Plane for the “Sunday Driver” - - - ■ ■ ' .. ■.-— A “foolproof” plane that can be safely flown and landed by a novice, was tested at North Beach, L. I. Here is the plane as It came to a beautiful two- 4 point landing though Test Pilot Henry White had hands off the controls. He’s holding his hands , aloft. Automatically controlled movable wings make “robot” landing possible.

OF INTEREST TO FARMERS J PEERING EWES IN FEBRUARY The ewe flock that is to lamb In February will unquestionably re ceive good care, but too often the man with ewes that are to lamb in late March and April may neglect them through February. Ewes that are in low condition, due to nurs ing or other causes, should be given special attention. While it is not necessary to have ewes fat at the time they lainb, high condition will go a long way toward making itrong, healthy feeding lambs. In feeding pregnant ewes. It must be remembered that the ewe is making iuee uses of the feed given her. First, maintaining her body; second, {rowing and developing the fetus; uid third, laying up a reserve of at to draw upon when the suckling amb demands the most in milk. When alfalia or other leguminous bays are used as roughage, corn, >ats or one of the grain sorghums iot to exceed half a pound a head i day will suffice for e.wes. Silage blade from corn, cane or one of the •orghums will help in keeping the »wes in condition and will cheapen the ration materially. Moldy or frozen silage should not be fed to ewes. Many farmers desire to util ize as much coarse feed and rough ige as possible in feeding ewes dur- j Uig the winter months and the ewes 1 will undoubtedly make as good use of such feeds as other classes of livestock. The flock owner will find j it to his advantage not to depend wholly on such feeds for the win ter ration. Exerci.se is essential in keeping pregnant ewes in condition, but it should never be violent. They •njoy picking around even when sufficient feed is given them and the spreading of roughage over the ground is an excellent way of using the cheap feed as well as providing the ewes with the right kind of ex ercise. WHEAT IN HAIRY RATION It is not often that wheat is low enough in price to include in live stock feeds, but it is at this time. Wheat is high in starch and low in liber, thus rivaling corn in this re spect. The chief difference in these grains is in the protein and fat content. Wheat is much higher In protein and lower in fat than corn. The relative percentages of these two ingredients in these grains are 12.4 and 9.6 per cent for pro tein and 2.1 and 4.8 per cent for fat. It is this fat or oil in the corn that is chiefly responsible for its pala tability to livestock; hence wheat is not as palatable as corn. Another thing against the palatability of wheat as compared with that of corn is the fact that it forms a itickv and unpleasant mass in the mouth due to its high gluten con tent. Wheat ranks high in total digestibility. Each 100 pounds con tains 80.1 pounds digestible materi al. Corn has 81.7, barley 79.4 and oats only 70.4 per cent. Any com parison of wheat and other grains should be made on the ton rather than the bushel basis, owing to the great variability in the weight of a bushel of the different grains. Be cause the grains are small and hard, wheat should always be grQ\jn4a line of the foundation plant m# should be curved; the arrangement at the corners of the house should be rounded instead of angular. Taka a look at the sketches in your cata log—theie’s how. Keep the center of the lawn open. The flower bed had better be along the border, backed up by shrubbery, instead oi in ths center of the lawn where it h Vi folks in the eye. Walks and drive# should be as direct as po's ble, yet can be slightly curved. The driva 1 should be to the side of the hour** rather than the iront. T. s “tu» around" doesn’t belong in Iront of, the house. Where a walk or drive i* curved, a shrub or two can be placed inside the curve to-make it appear, that the, walk had been built around the plot. Bv far the safest procedura is to la.v out your pirns on paper before starting to plant. Let one inch on the drawing represent, say, !0 feet of actual distance. Make this sketcli in pencil, mark the lo cation of trees with an X. small shrubs with a circle, larger shrub# with a small ircle inside n iargeT one, etc. Indicate the walks and drive, outbuildings, etc., in iliff sketch in their proper places. Than consult the sketches in your cntlf logs or booklets on home beautifi cation (there are many good ones to be had free from various placap.1 and see what shrubs need to 8* moved. Finally, mark the locations of new shrubs to be planted, and make out the list needed. I! the list Is to large for your pocketboot stretch the planting over several seasons. The smaller sizes com® cheaper, but will not give the effect you want quite so quickly as th« larger ones. What makes tlie task so much simpler is the wealth of helpful literature that’can be had on farm home beautification. if there Is enough interest in the sub ject, why not put on a fajm horns beautification contest? Know ho.v? FEEDING FERTILITY As the breeding season approach es, one of the vital problems of th# poultry keeper is to manage hi* birds so as to get maximum fertility and hatchability of eggs. The breeders now have been confined for many weeks, the amount of sunlight which they have been re-1 cciving and hence the vitamin D content have been greatly reduced,' and special measures must be taken in feeding and care to correct this, deficiency. Tests made at a number1 of experiment stations and on com mercial poultry farms show that feeding each day a mixture of ger minated oats, evaporated buttermilk and cod-liver oil will put the birds in fine condition, and will results in materially stepping up the hatch. This mixture is .specially palatable, is rich in vitamins A. B, D and 1^' the last the recently discovered ferkj tility vitamin. In feeding this mix*] ture it is well to use three poundl] of dried cats germinated] two' pounds of evaporated buttermilk, and an eighth of a pint of cod-Ilvir oil to each 100 birds. FVed the mlx-j ture in open troughs and provld* enough feeding space for all the birds to get an equal share. j GOOD BY-PRODUCT A small flock of sheep on a well conducted farm cannot lose mcney for their owner. j crude protein, which is also some what higher than normal. Appar ently this past year's crop of com stover also was lower in crude fiber and higher in nitrogen-free extraol than average stover. It is probable that much of the corn stover in oil drought area may have a feeding value equal to mixed clover and timothy liay.
