The project will be repeated this year in Ohio for the ninth time, and after this year will be abandoned so far as the adult hog producers of the state are concerned, it is announced by J. W. Wulchet, exten-- : sion specialist in swine production for the Ohio State university. We feel that the club, which has been one of the most popular honor production clubs sponsored by the extension service, has now served Its purpose and would soon outlive its usefulness if continued, says Wuichet. It has Interested and guided hundreds of farmers in adopting feeding, breeding, and management practices which produce marketable hogs of high quality at a time when they will bring the most money. The principles which the growers have been applying in producing single are the principles which they must follow in managing their entire herds in order to bring the greatest profits. Hereafter we are going to emphasize a pork production club which will involve the application of what has been learned in the Ton Litter club, to the entire herd. This project has already had one successful year in Ohio. . ton-litte- i ton-litt- rs er ton-litt- , Ton-Litt- ton-litte- Fall Is Best Time to Buy Cattle and Sheep Cattle and sheep can usually be purchased to better advantage during September, October and November than at any other time of the year and farmers who contemplate buying beef cows or ewes for breeding stock should take care of their needs during the next three months, according to W. H. Peters, animal husbandry chief. University farm, St. Paul. When possible, Mr. Peters says, it Is desirable to purchase breeding animals for shipment direct from the ranch or farm on which they have been produced to the farm of the purchaser. This, however, is often impractical because of the difficulty and expense involved in locating and purchasing animals that way. , By using careful judgment and taking the necessary sanitary precautions, highly satisfactory purchases of breeding animals can be made at the large central markets, especially during the fall season when a wide range for selection is usually available. Sheep and beef cattle are both In a very strong position at present and prices are moderately high. This makes it especially important that the buyer understand his business,' says Mr. .Peters. If he does not, he would be wise to employ the services of some reliable person who knows market grades and values and who understands market practices. The old adage that well bought Is well sold is still one of the big factors in determining profits from live stock and has a particularly pertinent application to the purchase of feeder cattle and feeder lambs. The ideal conditions under which to raise a flock of growing chicks is to allow them free range on a field of alfalfa. , Not every poultryman can do this, says C. F. Parrish, extension poultry-man- ,' at the North Carolina State colWhere It is impossible, the lege. poultryman should see to it that his chicks get some green feed each day. Green, feed is essential. Where the chicks are confined to small yards, it is a good plan to supply one to one and a half pounds of lawn clippings, oats, alfalfa, rape, rye, or short pieces of any kind of green grain crop to each 100 cnicks, while they are from eight to ten weeks old. The amount must be increased as the chicks get older. One hundred hens usually require from six to seven pounds of green feed a day. Next years profits will depend on how well the growing stock is developed. One of the strict requirements for a profitable poultry business is to furnish a sufficient quantity of the right kind of feed to make flesh, muscle and bone and to supply energy for the growing chicks. In addition, they need clean, dry quarters, fresh water and shade. The green feed is also important, though it Is oftentimes overlooked, says Mr. Parris. He then suggests that the brooder house be kept clean and all droppings removed at least twice each week. Mr. Parrish says that the poultry business of North Carolina is growing rapidly. About 90 per cent of the farms in the state now have poultry on them, and the new interest in blood testing is assuring growers of healthy chicks from the hatcheries and breeding flocks. More than 150,000 hens will be blood tested next' fall and winter, according to applications which have been received for this work during the past few weeks. All of this shows a more intelligent interest in the poultry business, says Mr. Parrish. Early Roosting Should Be Taught to Chicks Early roosting should be encouraged. The sooner the chicks are on the roost the sooner the poultrymans troubles are over. Roosts should be placed on the two sides and rear of the brooder house. The roost elevated one foot from the floor. The roosts may be hinged at the rear of the house. Two by two inch material is very satisfactory providing the edges are rounded off. The roosts should be 10 Inches f inch mesh chick netapart. ting should be placed underneath the roosts in order to force the chicks up on the roosts and to prevent them from crowding in thi corners under the roosts. One-hal- Table Scraps Are Good for All Poultry Flocks Table scraps and waste food products make more or less of a balanced ration for a small flock of farm hens when combined with scratch grain. But be careful about feeding the hens any, spoiled canned goods or moldy feed. Such materials may cause some of the losses that are blamed on disease. And it pays test to use a lading mash even if the hens have plenty of table scraps. They w ill usually eat the scraps first but the balanced mash will be there when the other materials are lacking. Hens seem to have few digestible troubles when they have the dry mash containing bran and easily digested ground grains.
