HOW TO HAVE GLEAN SEED

The modern seed grader and fanning mill is an important machine on the farm and is without doubt one of the best investments a farmer can make. It will add to the value of every crop he plants, The modern seed grader and fanning mill in the first place removes all the impurities and foreign atter from the grain and in the second place separates the different grades of the grain itself, eliminating the small weazened kernels that would produce only stunted stalks and carefully Selecting the large, even, fully developed kernels that mean big yields of fine Quality. Planting only such seed not only assures a big yield of large, full-eareo grain next year, but it means with proper selection a constant grading up each crop—a still bigger, better yield each year of heavier, choicer grain. On the other hand each small undeveloped kernel planted not only means a poorer crop of poorer grain next year, but a constant grading down of your whole crop year after year. Still worse is the effect of weedseed that is contained in ungraded grain. There is no question about the evil effect on the tenacity of weeds. Unless carefully guarded against they will overrun any place. Large quantities of them are planted with all ungraded grain. Other large quantities are in the grain fed to animals and are spread over the fields in the manure. Unless the grain for both sowing and feeding is cleaned each succeeding year will show more and more weeds. —~ —— All grain as it comes from the shelling or threshing contains much dust, dirt and other foreign substances. Commission men and grain buyers will not pay full prices for such grain. They “dock” the farmer to allow for this. Then after cleaning if they sell his own screenings right back to the farmer at a good price. The buyer thus makes a double profit on his part of the transaction and the farmer loses both ways. The farmer who cleans his grain in his own fanning mill always gets top price for his grain and has his screenings for feeding purposes. With a high grade fanning mill and seed grader any grain or grass seed, wheat, corn, oats, clover, alfalfa etc. may be cleaned and graded quickly and easily. From a large hopper the seed or grain keeps running in a continual stream down over a series of screens over each of which a blast ofair is constantly passing and each of which in turn eliminates all dirt and undesirable seed till finally only the choicest kernels are left. —A good grader will easily clean and grade 60 bushels of grain per hour, and 40 bushels oi clover, alfalfa and such seed. If, however, the cleaning is simply for the market, that is, only the dirt and screenings are removed—the work may be done much faster.—National Stockman and Farmer.

Every farm and country home should have a medicine cabinet* sup plied with the standard remedies for Immediate use, such as witch hazel., peroxide, iodine, spirits of camphor, alcohol, carbolated vaseline, glycerine absorbent cotton, cotton bandages and such medicines as are likely to be required in an emergency. Keep the medicines In the cabinet and not scattered all over the house and have every bottle plainly labeled.

FOWLS FOR EXHIBITION

. I Preparing Show Birds—Good Physical, Condition, Handsome Plumage and Careful Grooming Essential Every fowl whether young or mature, should be in first class show condition when it enters the exhibition hall. The plumage should be the standard length for the breed, lustrlous and plentiful, the head* bright red in color and the comb developed to the required size. The specimen should ap pear in handsome dress, good physical condition, and trained to exhibit his good qualities to advantage. Careful training imparts to a bird sufficient confidence to assume and hold desired poses under show room conditions. If possible obtain exhibition coops similar to those used at the show you will attend. Cover the floor with short straw or a mixture of bran and straw for feathered leg breeds. Two months before the show place the birds you intend to exhibitin -the coops atnight. Visit the coops as frequently as you can and handle the birds often. Carry them around under the arm, open their wings and examine the undercolor and accustom them to every movement of the judge. It is not advisable or necessary to keep the show birds confined in the training coops. A day at a time is sufficient. Then, allow them the run of the house for two or three days It is necessary' to examine show birds carefully at least ten weeks _before the show. Remove all imperfect feathers in the hope that they may be replaced by feathers of standard color. Frequently a colored feather showing a little white along the edge of the web will molt out perfectly when the foul is well fed on sour milk mash, meat, and grain. Never pluck a new feather—one in which the quill is filled with fluid—as it will invariably return partially white. A few days before the exhibition examine your birds again and pluck the imperfect feathers. It is quite a problem to determine the best procedure when there is foreign color in some of the large feathers on the wings or tail. If the color is a cause for disqualification, there is no justification for shipping the bird to the show. What is best to do will depend upon the quality of the specimen in other sections and upon the amount of defective color in the wings. Usually these defects occui in similar feathers in both wings. All white fowls must be washed and most fowls of other colors can be improved in appearance by washing, fluffing and grdoTuing before the show. For whitfFbirds have three tubs filled with (1) warm soft or rain water; (2) warm, soft or rain water; (3) warm, soft or rain water colored the proper shade to rinse and blue white goods Use a good white or castile soap and a large sponge and a nail brush. Have Uie temperature of the room 80 or 85 degrees and bring the birds in clean exhibition coops, the floors of which should be covered with fresh, dry shavings. Wash the males first. Clean the shanks and feet with the nail brush, soap and water. Insert the bird in tub (1) and push it down under the water several times until the plumage is wet through; make a heavy lather with the sponge and soap and thoroughly wash the plumage with the sponge, open the wings and sponge them in the direction of the feathers. (In fact always wash the length of the feather from the quill to the tip and not across it.) Keep the bird’s head out of the soapy water if possible; sponge the soap off the bird, and remove to tub (2). Press it under the water several times, allow it to stand and drip for a few seconds, and then dip it twice in tub (3) containing the bluing water. Remove the bird from the water, hole its legs firmly and raise it up and down quickly, so that it will flap and expand its wings and tail and shake out the water.‘Do not use a towel to dry a white bird. Move the exhibition coop near the fire or some heat, so that the bird will dry. Lifting up the plunge .of the breast and opening the feathers of the fluff while drying has a tendency to increase the apparent size of these sections. It is netessary to the white birds frequently if the coops are near a stove to guard against overheating them or scorching or curling their feathers. t The shanks and feet of exhibition fowls must be absolutely clean and well polished. To overcome rough scales rub the legs twice daily with a cloth dipped in kerosene, and a short time before the show wash them thoroughly. Use a good scouring soap, woolen cloth, and warm rain water. Remove any old or rough shales and also the dirt between the scales. The latter can be taken out with toothpicks. Dry the shanlcs and apply a

solution of equal parts of sweet oil and alcohol. Then warm a woolen cloth and scrape a little beeswax on it. The warmth will melt the wax, and the shanks should then be polished with the waxed cloth. Before shipping the birds to the ex hibition apply the sweet oil and alcohol solution to the face and comb. If you are showing white birds, fill thei’ plumage, after washing and after thor oughly dry, with equal parts of bran and rice*’ flour. Some exhibitors urge cornstarch, which is equally satisfactory. This prevents the plumage be coming soiled, and when the starch if shaken out at the show and the fowlare groomed they apparently take a higher polish. However, the coops must have wooden or muslin tops and sides to prevent rain coming in contact with the starched plumage. The • final grooming is accomplished with a silk handkerchief, rubbing and polishing the feathers until the plumage has a higher luster.

Corn, Wheat, Alfalfa and Clover Farms.

John O’Connor, agent for southeast Missouri farm land, has just received the following letter: - St. Louis, June 6, 1916. John O’Connor, Agent, , Rensselaer, Ind., Dear Sir: We are leaving tonight with nine buyers for southeast Missouri. We just thought we would write you and tell you that people are more active in buying southeast Missouri lands than ever before. The wheat crop has come out wonderfully in the last 30 days and southeast Missouri again will furnish a good crop of wheat. The corn is knee-high and the first cutting of alfalfa has been cut. The second one will be ready to cut in about two weeks. They will begin cutting wheat next week, so if you have any buyers, come on with them; we are sure we will make a sale. Yours truly, Rolwing-Mylet Investment Co. Any information wanted, write or call the undersigned. These conditions are regular every year there, and don’t forget this, no early frosts, no tiling, no fertilizer needed; no stone, and taxes there are $1.17 on the SIOO. Anyone wanting a home can’t beat it R. R. fare from Remington, $7.18 one way; round- trip $14.36. I can show you samples of soil and wheat from there. JOHN O’CONNOR.

While William Lee was delivering ice this morning at the home of Jade Tilton, the small daughter of the latter climbed into the wagon to get some small pieces of ice. As the little girl got down from the wagon she stepped out into the road directly in front of an automobile driven by Willis Lutz, and was knocked down. Mr. Lutz was driving slowly and the little girl did not receive any injuries.
