An effec tive anti-acid like Phillips Milk of Magnesia soon restores digestion to normal. Phillips does away with all that soirness and gas right after meals. It prevents the distress so apt to occur two hours after eating. What a pleasant preparation to take! And how good it is for the system! Un like a burning dose of soda—which Is but temporary relief at best— Phillips Milk of Magnesia neutral ises many times its volume in acid.

All undersized or stunted pullets should of course, be culled. Poor hens should be discarded. Thanks to the colleges, experiment stations and extension service, poui trymen everywhere have had a chance to become familiar with the rules for culling. Now is the time to put them into practice. BOOST FALL PIGS NOW. Early fall pigs are usually the ones that pay best—if the owner Is alive to the possibilities at hand. In other words, early fall pigs, properly handled, will have an excellent start before the cold fall rains and the short days with their meager sun shine arrive. Tests made at various experiment stations show that fall pigs during the winter are in need of the vitamin D provided by sun shine. and if the pigs can be given a good start while this free source of the vitamin is at hand, the cost of producing a pound of pork can be materially reduced. For some time yet we will have green feed out-of doors as well as sunshine. Later the substitute for this will be far more costly. It is well known that young inimals make the best use of their feed. Consequently. It pays to pro vide abundant feed of the right kind while the pigs are young. A creep where the pigs may be fed milk and have access to a self-feeder is high ly valuable at this time. In some in stances both sows and pigs are fed from the start on self-feeders. This is excellent practice if the rows, too, are to go to market. The important thing with fall pigs is to give them a good start now while the cheap, easy methods are at hand. Dry beds and a good ration go a Ion-; way to ward making fall pigfc pay. IMPROVING THE FLOCK Early fall is the ideal time to make preliminary selections for next spring's breeding pens, because birds that are laying now are apt to be pretty good birds to breed from, other things being equal. Since production has been dropping off since early summer, and since the birds that maintain thedr pro duction until late in the fall are usually the best layers, it is h. sim ple matter to dispose of the hens as they stop laving and keep those that hold up their production, pro vided. of course, they have other needed qualities—vigor, good body shape, good color for the breed they represent, and no disqualifications. A more careful selection can be made later, whpn the pens are act ually mad' up. If no attempt is made now, however, to select on the basis of egg production, and the whole flock is kept until later for selection, a good opportunity is lost to know just how late production held up for each individual. Stsr<* ilso can be taken now to improve the male side of the breeding pen, by ordering males of known high jroducing ancestry, good quality as :o body and feathers, and high vi tality. Specialty breeders have a number of such males to sell in the fall. Too often ordering is left to the last minute, just before the oreeding season, and the best males ire gone by that time. So Septem oer offers opportunities to Improve .he flock. BEATING HOG FLU The earlier in the fall the spring jigs can be made heavy enough for marketing, the more safety there is from flu, the worst trouble that the nog raiser has to contend with, says the manager of a hog ranch which raises some 500 hogs a year ifter a well-laid-out plan. This in 'ludes farrowing in a clean central nog house beginning as early as February; removal at two weeks of wge to a sheltered bluegrass lot; »nd after saTe season, into alfalfa, there to be continued on self-feed ing of oats, shelled coin and min eral. By September a carload of these pigs Is ready for market kt weights ranging from 200 to 225 pounds each, and before the flu weather of winter sets in practically ill have gone the same road to market. This ranch uses a low wagon for removing two sows and FALL FERTILIZING^BEST Recent experiments in a rasp berry field show that the time of ipplying nitrogen fertilizers may Iiave considerable influence on sub sequent fruit production. Fertilizers r'ere applied at various times during he growing season—in early spring, when the buds were showing green, when the berries were turning red. ifter harvest, and about September 10. There were no pronounced dif ferences in the total quantity - of fruit harvested from the plants irown under the different treat ments. but there were distinct dif ferences in the ripening season. Con siderably larger yields for the l.rst picking* wet* obtain** i™ tu* their litters at a time from the central farrowing house to eithei the sheltered loi or the alfalfa field. Choice of the various type* of portable houses used is one ol three sections because it is iowei in overhead costs. These are sta tioned about the alfalfa area, one big lield cut up in quarters by fenc ing to accommodate pigs of differ ent ages. Where the four lots inter sect at the common center of the whole area the feeding is done and a well is driven for water supply Every two years a new field is ready for the pigs. By the plan ot early farrowing, removal across foul lots in the low wagon, clean area* for range and self-fed balanced ra tion, they are able to make money from hogs even in time o' low prices. “The hogs always make more than the market price of corn they consume,” Said the farm man ager. The sows raised an average of seven and one-half pigs each up to weaning time last spring, pig? that no doubt would be out ol range of flu when winter might usher it in. ----+--.... - — MODERN RAT CONTROL Rats are still mankind’s worst mammal pest. On iarms there is no more likely place to harbor them than the poultry house. Here plenty of food and water are always avail able, and warm nesting quarters fur nish an ideal place ror their1 rapid multiplication. Rats rel*h baby chicks, will attack adult birds, ana eat eggs. They are doubtless an im portant factor in the spread of poultry diseases. The three R's of rat control are Ratproofing, Right baits and Red squill. The best pre vention of rat infestation is a rat proof poultry house. If houses are constructed with solid concrete lloor* with foundation walls extending about two feet into the ground, or if the houses are raised on posts one foot or more above the ground, free dom from rats is generally assured All double walls or places of con cealment should be eliminated. The poison-bait method for the imme diate control of rats is probably the most efficient way. The best baits are fresh ground fish, such as cod or halibut; fresh ground hamburger and a cereal mixture of rolled oats, corn meal and Graham flour. There is no one bait that ail rats will eat, but if all three of these are set, the rats will generally find one of their to their liking. Red squill is the rec ommended poison, since it kills rats but is relatively harmless to poultry dogs and cats. It is the safest rati cide known to the department ol agriculture. The highly toxic form of powdered red squill is preferred; one ounce of the squill should be used to one pound of bait. Small baits about the s*ze of a marble should be distributed successively; such as, first hamburger, then fish, then cereal, every few feet over the entire premises. Place the baits in places frequented by rats, wher* they feed and along their runways In poultry houses baits may be placed behind boards leaned length wise against the wall to form a nat ural runway, or behind boxes, sc I that only the rats can reach them, j It takes from fou- hours to four day* ; for red squill to kill rats, thus giving them ample time to reach their un derground burrows, where they usually die. For the same reason few dead rats are found in the open NEW WAY TO TELL SEX Although first-generation cross breds have become very popular in England, the idea has not taken hold so rapidly in America. The methods followed n England of utilizing sex linked colors of chick down are not so well adapted to the more common breeds and varieties in this country. Mirst, the cross between the Rhode Island Red and Barred Plymouth Rock produces a black hybrid fe male against which there is a color prejudice. The other crosses pro ducing silver males and gold fe males do not Include many common I breeds from which the female par ent may be taken. A new method [ utilizing the growth of wing feathers at hatching has been developed at | a western agricultural experiment i station. When a White Leghorn male is mated to practically any American or Asiatic breed female, the daughters will have well devel oped wing feathers at hatching while the males will show practical ly no growth beyond the down on the wings. The new method has these advantages: It places at the disposal of the crossbreeder the pro duction-bred White Leghorn, which previously has not been available; It produces a hybrid which is predomi nantly white, and greatly increases the list of breeds and varieties from which females may be chosen for crossbreeding. ---- . ■ . SOMETHING NEW IN SPRAYS Fruit growers of the Northwest are showing considerable interest in the new spray material that is being used as a fungicide. This material is calcium monosulphide. It was ex perimented with and tried out for four years and used last season by a few growers. Calcium monosulphide seems to be a good agent with which to control scab, and scab in some districts Ls a far greater prob lem to the growers of apples and pears than is the codling moth. This material was also tried out on peaches for brown rot with results that were very satisfactory. While casting somewhat more^at present than the spray materials In general use, it is much more pleasant to handle. It mixes well with the lead arsenate that must be used for the codling moth. The greatest claim for it is that it helps to prevent side russeting and end blossom injury of fruit. The spray recommended is twelve and a half pounds to a hun dred gallons of water for apples, and six pounds to a hundred gallons for brown rot on peaches. Experiments were carried on with the chemical as used in the drug trade, but commer cial manufacture of calcium mono sulphide has already been started. fall-fertilized farm than from the spring and summer fertilized plants. The difference in yield of early fruit is thought to be sufficient to war rant fall applications of readily available nierogen fertilizers. The best results .were obtained from the use of sulphate of ammonia, which was broadcast between the rows and worked into the soil by cultivation. No benefits were derived from the use of fertilizers containing phos phorus. ■ »-♦♦ ..
