A new cooking moth trap by FE H Siegler of the US Department of Agriculture replaces the labor intensive banding method for destroying the cooling net. The trap provides an attractive site for larvae to spin cocoons and prevents moths from escaping after emergence.
The article details a burlap and wire trap for codling moths tied around tree trunks, with tar coating to seal edges, noting it complements spraying. It also explains silage fermentation in silos, stating airtight conditions prevent decay and top coverings reduce spoilage.
Skim milk is a protein feed lacking starches and fat, not a strong fat producer alone. When mixed with corn in proper proportions the skim milk supplies protein while the corn provides carbohydrates, forming a balanced ration for optimal animal development.
The article emphasizes soil moisture capacity as a key value of well-pulverized soil. It notes that adding organic matter aids water retention and feeds plants, while pulverization alone is less effective without humus and moisture content.
A Practical calf feeding note suggests using corn, bran, and ground oats as substitutes for fat in skim milk. It advises grinding ingredients finer, keeping grain dry, and ensuring calves two to three weeks old have access to feed without lingering in corners to avoid digestion issues. Ground flaxseed is also mentioned as a fat substitute mixed with skim milk.
A device keeps chicken water out of their basin by an enclosing shield over the mouth of the vessel. The water container is protected at the top to prevent contamination or spillage. The design aims to reduce access by chickens to the water surface.
An article describes a poultry watering basin covered by a screen that prevents fowl access to water while allowing air exposure. Drinking locations are situated at the basin’s side, facilitating access for birds.
In the corn belt many yields are low due to poor cultivation. Many workers try to harvest more than they can profitably handle and neglect weed control. Better cultivation is essential to improve corn production.
As soon as strawberries are picked, renew the bed if clean and thrifty. Mow tops off, hoe out old weak plants, and thin to a row of strong new plants ten inches apart. Cultivate the rest of the season.
Farmers use excess tomatoes to feed hogs after cooking. Hogs reject raw green tomatoes unless cooked. Surplus produce is stored in airtight barrels for future use, with top layers decaying while the lower layers stay usable.
A brief bulletin explains soil conditions and contrasts loose versus lumpy soils. It warns that loose soils prevent rapid drying that harms crops, while pulverized soil could cause fast drying and affect crop markets.
The lesson explains Ezekiel prophesying from Babylon to bolster captives, denounces faithless leaders who feed themselves and neglect the afflicted, and presents the faithful shepherd Jesus Christ who will seek, heal, and restore Israel. It foresees a Golden Age with Christ as king and Israel restored.
