The oat crop in this section is above an average but wheat owing to the unfavorable weather conditions this spring will hardly yield more than halt a crop. Early oats are already being harvested.

May 15.?For lice on young chickens, young turkeys, and in fact all newly hatched fowls the application of sodium fluoride in the dust form is recommended, says, N. R. Mehrhof, Extension Poultry Specialist, who advises that the "pinch method" has been found to be entirely effective against all lice ancl to have the advantage of economy of time and material. In this method the material is placed on a table in an open vessel, and the fowl is held by the legs or wings with one hand, while with the other hand a small pinch on the head, one on the neck, two on the back, one on the breast, one below the vent, one on the tail, one on each thigh, and one j scattered on the undersideN of each wing when spread. Each pinch can be distributed somewhat by pushing the thumb and fingers among the. feathers as the material is released.! It is advisable when dusting to hold j the chicken over a large shallow pan, j as in this way the small amount of material ordinarlv lost is recovered. Sodium fluoride can be obtaned in two forms, known as commercial and chemically pure. Both of these are in a drv state, the former being a dry powder and the latter consisting of small crystals somewhat lumpy. While the chemically pure material is effective, it is not as easly applied by the dusting method as the more finely * They are Good! t Buy this Cigarett FaithfulJ The' uine The I Gille m * yw\!

CAPON IZIX<; COCKKKKI.S PAYS Clentson College, May 1">.?That i pays to caponize is now recognized experienced poultrymen, according t( N. R. Mehrhof, Extension Poultry Specialist, who is recommending thif practice' A capon is a male bin from which the reproductive organ: have been removed at an early age and the advantage of caponizing are larger and heavier fowls at killing time; sweater meat of finer flavor; a much higher selling price: a lowei cost, due to ease of fattening: a mon docile disposition; and better endur ance or dose conuneniein. During the same period of growth it is possible to produce capons which will weigh 50 percent more than the> would normally weigh. A cockerel of the American breeds at S months of age weighs from 4 to 5 pounds. The same bird if caponized when weighing about 1 1-2 to 2 1-2 pounds can easily be made to weigh 6 to S pounds at S months, and at the saint time the flesh of the capon will be more tender, of finer texture, and of superior flavors and will bring a higher price. Caponizing modifies the disposition. The brds become more quiet and gentle, endure close confinement quite well, and lose inclination to fly ovei obstacles, or to quarrel and fight one another. The cost of feeding the capon will have been less than that foi the cockrel because of the fact thai more of the feed consumed is stored up in the body as flesh, and less converted into energy.
