It is a rather common practice to have cows calve in the spring, yet this is not usually the best time. It is a fact that a calf born in the fall will usually get a better start in life than one born in the spring.—Bulletin 149, Agricultural Experiment Station. Care of the Carpet Sweeper. Do not allow the carpet sweeper to become clogged or dirty. Empty after each using. To clean the brush, re move from the sweeper and cut the entangled hair and strings loose with a pair of scissors. Then comb out with a coarse comb.—Department of Home Economics, College of Agri culture. Sheep Feeders’ Day . A sheep feeders’ day will be held Friday, December 3, at the College of Agriculture r.t which all persons in terested in sheep are invited to at tend. The visitors will have an op portunity of looking over the sheep used in the experiment, which will be closed at that time, and to hear speeches by feeders as well as mem mers of the college faculty. Mouldy Feed Dangerous. Horses are very susceptible to mold poison, and great care should be given to their grain feed as the past summer has been very favorable for the de velopment of molds, especially on oats. Some forms of mold acts quickly and in a similar way to ptomaine poison ing in the human family, while others require a considerable period of feed ing to develop the symptoms. There has already been considerable loss this fall from this trouble.—Department of Animal Pathology, University Farm. The Rev. Irl R. Hicks 1916 Almanac The Rev. Irl R. Hicks 1916 Almanac is by far the finest, largest and best ever printed.

Johns, Elida, Ohio, relates her experience as fol lows: “My little boy is subject to croup. During the past winter I kept a bottle of Chamberlain’s Croup Remedy in the house, and when he began having that croupy cough I would give him one or two doses of it and it would break the attack. I like it better for children than any other cough medicine because children take it willingly, and it is safe and re liable.” Obtainable everywhere. 21-4 Farmers’ Union and County Agents. Evidently the Farmers’ Union feels about the county agents as do those who have demonstration work in charge, for no better statement of the qualifications of agents and the ad ministration of their work as con ducted in Nebraska could be given than the following resolution passed at the National Convention of the Farmers’ Educational Union recently held at Lincoln, Nebraska. “We welcome the farm bureau or demonstration agent sent to us by the United States government. We need the assistance of his scientific knowl edge. But we feel that to be of most help to the farmers he should combine both the scientific and practical side of agriculture. That is, after taking the College course he should make good on the farm by applying to it his scientific knowledge before going out as a teacher of agriculture or farm adviser. ”We further recommend that the question of demonstration 'igent or farm adviser be left to the farmers of each state or county as to whether they shall have such agents. We further recommend that the farmers of each county shall have the power to select the agent for their county.” Offer Poultry Instruction. Courses in poultry husbandry are soon to be offered at the University Farm. The courses of instruction are now being organized, and poultry houses are being built on the farm in cident to the laboratory work. The first course in poultry husbandry will be offered at the regular winter short courses of the College of Agriculture and during the second half of the year’s work of the School of Agri culture. With the establishment of this work, the Extension Service an nounces that it will now be able to schedule dates for poultry lectures and judging demonstrations over the state. Local organizations wishing more information as to how such a meeting may be held are invited to correspond with the Extension Service of the College of Agriculture, Uni versity Farm. Selecting Pullets. November is the time to select the best pullets and breeders for next spring. They should be laying this month. It is the early layers that, when once at it, keeps at it all winter. The pullet that will not lay in moder ate weather certainly cannot be ex pected to do much in January. Select only well-matured pullets. Your house is too small to allow room for runts. They are susceptible to disease and are bound to be star boarders. Strong, healthy stock produces eggs that hatch, and with proper feed, care, and comfortable housing will lay in spite of the cold.—Poultry Husband man, College of Agriculture. ■ PAID ADVERTISING ijjl Paid announcements will ap |§| pear under this head. &i| If you have anything to sell ||9 or wish to buy tell the people of '||J it in this column.
