The fact that grain is commanding enor- mous prices is sufficient reason why its use should be limited. Profitable duction of meat and economical wintering of breeding animals without the necessity of a large amount of grain in the why its use should be curtailed. In the dairy -barn, roots, or forage alfaifa, clover, moy- beans and cow-peas, may partly take the place of zrcin. The best feed to use as a partial substitute for grain is silage. For all practical purposes, a balanced raticn for an average cow giving fiftecen to elghteen pounds of milk is about fourteen pounds of al- felfa hay and thirty-five pounds of sorn stlage. o grain is' necessary for that production. A pound of cot- zonseed-meal fed on the silage will furnish the necessary protein. A cow oducing more than eightesn pounds of milkk will need grain, the amount cepending on tke quantity of milk. Tn the feed lots the most economical gains on steers and Tambs are se- cured when silage d alfalfa or clover hay are used larzely in the ra- tlon. Swine being fitted for market can not consume any large amount of roughage, but broad sows relish al- falfa hay, and its use insures strong, healthy itters. Tillies and weanlin® Its utilize alfaifa hay advantageous- while mares in foal may be win- tered on thot ration alone, Breed- ing ewes that enter the winter in gcod shape can be carried until la: i t grain, provided they have a good supply of well-cured al- crops such as .

If you are breeding for speed, mate ions-legged males and - females. Most of us would not care for that kind of sheep on our farms. We do not want fence jumpers, but quiet, vet vigorous skeep. For this, sheep with short legs and compact bodies are best. Every vear or two some one sug- gests that the state forests be used as sheep or goat ranches. The foresters say it is impracticable. Why not use farm pastures instead? A narrow gateway for sheep leads to a big lot of trouble. A sheep corral is nothing jess than insurance against sheep-killing dogs, which have constituted one of the Freatest obstacles to sheep-raising. Sheep may be driven Into the cofral at night, since sheep losses usually occur at’ night. POULTRY ' NOTES. Getting winter eggs is not so nmpu as it sounds. There is many a Eetween the &raceful young pallet and the laying hen. Disease can be largely prevented| when, in mating each year, we select only ‘rugged stock. No fowl should be_used that was sick for even a dfs. Bran is one of the most ‘mportant ingredients of poultry diet, and should be fed daily. It is rich in nitrogen, carbon and mineral matter. Disinfect the . houses, etc., _every month. Get a good coal-tar product, dilute it according to directions, and spray the interior thoroughly. TBie { sent to “market should be guaranteed. This, however,, is nét rossible when eggs are picked up sbout the yard or range or in hidden nests. The best prices are paid for cuaranteed eggs. The that it does no harm to keep males of one's own raising for breeding purposes, is @ notion bound to go on the junk pile with other wrong ideas. Hardy fowls are the only kind it pays to keep, and it is impossible to have this kind if we in- breed.—Fannie M. Wood. Harvey Hill, Los Angeles, Cal, has thirty-six White Leghorn hens that in_eight months laid 5161 eggs, which sold for $123.17. The feed cost $76.59 ieaving a net nrofit of $46.58.

If you want to have fewer squash bugs and cabbage worms in your arden ‘next year now is the time to begin the fight against them. Hev- eral of the worst insect pests can be Irflled at this season of the year, thus reducing the number for next year. Thowe ~ aduwlt insoots walch [Nive through the winter may be the par- ents of hundreds of young mnext epring. The equash bug hibernates among )4 squash vines, leaves, and rubbish on the ground. One can find them now by pulling over the old vines and looking closely. On cold ~davs or early in the morning they are quiet but become active as the temperature rises. Next spring these will be ready 1o start families of small but vora- clos youns bugs The cabbase woith poeses the winter as a chrysalis (dormant stage) fastened by silken cords to_old cabbage leaves and stumps. Barly in the spring butter- fi'es emerege from these and then are ready to lay eggs on the newly cab- Lage plants. Many other insects pass tho winter in a similar manner. To 1educe their rumbers for next year collect and destroy all crop rem- such as cabbage stumps and and tomato vines and silks. The garden should have a thorough cleaning in the fall it one wants to conserve the plant fcod in the garden litter, it can be added to the compost heap. There is another group of insects which may be successtully foughi at White grubs, vuyrm-, cut worms, and other mnotor, ious garden pests pass the winter in the ground. Fall plowing will kil many of these so that there will be {fewer alive in the spring to start their destructive work on the garden plants. Some will be crushed by the plow ‘while many will be thrown out on the surface where the changing weather conditions may kil them or where they can be attacked easily by their ratural enemiss, such as insects, birds and other animals. Where fall plow- ing does not interefere,with cultiva. tion methods it can be made an im- portant factor in the battle against these any many other insects.—J. A. Manter, Department of Entomology, Connecticut Agricultural College. LATE HATCHED PULLETS. Care Should Be Taken to Cull Out Unprofitable Ones. here never was a time when poul- iry keepers were so badly handicap- Ded as they art this year with a rge percentage of late-hatched pul- lets which with the best of care can- not be expected to lay eggs before late in* December. This condition Lrought about Ly the high price. of grain last spring when thousands of poultry keepers held up their hatch- ing because they: feared that there uld be a srcrtage of grain which vould drive them out of business. Later on when the government and the state committees of public safety appealed to the people ‘of both city and country to raise all the stock pos- sible, a very large percentage of the poultry keepers with both small flocks. responded to. this cali and hatched chickens in late May and June, which from the outset were bound to be unprofitable. Having fed these birds for six onths, these same poultry keepers de not like to sell them on the mar- ket for 25 cents a pound, 2nd they arc being held at a great loss ik the hopes that they will develop later om into profitable hirds. In some cases i a wise thing to do. In many it is foolish. Every poultry in order to have a profitable must cull his stock as never before.Not only rid himself of every pullet that is inferior in health and vizor or under size but also divide h flocks into two or three lots de- ending upon their ages, so that the cunger birds will be given a better hance to develop. Persons who fol- low the practice of keeping all of | the] birds in ome pen and have atched at various intervals throwgh e spring and early summer _are bound to make a failure of their bu: iness this winter if tha younger pul- lets are not put in a pen by them- :!rl\es and given special care. If the ision of pullets is not possible be- cause of lack of epace. it will be far more profitable to dispose of all birds that are below the medium and larg- est size of the flock. Small pullets in the pen by themselves given an op- rertunity to cat dry mash of good guality ‘all day long with generous feeds of grain Loth morning and night are likely to develop very rapidly, if cold weather holds off another month, and during the late winter and early spring will probably lay enough eggs to pay for their keeping and give a small profit. They can never be suf- ficlently profitable to warrant keep- them after they stop laying next summer and for that reason should a'ways be kept separatley or so marked that they can be easily dis- tinguished and so0ld as soon as they no longer lay eggs. A good ary mash for pullets which are = still Zrowing nisy contain two parts by weight of hominy. Schumacher’s feed. giuten, wheat, mixed feed. high-grade meat scraps and_onc-balf part of linseed ol meal. The present hign price of corn makes it desirable to feed a large percentage of corn products in the ary mash, ration with 4 very smal per cent in the sératch grain. There ir on the market today a proguct known as pitched or frosted wrest which is recommended by ail the ex- Feriment staticns of New England as of feeding value nearly equal to wheat of the first grade. This can be cbtained at a price much Jower than corn and a ration consisting of four rarts of pinched wheat, two parts of ocats and ore of corn will give Sood results. LOSS IN STORING POTATOES. Many people are planning to store their potaotes for spring delivery. The price which one should secure for epring delivery compared with Il delivery should be considerably greater due to the fact that there is considerable sirinkage in weight and waste. caused by decomposition. Po- tatoes properly stored for 10 weeks' time in cold cellar and pit, under favorable conditicns, lose very little. - Norwalk—Suit to recover $10,000 damages has been brought by Mrs. Hazel Q.

WAR TRADE BOARD HAS RELEASED DUTCH STEAMER It Will Carry Packages for Haeliand and Corn for Belgium. Jodoin in Mr. a Washington, Nov. 6.—An early agreement between the United States and Holland on the disposal of Dutch tonnage in American ports was seen here today in the release by the war trade board of the Dutch steamer ieuw Amsterdam for a return trip across the Atlantic. The vessel will leave an American port shortly, carrying a cargo of pack- age freicht for Holland, ten thousand tons of corn for. Belgian relief and several hundred Dutch refugees as rassengers. Wire cable badly needed for the operation of Duich coal mines make up a part of her cargo, Licenses for the Nieuw - Amster- dam’s cargo were held up by the American authorities when the Dutch Eovernment refused to give assur- ances that she would not be Interned for safety as soon as she reached the other side. In the negotlations that followed the American government refused to recede from its position and finally the Dutch yielded. A final agreement as to the opera- tion of the other Dutch vessels held in America was belteved to be in sight. The principal clauses of this agree- ment, it is reported, will provide that a large number of Dutch ships enter the American coastwise trade to re- lease American vessels for overseas service: that part of the tonnage be placed in trade fo the Dutch Bast In- dies for the benefit of Holland, and the allies and that a limited number of ships be permitted to ply between America and Holland, carrying car- Zoes to be approved by the war trade hoard. Refugees who will sail on the Nieuw Amsterdam have gathered in the Tnited States from. many ends of the carth. Some came from the Dutch Last Indies and many from the Ori ent. Al have been awaiting an op- portunity to reach Holland safely.
