The use of pole cards, auto stick-- ers and poster stamps to line up with the organization campaigns was also approved. _ . In central Illinois, alfalfa, clover and rape excel all other forage crops for pigs. Some sections of the state may use other crops to better ad-- vantage because these crops are not adapted to all soils. However, in all sections hog raisers can afford *to arrange a rotation of forage crops which will furnish succulent grow-- ing pasture from spring till late fall. Such a plan can utilizse lots around buildings and. rough ground which would otherwise be wasted. The dis-- tribution of manure is facilitated, and disease and parasite losses are reduced to the minimam.

Ju Decides A g ainst '&dlord in Row Over Wauconda Store Claiming that he had to spend the rent money to put the building into condition for business, William Tiff-- any was found not guilty by a jury in the county court Wednesday after-- moon in the case in which John D. Murray was suing him for $180 rent due on a Wauconda store building. Tiffany operated an ice cream par-- lor in the store in Wauconda which he rented from Murray. Tiffany says he reported to his landlord several times that the roof leaked, and unless it was repaired he would have to sus-- pend his business. Murray did not re-- pair the leaks so Tiffany spent the pént money in fixing the roof. _ Murray -- received . juadgment . from Miffany in Justice of the Pesce Rrail Wicke's court, but Tiffany appealed, judgment was reversed by a '.Sut the jury in Judge Person's PIG PASTURE and the Milk Producers' high salaries to ( direciing com-- mI onsulted at Billsborrow, the Farm the name NC the refused ty Ser-- m labor and nitrogenous supplements are saved, and most important of all, growth and thrift are promoted by' the intelligent use of forage crops, Farmers should endeavor to Aave succulent forage available for hog pasture when the blue grass begins to dry up in the early summer, If clover and alfalfa are not available, rape fills the place excellently where it can be grown successfully. Sown two or three weeks before corn 'g_]iifing'tim'e, rape shoutd have suf« cient growth 3y the middle of June to carry 10 to 20 pigs per acre for the rest of the summer. By the time rape is gone, the fall rains will have rejuvenated the blue grass and '"the stubblefields, which will carry the hogs until fall sown rye is available. A well planed rotation of forage crops is both profitable and practical for the hog man. --R. J. Laible, TREATING POTATOES Potato scab is usually carried over from one yéar to the next by means of infected seed. It may also be in the soil. It is a good plan to change the location of the potato patch occasionally and avoid loss through infected soil. A heavy application of coarse manure tends to induce scab and some experiments indicate that ap-- plications of lime may also encour-- age 'the development of this disease. The treatment for seed is as fol-- lows: Make a solution of formalde-- hyde and water using one pound (or pint) of formaldehyde to thirty gal-- lons of water. Soak the potatoes for two hours in this solution. Prefer-- ably plant at once after treatment. If this cannot be done store them in bags or a bin after disinfecting the container with the formalde-- hyde solution.. This will prevent re-- infecting the seed. Potatoes should be cut for planting after being Experiments to Show Val-- A series of field meetings on eight of the University of lilinois Experi-- ment Fields were announced today.
