To ascertain the faocts in the ¢ase, the biological sur- vey of the United States department of agriculture has amalyzed the contents of the stommchs of 502 common tomds, and reports that while thd findings regarding RO about their own work of gaining a livelihood, and so' undoubtedly however, and as they cannot adopt the méthods of birds and traverse wide stretches of land to aid in combating ab- normal local increases of crop and garden pests their influence is not strongly feit. The lavestigation shows that a certain partion of the toad’s food is made up of injurious insects and other pests of grow- ing plants, and that the toad pe 8 some service in such placeS as™ green- houses, gardens, fieids of small grain and gOif courses. Any harm that toads do in the consumption of beneficial beetles and other imsects useful to mf e ie of little economic importance and does not war- rant their indiscriminate destruction. BEST METHOD FOR STORING CABBAGE One of the best and cheapest ways to store cabbage for use or for sale during the winter is in pits easily and simply made. S&ect a naturally well-drained 8pot, preferably in sandy soil. Dig a pit about ome foot deep, thwee feet wide and as long 2s necessary. Place in this pit a bottom and side lining of four to six inches of dry, well-packed forest leaves. ‘When the weather becomes cold, uswally about the 15th of November, pull the cab- bages and, with the roots attached, set them into the pits with the heads resting on the leaves or hay. Put in three or fow™ cabbages abreast and two or three on top of the first layer. This forms a pyramid-shiped heap. Now pile over all aboat four inches of 0l hay, straw or leaves tightly packed with just enomgh soil to keep this material from blowing away. - As the weather becomes colder and just before the ground freezes up permanent- ly, pat on another layer of leaves, hay or straw, with soil or boards to hold this material in place. If the cabbage is to be removed gradually during the winter. ome end of the pit must be packed with leaves or straw. This can be removed and replaced again on the warmer days of mid-winter. 4 GIVE THE COW A CHANCE, SAYS COUNTY AGENT Give the cow a chance, if you want her to give milk, says one county agricul tural agent. With the coming of cold weather, the dairy herd needs more at- tention in the way of housing and feeds. And it's about time now, the county agent says, to Xeep the herd in the barn and feed for maximem milk produetion. It's all right to allow dairy animals out for an hour or o at noon to exer- cise, but it is poor practice to allow them to forage in pasture, picking up chilled grasses, applel or corn butts. The regular winter feed shouid now be n order. A good, high protein grain ra- tion, with clover hay and corn silage, should be fed, if possible. Then oat straw or corn fodder should be fed, just as we eat corn flakes or shredded wheat for breakfast—as & filler, but not as a mein diet. PIG SUEVEY TO COVER THE WHOLE COUNTRY The second semi-annual pig survey, cards for which are now being distributed to rural mail carriers, will cover the en- tire country, the United States depart- ment of agricuiture has ammounced. The survey last spring covered only 17 states, but as an indication of present and prob- able pig production the survey was a 3 great success and readily demonstrated First Masquerade . Ball of Season ° Given by A.C.W. of A.. Three Big Prizes Given Away AT T. A. B. HALL the feasibility of extending the scope of the inquiry, says the department. Tea cards or questionnaires will be distrbuted by each rural mail carrier on agricultural rowtes. Approximately 50,- 000 cards will be sent out. They have been prepared in simple form and can be filled out In & few minutes. ‘Where possi- ble, the mail carriers will fill in the an- swers 38 mads by the hog raisers. The cards will show the number of Sows far- rowed daring the jast six of 1921, the number farrowed during first six monthe of 1922 the number of sows far- rowsd or due to farrow during the last and the number bred ‘bred to farrow during six months of 1323, Numbers of from hog cholera or ing 1921 and 1922 will as the number of plgs The “importance of this survey to the farmers in enabling them to adjust their production to the probuble needs of the market is stressed by the department.
