WNU Service. that is really observation of of the United of Agriculture. The common yellow blooming and white blooming sweetclovers in the United States both contain a bitter substance known as coumarin. It is believed this substance poisons live stock when they are fed improperly cured clover hay. Two plant explorers of the department, W. J. Morse and P. H. Dor-set- t, seven years ago sent back a specimen of a new sweetclover from the Chihli province of China. It was an annual. Since then 27 lots, all biennials, have been obtained from central Europe, Russia and Mongolia. None of them are bitter. Repeated tests with the new sweetclover have convinced the forage men it does not contain coumarin, reports Dr. E. A. Hollowell, clover specialist of the Bureau of Plant Industry. Preliminary work at the Wisconsin experiment station shows that live stock prefer the new sweetclover to the common varieties. Spoiled hay of the clover has been fed to rabbits and calves without ill effects. The new clover is shorter than American varieties and produces fewer leaves. The forage specialists are trying to cross the nonbitter clover with domestic- strains to lower the coumarin content of the domestic strains. Attempts thus far have been unsuccessful.

General appearance is the best guide for age in hogs and poultry. With horses, cattle and sheep, their age may be told with a fair degree accuracy by their teeth; however, this requires experience and various factors, states a writer in r. the Rural With horses the first pair, upper and lower, of their front teeth are up and in wear at from two and lf to five years of age. The other two pairs of incisors come in. one year later for each pair, so the horse is full mouthed at five years. The cups indicate the age from then on, starting with wear at six years for the lower, center incisors and advancing progressively one year for the others. General appearance, slope and shape of the surface are of importance also. The horses from side to teeth are side, when young; at nine the surface is about round, and then becomes elliptical from front to rear. After eleven years general appearance is the only guide. of New-Yorke- one-ha- egg-shape- d, Help Them Cleanse the Blood of Harmful Body Waste Tour kidneys are constantly filtering waste matter from the blood stream.

They operated on a number of chickens, removed their gizzards, and sewed them up again. Put through feeding tests with normal birds the gizzardless chickens have done well on finely ground feeds, but failed to digest coarse feeds efficiently. A hen operated on in 1934 is still laying eggs and a gizzardless rooster has lived happily since 1933. This is interesting but of no great practical importance. To our mind it would be much better to eliminate the vocal cords from a few old roosters we know. Country Home Magazine. 6,000,000-A- .
