A little salt mixed with the feed and rock salt placed where the cow may reach it is the common practice of handling the salt problem. Hawks, owls, skunks and snakes are the farmers best friends in ro dent control. A milk fever apparatus, steriliz ed and in working order, is kept constantly available on the most successful dairy farms. Plenty of exercise for the cow up to a week or two before calving will go a long way in preventing milk fever. Silage fed directly after milking will seldom taint the milk. Bishop Wisdom is assisting in Mr. Wadsworth's store until Mr, Wadsworth returns. Prevention is cheaper than cure in handling the fly problem. A sin gle female house fly lays about 120 eggs at a time in animal excrement or filth. These eggs hatch and in fon to fourteen days are ready to lay eggs of their own.

Two years ago the hus band and wife started with 20 hens, according to a report received by the United States Department of Agriculture. Their success has been largely due to their unwillingness to feed non-layers. They grow and mix their own feed and cull regu larly. The capacity of their hatch ery has been increased from 480 to 2,280 eggs. On the first of (the year they had on hand an order for 2,000 baby chicks to be delivered in 1924 to two customers, one tak ing 1,500 and one taking 500.
