In order to. obtain an abundance of eggs it .-is nocessary to have healthy. vigorous stock,.properly fed.] The following —are good grain mix- tures fr the laying stock, the pro- portions being by -weight: Ration 1 —Equal patts of cracked corn, wheat, an doats.

There are few farmers whose profits would not be increased greatly by raising al- @ Every farmer should aim to produce as far as possible, all his foodstuffs upon his own farm, ° During the last two years the area to alfalfa has greatly increased in the region Wwest of the Missour] river, and it ‘is cértain that there. will be -an equally rapid increase throughout -the eastern part of the United States. Many of the attempts. in the past “to grow alfalfa in the humid regions have failed, but with our present ALFALFA: crop there will be little, if.any, more trouble in securing a stand of alfalfa| than of clover. However, the methods | followed in securing a catch of clover will almost certainly fail with alfaifa. Do not be hasty in concluding your stand is poor. It frequently shows up to better advantage the second vear. In case the stand is not satisfactory, it is generally better 1o use the same sround for a second trial than to take 2 new field. The land values In those portions of the Jnited States where both torn and al’alia are grown will alivays be, higfi- r-—much: higher—than M’ _thode re. gions where only one of these crops can be grown to advantage. Twenty ats from now evervone will wonder | how we got along without alfalfa and | Why we dld not recognize its zreat sooner. That-alfalfa can be and 1 be grown successfully throughout the aumid resioms in the future there i 1o longer any doubt. There is no combination of feeds so cconomical for the production of beef, pork, butter and eggs. and for growing animals. as corn and alfalfa. Neither WEI give the best results aione. We| need alfalfa because it balances up the corn ration and saves the large waste starch which always takes place © corn is fed alone. We need al- falt. because we can in this way grow on our own farms. the protein more profitably than we can buy it in feed- stuffs. We need alfalfa because it 1*oduces on an average double the food, value per acrg of clover or any ctler crop. CHOLERA KILLS FEWER HOGS. According to. records of the United States Department of Agriculture for the 13 months from April 1, 1913, to April 30, 1819, hog .chelera &illed 515,004 hogs, Valued -at $62,042,655.15, in the United States. “Fhis is the low- est loss by numbers for a similar pe- riod “in the livestock history of ~ the United States; ‘but_ on account fo the high price of hogs the monetary loss was heavy. For example, during the vear ending: March 31, 1913. hogs humbering 6,064,470 and. worth $58 583 died ' from cholera.. while the next year the disease - took 6,304,320 hogs worth $67,697,461. Department ' experiments show ‘that timeliness in_vacetnating hogs against cholera is all important. When ex- posed Hogs werg: vaccinated, ‘while still apparently healthy,. .losses amounted to only 4 per cent, but when vacc- nation. was defefred -until; the animals showed external ‘signs '%f . sickness, losses averaged. mearly. 29 - per cent.

Thee should bhe sufficient mois- ture in tl't potato storage house te prevent the wilting of the tubers and at the same time to maintain a humidity contest low enough to pre- vent a deposit of moisture on the surface of the .potatoes. One- inves- tigator suggests. a humidity of from 85 to 90 per cent. as about correct for a potato storage room tempera- ture of 33 degrees to 35 degrees F. Glenerous provisions for adequate ventilation must be made, the venti- lators or air flues being arranged so as to insure a rapid and even distri- bution of air throughout the struc- ture. 1t is a bad practice to store pota- toes in large bins or piles. Not in- frequently the tubers are heaped to a depth of 10 or 15 feet, the pile be- ing correspondingly large in the other dimensions. Such storage al- most . invariably results in violent |, sweating or curing, in which the spuds in the central portion of the pie are frequently _subjected to a dangerous! high temperature. This is especially true if the tubers are slizhtly immature or gathered, or if storéd when the out- and, free from .~ moist soil when side” temperature was high, making it difficult to lower the inside tem- perature of the house. Such over- heating 1nay- be. avoided by insert- int division walls at intervals throughout - the pile. The division walls may consist of 2 to 4 inch up- rights on . the 2-inch face of which are nailed seven-eighths by four inch | strips of any desired length, leaving a 1-inch space between each strip. This_provides a ventilated partition. which can be of any height and length desired. By placing these in an upright position 5 to 6 feet apart as the bin or storage house is being filled. good ventilation will be se- cured ' and 1 easy avenue of escape for beth hesr and moisture provid- el CURING HENS THAT EAT THEIR EGGS.

Once formed. 1t is difficult 4o eradicate and the safest remedy is the death penalty. Fowls sometimes _pluck from themselves and fro each other, which is often caused by too close confinement, by the presencoc of insect pests or by imprgper feed-| ing. When some of the fowls of a flock have formed the habit sligh a wide range with a charge of diet, includiiz a plentifgl supply of ani- mal feed. and freedom from insect pests. will usmaily ocorrect the evil. Ahove -all, see that the fowls have plenty of inducement to exercise. If the habit hecomes - well formed it is very troublesome and may necessi- tate the killingh.of some of the fowls in_order to stop it. / STATE COLLEGE FAIR EXHI Somewhere along the. “midwa; Counecticut Agricultural fairs this fail. perhaps with the time-honowed African dodger on one side and the snake charmer on the. other. will be found a tent, thirty feet by forty. that houses the exhibit of the Connecticut Agricultural _college. It -will repre- sent -the college’s ideals. of thg best farm and home practices. Agricultural fairs are taking on more and more of the educational and less of the purely amusement aspects of former years and the college be- lieves that they offer an exceptional opportunity to reach the people with new ideas. In a small tent the col- lege has attempted. to compress as much real” informatfon - and :practical suggestion as possible. : Four departments of ‘the exhibit deal with essentials of farming suc- cess. The first concerns livestock. It details the practical ‘economical meth- ods of obtaining hens that lay 160 eggs a' year, - cows that give 7.000 pounds of milk, sheep that shear eight pounds of wool. bees that produce 100 pounds of honey - to-the hive. ‘One of the most- interesting of the departments deals with the farm home, especially with the equiping of farm homes so as to give farm women equal opportunities with other | housekeepers.
