Ration for steers and pigs and nutritive ratios
A.B.O replies on cheapest fattening rations for steers and pigs. For steers the mix of cotton seed meal and hulls offers cost efficient growth, with optional corn meal addition if surplus grain is available. For pigs, recommendations from Massachusetts and other stations advise corn meal with skim or buttermilk and advise against cotton seed due to toxicity risk.

San Jose scale kerosene oil treatment study
W. M. Scott reports on kerosene spray as a control for the San Jose scale in peaches and plums. It covers summer and fall applications, recommended kerosene percentages, pump choices, safety notes, and experimental results with crude petroleum showing higher risk to trees.
Crude Petroleum as a Scale Remedy Questioned
The article discusses using crude petroleum to combat San Jose scale on trees. It notes the spray left trees oily for six weeks, preventing insect survival, but questions the cost and availability versus refined kerosene. Research from the New York Entomological meeting shows mixed results on tree damage, leading to hesitation to recommend crude oil despite its potential insect-killing effect.
