This stato school offers attrac tive coursos, and any girl at all lt torostcd In hlghor education should obtain ono of thoso bullotins, which tho college will send upon request. According to a letter received by II.' D. Luto of tho Nebraska Farm Bu roau Federation from Gray Silver American Farm Bureau Federation representative at "Washington, ro bates aro now bolng mado on wo-d sales during tho war period, and some 400 growora In Nobraska havo al ready received $4,400 from this source Mr. Silver says that If there aro still some Nobraska wool grow ers who havo not rocolved robato3 duo them, thow should notify him through tho Farm Bureau Federation and ho will take tho matter up with tho department of agriculture, which lias charge of tho work. During tho war, tho governmont did not sot a prlco on wool, hut did require t'nl oxcess profits of wool dealers be re bated to tho growers whon tho wool was finally marketed, ' IV Is possible to poison houso ants, a 'vory troublesome pest about this tlmo of tho year, according to Col logo Agriculture circular HOG ,caUed "Control Methods for Household Pests.f It Is' not advisable, howovor, to ubo poison whoro there aro child ren," and tho use ot cyanide potassi um, corrosive sublimate and other avoided. A Blowacting ant poison Jb mado by dissolving ono pound of sugar In a cup of hot wator to which la added about ono twontlth of an fifth of an ounco of common white araonlto (arsonlto trloxid) previous about half fill' tho glass. Sovornl ly dissolved In a . llttlo hot wator. Small Bfrongua aro soaked In this sirup and placed In Jolly glassos, tho lids of which havo boon punctured with largo holes. Tho spongoa should glasses should bo proparcd In this way and placed whoro tho ants are foraging. "When tho peftitB stop visiting a glass of this poisoned irdrup it should bo moved a short distance, whoro It Will ho visited again. The uuta will carry tho poison to tholr nest and poison ho "queen," nni homo ants, On account ot tho relative high prl'-e of hogs, many farmors havo planned to produco . fall litters of plgB, instead of fattening tholr brood how for market, according to tho Stato Collogo ot Agriculture Tho ra tio botwoon tho prices of hogs and corn makes UiIb a commondablo pruo tlco. With corn at present prlcos, 8 , or, ,9 cent hogs Bhouid return, liberal profit, and farmors who raised a good spring pig crop should consider themselves fortunate. With anothor big corn crop practically assurod tho production of fall plow' lias boon encouraged. While hogs may not hold their prosont high market position, It woujd tuko a nmtorlal drop In prlcoa to innko foodtng unprofitable at pros ont corn values. Men who havo gono thru (Similar periods of doproaBlon in years past say that onco again hogs Itoxp oprno to tho roscuo or wio lurm or!

Heavy roouin afd close conflnoinpnt for two or ihroo wooks odds finish and weight, tWoby Increasing tho price per pound and tho number, ot pounds. Pfif Sat CpUego of Agriculture has found an oxcollcnt fattonlng ration to consist of 2 parts finoly ground cornmeal and 2 parts wheat shorto, moistened with buttermilk or sour milk to a mortar like consistency. All tho birds will eat If fed threo times daily. It is not uncommon for, a good, husky bird weighing 1 to 2 pounds to add three quarters of a pound, or 35 per cent ot Its original Weight, in two or threo weeks. If tho birds aro thrifty, 3 Ms pounds of this food will add a pound of weight. The maximum gain can usually bo ob tained in 15 to 20 days. Tho birds should be marketed as soon as tholr appetite begins to wane. If the mix turo is properly saturated with but termilk or sour milk, no water need bo given. With present feed prices, fattonlng young birds by Intensive feeding should bo profitable. Hon toforo, tho produco men havo boon finishing thorn after obtaining thorn from farmers. There Is no reason why this cannot bo done by the pro ducer Instead of tho middleman. Sovoral weeks ago, when reports cam'o In from ovor tho stato that cer tain mlllors and grain buyers were docking Kanred wheat,, claiming a lower milling quality than Turkey wheat, tho Nobraska Farm Bureau Federation isBitcd a statement deny ing that Kanred wheat is ot poorer milling quality. This statoment lias been vindicated in several points in tho state whoro tests havo been mado, Tho following communication receiv ed by tho Nebraska Farm Bureau Federation from Albert R. Hechn, agricultural extension agent In Daw son county1 says: "It has been report ed In somo paftB of tho county that oiovntor men aro clocking KnnroU wncnt iv cents por iiusnoi uocauso Its supposed Inferior quality, Mr. Wohr, chemist for tho Loxington Mill. & Elovator Company has tosted throo samplos of Kanred wheat and found tho following. Samplo from C T. Whlto, Lexington, which made fifty bushols to tho aero tested 11.9 por cent gluten; a samplo fram Chappell tester 12.00 por cent gluten while n samplo from Genoa tosted 10.05 p?r cent. Mr. Wehr also told mo that it.- r -it rn..-i. ..,i,- tho average of all Turkey rod wheat tosted so far this year was a llttlo ovor 11 por cent gluten. This coin- chits with tho numerous tests made at the Kansas experiment station, Farmers should refuse to take n docic on tholr Kanred wheat because no man can toll Kanred wheat from Turkoy rod wheat after It Is thresh- . 0(1, ( Armed' with ' some very conclusive flguros that tho present high freight , , , , ., . .,... rates aro playing havoc with agrlu:- turnl conditions In Nebraska and oth- Mm THEiBRESIDENT BEAT i I Jus news photograph from Washington lets out the secret whv the Incident went up into the Northeastern states on a vacation.

Luto, sooretary of the Nebraska Farm Bu reau Federation Is now In Washlng tqn to tako part in tho freight rate hearing bofore the intcr-stato com merce commission starting August 1". Mr. Lute' was accompanied by J. W Shorthlll ot the Nobraska Co-opnrn tlvo Grain and . Livestock Company. Mr. Lute has compiled, with tho aid of tho stato railway commission and F. M. Dowccse of the Farm Bureau Fed eration legal department compara tive statements, showing tho freight rato during tho pre-war period and tho present freight rato, as compar ed with tho prlco then and now. But tho most conclusive figures which Mr. Luto will present will bo compara tive figures based on the cost in busholb of transporting a car ot grain to tho terminal markets. A fair ex amplo of what Is to bo shown In this respect will bo ovldonco that It costs moro than a bushel of corn is -worl'i to get It to tho sea board at Galves ton and other points whoro most of Nebraska's corn goes. For In stance, figuring corn at 35 cents per bushel at Wahoo It requires tho vai- uo of 1440 bushols to transport a cju' load containing 1375 bushelB to Gal veston; 1378 bushols to pay tho freight on the 1375 bushels to interior Texas points, and 748 bushols In val ue to pay tho freight on tho car loud to Chicago.
