(Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Early hatched chicks are by far the most profitable, whether grown to ma turity for laying or sold as poultry flesh, says the United States Depart ment of Agriculture, and the following suggestions in regard to the successful raising and feeding of young chicks have been found to be practical. The brooder house and stove heater which are used for caring for the chickp during the first few weeks of their lives must be In working order before the chicks arrive. The most common style of brooding is the use of a stove brooder In a colony house, keeping from' 350 to 500 chicks In a flock In each house and placing the houses about 150 feet apart on a good grass range. A house 10 by 14 feet makes a suitable colony house which can be readily moved If built on run ners. Chicks brooded early In the sea son will do better In a large house, about 10 by 20, partitioneß sj that one side is used f6r a brooder stove and the other for a cool exercising room. Wire netting should be placed In the corners of the brooder house to prevent the chicks from huddling and crowding In the corners. Feed Chicks Sparingly. Chicks ehouldr not be fed for the first 36 to 48 hours, after which they should be supplied regularly four or five times dally with easily digested feed which contains little waste mate rial. They should be fed sparingly until about the fifth day, when they can be put on full ration. An excel lent feed can be made of Infertile eggs taken from the Incubator, boiled for 15 minutes, chopped, and mixed with a dry mash of equal parts of cracker meal, bran and cornmeal, us ing a sufficient amount of the grain to make a dry, crumbly mixture. Dry rolled oats are excellent for chlclis and can be used as one feed; the other two or three feeds being the commercial grains. At two weeks of age the chicks can be given a dry mash In a hopper, con sisting of four parts, by weight, of rolled oats, two parts bran, two parts cornmeal, on# part high-grade meat scrap, one part middlings and One-half part dried buttermilk. Commercial chick feed BhoulL,be fed three times dally In addition to the dry mash. Milk Is an excellent feed for chicks and should be provided either as a liquid or in the dry forpa' to secure the best growth. Feed Coarse Grain. When the chicks are one month old, they should be fed a coarser or Inter mediate chick grain, and at about twp months of "age the scratch feed can be changed to equal parts of wheat and cracked corn, fed two or three times a day. Work With Pest Poisons Seen in Motion Picture "Poison," a one-reel education mo tion picture visualizing the activities of the insecticide and fungicide board, has been recently released by the United States Department of Agricul ture. The film shows the numerous ways In which the American farmer, the greatest user of chemicals in the world, employs poisons of various sorts to destroy lngect pests and dis eases which attack his crops and live stock, and how the Insecticide and ftjngicide board protects the public against fraudulent materials by exam ining all insecticide and fungicide of fered for sale In interstate shipments. Various laboratory scenes illustrate the chemical analyses given the mate rials, and field scenes show how the worth of the "plzen" is determined by actual test. The seljure of "fake" materials, which not only fall to "cure" but often cause enormous losses by actually In juring plant or animal, and the pun ishment of their purveyors, are also Included In the film, which sounds a warning to users of Insecticides and fungicides to beware of untested poisons and to. use only tried and proved articles. » "Poison" will fie circulated through the educational film service of the de partment and the co-operating state Institutions. Copies may be borrowed for short periods or mky be purchased at the laboratory charge. Farmers Are Beginning to Find Value of Sudan Farmers are Just beginning to real ize the value of sudan gra«s for feed. Sow broadcast or put In with a drill, about twenty pounds to the acre, and don't put It In too d^ep—about one Inch Is right. This will make a fine temporary pasture for hogs. It keeps coming up just like alfalfa does, and the more it is eaten down the more It starts up. You can turn In nn It about the middle of June and from then on until frost In the fall, it gives a wonderful amount of feed. Fut In with a lister and cultivated as corn. It stools more readily and makes good hay for horses snd cn'tle. Use sbout two or three pounds to the acre. It makes more hay and better hay and Is a surer yieider thsn sny other qolck crop yoo can use. It will cat from two to four crops s season. Sudan grass being an annual and having fibrous roots similar to wheat or oats, Is as easily controlled and eradicated as millet Sudan la a good saad crop, too. lowa State College Girls Organize Club Work Deals With Practical Phases of "Farm and Home. (Prepared by the United States Department or Agriculture.) A college girls' club has been formed by former members of the form, boys and girls' 4-II clubs, now attending lowa State College of Agriculture and Mechanic Arts. These young women, according to reports to the United States Department of Agriculture as sisted In many ways at the recent short course held by the lowa college for club girls from the counties. A committee of the college club met the young visitors at the railroad station on their arrival for the short course. Another committee showed the girls the Interesting places on tfie campus during their stay. And forty members of the college club served the junior banquet given fpr short-course stu dents by the college. Members of the organization meet once each qunrter for dinner together and to make plans for welcoming all new club girls who may come to the college. 4-H clubs are organized and conducted for farm boys and girls, ranging In age from about ten to twenty years, by extension workers. The work of the clubs, dealing with practical phases of farming and home making, is planned to train the mind or head of the boy or girl to think, plan, and reason: to train the hands to be skill ful ; to attain the best possible health for efficiency and enjoyment; and to train the heart to be kindly and sym pathetic toward the work and toward associates; hence the term 4-H, or head, hands, health, and heart clubs. Discover More Cars and Trucks Owned by Farmer The United States Department of Agriculture recently discovered that 923 farmers In every 1,371 owned 1,000 automobiles and motor trucks. It was shown furthermore that nine tenths of these cars were farm busi ness cars. Two-thirds were of the low-priced type and most of them were several years old. About one-fourth of the number were motor trucks, while the fancy roadsters, coupes and se dans composed less than 10 per cent of the total. A few narrow-minded Individuals still are howling that the farmer Is doing too much Joyriding. Thgt he should lock his car up- In the barn and walk and enjoy some real prosperity after a few years, but only a few are howling In that key. Time Is Just as Important to the man on the farm a 8 It Is to the man In the shop. He buys a mower because it saves time In cut ting hay. His binder Is faster than the cradle, 1 - and likewise his motorcar Is faster than his his truck can haul more in less time than he formerly hauled with his horses. It's too bad. of course, that the motorcar can be used for pleasure occasionally. It gives the howlers an opportunity to howl, but let 'em howl. If using a motorcar for pleasure occasionally is a misfortune, we're glad to have it to contend with. Good Demand for Higher Grades of Beef Cattle Cattle feeders who finish on grain for market fared vfery well during the past year, says the United States De partment of Agriculture. Prior to the war cattle ranging In weight from 1,200 to 1,350 pounds were about 17 per cent above the price of range cat tle. In 1922 cattle of this weight sold about 36 per cent above the price of range cattle. In 1922 good to prime cattle were about 50 per cent above the price of feeder steers, whereas in Sep tember, 3923, they ranged to about 70 per cent above. The high industrial activity has given a good market for good beef and has stimulated a demand for the higher grades of cattle which com4 finished from the feed lots of the corn belt. farm Hint/ Ice houses are scarce, but the need for them is boundless. • • • Raising good calves properly la one way to build up a good dairy. • • • Two slogans for the live stock man: "Feed or get fooled," and "Keep the best; sell the rest." • • • Get the spray outfit ready and pay particular attention to having the valves work properly. • • • It would appear that big dealers In farm products have been better sold on the co-operative Idea than are in en y farmers. f N* # j Better give the jprass a good start before turning out to pasture.
