LEASING FARM REQUIRES MUCH GOOD THOUGHT Experts Suggest Written Contracts Be Signed By Parties Urbana. 111., Sept. 9 — With Sep tember 1 considered notification date in farm tenant circles, this week will find many landlords and tenants going over terms of their leases to see if they are fair to all ; concerned, it is pointed out by JOSbjth Ackerman, associate in farm management, College of Agriculture, University of Illinois. “Provisions of a lease must make possible the odoptfon of farming practices which will provide a good income to both parties,” Acker- j man said. He listed the Allowing points to be considered in leasing a farm: 1. It is best to have the lease written. This provides for a care-

| ful consideration of the responsibilities of the two parties. 2. Adequate provisions for soil conservation and improvement are I essential points of a good farm lease. Early Notification j 3. If the tenant has demonstrat- ■ ed that he is a good farmer, it is I well to have the lease worded so that it will continue from year to I year unless notification is given j of its termination. Such notifies- ; lion should be given at least six | months before the close of the i year and preferably at an even I earlier date. 4. It is to the tenant's advantage to see that the lease contains pro- ; visions to reimburse him for improvement work performed by him for which he has not realized the value when he moves from the j farm. 5. It is also to the tenants advani tage for the lease to provide for 1 reimbursement of the tenant should he he required to move from the i farm without adequate notification. 6. For the landlord's protection, I a provision should be included calling for payment Tor the abuse of property by the tenant. Provide Arbitration 7. It is well to see that the lease

■ I contains a clause which states that in event of differences of opinion 1 ' between the landlord and tenant j such differences be settled by an i arbitration committee selected by the two parties or by parties named by them to select such a com- • mittee. t 8. The stated amount to be paid > for cash rent should be adjusted to > a sliding basis which takes into i consideration marked changes in - prices of farm products and varia- : I tions in production owing to con- > ditions not under the tenant's coni j trol. On farms where the income is ! mainly from one enterprise, it . might be fair to base the cash rent . I on the value of a stipulated amount .I of product. On a diversified farm , a better plan is to include several , of the products produced. Equitable Distribution I 9. At the time of leasing a care- • ■ ful examination of the contribu- • | tions of landlord and tenant is in I order to make certain the lease ■ provides for an equitable distribu- .: tion of the receipts and expenses. ~ Too frequently the division is basI ed on the custom of the communf j Ity. “A division that is fair for one I farm may not be fair for the ad- • I joining farm'.’’ Ackerman said.

SWINE POINTERS AREDESCRIBED Suggests Dividing Uneven Litters Or Hand Feedings Swine breeders should use ev- 1 ery precaution to save all pigs far-1 1 rowed this fall, states L. A. Rich-] ardson* University of Tennessee Extension animal husbandman, in giving pointers cm the care of orphan pigs resulting from large I litters. When a sow or gilt has a litter ! in excess of the number of teats, it is well to try to even up this number of transferring some of, the pigs to another sow if a second sow has farrowed at approximately the same time and has a smaller litter or is short in number of pigs, he says. This may be done by removing the sow from her litter and keeping her away something like 20 to 30 minutes. In the meantime, the orphan or unclaimed pigs can be put with her litter in order that they may mingle together. Some hog men sprinkle the pigs with a weak solution of one of the coal tar dips. This has a tendency to destroy identification by smell on the part of the sow. If a second sow is not available to which pigs may be transferred, it is best to feed the pigs cow s whole sweet milk. This may be heated to the approximate temperature of milk and the pigs should be fed a minimum of five or six times daily until they are three or or four weeks old. At first, this had best be done by a bottle, fed with nipple, until the pigs get two to three weeks old or until they “Landlords and tenants will do well to take a broad point of view when analyzing the fairness of a l lease. Tenancy problems are those of human relationships. If the lease is an equitable working agreement, both parties will be satisfied and j each will receive a maximum return.” A more complete discussion of farm leases is contained in Circular No. 474, “Farm Leases for Illinois,’’ which may be obtained by writing the College of Agriculture at Urbana, 111.

' learn to drink. Young pigs nurse every 60 to 90 minutes. This holds true of night nursing as well as nursing in the day time. Pigs ordinarily will consume from 0.18 to 0.65 pounds of milk daily. Grain feeding should be started as soon as the pigs are large enough to begin to notice things and pick at leaves or blades of grass. Sows or gilts which do not nurse and develop their pigs satisfactorily should be eliminated from the herd. Mr. Richardson advises. o -- SWSE Cutting corn silage into one-half inch lengths requires 15 to 30 per cent less horse-powers of energy a ton than cutting into one-fourth inch lengths, it is explained in, “Filling Illinois Silos," a 10-page mimeographed publication of the College of Agriculture, University of Illinois. At present one-fourth and three-eighth inch cuts are used only when these shorter lengths will improve the packing of very dry corn. “Farm Practices and Their Effects on Farm Earnings,” is the title of a 130-page bulletin which has just been published by the I College of Agriculture, University lof Illinois. Urbana, 111. The bulle- J i tin, No. 444, evaluates some of the specific practices followed ofi more than 1.000 Illinois farms.

SMALL NEED TO FEAR GREATLY HORSE DISEASE Sleeping Sickness Is Prevented By Insect Protection Urbana. 111.. Sept. 9 — Despite the appearance of so-called sleeping sickness of horses in various parts of the country, there is no need for farmers to become unduly alarmed or to feel that all horses will become affected. Losses can easily be held down, according to staff members of the division of animal pathology and hygiene. College of Agriculture, University of Illinois. On an average, fully eight out of every 10 affected horses will recover if the disease is recognized early and veterinary treatment is started promptly, it is explained. Furthermore if no attempts are made to prevent or control the disease, at least 80 or 90 percent i of all horses will probably escape. Disease Preventable With the coming of frost, the danger to horses and mules from the disease will promptly subside this year. Staff members explain that it is unwise for horse owners i to consider selling all their horses and mules at a losk because of fear ■of the disease, for it is prevent- ; able.

Since indications point to mos quitoes and biting flies as poss ible carriers of the disease, preventive measures consist in large

' part in protecting animals from ' these insects. Hauling manure I from barns and lots and spreading it lightly on fields not used for horses will aid in destroying the j breeding places of flies. Sprinkling kerosene or oil on pouds will aid hi the control of mosquitoes. It is aTso advisable to clean water tanks and add small amounts of copper sulphate. Fly Sprays To help keep flies off horses at work, commercial sprays as well as fly nets and muslin covers are frequently used For horses on pasture. the College of Agriculture uses and recommends a mixture composed of 100 parts cold pressed fish oil, 50 parts oil of tar from pine trees and one part carbolic acid. The mixture is applied lightly and thoroughly with paint brush , twice weekly. It is not suitable for i horses at work. In localities where the disease prevails, valuable horses may be vaccinated. H.’vrever, results of vaccination during an outbreak may not be as satisfactory as vacI cination 30 days preceding outbreak. Sleeping sickness may be mis- ■ taken for heat stroke, digestive ■ disturbance, injury from lightning, 1 : colic, so-called cornstalk disease, i bacterial infections of the brain or ' 1 loss of appetite and sluggishness. 1 stiff, slow, unsteady movement. : grinding of teeth and drooping of ' ears or lips are noted, it is well to consult a veterinarian promptly. A copy of a mimeographed leaf- ■ let containing suggestions for the control and prevention of so-called sleeping sickness of horses and mules may be obtained by writing the College of Agriculture at Urbana.

Just like a watch without hand: won't tell the time of day, a farm er without records doesn’t knov where he gets his pay. High yields make for low pre duction costs.
