VOLUME CLXX NUMBER TWENTY-SIX DETROIT, JUNE 30, lQZL GAIN live stock Feeders’ men of Michigan have made their an- Day a nual trip of inspec- Success tion to Michigan State College to learn the results of experiments by the Animal Husbandry Department in the feeding of horses, cattle, sheep, and hogs. Having attended these “Feed- ers’ Days” regularly since inaugurated, .We can state with assurance that the day is becoming more popular as well as more practical t0‘the men who keep animals for profit. We want to congratulate the college men having this work in charge. What a. boon this work is to the thoughtful farmer! Working alone, he ,could advance but little in definite knowledge of efficient production. But the opposite is true where the college and experiment station undertakes this work for all the producers in the state, conducting the experiments un- der the direction of competent men and in surroundings which give do pendable and satisfactory information. Fortunately the use of such mateL rial reacts favorably upon the feeder himself. So in this progress with better live stock methods, we improve the stock, the ways of feeding and handling, as well as the man ,who does the work; T the University Form Na- 0f Illinois last .. week the Master ‘tional Or- . _ Farmers’ Club of gamzatton America came into being.

Among the lines of work specially stressed is the further promotion of boys’ and girls’ work. Dean Mumford of the College of Agriculture of Illinois, and formerly head of the Department of Animal Husbandry of Michigan State College, in addressing representatives, ex- pressed the opinion that the Master Farmer movement promises to be one of the most helpful educational pro- grams launched in some time.

Mr. Meredith was well known among agricultural publishers and farmers for he was responsible for the success of several farm papers. He was also prominent in national politics, being Secretary of Agricul- ture during President. ’Wilson’s admin- istration and in 1924 a strong contend- er for the democratic presidential nomination. He was a worker for progressive policies and the cause of. prohibition. Mr. Meredith’s accomplishments re- main as silent reminders of a busy, constructive life. The country loses as asset when such a man dies. HE money Loss A due to the work of insects in the United States exceeds $2,000,000.000 annu- ally, according to C. C. McDonnell of the Department of Agriculture, nullifying the expended labor of 1,000,000 men. They destroy in their feeding from one-tenth to one-fifth of all the crops planted. It is also estimated that the losses due to plant diseases are comparable with those due to insects. Farm War In the war on insect pests and plant diseases, the farmers of the country use about 5,000,000 pounds of paris green, 20,000,000 to 27,000,000 pounds of lead arsenate, and 30,000,- 000 pounds of calcium arsenate. ' ‘ War is an expensive proposition, even on insects. Here’s a war in which there can be no peace, no limitation of armaments, but instead, constant fighting is a necessity. It involves a war tax from which there F. C. Bancroft, Delay The next ' is little notability, that yviil ever escape.'7 ' 'Chan‘ges I ing of the State .

Gardner, head of the Horticultural Department was chosen as the new Director of the Experiment Station, and C. B. Hill was made assistant.

N an address be Sees fore a large group Promisin of farm people in 3 Van Buren County Future recently, President Shaw of the Michigan State College expressed his firm be- lief in the future of agriculture in this state. He sighted that since 1920 the bank failures in Michigan have been few compared with the financial grief suffered in neighboring states. The stability of Michigan’s agriculture, in the opinion of President Shaw, is founded largely on the wide range of her agricultural interests. This prac- tice of growing many crops enables farmers to dispose of the bulk of their products to nearby consumers, and to plan farm programs that keep up the producing capacity of the soil. If any farmer, or group of farmers, can be given these two factors—a nearby market and a chance to grow larger and larger crops—chances for success are limited only by lack of . industry and managing ability.

Perrpzmtzon NCE in a. while now we get wea- ther that makes a fellow think maybe he’ll have a chance to sweat, or perspire as the professor says. It don’t make much difference what‘the professor calls it, it’s sweat just the same. They say that in order to be healthy a. fellow ought to have a good sweat once a. day, so I kin see that we farm- ers is goin’ to have a bunch of what you’d call healthy days acomin’. I kinda. feel sorry for those fellows in the city What’s gotta p ay’ to sweat ’cause, we farmers ’vo found out that it don’t pay to sweat. Sometimes , th e more you sweat the less you make. ' But these swivel chair cow boys settin’ behind mahogany desks makes their money without sweatin’ and spend it sweatin’. We farmers sweat all the time, workin’ and when taxes and. the bills come ,in. . One of the greatest exercises to bring a. sweat is to try to make both ends meet and not be able to do it. ' Now, aspiration is. different than perspiration. Aspiration is what you want and in most cases perspiration is what you have to do to get it. Now the Question is, is our aspiration worth the perspiration it will cause. If a fellow is what you call a. conserva- tionist, he kin nearly get his aspira- tion with little perspiration. It’s the way you do it. Some folkses work their heads off and don’t get nowhere and others work their heads, but not off, and get along pretty well. You noticed, maybe, that I said, “nearly get their aspirations.” If folkses is got real aspirations they never quite get them. They just kinda work toward them all the time. Those what is, working only toward gettin’ three square meals a. day and a place to sleep ain’t got no aspirations, they’re workin’ fer necessity. ‘ When I was writin’ thisthing out, - Sofie asks me “what ”I’m-3; sweatin’ about. I says I’m havin’ perspirations She says, ,“as. pirationll you mean asparagus. You don’t know what aspirations are. As- } pirations isn’t something to eat and asparagus is, and that’s what you’re interested in.” Well, I says, “speakin’ of aspirations, I notice you like “to chew the rag pretty well.” I said ’cause it ain’t' no use tryin' to argue with a. woman.

Speakingof Nathaniel Hawthorne, ,a distinguished writer says that one reason for his melan- choly was probably his extremely un— happy boyhood, from the shadows of fully emerged. bmrhood may have been was. He never complained of it,‘ and he always spoke with pride of his race. The Old Testament had been poured into him. He knew large por- ' tions of it by heart. It was the way the Jews had of keeping their , race strong and vigorous, and- of keeping it as a distinct race, which continues to this day. Said the old law, “These words, which I. command» thee this day, shall be upon thy heart, and thou shalt teach them dili- gently unto thy children." And they did exactly that. - Not longago I saw what this kind of teaching does, when appliedin our day. A hundred years ago, a' com- munity of farmers settled in New York, with common religious and cul- tural ideals. They built a little Bap- tist chilrch and then an academy. Several of the families seem to have been of superior stuff, people who had an ideal and who proceeded to. work and- wait for it. The young folks at- tended the academy and the church, and were otherwise influenced by the sincere Christian attitude of a number of the men in the community. The results have been astonishing. Out of that farming section, man after man has gone out to be a: leading figure in his profession. The- list in- cludes a governor or two; a United States senator, an‘ architect of na- tional reputation, a great evangelist, a philanthropist whose benefactioms touch many cities, more than one edu- cator, and scores of lesser known people who have Meet and- enriched the communities where they lived. Youth of the community have attend- ed sixty different colleges and uni- versities. The line of influence of this farming section extends to several cities in Europe. “Thou shalt teach them- diligently to thy children.” That is what this New York community did. It pays. It does the business. It was one of the great influences of Saul’s life. If we would get an idea 0‘ the strictness of the law, as taught to Jewish youth, we ought to read the book of Daniel. The three young men refused to eat of the royal food which was provided them. All the wine they wanted! And all the best meat, and fine pastry. “No,” said they, “Give us beans and plenty of cold water.” That was the old law, at its best. Saul had been brought up on that. i. Then, too, he was a Pharisee. That was an honor much coveted. That was one of the classes of the aristoc- racy. The Pharisees were hlghly patriotic,and they were noted for their zeal in, keeping the law. Saul says that in" the keeping of the law he was-blameless! He. did every- “thing.' observed everything. Every feast was observed, every ordinance received its due. Nothing “common or unclean” Was eaten. Added to this was the fact that Saul. was a'Roman citizen. When you and. I. are in some other country we are not ashamed to be known as Americans. We glory in, the fact. Saul was that way, whenever he spoke , It. protected him more than. once from rough handling, and even ,trom death' The famous guinea roads ”Stud eligerywhere, and passengers, . e ,wwene’every- hm $73M”! ,Mlen “was very .. i‘his’i’chsnce fmflmmfl , mam 0R I’ remember the Saul’s , happy. and probably liel was much more liberal in his views than most of the teachers of the. time. He said that the poor Gentiles should have the same rights in glean- ing fields after harvest as poor He- brews. He taughtalso that the Jews should greet Gentiles with the custom- ary “Peace be with you,” as if they were Jews. When Peter and the others were arrested, Gamaliel coun- selled his fellow judges to go slow in prosecuting them, lest they be found to be fighting against God. He made a deep impression on the future Christian missionary, although the future missionary was far from being one now. Strange as it may seem, Saul seemed to accept the stricter teach- ings of his sect, rather than the liberal teachings of Gamaliel. In some way the influences on the side of nar- rowness and zealous bigotry were stronger than the influences on the side of toleration and brotherhood. Such was the making of the greatest of the apostles. No one ‘can tell what possibilities a youth has. That is why dealing with young people is so intriguing.

Seems to be well and has tried everything that anyone has told her to do, but does not seem to help. Will you please let me know what to do? I am a Michigan Farmer subscriber.—L. A. E. These brown blotches usually indi- cate ill health and often show a poor condition of the blood. Such a pa- tient should have at leastone careful, thorough physical examination with especial reference to the quality of the blood. The patches are best re- moved as Nature makes her changes in the skin of one who builds up in health. ,There are local applications but they entail the use of a drug suf- ficiently strong to destroy the upper skin, such as Bichloride or Mercury, one part to 200 water. However, this may do serious damage if used incau- tiously and I advise leaving such ap- plications to the care of the doctor.

LOSSES CAUSED BY POOR PASTURES HE dairy farmers of this country lose millions of dollars each year during the months of July and Aug- ust. This loss is occasioned by the lack of sufficient feed. Plainly stated, our cows are starved out of millions of dollars of production during the hot weather period when the pastures are short and dry, the heat great, and the flies fierce. To bridge over this un- favorable period is a most important item. Pastures should be supple- mented by hay or silage, or both, for that matter. Some years ago I had an oppor- tunity to test out the value of silage and hay with pasture and was sur- prised to find that the cattle would out good rations of both, even during the month of June when the pasture was at its best. I also was surprised to find that the cost of producing milk was greatly lowered by this system of feeding; and having charge of the Experiment Station herd, I was able to get accurate data. The season was unusually warm, but with gener- ous spring rains we had good grass in May and June, though the latter part of June the grass began to fade. During Ju1y and AugUSt the cow’s average ration was ten pounds of sil- age and five pounds of hay with what pasture they could obtain during the day and night. A small grain ration was also fed. This was given in two feedings, at the time of milking. Com- paring this year with another year when the cows received only pasture and a. grain ration, we found that the production was considerably larger where” silage and hay were fed, and it was also produced at much lower cost, and with a saving of grain. The experiments that have been conducted at our various experiment stations, plainly point out the fact that to produce milk with economy, so far as the feeding is concerned, it is necessary to make the widest and best use of forage. It also has been clearly shown that the large produc- ers are the most economical produc- ers, and that liberal rations give the greatest profit. It is not economical to half-starve a cow or to deprive her of her necessary food for both main- tenance and production. Our Dairy Herd Improvement Asso— ciations are doing much to correct poor feeding methods and they are also obtaining valuable data showing that only by good feeding can profits be made. To allow dairy cows to shrink during the summer and early fall season means that they will be unprofitable winter producers. On most farms the cheapest forage can be produced in the form of silage made from corn or cane, and cow- keepers have found that it is profit- able to have a supply of this succu- lent food for both winter and summer feeding—A. L. Haecker. ‘ GOOD CATTLE IN DEMAND THERE seems to be a lively inter- est in our kind of dairy cattle. We have had several inquiries for young bulls. A man was here a few days ago and almost insisted on buy- ing one of our cows at a. price higher than we ever previously received. But because of this cow's pedigree, indi— viduaiity, and performance, we finally decided to keep her despite the tempt- ing offer. We tried to divert his at- tention to some likely pure-bred year- ling heifers that wo would scll,,but failed to interest him. Since martinis another breeder has told us that he ., s, .y. is coming over to look at these heif- ers. We hope that he doesn’t come too soon as they were among the bunch that we dehorned and so aren’t in the best condition to display to ad- vantage just at present. Too Much “Scotch” I shipped a pretty fair Milking Shorthorn cow this week because she had too much Scotch in her. No, ladies, I do not refer to anything to drink. I mean that she evidenced a. little-too much of the beef tendencies which must be guarded against in developing a. top-notch herd of Milk- ing Shorthorns. The beef Shorthorns are frequently referred to as “Scotch” as that canny tribe emphasized the beef characteristics in developing this popular breed. The cow in question might have paid for her feed for some weeks yet, but she somehow didn’t fit in With the rest of the herd and I thought they would look better without her. She will bring a good figure as she weighed 1,460 pounds at the lonia stockyards.—-—S. P. GUERNSEY BREEDERS MEET THE June meeting of the state association of Guernsey cattle breeders was held at Green Vale, Eastmanville, Ottawa County, the 'country home of Mr. Noyse Avery of Grand Rapids. more suitable been chosen. With a herd of 122 registered Guernseys containing some of the best blood of the breed, with the equip- ment necessary for the production of certified milk and the practical illus— tration. of its production at the even- ing milking, with a. 400-acre farm operated on a. plan for the mainten- ance of the herd, where could a farm- er Guernsey breeder find a. more in- teresting place for a meeting? There too the rare blending of the home and the dairy buildings with the land- scape, with Grand river as a back- ground, quickens ones’ esthetic sense. The entire arrangement of grounds as well as the type and quality of the buildings, shows not only taste for the beautiful but for the practical as well. The host entertained the breeders at luncheon and showed a fine spirit of neighborly good Will. He invited nearly the entire community, includ- ing the business men of Coopersville and their wives. Twelve people sat down to a. wonderful repast in the new tool house that might well pass for a. banquet hall. President John Endicott of Detroit, in his remarks at the close of the feast, complimented the Guernsey breeders on their fine spirit of co- operation and faith in the great Guernsey breed of dairy cattle. This spirit has served to popularize the breed, and its advancement will con- tinue to be rapid. He emphasized the fact that the breed is worthy of their continued faith and cooperation. Mr. Endicott introduced the speaker of the day, E. F. Westover, a. representa- tive of the national Guernsey associa- tion, who placed great emphasis on quality and color of Guernsey milk. That golden color should be kept con- tinually before the public. Golden Guernsey Milk should be the slogan of every breeder. If this breed char- acteristic is properly kept before the consuming public, there will be a. sale for every pound of Guernsey milk at advanced prices. An interesting educational feature For many reasons a, place could not have of the meeting was a. judging contest , for the breeders and their wives, each group judged independently, and the winner in each group was awarded a. prize of a. silver cream pitcher. Mr. Roy Cuff, of Parma, won the award in the men’s section, and Mrs. Geo. Loomis, of Jackson, in the women’s section. - Abigail, one of the Jersey cows in the herd of John T.

As there were two of us brothers, we usually kept our ducks separated and in pens, but each followed his particu- lar system of management. One year, my brother’s ducklings were feathering out and he was very proud of his flock. However, they started to Sit and sleep and would not eat is the ,danger sign. The interest- ing thing about the sickness was that 'my flock was healthy and did not show any signs of the sickness. This fact started us to wondering what the trouble was due to. After some time we discovered that the drinking vessels used in my brother’s flock were not deep enough to permit the ducks to get their beaks in far enough. Ducks must have the holes in the nostrils washed cleanly or they will take colds which will eventually run into pneumonia. An- other factor, which I was considering in raising‘my ducklings, was provid- ing dry, clean roosting quarters. Ex- perience proves that ducks take their colds through their feet and legs. If these are kept warm, one does not need to worry about the ducks be- coming chilled.—-H. Q. H. POTASSIUM PERMANGANATE FOR TURKEYS I am having my first experience in turkey raising and would like to know if it is necessary to give the poults the same drl'nk constantly without any change, in order to be suCCessful with them. We have been giving them water with potassium permanganate in and two of the poults were poisoned I fed them a little milk and they came out all right. Would it be all right to give them some cows’ milk separate from clear water or would it be best to simply continue the solution alone? If so, how long should we continue it ?—Mrs. F. R. I would give the young turkeys both milk and water to drink but would potassium permanganate, especially if they do not drink it readily. Some- times the‘ turkeys .- may dislike the water containing the disinfectant and refuse to drink it, especially after rains when small puddles are avail- able in depressions on the ,ground. At such times they may drink water contanr'nated with droppings carrying the germs of blackhead. It is almost impossible to keep turkeys from drinking water from the ground after a. rain and they are the most apt to drink such water if they dislike the supply in the regular fountains. I presume that the potassium perman- ganate is used in the water as a dis- infectant to prevent the spread of colds and blackhead. It is only a mild disinfectant and while it often prevents the spread of colds it is hardly strong enough to prevent blackhead if the turkeys have access to contaminated feed or rain water. It is most useful when the poultry are confined and have access to no other supply. POULTRY SHORT COURSE HE fourth annual poultry Short course will be held at.
