WATCH THERMOMETER CLOSELY
IN AN ARTIFICIAL BROODER
Although brooding- with hens is the
easiest and. simplest method of brood
ing, artificial brooders are necessary
where winter or very early spring
chicks are raised, where only non
sitting b cods of poultry are kept, or
where large numbers of chickens are
to be raised artificially. To operate
a brooder or hover so as to insure
comfort ano. safety for the chicks
requires vi.remitting care on the part
of the poultry man.
Temperature in Brooder
The best temperature at which to
keep a brooder or hover depends upon
many things—the position of the
thermometer, the style of the hover,
the age of the chickens, and the
weather conditions. Aim to keep the
chickens comfortable. As the opera
tor learns by the of the
chickens the amount of heat they
require, he can discard the ther
mometer if he desires.
When too cold the chickens will
crowd together and try to get nearer
the heat. If if is found in the morn
ing that the droppings are well scat
tered under the hover it is an indi
cation that the chickens have had
enough heat. If the chickens are
comfortable at night they will be
spread out under the hover with the
heads of some protruding from un
der the hover cloth. Too much heat
will cause them to pant and gasp and
sit around with their mouths open.
It is impossible to state for each
case at which temperature the brood-,
ers should b-j kept to raise) young
chickens; however, It will ivn from
90 to 100 degrees in some cases, as
some broods of chickens seem to re
quire more heat than others. The
average Is 93 to 95 degrees for the
first week or ten days, when the
temperature is gradually reduced to
85 degrees for the following ten days,
and then lowered to 70 or 75 degrees
for as long as the chickens need heat.
This depends somewhat on the sea
son of the year and the number of
the chickens, as it can be readily
seen that the heat generated by fifty
chickens would raise the temperature
under the hover to a higher degree
than the heat given off by a lesser
number, consequently the amount of
heat furnished by the lamp or stove
will have to be regulated accordingly.
As the chickens grow larger and
need less heat, the lamps may be
used only at night, and later only
on cold nights, say poultry specialists
in the United States department of
agriculture. Care should be taken
to prevent - chilling or overheating
the chickens, as it weakens them and
may result in bowel trouble.
Weed a Cool Place, Too
Chickens need a cool place for
scratching and exercising, in addi
tion to heat. Indoor brooders and
hovers can be used successfully in
most sections of the country in un
heated brooder houses except dur
ing the coldest weather. Outdoor
brooders usually have a cool com
partment for exercising, where the
chickens are fed in cold, stormy
weather. If winter chickens are be
ing raised, it. is advisable to heat
the brooder house to a temperature
of 60 to 70 degrees, regardless of
the temperature of the hover, which
often requires placing brooder pipes
around the outside walls of the
brooder house.
The need of this heat depends en
tirely upon the brooding system and
the weather conditions; but it is ab
solutely necessary that the heat be
kept at the desired temperature un
der the hover. Brooders and hovers
should have from one-half to two
inches of sand, dry dirt, cut clover,
or chaff spread over the floor and
in the brooder-house pen. The hov
ers should be cleaned frequently, as
cleanliness is essential in raising
chickens successfully.
When chickens are first put into
the brooder they should be confined
under or around the hover by placing
a board or wire frame a few inches
outside. This does not apply, how
ever, to the small outdoor colony
brooders. The fence or guard should
be moved gradually farther away
from the hover and discarded entire
ly when the chickens are three or
four days old or when they have
learned to return to the source of
heat.
Young chickens should be closely
watched to see that they do not hud
dle together or get chilled. They
should be allowed to run on the
ground whenever the weather is fa
vorable, as they do much better there
than when kept continuously on ce
ment or board floors. Weak chick
ens should usually be killed as soon
as noticed, as they rarely make good
stock, while they may become car
riers of disease. Brooders should
be disinfected at least once a year,
and more frequently if the chickens
brooded in them -have had any dis
ease.
Summer Squashes
Require Plenty of Heat;
Look Out for Insects
CLEMSON COLLEGE, May.—Five
or six hills of summer suashes
three or foui- feet apart will pro
duce enough squashes for the aver
age family. Sumer squashes re
quire plenty of heat and should not
be planted until the ground is rea
sonably warm. If possible the hills
should be made up a week or two in
advance of planting the seed, a lit
tle well-rotted manure and a ta
blespoonful of fertilizer being thor
oughly mixed with the soil of each
hill. Plant about seven or eight
seeds to the hill, cover one-half inch
deep, and thin to three or four.
Young -squash seedlings are some
times attacked by the striped cu
cumber beetle, but it is an easy mat
ter to protect a few hills by covering
each one with a small piece of. wire
fly screen until the plants are ten
days or two weeks old.
Cucumbers should be planted and
handled in the same manner as the
squashes. Two or three hills will
furnish enough cucumbers for the
average family, unless a large sup
ply is desired for pickles.
Muskmelons require plenty of
space, and so should be placed only
in the large garden. Ten hills of
Rocky Ford muskmelons, spaced five
feet apart will generally supply
muskmelons for the average family.
However, the season of production
is comparatively short. The culture
is the same as for the squashes and
cucumbers. It is well to give them
a little additional fertilizer scattered
within two or three feet of the hills
at the time that the plants are being
cultivated. The same precautions as
to insects must be taken as with
squashes and cucumbers. A little
dry road dust or powdered lime
sprinkled over and around the plants
may keep the bugs away, but the
safest rrfethod is to cover them with
the wire fly screen or with cheese
cloth. i
Prune and Stake
Tomatoes, It Pays;
Don’t Decay So Fast
CLEMSON' COLLEGE, May.—
Many of the best home gardeners fol
low the practice of pruning and
stalking tomatoes. Does it pay to
prune the vine to a single stem and
tie them to stakes or trellises? This
is the question which many home
gardeners ask every year. It does
pay, according to George P. Hoff
mann. extension service horticultur
ist, especially if the garden space is
limited. Tomato plants left to them
selves have a hadn’t of spreading all
over the garden and producing their
fruit right on the ground where it be
comes covered with dirt every time
it rains, and is much more subject'
to decay.
The chief advantages of pruning
and staking tomatoes are:
1. A large number of plants can
be set on the given area.
2. The tomatoes -’ill ripen a lit
tle earlier when ’’i.uits are pruned
and staked.
3. The fruit is kept off the
ground, is clean, easy to gather, and
less likely to decay.
4. The uality of the fruit is
usually better on plants that are I
pruned and staked.
It is true that individual plants
pruned and staked do not produce
so large a quantity' of tomatoes as
when allowed to run on the ground,
but two or three times as many
plants can be set on the given area,
thereby actually increasing the
quantity of tomatoes produced from
that area.
H. S. Saturday
Service League
AUBURN, Ala., April 23.—1 t will
be recalled that during the war a
movement was started in Alabama by
the negro agents of the Alabama ex
tension service looking to the volun
tary abandonment of the Saturday
holiday by the negro farmers of the
south. A systematic plan of registra
tion of all who would promise to work
six days in the week for a certain
definite period was adopted, the
movement having the indorsement not
only of the Alabama extension serv
ice, but of the state council of de
fense.
In a circular which has just been
issued by the Alabama extension
service, T. M. Campbell, district dem
onstration agent, Tdskegee institute,
Alabama, estimates that under this
plan 60,000 negroes worked at least
twenty-one continuous Saturdays,
equal to adding, 840,000 men to the
productive forces of the south, in
creasing the value of products raised
about $5,000,000.
So effective and successful was
this work in the war emergency that
it has been decided to continue the
U. S. Saturday Service league during
peace times, with the slogan. “By
working six days you helped win the
war; keep it up now and you will
win prosperity.’’ The plan includes
the formation of local branches of
the principal organization, with a def
inite membership, meeting regularly
and stimulating each other in the
aims and purposes of the organiza
tion.
Keep the Garden at Work
By the exercise of care and fore
thought in planning succession crops
and rotations and by the utilization
of every foot of suitable available
space it is possible to grow consid
erable quantities of vegetables on
limited areas and so supplement the
family food supply. The principal,
factors in accomplishing this are
the use of seed boxes and hotbeds to
give plants an early start in spring
before seeds may be planted out
doors, the use of outside seed beds
to carry plants for main-season
crops while early erdps are occupy
ing the garden space, and the plant
ing of late or succession crops as
soon as earlier plants have been re
moved.
The United States department of
agriculture believes that the home
gardet) is just as essential this year
as it was during the war years and
is offering the advice of practical
scientific gardeners in helping to
solve the problems of those who want
to cultivate home gardens. |
A Bushel of Corn
The laws of most of the 4 states
recognize 70 pounds of ears or 56
pounds of shelled corn as a bushel
of corn. These weights are reliable,
says the United States department of
agriculture, when the ears or shell
ed corn contain only 15 per cent of
water. About one-third the weight
of ear corn a« customarily harvest
ed in the northern states is water, |
while that harvested in the drier;
sections of the south contains less
than 15 per cent of water. 1
USE OF HOME-MADE DEVICES
SWELLS POULTRY PROFITS
In a certain small town which needs
no name, live William Black and
John Smith. They are next-door
neighbors and good friends, al
though totally unlike in temperament
and disposition. Last year both of
them became convinced of the value
of a back-yard poultry flock and each
decided to install chickens in his own
spacious back yard to supply his
family with eggs and broilers.
Mr. Black is the type of man who
always quotes when any one lifts an
eyebrow at some of his extravagant
purchases, “that the best is always
cheapest in the end.” Mr. Smith, on
the other hand, believes that often
a cheaper article will serve the pur
pose equally well and that the dif
ference in cost looks well in his sav
ings account book.
Standardbred Fowls Selected
When it came to selecting a flock
Mr. Smith and Mr. Black were agreed
that standardbred fowls would more
than pay for their Increased initial
expense by producing more eggs than
would mongrels, so they arranged
with a local chicken strain. He was
to deliver the birds as soon as ac
commodatins were ready fr them.
On the matter of housing, the pros
pective poultry keepers held widely
divergent views. Mr. Black hired a
carpenter at $6 a day to erect for
him a good-looking, nicely finished
poultry house. When the last coat of
paint was on it truly was, as his
high school son declared it to be, “a
work of art.”
A house so perfectly finished de
marqled the best of equipment, and
Mr. Black bought it. The number
of things which he discovered, with
the aid of a salesman, that a proper
ly brought up flock of chickens should
have was amazing to his family and
depleting to his purse.
Mr. Smith, on the other hand, de
cided that he could his own
poultry house with the aid of his son.
He procured two piano boxes and
some smaller packing cases and they
set to work. Both were handy with
tools, and in a short time the piano
boxes had been .converted into a com
fortable. sanitary domicile for the
chickens.
The piano-box house had been lo
cated in a corner of the yard where
the fence which was already there
WHAT YOU NEED TO START IN SQUAB
RAISING BUSINESS, WITH RESULTS
The back-yard poultry keeper can
hardly hope for success with tur
keys, geese, ducks or guineas, but
for those who have lofts over a ga
rage, stable or coal shed the op
portunity for squab growing is well
worth considering.
For food purposes pigeons are
usually classed with poultry. Cul
turally they are in a class by
themselves, producing meat only,
producing it very quickly, and able
to produce well under conditions that
do not admit of growing any other
creature used for food.
While the ideal arrangement for
pigeons is to have their house on
the ground, and a small covered
yard, called a “fly,” connecting with
it, pigeon keeping may be carried
on quite extensively in upper rooms,
or lofts, with or without open-air
flys. Many flocks of pigeons are
kept in large cities in quarters pro
vided for them in the lofts or on
the roofs of buildings used for mer
cantile and manufacturing pur
poses.

“Market Rabbits Shot in Drives;”
Wild Rab bit Meat Is Good to Eat
Besides 'killing approximately 35,-
000 jack rabbits which were in
jurious to crops, the rabbit “drives”
which have taken place in eastern
Washington during recent months
have helped to lessen living costs
by putting on the market a consid
able amount of rabbit meat. The
Biological Survey of the United
States department of agriculture,
under whose supervision the drives
were conducted, foupd on investiga
tion that there was a good demand
for wild-rabbit meat. Trial ship
ments made to seven markets in
dicated that white-tailed rabbits
would bring the shipper about $2.50
Reduced Food Production Threatened
Serious risk of reduced food pro
duction this year because of high
wages demanded by farm laborers,
high cost of farm equipment and
supplies, and because of pronounced
movement of people from the farms
to the cities is Indicated by reports
and letters that are reaching the
United States department of agri
culture from many sections of the
country.
The most definite of these reports
come from New York state, where
records of the population on 3,775
representative farms on February t
this year and February 1 a year ago
were made by federal and state
workers. It was disclosed that dur
ing the past year the number of
people on these farms decreased
nearly 3 per cent and the number of
hired men decreased more than 17
per cent. If the same ratio holds for
all farms in the state about 35.000
men and boys left farming to go inlo
other industries, while only about
11,000 have changed from other in
dustries to farming. This is a more
rapid movement from the farms to
other industries than took place in
the early part of the war.
The same conditions in varying
degrees exist in all sections, accord
ing to the federal bureau of crop es
timates. although they are not so
acute farther from industrial cen
ters.

Take Care of Summer Milk
The season of sour milk has ar
rived, and it will <?ost the country
a great deal of money between now
and frost. Milk sours, and the
family can not use it. Milk goes to
the cheese. In either case, the
dairyman loses the price of the- milk,
and the country loses that much good
food.
The remedy is ice and steam, say
dairy specialists of the United
States department of agriculture.
Keep the milk clean and cool. Steril
ize all the utensils. If you can not
get ice, use the coldest water avail
able in the tanks in which the cans
of milk are kept. If steam is not
available, do the best you can with
boiling water. See the county
agent, or write to the- United States
department of agriculture at Wash
ington, for information on how to
do it.
Rural Hauling as Side Line
Many of the motor trucks on farms
adjacent to large cities are not loan
ed to full capacity on their trips to
the city. Few farmers have their
business so arranged as to permit
the use of the truck to its maxi
mum capacity regularly. Many such
farmers, according to the United
States department of agriculture,
have gradually begun to haul a part
or all of their neighbors’ products to
market, and in some cases this prac
tice has led to the establishment of
a regular route. Some farmers
have been enabled to purchase
trucks, because their own business,
coupled with that of their neigh
bors’, has been sufficient to war
rant such an Investment.
Salt the Fleas to Death
Last year was an unusually bad
year for fleas about houses. The time
is again at hand when, though the
voice of the flea may not be heard in
the land, his tickling will be felt in
the flesh—unless the simple prevent
ive is applied. Fleas usually get
into the house from the basement or
some place where dogs or other ani
mals have slept. Make a thorough
clean-up. Then sprinkle the floor
well with salt and wet it down—not
wet enough to cause it to run. It
may be necessary to repeat this
treatment two or three times at in
tervals of about three days.
would serve for two sides of the
yard. A few posts and some chicken
netting completed the inclosure.
Quick-growing vines were planted and
soon screened the yard and poultry
house from view and the little shed
served its purpose well. All the
equipment fo'r house and yard was
made also from the useful packing
box.
Both flocks were given good care
and did well and the Black and Smith
families enjoyed the strictly fresh
poultry products. At the end of the
year, however, Mr. Black declared
that only a rich man could afford to
keep poultry in the city. He was
discussing the subject with . Mr.
Smith; “Os course, strictly fresh
eggs taste better than any you can
buy, but heavens, man," their cost!
All we had cost me about $2 a dozen,
not to mention my work in caring
for the flbek. No, sir, no more back
yard pou’try keeping for me. I can’t
afford it.”
Then Mr. Smith spoke up; “Your
trouble is that of many others who
go into poultry raising. You spent
too much on the house and equip
ment. Nests made out of orange
boxes or coops made out of barrels
may not look as elegant as those you
can buy but they serve their purpose
and cost almost nothing. My ac
counts show that the eggs my flock
produced cost us much less than we
could have bought them on the mar
ket, for aside from the flock itself,
you see I had little capital invested
in the project.”
“I guess you are about right,” said
Mr. Black, “but I do like everything
around my place to be well built.”
“So do'l,” retorted Mr. Smith, “but
until I have a larger income I fear
I can’t have everything I want.
When I built that shack over there
for my chickens,” he continued, “I
didn’t have any guide to go by, but
the other day I picked up a United
States department of agriculture
farmers’ bulletin that tells all
about back-yard poultry keeping, and
it gives instructions about making
just such a house as I made. I see
they recommend inexpensnve hous
ing for back-yard flocks. It is bulle
tin No. 889 and anyone can get it
without cost by writing for it. Wish
I had had a copy when' I built, for it
would have proven mighty helpful.”
erect will accommodate eight to ten
pairs of pigeons for squab breeding,
the poultry specialists in the United
States department of agriculture say.
The birds mate and begin breeding
when six to seven months old. /The
male shares with the hen the duty
of incubation. The young hatch in
about seventeen days. At four weeks
old average squabs will weigh about
three-quarters of a pound each. Some
of the larger ones will weigh over
a pound at that age.
A good pair of breeders will pro
duce six or seven or m6re pairs of
squabs a' year. As many as eleven
pairs of squabs have been produced
by one pair in a year. When produc
tion is high the female lays and be
gins incubation while she has young
still in the nest, leaving the care of
them to her mate.
Raising squabs has been increas
ing in cities in recent years. On
farms the tendency has been the
other way. On a farm a flock of
free pigeons, ff not kept down by
killing off the increase, soon be
comes a nuisance, destroying grain
and doing a great deal of damage,
especially on new-seeded ground.
a dozen and black-tailed rabbits
about 50 cents less. Persons desirous
of marketing rabbits were advised
that those which had been* shot were
preferred to those which had been
harried and killed by clubbing, and
that the carasses should bd drawn
as soon as possible after they had
been cooled. The sales made the
past season were chiefly in Spokane.
Portland, Seattle, and Takoma. Con
siderable interest is being shown in
the proposal to further extend sale
of jack-rabbis meat by trapping the
animals in inclosures, properly bait
ed. and supplying certain markets
with shipments of a definite size
at stated intervals.
cable in some degree in every part
of the country, is that farm wages
this year will average 14 per cent
higher than they were at the begin
ning of the war. Estimates from 350
f-rmers in all parts of New York
stfite indicate that experienced farm
help, hired by the month, will be
paid about $52 a month and
board, as compared with $45.50 last
year. Experienced married men, not
boarded but provided with a house
and farm products, are expected to
receive on the average about $68.50
a month in cash as compared with
S6O last year.
Numerous letters to the depart
ment of agriculture from its field
workers or from farmers indicate a
widespread disposition to cut down
plantings so that the work of culti
vating can be attended to by the
farmer himself or by members of
his family. The assertion that farm
ers cannot pay the high wages de
manded in competition with other in
dustries and make a profit on their
products is frequently made. Many
farmers also declare it is unfair to
them to be under the necessity of
working ten, twelve or more hours
a day when the tendency in other
industries is toward a shorter work
ing day, and a decreased output.

1915, when shipments ceased. Os this 6,460,-
700 Tons consisted of
KAINIT
which the cotton grower knew was both a plant
food and a preventive of blight and rust, —with
it came also 1,312,400 Tons of
20 per cent
MANURE SALT
which has the same effects on Cotton, but which was
used mainly in mixed fertilizers.
Shipments of both Kainit and Manure Salt have
been resumed but the shortage of coal and cars and
high freight rates make it more desirable to ship
Manure Salt, which CONTAINS 20 PER CENT OF
ACTUAL POTASH, instead of Kainit, which con
tains less than 13 per cent actual Potash.
MANURE SALT can be used as a side dressing
on Cotton in just the same way as Kainit and will
give the same results. Where you used 100 pounds
of Kainit, you need to use but 62 pounds of Manure
Salt, or 100 pounds of Manure Salt go as far as 161
pounds of Kainit.
MANURE SALT has been coming forward in
considerable amounts and cotton growers, who can
not secure Kainit, should make an effort to get
Manure Salt for side dressing to aid in making a big
Cotton Crop.
Muriate of Potash
50 per cent actual Potash, has been coming forward
also, I—loo 1 —100 pounds of Muriate are equivalent to 400
pounds of Kainit or 250 pounds of Manure Salt.
These are the three
Standard GERMAN Potash Salts
that were always used in making cotton fertilizers
and have been used for all these years with great
profit and WITHOUT ANY DAMAGE TO THE
CROP.
The supply is not at present as large as in former
years, but there is enough to greatly increase the
Cotton Crop if you insist on your dealer making the
necessary effort to get it for you.
