Alfalfa growers everywhere should be on the lookout for the alfalfa wee ,ril, which was introduced Into Utah several years ago from Europe and Is doing much damage there and has spread over Into Idaho. There is no reason to doubt that it would spread and multiply in the states farther east If it were once in troduced. This is an impending calamity to the whole country. By keeping watch we may be able to call its appearance to the attention of our experiment sta tions and the United States depart ment of agriculture, so that war may be waged on the pest In time. The alfalfa weevil Is a small beetle about the size of a grain of wheat. The mature bugs eat holes In the FIELD OF ALFALFA IN FIiOTTBISHINa CONDITION. alfalfa leaves and lay eggs in the holes. The eggs are of a lemou yellow color. They batch out into grubs which are greenish in color, with a white line along the back, and of course are rather small, being the off spring of a beetle no larger than a wheat grain. The grubs feed on the alfalfa leaves and sometimes destroy them com pletely. No more serious danger confronts the agriculture of the country than is found in the possibility of the spread of this little bug Into the states east of the Rocky mountains. Inspect your alfalfa plants for the little holes close to a bud. If they are made by a little grub seud one specimen to the entomologist nt your experiment.station and another to the bureau of plant industry at Washing ton. nml write a letter to go with each specimen, telling the story of your find. Professor Gillette of the Colorado station advises farmers not to receive shipments of bulky merchandise like potatoes, fruit or nursery stock from those regions of Utah or Idaho where this insect occurs, unless the goods have been thoroughly disinfected. It would seem the part of wisdom for the government to adopt preventive nffeiw uras. Alfalfa For Hogs. There Is really no more profitable pasture for hogs than alfalfa. It should not be stocked too heavily In pastur ing. tlic-Kur|lns growth being mowed whenever It needs It. Good hay re sults from that portion which the hog* do not eat. and the new that comes up Is fresh and well liked by the bogs. If is not mowed swine are apt to eat It in patches, killing parts altogether. Weight of Peking Duck*. Peking ducks should weigh more tlian five pounds. The standard weight of the duck is seven pounds and that of the drake eight: They are creamy white, with bright orange colored beaks mid legs. A well bred, well cared for Peking duckling should weigh five pounds at ten weeks of age. THE PROFITABLE CAPON. The best capons are hatched in early spring and operated upon during early summer, before extremely hot weather begins, says the Country Gentleman. The birds are then ready for market during and after the holiday season. Cockerels of any breed can be made to Increase in weight by being capon lzed. The larger breeds will permit of much greater gains apd are therefore more desirable. For the production of capons on the farm the Plymouth Rocks are among the best fowls to keep, since the females may bis kept for eggs and all surplus cockerels ca ponlied. June and July are the best months for the work, becaqse spring batched chicks! reach proper Size then and also because birds caponized at this time ar rive.at the proper age and weight for torkettng at the season when there Is the greatest demand and the best prices prevail. ir X* •-t.
