Qr .-nox. ‘Yliut is t);c bij.it plan to
get lice oil of hogs f
A:,web. —The simplest plan to got
i rid of lice is t put common kerosene on
y-ur hog*. The easiest way to do this
Is to feed tho hogs m a fence corner on
ehellod corn, and while they aro eating,
by standing, on the fence you can
sprinkle them all with korosine from a
common watering pipe. This will not
only rid them of lice, but will clean
their Kirin* of all scurf, and dandruff.
Bo a little careful about the applica
tion of the kerosene, as a too liberal uso
of it, will kiil tin: pigs. The best way is
to apply in lie -deration and renew it in

to try Idnf following plan, which is said
to have lion entirely successful, and
certainly mors practi- and on larger lU'oas
than digging tip tin routs: The plan is
simply to shave off the surface growth
close to tin: ground, repeating the pro
cess as last as the grass attains a height
of ii or n inches. At first it will reap

after the third or fourth cutting' its vigor
will diminish and if will liiiatly cease to

An.-. .vi:u. --Jolunou grass makes most

I cut for hay bofora going to seed, for
then tlie leaves and stems arc too course
and woody for use. It should bn cut
whoo yoniig, say when about two feet
barb, and can be cut several times dur
ing the season. With all (bat can he
paid in its favor 1 advise yon not to
plant it, from tho simple fact thatwhen
| ouco it gets a foot hpld it is almost im
pfi- iblo to eeuli' ato it, or to koep it from
spi’eadint; over your own ami neighbor
ing farms There arojsoiu". who still ad
vocate tlie planting of tiiis grass because
of the large yield and excellent quality
of tho hay, Wit -there are more who
| would cheerfully pay a reward to have
every vestige of this grass removed
from tlmir farms. It is claimed that it
can bo eradicated by “pasturing it closely
1 through tlie summer and then in the
fall with a big plow turn up tlie roots to
tho winter freezes, renewing the plow
ing ojico or twice during tho wintor aud
then plant and cultivate, a hoed crop on
the land tho following spring.”
My own opinion is that when once it
gets a good foothold on a farm it is
practically impossible to got rid of it,
find aim, st equally impossible to keep it
from spreading over the surrounding
country. If you havo bottom lands li
able to annual overflow, where no other
crop is certain, you might put it iu
Johnson grass for a permanent meadow,
and if you will take the troublo to pi"

confine it -■ ibo u--id you wish to devote
