It\ E SHOULD BE DISKED
IN AND THKN TURNED|
it is oemg notice on several farms |
where the farmers are plowing: under
rye at this date* I notice that they
just turn it under without first disking
it. The rye should be disked in
well and then turned. Whore there
are rye stems sticking out of the soil
all.over the field, there will he considerable
trouble in later plowing besides
the great effect it will have
upon the soil moisture.
DO NOT PULL SPROUTS
FROM PEACH TREES
At this particular time some are
asking if they should pull the young
sprouts or "shoots" off of the young
pet ich trees. This certainly should
not be done until fall and then they
should bo cut with sharp knife. By]
pulling them off now there will be a;
greater chance for disease and insects
to sot in and ruin the trees.
HOW TO OBTAIN
INOCCULATION FREE
The Government w'll send to any
or.o who fills out an application card
enough inoceulation for one acre of
any kind of legume. Any one desir

HEW A K E Til R NIP-RA PE SEED
Farmers Cautioned Not to Buy It?
Department Will Examine
Sam pies.
Two hundred thousand pounds of
turnip-rape seed, or enough to sow
approximately 50,000 acres, have been
imported from Argentina and Japan
and are being sold as winter rune.
The peed specialists of the depni'trrrrni
therefore, are again cautioning farmers
to avoid the purchase and seeding
of turnip rape?which is not winter
.....i r? a. e
i?'.|n= turn i? nwt .MiiuiiMf mi uif nirii^v
purposes for which winter rape is
grown.
The seeds of turnip rape are smaller
and have a more deeply pitted surface
than those of winter rape. The
young plants are easily distinguished
by the difference in habit of growth
and the character and color of the
leaves. Winter rape produces a definite
stem, with the leaves occurring
along it at intervals. Turnip rape
does not produce a definite stem, the
leaves all growing in an apparent
whorl at the surface of the ground.
The leaves of winter rape are thick
anct succulent, free from hairs, and
covered with a grayish bloom. The
leaves of turnip rape are thin, hairy,
and bright green, like those of the
garden turnip.
Persons purchasing rape seed may
submit samples to the Seed Laboratory
of the department for determination
as to whether the seed is that of
turnip rape or winter rape. Samples
of both turnip rape and winter rape
seed, for comparison, will be sent on
application to the Seed Laboratory.

INTESTINAL WORMS
CAUSED BY NEGLECT
intestinal Worms m4<> common iu
hogs and arc particularly ' j".vi?v.s vO' ]
growing pigs. In sufficleiitly fed, neg- 1
locted pigs living in dirty pens and i
yurds, fed from filthy troughs, drink i
ing contaminated water, bathing in i
old hog valUws, and rooting and I
sleeping in maunre piles and stack
bottoms soon become infested with
worms; consequently they do not
thrive, but develop into pot-bellied
rickety, profitless runts. Pens should
be kept clean and dry and the manure
frequently removed.
It has been asserted ?by various experienced
feeders of hogs that a mixture
of charcoal, ashes, lime, salt, sul
pliur and copperas kept where the
hogs can cat it will tend to prevent
worm infestation. There is not as
yet positive experimental evidence in
support of the idea tluft such a mixture
will prevent worm infestation,
but the mixture does apear to satisf>
the hog's desire for mineral substances
and probably is of value as a tonic
and appetizer. It may he made up if.
the following proportions:
Charcoal Mixture.
| Charcoal, 1 bushel.
| Hardwood ashes, 1 bushel.
' Salt, 8 pounds.
' Air-slaked lime, 4 pounds.
: Sulphur. 4 pounds.
Pulverized copperas, 2 pounds.
Mix the lime, salt, and sulphur thor!
oughly and then n ix with the chur!
coal and ashes. Dissolve the copperas
in two parts of hot water and sprinkle
i over the whole mass, mixing it thorI
oughly. Keep some of this mixture in
a hox before the ho^s at all times, or
place in a self-feeder,
j Santonin, which was formerly widci
Iv used as a remedy for worms in
I hogs, is practically unobtainable at
i the present time owing to foreign
1 trade conditions.
The following treatment has been
found to be very effective against intestinal
worms in experiments conducted
by the Zoological Division of
the Bureau of Animal Industry: Withhold
all food and water for 24 hours
then give ouch pig from 1 to 4 ounce*
of castor oil to which has been added
oil of A.mrican wormsood as follows:
Small pigs, 2 to *i months old, .'br?
drops; pigs weighing f.O to 100
nounds. ">0 t,> 100 drons: lmwv r?iir?
r ' o-'
1 tcaspoonful.
Knrh j?i?r should ho dosed sepnvatoly
f *, he 'v>st results nvn to ho obtained.
Dangerous to Drench Mors.
Drenching hogs is dangerous. :
they are liable to got the remedy into
the lung's. With ^ullicient assistniv
pigs may be hold, the mouth kept ope
by means of a couple of loops of wir?
or rope, and the medicine given di
rectiv in a tablespoon. By this met1;
od, though it is troublesome one ma>
be certain that each pig gets his prop
er dose. After dosing, the pigs may
be fed and watered. Repeat the treat
nient in 10 days.

ASHES FROM WOOD
ANDBONE MEAL:
The recent groat advance in the
price of potash because of the German
embargo on exportation, and in (
rJie price of acid phosphate because of 1
the increased use of sulphuric acid for
munition purposes, naturally stimulates
interest in all home sources of
fertilizer materials. Such sources can
not be expected to furnish a large
supply, but any materials which are
available should be preserved and
used. In this connection attention
hould be drawn to wood ashes and
bones.
Wood ashes prepared by burning
the wood in the air, contain on an average
of 5 to 10 per cent of potash,
The content of potash is determined
by the species of plant, the soil upon
which grown, and the portion of the
plant burned, whether root, stock, or
branches. The potash is in a highh
soiuable form, and unless the ashei
re protected from the weather will
'each away and be lost. Potash must
however, be in this soiuable form to
'-.v r.v..
vu vaiuc ivi iiu/A . jjni
and wood aslios properly cared for
re, therefore, a valuable home source
>f supply. Farmers who ouse wood for
Tuel should slorc all the ashes produced
in a weather tight place, since
by so doing they may assure themselves
of at least a small supply of a
fertilizer ingredient otherwise almost
unobtainable at present.
Hones are another source of fertilizer
materials which should not be
" vcvloolccd. Ground bone has long
been recognized as a valuable fertilizer
material, and as a source of phosphoric
acid its use antedates that of
ohosphate rock. Raw bones contain
from 20 to 25 per cent of phosphoric
acid and 5 or G per cent of nitrogen.
There are many methods of treating
bones, but probably the simplest and
most satisfactory for tkc small operator
is to reduce them to bone cmal.
fhey should first he thoroughly steam
ed, say in a boiler such as is used for
producing lime sulphur, after which
! they should be dried and ground to

bo secured at small expense, and ma\
be used for other operations on the
farm. The bone meal so produced
may be applied direct, or in combination
with wood ashes. The application
of wood ashes and bone meal to
the soil furnishes the necessary constitutents
of a complete fertilizer?
nitrogen, phosphoric acid, and potash.
A method of composting wood ashes
and whole hones, which is said to
nve originated in Russia, is as follows
:
"in a trench of or 4 feet deep,
rood ashes and whole bones are pilot
i alternate layers, each. about six
inches deep. The lowest and the uppermost
layers are of ashes, and each
layer of ashes is saturated with water
as soon as it has been laid. Upright
stakes are set in the trenches at intervals
of about 3 feet at the begin
ning, and they are withdrawn after
8 or 10 days' time. Into the holes
which the stakes have left enough
water is poured to saturate anew the
ashes. At the end of two months,
when the bones have become considerably
softened, the heap should be
thrown over, moistened, and allowed
to ferment anew. This process should
be repeated at intervals as often as
necessary. Five months and three
turnings should be sufficient."

SUGGESTIONS FOR '

upon one's experience in feeding. The 1
yotmg chicks may be fed any time i
.?fter they are 3G to hours old. 1
whether they are with a hen or in a i
brooder. The first feed may contain >
either hard-boiled eggs, johnnycake, 1
stale bread, pinhead oatmeal, or rolled 1
oats, which feeds or cominations may t
bj UHcd with good results. Feed the- 1
bread crumbs, rolled oats, or johhny- i
cake mixtures, moistened with water. i
five times daily for the first week* )
then gradually substitute for one o. 1
two feeds of the mixture finely crack 1
ed grains of equal parts by weight of i
cracked wheat, finely cracked corn, 1
and pinhead oatmeal or hulled oats, to i
which about 5 per cent of cracked I
peas or broken rice and 2 per cent ot
charcoal, millet, or rape seed may be ,
added. A commercial chick feed may
be substituted if desired. The above i
ration can be fed until the chicks ar:
two weeks old, when they should be
fed on grain and a dry or wet mash
mixture.
After the chicks are 10 days old r
good growing mash, composed of two
parts by weight or bran, two parts
middlings, one part cornmeal, one
part low grade wheat flour or red-dog
flour, and 10 per cent sifted beef
scrap, may be placed in a hopper aiu.
left- hpfovf* Hi pin ut -ill tiiMpo Ac
soon as the chickens will cat the
whole wheat, cracked corn, and othei
grains, the small-size chick feed ca
bo eliminated. t
Fine charcoal, grit, oyster shell, and
clean water should be kept before tin
chickens at all times, and cracked o?
ground bone may be fed where the
chickens are kept in small bare yards
but the latter feed is not necessary
for chickens that have a good range.

DANGERS OF DRAFT.
Drafts feel best when we are hot

dangerous and the result is
Neuralgia, Stiff Neck, Sore Muscles,
or sometimes an attack of Rheumatism.
In such cases apply Sloan's
Liniment. It stimulates circulation
to the sore and painful part. The
blood flows freely and in a short time
the stiffness and pain leaves. Those
| suffering from Neuralgia, or Neuralgic
Headache will find one or two applications
of Sloan's Liniment will
give greatful relief. The. agonizing
pain gives way to a tingling sensation

The German ships now in United
States ports include some of the finest
and largest passenger and freight ves
sels which were formerly employed in
the transatlantic services of the Hambui
g- American Line, the North German
Lloyd and one or two other German
companies. In the list are such
vessels as the Yatterland, of 54,282
tons gross; the President Lincoln,
