Raising Pork Is a Profitable Sideline on the Dairy Farm — 117xpert Advises One Brood Sow for Bach Ten Cows on Average Farm. (Contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture, 'Toronto,) LACKLEGof potatoes is a dis- ease that has been causing heavy losses to potato grow- ers in many districts during the past few years. As the name of the disease implies, there is a black- ening of the lower .parts of stems of the potato plant affected. Accom- panying the discoloration there Is a soft rotting condition followed by shrinkage and death. The disease is usually first noticed in the young growing crop when the plants are from foul' inches to a foot high. In looping over a field in which the disease is present, it will be seen that the tops o4 certain plants have last their bright dark green appearance, having faded to a more or less dirty yellowish or brownish color. These tops will be somewhat limp and drooping, and in some cases where the disease is well advanced will have dropped right over. If a careful examination of the lower stems of these affected plants is made it will be seen that they are black- ened and soft rotting. This black- ening and soft rotting is more noticeable below the soil than above it. By carefully removing the soil from around an affected plant the blackening and soft -rotting can us- ually he traced to the seed tuber. Aa a rule in such cases the seed tuber will be found to be in a soft -rotting, slimy condition, the soil immediately beneath it being in a wet, •puddled condition due to the wetness from the soft -rotted seed tuber. In such. cases the disease in, the plant has developed from an affected seed tuber and pass- ed up the young growing stents, caus- ing them to dieeolo' and rot rind eventually to fall over dead or dying. Sometimes all the sterns in a hill will be affected and the whole plant die down. Sometimes. however, only a few of the stems will be affeeted and the remainder will appear to develop normally. If the :season iso, dry one a number of tuber: may be Produced on such plants tt'hiell may mattlre and appear alright at harvest, but if � the season is a wit one the disease will spread .o the tubers and rause them to rot in a soft, slimy roudition s ‘7.)74•0 tie tr. 0,1.t 1f 01 e before harvest, v 'st, or if they are liar - 'l •, R vested before the rot is very notice- able in them. :hey are liable to rot h•:' a In storage of t0 carry the disease over to the 1 \t 3.

ConseopleatlY, the ',realest care ::hotted be taken in the selection of seed tubers. 3t any indication of rot, ,cher wet or dry, is found 00 a tuber, 0r any brown discoloration of the potato tissue when cul into, it should be discarded and not: used for seed purposes, Though spraying with Bordeaux Mixture will help to control fungus diseases, such as late and early blight of potatoes, it is of no use in controlling blackleg. Blackleg is a bacterial disease that gets into the plant either from an affected seed tuber or from the soil, it works from below upward and by the time it gets much above the ground it will usually have killed the plant. Con- sequently, spraying the tops of po- tatoes will not prevent the disease. To prevent the disease developing, plant only sound, healthy, well-select- ed ell-selected seed and do not plant on land that has produced blackleg plants the previous season,—Prof. D. EI. Joaes, 0.

Pigs and cows work very well to- gether as the hog is one of the most economical meat producers on the farm, and does especially well on dairy by-products—skitnmilk, butter- milk and whey. The number of pigs per 00050 will depend on the kind or dairying the farmer is engaged in. If selling milk for direct consumption, for the milk condensory, or for the powder milk factory, there is no by-product, hence it. Is doubtful if hogs, under these conditions, will pay at all, os1e- dally with an uncertain market. Whey, tram the cheese factory, will Ifot support so many pigs per cow as will skimmilk and buttertniik from the farm dairy, or creamery. On the average, we recommend one brood sow for each ten cows supply- ing milk to a cheese factory, and one sow for five or six cows 'where cream or butter is sold from the farm, If a sow reefed 10 or 12 pigs each year, this would work out at from one to two pigs per cow on a dairying farm. There are times when a much greater number than this would he 0)1 the farm, as the pigs would be in various stages of maturity. The farmer and successful pig -raiser aims to keep up a regular procession of pigs from the sow to the bacon fac- tory. This' plan tends to stabilize markets, prevents the gluts which frequently demoralise the bacon busi- ness and causes farmers to stay in the hog game, instead' of playing "in and out" which is not good for any business.—Prof. EI. 7d.

Good Combs Beekeeper's Aseet,--- Rest tare Always Produced During Heavy Honey Plow—Rest of Care Should 13e Taken of New Combs, (contributed, by Ontario ' Departmeet 00 Agriculture, Toronto.)

In the average of seven years' experiments it Wae found in planting the potatoes one, three, five and seven inches deep that the highest average results were obtained from planting three int 1t. e, and the second highest from Pl41071ng five inches in depth. Under uv'ragr. conditions it is usually wise to plant about four inches but the depth of planting would, of course depend consider- ably upon the ritually and the eol'1- dttion of the soil. If the soil is a sandy loam, the depth of planting may be deeper titan in the case of a heavy damp soil' In experiments extending over a period of ten years it has been found that about four heshels per acre in- crease has been obtained front billing the potatoes 'in comparison with level cultivation, -"-Dr. C.

An asset to the extracted honey producer 10 condo, goad combs and plenty of combs, It is sometimes a problem to obtain and maintain a sufficient stock, especially if the apiary is being enlarged. Moreover, there are several important problems associated. Fnndiutentally, good combs are obtainable only when built on full sheets or wire foundation. Such combs will I'ndure; naturally built combs will not stand the wear and tear of repeat'" honey extrac- tion. Beside being weak and likely to break out of the frames, natural- ly drawn canbt• usually eontein drone cells to sant ' extent, if not to excess.

It is a maxim to have only combs of all vvorker cells reinforced with wire; to this end, full sheets of foundation t are essential and eco'tomic:ti. ' The best eoliths are always pro- duced during a :Loney How, yes, schen there is a surp?ns coming in; good combs may be produced in the earlier part of the season, just prior to the cropping season; yet, regardless of season, the best 01 combs are obtain- able only on strong colonies. Conversely. weak colonies, without the stimulation of the honey llow, fail to draw out the foundation even- ly and fully: holes may even be gnawed in the foundations, which holes, when built in, will probably be filled with drone cells. With care, frames of full foundation, to be drawn out, may be supplied alter- nately with combs of brood or honey. Moreover, the tendency is for bees to bulge the old combs, and to corre- spond, only partially -draw out the foundation of the new comb, perhaps leaving the corners open. The best results are usual when several frames with foundation are grouped in one side of the hive, or a full super given. In order to induce the attaching of the comb to the bottom bar, new combs may be drawn out in the super, over a powerful colony and during a looney flow. Having acquired new combs, good care should be talten of them. If they are intended for extracted honey production, they should be kept apart Prom the brood nest, not allow, ing brood to be reared in thein, Combs darkened with brood rearing are riot considered as wholesome for honey production as are.virgin (new) combs, Furthermore it is considered on good evidence that dark combs will darken and hence deteriorate the light grades of honey. One gen- eration of brood in a comb may not injure it for light honey cropping: 1t is thought by 001116 to toughen and strengthen the comb, yet the more particular producers are equipping with virgin combs for the supers. These choice extracting combs are a valuable asset. Preserved from year to year, they should endure. Although bee labor has not advanced in prise, all bee supplies are increasingly wet- ly, hence good combs are to -day a greater asset than ever.—Dr. Button 501. Gates, 0.

The use of at least a limited amount of bedding for beef cattle is advisable, but the extravagant use of straw, coarse hays, etc„ for this pur- pose should be discouraged.

They do not want to put a quarter in the bank at a time, and before they know it, it is gone for trifles. The Government has provided a simple plan to enable you to save that quar- ter in such a way that it will earn you more nnoney. Twenty-five cents buys a Thrift Stamp. Sixteen Thrift Stamps become a War Savings Stamp, for which the Govern- ment will pay you $5.00 in 1924. If you lend the Government your sav- ings in this way, you can make your money earn over 41/2% compound in- terest as often as you save $4.00 odd. That is more than Savings Banks pay you. This is not only easy and profitable in- vestment, but patriotic investment, be- cause the Government needs money for the heavy financing of the recon- struction period.
