SHEEP EXHIBITS AT COUNTY FAIR Extension Worker Makes Educa- tional Display, Attracting Much Interest. IMPROVED METHODS SHOWN Beginners Shown Advisability of Using Western Ewes as Foundation Stock-~Farmers Realize Value of Pure-Ored Sire. (Prepared by the United States Depart. ment of Agriculture.) That thé county fair is a fertile fleld for carrying on extension work has been demonstrated in the upper penin- sula of Michigan by Duncan L. Me Millan, extension specialist in sheep husbandry of the United States de- partment of agriculture, co-operating with the Michigan College of Agricul: ture. During the recent county fair genson Mr. McMillan displayed a novel sheep exhibit, prepared strictly on ed- ucational lines, at five local fairs. The object of the display was to demon- strate Improved methods in handling and breeding sheep to farmers al- ready in the business, and to stimu- late and assist others in getting start { ed properly. It illustrated to begin- ners the advisability of using western ewes as foundation stock and erossing them with purebred rams of the black- | faced breeds to build and grade up i flocks, Make-Up of Exhibit. The exhibit was made up of several pens of sheep, including one of west- ern ewes brought in from the range | this year, and others of first, second and third crosses of western ewes and pure-bred rams. One pen of Angora goats was used to demonstrate their brush-clearing ability by placing quan- titles of brush in such fashion as to make the goats climb for it. Milk goats were also Included in the exhib- it. The sheep in the exhibit were used for special judging demonstra- i tions and In illustrating the more im- portant points to be considered In se lecting breeding stock and culling the flock.

Realizing the importance of good i seed corn as an essential in Increasing | production, and knowing that fall-se | lected seed corn is best, county agents | have directed considerable effort in seed-corn selection and testing cam- paigns. Three hundred and fifty-four agents assisted 63.813 farmers last year in the 33 Northern and Western states In fallselecting seed corn, and more than a million additional acres were planted with fall-selected corn re- sulting from work of the agents dur ing the previous fall. Assistance was given to 36,588 farmers In the testing of seed corn, resulting in 040,563 addi. tional acres being planted with tested | seed, The agents conducted extension campaigns to encourage seed corn se lection in the fall and seed-corn test- ing in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michi- gan and Pennsylvania, : CULTIVATE TO KILL WEEDS Necessary Moisture and Plant Food Utilized at Expense of Important Food Crops, { quarters, preferably without much { range, for by running over pastures | they may come in contact with con- i tagion.

The results of a large number of tests conducted by the University of Missouri College of Agriculture show that manure applied to corn land un- der Missourl conditions at the rate of eight loads per acre has given an aver- age increase of 10.4 bushles during the season following its application.
