What Shall We Do with Our
Calves (?

On nearly every farm where cows are
kept more or less calves are raised, and
the few dollars they bring in the fall or
spring arc looked upon as clear gain to
the farmer. He takes no account Of the
feed, in shape of pasture for the summer,
or coarse hay (Which is good enough for
the younger stock, and entirely forgets
to consider grain ration necessary
The calves are saved in haphazard
way; generally the large growth ones
are sold as veal, while the thin, poor
ones are good enough to be saved, and
the result is lot Of poor scrawny
things barely worth the saving at six
months DID, A little more sense would
be paying investment to many farm
er on this subject A large, wel-bred
calf, with good appetite, is much more
likely to make good COW, or an easily
fattened beef animal It is only by Sc
lections, and breeding from those Sc
lected that farmers will improve their
stock. The time to begin this work is
at the very beginning, when the calf is
dropped. The work Of choosing the
animals to be raised for cows should be
done at once, and the subsequent care
and feed should be such as to develop
the milking propensity. There are
numerous examples Of improvement in
breeding by which the bulk Of herd
has been increased as much as fifty per
cent. in few years. This requires good
care and feed as we'll as good breeding.

Weed Out the Scrubs.

BY D. w. WILSON, ELGIN, ILL.
The great growth Of all sorts Of for
age crops the present season affords dali
ny farmers an opportunity to dispose of
the non-paying COWS Of their herd at u
fair price, and have a goodly sum to
purchase something in their place that
will more than pay for their keep. Well
fattened beef cattle are bringing good
figures now, and will likely continue to
do so the balanse Of the season.
Let the farmer Gull out the poor milk
ers and utilize his good crops Of hay and
corn, turn them into beef, remembering
the old adage, "a little farm well titled, =
applies as well to the dairy A less
number of cattle takes less care, less
feed, less room, aud provided they all
pay profit, give better return for the
investment than large herd Of poor
animals. IF farmers will give this sub
ject some thought they will see how
much better it pays to keep cows that
give returns of $50 to $50 per year,
than $40 to $50.
Even the poor, despised scrub, with a
good, warm stable, and a ration Of grain
at least once day the year round, will
respond to this treatment and make good
returns for the extra care and feed It
is only by continual process of select
ing the best that the ordinary farmer
can hope to raise the quality Of his herd.
The time to do this work is now; make
beginning and see how much easier it
is to have ten COWS yield five hundred
dollars year than twenty-five.

Dairy Dots.

A gentle and manageable COW il worth
good deal more money as milk pro-
Queer than an unbroken and wild one. s
Tobacco and butter make poor COM
bination. A smoker carries the per-
fume with him wherever he goes, and if
in a cool dairy room the milk and but
ter is sure to be contaminated
The proportion of cows to population
is smaller in this country than in any
other. England has one COW to-, about
eight Of population; France one to three;
this country one to ten.
The weight Of testimony is that soft
food or ensilage, and roots, produce more
milk than cry feed. Farmers who want
to secure best returns from the dairy
should provide this sort Of rations for
winter feeding
Salt at regular intervals or in shape of
the rock, IS necessity for the best re-
suits in dairying. Professor Robertson,
of the Ontario experiment station, made
an experiment by taking several COWS
and dividing into lots. TO one salt was
given SO they could use all they wished,
and to the other no salt was furnished,
the feed and care being the same in 9TH
er respects. The lot without salt fell
off in their milk products III per cent,
while the other kept their flow The
lots were changed, and the lot having
no salt fell off l23 per cent. On the
average the lots having no salt fell off
12a per cent. in three months, while
those having free access to salt did not
lessen their milk.
The advantage of using pure bred
bulls Of either the butter or milk breeds
to grade up the herds, is not as we'll APP
preciated by the dairy farmer as they
should be.
Milk becomes vitiated when its secre-
ton is over stimulated.
Thirty thousand Jerseys in the Uni
ted States is the last estimate of the COW
counter:
1t is always some one else that makes.
the poor butter, but if "some one else"
makes all the poor butter in the market
she has the virtue Of being industrious
at least.
The milk room should be away from
the influence of odors Of the farm-yard,
Of the rggeries, or anything that will
hurt the milk.
Dairy farming furnishes constant
source Of income, and it may be carried
on with small capital without danger of
being smothered by larger establish
ments.
Before the late Boston law was put
into execution, it is said sixty per cent.
Of the sellers watercd their milk, and
that the law saves the consumers at

With such proof as the following letter
from w. Fl. Dean, of No. 278 Seventh ST.,
New York, it is not necessary to make the
bare assertion that ALLCocK's Porous
PLAsTERs cure lumbago. Mr.. Dean says:
Some ten days ago / was taken with a
very violent pain in the small of the back.
TWAS so severe that could hardly breathe;
every movement caused great agony. /
finally found out it was lnmbago. Being
entirely helpless, friend sent to the drug
gist and got two ALLcocK's Porous PLAs.
TIERS; these were we'll warmed and applid
tony back, one above the other. In an
half hour, to my great delight and sur.
prise, ! found the pain began to abate. In
two hours I was able to walk out and at
tend to my business, the pain being almost
gone. Next day / was all right but con-
tinued wearing the plasters for week.
