the wheat side at side al 2 4 to 314 pecks per acre or at the rate of 25 to 30 pounds per acre. The crop will be ready to pasture iu übout 5 to 6 weeks or about the first week in July. Sudan grass should be at least one foot high before grazing starts. Sudan grass renefTtf its growtn from the crown much like per tn ane n t pasture grasses. The crop will be killed by the first frost after which it should not be pastured due to datiger of! stock poisoning. Sudan grass is a very palatable, high yielding, drouth resistant crop and on good land one acre will carry from one to four animals per acre depending upon the level of soil fertility and the length of time that pasture is neede. Sudan grass should be seeded on the same seed bed as for corn at a depth of 1 to 2 inches. Soybean Hay Soybeans are the best legume hay crop to use this year as a substitute for clover and other legumes destroyed by last summer's drouth. Soybeans are just as sure a crop as corn and require the same seed bed preparation. Soybeans for hay should be planted as soon as the soil is ready for corn to be planted. For hay drill soybeans solid with a wheat drill at to 2 bushels per acre, depending on the size of the seed. For Central and Northern Indiana. Manchu, Dunfield, Mandell and lllini are all desirable varieties. In south central and southern Indiana, Kingwa; Wilson, and Virginia are all desirable varieties. On the better soils in southern Indiana the Dunfield and Manchu varieties may be used for hay if the other varieties mentioned are not obtainable. For further information about hay and pasture crops see the county agent.

First Entrant in. District Lamb Show ■ a .. ara IB ; >' . . .. - -

, . .1 >bo<« with bis flock is the first entrant! in the district market lamb show,l grading demonstration -’P'l : be held at the Port Wayne Stock Yards. Thursday, July 15. Several Adams county sheep raisers are expected to enter. Through this show, it is hoped to I organize a 4-H lamb show in Ad-I ams county, information of which I may be obtained from County Ag-i ent L. E. Archbold. The lists of prizes, rules and regulations for the district show; are: | Prizes The prizes are: pen of three, lambs for 4 II club members; first.i 48; second. >7; third. 46; fourth $6; fifth, 15; sixth. 45; seventh,' 45; eighth, 45; ninth. »4, tenths. 44; eleventh, 43; twelfth. 43; jhir ( teenth. 43; fourteenth, 43; fifteenth TIME ARRIVED FOR GARDENING Thought Should Be Given To Preparing For Insect Invasion What to do with cucumber bect- ( les, aphis, cabbage worms, onion ; maggots, cutworms, earwigs and' all the host of other pests that an-! nually appear to reap the crop the 1 gardener has sown? This question will again become a pressing one, with the approach of gardening time, and victory for the gardener lies in using the right weapons at the right time. Lists of, the different types of insecticies,l the common insect pests, conipar-, ative values of sprays and dusts, kinds of sprayers and dusters and; much other information of value; to growers in the coming campaign' is contained in a new’ extension bulletin, No. 496, prepared by Dr. I Don C. Mote and Prof. B. G. Thomson of the entomology department at Oregon State college. Most insecticides may be applied I as a liquid spray or as a dust, but dusting seems to be the more acceptable method for treating vegetable crops, the entomologists say,; as dusting outfits are comparative-j ly inexpensive and handy. Several types of hand dusters suitable for this purpose are on the market. The three common kinds are the bellows type, in w hich the air blast I is generated by a bellows; flic cyl ! inder type, in which a piston is j utilized to make the air blast, and. the rotary fan type. The fan type is the most expen-i sive, it is pointed out, but is most, suitable for larger areas. The bell-1 ows and cylinder type, which range; in cost from 41 up, according to. size, are satisfactory for small gardens, giving good coverage with; least waste of dust. if a duster is not available, a cheese cloth bag may be made to! serve the purpose for small areas. | The dust is placed in a bag made of cheese cloth and shaken overt the plants. ■ o HORSE SENSE Planting flowers along the outside of the fence or hedge gives passers bye additional beauty to look at and greatly improves the appearance of roadsides. The moat important secrets of Success in deep-fat frying are: Is-

Pens of 10 lambs for members of I ■ the gold medal sheep club: first, 1415; second, 411; third, 413: fourth 1412; fifth. 411: sixth, 49; seventh, 148; eighth, 47; ninth, 46, and tenth ! Rules ‘ Rules for eligibility are: any -111' lamb club member, owning or leas-i ; ing his flock, and owning lambs, ready for market at the time of I the show is eligible to exhibit, pro tiding the program of the -1 H lamb ■ ' club project has been fulfilled. Any memSer of the Hoosier gold ; ing the right kind of fat; heating the fat to the right temperature, and keeping it just hot enough dur-' ing the frying, and preparing the food properly before frying, espei iuTTy drying it somewhat. Sheets ironed from selvage to; selvage have increased in width as ■ much as 3 to 4 percent, and at the i same time decreased in length; from 7 to 8 percent, partly because! ■of shrinkage. Had they been ironed repeatedly along their length, l they would not have become so ■ short. i A total of 4,498,710 dozen eggs have been bought by the AAA in 1 its emergency surplus removal program. put into effect January 15 to prevent a continuation in the ab- ! normally sharp decline in winter farm egg prices resulting from exj tremely mild winter weather con- , ditions. Mold throughout silage indicates ’ faulty packing, according to the i College of Agriculture, University 1 of Illinois. o * SECTION AL SCORES] THRIFTY PIGS By L. E. ARCHBOLD County Agent No difficulty arises in keeping pigs healthy when they are fed practical rations and kept free I from common intestinal round 'worms. Hundreds of unthrifty pigs have been dissected, in extension activities by county agents, and it' was found that ninety in every hundred unthrifty pigs were found! Ito be infested with these parasites.l Young pigs are most susceptible j laud suffer seriously. The best and' | most practical method of control; is to prevent, the young pigs from | becoming infested. This can easily be done by moving sows away ' from old hog lots, a week or more | before they are to start farrowing, j to land where no hogs have been kept for at least a year. If the far-1 I rowing pens or individual hog lions-. I es have been used for hog shelters' jduring the winter, they should be' scrulffied out well with broiling ; water and lye, one to each fifteen gallons. Do this ten days or more i before farrowing starts. Never allow sows or young pigs to crawl through the fence into an old hog lot as they get wormy there. A wormy pig is a ruined pig' as these parasites, in their life, cycle, damage the liver, lungs,' 'small intestines, etc. A thrifty pig,! under the present market condition, may be as good as a gold bond. Keep pigs free from parasit-' es, comfortable every night and feed them right to assure success.; .1

medal sheep club, whose flock is regularly enrolled and who has | complied with the rules of the club at the time of the show is ■ eligible to exhibit. I it is not necessary to be eligible lor a medal in the Gold Medal , Sheep club at tile time of the show, ; providing all of the other rules have been fufilled. Judges Judges in the show will be Claude Harper, J. T. Frost and Henry Mayo. An auction sale of lambs exhibited in this show will be held in | tlie afternoon on the day of the 1 show. Only those lambs that are ' exhibited and judged in any of the classes are eligible to sell in this ! auction. Owners may buy in their [ lambs at the auction, providing ! they buy back the entire pen. POULTRY PRICES I WILL INCREASE — Fairly Good Year Expected In 1937 For Poultry Owners Urbana, 111., March. s—Efficient Illinois poultrymen may well expect 1937 to be a fairly good poultry season, particularly the latter part of the year, according to H. il. Alp, extension poultryman, College of Agriculture, University of. Illinois. Right now, however, the poultry | ' meat situation does not look as en-l couraging as the eggpicture, he, i said. To illustrate, he cited the ■ storage holdings of poultry in 251 I cities in January amounting to 137 i | million pounds as compared with SO million pounds in January of 1936. I “All in all there is little need lor excitement over the outlook,” Alp said. “The main thing will be to stand pat on established and proved practices and to eliminate all unnecessary expense. One big expense item in the past lias been sick and parasite-infested pullets. The average flock owner can well afford to give more time to disease prevention programs through strict sanitary measures in brood- ! ing and rearing practices.” A better consumer demand situlatioh will probably keep egg prices ' in the first half of 1937 above those ' of a year earlier, is the belief ex--1 pressed by the U. S. Department ,of Agriculture. This agency does not anticipate any increase in hatchings this spring. One effect of a high or unfavorable feed-egg ratio in the winter is unchanged or reduced hatchings the following spring, i( is pointed I out. Some evidence of a reduction is indicated in the 12 per cent de'crease in saleable chicks hatched 'in commercial hatcheries in win--1 ter broiler producing areas during November of last year as compared with November of 1935. An increase in the demand for sexed chickens is anticipated this spring, if, as a resifit, cockerels can be bought cheap, they may be made to pay out. o 'NOTICE FARMERS —Treat your I harness right.

PLAN STUDY OF CONSERVATION i-H Clubs To Learn Conservation In New Extension Program Lafayette, Ind., Mar. s—lndiana 4 H club members will have an opportunity to increase their conservation activities this year by enrolling in projects that concern soil conservation, wild life, and forestry problems which have been formulated through the co-operation of ' I-H club and subject matter specialists of Purdue University. The second annual 4 11 Club Conservation Camp has been planned for I July 26 to 30 at McCormick's Creek Canyon State Park, near Spencer, Indiana. State club leaders iu announcing the conservation activities for rural youth pointed out that conservation of water, soil, forests, and wild life is a national problem. The future prosperity of the nation, they slated, will depend upon how wisely the present generation conserves and uses its present resources. The coming generation, it was thought, would develop a consciousness of its responsibility in restoring and conserving vanishing resources through the encouragement received in 4-H conservatiqn activities. To Study Soils Among the activities encouraged through the various conservation projects offered include: a study of soil fertility and lime requirements of various crops; losses of soil, plant, food, and water to be studied and determined, when the runoff of water over the surface of soil is uncontrolled; make soil fertility and acidity tests on cropped fields and the application of limestone on one or more acres as needed; and make a list of changes on the home farm that will provide the best use of the land and will conserve the moisture, plant food, and wild animals a study of the life histories of many plants and animals, and a study of forestry problems. Further information may be obtained from County Agent L. E. Archbold, who is working out arrangements to work in cooperation , with existing junior conservation J clubs.
