NEWS LETTER
Young Farmers Week at
State College
One applicatioi has been received at
the Agricultural Extension office to
enter Farmers’ Week at the Pennsyl-
vania State College, June 18th to 21st
inclusive. Plans are being made for
judging demonstrations as well as
other agricultural educational activi-
ties. Winners of judging contests at
State College will win free trips to
the National contest. This is a great
opportunity for boys and girls of
Pennsylvania.
Farmers Picnics
Farmers picnics that have been
scheduled up to the present time are:
The Somerset County Holstein-
Friesian Association Annual meeting
and picnic, June 25th, at the farm of
R. W. Lohr.
Pomona Grange Annual meeting
and picnic, June 27th, at the Bakers-
ville Picnic Grounds.
Somerset County Milking Short-
picnic June 29th, at the farm of D. G.
Stufft.
Lime Slaking Demonstrations
Wednesday, June 12th and Thurs-
day morning, June 13th, Mr. LI. T.
Denniston, Plant Pathologist of the
Pennsylvania State College will be in
the county conducting lime slaking
demonstrations. The farms on which
these demonstrations will be held
have not been arranged for. This in-
formation can be secured at the Ag-
ricultural Extension office a little bit
later. If you are spraying potatoes
don’t fail to attend one of these de-
monstrations because the proper
slaking of lime is a big factor in the
control of blight.
Store Spray Material Safely
. in Dry Places
Spray materials are often rendered
practically useless by being stored in
damp, wet places.
Lime, especially, is susceptible to
permanent damage. Drums have
been observed to rust through in a
comparatively short time under condi-
tions conducive to rusting. Lime that
has been partially air-slaked in stor-
age is bound to develop a large
amount of sediment and will not make
a good bordeaux solution. The drums
will keep safely if stored in a dry
place with the lids kept tight.
For best. result stock solutions of
lime should be made practically as
needed for use. It is not advisable
to hold such solutions longer than one
spray ahead. Stock solutions of blue
stone may be kept a longer period
with safety as long as water is added
to make up for water lost by evapor-
ation. It is a good practice to keep
the barrels containing stock solutions
covered when not using from them.
Kill Lice and Mites to Protect
Chickens
Lice and mites become more num-
erous and active in warm weather.
Flocks which had only a few lice a
few months ago may be heavily in-
fested by this time. The old types of
treatments with sodium fluoride and
blue ointment are effective in combat-
sulphate is
equally effective and easier to apply.
Place a thin stream of full-strength
nicotine sulphate on the top of the
perches about an hour before the
birds go to roost. An oil can or a
paint brush is best for applying the
material. One-half pint is sufficient
for 100 or 125 feet of roosting space.
{If the perches are rounded, rub the
i material into the wood to keep the
{fuld from running off. The nicotine
sulphate gives off poisonous fumes
| which pass through the chickens’ fea-
thers at night and kill the lice. For
treatment 10 days later to kill the
newly hatched lice before they be-
come mature and begin to lay eggs.
Prevent Mite Attacks
Many flocks will fall off in egg pro-
duction because the laying hens are
continually annoyed by red roost
mites. These mites are controlled
easily by painting the perches with
once a year. The mites must crawl
over these painted areas to get on the
birds at night, when they fill them-
selves with blood. Coming in contact
with the chemicals they are killed.
Creosote or carbolineum may be ap-
horn Association Annual meeting and;
best results, it is well to repeat the
plied in the morning so that it will
dry before night. This will avoid
soiling the feathers with wet paint.
If the chemicals are heated they will
soak into the wood more easily. Safe
heating is possible by immersing a
can of the creosote of earbolineum in
hot water. #
Qil drained from the erank cases of
tractors or automobiles will kill the
mites, but a new coating must be ap-
plied to the roosts every two months.
Urges Grain Feeding For Cows
On Pasture
Too often the pasture season is wel-
comed by dairymen as the time when
a clear profit can be made on milk
and grain feeding is unnecessary.
Grass is a bulky, watery feed eon-
taining approximately 75 to 90 per
cent water, depending on its matur-
ity. It is rich in mineral matter and
mediumly high in protein, but low in
energy-producing nutrients. The pro-
tein and mineral matter in grass are
of a high quality which, combined
with the succulent nature of the
grass, gives it a superior power to
stimulate the secretion of milk.
Because of its succulent nature, en-
ough grass to supply the required
nutrients for high milk production
and maintenance of good flesh cannot
be consumed by a cow. Without ad-
ditional feed, the cow must draw on
her own reserve to make up the defi-
ciency. This results in loss of flesh
which may not affect milk production
immediately but will show a decreas-
ed milk flow during late summer and
the following winter. Profits are not
made on high production during the
pasture season alone but on high
yearly production.
Grain feeding to cows on pasture is
absolutely essential for a big annual
milk flow. Home-grown grains, such
as corn, oats, or barley, are sufficient
for cows of average milk production.
With high production, a little extra
protein is necessary. Short pasture
should be supplemented with a good
quality hay, sumnter silage, or soiling
crops, in addition to a grain mixture.
Ring Filler Trees for Early Fruiting
Many orchardists are confronted
with the problem of encouraging their
young apple trees to start bearing.
This is particularly true of the grow-
er who has used apples as fillers be-
tween his permanent trees.
The life of the fillers is limited, as
they must be removed when they
crowd the permanent trees. Unfor-
tunately, the crowded condition often
occurs before the fillers have borne
sufficient fruit to pay for themselves.
The practice of ringing has been
adopted to remedy the situation.
It has been known for a long time
that a young tree may be made to
blossom the next season by removing
a ring of bark from the trunk in early
summer. Ringing has been consider-
ed a dangerous practice, however,
since it often has been followed by
serious injury or death of the tree.
Careful experiments conducted during
the past few years have demonstrated
that the operation can be performed
safely if properly executed at the
right time.
Ring Trees in June
In a normal season, June 10 to 20 is
the best time for ringing. It is no
longer considered necessary to remove
any bark in this operation. Just as
satisfactory results may be obtained
by making 2 or 8 circular cuts entire-
(ly around the trunk, leaving all of
| the bark in place. The cuts should be
{2 or 3 inches apart and just deep en-
| ough to go through the bark to the
wood. Compared to the older method
lof removing awring of bark around the
|trunk, this préctice is more certain to
avoid injury to the tree and is accom-
plished in about the same time.
Forced to blossom in this way, the
tree is not likely to bear flowers the
second year unless the operation is
repeated. Again, forcing the tree in-
to very early production will, to some
extent, stunt its growth. For these
reasons, the practice of ringing has
its greatest value when applied to fill-
er trees, but in extreme cases some
growers have ringed their permanent
trees when they have failed to blos-
som after reaching the size and 'age
when fruit-bearing could be expected.
