The department does not confine its recommendations to bond- ed warehouses. More general use of private warehouses will do much to stop the big loss. Don’t Delay Home Canning The United States Department of Agriculture again urges house- keepers not to neglect nor delay home canning, drying, and pre- serving. Fruit, sugar, and con- tainers may be expensive, but even at the prices being charged for them a saving in household expenses can probably be made by filling the pantry shelves while there is an op- portunity to do so. There is no in- dication that the usual margin of difference in cost to the consumer of home and commercial products will be lessened. Moreover, a well-stocked pantry now assures a more varied, attractive, and wholesome diet next winter. Home demonstration agents and club leaders of the department and the State agricultural colleges will give all possible assistance. House- keepers who desire copies of the de- partment’s canning directions may obtain them immediately and with- out cost by addressing the Division of Publications of the United States Department of Agriculture at Wash- ington, D. C. Canning directions may also be obtained in many cases from the State agricuitural colleges. Cattle Saved from Drought Assistance to stockmen of the droughtstricken Northwest by the United States Department of Agri- culture, the State agricultural col- leges, and State departments of agriculture have been effective in re- lieving the situation and in facilitat- ing the transfer to new pastures and the marketing of much endangered stock. Temporary offices have been opened in South Omaha, South St. Paul, Billings, Mont., Kansas City, and Chicago, where as accurate in- formation as possible is assembled on market conditions, the movement of stocker and feeder cattle. feeder lambs and breeding ewes, and avail- able feed supplies. Information con- cerning the run of to market is distributed among farmers in the corn belt, and the concerning feed supplies among stockmen in the droughty area. The most recent review of the live-stock situation in the Northwest is encouraging. Although there have been heavy movements of live stock to the central markets and to pas- ture areas eastward and southward, there has not been, and will not be, and great sacrifice of this live stock. Those who expect to buy stock from the drought region for less than market value are open to disappoint- ment. It is anticipated ment of live stock during the next few shipments from the Northwestern States during July and August to the central markets have approached record proportions, but as there has been an abundance of rough stock that the move- will be heavy weeks.

Time to Pick Brood Sows Early fall is the time of year when hog growers should select from the spring crop of pigs the sows to be used as next year’s dams. From now on until the breeding season these sows should be fed in a man- ner different from the way they were to be fattened for market pur- Good forage crops are prac- tically a necessity. A self-feeder containing a good quality of thrashed oats makes good feed for these sows. In addition, according to specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture, they may be fed a small amount of corn and some shorts or middlings, and fish meal or tankage. Carful attention should be given to the selection of sows for breeding purposes. First, they should be se- lected from a good sized litter and from a litter whose dam has good sucking qualities. The brood sow should be of good rangy type, with a good, strong arched back, deep sides, rather thin neck, and not too broad in the face. By all means she should be a “good-footed” animal with good, strong legs and pasterns and rather upstanding from the ground. The sow that takes plenty of ex- ercise freely is the one that is most likely to make adesirable brood sow. Do not select a sow from a litter whose dam is cross and irritable. The sow should be gentle and easily handled. Attention should also be paid to the eyes. A blind sow is likely to step on and injure her pigs. Carful attention to these details at this time will have a tendency to add to the value of the breeding herd and to the number of pigs that may be brought to maturity. poses. Women Get Better Butter Prices Farm women in many parts of the South have doubled their receipts for butter. In some instances this increase in price is due to the im- proved quality of the product and in others to better marketing methods. Both the better quality and the bet- ter selling have been made possible by the assistance given the southern butter makers by the home demon- stration agents. These experts in home economics, who are sent out by the Department of Agriculture and State agricultural colleges, teach improved methods of making butter and cheese, as well as other house- hold lore, to the women who live in dairy counties. As soon as enough women in locality are making first-class butter club, one is organ- shi These circles or one clubs market co- operatively. and the quality of the products which are sold through them is guaranteed by the members.

Jack Frost Approaches By giving attention to facts es- tablished by the Weather Bureau of the United States Department of Agriculture, farmers and gardeners often may save crops and money by protecting their plantings from frost. For instance, a valley or depres: sion may be a regular catch-all for" frosts, while a hill beside it may be visited much less frequently. There is a well-recognized tendency for the air near the surface in depres- sions or more or less inclosed val- leys to become denser and colder than that on near-by hillsides, which increases the frost risk in the low- lands. The lesson from these facts is that early and tender crops should, so far as practicable, be confined to crests, hillsides, and mountain sites, and later and hardier crops should be planted in lowlands and valleys. “Notes on Frosts,” which is Far- mers’ Bulletin 104 of the United States Department of Agriculture, discusses this subject in detail, and may be obtained free on application to the department. The Weather Bureau is preparing to issue an- other popular bulletin on this sub- ject. Moving Time for Pullets September is moving time for the hen and pullets which must be trans- ferred from the range to their win- ter quarters as early as possible so as to be acclimated to their cold- weather environments before they begin to lay. Year after year poultry keepers neglect to ship their stock from the summer resorts to winter lodgings early enough, as this is one of the basic principles of best management, according to specialists of the United States Department of Agriculture. Mill Hands Drink More Milk Milk, either sweet or as butter- milk, bids fair to become the favorite soft drink of the factory employee. Dairy specialists, sent out by the De- partment of riculture this year, have been giving talks, in which the value of milk is stressed. to sentative groups of workers in ous trades. In Worcester, Mass., short talks on milk as a food have been given in 11 factories. Exhibits have been set up in some of the fac- tories visited by the specialists. Af- ter each lecture about 2,000 pamph- lets were distributed. In Worcester 14 factories are now selling milk to repre- vari- WED?
