flvo years has It been possible to
construct tllo dralnngo systems as
cheaply as at tho prosont, says tho
Uriversity of Nebraska Agricultural
College,
Trap stealing interferes with' the
work against predatory animals car
rled on by tho Biological Survey of
tho United States Department of Agri
culture in tho Northwest. Stealing
Government property of any kind is a
serious offense for which a fine of
?5,000 may bo imposed or a sentonco
of flvo years in Jail, or both. There
are at present two offenders in the
Stato of Washington who havo been
arrested on complaint of Biological
Survey hunters, nnd who aro under
bond awaiting trial. Others are under
suspicion aro being watched.
Tho offense of trap-stealing, in ad
dition to the fact that all Government
property must bo respected, is parti
cularly serious, because it may undo
woeks or months of careful work.
Prodatory animals destroy annually
many thousands of dollaia worth ol
valuablo live stock. They aro difficult
to catch and the hunter may have
spent a great deal of time following
tho tracks of a destructive wolf or
coyote and may have his trap set at
tho very best point to intercept his
prey, only to have it stolen. The in
trinsic valuo of tho steel trap or the
pelt of tho animal caught in it is a
cash loss to tho government, and tho
potential loss of future Hvo stock
through sotting a dangerous animal
at liberty or Interfering with Its cap
ture Is impossible to estimate.
Tosts in tho experimental kltchon
of tho United States Department of
Agrlculturo show that tho quality of
flour used, tho retail prlco paid for It,
tho method of buying, whethor in
small quantities or by tho barrel, tho
bread formula" used and tho numbfcr
of loaves made at one tlmo are all
factors affecting tho final cost of
homomado bread.
In caso a batch of flvo loaves for
which materials were bought In small
quantities and which woro baked in
an uninsulated gas oven when gas
cost $1.20 a thousand feet, a single
loaf was found to cost 7 1-3 cents.
Tho recoipo called for shortening,
sugar and compressed yeast. Milk was
not used In the formula tested and
would havo increased tho cost of tho
bread.
A batch of clgth loaves was mado
by a more economical formula and all
materials though bought at retail
prices, were purchased to better ad
vantage. "Strong" flour which gives
a high bread yield was solccieo, and
It was bought by tho barrel, as tho
farm woman would bo likely to buy
It. Dried yeast was used, snortenlng
was omitted, nnd the baking was done
in n kerosene range. Under theso ccn
dtlons tho cost of a 1 lb loaf was
found to be only 4 1-5 cents. The de
tails and figures obtained in these
tests aro available upon application
to the department.

Tho old strawberry bed, if it Is to
produce well next spring, needs re
nowing soon after it has ceased bear
ing. The one year old crowns yield
more and better berries than the
older crowns. Tho object therefore
in renowing is to get an abundance of
new plants this year according to the
University of Nebraska Agricultural
College.
First tho leaves arc mowed and
with tho mulching mnterlal raked off
and burned. This is of great benlfit
In destroying diseases and insects
which are present on the leaves. Then
it is necessary to thin tho plants and
give tho remaining planus good grow
ing conditions to oncourngo the pro
duction of runnors. Tho thinning may
bo accomplished with a hoe, a spade
or a plow. If a hoe is used, a well es
tablished plant Is left every 9 to 12
Inches nnd tho others cut away.
Plants are left closer than they were
originally sot slnco they will not make
such good runner growth tho sec
ond year as they did tho first. The
ground about tho plant should then
bo hoed to enablo tho runnors to
root readily.
Another method of thinning is to
leave a strip of plants from 4 to C
inches wido at tho edge of tho old
matted row and spado or plow under
all tho other plants. If plowing is
resorted to It is necessary to level
tho ridges and pulverize tho soil by
harrowing crosswise
Becauso tjieir room is ;noro doslr
ablo than their company, tho cocker
als during the spring and early sum
mer aro about as popular as tho
appoaranco of, Jack Frost during the
peach-budding season. That Is why
it pays tho avorago poultryman to
start a ccan-up. campaign in his
yards which will result In selling all
tho surplus cockcrals as soon as they
reach marketable size. This dispos
ition of tho male birds will provide
moro commodious qunrters for tho
pullots which aro to bo raised to
maturity. Furthermore, as a general
proposition, tho earlier tho cockcrals
aro marketed, aftor they reach suit
able slzo, tho hlghor pre they will
bring, othor conditions being equal,
on tho other hand, tho longer the
cockeralB aro kopt In the flock, the
smaller will bo tho not profit when
finally sold.
Tho Nebraska Agricultural Collego
says U is doalrcablo that oach poultry
man retain tho choicest, most vigor
ous and best grown cockcrals In his
flock for subsequent breeding iop
oratlons, while it may also pa him
to hold back and grow to a larger
bIzo such birds ns ho desires for use
for tho family, tablo. Tho common
practico to bo recommended Is to sell
tho cockcrals as soon ns they obtain
niarkotnblo size. In sections whore
specinl and fancy markots aro avail
able, cockorals of the lighter breeds,
such ns the Leghorn, may ho sold as
squab broilers when woighlng from
tlireo-quartors of a pound to one
pound apiece. On tho gonoral markets
whero frying chickens aro desired and
with the larger breeds especially, tho
cockorals may bo fnttoned to weigh
from ono nnd one-half to two and
ono-hnlf pounds nplcco before bolng
sold.
