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

logo Agriculture circular HOG ,caUed
"Control Methods for Household
Pests.f It Is' not advisable, howovor,
to ubo poison whoro there aro child

um, corrosive sublimate and other
avoided. A Blowacting ant poison
Jb mado by dissolving ono pound of

about half fill' tho glass. Sovornl

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

way and placed whoro tho ants are

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

thnv Nohraaka farmers are
learning that it pays to fatten poult
ry5 for tho market, Just as it pays to
finish hogs and cattle. 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

Federation from Albert R. Hechn,

tho present freight rato, as compar

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

respect will bo ovldonco that It costs
moro than a bushel of corn is -worl'i

Nebraska's corn goes. For In
