OUTLINE PRACTICES TO PREVENT COCCIDIOSIS

The rainy spring has been ideal for coccidiosis to develop in poultry flocks. Joe Sicer, Purdue University extension poultryman says try to prevent it by keeping the litter deep and dry, use wire covered platforms for waterers, cover the bare muddy areas around the brooder house with gravel or crifshed rock and provide well drained pasture that has been free of poultry and poultry manure for at least a year. -

In addition, follow good feeding practices. Use grids or reels that keep the chickens out of the feeders. Don’t fill hoppers more than two thirds,full. The chickens will bill excess feed out and pick it up later after it has become contaminated from droppings. Arrange feeding ‘schedule so that the chicks always have -plenty to eat for breakfast.

GIVE yourself five seconds, and you know that here’s car styling as up to the minute as the time of ‘day. , Spend a few fast minutes to see why — and you spot both smartness right from tomorrow’s designing boards and everything that should go with it.

clover, alfalfa, alfalfa brome, or mixtures of blue grass and clovers for poultry, should not be given too much punishment during the coming drier season, and thereby ruin well established fields, Purdue University extension poultrymen advise. :

Over grazing pastures of ladino clover, the new giant type white clover, may happen easily. Chickens prefer ladino and will eat the clover down to the roots if pasture becomes short. If ladino is not pastured until the second year, it can support 500 to 600 growing chickens per acre under favorable conditions. It is also excellent as a pasture crop for adult birds. .

Although ladino is usually seeded in the spring by itself, or with a nurse crop such as a light seeding of oats, it may also be seeded in August on a well prepared seed bed. -

Sudan grass is recommended as a temporary pasture for poultry. Sudan grass is drouth tolerant, while ladino clover, being shallow

NEW VARIETIES OF OATS AND WHEAT DISCUSSED

Experimental plots of both the !old standard wheat and oats varieties ahd the new disease re--sistant strains of oats and wheat were. called to the attention of ‘many Noble County farmers recently. Mr. M. O. Pence, Purdue Agronomist, discussed the varieties on the demonstration plots on th_e Frank Frank’s farm in Elkhart Twp. and Milford Bell’s farm and the James Cramer farm in Swan Twp. Some high yielding varieties observed on the tour were the Fairfield, Thorne, Gladden, Nured and Vigo. Mr. Pence pointed out that both Thorne and Gladden, although high yielding, were too easily injured by cold weather for use in Noble County year after‘ year. Fairfield, however, was winter hardy and high yieding in northern counties. Vigo, a new wheat released to about 100 far-} mers last fall in the state for multiplication of seed, was also discussed. Vigo possesses good milling and baking qualities and produces a high yield and test weight of threshed grain. Clinton, Benton, Vicland, Col-

umbia, Catrier and Tama oats were also viewed. Clinton and Benton oats, according to Mr. Pence, are resistant to Victoria Blight and stem rust which attack most other oats varieties. These two new varieties out yielded the other varieties in all Purdue University tests. ' Clinton and Benton oats are more resistant to lodging than most other oats. However, Benton averages four inches taller than Clinton and in high nitrogen soil will lodge before Clinton oats does. He urged farmers to get their orders in early to the farmers growing these mew v—arieties‘ of oats and wheat. .

With various idapters these machines ‘have woven your socks, mittens, neck ties and other similiar producis for more than a century. : These braiders are used to braid cotton over electrical wire assemblies. They are simple in operation and require no more attention than a sewing machine. A few weeks of practice and they become second nature in handling, Other than the attachment of refilling spools, which operate the same as filling the bobbin on a sewing machine, there is little or nothing to adjust. The wires are placed in the machine and by electric power continue to braid various lengths. The operator has 61i1y to start and stop the machifie at ihtervals marked.
