-
ice room day and night so the tenn
perature never dropped to even
near the freezing point. The winter
temperature in Iowa frequently
dropped to 80 and more degrees
below zero. Over period of many
years Uncle John made good at his
one must" job. The oleander never
froze. 1t finally died-30 years after
that birthday party.
In my California yard there are
three oleanders. They are in a far
corner and l cannot reach them
with hose without changing it
to another connection. l find that
more of job than to carry water
to the trees in bucket. During
the summer months they call for
water practically every day. 1 fire.
quently think will cut them out
or let them die. Each time such
thought enters my mind l recall
grandmOther's oleander, my fourth
birthday anniversary, Uncle Johns
long years Of faithful fire tending,
and my Oleanders are spared.
continue to carry water.
Grandmother's oleander attracted
admiring visitors from considerable
distances. 1t was referred to as a
breath from the southland, and the
marvel was her ability to keep it
alive in so cold climate as that
of 1owa's 80 and more below zero.
Grandmother lived until we'll past
80, but the plant she had cherished,
withered and died some 10 years be-
fore her passing. do not know how
many years it had lived under her
own and Uncle Johns care.
