J | OF INTEREST TO FA RMERS | WINTER KILLING OF WHEAT While, as every grower of winter wheat knows, there is no way of absolutely insuring this crop against winterkilling, there are seme things that can be done to at leae: partial ly protect the crop against ioss from this source. The matter of first im portance is tire variety. The Tur key wheats and their derivatives are comparatively hardy. Icwa 4i0, Kanred, Iobred and loturk are all hardy varieties for Iowa conditions. The variety having been deter mined. the matter of next Import ance is seed bed preparation. Wheat requires a finely pulverize d seed bed. fine on top yet one that is well compacted below the surface. If wheat follows small grain and the ground has been plowed, 'ne disk should be freely used and be fol lowed by a corrugated roller, if pos sible. The more compact the seed bed, provided the top surface is line and mellow, the more quickly will the seed sprout. Rapid growth at this time means a more vigorous aland before coid weather begins. It j is also generally recognizt d that there is leas danger of winter killing when the ground has been well compacted. Then again, the amount of plant food In the soil Is considerable im portance. When the soil is well stocked with plant food, growth will be rapid from the start, thus insur ing strong, sturdy plants to go through the winter. Keeping the soil well stocked with organic mat ter, as well as with phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, is important. Where lime is needtd it snould bo supplied so tliat legumes will do their utmost in supplying organic matter. The latter not only aids the soil to hold more water, but it also furnishes food for the soil bac teria which, in turn, aid in convert ing insoluable plant food in the soil into solnable food. While early seeding of wheat Is advantageous, In sections where the Hessian fly did some damage this year, seeding should by all means be deferred till after the fly free date. If this i3 not done the spring brood of the fly is practically certain of taking a heavy toll from the crop next year. Observe the fly free date wherever necessary. CLEAN SEED, SAVE YIELD Weeds are the most dangerous enemies of crop yields, year in and year out. Yet, year after year, thous ands of acres of valuable small crops are planted with uncleaned, bin run seed. Ttre resultant loss in yield, grade and quality of grain to tals many millions of dollars an nually. No farm operator would de liberately sow weed seed, but this is exactly what happens when bin run seed is planted. There can be a large percentage of weed seed In grain without it being especially no ticeable. The same grain run through a fanning mill or recleaner, however, will yield a surprisingly targe amount of weed seed, cracked and light kernels, and other imper fect seed grains. One of the most valuable items of farm equipment, from the standpoint cf the cash re turn on the investment, is a good fanning mill or rocleane/. When equipped with the proper screens and operated at the correct speed, a fanning mill is capable cf doing a surprisingly good job of cleaning and grading. There are a number of different types of recleaners which may be used. Some are operated by air blast alcne, some by sieves and screens and others bv a combina tion of all three. Another type, The disk separator, has different size pockets or cells in the sides of re volving disks. This type is especial ly efficient in regions where there is a high dockage content in tire grain and where the dockage is practically the lame diameter as the seed grain, making screen sepa ration difficult. ... -* a — ...... - BREAKING UP BROODY HENS In this age of serialization there Ls very little need for a broody hen on the average farm. Her specialized job is to lay eggs, and eggs and more eggs. The job of hatching these eggs and of caring for the baby chicks thus hatched has been turned over to the incubators and brooders. As a consequence, when biddy takes a notion to revert to type and try hatching a few of her own eggs most poultry men take a determined stand against such ac tivity. Many times the problem of breaking up a broody hen is not so simple as just deciding that she is | not to be allowed to sit, however. In l breaking up broodv hens it is inad visable to try to starve the hen into abandoning ner mothering instincts. Neither i3 it advisable to duck her head in water as a cure. The best step to take is to shut her in a crate that is placed in a comfortably warm, well ventilated building. This | crate should have a slat bottom i and should not be provided with Lit ter or any material which might be scratched into a pile for a nest. Once the hen has been placed in this sort of a crate do not forget to feed her. If a broody hen is fed a i well balanced ration and fed plenty j of it she is more Likely to improve j physically and to store up vitality ] for another laying period, which she would not do if improperly managed. Another point to bear in j mind is that it is much easier to break up a broody hen if the at tempt Is made when she first shows signs of broodiness than !t is af er she has been sitting for two or three clays. TREAT CAP>B\GE SEED The dreaded black-leg disease of cabbage claimed the entire 20-acre field of cabbage from one grower last season. With cabbage selling At $20 to $25 a ton and the average yield of from 8 to 10 too.-. ?n acre, this loss ls enough to make a grow er sit up and take notice, especially j when tlie loss could easily have j been avoided. Cabbage black leg i3 I carried in the seed and therefore | is more difficult to control through treatment than If the organism i were carried cn the outside of the | VALUE OF SANITATION Most grownups recognize the de- I sirability of personal cleanlnav; and of common sense sanitation in iheir homes and places of business. It is I more comfortable to be clean after j one has reached maturity and too inconvenient to suffer the expensive ! ills that result from insanitary sur- | roundings. When it comes to their ; [XMiltry. however, that is quite a dif- ; ferent story in all too many in stances. The same man w'ho would recoil in horror from a filth en crusted dish placed before him on tus table allows his fowls to eat and drink from utensils that are no less i am offense to decency because tmev 1 :.fed. The only effect.ve control worked cut by scientists Is the hot water troa ment whereby the seed is immersed for 23 minutes in water heated to a temperature of 122 de grees Fahrenheit. Even with this treatment there will lie a loss In germination or from 10 to possibly 25 per cent because old seed and seed of low vitality will be entirely killed. Any grower would be willing to take that loss in seed germina tion if he could be reasonably sure that the organism in the seed was controlled. Any grower, by using a little care, can hot water treat his cabbage seed at heme. Fill a wash boiler full of water and heat to 122 degrees, using two tested water thermometers, one thermom eter to check on (he other. After the water reaches 123 degrees the wash boiler is removed from the stove. The cabbage seed Is loosely tied In coarse cheesecloth bags, about half a ]>eund to the bag. af ter which it is suspended in the hot water for 23 minues. Five pounda of seed may be treated at one time where a large quantity of water Is used. Surplus water should be heated in the teakettle and held in reserve in case th" water tempera ture falls under 121 degrees. After the seeds have been treated fer 23 minutes they are removed, dipped in cold water to cool, and spread out to dry. It would be advisable to hot water treat the seed just previ ous to planting, then allow It to dry so as to facilitate easy sowing eltheT by hand or with the seed drill. MOST IMPORTANT ACRE One sadly neglected and very val uable acre or part of an acre which. Eroperly cared for, will yield the ixgest net return of any cn the farm is the vegetable garden. Val uable, in that it returns a large cash return per acre. Valuable, in that it provides healthful and tasteful food for the family table. Valuabla in that it provides a reliable source of vitamins for the dally diet, a health requirement lor working men and women and growing children City dwellers are annually purchas ing a greater amount of vegetables while people In the country usually find it cheaper and more convenient to raise their own. The vegetables raised and used from even a small garden during a season would cost the average family at least $50 If purchased at a store, while thous ands of farm housewives, especially those who can many quarks of vege tables each summer, secure annual return of two, three or four times that amount. The shadow of the hoe handle has stood between many a farm table and the vegetable gar den. But by proper arrangement o*d hoeing a smaller garden ‘ patch.” In this way a supply ol vegetables for canning as well as summer table use can be raised with no extra labor while many garden crops can be dried or stored In a cellar for winter use. ♦* llUtt.ll IS Biuni I’m eighty, by gravy, but spry as a br.bv, a sort of a sport In my way; And Maria has itched ever since we ben hitched fer the sight, of a blight cabaret.

CLOVER CULTURE While it is true the.t red clover will grow very nicely on soils that are slightly acid, the fact should not be overlooked that it will do much better on a soil that carries an abundance of lime. It will pay to lime acid soils for red clover as has already been demonstrated by many farmers, but it isn’t so necessary as It is for alfalfa and sweet clover. These two levum'»3 simply refuse to grow on soils that are even only slightly acid, tt is a waste of money to sow alfalfa and 3weet cloveT on soils that show an acid reaction ac cording to test.

Probing Facts of Fatnoss The hereditary of fatness, but of mice not human beings, is undergoing investigation at Lelnnd Stanford uni versity. Dr. C. II. Danfortli of the department of anatomy, points out in the Journal of Hereditary that yellow mife are almost always fatter than their gray, white or allotted brothers or sisters. They are not only fatter but seem to have much greater re sistance and ability to survive on a restricted diet than their skinnier confreres. It seems probable, says the scientist, that the fat is stored In a manner to make it readily avail able In time of need. Further studies are In progress to ascertuln the ratio In which the mice that are fat and yellow transmit their qualities to their offspring. The charm ef a bathroom Is Its spot lessness.
