Which to Store Feed. (By C. K. JOHNS) (Prepared by the United Htatea Department of Agriculture.) Some important points to observe In the making and feeding of silage are discussed by live stock specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture in a revised edition of Farmers Bulletin No. 578-F- , The Making and Feeding of Silage, which is now ready for distribution to Interested persons. Silage, the authors of the bulletin say, "Is the best and cheapest form in which to store succulent feed. Many forage crops can be made Into silage; but corn, where It can be grown successfully, makes the best silage. "Silage Is suited for feeding to all live stock. Dairy cows, not on good pasture, need it perhaps more than other classes of animals, because the succulence It supplies is helpful in the production of large quantities of milk. It is a cheap nnd economical feed for beef cattle, from breeding cow te fattening steer. Sheep like it and it is well suited to their needs. Even horses and mules may lie fed limited quantities of good silage with good results. A method of making silage, known as the ltonning method, has come into use in the last few years and is considered the easiest known method of making silage. The standing corn is harvested and cut into proper lengths for the silo by a machine drawn and operated by a tractor. The cut corn Is delivered to a wagon box drawn alongside. It is then hauled to the silo nnd pushed off into a blower which elevates It into the silo. When a pit silo is used the work of filling is still less. Making silage by the Ronning method requires approximately the same size crew as when a harvester and bundie elevator is used, but the advantage lies In saving the labor of handling the heavy bundles. A copy of the bulletin may be obtained by writing to the United States Department of Agriculture, Washing- Scene in Mexico City ns the people were gladly thronging to the churches that have been reopened for services following the conclusion of a peace agreement between the government and the Roman Catholic church.

I.iimb, Extension Veterinarian, Kansas State Agricultural College.) Crude petroleum will turn itself into a money maker when used as a destroyer of mange of swi.ie. from Richmond The three most practical methods of destroying mange are hand applications, spraying and dipping. Hand applications may.be satisfactorily provided if only a few hogs are treated. The hogs are confined nnd applications made with a brush or Petroleum should be rubbed doth. over the entire hog, including inside the ears. Spraying, if carefully carried out, will destroy mange. The hogs should be confined in a small pen, bedded with clean straw. A spray pump or sprinkling can nmy he used. The hogs ears should be lifted so that spray material will coat the lower side. They should ho left in the pen for nn hour to become well saturated by contact. Dipping is the most effective wny of applying material to hogs for controlling mange. Concrete or galvanized iron dipping vats are more or less permanent and not prohibitive in expense for the largo hog raisers. Swine should lie dipped at least twice, 12 to 14 days apart, and old beds burned. The house nnd sleeping quarters should lie thoroughly cleaned and disinfected. TO CROSS ATLANTIC David G.

Like Lindy lie will make the trip alone, and he lias no doubt that he will reach the other side. In It has been found by an airplane manufacturing firm in St. Louis that dressmakers are more adept than men at covering tfce wings and fuselages of planes. Two of the girls thus employed are shown above at their work. Use of Self-Feede- rs Is Most Satisfactory is the most The use of satisfactory system of growing hogs we have found. With band feeding so many times In the busy season, nnd that lasts all smiim-- r on most farms, a little neglect In chores checks up the desired growth. Living in a good, clean, legume pasture with ers for corn and protein feeds nnd nn opportunity to got at some minerals, the pigs are at fault If they do not Last year corn was so make good. scarce In our neighborhood that we ran the pigs through with a little less than they would have liked. The pigs were sipwed up hv it, too, hut rise in the hog with nn market the financial returns were not so disappointing. Related pigs do not always meet that kind of n market reception. Tie general trend lias always been the other way. Down on the Farm With Marion Talley scif-feed- !

One herd of eight cows that was fed an average of three pounds of grain per day during June and July last year produced .1,550 pounds more milk and ISO pounds more fat than the same cows produced during the corresponding two mouths the year before, when no groin was fed to supplement the pasture. Valuing the grain mixture at $00 a ton, the extra feed cost $22.50. If we assume that the 180 pounds of butterfnt lmd a value of 40 cents a pound, the in. crease in the gross income was The net profit from grain feeding during those two months, therefore, amounted to $52, or $3.25 per cow per month. As a rule the better the cows the larger will he the returns from grain feeding on pasture. ; i I Consult your dealer CHAMPION SPARK PLUGS True politeness requires more attention to tlie feelings of others thaa to mere font).

Tlie census figures In 1920 show that there were 23,750,000 dairy cows in this country and they produced a total of 89.500,000,000 pounds of milk. In 1920, the total number of cows In this country hud dropped to 22, 100.000, but they produced a total of 120.750.000.- 000 pounds of milk. Thats 7 per cent fewer cows, and they gave 34.7 per cent more milk, quite n remarkable change In a few years time. This change Is a tribute to tlie value of educational endeavor promoting better breeding, better feeding, and better care of dairy cows, but especially better feeding. Increase in Number of Cows Tested in Country Cow testing associations In tlie United Slates showed a remarkable growth during 1928. There was a 15 per cent increase in associations. with a total of 405,801 cows under test. California leads in tlie total number of cows under test and also in the percentage of cows which are being tested. There are four states that beat California in the number of herds under test, ns most of her herds were large. Wisconsin stands second in total number of cows under test and first in number of herds Minnesota ranks third in number of cows and Iowa fourth. Iowa now lias 2.7 per cent of her dairy cattle undei test.

Of the various sources of contamIs subject, the dairy utensils have been definitely established as one of the most serious, capable of contributing a high percentage of the bacteria found lu milk. Consequently the sterilization of cans, pails or other containers cannot be neglected if milk containing few bacteria is to be produced. Thorough cleaning is essential, but In itself Is Insufficient. Steps must be taken to destroy as niauy as possible of tlie bacteria still remaining if the keeping quality of milk Is to be Improved. For sterilizing, steam uuder pressure, the most satisfactory agent, is seldom available. In its absence, a sufficient quantity of boiling water gives good results. Fails, strainers, etc., after washing are scalded by pouring a pint of boiling water ovei the entire inner surface; cans ore best treated by pouring in a quart of boiling water, replacing the lid, and rolling the can along the floor to ensure thorough scalding of the Inner surface. As the temperature of the water drops over 50 degrees Fahrenheit during tills operation a fresh quantity must be provided for each utensil. Because of the saving in time and fuel, chlorine solutions are being used in some districts to replace the scalding treatment, and where used intelligently have equal or superior sterilizCans and pails are ing efficiency. carefully rinsed with chlorine solution as in the scalding treatment, or immersed for one minute in a tank containing the solution.

Of next importance, then, is how to treat it when it comes. Dr. Caldwell always was in favor of getting as close to nature as possible, hence his remedy for constipation is & mild vegetable compound. It con not harm the most delicate system and is not habit forming. The Doctor never did approve of dras- tic physics and purges. He did not believe they were good for human beings to put into their system.
