W B Gilpert argues pigs should begin eating at three to four weeks, with milk and shorts, then pasture on clover or peas and rape. He favors open-range rearing with shelter, emphasizes varied grain mixtures, root-based winter feed, and thorough cleanliness. Proper moisture control, dry bedding, and earth for digestion are stressed to maximize pig growth and profitability.
Howard Hackedden of the Experiment Station discusses rations for breeding ewes. Clover hay plus grain outperforms timothy hay with grain, and clover hay alone sustains ewes to lambing. After lambing, add grain. corn silage with clover hay and grain works best, though moldy silage is dangerous.
The Bureau of Animal Industry released a list of horses imported for breeding in 1914 with certificates of pure breeding. The table names animals, registration numbers, importers, and breed department numbers, and totals are summarized with access on request. Celery blanching methods noted include earth mounding, beard placements, and use of drain tiles plus patent papers or wood bleachers.
Dr A and Alexander offer practical advice to reduce bloat in cattle. They warn grass rich in clover or alfalfa can cause bloat and advise gradual pasture introduction, dry hay before turnout, avoiding moisture laden fields, and providing salt and lime mix. They emphasize early summer pasture checks and carrying remedies for bloat.
Investigators note that corn is good feed but not best alone for hogs. A mixture with protein like tankage or linseed meal improves growth. hogs fed corn alone become fat and weak. A study with sixty five hogs across twelve rations shows corn with other feeds yielding better gains than corn alone. Additionally powdered hellebore with water can prevent fly breeding in manure, a cheap, fertiliser‑neutral control.
United States Department of Agriculture Bulletin 228 notes that alfalfa water use can be managed through pasturing or clipping to fit drought. When moisture is scarce, grazing in fall or spring and leaf clipping conserve water and support yields. Summer grazing offers a practical drought buffer, while persistent drought or ample moisture alters outputs. Intermittent rotation across multiple fields enhances production in low water years, a practice common in Australia and New South Wales.
South Carolina Experiment Station notes that crops require 300 to 600 pounds of water per pound of dry matter, urging a dust mulch to curb surface evaporation. A shallow mulch formed by breaking the top two to three inches of soil can be effective. renewal after rain is needed as dampening reshapes particle arrangement and capillarity resumes.
The spreader adapts for non demanding field work during peak seasons and harvest. It can move crops from field to root cellar using a simple end board and crank mechanism. Also notes moisture management to dry soils, advising July August sun and winds to sap moisture, and using moisture fed to weeds in cornfields.
A collage of salad ideas and household hints. Recipes include Russian Salad Benares Salad Cabbage and Raisin Salad with mayo and French dressing notes. Additional tips cover rubber goods care shoe cleaning white fabrics and simple home remedies for minor ailments and a milk frosting recipe.
A vintage guide notes universal ideas for salad dressings. French dressing forms base, with variations from Roquefort, green pepper, onion, chives, cucumber, tomato, and canned sauces. Vinegar quality matters, cider vinegar preferred, diluted if strong. add seasonings, pepper, salt, onion juice, and chili or hot sauce for color and zest.
A guide to salad varieties and dressings reflects the era’s colorful presentation. Pineapple Salad combines canned pineapple marshmallows almonds pimento and whipped cream with lemon juice mustard and salt. Grapes and pimento decorate lettuce. Sapago Mold loaf with capers and Worcester sauce suggests savory mold ideas. Nut Salad blends celery apples mayonnaise. Cucumber and Potato Salad uses mayonnaise with parsley and onion. peas and corn enhancers are noted. Gelatin fruit salad served on lettuce completes the spread.
South Jersey potato growers face a bleak season as prices stay low. Farmers defer digging as markets remain weak, while nearby counties profit from pea crops. Port Norris grower John Shradway shipped 37 hampers to Boston and received pennies per hamper. Charles Tribben sent 31 hampers sold at just over a dollar after freight charges.
Fragmentary text from a claim page references Bert Winter and Gov Samuel M. Ralaton along with a Panama exposition trip. A pasted variety of names and anecdotes appears, including a porter and a parlor exchange, ending with a remark on blaming others for bad advice.
A South Staffordshire regiment member recalls a bitterly cold night in the trenches. Billeted in a barn, the men shivered and drifted to sleep. One comrade woke, attempting to put on boots amid the cold. A nearby grunt asks why, with a jokey reply about boots. The piece mixes wartime humor and blunt honesty.
