Too Early Feeding Hurts Chicks.
Don't give the baby chick any feed
before 36 to 48 hours after it has
hatched say the O. A. C. poultry au
thorities. No feed is necessary at
this time because the chicks have the
egg yolk in the abdomen to absorb.
It it Is not absorbed In the first few
days it may never be at all. One of
the most frequent causes of death In
the 8 to 10 week old chick is the pre
sence of unabsorbed egg yolk in the
abdomen ,

Farming Plans Pay.
In farming it is as important as in
any other business to have a plan of
operation for the year and then work
to the plan, says the Columbia Farm
Bureau News. A good plan is to di
vide the farm up into plots and indi
cate the number of acres given over
for different crops. Then look over
the market reports tor the past few
years and get an idea of the most pro
fitable crops to grow. It is believed
that the staple crop for the next two
or three years is sure to bring high
prices.

Potato Treatment Best When in Dor
mant Stage.
Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
vallls, March 23, 1920. Potato seed
should be treated Iwith corrosive sub
limate 10 days or two weeks before
planting, while still dormant, accord
ing to M. B. McKay, associate plant
pathologist and potato specialist.
Use four ounces of corrosive sub
limate crystals or powder to every
30 gallons, of water. Diissolve in
about a gallon of hot' water in glass
or a wooden vessel before dilution.
This makes a one to 1000 solution.
Use decreases its strength, to cor
rect which add one half ounce of
chemical for every four bushels of
potatoes treated for tlwo hours. It
a shorter treatment Is used, reduce
the amount of chemical used propor
tionately. Dry the tubers immediately after
treatment. Piling them up wet leads
to injury. Exposure ot the potatoes
to the hot sun produces black heart.
Disinfect the sacks with corrosive
sublimate or formaldehyde and dry
before resacklng.
Corrosive sublimate Is better than
formaldehyde, as it destroys the
spores of two diseases, scab and rhlz
octonla. Rhizoctonia Is a fungous dlease
and one of the most serious tuber
troubles.
A three to four year crop rotation
is necessary for the control of scab
and rhizoctonia, as the oganism is al
ways present in the soil to some extent.
Women Favor Progress.
Jackson county women, working
with the home demonstration agent,
have made 80 dress forms at a saving
of $800 over the commercial cost.
They also helped in making their own
tireless cookers, Iceless refrigerators
and home dryers. Elghty-tiwo ot
them with the help of the agent are
keeping household accounts, thereby
reducing the living expenses. They
have put hot lunches into ten schools,
and have themselves "gone to school"
to the number of 60, where they
learned millinery and dress making.
In all, 674 families have studied
foods and food values.
