TO PREVENT CRACKED HEELS

Scratches, also called cracked heels

trouble in the majority of cases by
doing two things. Do not allow man

taken to prevent the condition. Do

BENEFICIAL EFFECT OF LIME
Substance Improves Sandy Soils by
..Making Them More Compact and
Retentive of Moisture.
w ' (By b. H. "MITE.)
Nothing in agricultural science or
practice may be mentioned with more
assurance than the beneficial effect of
lime on easily puddled still clay soils.
This is so nearly a matter of common
laowledge, the wonder is that anyone
will worry along with such soils yeai
after year, and even from one genera
tion to another, while the possible in
crease in yield in a single year wil!
often pay for the necessary lime.
Lime may Improve loose sandy soils
by making them more compact and
more retentive of moisture. For this
purpose some form of carbonate oi
lime is usually recommended, and In
much smaller quantities than for clay
soils. Clay soils will stand more lime

ERADICATE HOG LOUSE
Vigorous and Patient Treatment
Is Required.
Blood-Sucking Parasites Cause Much
Irritation of Skin In Dipping
Creollne Is Better Than Lime
and Sulphur,
(By N. S. MAYO.) ,
The hog louse is a common parasitic
pest on swine and one that requires
vigorous and patient treatment to
eradicate. The hog louse is one of
the largest of the lice that attacks
domestic animals. They are readily
seen traveling about on the bristles,
usually on the neck, back of the ears,
moving with a peculiar sliding mo
tion. The eggs or "nits" are small,
white, oval bodies attached to the
bristles.- Hog lice may be found on
almost anv Dart of the animal's body,
but are most common about the neck.
ears and back of the elbow.
These are blood-sucking parasites
and, by biting the hog and abstract
ing blood, they cause a good deal or
Irritation': of the skin. The animal
rubs on hosts and other objects and
the coat looks rough and harsh. The
fjaraalte and eeea are easily found
noon examination. The parasites are
transmitted from one animal to an
other by contact, or by contact with
Infected Redding or quarters.
DlDDlna the animals three or four
times at intervals of ten. days will usu-
flly free them from these parasites.
LIME REQUIRED FOR ONIONS
8oll Is Made Looser and Therefore
More Productive Success At
tributed to Substance.
Much of my success in growing big
onions, many specimens weighing a
pound and a half apiece, I attribute to
a free application of lime to the land
In spring, says the Farm and Fire
side. Likewise, I believe that similar
applications, Just before sowing the
seed of the Portugal onion early in
August have helped me to get a re
markably fine stand and growth.
I have used manures right along,
year after year. The land is rich. The
fine and almost spontaneous growth
of clover on any patch that is left
to Itself for a while would hardly show
that there is any need of lime. Yet
owning perhaps to faulty drainage, the
land often turns up rather soggy, with
close texture. Lime seems to make
it closer, and therefore more productive.
Grass Demonstration.
A new line of work of the depart
ment of agriculture and one that la
very promising was begun last year
in conducting demonstration experi
ments in grass. One hundred demon
stration farms, of one acre each were
established In 20 counties In South
Carolina. Am average yield of 8,146
pounds of cured hay at an average
cost of 123,66, per acre was produced,
and In some. Instances as much as
6,000 or 6.00 w pounds of cured hay an
acre was harvested. These highly sat
isfactory results have stimulated great
Interest In grass growing, especially
In South Carolina. A vigorous grass
campaign; has been started In Nortq
Carolina, Virginia and other states.
It Is expeteted that .5,000 or more al
falfa demonstrations wlll be conducted
this year . In Virginia alone.

provided the sleeping quarters are
thoroughly cleaned and disinfected.
In dipping to kill lice, the coal-tar
dlpB of the creollne type are better
than lime and sulphur. If the hog
wallows are kept well filled with wa
ter, to which some of the creollne
dips are added every ten days, the
iwlne will usually free themselves
from the lice. Another good way of
oombatlng the parasites is to tie
gunnysacks or other coarse cloths
around rubbing posts and keep these
cloths saturated with crude petrole
um. There are many coal-tar "dips" on
the market. They are made from the
products of the distillation of coal tar
and have a variety of trade names.
Creollne is one of these preparations.
They are all dark-colored liquids
with a strong coal-tar odor and when
mixed with water form a milky white
or slightly brownish emulsion. We
have tried several kinds with ex
cellent results. Practically all drug
gists have these dips, but we would
advise using a dip made by a well
known and reliable firm. These dips
should be used at the strength of
one part of the dip to forty or fifty
parts of water. If rain water Is ob
tainable it is preferred to "hard" wa
ter. These dips should be used warm.
There should be a dipping vat on
every hog farm. They may be made
of wood, galvanized iron or cement
They are set In the ground at a con
venient place so that there Is good
surface drainage away from the vat
A good size for a large vat Is ten feet
long on top, eight feet long on the bot
tom, and two feet wide on top. The
end where the hogs enter should be
perpendicular and the other end in
clined, with cleats, so that the hogs
can emerge after swimming through.
The entrance should be by a slide.
Such a tank is very useful whereever
hogs are kept in numbers, as frequent
dipping tends to keep the hogs healthy
and free from parasites.
To Avoid the Runty Pig.
Runty pigs stand a poor show at
the feeding trough with a bunch of
their husky brothers and sisters. Aa
they are crowded out of rlace natu
rally they do not get enough to eat
to keep them growing, and they stay
runty.
A trough arranged with V-shaped
partitions set strongly in the trough
would give the little fellows an equal
show with the big ones, and the
weaker ones would get their share of
food. A handy man can. make such
a trough arrangement in' an hour or
o, and even the growth of his pigs
would more than pay for his trouble.

'My sheep are pure American Meri

I can keep in summer or winter with
the same care and feed with which
one of most any other breed can be
kept, says a writer in an exchange.
My sheep barn is a closed building
with a broad door so that the sheep
can go in and out without crowding
each other. The feeding racks in one
room are on the outside; the other
room has a double rack through the
middle. I give my sheep a large run
in the fall so they go into winter quar
ters in good condition and never leave
them out in heavy rains through the
season.
The breeding ewes are let out every
morning in winter to eat their grain,
which is oats, and to give them exer
cise. I feed them hay three times a
day. Some only feed twice. I only
give them a little at noon time, also
give their pens a litter of oat straw
two or three times a week. I try to
have my sheep shorn before they drop
their lambs so the little fellows have
no trouble to find their first meal. The
ewe that is In good condition has a
good supply of milk and almost al
ways owns her lanib. I never keep
salt by them, but feed it to them once
a week. I have water by them all the
time. I never allow the. jam. to run

be used are fed three-quarters oats
and one-quarter wheat mixed. Tho
young lambs in the fall and winter are
fed twice dally a grain ration of oats
