You know we meet anybody’s prices ‘on Windows and Doors. Now here is the story. Some three years ago our General Manager-Mr. Moore took a business and pleasure trip to the Pacific coast, and while he was there he made a contract with one of the largest Sash and Door Houses in the west to manufacture our windows and doors. This factory is located in the heart of the western white pine forests. They manufacture the Doors and Windows right on the ground where the timber grows. They saw their own timber into Lumber most suited for this work. They select the best part of the tree for this purpose. They are equipped with the latest modern machinery, they employ the most skilled mechanics, they are proud of their finished products, they have a reputation to maintain. Now here is where we save our customers money. We have these.Doors and Windows shipped to By so doing they are not subject to the rough handling of freight men. Second, by shipping in car loads we save an enormous amount of freight. Fourth, by buying from a factory that manufactures their finished products right where the timber grows, we save the enor- mous amount of freight and extra expense of handling that the average mill house is compelled to pay. For they most all ship the lumber from some sawmill to their factory-and then ship it to the consumer.

By Professor M. F. Miller, College of Agriculture, University of Missouri. A system of running water in the house is the first thing that the farm- er owes his wife and himself. carrying of water from a well or cis- tern, remotely located from the kitch- en door, provided with a pump that has to be primed every time it is used, or a rope and bucket, is too well known to need attention. Every farm home ghould be supplied with a grav- ity tank system, the water being pumped by a windmill or a gasoline engine, or with one of the more mod- ern air pressure water supply sys- tems. However, the matter of sewage and drainage is even more neglected than is the water supply, and it is next in importance to the water supply. There are various forms of septic tanks and complicated devices for the handling of sewage, and wherever it is possible, and always in the larger systems, these should be used. For most houses a four-inch or six-inch glazed sewer pipe into which the drain empties as it leaves the cellar is sufficient. This glazed tile should have ce- mented joints and should extend 100 feet away from the house and all wells. This is important. Water seeping from sewer pipe will carry typboid or other infectious bacteria through the ground for fifty feet into the well and make the water danger- ous to use, often causing disease. When all danger from contamina- tion is past, the cost may be lessened by using ordinary red drain tile. The fall of this drain should be not less than one foot in one hundred, and it is better that it be two or three feet in one hundred. For simple systems this drain may be emptied into any convenient low ground where the sewage will be absorbed by the soil. It may, of course, be emptied into a running stream, but this is dangerous for the people living below, fot the stream will carry germs and filth for thirty miles. One of the safest systems is to run this sewage onto a sand bed twenty or thirty feet square provided for this purpose, allowing the sewage to be absorbed in this bed. It is most sat- isfactory in larger systems to use two beds alternately. Another system is to empty the drain tile into several branches of tile on a lower level, these all running shallow and laid with open joints. If these are all laid in sand, so much the better. Whenever sewage is dissipated The; through loose surface soil the odor {fs quickly absorbed and, for all small systems especially, where a closet is not provided, the opening of the tile in an open drain or any low ground is sufficient. The main essentials are a tile of sufficient size with a good fall and cemented joints; a convenient area of low land on which the drain may empty. Care must be taken, however, to preserve the water supply from any possible contamination from this drain. Aforerterteotesterteoertentestestesterie beste IMPURE WATER CAUSE OF HOG CHOLERA. Dr. J. W. Connaway, of the Mis- souri Experiment Station, Says Disease is Like Typhoid. “The control and eradication : of hog cholera is a matter of :| education rather than vaccina- | tion with hog cholera serum,” says Dr. J. W. Connaway, vete- i rinarian of the Missouri Expert- ment Station. Hogs must have pure water. Hog cholera is like: typhoid. The English call it “pig ty- phoid.” Last summer, when it was so dry and the pools were low and stagnant, the disease was spread by the great num- ber of hogs that drank from ponds The farmers that gave their hogs well water had the least cholera on their farms. Hogs often become permanent carriers of the disease germs after they have been cured, and will spread the infection. Doc- tor Connaway also says that pigeons carry the hog cholera germs from one farm to an- other. : The buildings where hogs are kept should be disinfected with air-slaked lime. It is cheap and you can see where you put it. Disinfect the hog lot also. Where proper sanitary condi- tions exist there is little danger of hog cholera. Hogs should not be fed in the mud, but on hard ground or on a brick or concrete floor. Many thousand doses of hog cholera scrum were prepared and distributed by the Experi- ment Station last month.

Department of Entomology, College of Agriculture, University of Missouri. as the grass begins to grow , the adult chir that have lived through "ac winter comme out of their hic and fly about in search of suitable food. In some springs the insects are so numerous at this time that they at- tract a great deal of attention by alighting on people by the dozens. It "3 that spring is the great mi- g senson in Missouri, when the cover great distances and large aress, Many of these bugs crawl nstead of flying, although most of these spring bugs fly. In the fall, however, most of the traveling is done by crawling instead of flying. After the insects have found suita- ble plants for food, they insert their beaks through the tissues of the plant and suck the sap. In this search for the proper food plants, immense num- bers of the insects alight in the wheat fields of Missouri. If the field hap- pens to be near a wood or Osage orange hedge, or a wind break where there is plenty of shelter in which As soon in the s any | they hibernated in winter, the field is likely to be badly infested. In such instances they are usually found massed together on the plants nearest the hibernating quarters. Their pres- e*ce can soon be detected by their effect on the plants. It seems that chinch bugs inject a poison into the plant. which causes a stronger flow of sap to the place where the beak has punctured. This may do more injury than the loss of the sap which the insect actually ex- tracts. A wheat field attacked by the bugs will appear bleached in the area in- fested. If they are left undisturbed, the bugs will spread from plant to plant, and n a short time will take possession of the entire field. While a great number of chinch bugs mate in the fall, the vast major- ity of them mate in the spring soon after leaving their winter quarters. Quite soon afterward the females be- gin laying their eggs under little clods of earth about the base and roots of the plants. In about sixteen days these eggs will begin to hatch and the farmer will detect the little reddish or yellowish bugs in his wheat. In about six weeks these will have reached the adult stage and thr wheat field is overrun with clinch bugs. i Meantime the young bugs have been drawing their nourishment from the wheat plants by sucking the sap, and have done more or less damage ac- cording to the number of bugs in the field. Since each female lays upwards of 500 eggs, one can form an idea of the extent and multiplication of these insects after leaving their winter quarters, When the wheat has ripened so that it is no longer suitable for their food, the bugs usually migrate all at once to some gr2en crop. Some are craw!l- ing and some flying. Mostly, however, even those that are perfectly able to fly will struggle along with the imma- ture ones that can not. The corn field is usually the natura: Place for them to go, and as they are usually almost starved by their travel, the first corn is covered, sometimes until it is black with them. Soon after this migration the sec- ond brood appears, and the whole number attack the growing corn and cause very great destruetion. This second brood is the one most to be feared because of its vast numbers and the time at which it appears. By the time the bulk of this second Missouri State Bank Butler, Missouri brood of chinch bugs have reached the adult condition, the time has ap- proached for them to seek winter quarters, and the fall migrations be- gin.' If the proper winter quarters are near at hand, the most of the insects will migrate on foot to them. Other- wise the’ winged forms will take to flight and travel considerable dis tances to find the suitable places. Tt oorm is cut at this time and Stacked In shocks in the field, the farmer has given these chinch bugs the very beet kind of winter quarters. They will seek these shocks and hi- bernate there in vast numbers, If wheat is sown in this same field the following year, the bugs have been given the best conditions to start in their depredations on the wheat. Clean farming and the destruction of brush and rubbish will help in the control of this pest. Sowing of millet early in spring to attract the early. brood, then burning it while they are in it, will help. A narrow border of @ green crop makes an effective trap to hold them a few days when they are migrating, giving an opportunity to kill them off. After chinch bugs have become widely distributed over the field there is little that can be done to stop them. The “chinch bug disease’ was once hailed as a remedy, but the work that it does will go on anyway, and is scarcely under the control of man. Many men are beginning to favor the cultivation of corn after the regu- lar plowing is done and the corn is too tall to be handled with a two- horse impiement. A mower wheel dragged through with one horse will break up any crust that may be formed by a rain, and will help to Make the best growth. This may not be necessary in a year when there is plenty of rainfall, but it is likely to help any year. It is the many little differences that make profitable crops.

A mistake that is sometimes made in tesiing cream for the per cent of butter fat is in me ring the sampie with a pipette instead of weighing it out on a balance. Cream is lighter than milk,*and if An accurate butter fat test of cream requires that the sample of 18 grams be weighed into the test bottle in- stead of measured with 17.6 cc pipette. Balances like these are inexpensive and satisfactory. the milk test pipette which holds 17.6 cubic centimeters is used for cream there will be less weight of cream than there should be for the test. Furthermore, a good deal of the cream may stick to the pipette, lowering the test still more. If this method is used at the creamery, the farmer is the loser, because the cream will ap- pear to have less butter fat than it really has, The propcr method is to weigh out, on a small balance like the inexpen- sive one shown in the illustration, 18 grams of the cream (or nine grams if the cream is very rich), which is the proper weight to give accurately the per cent of fat. If nine grams is taken, the result must be multiplied by two to get the correct per cent. This difference will materially affect the income from cream selling. Wilson Names Missourian. Trenton, N.
