IT PAYS TO FEED THE
DAIRY HEIFERS WELL.
The extra feed required fo develop
a young dairy heifer to her proper
size -will be paid fo by the "extra
money received for the co-v wIumi
old. Dairy heifers should be fed so
they will grow to as large ale as
possible. When a calf s to be Isold

HOW TO CARE FOR SHEEP
IN BREEDING PERIOD.
Sheep men of experience recognize
that the condition of the ewe flock at
breeding time is very likely to affect
the lamb crop the following spring.
Because of this, the fall care of ewes
and rams is important The method of
preparing the ewes for breeding is
commonly known as "flushing" and
constats of feeding the ewes liberally
to bring about an increase in flesh be(
tore breeding time. As a rule, ewes
are thin when the lambs are weaneo
and they require xtra feed if they
in the best condition for
, was t5 l t Kvxsl white
was ;vun$, but fcuyw i almost
certain to rr that she is naturally
small and that hr onVprtns will be
small. Even if the heifer becomes a
high producer, her calves will not sell
well if she is small.
Plenty of good roughage should be
supplied the growing (heifer af all
times. When a heifer, over six month-3
of age is on good pasture, she does
not need any grain. But at any time
that the grass begins to fail, she
should be supplied with enough good
legume hay nd grain to insure steady
growth. When not on, pasture, feed
all the good legume hay that she can
eat and about one pound of grain for
the first hundred weight of the heifer
and a half pound of grain for each ad
ditional hundred pounds-. That is, if
a heifer weighs 700 pounds she should
be fed four pounds of grain per day
A good grain mixture is equal parts by
weight of bran and ground oats. Corn
can be substituted for either feed, if it
will cheapen the ration.
FARM WOMEN IMPROVE
HOME SEWING METHODS.
Farm women in many sections are
co-operating actively in clothing work
as carried on with the assistance of
state and county extension workers.
In this work local representatives or
leaders, selected by the various com
munities in a county, come together
at some convenient point for training.
Provided with the necessary teaching
helps, these women repeat to organ
ized groups in their own neighborhood
the instruction they have received and
gather up reports on work done. The
success of local leadership ia due not
only to the ability and devotion of
local women, but to the simpla, pras-
tical gasis to which extension workers
have reduced their teaching.
According to reports received by
the United States Department of Ag
riculture, the things that a-e receiving
particular attention are the making
and use of dress forms; alteration of
patterns and making of fitted to mea-
surft fonnHatinn nntl-prn-3' nlnrhirtor
m , .0
construction processes, remodeling,
renovation, garment finishes, use of
machine attachments; clothing hy
giene, including the selection of shoes
and corsets; millinery; and the selec
tion of textile materials and ready
made clothing for quality and design.
A3 a result of the work, farm women
have been enabled to improve their
ability to select materials and to re
model and make garments and other
articles of. clothnig at home.
A succulent pasture is the best me
dium for flushing ewes. Rape is prob
ably better than any other crop for
this purpose. Fall rye is also a good
flushing pasture, but is not apt to be
available quite early enough in the
season. When ewes are first turned
upon fall rape, it is advisable to have
them full of feed to avoid the danger
of bloating. If no pastures are avail
able other than blue grass the ewes
may be increased in flesh by allowing
them whole oats and bran.
The rame should not be overlooked
m the attention given to the flock.
For a short time before, and thruout
the breeding season, the ram should
have about a pound a day of oats and
bran, together with clover or alfalfa
hay, if he is not on good pasture. It is
important that tile ram be in good
flesh, since he must serve a relatively
large number of ewes in a compara
tively short period.
Russian Rocks.
One cup brown sugar, one cup crisco
and butter mixed, two eggs well beat
en, one cup milk, three cups flour, one
teaspoon baking powder, one teaspoon

New Potatoes Fried.

drain. Have ready an iron kettle or
frying pan in which several slices of
bacon have been cooked; into this fat
slice an onion very fine and stir'until
brown. Add the cooked potatoes and
heat for five minutes, shaking them
about so that they will be thoroughly
seasoned. Serve piping hot.
Potato Balls With Codfish.
To a pint of cold mashed potatoes add
one cup of cold creamed codfish, which
haa been broken up into very small
bits; work together with a tablespoon-

WHEAT SHOULD BE
TREATED FOR SMUT.
Careful treatment of the seed which
is sown this fall will not only r&3ult
in a ..larger yield but will add many
dollars to the value of next year's
crop thru increasing the percentage of
clean wheat.
The customary method of avoiding
the stinking smut of wheat is to im
merse the seed in a solution of one
pound or pint of formaldehyde in forty
gallons of water. The seed should be
stirred in the solution and allowed to
remain for about fifteen minutes. Then
spread it out to dry.
The stinking smut, which is the
more common variety'is controlled by
this treatment. However, the loose
smut, which Is evidenced by the pres
ence of black heads in the field at
blossoming time, cannot be checked
by formaldehyde, because the smut ta
within the kernel. The best way to
avoid loose smut is to te sure of a
clean supply of sed. Farmers should
be able to distinguish between the two
kinds of smut, and should bear in mind
that the stinking smut is more com
mon and causes the greater, loss.
Watch Out At Crossings. ..
Statistics show- that 3,000 automo
biles were struck at grade 'crossings
in this country last year. Inhese ac
cidents 2,000 men, women and children
were killed and over 3,000 others in
jured. In dozens of instances whole
families, numbering from four to six,
were wiped out as completely as
though a cyclone had struck them.
A cyclone comes without warning,
from an unexpected quarter. A train
of cars always comes along a perman
ent track, so you know where to find
it And yet, this very day, more than
one driver, somewhere, will heedless
ly drive onto the tracks, without look
ing, or listening, and then a rushing
train will demolish his car. In com
pany with wife and children he will
meet sudden death.
S. P. Makes Special Rates.
Special reduced passenger rates of
one and one-half fare for the round
trip from all points on its lines in
California, Nevade and Arizona to
Portland, Ore., for the International
Livestock Exposition, November 4 to
11, have been announced by the South
ern Pacific Company. The reduced
fares also apply from all stations on
the Pacific Electric, Arizona Eastern)
and San Diego and Arizona railroads
in the states mentioned.
Plant Pansy Seed Now.
Although the pansy is generally
grown from seed sown in the open
ground earty in spring, to have the
plants in full bloom early in the sea
son we must sow during the summer,
and now is a good time.
Among the earliest of our spring
flowering plants, the pansy is always
considered symbolical of the lengthen
ing day and the arrival of spring's
sunshiny weather; and it is while
there is yet a nip in the air that the
pansy is seen in all its glory at the
florist's door. But why pay big prices
for plants when they may be raised
so easily in our own yard?
Late July and August is the usual
season for sowing pansie3 in the open,
by making an early start, good plants
are available for setting out in beds
or border later and allowing them
ample time to make some necessary
root growth previous to very old
weather.
Trade-Mark For Fresh Eggs.
A small trade-mark sticker is now
put on all eggs sold by members of the
North Haledon Leghorn Club In Pas
saic county, N. J. This organization
was formed as a result of a meeting
of poultrymen of the community with
the agricultural extension agent to dis
cuss the development of the poultry
Industry in that section. Each mem
ber pays two cents per bird owned,
8,000 birds being pledged at the first
meeting of the club. All members use
the trade-mark and guarantee eggs
sold under it.
