For more than thirty years the weather bureau of the United States Department of Agriculture has been un earnest advocate of the protection of bulldings and other property against lightning by suitable rodding. The bureau is frequently called upon to advise Inquirers concerning the proper methods and materials to be employed. Occasionally plans are drawn up in detail for the protection of government structures, In 1010 the White House was rodded after plans and specifications prepared by Professor Marvin, Study of Losses, To determine the relative lability of farm buildings to fire damage by lightning, a study of lightning fire losses was made recently by the weather bureau of the United States Department of Agriculture. The av- erage annual loss for the whole | United States is a little over $12,000, 000 which is probably a conservative | figure. Illinois has the unenviable | first place, with an average annual | loss®of over a million dollars, part of | which may be attributed to industrial sections, Texas Is next in order be- cause of its large area and the pres. ence of highly inflammable oil-storage tanks. New York is third, for reasons similar to those affecting Illinois. Losses in North, In the highly developed agricul. tural states of the North heavy losses | are suffered, especially through de | structive eyvelonie thunderstorms.

This means It will be necessary to practice economy In feeding. The live stock keeper, as a rule, loses or galing ac | cording to his knowledge and method of feeding. Silage I= the best substitute for both hay and pasture and it should be used to the limit. The cheapest forage is in the form of silage and as it is a bulky ratien it should be grown on the farm and supplied In Hberal quan- tities. Stage will lower the cost of the ra- tion, make sure a profit from the live stock and greatly Increase the value of the grops. As a rule, a silo will pay for itself the first year. What other farm Investment will pay 100 per cent? Competition now demands economical feeding. # Green Corn Bad for Hogs Avoid feeding green corn to hogs It gives them Indigestion. Green corn when fed to hogs will dower their re- gistance and make them susceptible to hog cholera, Many persons believe that green corn Is a direct cause of hog cholera, This Is impossible since the disease is caused by a virus, The connection between green corn and hog cholera is a cqineidence bedause hog cholera is more widespreatl st this time of the year, but green corn is a factor. .

Continuing its spread, long. prophe- sled by the bureau of entomology of the United States Department of Agriculture, the Mexican bean beetle has extended Its range eastward in Virginip to Craig and Carroll coun- ties, being now nearly half way across the state. In West Virginia it had advanced from the southwestern bor- der of the state eastward to Marshall, Tyler and Wetzel counties, covering about three-quarters of the state. In Indiana it is only found along the southeastern border of the state In Floyd, Clark and Jefferson counties, In Kentucky it extends over prac- tically the entire eastern two-thirds of the state, In Ohlo about the south- ern three-quarters of the states is In- fested, Infestations ranging as far west as the southwestern corner of the state in Butler and Hamilton counties, and northward to Hancock, Wayne gnd Tuscarawas counties. It has just invaded southwestern Penn- and Green counties. In Wyoming the pest has extended (ts range 80 miles north of las year's infestation, The seriousness of this pest has been frequently described and there seems but little that can be done to The department recommends mag- nesium arsenate spray or dust as the most promising control measure, hut advises plowing under heavily infest. ed fields as soon as the crop is off.
