DAKOTA COUNTY HERALD: DAKOTA CITY, NBBR. HAMMING WOOL (From Farm Bureau . ews.) While the handling of w ol is f special interest to hut feu of our fnnners, a few words to me lew may be of somo interest to nil. Before starting to shear, the hay, Chaff, dirt and hurrs should bo removed as much as possible, as they greatly reduce the vnlue of the fleece. The wise sheepman is the one who is careful to keep his flock where they do not come in contact with these foreign materials. For this section of the state, shear ing should ho done from April 20th to May 15th. Do not wait until the warm weather starts the How of yolk, which, while it adds to the weight of the clip, is discriminated against by the buyer who objects to the grease. The ewes also do not milk so Well when shorn in hot wea ther. Bo sure the wool Is dry be fore starting to shear. The work is best done, by a clip ping machine. They are easier for an amateur to use than hand shears, making closer clips with fewer cuts Into tlio'skln. Hold the clippers close to the skin, as they are easier to operate and second cuts lower the value of the wool. A good hand power machine costs from 12 to $15. i'liis is a machine which . a few neighbors can own co-operatively. The method to pursue can hardly be discussed here, other than to say, draw the skin tight, hold the sheep in such a position that she cannot struggle, and If you have n power machine, follow the outline in the guide which usually accompanies it. While the County Agent has had but little experience in shearing, he Is glad to demonstrate what he knows. Keep the fleece in o single piece. Lay it on a clean table with the sheared side down. Throw out all tags, and other foreign material eas ily removed. Gather in all outer edges and roll so as to keep these to the center of the bunch. Roll in such a way us to expose only the freshly cut wool. Tie the fleece se curely in all directions with wool or paper twine. Use plenty of it as it is cheaper than wool and sells for the same price, besides keeping the clip in n more attractive manner. Never use binder twine for tying wool, as buyers seriously discriminate against this because of the pieces which get Into the wool, and are woven with It but which will not take dye. Sack at once and, unless to be soon sold, store In n reasonably dry place, as excessivo moisture is very detri mental. Rats and mice bother con siderable. When kept for a. consid erable length of time, wool loses considerable in weight. ftii ni t TJnlitna1it were compared us supple- r.n'v.

Tankage has become so hard to get that It often becomes necessary to get somo substitute or do without. With that In mind, wo will give n summary of several experiments in the use of linseed mcnl. At the Indiana station these two concentrates ments an averag uvuragl tankago contains twice as much di gcstlbie protein as linseed only half as much was used as of the latter feed. ' Lot 1 received G lbs. of corn and 0..I lbs. of tankage, on which there was a daily gain of 1.0 lbs, with a to tal gain of 94 lhs. Lots 2, had 5.5 lbs. of corn and 0.0 lbs linseed meal, which made n dally gain of l.G lbs, and a total gain of hi) lbs. With tankage. 381 lbs. of feed were required for ft 100 lb. gain, while witHjthe Unseed meal 391 lbs. were required. While it will gener ally bo found that tankago will give cheaper gains than linseed meal, yet, when it cannot bo secured, good re sults will follow the feeding tf lin seed meal. The value of Unseed meal as (.sup plement to corn was compared with wheat middlings at the Missouri sta tion. Tho pigs In lot 1 were fed 20 lb3. of Unseed meal with each 100 lbs. of corn, and made an averago dally gain of 1.4 lbs. With this ra tion It required 44G lbs. of feed for 100 lbs. of gain. iot 2 received n ration of hair corn and half wheat middlings. , Their dolly gain was 1 lb. and tit took 502 lbs. of tho mixture for 100 lbs. of gain. Lot 3, had a ration of 50 lbs. wheat middlings with 100 lbs. of corn, Their dally go Ins were 1 lb., and 518 lbs. of feed were required for 100 lbs. of gain.

I It is a case where somebody must be trusted. Either ve must trust everybody by permitting them to pay us when they please', or everybody must trust us to furnish, the tele phone service for which they pay in advance. If we did not rc'quire payment .in advance never -would pay. ' some people In such cases the cost of installing the tleephone, the expense of furnishing service and the cost of finally remov ing tljpftelcphone, would have to be met. 'Alsp, if wo permitted "charge accounts," a large number of people would be slow in paying us, and the expense of carrying such accoupts on our books would be-considerable. . If we 'did not require payment of telephone rent in ad vance, it would cost us more for operating expenses, and hence it. would be necessary to charge'lhe ul!rc .;Hui.c Uv telephone service than at present.'

Whero such Is to be foarod, close observaslon should bo made to note the first appearance of tho in sects. When first seen, mix dry, 25 lbs. or course whoot bran and 1 lb, of purls green or white arsenic. Add to tho above mixture Vj gallon of uny cheap molasses, uquuezo out and tjrlnd up (1 lemons, nnd add 3 gallons of water. Thoroughly mix thowholo of this and spread out to dry.
