BExperiments conducted at the Kansas State Agricultural col- lege and co-operative tests con- ducted with farmers in various parts of the state show that home grown seed of an acclimated va- rlety and of good quality will outyleld seed introduced from other localitles. This is especial- 1y evident when corn is moved to a less congenial environment— that is, from a favorable to an unfavorable corn growing local- ity. For instance, corn grown on the rich glacial soils of north- eastern Kansas or on similar solls in Iowa or any other east- ern state does not, as a rule, do well on the less fertile residual sofls of goutheastern Kansas. Vardeties of corn moved west in the state a considerable distance do not usually produce so well as the acclimated varietles. Re- sults obtained in co-operative tests demonstrate that where a variety of corn has been grown in a given locality for many years and the seed properly se- lected each season that varlety is, as a rule, a superior one for growing in that locality.—Kan- sas Farmer. 90000090 090000000000000090000060006000009 0000000900000 9000000900000000OPOO©00S PPPPPPPSPPP0OPOOOO R e e A kS HINTS FOR FARMERS. :;i For the home garden choose vege- tables of Pest quality.

Dur- ing that time I have seen many ups and downs, some losses, but ordinarily reasonable profit in the venture, writes J. O. Rogers in the Orange Judd Farm- er. Cattle feeding is always a venture, particularly to the inexperienced. To the man on to the tricks it pays rea- sonably well most of the time. I get my stock for feeding right around home. Some of it is bred on the farm, five or six calves, as we do not keep many cows. 1 know everybody around here and know who has a calf or two to sell each year. These I always buy in advance, taking them home at weaning time or a few months later, as the seller prefers. These are kept on the farm and raised The first authentic importations of Herefords into this country were made by Henry Clay in 1817. Since that time these animals have been distributed_over all parts of this country. They are especially liked on the plains and in the pasture districts of the southwest. They have long been noted for their grazing qualities. They make their best beef at an early age. imal shown is a Hereford. The an- in the ordinary way, when they are separated and started on the road for fattening. There is no secret in this business of feeding for fat. I put the cattle iu age from twelve to eighteen months on a ration of corn stover, clover hay. corn and cottonseed meal. [ let them have at first all the corn stover they want, and a limited feed of clover once a day. At first a half pound of cottonseed meal is fed each day to each animal. The corn is started at the rate of one bushel to eight head. In a week or so corn is increased to a bushel to seven head, then a bushel to six and then to five head. After six or seven weeks of feeding the corn stover is lessened and clover increased until a feed of stover is giv- en a day and a liberal supply of clover is eaten. This is continued for six or seven weeks more, cottonseed weal in the meantime being increased to a pound a day, corn remaining the same. The cattle have now been on a feeding ration for about twelve to fourteen weeks. During the final feeding period little stover is fed, but clover is continued liberally, cottonseed meal increased to two pounds daily and corn fed at the rate of a bushel to four head of stock. The gains will run from.one and three- fourths to two pounds a day on the average for the entire feeding. period. At this rate of gain there is a fair profit, besides a fine pile of manure for land improvement. R. L. GIVEN, Editor. Vol. 1, No. 28 Paint The Town Red Join With the Farmers and Use Min- nesota Linseed 0il Company’s Paints—They’re Best. Herman Fenske was anxious to get the best paint for his farm buildings and after making careful investiga- tions found that Minnesota paint was the best to use in this climate. Mr. Fenske lives in the town of Bemidji a few miles south of the ; |city and was willing to be shown all about paints. He was satisfied that Minnesota paint would give the best service. In the last issue of the Popular Mechanics appeared an article on house paint which every house owner should read. Compare the formula they recommend with the formula of Minnesota paint, then decide for yourself. ‘While many paint concerns are reducing the amount of zinc oxide used on account of high prices of zine, the Minnesota company con- tinues to use the same formula.
