Wandering Farmers.

If we would learn to do, it must be by
doing. The best way-the only way--to
learn farming and a farm is to go upon it
and do every detail of the work. until
practice teaches us how to perform it prep
erly. If during this time the senses are
kept alert, ways OF improvement will nat
urally be found in many places. Learn
the theory and apply it in practice, and in
nine cases out of ten success will follow.
In many cases, however, theory must yield
to practice, in part at least, and the very
best results have been reached when they
were tremendously blended. A very COM
mon mistake among our younger men is
that they learn one method at one place,
then $50 West" or East to an altogether
different climate and soil, there to begin
to apply the same methods. 1t will take
time TO adopt and learn to apply new prin-
ciples. Theory is necessarily more or less
universally applicable, but person must
get the practice where he expects to use it,
and the sooner he gets it the better.
Many keep up wandering life, selling out
here and buying there, because they can
make a few dollars. When they finally
decide to settle down they have little
knowledge of the conditions OF the farm,
and must consequently begin at the bot
tom again. To profit by others expert
ence one should apply what knowledge he
has, if at all possible, when it is applicable,
and keep on getting more theory as he
progresses. Many failures are due to all
theory, all practice, either or both wrongly
applied. Every section of country has its
drawbacks as well as its advantages. 1t is
true there are places in which persons
would feel better satisfied, but unless there
are serious objections to the present local
ity, change may be detrimental to pro-
gress.-O. j. Farmer.

improvement of DAIRY Stock.

There is no such thing as suddenly
changing the dairy stock of the country or
any other State or locality. Improvement
is matter of development ard growth.
We must build on the bases of what we
have. A few individuals may be able to
buy improved COWS and thus better their
herds at once. But the great majority
can do no such thing. There are not i'm
proved COWS enough in the country to do
It, even if the dairymen had the means to
buy them. The only feasible way is to
raise them. How is this to be done? 1t
is by using improved males. These are
not too plenty, and it will take time to
raise improved males enough for the
service of all the dairy herds in the coun-
try. But good serviceable bulls, vast
improvement on the scrubs, are much
plentier than they were few yea ago,
and breeders of improved stock ar now
supplying these males at very reasonable
prices, when We consider the compare
lively short time it Is since the demand for
improved live stock sprang up in this
country. Now every neighborhood, il not
every herd, may have bull that will i'm
press marked improvement on his off
spring. Get the best you can, and be sure
every time to buy one that possesses quail
ties superior to your herd. This insures
Improvement, which will show in a
marked and practical manner in few
wears. 1t is not necessary that one should
be judge of fine points in order to have
iirss-class herd. The main point is the
selection of male. Then put every COW,
as she comes into the herd, to the critical
test of the pail and the churn. This test,
if properly made, settles all disputes, even
when the doctors disagree. Keep for use
only the best. A few years of this practice
by all dairymen throughout the country
should double the average yield per COW of
te-day.-T B. Curtis, IN Nebraska Fayaer.
