TOWHEE KILLS BEETI
Towhee'*?Tha Upper Part of Body le
Che
(Prepared by the United State* Department
of Agriculture.)
After snow has disappeared in the
early spring an investigation among
the leaves near a fence or in a thicket
will often disclose the little bird
known as the towhee, chewink, or
ground robin, scratching for his dinner
like a hen. This dinner will consist
of beetles and larvae of insects harmful
to crops, which have been spending
the winter under old leaves.
The good which the towhee does in
this way can hardly be overestimated,
since the death of a single insect at
this time, before it has had an opportunity
to deposit its eggs, is equivalent
to the destruction of a host later
in the year. The towhee has also
been credited with visiting potato
fields and feeding upon the potato
beetle. Its vegetable food consists of
seeds and small wild fruits, but no
complaint on this score is known to
have been made. So far as observation
goes, the bird never touches either
cultivated fruit or grain; in fact, it
is too shy and retiring even to stay
about gardens for any length of time.
The. towhee breeds from the middle
states northward and winters In the
southern half of the country. Naturally
associated with catbird and brown
thrasher, It lives in much the same
places, though It Is more given to
haunting hedgerows along roads and
fences.
"Some Common Birds Useful to the
Farmer" is the title of Farmers' Bulletin
No. 630 of the United States department
of agriculture, which describes
other useful birds. The pamphlet
may be had by applying to the department
Management of the Sow During Pregnancy.
The breeding season for spring litters
has just passed and the time for
the sow to give birth to her young is
at hand.
During pregnancy two facts must be
borne in mind. The first is that the
sow is doing double duty. Not only
is she keeping up her own bodily functions,
but the development of the litter
Is an increasing drain on her system.
Feeding at this time should be liberal,
although it need not be so heavy as
after the pigs are farrowed. The
sow's condition should be "good" neither
too fat nor too lean. A very fat
sow is apt to be clumsy with her pigs,
and some times her pigs are lacking
in vitality. The very thin sow will
either not do justice to her pigs, or
will become a mere wreck herself during
the time she is nursing her litter
and the chances are that both these
things will happen. The necessity of
exercise must not under any circumstances
be overlooked. This may be
provided by a large lot or even driving
the hogs slowly for a short distance
each day.
In the second place, the main demands
upon the sow are those for the
building of new tissue. Therefore, the
kind of feed is important. The nitrogenous
or protein bearing feeds are
needed at this time. These are bran,
oil meal, peas, beans, oats and barley.
The clovers, alfalfa, peas, beans,
vetches etc., are also of much value
to the brood sow. Special emphasis
should be laid on the condition of the
bowels during pregnancy and particularly
at farrowing, the special danger
to be avoided being constipation. The
grain ration should be given as slop
and toward the close of the period of
gestation, oil meal, or a small amount
of flax meal should be Introduced into
the ration.
Corn should not be fed in large
amounts to breeding stock, because it
does not furnish enough bone-andmuscle-forming
constituents to properly
develop the unborn pigs. If possible,
corn should not be fed at all to
any but fattening animals.
Hog Craves Green Feed.
During the winter more care will be
needed to keep the sow in good condition
on account of the absence of pasture.
Not only does the hog's system
crave green feed, but more or less
bulk is demanded. To offset the lack
of green feed, nothing surpasses roots.
These may be sliced or pulped and.
mixed with the grain or may be given
whole as a noon reed, uare must oe
used In feeding roots, as they are laxative
in effect, and if fed in excessive
amounts, may bring about profuse action
of the bowels. Some eastern
farmers recommend the use of silage,
clover, alfalfa, hay, sheaf oats or corn
fodder to supply the bulky requirement
of the ration. Charcoal, ashes,
lime, and salt should be accessible at
all times. These act as a vermifuge
and preventive of disease and meet
the hog's craving for mineral matter
in the feed. During the entire period
care should be taken to keep the system
well toned. The sow should benr
r.ecestomed to being handled and
LES IN EARLY SPBIN6 [
' nt

:?tnut
should look upon her attendant as a
friend.
The brood sows may run together
up to within two weeks of farrowing
time; then it is well to separate them,
placing each sow by herself in a yard
with a small house, which should b&

exercise will not now be necessary.
The feed should be reduced somewhat
and if there is any tendency to constipation,
a slight change of feed may be
necessary.
The farrowing pen should be proTided
with fenders around at leaat
three sides about six to eight inches
from the floor and six to eight inches
from the wall. These should be strong
nough to support the weight of the
sow should she lie on them. They are
constructed to protect the pigs from
being lain upon during the first few
days of their lives. This will go far
to prevent a very fruitful cause of
loss among young pigs for the little
fellows will soon learn to creep under
these fenders when the sow lies down.
COMFORT FOR YOUNG CHICKS
Essential Requirements Are Normal
Heat, Clean Quarters, Fresh Air
and Proper Exercise.
The care of the young chick, from
the'time it is hatched until it ia sold,
is bound up in the one word "com*
fort." The normal amount of heat,
clean quarters, good, fresh air with
plenty of room and exercise?these
are the essential requirements, and
they must be supplied. Good br ding
has more to do with healthy t ticks
and normal growth than good incuba*
tion. Many persons can hatch large
numbers of chicks, but comparatively
few can raise them successfully. The
experienced breeder begins long before
the hatching season to prepare for
ths management of his growing stock,
by the careful selection of breeders.
Labor and feed will avail little or
nothing if the chicks do not inherit a
strong, ^vigorous constitution. This
quality is entirely dependent upon the
age and condition of the breeding
stock. Discouragement and failure are
sure to follow where immature pullets,
diseased hens, or hens of low vitality
are used as breeders. Only
strong, vigorous hens which have
passed their first year as layers should
go into the breeding pens. The eggs
from such hens which havo been
mated to large, healthy cockerels,
should be gathered carefully and kept
in a temperature of not more than 60
degrees, and 50 will not do any barm.
The sooner the eggs are Incubated
after being laid the better. )
CLOVER UPON WINTER WHEAT
Practice Found to Have Number of
Advantage*?Firm, Compact
Seed Bed le Required.
(By R. Q. WEATHER3T0NB.)
Man/ farmers make a practice of
sowing their clover seed upon the
winter wheat early in the spring,
depending upon the alternate freezing
and thawing of the ground to work
the seed down into the crevices.
I have made it a practice to sow my
clover seed on winter wheat in the
spring for a number of years and find
that it has a number of advantages.
Grass and clover seed require a firm,
compact seed bed.
In my own practice I prefer to delay
the sowing of the clover seed until
the ground is dry enough to harrow
and apply the seed with a wheelbarrow
seeder and give the wheat a harrowing
with a light smoothing harrow
with the teeth set well aslant This *
overs the clover seeds and proves
very beneficial to the wheat crop, especially
during the dry seasons.
Either method is preferable to sowing)
seed with spring grain crops.
SEED AN IMPORTANT MATTER
Article of Highest Quality Means Several
Dollars More to the Acre
In Net Returns.
(By LE ROT CADY, Associate Horticulturist.
Minnesota Experiment 8tatlon.)
Good seed is an important matter
with the gardener as well as the farmer.
It never pays to bay cheap seed.
Experiments were carried on a year
or two ago by the Pennsylvania experiment
station with some ten or
more strains of cabbage seed of the
same varieties from different firms.
They found variations of yield from
5 to 10 or 15 tons an sere, according >
to the strain of seed.
