FARM 0 T QUESTIONS ANSWERED Question: I have some chickens about nine weeks old and several appear to have weak legs. What causes this? Answtef: As only a few of the chicks are affected, it would appear that the diet is well balanced be cause a larger number would show this condition if this were not bal anced. Apparently the birds affected are of low constitutional vigor and cannot utilize the feed offered. All affected birds should be destroyed, but should also be opened and ex amined for worms before final dis position. To be sure about the diet, this should be checked at once to see that it is properly balanced. Question: Will landlords or farm owners share in the soil-conserving payments for land taken out of pro duction of soil depleting crops? Answer: Yes. This payment will be divided among owners, share tenants, and share-croppers in the) same proportion as the principal soil-depleting crop or the proceeds from this crop is divided under the lease or operating agreement. Soil building payments, however, will be made to the producer who in curred the expense in following out the soil-building practices.

Answqr: The best known control is the poisoned corn meal bait. This is made by mixing six heaping teaspoonsful of arsenate of lead and one peck of corn meal. This amount is sufficient for one acre. A small pinch of this poison bait should be dropped in the center of the bud early in the morning when the bud is open. The first application should be made about ten days or two weeks affcqr the plants are set and continued every week or ten days until the plants are topped. Larger amounts of the bait may be mad° by mixing one pound of arsenate of lead with 50 pounds of corn meal.
