ARMINGS OF CLUB MEMBERS Members of Clubs Formed by Depart ment of Agriculture Are Taught the Best and Most Up-to-Datc Pdultry Methods. Prepared by tho United States Depart ment of Agriculture.) Butter and eggs furnish many farm vomen with most of tho money they ipend on themselves and their chll- Iron. Tho amount of butter a woman lolls depends pretty much on the lumber of cows her husbnnd Is wili ng to keep. Tho number of chickens, lowevcr, Is usunlly determined by her skill and by the amount of time she uin devote to caring for them. Club Members Taught. Tho women who belong to clubs or- rnnlzed by tho department of agricul ture and the state colleges are taught me best and most up-to-dnte methods )f cnrlng for poultry. The members ire also helped In organizing egg nnd poultry circles which enable them to )btaln better prices for their products. 'Jno egg circle In Hernando county, tj'lorldn, In three months sold $1,840.70 vorth of poultry nnd eggs. In ono nonth the members shipped 1,080 eggs, flgg circles guarantee their products :o be fresh, nnd there is always' a tood market for guaranteed eggs. Ono of the home demonstration club iicmbers In Prince Edward county, Virginia, cleared $500 last year on A Small Flock of Good Hens Will Sup ply Enough Eggs for the Average Family. pggs and chickens, and sho buys all her feed. She claims 200 hens, if man aged rightly, will ennble n woman to keep up her table and to dress well. Next year her eggs money will bo used to send her boy to college. Two Vital Points. A poultry club In Coffee county, lVnnessec, In 12 months has sold $345 worth of poultry from n flock of 135. rhe members of these clubs are taught Sow to weed out poor layers and how :o select good setting eggs by the poultry specialists. Often the dlffer- mco between success nnd failure for .ho poultryman or womnn lies In knowledge on these two points. KEEPING CLOSELY IN TOUCH Worth While for Farmer to Keep Him self Informed of Market Con ditions Before Selling. (Propared by tho United Stfitoa Depart ment of Agriculture.) Farmers who sell vegetables or other farm produce to consumers or retail stores find that taking pains to Inform themselves on the condition of the market Is very much worth while. Fre quently a telephone Inquiry or refer ence to the local paper will reveal a nemtuid or lack o? demand that seri ously affects tho vnluo of one's product. Tho Information so obtained may sug gest a delay In tnklng the produce to town, nnd give the seller a consider ably better price than he or she would otherwise have obtained. In advertis ing goods for delivery through pnrcel post It Is particularly Important thnt the fanner keep closely In touch with tho demands and tastes of prospective customers. To advertise goods at the wrong time Is to throw away money. To offer them for Gale at the most fa vorable time nt proper prices means getting tho hirgest returns for one's Inhor and Investment. WOODLAND RANGE FOR FOWLS Hn Can Scratch Up Many Slugs and Worms and Catch All Kinds of Bugs and Beetles. A special reason for woodland rnngo for tho hen Is thnt sho can scratch up so many slugs and worms, am! pick bugs and beetles from rotten wood and under bark, and catch nil kinds of Insects In various places. These give protelds which are so nec essary In egg production. DANGER IN USING KEROSENE As Poultry Remedy It Should Never Be Given Internally Oil Will Cause Blistering. The use of kerosono as a poultry romedy Is dangerous. It should never ho given internally, as results tnny prove fntal. It should never ho used on the fowl, as It will causo blistering Of soft parts, DISEASES WILL NOT KILL GRASSHOPPERS Various Fungi and Bacteria Are Natural Enemies of Pest. Insects, Like All Other Animals, Art Susceptible to Maladies and There Are Two or Three Known to Attack Them. (Dy C. It. JONES, Colorado Agricultural College, Fort Collins, Colo.) During every season several re quests are received asking for Infor mation relative to diseases as a meth od of grasshopper control. Grasshop pers, like all other nnlmnls, are sus ceptible to disease and there are two or three known to attack thorn. First, a fungus dlsenso (Empusn grylll Frcs), which has been reported to bo successful In grasshopper con trol, but Inter experiments havo proved It to be of no practlcnl value. It appears that tinder favorable con ditions this disease will appear, with more or less virulence, and sprend with sufllclent rapidity to cause the de struction of n largo number of lo custs. Experiments carried on In co-opera- tlon with tho division of entomology have demonstrated that tho grasshop per Is not susceptible to the organism when brought In contnot with tho or dlnary form of the fungus, such ns Is obtained from tho bodies of dead grasshoppers. In these experiments the grasshoppers were fed with tho fungus, and the pure culture was spread upon their bodies, but In splto of these numerous nttcmpts to Infect them, all remained healthy. Second, a bncterlnl disease (Cocc baclllus acrldlorum D'H.) was report ed by D'llerrello ns having worked successfully In Argentluu. Lnter ex periments with this organism, both In the Philippine islands and in South Afrlcn, have proved It useless. Under artificial conditions, such n9 are found In a laboratory, these dls eases may possibly bo applied with good results, but as yet, In the field, no disease has been found by which a swarm of tho hoppers In n given lo cality can bo contaminated. "NEEDLE-EYE" GATE USEFUL Opening Made in Fence to Permit Farmer or Help to Pass Through and Is Animal Proof. On mnny farms thuie Is occasional need for a gate In some portion of the pasture or barnlot, yet such open ings would bo used so little that It Is hardly worth tho trouble to put up an J 1 bT LL The "Needle-Eye" Gate. ordinary gate. In such enses a "needle eye" gate will make It easy for tho farmer or his help to pass through a fence. Such a gate Is shown In the Il lustration. It merely consists of two posts erected so close together thnt a horse or cow cannot pass between them. These posts are tied together at the top with a long bolt, while at the bottom tiiey are boarded up for a fool or two to keep hogs or calves In. Such n gate as this Is convenient for thf fanner to "duck through" and Is at the same time nnlinnl proof. MUST FEED EACH INDIVIDUAL Idea That Every Hen and Cow Must Be Fed Exactly Same Ration Is Erroneous One. Some folks get tho lden that every hen and every cow must be fed ex- actly the samo ration. That Is all a mistake, for they have different ap petites and different demands. It I? alright to hnve an Ideal average rn tlon to serve as a guide, but It must not be expected to work out Individ ually. WHY FOWLS EAT THEIR EGGS Habit Usually Begins Through Some Accident and Spreads Rapidly Through Flock. Kgg eating usunlly begins through accident by eggs being broken or frozen and generally when It gets Marled In a flock egg entlng bocomen a serious vice, Inasmuch as chickens arc very fond of eggs when they havo learned to ent them, nnd tho habit quickly spreads from fowl to fowl.

If the passage of the Townsend hill depended on tho support from Western states tho measure cnlllng for a na tional system of highways would be como law by an overwhelming major ity, says a representative of n large rubber concern. t Salt Lake City recently governors of 22 slates signed n petition, which will be forwnrded to congress, to lncrense Immensely tho annual appropriation for road-building, to be expended dur ing tho next five years. While tho Townsend bill asks for $425,000,000, their petition calls for n billion dollars. Tho Western gover nors not only Indorse tho bill ns men, but ns governors of their respective states. This action reflects plainly what tho West thinks of tho necessity of highways nnd furnishes an Influ ence which cannot bo overlooked.
