To an inquiry Prof. W. H. Pew of the Iowa Agricultural college gives the following suggestions on feed- ing buttermilk to hogs: Buttermilk when free from water, used for washing the butter, makes excellent feed for hogs. The great trouble as we find it, coming from the creameries is that it is hard to determine how much excess water is contained in it. At the present price for feeds, I think you will be very safe in paying 20 cents per 100 pounds for buttermilk that is free from excess of water. In regard to the way it is fed, I may say that for sows that are nursing young pigs, it should be fed in very small quantities, if at all, and would suggest ‘diluting it. Better re- sults would be had if the buttermilk is not put into the ration until the pigs are at least four or five weeks old. It is particularly good for grow- ing pigs, as well as fattening hogs. The show farrows at this college are always fed and finished on corn and buttermilk. A good ration for the sows that are nursing pigs of any age when no trouble will be had from scouring, would be as follows: Cornmeal, one part; bran, two parts, with butter milk three to four pounds for each pound of grain mixture, Corn and buttermilk afford a very good ration for fattening hogs For growing pigs it might be of advantage to make a slop of shorts and butter- milk and feed corn on the ear be- sides. EXCELLENT FOR THE LAMBS Wheatbran !s Good Feed for Young- sters to Begin On—Give Abun- dance of Pasture If Possible, A good flockmaster holds that for ‘young lambg, wheatbran is most ex- ‘cellent to begin with, and after they become stronger the bran should be mixed with corn meal in equal quar- ters. He says that oat meal, or oats ‘when they can eat it, should be add- ed to balance the ration, for oats is nearly a balanced food itself. After ‘growing a little they will shell their ,0wWn corn, if given to them on the cob. The lambs that are to be raised on -the farm should not be forced so fast. They need plenty of food, but the ;grain ration should be small and no ‘corn should be used. They should be ;&lven plenty of exercise and an abun- strumental in bringing about 34 con- victions for horse poisoning in the past year. An autopsy revealed that Mrs. Mackay, widow of the Rev.

Tom O'Rourke, manager of the Na- tional Sporting Club of New York City, has cabled an offer of $10,000 to Carpentier, the French heavyweight champion, to box Porky Flynn in New York on January 29. Hereafter the New York and New Jersey League, which had its birth a year ago and enjoyed a successful season, will be operated under a new name, the Eastern League.

We know how Chestnut Weevil—Bean Weevil One of the most damaging pests of chestnut is the weevil, the larva of chestnut. Belonging to the same family of insects is the bean weevil, and since no effective treatment has yet been discovered to prevent the infestation by weevils of chestnuts and beans, we must depend upon their destruction by fumigation or heating. A letter by Dr. Surface, State Zoolo gist, to a correspondent on this sub- ject gives the details of the methods of doing this. The letter is as follows: ‘‘Replying to your letter asking how to keep chestnuts from getting wormy I must say that if any man were able to answer this question he would have the means of making his * fortune. That is the greatest question difficulty at present before chestnut growers, and in fact, the chestnut worm or wee- vil is the chief reason why chestnut cul- ture has not been, and is not successful in this State. One of the pioneer chest- nut growers, both of the native chest- nut and the larger form known as the Paragon,wasa Mr. Engle, of Marrietta. He had to give up the business many years agd because he was not able to control the worm. The sale exper- ience was later followed by another very extenstive grower in Lancaster county, and another in Franklin county. “I have had one of our employes working at experimentation on this subject, and the U. 8.

It may remain more than one season in the subter- ranean retreat. We have tried fumi- gating the soil, and also spraying the trees with arsenical poison, and other material, but were unable to obtain satisfactory results in killing these pests. ‘‘One of the great annoyances of he chestnut grower is to have these worms or larva cut through the nuts as they occur in great numbers in the vessels in which they are shipped, of- ten sometimes covering sidewalks in streets where they are exposed for sale. To prevent this thelarva can be killed by fumigating with the liquid known as carbon bisulfide. They can also be killed by heating the nuts, as in an oven Of course, this kills only those that a.e in the nuts, and does not make the infested nut any more edible, nor does it prevent the possi- bility of the pest coming next year. The best plan for holding this insect in check in the chestnut grove is to gather the nuts just as soon as they mature in the fall of the year, and place them in vessels with tightly closed bottoms, from which the worms cannot escape. See to it that all the nuts are gathered, and that all the worms are killed. A continuation of this year after year may result in materially lessening their numbers.’’ Not Beyond Help at 8.
