HOUSEHOLD RAG8

_ AND THEIR USES

The relation of rags to the house-

keeper system is no negligible quant- ity, and youcan measure the capacity of the housekeeper by the manner in which she classifies her housekeeping rags. All rags used in housekeeping are ciassiiiable, and have names. Some have hems. The housekeeper being methodical, has a certain place in which to keep all rags, and she has respect for them as her daily help- ers. There is scarcely a piece of cloth that comes into the house, that, hav- ing served its original purposes, is not of value in the lowly class where it eventually ' arrives. in the house- keeper’s linen closet there is one shelf devoted to rags. Here you will find window rags. dust cloths soft old lin- en pieces. lamp rags for polishing the furniture. and, the bathtub, woollen pieces for scouring silver, cloths to serve for fish and for frying the salad. and pieces to be utilized at a mom_e_nt's_nQtice for whatever need appears.

Then there are the dressmakiug

pieces' mysterious little bundles of left-over pieces of owns, ready to serve for repairs valuable as long as the gown lasts and no longer. One of the most convenient chests for such pieces may be made of an ordinary

pine box bought from the grocer for ten cents. an then covered neatly, with cretonneand a variance of the same. What a triumph of orderliness is realized when once these small bundles of prospective patches find a place to stay where they belong and are in nobody’s way, available at s. moment's notice.

So important is the rag family that

nowadays in the housekeeping depart- ment of the best shops every kind of a rag is purchasable, from a face cloth to a dishcloth and even a stout cloth to put in the mop. lt is on ac- count of themany distinct kinds of cloths needed in the house that a spec- ial place should be found in which to keep them.

The rag bag is not such a feature

of the home as it was in the day when the rag man looked there for his sup- plies. The rag man obviously has gone into more lucrative business than rag collecting, and so the home must work out its rag problem in some other way. Not corners of drawers and cup- b0B1‘dl. and shelves. the closet floor. the top of the wardrobe, the sideboard cabinet, nor any other place save a deflinte locality, is the place to leave rags.

Ihave known nund d f hi

lgnber-neck that it is contagious and

at there was b l t i ' to check it. a 3° u ° y “° femedy

This summer I detemined to find if

possible the cause and remedy. I re. quested some of my neighbors that I would like to have the first fowl that they discovered in their yards that had limber-neck. Iwas soon reward- ed with a. frying pan puilet that had a plain case. She would stand around with her head' to the ground. had lost complete control of her neck. which was perfectly limber, saliva running from the mouth.

My first move was to see whether

or not it was contagious. I placed the silk puilet in a coop with one about the same age that was in perfect health. I kept them in one day and night, and the first morning I found the silk puilet dead. I fed the well puilet as usual and allowed the dead one to remain in the coop until I noticed that the geen flies began to buzz around. I then removed the dead puilet to a suitable and convenient place and proceeded with a post mor- tem examination. I first picked all the feathers off, to be sure that there were no bruises about it that could have caused the trouble. Finding the skin all in a perfect condition, I cut the neck open, found nothing wrong

.there; next I cut opeu the crop' and

there to my horror. found unmistak- able evidence; it was almost full of working maggots. Not necessary to go any further. This satisfies me as to the cause. and also satisfied me that it could not be contagious.

I reported to my neighbor who was

so kind to furnish me with the subject, thesresuits of my investigation. He seemed greatly surprised and did not seem to think that the cause.

Why. said he, I thought maggots

would be good for chickens. He says they are still dying.

What do you do with your dead

chickens, I asked.

Oh, I throw them over the garden

fence when I find them in the yard.

Ongoing about the place I found

several dead carcases and some were alive with maggots and the chickens eating. I asked him to go out among the weeds and highways and hedges and gather up all the dead chickens he could find, kill all that were sick, and burn them together, clean up his yards and report to me in a few days. He promised that he would and on next seeing him he informed me that he had not noticed any more with lim- her-neck. .

Not long after this, one morning on

going out to feed I noticed a hen on the roost with her bead hanging down. I approached her but she would not notice me. I raised her head up and as soon as I would turn her loose she would drop it down again. Weil, I saw at once that I had a case of llmber-neck. I at once went to work to find out where she got the maggots, but could no,t find any in the weeds. I looked under the barn and there found s. dead chicken, but from what cause it died, I don’t know, as it was already alive with maggots, and a frying size chicken was standing eating them as fast as it could pick them up, and its crop was completely filled. I caught the chicken, put it up in a coop, and before night it developed into a case of limber-neck. I burned the hen and sick chicken and made a close look for any more dead ones; that was the last of it.

This satisfied me more fully as to

the cause of limber-neck, and that it was not contagious, except in case they should eat the maggots from the dead. I next went to work to find a. remedy, but as I had killed and burned all the sick ones, I had to wait until I could get another case. I soon found one from one of my neighbors. I concluded that something that would kill the maggots and not injure the fowl would do the work, and my first experiment proved a success. I have tried several since then and have not lost but one case, and that was left ex- posed in the hot sun in a coop until the hot. sun killed it. The remedy I used ls as follows: Three drops of spirits of turpentine in»a teaspoonful of water three times a day, until the fowl can and shows a desire to eat; during the treatment I force a small piece of bread down the throat, fol- lowed with a teaspoonful of clean water to wash down. The bird is then placed in a cool place until able to walk about, then is let loose. In most cases I have found one or two days' treatment enough-to effect a cure. I don’t think a few maggots will kill or give iimber-neck, but do claim that an overdose of them with nothing' else in the crop will kill.- Archie E. Vandervorb, in Maritime Farmer.

HOW TO GET RID OF MITES- POULTRY DIVISION. EXPERI- MENTAL FARM

In the warm weather there are

frequent eifquiries as to why hens stop laying. In some cases the hens have laid very well all season. but suddenly the egg yield begins to fall off and sometimes ceases entirely.

It is needless to expect a flock to

lay equally well at all seasons. A flock that has laid heavily during the winter will generally slow up towards the middle of the summer and when they begin to moult, but when the egg yield drops rapidly until it prac- tically ceases without any apparent reason, suspect vermin. _

Of all the many varieties of vermin

that infest fowl the Red Mite is the most troublesome. Unlike the ordin- ary hen louse they are not as a rule found on the fowl, neither are they killed by dusting, as the ordinary body louso is. These pests breed very ‘rapldly, especially during the hot weather, usually in cracks containing filth or in dirty nesting material. They are not red in color as is popularly supposed, but gray; it is only after they have come in contact with the fowl and have become filled with blood that they appear red. The Young mites are white and have only six legs but after casting their skins which they do several times, they have eight legs. The cast skins may be seen like a white powder around the per- ches, this often being the first indica- tion of the presence of mites. They are' able to live and reproduce for months without animal food, the first food of the young probably being filth or decayed wood. They thrive best in dark, dirty houses, and have been found to exist in houses the following season after the fowl had been. remov- ed. They usually attack the_ birds at night, but are sometimes found on laying hens and they frequently drive broody hens from the nest. They pierce the skin with their needle-like jaws and suck the blood. after which they retire to the seclusion of the

and crevices of the roosts, other parts of the house. They man or other mammals, caus-

UTILITY BREEDER8.

Now is the time, when the pullets

are growing up into little hens, to mark the ones that are developing most rapidly and showing signs of early layers from which to select the future breeding stock.

Experiments show the early develop-

ing pullets will make the best and persistens layers. By banding s. score or more of these Quickest developing pullets and using the best of them for the breeding pens, a good start can be made towards a better lay- fiock. Better yet, if these pullets thus selected can be trap-nested until Febuary or March, a still fuller know- ledge of their ,egg-producing quail- ties can be learned. Also the type of eggs the pullets lay and by the daily handling given, the relative vigor, ha- bits. of industry. and activity will be- come more evident.

flesh and weight when laying heavily when properly fed have some constitu- tional lack in vigor and are unsafe as a means of perpetuating the best

stock. _

VVhen selecting the pullets for the

breeding pen, select at least double the number needed, and mark them to designate first, second and third choice. As they develop to full mat- turity, some that seemed inferior will appear as good or even better than the most promising at an earlier stage in their development, but the prefer- ence for breeders should be given to the ones making earliest development, other things being equal.

cockereis holds true as for the selec- tion of pullets, in regard to early development and vigor. , In addition, the cockerels should be the sons of hens that are known to be heavy, per- sistent layers. If possible, the heavy laying inheritance should be confirm- ed by similar excessive egg produc- tion quality in preceding generations from which the cock bird has descend- ed. Above all, aim for abundant vig- or in all breeding stock.-Farm and Fireside.

THE DAIRY

`FEED'|NG DAIRY CATTLE

There are two important things to

take into account in feeding cows- the quantity of the milk produced in the cow herself. The cow. to give

'must have all the nu

tem: the next, the good dairy cow puts all the food that she digests aside from that of support, into milk, and it is a waste of food to cram cows with more food than they can assimilate. All that can be done in the matter is to supply a cow with food that will make good healthy blood, as from this the milk is secreted, and it is the individuality of the cow that can use a less or greater amount of blood in the elaboration of milk which explains why cows are good or poor dairy animals. To withhold food, or furnish it of a character so poor that nature is put to hard straits to digest enough of it to support the body, is to put a check upon milk secretion, so that on the one hand s. cow may be gorged to the point where appetite is destroyed so far as maintaining milk-flow is concerned; and, on the other, poor feeding may have a re- sult as seen above, and there is not enough digested to support the animal and maintain milk-flow. So that the dairyman who succeeds must have, first. -a dairy cow, then an abundance of the best foods, cheaply procuced. because of quick and luxuriant grow- th, and so feed that‘the cow shall digest it all. As a. rule, it will be found that about 10 lbs. of grain is all that-the average dairy cow can consume and digest in' 24 hours, and beyond that point the cramming of a cow should be attempted with a more succulent ration. composed as far as possible of starchy and such-like elo- ments.

LUNG WORM OF H068.

T110 111118 worm of hogs (Strongyius

paradoxus) belongs to the same fam- ily as does the worm which infcsts the llmgs ofsheep and calves. Losses 111110118 hogs in Minnesota caused by this worm are not very heavy. Occas- ionally isoiated outbreaks have been reported in which several pigs have died. When this worm isl present in the air passages of the hog in large numbers it produces a condition known as ve'-mir-mis pneumonia, which may occur at any "Mc of the year. but is more frequently observed in the late summer and early Fall. Like many other parasites, this one finds low. ewaml1Y. or badly drained land favorable for its development.

Description-The male averages an

inch and female about an inch and a half long. and both resemble whitish- brown threads.

Life history-The lm. biatorv is the

same as that of the Strongylus iiiarla which infests the lungs of the sheep.

Symptoms-Frequent spells of

coughing will be noticed, especially after exercising. Loss of flesh may result as well as untliriffiness. Some pigs will recovcr and become thrifty again. Death will occur in others, which is probably duo to the watery condition of the lungs and heart. This disease is sometimes mistaken for the

~Pullets or .hens that noticeably lose 'chronic form of hog cholera, but the

presence of the worms and of shot- like bodies will enable one to be sure of the cause of the trouble. The history of the disease should also be considered.

Treatment-Medicinal agents are of

little value.

Prevention- All hogs exccfpt those

badly infested should be removed to new pastures. The old pasture should be plowed, or pastured with animals other than swine. The hog houses and troughs should be thoroughly disin- fected during the Spring months.

THE COMMON ROUND WORM OF HOGS.

The same rule for the selection of ‘ ..___._.

The round worm of hogs (Ascaris

suilla or iumbricoldes) belongs to the same family as the round worm which infests the horse. It is very common ,parasite among hogs, especially a- mong young unihrlfty pigs. it rc- mains free in the small intestine as a rule, but at times has been f'ound in the stomach, bile ducts, and gall blad- der, as well on in tho duct leading to the pancreas. When present in suill- cient numbers they injure ‘liic pig by consuming part' of tho digested food and by filling up tho intestine. producing diarrhoea, collc, and indi-

gestion, resulting in cmaciation. lf-

tho worms ascend in "~=~ stomach they will produce nausea and vomiting. The adult worm is sometimes found in the manure.

Description- This is a round grey-

ish-white worm tapering at both ends.

-°'-' i The male is from seven to ten inches

long while the female measures from ten to twelve inches.

Life history- Tho female lays her

feeding out of dirty troughs and kept in dirty pens take up the young worms *which rcach maturity only in the intestinal canal.

Treatment- Treating large mim-

bers of hogs is rather difficult. Great care should be taken when drenching hogs as they may ,easily be killed by the medicine finding its way to the lungs, causing pneumonia. Medicines may be put in fluid feed. This should be poured into a trough where all can share it equally. Hogs separated in bunches of ten can be readily treated in this manner. From two to tcn grains of santonln per jig, and from one-half to one grain or areca nut per pound have been used rather ex- tensively with very good results.

The Veterinary Department of the

Iowa State College has recommended the following treatment as quito sat- isfactory for a hundred-pound pig:

Santoin-8 grains.

Areca nut-2 drama.

Calomcl-1 grailn.

Sodium bicarbonate-l dram. Mix the powder in tho above pro

portions with some moist ground iocd, and see that each hog secures as nearly as possible an equal sharc. Keep hardwood ashes where 'the_hogs can have access to them at all times. Crcolin, carbonic acid, and other coal- tar products, in solution, mixed in the feed, aro.bighly recommended.

THORN-HEADED WORM OF HOG8

While tho thorn-headed worm

(Echinorynchus gigas) is quite com-

mon in Minnesota. it seldom causes trouble of s. serious nature. it is

ugh its skin instead. By attaching it- self to the mucous membrane of the small intestines it pro.'luces*on the outer surface raised nodules which

somewhat resemble those of tubercu- los s.

Description- lt is white in color,

with cross markings at the upper ex- tremity, and is about the size of a lead pencil. The body terminates rather abruptly with a globe-slispcd head which is armed with six roi-_ .1 of I sharp booklets. The female is i»-I. .-.- 1 twelve inches long while the nr.-i. l | much shorter, averaging onl- ..;.l.».- I three or four inches in length

Life History- Tho female ln' .1 hor

eggs in the intestinal contents, where they pass out with tho nw"--~~ After reaching tho soil they are taken up by the white grub worm (larval form of the May bug) which acts as the inter- mediate hosts other than thc grub

worm.

Symptoms- Symptoms are only no-

ticeable when ow- worm is pre-sent in large numbers. Deranged appetite. indigestion, diarrhoea, unthrlfilness followed by emaciation and somo- timcs death, are the most prominent

signs.

Treatment- Medicinal agents are

of little value.
