Several years ago a group of native cows was purchased as a foundation for tests in beef raising. These animals were undersized and showed evidence in their markings that they were at most but one de gree removed from the poorest type of the scrub dam. A pure bred Here' ford of the very best strain was plac ed at the head of the het-d. The progeny from crossing this sire on native cows was a revelation to many. In a single generation such a trans formation was brought about as to deem almost unbelievable. The Here ford, as all know, is red and white in fcolor, and has other characteristic SPRAY FOR SAN JOSE SCALE. T. H. McHatton, Professor of Horticulture. Question—When would you spray for San Jose scale? The orchards should be sprayed with concentrated lime and sulphur in November. 801 140 pounds stone lime, 80 lbs. sulphur and 50 gallons wa ter together one hour, contributing water as it bolls off to have an even fifty gallons at the end. Test with a hydrometer that can be secured at a drug store, to see if it stands 25 to 30 degrees baume, or if specific gravi ty is shown on hydrometer, to see if it tests from 1-2003 to 1.2603. Make tests by floating hydrometer In liquid. For use in spraying for San Jose scale dilute the liquid with water until hydrometer reads 4 1-2 to 5 degrees baume or 1.035 specific gravity. If hydrometer can not be se cured, boil 15 pounds sulphur, 15 pounds lime with 50 gallons water steadily for one hour, keeping up to 50 gallons by contributing water to offset evaporation. Strain and apply while warm, with spray pump. If badly 'infested make two applications., one in November and one in Febru ary. If only one application is need ed Is preferable. types of soil. W. M. Worsham, Professor Chemistry. Inquiry—Do the same types of soils vary much in plant food contents? Inquiry—Do the same types of soil has received in cultivation or. the amount, of erosion to which the land is subjected are ''actors most l'kely to change its character. "““'Machine p JOSEPH L.

The transmission of the regulation color markings to the progeny was very noticeable. But this was not all, lor the calves show ed a blockiness and squareness in conformation, a relative shortness ol limb and a spring of rib and depth of body remarkably like their sire. A generation of calves the progeny of heifers from the first cross has now been developed, and in many in stances these animals so closely re semble the pure-bred that it is doubt ful if many experts could tell the difference. It should be borne In mind in this connection that the cat tle in question have never had any special feed, and care, but have been maintained under ordinary farm con ditions advisedly. SALT OF NO VALUE IN CURING HAY. John R. Fain, Professor Agronomy. Question —Is salt of any value in curing hay or when used in- storing silage? While salt has curative properties, It is doubtful if there is %ny value whatever in salting hay when placed in the barn. It has no value in the silo. Hay should be cured thorough ly in the field. / To Determine Need of Lime. Question —What practical test can a farmer make to determine the need of lime in the soil? Litmus paper can be bought at any drug store. It’s color is blue. After being placed In the soil and damp ened allow to remain 15 minutes, if its color has changed to pink, there is need of lime.
