Spraying for Flic** Aids Flow of Milk There are three factors that tend to reduce the flow of milk during the summer—hot weather and poor pasture and flies. The first, and to some extent the second, are beyund the control of the dairyman, but loss from the third can be greatly reduced ifproper steps are taken at the right time. Sanitation and the use of a good fly spray will greatly reduce the loss caused by flies, say Purdue University dairymen. This loss is due partly to the direct loss of blood drawn from the animal by the insects. The great numbers that infest the herd day and night gorge themselves with large quantities of bi u ,xf. nr.- des tins, the excitement and annoyance caused during the heat of the day when the herd seeks some shady place to find comfort, exerts no small influence on the daily milk flow. Flies may become so troublesome at certain seasons of the year that animals are driven frantic. This not only affects the milk flow but may even lead to a loss of flesh The re.moval of all unnecessary material around the yards, especially fresh horse manure is a very effective means of controlling the fly menace. The darker the stable can be kept during the heat of the day the better. White wash darkened with some coloring matter such as lamp black may be applied to the windows. Sacking hung from the top of the do. r keeps the stable dark while the cows are entering and also serves to brush off a number at the same time. Some dairies equip the windows and doors with screens. This is especially valuable when the practice of keeping the herd indoors during the heat of the day is followed. During fly time each herd should be sprayed once or twice daily with some spray mixture. No fly repelent has yet been de- ; vised which is satisfactory as a permanent spray. But there are a number which greatly reduce the attacks« of these insects. There are a number of proprietary makes on the market which are satisfactory but home-made preparations can be easily prepared at less cost which is about equally efficient. The following mixture is claimed to protect the cow for at least one day, if the application is carefully made. I Fish Oil 2 quarts, Oil of Tar 1 ’. quart, Crude Carbolic Acid three fifth ounces. ■ All these materials are mixed : and then thoroughly sprayed over the animal. Apply lightly,

otherwise injurious results may occur. Spraying may be done with a hand or bucket force pump in such away as to provide a uniform coating of mist over the animal. Particular attention should be given to wetting those parts most affected by flies, but in no case should any part of the animal be drenched completely to the skin. The best time to make applications is just after milking before the cows are turned to pasture. This spray mixture should be procurable from the local drug store at a cost of SI.OO to $1.25 per gallon. More detailed information may be found in Extension Bulletin No. 105. It may be obtained upon request by writing the Department of Entomology, of Purdue University, Lafayette, Indiana. New Method of Packing Eggs I believe I have discovered the one and only method of packing eggs. The use of water-glass — or sodium silicate — is very satisfactory. Eggs packed in salt will keep for months, but both and salt are more or less expensive. My plan calls for the use of neither one. I have tried this plan for two seasons and have found it both satisfactory and economical. I dip the eggs to be packed into boiling water twice, then wrap them into small pieces of newspaper and pack—small end down—in egg crates. I use a perforated spoon for the dipping. This spoon will hold two eggs. I plunge the eggs .quickly into boiling water then lay them gently on the dough board which has been covered with a tea towel . By the time the last eggs have been dipped, the first ones have dried and cooled sufficiently to dip again. I then repeat the operation, and after all the eggs have been in the w’ater twice let them stand ten minutes, then pack away. It is advisable to pack two or three dozen a’, a time, as a smaller number does not pay for the time and trouble and a larger number takes a good deal of time. By limiting myself to two or three dozen, I find that I can sandwich the operation in at odd moments—-while waiting for the men to come to meals, or when I am obliged to be in the kitchen with an eye on the oven. I believe that the theory which explains the fact that eggs will keep when treated in this way, is that the boiling water hardens the skin which is inside the egg shell and at the same time closes the shell pores. At first I was skeptical about this plan but finally decided to try it. One trial would not have convinced me but two trials have won me over. I find that of all the ways of putting down eggs it is the best. In 1918 I packed only fifteen dozen by this method. As not one of them spoiled I decided to try it again. Last summer I began my stowing away process in July. During July and August I put down fifty dozen and the weather was hot, mind you. This is the middle of January and I have only six dozen left. I have not found a tainted egg in the lot. Each yolk holds its shape perfectly and the whites are not watery. They smell as sweet as fresh eggs. When I packed my eggs our local market quoted them at thirty cents a dozen* They are . now seventy-five cents. I reserved twenty-five dozen for home consumption. The other twenty-five I sold to a restaurant proprietor. I went to him in December and told him I had some storage eggs for sale. I explained to him the process I had used. He said he would try three dozen at five cents under p market price. He was so deI lighted that he bought twenty- | CATARRHAL DEAFNESS I to often canned by an inflamed condition I of the mueoue lining of the Eustachian W •Si**' OT h lmperf£ l t 1 heartes. ■ inflammation can | be rodneed. yojir bearing may be doi etroyod forever. .

Johnson County Pig Club Mcniibers Expand Work The goal for Pig Club work in Johnson County was not placed on the number of entries into the club, since in order to make this work succesful, members must be good boosters as well as co-opera-tors. The 31 members of the pig club are divided into four community groups with one county leader. There will be monthly meetings of the club and each member will be visited each month by the County Agent or some other interested person. The club members were urged not ta feed one pig, but rather two or more. By using this method of feeding, the boy will be able to note the difference between the two pigs as to gain, development of body, etc. It will also give a better chance to make a selection for the show ring in the fall. AM but two of the boys are feeding two or more pigs. To make a display of pig club work, each boy is to exhibit one of his pigs at the County Fair, with a record of the ration fed, gain made, and the age of each pig printed on a placard and put up on each pen. A great deal of emphasis is given to the keeping of the club record book, as outlined by Purdue University Agricultural Extension Department. Grim Alfalfa Best in Switzerland County In the spring of 1922, F. A. Griffith, of Switzerland County, purchased a bushel of Grim alfalfa from Michigan and mixed it with six bushels of oats, drilling in the seed. Running out of Grim seed, he purchased some common seed locally, giving him eight acres of Grim and eight of common in the same field. The Grim was seeded at the rate of 8 lbs. to the acre and the common 16 lbs. to the acre. The soil was high bottom. Farmers told Mr. Griffith that the seed was not thick enough 4n the Grim field, but later developments show that the Grim will make five tons to the acre to one for the common, says county agent P. G. Ewald. Club Members Have Ritual An innovation was tried this year with the Shorthorn Calf Club of Benton County in the way of initiation ceremonies for new members. The last year members were assigned parts to learn by County Agent P. T. Brown and upon the appointed meeting date administered the initiation before the invited audience. including the county superintendent and parents. This ceremony had the effect of lending dignity to the club work and giving the boys a loyalty and enthusiasm that gets results. More Cow Test Groups A cow test Association has been organized in Steuben and LaGrange Counties and the required number of members have been secured in Deleware and Madison Counties as soon as a competent tester is available to start the work. This makes eleven associations operating in Indiana under directions of the Agricultural Extension Department of Purdue University. o —— THAT FILMY POLE The North Pole is to be filmed. A simple statement like this if made twenty years ago might Jxave put the author in an insane asylum. Amundsen, in a private letter to a friend in Christiana, states that he is taking the necessary apparatus with him. If he succeeds the North Pole will undoubtedly lose its interest for the great mass of people, because its “mystery’’ will be gone. —o Subscribe for the Journal.

RAINFALL IN INDIANA Indianapolis, July 2.- Most of an average of about forty inches of rainfall annually. In parts of the north, slightly less than thirty-five inches is the average, while in the south more than forty inches is normal, and at the extreme central south one small area usually receives as much as fifty inches, or about 40 percent more than the driest part of the United States. These conditions are spoken of at considerable length and the benefits of such precipitation noted on agricultural production in the Hand Book of Indiana Geology, issued by the state conservation department, according to Richard Lieber, conservation director of this state. The average decrease in precipitation in Indiana, states Mr. Lieber, is due chiefly it distance from the Gulf of Mexico, the great source of rainfall in the eastern part of the United States. The eastern part of this state receives annually on an average more rainfall than the western margin, in keeping with the general increase in precipitation from the Rocky Mountains to the Atlantic Coast, because the cyclonic “Lows,” the great agency which draws moisture northward from the Gulf of Mexico, move eastward. The Hand Book points out that Indiana’s precipitation is fairly evenly distributed throughout the year. Most months received about three inches, but a little more than half of the total for the state falls during the warmer six months, April to September. The southern half receives exactly half of the total for the state in precipitation during the warmer half of the year, while the northwestern corner receives sixty percent during that same period. Though the southern half of 1 the state receives more rain in a year than the northern half, droughts are more severe in that area. This is because the larger share of the rain comes in the winter when it does the crops little good; the temperature on an average is higher, thus resulting in greater evaporation, and thunderstorms the water from which the run-offs decrease in frequency and intensity towards the north. About onetenth of Indiana’s precipitation in the north and one-twentieth in the south, is snow, the Hand Book says. o LIKE CONDENSED MILK Sw’eetened condensed milk, diluted with hot water, has won a place as a highly esteemed drink among the Chinese of the Swatow district. They prefer this mixture to the excellent fresh milk, containing a high percentage of butterfat, available from the water . buffaloes and other cattle maintained in considerable numbers by the farmers. — o— A classified ad will sell it HANNAH ART GIFT STUDIO Is again located opposite the South Shore Inn with a compete line of —Art Novelties—also —Good Shepherd Yarns —- Lake Wawasee, hid. w. ...THE...
