FARM CARDEN

AIM OF AGRICULTURAL CLUBS The principle object! to be attained through the promotion of boys’ agricultural clubs in the south as defined by those in charge of this work, are: 1. To encourage and train boys along the lines of the activities of country Itfe. —— 2. To put into practice the facts of scientific agriculture obtained from books, bulletins, etc. " 8. To bring the school life of the boy into closer relationship to his home life. 4. To assist in the development of the spirit of cooperation in the family and in the community. 5. To dignify and magnify the vocation of the farmer by demonstrating the returns which may be secured from farming when it is properly conducted. 6. To enlarge the vision of the boy and to give him definite purposes at an important period in his life. ■ 7. To furnish to the aggressive, pro gressive rural school teacher an opportunity to vitalize the work of the school by correlating the teaching of agriculture with actual practice. The aim of the boys r ~clubwofk’ _ lir the same as that among men—viz, to secure the adoption of better methods of farming and greater yields at less cost. Many of the boys in the clubs who begin to study agriculture ia this way will continue the study in the agricultural colleges; others will continue such eforts on their farms, and all of them will make more useful and more efficient citizens. From the pleasant and profitable experience of owning and managing, their small plats they will .develop into Independent, in telligent farmers.

Farmstead Improvement

The size of a farm business is not necessarily measui ed or limited by the number of acres in the farm. One ol the field men of the department, en gaged In far survey work, reports the case of a Wisconsin fanner, so situated as to make it possible for him to buy or rent more land, who solved the problem of small acreage by speeding up the 80 acres that he had. This farmer’s first move was to dis ; pose of his scrub cows and to replace them with grade and purebreds; next, without great expense, he improved the sanitary condi ions of his barns He established a cropping system bas ed on corn and alfalfa, choosing the latter rather than clover because or. his farm it produces at least 50 per cent more per acre than does clover, and is much more dependable. Pastures have now entirely disap peared from this farm, because its owner has demonstrated that one acre of corn and one of alfalfa together furnish him with ore feed than do five acres of pasture. His improved, well fed herd, housed in a clean, well lighted and thoroughly ventilated barn is yielding him more than double the milk he formerly got from his scrub herd. Furthermore, the quality of the milk has Improved and he demands and gets the price of a first class article. The largely Increased net income which this farmer now receives from the sale of milk and of purebred cattle Is based on the comparatively small changes in his type of farming, which have augmented his business without entailing any Increase in the size of his farm.

To Keep Rabbits From Young Trees

A fruit grower and nurseryman who has had considerable damage done by rabbits tells us that he has at last found a remedy. It is none other than one of the common coal tar dips or disinfectants used about stables and to keep flies away from cattle. A rather strong solution is used and It is put on with a spraying machine as ter each heavy rain or fall of snow throughout the winter. When the mow is deep a knapsack sprayer Is ns ed or even a common hand potato sprayer. The mixture is sprayed only on the portion of the trees which the rabbits can reach and therefore only a small quantity is required for each tree. These materials are not poisonous to the rabbits but act as repellants only. They do not like the smell and they keep out of the orchard, or at least do not ghaw the trees. ed sulphur and hang them about the orchard. Others smear blood on the trees and along the rabbit runways These methods are more or less effect ive. A solution of crude carbolie acid Is sometimes recommended to be used as a spray, but the cost at the pres ent time is almost prohibitive. Since its virtue lies in its odor rather than in its poisonous qualities It seems log ical that some of the coal and tar dis inf ectants would do equallywell as our Informant has found to be true by experience.

Government experts are investigat ing a method for sterilising eggs which is being tried out by a firm in Minnesota. The life germ is supposed to be killed, the pores of the shell her meticafly sealed to prevent evapora tlop and to keep, germs from getting into the egg to cause deterioration, and the' sweetness of the egg is re tained, according to the men who air doing the work. .’■““’l ■

The directors of the Monon Route have restored the common stock to a dividend basis by declaring 314 per cent on that issue. The dividend was passed two years ago this month, prior to which the Monon had been paying 1 5-8 per cent semi-annually, or 3% per cent a year. The dividend just declared was announced as“a dividend,” but presumably restores the common stock to the basis prevailing up to 1914.
