contour cultivation not only con
serves valuable soil, but by saving
water it also increases the chances
of a full yield of crops per acre.

Questions
Answered at State College
QUESTION: Does the feeding
of a moist mash aid in egg pro
duction?
ANSWER: There is little to be
gained by feeding moist mash con
tinuously through the year, but it
has an important place in feeding
laying hens during the summer
months. It will stimulate produc
tion in laying hens from June un
til October by increasing the con
sumption of animal protein and
producing an appetizing effect on
the birds when egg production is
subnormal. The best time to feed
the mash is about two o'clock
each day. Three pounds of the
regular laying mash moistened
with hot water or milk for each
100 birds will give excellent re
sults.
QUESTION: When should I se
lect tobacco plants for next year's
seed?
ANSWER: Select the seed
plants before the tobacco is top
ped. Select the plants that are
typical of the variety planted with
the leaves well spaced on the
stalk. Bag the selected plants in
14 pound paper bags just before
the first bloom opens to prevent
cross-pollination. Prune the bran
ches of the seed pod to three or
four in order to give room for
development under the bag and
apply the bud worm bait to the
seed pods before bagging. One
plant will produce about oue-lialf
ounce of seed aud, for best results,
the plants should again be selec
ted alter the tobacco is matured.
QUESTION: How soon after
shearing should sheep be dipped?
ANSWER: The sheep should be
dipped from ten days to two weeks
after shearing when all cuts made
at shearing have healed. Usually
one dipping is sufficient, but if
any ticks, lice or mite^ are pres
ent, the dipping should be repeat
ed ten days later to destroy any
parasites that may have hatched
from eggs since the first dipping.
The treatment should be made in
the morning of a warm sunny day
so that the fleece will get thor
oughly dry before night. Any
standarcMlip mixture will give
good results if directions are fol
lowed.
SAFE TRAVEL
I've ridden on all kinds of autos
and trucks.
On single-foot ponies and bronchos
that buck;
On hand-car and coal-car. horse
cart and dray.
On Iceboat and bobsled, on sulky
and sleigh.
I've ridden on trolley car, horse
car caboose,
Sailboat and steamboat and tippy
canoes;
On Pullman, on fiat-car, wagons
of hay,
On merry-go-rounds, even a one
hoss shay.
But the^^afest and sauest vehicle
to ride
Is the kind opponents of Volstead
deride;
It's hard to stick on. but just re
collect
That the old Water Wagon seldom
gets wrecked!
Baseball is 100 years old this
year, and some of the umpires
smell even older than that.
