(iORMit GOKOillOiS M B Average Farm e r Feeds Very Little Animal Protein JFeed of Any' Kind —Milk Products or Fich Also Are Favored. Hens given meat, fi.sh, or milk prod ucts in tlioir diet will lay from oS to fid p er cent more eggs than tho.«;e which have only grain food and w h at bugs and woruLS they can pick up on free range, recent experiments made by the United States departm e n t of agri culture show. T h e birds used in the experim ents were given condition.s as nearly like those on a normal farm as possible. The e-vperiraents were repeated under different conditions and in different years to avoid, as far as possible, any error due to the varied characteristics of the birds. Little Animal Protein Feed. The average farm e r feeds very lit tle meat, fish, or anim al protein feed of any kind to his poultry, and con sequently gets few eggs during the late fal 4 and w inter when eggs are selling a t the highest prices. In the experim ents conducted on the governm ent poultry farm , pens of pullet^ on free range were fed a mash of corn meal, bran, and middlings and a scratch mixture^.of wheat, oats, and corn,, This is greater variety of grains than is used by many farm e rs. In ad dition the birds had absolutely free range on land w h ere bugs, gi’een feed, and worms w ere plentiful. Other pens w ere given tlie same ration, with 1 pound of commercial m e a t scrap added to every 4 pounds of mash. R esults Obtained. The pullets w ithout the m e at scrap laid only 90 eggs aj>iece (which is more eggs per hen than the average Fowls Given Free Ra^ige. farm flock lays), while those receiv ing m e at scrap averaged from 125 to 150 eggs apiece. M eat scrap is not produced on m o st farm s, and has to be bought a t a higher price than grain. I t produces eggs, though, several cents a dozen cheaper than, w h ere no meat scrap is used. Milk products or fish give as good results as meat In increasing egg production. REDUCE COST IN MARKETING Price Margin Between Producer land Consumer Can Be Cut by Work-^ ing Together. A. D. Wilson, chief of the agricul tural extension division of the Uni versity of Minnesota, holds that the price margin between the producer and consumer can be cut down if the producers in every community will work together suiflciently to produce a standard product of good quality and in quantities large enough to let it be marketed in car lots. “Improve ment in marketing,” he says, “must be'along the line of reducing the labor and expense required in getting the products from the farm to the con sumer. One of the things which tends to reduce this cost is to have produced in a community a\ large quantity of a uniform product.” The marketing of co-operative creamery butter is cited by Mr. Wilson as an illum inating illustration of the truth of his prem ises. GEESE ARE QUITE PECULIAR Fowls Are Partial to Their Mates and It Is Not Best to Separate Them Each Year. Unlike other farm poultry, geese are partial to their mates and it is best not to try to separate them each year. An old gander is not a good breeder and he ought not to be kept more than three or four years. On tne otner hand, the older females lay more eggs than do young ones and as a rule the eggs are more fertile. Females may be kept for eight or ten years or erven longer.

(Prepared by the United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) How a ' Virginia farm e r m a rketed pigs heavier and more profitable than he had raised in the past is told in a circular. “B e tter Sires for Virginia,” recently issued by the extension divi sion of the Virginia A g ricultural and Mechanical college. ‘ « “I u.« 5 ed to 'r a i s e scrub pigs,” the farm e r declares. “I didn’t think there w as much money in the hog business because I didn’t make much. Since using pnrebreds sires I have changed my mind, As a result of using pure- hreds sires piy nlss wpisrh^d 215 nonUrlcs Purebred Poland Chinas. last fall, when the average scrub pig would hardly weigh 150 pounds. Con sequently my pigs went to market ear ly, while prices were high, while the man with scrub pigs had to -keep his longer and feed them high-priced grain while prices kept going down.” ^ The account Is accompanied by a picture of purebred boars which are described a.s having “a good father, a good m o ther, and no poor rela tions.” IMMUTABLE BREEDIN3 LAWS Use of Good Sires, Care, and M anage m e n t Are Essential in Build ing Up Herds. T h e ra is no disputing the ai^solute fact that the laws of bleeding are jff'st as immutiible as they have ever been. The use of good sires is necessary in breeding up good herds and this alone will not d o ; good care, feed and man agem ent m u st be given calves, heifers and cows and w h ere these rules are fol lowed, men usually succeed and pros per w ith greater certainty than though they depend too largely upon the co operation of the butcher. CONTROL OF WEEDS T n CORN Good Harrowing a t Proper Time Most Effective W a y of Checking Growth of Plants. . A good harrow ing a t the proper tim e is often t h e cheapest and m o st efficient w ay of controlling weeds dur ing the first stages of growth of the corn. The harrow or the weeder also can be used to advantage in breaking up a crust caused by a heavy, dashing rain.
