. CACTUS GOOD FOR THE COV Plant, Cotter Known in Scuthwest Prickly Pear, Tcnds to increase the Milk Flow. Cactus. or prickly pear, the name goes by in the SoutLwest, has be found a good feed for dairy cows. T government has investigated its m its and dirawbacks with these result It responds to cultivation, and aft two years' growth from old roots w yield as high as 100 tons per acre wi an average of about forty tons. In Texas experiment, steers required rounds of the prickly pear and t' and one-half pounds of cottonse meal to make one pound of ga When planted artificially and cul vated cactus does well in rows eig feet apart with the plants 30 inch apart in the rows. Planting the ro' six feet apart was found to be t, close for convenient cultivation on a count of the rapid growth of the c tus. Dairy cows fed prickly pear singe in the field with a gasoline torch burn off the spines) gave more mi than cows receiving an ordinary z tion, but the milk was lower in bi terfat. Prickly pears are exceeding succulent. They had no influence < the flavor of milk or quality of bt ter. Nor, as has been the belief some dairymen in southern Texas, d the prickly pear injure the keeph quality of milk. The cost of burning the spines c the "pears" was found to be about fifi cents per ton. One and two-thir< gallons of gasoline and 50 minute time were needed to singe one ton. cheaper way is to burn the spines c over a brush fire, but this is practic only when small amounts are fed. HARM DONE BY CATTLE TICK People of Infested Sections Must Gi Together and -Build Vats and Dip All Animals. The department of agriculture he recently issued the following que tions and answers: What do the thousand ticks eat? Blood. Where does the blood come from From the grass, silage, corn, co tonseed meal and other feed your ca tie eat. Oh-then the tick eats my feed? Yes, but he first makes your ca tie do- all the work of turning fee Into blood. But what is cattle blood worth? So much a pound when it goes int beef-so much a quart when it goe to make milk. How much blood do ticks eat? Where they are thick they eat 20 pounds of blood a year from a 1,001 pound steer. How much milk do they take of in blood? A few on a cow reduce the mil yield one and one-half quarts a day lots of them will cut the milk dow over three quarts. Then the ticks are drawing on m bank account? They are certainly keeping you balances in the veal stage. And my neighbors? The tick is sucking $50,000,000 year from the South. What is ,the answer? You and the farmers, business me! bankers and people of the countr must get together and build dippini vats and dip all cattle in an arsenica bath, which kills the ticks. POULTRY NEED A DUST BATI Road Dust, Hard Coal Ashes or Dlr of Any Kind Will Answer Pur pose-Keep It Dry. In every poultry house there shoul be a dust bath, where the hens ma get rid of lice. Poultry lice breath through the pores in their sides, an fine dust fills these pores and suff< cates the vermin. Road dust, har coal ashes, or dry dirt of any kin< will accomplish the purpose. Woe ashes, if damp, may stain the feat] ers and otherwise harm the fowls. Sometimes, if the hens are badly l fested, Persian insect powder may 1 added to the material in the dust bat] A tight box, 3 by 3 feet, and 1 fo< deep, is a good receptacle for tI dust. It should be placed where tI sun can shine on It as many hours a possible, for -then the hens are not e: ercising by scratching for their fee they will spend a good deal of the time in the dust bath, which induc( exercise. The hens will not use the bath fre ly unless the air Is warm, for they di: like to open their feathers and e: pose their bodies to air below 60 d< -grees. SOL ADAPTED TO SORGHUM Good Crops May Be Expected o Sandy Loams-Plant Does Well on Loose Clay Land. No crop perhaps responds better f a good soil than sorghum, yet ther are few which will succeed on so man different types. A rich, loose, we] drained, clay-loam soil is best. Good crops may be expected o sandy loam and on heavy clays whe the latter are well drained. The sorghums will not give profi able returns, however, on clays whic are water-logged or on extreme. sandy soils. Where the soil Is poor< unproductive an application of feri lizer strong In nitrate shoul'd be mac at planting time. Liber:i applications of barnyard m nure will always greatly increase ti yield.
