Two Lice Elimination Methods for Poultry
Practical lice control for poultry presented by The Dairy Farmer outlines two methods. One uses an artificial dust bin to clog lice breathing openings with dust, while the second employs a dip made by dissolving one ounce of powder in a gallon of warm water to submerge birds. The writer advocates using the dip in warm weather and switching to dusting thereafter, claiming long-term success.
Rotation in Green Feed of Highest Importance
Farm Journal notes a yearly rotation for poultry green feed. Start in November with options such as ordinary cabbage spinach or New Zealand spinach through December. Late cabbage feeds extend to January, then dried green feeds like immature alfalfa red clover or soybean hay cover November to May. After May, dandelions red clover bluegrass and red clover range sustain through July or August, with cabbage and spinach returning for the final feed cycle.

Avoid Crowding in Poultry Rearing Says Cornell Expert
L M Hurd of Cornell University warns overcrowding causes toe picking cannibalism and feather pulling. Do not keep large numbers of chicks together. Three hundred chicks per house is usually enough. Provide grass range and ample feeding space at hoppers to curb bad habits. Give one feeder three feet per 100 chicks in week one, then four feet per 100 after week one.

Laying Hens Need Water to Guard Frost
Poultry experts warn that 100 laying hens require about three to four gallons of water daily, while nonlaying hens and pullets need about half as much. The moisture creates frost on the inside of the poultry house in cold weather. Eliminate frost by thorough wall insulation and a straw loft or ventilation to remove excess moisture.
Incubation Planning Press Lays Out Hatch Timelines
The report states eggs incubated for shorter periods yield quicker hatches with better quality than longer incubation. It says hens can be kept for up to two weeks with reasonable hatch expectations, but vitality declines after that. Chicks reportedly hatched from eggs three months old claim maturity, while one day old eggs hatch a day sooner than two weeks old.
Growth Without Forcing Body Development in Pullets
Growth without forcing body development should be assured before production begins. When chicks hatch in the normal season there is ample time to rear the bird to maturity before winter. Animal protein can be greatly reduced until the pullets mature. Normal development will shape body size and the alignment of protein in the mash will allow pullets to grow without undue stimulation of egg producing organs.
Proof That It Pays to Build Terraces
A study shows 40 bushels per acre on virgin land versus 10 on eroded land after 30 years cultivation. Farmers' Bulletin 160-P by USDA describes Manzum and level terrace types, construction steps, and care. It notes approximate costs and offers free copies by writing to the Office of Information in Washington.

Second Cutting Clover Mixed With Corn For Silage
A discussion suggests pulling green forage drops for silo use, with second cutting clover as a prime addition to corn ensilage. The mix raises protein, boosts palatability, and should not exceed about 40 percent clover. Experiments show good results when clover layers are interleaved with corn, though clover should stay uncured to avoid overly dry silage.
Fighting Cattle Lice with Dry Preparations in Winter
A dry powder mix using equal parts Sabadhia seed and sulphur applied to the neck and poll reduces cattle lice significantly for four to six weeks. About five pounds of each ingredient treats roughly 100 head of cattle, with reapplication likely needed after the period.
Keep After the Weeds Of first importance among farm faska Ja killing weeds
Keep After the Weeds Of first importance among farm tasks signs the National Farm Journal. Cut them burn them douse them with chemicals. Kill them with weed killing implements. Pasture them with sheep use the method most certain to keep weeds from seeding. The easiest and most economical method is the one to me. Yet it might be worth while to halt using any acythe whether you need to or not just to make you feel badly enough to plant clean seed next spring.

Agricultural Hints and Hog Breeding in Rural Counties
Agricultural hints urge profitable wheat fertilization and clover yields, with range pellets and brooders moved to clean areas. Mulches should keep plants cool in winter and prevent budding in spring. Thirteen years of Hancock County pig club work boosted pure bred hogs as community breeding centers. South Carolina farmers feed other stock on oats, limit oats to 25 percent of hog grain, and report larger piglets on fresh land versus prior land. Nell Smith, Onslow, N. C.
