Good Year Ahead
For PouItrynen

The year 1851 should be a rea-
sonably good one for Maryland
poultrymen. That is the opinion
Of Dr.. Marley A. JUL. head of the
poultry department at the Uni
versitiy of Maryland.
DR.. JUL predicts expanding mill
tary services and millions of fully
employed industrial workers will
consume more poultry products
He also expects eggs and poultry
meats to be priced favorably in
comparison to red meats, from the
consumers point of view, even If
price controls are established.
However, DR.. JUN points out
that pouitrymen will need to use
care if they want to get the most
returns from their hocks. He
urges regular culling to remove
loafers. He also states that care
full feeding methods will lower
costs by reducing waste.
Extension Bulletin Ill, entitled
"Culling for Most Profitable Egg
Production" is available free OF
charge from county agents or
from the Bulletin Room, Exten-
sion Service. University of Mary
land College Park. 1t gives de-
tailed information on culling the
poultry flock.

Life in the Country
Cows Are Pretty Good Heating Plants;
Some People Keep Them in the House

We have been having what is
almost an old-fashioned winter
this year. I notice that no mat
ter how cold 1t gets, it is never
as cold as 1t has been. and we
are all just plain sissies when
we complain of our ears and noses
getting cold. S
Anyway, we are having the
coldest weather I have seen since
I have been in these parts, and
it won't make me a bit mad if
the weather moderates and stays
that way.
And what is worse, I have got
ten myself into the bad habit
of looking at the thermometer
each morning before I go out to
do the milking. And when the
temperature gets down to about
10 above. I find I have consider
able trouble getting out of the
kitchen door.
This makes me feel sorry for
Tweed Howser, over next door
because his thermometer always
registers about Is or 8 degrees
lower than mine, and I know
what trouble he must be having.
After I get out of the house
and into the barn everything is
fine. Cows are pretty good heat
ing plants, and their stall is al
ways rather cozy in the pre-
dawn cold. .......
Which makes me believe that
the people Of other countries, who
quarter their livestock under Their
dwelling roofs, have something

Ten Years of 4-H CIubWork Make
Fu|I-FIedqed Farmer of Loudoun Bov

Ten years of All Club activity
in Loudoun County, Va, has made
Edgar Tillet farmer in his own
right. Edgar became All Club
alumnus last year. and finished his
club career in a blaze of winnings.
Edgar, who lives near Arcola, be-
came 81 last year-the age when
he could no longer participate in
club work. He climaxed his club
activities by winning the fat steer
grand championship of the entire
Atlantic Rural Exposition at Rich
mond, first place in the Shorthorn
class at the Eastern National at
Timonium, Md, and third place
in the middleweight class at the
Chicago International.
Although he is no longer a CLUB
boy" Edgar is not through with
the livestock business. He has
two Shorthorns and four Aber-
deem n-Angus steers he is getting
ready for the open classes next
year. Perhaps his younger brother
Bill will take over one of the
calves and try to equal his older
brothers All record.
Won a Gold Watch.
In addition to his having the
best Angus steer at Richmond and
steers that reached close to the
top in the other big shows, Edgar
also won a gold watch last year
for a report on his livestock ac-
tivities. He estimates that during
the 10 years he has been in All
projects. he has crossed $31 800
Besides he has his growing beet

herd and a nice herd of Holstein
dairy cows
Edgar's family give much of
the credit for their sons success
in All Club work to Bill Cock
erill, who was assistant county
agent at the time Edgar started
out. Bill, they say, has the ability
to get boy to do his best work
and to maintain interest in his
club projects. Bill later became
county agent and then resigned
from extension work to devote
full time to his dairy farm near
Purcellville.
Started 10 Years Ago.
Ten years ago Edgar started his
club work with Duroc hogs. He
won the Sears Roebuck award,
which gave him enough money to
buy a Holstein heifer. He then
won. the Holstein-Friesian award
and went from there into a beef
project. He likes to work with
beef cattle, but also likes the
profits that can be made in the
dairy business.
In addition to the home farm
Edgar is now operating a nearby
dairy form on a $3.50 basis. He
owns more than half of the cows,
and is thinking of building dairy
barn on the home place. He
would like to milk about 80 COWS
Although Edgar is finished with
All Club work, he is not through
with the show ring. He will be
in the open classes next year, and
from the looks of his calves he
will give somebody a lot of trou-
Bile.

This Week
in the
Garden
The frSt. cor

The first comfortable day for
working outdoors is considered by
many as the proper time to start
pruning trees and shrubs. Naples
should be left to later on and
grape vines are usually given the
first attention. When pruning trees
it is desirable to remove all dead
and diseased branches. cutting
them off as close to the trunk as
possible so that healing may take
place. Cover all freshly made cuts
with a tree dressing. Replace tree
wound dressings that have cracked
or scaled so that the area is kept
properly sealed until healing takes
place.
Tender shrubs such as crepe
myrtle and buddleia should be
pruned late in the season. For
sythia. spirea and other spring.
Towering shrubs normally are
pruned after the Towering season
but this is commonly overlooked
in the rush of early summer work
and in spite of the removal of
flower buds is better taken care of
at this season than not all all. Re
move the oldest canes at the
ground line.
1t is not too early to prepare the
cold frames for early spring use.
Spade the soil deeply adding sand
and sifted compost if necessary, so
that when sowing time arrives all
will be in readiness. Mound the
soil up as high as practicable on
the outside to keep out the cold.
The glass will draw enough heat
to thaw the soil and have it ready
and workable.
The recent freezes and thaws
are likely to push garden markers
out of the ground-put them back
before they are lost. The same
applies to many shallow-rooted
plants. If you are afraid to step
on them cover with a pail of dirt
Check the dahlia tubers to make
certain they are not drying out
Cannas, also, suffer from dry rot
Overwatering is to be avoided SO
add only small amounts to the
covering material should they
show signs of whitening.
Do not overlook vegetable grow
ing when planning the 1851 gar
den. A conference Of garden lead
ers is planned for this month tc
discuss plans for a national vege-
table garden program such as was
conducted during the last war.
Buying nursery stock is like

past Christmas-a dog trying to
reach his dead master. This sad
spectacle took place in a small
Midwestern town. The superin-
tendant of the local cemetery was
informed by phone late at night
that some one was digging within
the locked grounds. He dressed
quickly and after picking up a
local policeman went to investi-
gate.
Going to the section of the
grounds where they heard a noise
the two men were greeted by
defiant growls. Their f1ashlight
outlined a small terrier digging
on the top of a fresh grave. With
difficulty they succeeded in cor
nering the animal. Checking the
dogs license tag at the police
station the address of his owner
was obtained. Taking the dog
there they discovered that the
animals master had died a few
days prior and that, after refus-
ing food for several days, the dog
had disappeared. 1t was the grave
of his master on which the dog
had been digging.
1t is true that dogs drink more
water in the summer than in the
winter, but they do require GER
tain amount of water even in cold
weather. It is surprising to me the
number of people who kennel their
pets out of doors, or who keep
dish of water on the back steps,
forget to thaw it out or change it
when it becomes solid ice or
empty. Most people are conscious
of their pets need for water in hot
weather because they too are
drinking more. Just remember
your pet needs fresh water at all
times and a dog can't drink ice
or drink from an empty pan.
@. How can young puppy be
kept from continually playing
around peoples feet and chewing
them?
*. G.
A. Don't wiggle your feet and
attempt to kick the dog away. He
thinks you are playing with him
and comes back for more. Keep
your feet absolutely still and reach
over and give him slight slap. At
the same time say in cross tone
of voice. mo"
@. How long is a dog considered
to be puppy?-G. Y.
A. A dog is considered a puppy
until he reaches one year of age.

The gloxinia is new to most in
door gardeners, largely because
tuberS or plants have not been as
freely available as other bulbous
plants. The gloxinia is a rather
commonplace plant in many parts
of Europe although the climate
there is on the cool side, but most
European homes have the humid
ity that these plants seem to need.
The gloxinia is good COM
panion for the African violet. The
two have many things in common.
In the first place both are natives
of forest floors. The African vio-
let comes from the rain-drenched
forests of British East Africa. The
gloxinia Is a native of tropical
Brazilian forests.
Neither the African violet nor
the gloxinia likes direct sunlight
since they thrive in their native
habitats in the filtered light that
comes through the trees. Both like
soil rich in leafmold or humus
and both will tolerate moisture on
their foliage provided 1t dries off
before dark. In the direct sun
light, however, waterdrops will
leave brown spot.
The gloxinia most commonly
seen is a leafy plant with snowy
bell-shaped flowers above the foil
age. The usual color is rich red
with a white margin. There are
many other forms and colors, al
though there is not a true yellow
in the family. The whites are
rather striking but seldom grown
except by the connoisseur. Some
of the new hybrids are most pleas
ing and well worth having. The
flowers range in size from 1la to S
or 6 inches across.
Sow Early in the Year.
The gloxinia may be grown from
seed or the leaves may be started
in water or a Sand-peatmoss mix
ture as we do the African violet
leaves. The usual method of grow
ing is to buy the tubers which are
much like those of the tuberous
rooted begonias. Seed should be
sown in January or February al
though those who raise large num-
bers frequently start them into
growth through late winter and
spring. Bloom may be expected
in about four months after start
ing. 1t takes five to seven months
from seed to bloom.
The tubers normally available
from the suppliers are young, from
l to 1& inches in diameter. They
should be placed in starting
mixture consisting of equal parts
of peatmoss and sand. Nestle
the tubers into this leaving the
top of the tuber barely exposed.
Moisten with tepid water and
place in a warm lighted room.
When the second pair OF true
leaves appear lift the tuber with
the starting medium undisturbed
on the roots and place in 4, Az
or inch pot, depending upon the
size of the tuber. The mixture
to be used in the pot should con-
