LAMB RATION IS CORN.ALFALFA No Supplement Needed If Feeds Are Os Good Quality Corn and alfalfa will make about the most profitable ration the lamb feeder can provide for his flock this fall and winter, says W. E. Morris, Minnesota University extension animal husbandman. If both feeds are of good quality, it is doubtful at present prices, that a supplement of any kind need be fed. Whole shelled corn has been found a most suitable grain ration. When on full feed, lambs weighing from 60 to 85 pounds should eat from one and one-half to two pounds of grain per head daily, including any supplement provided and from one and one-fourth to one-half pounds of hay. If a common roughage is used, such as prairie hay, a protein supplement should be fed at the rate of one pound daily to each five lambs. The supplement can be linseed oil meal, or soybean oil meal, depending on which is lowest in cost, it corn is not available, whole barley, oats, wheat or rye may be fed alone. Feeding oats alone, however, is not recommended for fattening lambs, but only for starting lambs on feed, and finally should not ‘ make up more than 25 per cent of the grain ration. Lambs should gain at least onethird of a pound daily, making a gain of 25 to 30 pounds in 75 to 100 days of feeding. An efficient feeder will have his lambs fat enough to kill out well and suitable to the packer in that period of thne. says Morris. Slightly above 90 pounds is a good weight to begin marketing lambs, if they are

A farm plan is to the farmer what the architect’s drawings are to the building contractor, it is pointed out in “Suggestions and . Forms for Planning the Farm Bus- . iness." a pamphlet which has just been issued by the agricultural college. Written by J. B. Cunningham, extension specialist in farm management, P. E. Johnston, extension specialist in agricultural economics. and M. L. Mosher, extension specialist in farm management, the publication will be sent free upon requests addressed to the College of Agriculture at Urbana. The farm plan gives direction to the work that is to be done, contributes greatly to the convenience of the operator and when intelligently used results in larger and more stable farm earnings, greater conservation of land and other resources. a better living for the farm family, a better heritage for future generations and the production of farm products more closely adjusted to domestic and foreign demand, it is explained. ' Slice a desirable farm plan calls for the following of a definite procedure, the pamphlet lists four steps that are to be followed in order. They are the taking of a physical inventory of the farm; the designing of a long-time plan; setting up goals toward which to work, outlining the transition from the present plan to the future plan and testing out the plan. The publication contains blanks to be filled in by farmers as they take the various steps in‘making out a farm plan.

BONDTOMATOES FOR PURCHASERS State Association Guarantees Qualities Os Important Crop Indiana long ago established an enviable reputation for being “blue ribbon state” for tomato production. Now through the efforts of the Indiana Canners Association in cooperation with the Indiana State Horticultural Society, Indiana canned tomatoes go to the Hoosier housewives backed by Government inspection and a S2OOO cash bond, thus guaranteeing that the tomatoes under the "Hoosier Seal of Quality” and the “Hoosier Standard” are of top quality in their re- . spective classes. Under “Hoosier Seal of Quality" brand, Indiana red ripe tomatoes at their best, the “Cream of the Crop” will be found in every can of top quality, flavor and goodness. “Hoosier Standard” brand is a top quality Standard, every can uniformly good — just the kind of tomatoes for every day use, sell- ' ( ing at a price within the reach of TO 4-H CONGRESS V I INDIANA’S “all-around” 4-H Club girl, Dorothy Arvidson 17, ot Lafayette, named by State Club Leader Z.

C. Gaylord, assistant chief of horticulture at Purdue University, who originated the “Seal of Quality” idea for Indiana horticultural products. For Hoosier tomatoes of guaranteed goodness, consumers should ask for "Hoosier Standard” or “Hoosier Seal of Quality.” These are Indiana packed tomatoes at their best.

o HOBSE SfNSE Thrifty farmers who raise timber for fence posts on rough land cut their fencing costs each year. Also, place your order now for i trees for the spring planting before the supply is exhausted. It is not necessary for parsnips to be frozen before they are good to eat. Freezing, however, sweetens the taste. Be sure to mark your window screens as they are removed from the windows for winter storage. To prevent rusting, brush the screens and then wipe with a cloth dampened with kerosene. Clean dry storage where frames can’t warp is also a money and time saving suggestion.

I Sana, shows that while soil treat- ' ments practically doubled corn i yields, proper drainage added a third more. Good drainage gives you the maximum value from line and fertilizer. Many dairymei/get into the profit column the quickest by culling out the loafers and “sit down strikers” in the dairy herd. To prevent scours in calves, add one-half to one quart of clear lime water to the daily milk ration. This saturated water solution! of I lime is made by adding a handful of lime to about two gallons of water. Reduce or remove either the food or shelter for rats and mice and it will have a corresponding effect on their infestation. Dry, heated basements, unused rooms, or warm attics are all desirable places to store small lots of seed corn. Corn must be dried down to 14 per cent moisture to be safe at sub-zero temperatures unless in a well protected building. It takes a trained eye to detect the presence of some of the noxious weed seeds. Therefore, it is advisable to have timothy, clover, and grass seeds tested by the i State Seed Laboratory, Purdue | University. Lafayette, Indiana.
