Harvest Hands Wanted
Military demands from a limited population have made such a

(From tho. United Stntca Department of
Acrlculturo.)
? In tho practical work of (lis-
2 Infection there are three essen-
T tlnls:
X 1. A preparation of the
T building that will facilitate
X reaching organisms of disease.
X 2. A disinfectant which upon
contact can be depended upon to
destroy such organisms.
3. A method of applying the
disinfectant that will assuro the
most thorough contact with the
X bacteria.
Before beginning the use of disin
fectant It Is essentlnl that certain pre
liminary work bo done In nnd about
tho stable thnt Is to bo treated. Tho
various surfaces, such us ceilings,
walls, partitions, floors, etc., should bo
swept until free from cobwebs nnd
dust. Any accumulation of filth
should be removed by scraping and
scrubbing, using for this purpose a
wire or other stiff brush nnd warm
water with n llbernl quantity of
waRhlng soda. In some cases the
woodwork may have become softened
nnd so porous ns to bo a good me
dium for the absorption of dlseaso
germs. Such woodwork should bo
removed, burned, and replaced with
new mnterlnl.
Remove Refuse Matter.
All refuse, manure, etc., from stable-
nnd bnrnyartl should bo removed
to a place Inaccessible to live stock
nnd, If possible, bo burned or thor
oughly mixed with a solution of chlor
ide of lime in the proportion of six
ounces to one gnllon of water. If
the floor Is of earth, It will doubt
less have become stained with urine
and contaminated to n depth of sev
eral Inches. In such cases four Inches
or more of the surface soil should
be removed nnd treated ns suggested
above for refuse nnd manure.
Having made ready the field opera
atlon, the next consideration should
be the selection and preparation of
tho disinfectant. The fact must not
bo overlooked that many agents used
for the destruction of bacteria arc
likewise poisonous to animals nnd
man. In fact, some drugs, although
powerful ns germicides, nro so poi
sonous as to preclude their general
use In tho work of disinfection.
Among- such, ns previously stated, is
bichloride of mercury, which pos
sesses tho power of destroying not
only bacteria, but spores as well. It
is therefore essential In deciding upon
nn agent to select one having a known
germicidal strength, properties of sol
ubility, and nt the same time possess
ing a reasonable degree of safety to
unlmnls and man.
Method of Application.
The efllcleucy nfid economy of the
work will depend In n great mensuro
upon the method of applying the dis
infectant. Economy requires that the
disinfecting solution bo applied rap
Idly i elllclency requires that It bo
not only spread In such manner as
to cover the entire surface requiring

lutlon Into nil cracks and crevices.
Where a very limited surfnee is to
be treated, as, for example, one stall,
it may be possible to apply the disin
fectant In a satisfactory manner by
menns of n whitewash hrush. In all
enses, however, the best method of
applying the disinfectant and the Umo
wash Is by means of 'a strong spray
pump.
Tho enUre interior of the stable
should bo. saturated with tho disin
fectant Special attention should bo
given to the feeding troughs and
drains. After tho disinfectant has
dried, the surface may bo sprayed
with lime wash, provided this hns
not been combined with tho disinfect
ant' ns previously described. When
tho work has been completed It will
be advisable to open all doors and
windows of the building for tho ad-
I mission of air and light.
Labor-Saving Methods of Harvesting
Corn.
Usually most satisfactory results are
obtained with a three-horse team, nnd
sometimes four horses are necessary
when tho corn Is heavy or the ground
hilly. In ordlnnry yields, ono mnn op
eratlng the binder will keep two men
busy gathering the bundles nnd shock
lng them. These three men cutting
and shocklilg by hnod would scarcely
cover more than four acres in a day
and It would be necessnry to work
much harder than when the corn bind
er Is used, thus tho machine requiring
less Inborlous work takes from one-
hnlf to two-thirds as long to cut a glv
en acreage.
When tho binder Is used for cut
ting corn for silage tho lnbor of at
least two men will bo saved us com
pared to cutting by hand. Ono binder
will usunlly bo able to cut the corn
ns fnst as a 12 or 14-lnch sllnge cutter
can handle. It. A great denl of tlmo
Is saved In unloading nt tho cutter.
because the corn Is In bundles, which
enables a further reduction in the size
of the harvesting crew.
A bundle elevator attachment to the
corn binder saves further labor. By
this attachment the bundles of corn
nre delivered directly to a wagon drlv
en by the side of the hinder. This
method eliminates another man In the
crew. When tho bundles are dropped
from the binder to tho ground two men
are generally required to hand them
up ns fast as ono mnn can arrange
them on tho wagon. When an clevn
tor nttnehmont Is used one man usual
ly arranges the bundles on the wagon
as they are delivered from the binder
and another man or boy drives tho
team. .
The platform harvester Is the most
satisfactory machine when tho acre
ago in corn is not sufficiently lnrco
justify n binder. This machine eon
slsts of nn A-shnped plntform on low
wneels two sides of which are enuln
ped with knives. It is drawn by ono
norse, operated by two men, nnd cuts
two rows nt a time. The men gather
the stalks us they ore cut, and when
me shock is reached the horse
stopped nnd tho men carry the cut corn
10 tno shock. In cutt nc corn with
platform harvester for silage much
timo can he saved and ofllclent work
done if n wncon Is driven n1nni?Rlrir
the harvester and tho corn placed on
It directly as It Is cut. By this method
approximately flvo ocres of corn yield
ing 8 tons of silage per aero consti
tutes a fair day's work. Two men
with n platform harvester and one
horso will cut nnd shock nt least ns
much corn In n day as threo men cut
ting by hand. This mnchlno thus tnk
lng the place of one hired helper will
vey nearly pay for Itself In cutting -10
acres.

Help That Weak Back!
IN THESE trying times the utmost effort of every mnn and
every woman is necessary. But the man or woman vho
is handicapped with weak kidneys finds a good day's work
impossible, nnd any work a burden. Lame, achy back; daily
headaches, dizzy spells, urinary irregularities nnd that "oil-worn-out"
feeling ore constant sources of distress nnd ohould
have prompt attention.
Dont delay! Neglected kidney weakness too often leads
to gravel, dropsy or Bright's disease. Begin using Donn's
Kidney Pills today. They have brought thousands of kidney
sufferers back to health. They should help you.

Packers' Costs
and Profits
How much do you think
it costs
1. To dress beef, care hides, end
prepare all the nrtmeroas by
products? 2. To cool the meat for two or
three days before shipment?
3. To freight it to all parts off
the country in special refrige
rator cars, iced daily ?
4. To carry it in hundreds of
branch houses, each with its
refrigerating plant?
5. And to deliver it to the retailer
sweet and fresh in less
than two weeks after dressing?
Swift & Company did all this
for you in 1917 at an expense of
less than 2lz cents per pound of
beef sold, mcludihg an average
profit of Va of a cent a pound.
Figure for yourself how little
effect this cost and profit had
on prices you paid for beefsteak.
