me Co — eG —————————————— ‘ "FARM TOPICS | Promote Farm Safety—Correction and elimination of barn hazards are a good investment. Check on loft doors, feed chutes, ladders, stairways, floors, lighting, tools left in alleyways, and smoking and use of matches and lanterns. Feed Silage to Ewes—Corn silage is a good feed for the bred ewes. 2 to 2% pounds per day for each ewe—a bushel crate for every 10 ewes. Use of the silage saves grain. Locate Garden Near House—Most convenient location for the home vegetable garden is near the house, but soil conditions must be right. A good garden soil is mellow and loamy in texture, with topsoil at least 8 inches deep. Repair Farm Machines— Costly delays during the busy planting season may be avoided if needed repairs are made to farm machinery now. Avoid Butchering Mishaps—Slip- pery footing may cause accidents in butchering. Remove ice or sprinkle ashes on the ground, or if inside use sand, sawdust, or crushed rock salt. Build Hay Finisher—While the hay. mow is empty, changes may be made in the floor for the in- stallation of hay finishers. | OUR DEMOCRACY by Mat Nd \ AN | SEC Ea KEEPING THE CONSTITUTION MARCH 8.1841 ~ MARCH 6,/935 SCHOLAR SOLDIER PHILOSOPHER, AMONG GREAT AMERICANS DURING THE 29 YEARS HE SERVED ON THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT THE HISTORY OF OUR COUNTRY IS A RECORD OF DYNAMIC CHANGE, OF GROWTH AND PROGRESS.

Some plant dis- eases survive in the soil for 3 or 4 years and may cause severe losses. Mark Wet Spots— When the ground is fully saturated, wet spots show up best in the fields. Farmers planning to drain these fields for full use can mark the spots and do the ditching later. Ordering drain tile early. Make Seed Treater— Plans for making a Minnesota seed grain treater may be obtained from your county agricultural extension office. L. O. Weaver, extension plant path- ologist of the Pennsylvania State College explains that the treater can be made with little effort and expense. It can be used in a build- ing or wagon box. Curb Anthracnose—An adequate spray program, starting with a de- layed dormant spray when new leaf buds begin to show, is the best control for anthracnose on rasp- berries. Dust Livestock— Lice on cattle can be controlled by two dusts, 5 to 10 per cent DDT or a 1-3 mixture of derris or cube root and wettable sulphur, rubbed against the lie of the hair.
