It means saving 70 per cent or more, liquid as well as solid. The problem of keeping live stock with profit is largely a matter of making use as silage, roughage or bedding of stuff that is wasted on the average farm. Weeds and weed seeds, usually counted worse than nothing, may be put on the right side of the ledger by means of a few sheep. POVPOOP000POOOOOO® POPPOPOOPPPOOVPPPOOPOOOOD & BOOOOOOOOOOOOOGOS CONTROL INSECT PESTS. State Agricultural Gives Advice to Farmers. [Prepared -by Kansas State Agricultural college.] ‘While the average Kansan has little idea of where the insect pests spend the winter, yet this knowledge, say the entomologists in the Kansas State Ag- ricultural college, is of utmost impor- tance to the farmer in working out and applying methods of control. The entomologists explain that most of the insects in the winter season are in a state in which they are readily ac- cessible to control and that generally the best methods of control are con- ducive to better agriculture regardless of whether the insects are actually present. This is particularly true of means employed in exterminating the staple crop insects. “The staple crop insects—the field crop pests—spend the winter in all stages,” says James W. McColloch, as- sistant in entomology in charge of sta- ple crop insect investigation—‘“that is, one group of insects may live through the winter as adults, another may hi- bernate as larvae, and still another may exist in the egg stage.” The chinch bug, states Mr. McCol- loch, spends the winter as an adult in clump forming grass, such as blue stem and bunch grass. Burning grass Kansas College The corn ear worm winters as a pupa in its pupal cell from two to six inches below the surface of the ground. The “faxseed” or Hessian fly pupa may be found in early sown or volunteer wheat or in wheat stubble. They are under the sheaths of the wheat stock. The grasshopper remains in the egg stage throughout the winter. The eggs are in capsules at a depth of from one- half to one inch below the surface of the ground along the roadside, in al- falfa fields and in almost any unculti- vated land. - TROPPMAN'S GROCERY DEPARTMENT From March 4th, to March 11th, 1916 Bismarck Pickles in gt jars sweet - sour - dills, Sweet Tomato Relish, 320 Sweet Polish Sauer Onions and Chow-Chow, per jar...........

Pumping and carrying water are two of the most time consuming farm tasks. They are done in hundreds of differ- | ent ways, most of them tedious. Several ingenious devices have late- ly appeared that offer relief. One is || a galvanized steel standpipe that can be installed in the barn or any build- ing that will protect it from frost in winter. An excellent place is in the |fd middle of the silo where the heat of the silage will keep it warm. This WATER SUPPLY TANK. tank is made twenty feet high and from two to three feet in diameter. The two foot size holds fourteen bar- rels and the three foot holds thirty- three barrels. This standpipe was originally in- tended for use with windmills, but a gas engine or any other convenient power can be used. Another interesting water supply help for use with electric motors is a basement pressure tank filled with a motor operated pump. The starting and stopping of the electric motor is automatically controlled by the air pressure in the tank.—Farm and Fire- side. Making Capital Available, Keep accounts—find just where your | g money comes from and just where it goes. Some men’s wealth is like a good deal of the fertility in their soil— it is not “available.” If the boys and girls are to be kept on the farm the farm must be made not only a finan- cial and economic success, but also a family and civic success. Any reason- able expenditure for making the home place more attractive is as real and profitable an investment as though the money had heen spent for limestone and phosphate.
