All mules are, not alike.1 There is

Mixed Feed For Hogs.
Some recent tests at this' .station
(Virginia Agricultural College) show
clearly that mixed feed is superior to
corn alone for hog3. " These grains
were, of course, fed without skim
milk. The 'hogs fed cornmeal and
vater gained .24 of a pound, a head a
day; those fed on cornmeal'two parts
-.nd middlings one'part gained .67 of
a pound a head a day; those fed corn
raeal one part and middlings one part
gained .69 of a pound a head a day;
those fed cornmeal one part and mid
dlings two J parts , s gained JS6Jpf a
pound a head a day. Another lot fed
cornmeal one-part and middlings one
part gained 1.35 pounds a .day,' show
ing that individuality plays a part In
the gains made' by animals; : Still an
other lot fed shelled corn one part
and middlings one part' "gained 1.26
pounds a head a daya. While these
gains are not -large, they' probably
represent the average gains under
farm conditions, and, ,'moI4eover,, they
f w very strikingly that hogs will
j lake better gains if fed some protein
food on the order, of middlings,! lin
ssed meal, gluten; meal, etc!, rather I
than -corn alone. Corn is a carbohy
drate food arid ' very fattening, and

. Make Heavy Bales ' of , Cotton.
One of the first questions we were
asked in regard to cotton was, "How
much does it take to make a bale?"
The answerwas 600 pounds. J; Even
to this day,' according to' commercial
ideas of the matter it takes 500
rounds, to make a" bale. It would be.
-better .it.. every(;larmer
ut that number of .pounds in each
)ale. We can remember when now
and then a farmer would try to over
lo things and make bales of 600 and
700 pounds, .which caused some of
he old wVIv pr? to br?fv.

treme and are making their bales too
light, '; Some do , this because they
think of a small profit theymake on
the bagging and"-ties of fech bale.
This:is a wrong idea.1 Our aim should
bo to sell lint cotton and not bagging
- and t ties. But most farmers who
- Pke small bales do it with the idea
f increasing the number of bales to
tne farm. yThey want to be able to
Bav they, made, so many , bales or so
many bales, to a certain number of
acres. . Men who do. not make much
cotton are in this way trying to keep
up with others who make a great deal
of it.
Aslook at the gin books will show
thatf many bales weighing les3 than
400 pounds are packed. Some weigh
only, 325, to 350. It takes about as
long to haul off cotton for a light bale
as- for a heavy one. It takes about as
long to haul the seed back to the
place -where they are, to ba kept. It
takes fully as long to carry to market
a light bale as it does to market a
heavy one. Besides, light bales ar
ob jected, to -by compress men and -all
cotton mill. men. Why not make it a
rule to put up bales of 500 pounds
each as near as possible? -J. M
Beaty, in Smilhfield Herald.
"v The Fall Army Worm.
These caterpillars are striped in ap
pearance, a black stripe extending
along each side of the body. When
'.full grown they are from an inch to
an inch , and a half long. They aro
not usually serious pests, but in sea
sons when weather and the other con
ditions are just right, they suddenly
appear In gyeat numbers, devouring
various grains, - grasses, cow-peas,
clover, alfalfa, sweet potatoes and
garden crops. Almost, every com
plaint this season mentions them as
attacking crab-grass. Mr. Benbow,
of Guilford County, says they are
swarming on his alfalfa, and they
have been likewise destructive to al
falfa on the Edgecombe .Test Farm
and the Experiment Station Farm
here at Raleigh. Alfalfa is too,. valu
able a plant to lose in this way.
After the worms have become no
ticeable, it takes them only a week
or so to get full grown when they;
burrow in the earth, change to brown
chrysalids or papae, and from these
come out plain, innocent-looking
grayish moths in another week or ten
days. The last brood is thought to
pass the winter in the papae state un
derground. When they thus sudden
ly disappear, the farmer often thinks
that they have died out, when in real
ity they are only transforming to the
adult moth which will lay eggs for
another brood.
If you have a sprayer, It is a sim
ple matter to protect most of the gar
den vegetables by the use of Paris
green In water, but this remedy is
not to be thought of for fields of al
falfa " or crab-grass. But, did you
ever think how it would be to run
a heavy, roller right over the field?
Seems to me that it would literally
crush tlfc life but of them, and it
won't hurt the crop either, provided
it is not to rank and tall. . It is not
likely that we will have another de
structive brood of this pest this fall,
but' if wre do, use the roller. Frank

-'T, German Kale and Spinach..
-The majority of our farmers and
gardeners are well acquainted with
the .turnip and collard for winter
greens. They are both good, but
even in "greens" it is well to have a
variety and to try all the varieties
until we find out the ones we like the
best. Now, we think German kale
one of the very best and certainly
one of the hardiest and easiest raised
of all the salads. There is no trouble
to secure a stand. The seeds are
larger and germinate as quickly as
the turnip. Kalo requires about the
same culture as turnips, and while it
does not make any root crop it makes
more salad and "a finer variety. It
will also last , longer in the spring as
it does not run up to seed so early as
the turnip. If you have never tried
it; be sure and sow some to see how
you like it.
" Spinach is considered the best of
all salads. Personally we do not like
it; so well, but it is certainly worthy
atrial by all gardeners. It Is more
Ufficult to germinate and requires
the richest of soil to yield a paying
crop.- Both kale and spinach should
.have, been sown by the first of Sep
tember, but we suggest you try them
on a small scale as soon as you can
get them in. We raised good kale
last year sown - in" October, though
this is too late in severe winter. It
wants to gat a good growth before
severe weather and then it is very
hardy.Southern Cultivator.
