(i'l.pirei by the Vnlted Statea Department of Agriculture.) The losses sustained recently by the poultry Industry of the United States because of infectious bronchitis and European fowl pest, and the consequent state embargoes, quarantines and shipping regulations, have emphasized the supreme importance of maintaining the flocks on the farms and in commercial poultry plants in as healthful a condition as possible, says the United States Department of Agriculture. The unhampered shipment of birds from state to state Is dependent upon healthy fowls. The prevalence of Infectious bronchitis and European fowl pest In certain centers necessitated restrictive measures to protect the flocks In other centers. The question of Immediate and. It might be said, constant concern. Is how to maintain the flocks in a condition of good health. Factorsi that stand out aa being of equal vital Importance, says the department, are: (1) Stock of sound constitutional vigor; (2) the maintenance of sanitary surroundings. Stock to Keep. Laying and breeding stock that is not only healthy, but also possesses abundance of constitutional vigor Is the only kind that should be kept. The removal of birds from the flock at the first indication of a debilitated condl tlon or sieffness is a necessary precaution against loss. In case of an ap parent outbreak of disease, consult a qualified veterinarian or pathologist or send affected specimens with a complete description of the symptoms to your state agricultural college or the state sanitary authorities. Since the welfare of the healthy members of the flock is of far greater Importance than that of a few sick birds. It Is Important to look after the healthy birds first. The thing to do after the sick birds are culled out of the flock Is to clean out and disinfect the poultry house, spray with disinfecting solution any possiWy contaminated parts of the poultry establishment and cleanse thoroughly all feeding and drinking utensils. If treatment of sick birds Is advisable, keep them confined while being treated. Quarantine birds suffering from contagious disease until all danger of contaminating the rest of the flock is passed. In many cases in an outbreak of disease It Is better to kill the afTected birds at once and burn them or bury them deeply. In no case should diseased or exposed birds be sold. One factor contributing to the somewhat aggravated disease conditions prevalent In poultry rattening stations. live-poultry cars and live-poultry receiving cent ere, appears to be the raising of late-hatched chicks. Last season the early hatches In many parts •f the country were poor and chick mortality was heavy; resort was made to hatching late and this situation undoubtedly had some influence on the general vitality of much of the young stock raised because . late-hatched chicks rarely do as well as earlyhatched chicks. Culling Laying Floafefc The culling of laying flocks ivaa been practiced for a number of years In practically all parts of the country and, as a result, the laying qualities of the flocks have been greatly improved. Culling also has led to a better distribution of marketing of the surplus hens. Formerly almost all of the old hens were marketed late In the fall and early in the winter, whereas now culling permits of marketing the poorer layers over a longer season. While the practice of culling the laying stock is based on eliminating the poor layers. It Is possible that sometimes there Is a tendency to market hens In unthrifty condition and sometimes hens In poor health, a practice which cannot be too emphatically condemned. Only the slipshod farmer will market hens in poor flesh. Sanitation Is a very Important factor In keeping down disease in poultry flocks. The land used for poultry should be kept free from contamination by regular cultivation and the growing of grass, clover or some other kind of crop will keep land used by the flook free from contamination. Some poultrymen lime their soil annually. It is, of course, necessary to keep poultry houses clean at all times and well littered with clean, dry straw. Houses, to be kept fre» from dampness, need good ventilation, but drafts are to bp avoided. Overcrowding tends to weaken the vitality of the stock, and careful poultrymen allow three or four square feet of floor space per bird. The poultry house requires thor~ ough disinfection at frequent intervals with a 8 per cent solution1 of, cresol compound, U. S. P., or a B per cent carbolic acid solution. Where these disinfectants are used the fowls should not be marketed until the odor of the disinfectant has completely disappeared. If the poultrymen will take proper precautions to keep only vigorous laying and breeding stock and In maintaining sanitary surroundings It will tend to keep their stock healthy and this will, to a considerable degree, decrease the losses from disease. Finally. It Is of the utmost Importance, from a mopetary standpoint, to keep fattening stations, poultry cars and live-poultry receiving centers In a reasonably sanitary condition, and to remove aick birds from the heal thy one*. RESISTANT VARIETY OF WHEAT IS URGED BY THE GOVERNMENT Plan for Control of Bunt or Stinking Smut (Prepared by tb« United States Department of Agriculture.) Because of the heavy annual losses of wheat in the Pacific coust region, and because seed treatment is ineffective and expensive, the most promising method for control of bunt or stinking smut is through the development of resistant varieties. In Department Bulletin 1299, "Relative Resist- ..ice of Wheat to Bunt in the Pacific Prune Raspberries and Blackberries in Spring Early spring, before the buds have commenced to swell and/ after the principal danger of very lo. temperatures is past, la the right time to prune raspberries and blackberries. The first step In this pruning is to cut out all of the old canes which Lvm v fruit the preceding seasoi^ if this was not done last summer. New canes that are to be left in the plants should be chosen. These should be from five to eight In number, depending on the vigor of the plants and fertility of the soil. After choosing these, which should be strong vigorous canes, all the others should be cut out close to the surface of the ground. It the growing canes were not headed back last summer the canes that are now left in the plants should be headed hack. In the case of the blackberries, the canes would probably be left five to six feet in length and will need some support to hold them up. The black-cap raspberries will require somewhat shorter pruning and have even more need of a trellis of some sort to support them. Plants that have come up In the rows or between the rows, from the roots, should be carefully dug out In order that the plants may be weil cultivated. Large yields are practically never obtained from bramble patches which are not carefully cultivated and the soil well manured. are somewhat Intermediate In susceptibility, although one of the soft red winter varieties proved highly resistant The club wheats as a group are most susceptible. The durum, Polish and poulard wheats, as well as emmer and spelt. In general are somewhat more resistant than the common wheats except hard red winter, which is more resistant than durum-and poulard. Copies of this bulletin, which Is somewhat technical, may be obtained from the Coast States,"' thelSitei S...« '°e.„ f . P"b"C part meat ot Agriculture reperts the '"V""* °' results of Investigations made In co- \ e cent* a copy, operation with the experiment stations of California, Oregon and Washington. The bulletin deals with the results of a study of a large number of varieties and (elections of wheat. Foreign lu well as domestic varieties were used. Nearly all American varieties, all but one of the Australian, and all of the Indian and South African wheats are more or less susceptible to the fungus. Of the four commercial classes of common wheat, the hard red winters ure the most resistant, one variety being Immune, and the white wheats are the most susceptible, although one variety and four selections of white vbeat proved to be Immune or highly resistant. The hard r*d spring and soft red winter varieties Cost of Silage Depends on Several Conditions The cost of producing silage will depend upon a variety of conditions, including value of land, crop used, cost of growing, yield and expense of filling. Quite a wide range of figures have been published, ranging iron 75 cents a ton up for corn silafce. Professor Mumford of Illinois states that corn yielding 42 bushels per acre and worth 86 cents on the market will give silage at $2.75 a ton. In one instance, last year, where It took 18 acret, to fill i two silos of 110 tons each, and with an estimate of the corn at (V) bushels an acre at 85 cents a bushel, and with the labor of filling extend ing over a period of four days, and costing $110, and allowing the stalks to be worth $1 an acre on the market, the cost of the silage per ton was $2.59. Undoubtedly the cost ranges in many cases from $2 to $2.50 a ton for filling with corn. f++4 I Hangs Self Because He Can't Stady as Artist New York.--As Adolph Poalo, thirteen years old, ate a frugal lunch with his mother in their two-room flat he confided to her his ambition to become a great artist. He showed her some crude pencil sketches he had made, but he said: "I want to draw much better than that, mother. I want to paint a fine picture like the one on the wall there." The boy pointed to a cheap print of "tl«e crucifixion." "But to paint a fine picture I must take lessons." Mrs. Poalo shook her bead sadly. The odd Jobs Dominic Poalo, the boy's father, was able to do abound the Greenwich village neighborhood hardly paid for their living. \ "Yes, yes, son," she said. "Some day, maybe. Papa Dominic will have lots of money, but we must wait a while for that." Mrs. Poalo went out to buy groceries.

Especial care is taken of them. These, however, were overtopped when a middle-aged woman, accompanied by an attorney, visited the register's office' and submitted a cardboard, six by four inches In slse, the lid of a box that had contained "molasses coconut bars," as was shown by the advertisement pasted on It. Assistant Deputy Register Edwin V. Byrnes was astonished when told the cardboard lid was the will of John H. Young, who died on December 30 last, at 4808 East Thompson street. * Believing that the woman's mind was Impaired, for many such persons visit the office ami make all sorts of inquiries regarding mythical estates, the clerk smiled, as did also the woman, who turned the i'd and pointed to five lines written on the Inside. In lead pencil, showing that It was a will, properly execute^ and witnessed. The will read: "This Is to certify that I am of sound mind on this day of our Lord. October 6, 1924. I bequeath all my personal property and all that belongs to me to my wife, Elizabeth Young. "JOHN H. YOUNG." All wills are filed In alphabetical order in the vault, but the cardboard upon which this will Is written Is too large to permit of its being placed In the receptacle. Before It can be filed It will be necessary to obtain permission from Mrs. Young, the widow, who is executor of the estate, to cut oft the surplus portion of the lid. Until this permission is secured, the will will be kept in the big fireproof aafa in the main office. Parrot Saves Master From Hands of Tliugs .Cincinnati.--John E. Sherlock, cigar •tore proprietor, told police how a parrot frightened two men who attempted to rob him at his home recently. Early in the morning two men, one masked and the other wearing a handkerchief tb conceal his face, came to Sherlock's home and, using a friend's name, induced Sherlock to open the door. Both were armed. They demanded money. Sherlock told them he had none. One of the men struck him on the head with the butt end of his revolver, while the other one twisted hl^ left arm. "Bring me my gun," called Sherlock, In an effort to make his assailants believe someone was in the house. "What do you want?" came a question In a screechy voice.
