But a scientific test of salt applications showed that they were virtually if not entirely ineffective. J. Stotchik, of the United States Department of Agriculture, tested a strong brine rubbed over the hair of several animals and found that it did not kill grubs. He Injected brine into the holes In the hide and the grubs survived. And he rubbed brine repeatedly over the lumps in the back of a steer from which the hair had been clipped. His was that the frequent conclusion brushings were more effective In killing grubs than the brine was. As a Its a fact that a cow in a given length of time produces about six times as much protein food material as a fattening steer. A steer in a year produces 548 pounds of dry matter for human food and he is then out of the picture. A dairy cow turning out 18,000 pounds of milk produces 2,200 pounds dry matter for human .food; In addition gives birth to a calf and starts out doing the same trick all over again. To produce this amount of milk our dairy cow had to consume upwards of eight or nine tons of feed in the form of grain, high protein concentrates, hay, silage, and pasture. Here is a factory taking In raw material annually that amounts to ten or eleven times her own weight. Then she turnq ont a product of a highly Intricate formula that weighs again six or eight times her own weight Hoards Dairyman. 1,200-poun- d ' The first geological survey of the Salmon River canyon, Idaho, was made by an expedition sent by the National Geographic society.

Pro- With much of the seed corn intended for next springs planting below standard because of early frosts and late maturity of the crop last fall, poor staads can be avoided only through home testing this winter. Seed corn should germinate at least 90 per cent to assure a good stand. Prospective seed supplies can be tested readily at home by the use of the well known "rag doll tester. This tester is made by placing 100 grains of the chosen seed stock on a dampened cloth, covering the samples with another cloth and rolling the two pieces together loosely. The tester should be kept damp and at a temperature of about 80 degrees. Testing the samples before late winter will give the farmer opportunity to secure additional seed supplies before planting time if the available supply does not measure up to the required germination standards. While it Is too late to Improve the germination qualities of corn that was cured improperly after picking in the fall, frequent inspections of the stored supply will help keep the seed in good condition. This is especially necessary If there is an abrupt change from a cold, dry condition to warm, damp weather. During such a change the moisture condenses and collects on the cold grains of corn and may ruin the seed if allowed to remain until the weather again turns cold. A small stove or other beating equipment In the farm seed room will dry the corn and prevent such damage. A 6 by an explanation.
