What the Cow Gives Us,

American dairy interests are start
lingly enormous. They represent an
investment of nearly % times the en-
tire bank capital of the couutry-that
is to say, the bank capital is a little
less than $97l. 600. 900, while the dairy
interests amount TO more than g, 600.

Of course our readers can not swal.
low such frightful figures in lump,
and we will therefore arrange them in
several smaller but still heroic doses.
The number of milch cows is cs,i-
mated at 2l.OOO.OO0. They give each
an average of $50 gallons of milk an-
nually. This would make m aggre-
gate milk production of 1850. OOO, OcO

adultcrating hands of the milkman

this land of freedom.
Inc 4uantlty OF butter manufactured
and used is about l.S5o. OOo, 600 pounds.
and of cheese 6.5Oo. 900 pounds. The
value OF our dairy products for the
last year was nearly $500. 600. 900.
This is $50. 100000 more than the
value of our annual wheat yield. while
it closely approximates that OF our
corn crop. which is the most valuable
OF our farm products.
To support this immense :.airy herd
100, 100000 acres of pasture land are
required worth $3.50, 100000. 1t is

THE CATTLE INDUSTRY.

When business is depressed, take
it up. Seldom has the prospect for
profitable investment in cattle been
better. Prices are low; corn and other
sorts Of feed generally arc reasonable
in price. For beef buy yearlings and
''cr0wd" them for market, II their
present condition will warrant. at p

don't understand getting them to mar
ket at q profit by 80 months or IS
months OF age. don't try to handle beei
cattle where land is worth moro than
$50 per acre. Only men on very cheap
farm land, or on the ranches, can
afford to keep cattle until they are 40
months or four years of age. The
earlier in age steers are slaughtered

For dairy purposes, OF course the
heifcrs do not need the quantity OF
food required to make beef of them.
But calf should be stuntcd in growth
under no circumstances. Beef and
dairy products are each to be consid.
cred as representing business. with
different results i'm the details of their
outcome. The beef producer must be
content, on the start, TO invest, and
''work and wait" for results, from six
months to two or three years. He
must be patient and far-sighted. The
dairyman often sees his returns from
the start. For doing either of the two
branches OF the work. exclusively,
different types of men are as necessary

are exceptional men with abundant !

very successfully. The conservative |
course is to make one or the other in |

the industry has both its advantages
and disadvantages. which the one en-
gaging in them must consider.
Thoughtful care and attention to de- |
tails will add largely to tho percent

should not discourage one.-Oramgc

Wheat, Corn snd Other Things Considrr~d
by m Expert.
There is no royal road to success in
producing size and condition. The
secret, if any. depends upon the Judi.
cious use of a variety of foods as often
as the birds have good appetite for
them. Not the least particle must be
left about, nor must they be fed an in
slant longer than keen relish de-
mands: the great point being to give
them as much as they require to
assuage the pangs of hunger, but to
leave of just in time to make them
fancy they could eat more-in other
words, to leave of with an appetite.
The best staple food. both for old and
young stock. is. undoubtedly. wheat.
Corn, another very useful food for
young stock. is, probably, weight
for price, the cheapest food in the
market. the price being about 3
shillinss and 6 pence per 60
pounds. Oats, il plump and sound. arc
unc4ualed for store birds. With oats,
however. weight holds a very impOr
tant factor. rs unless they scale at least
80 pounds to the bushel they will 10

will BIC great waste. Oats may be got
weighing Is pounds TO the bushel, but
they are not very easy to find. Itpays
the corn factor infinitely better 10 sell
the lighter stuff ut rather low price.
White oats. weighing 40 pounds to the
bushcl. arc good food both for
old and young birds. Thin barley the
birds do not care for. while tho best
barley. being mostly taken for mailing
purposes, is both expensive and diffi-
cult TO obtain. Ground oats is a most
useful food for chickens if good But
while prize chickens amply repay this
outfit. consider it too expensive to be
proiitably employed for full-grown
birds. One thing must be clearly
borne in mind with poultry-that poor.
thin. moldy tailings are dear at any
price and often engcnder disease.
Corn is by far the cheapest. and it
generally is so. In a large yard it may
be extensively used, to the profit Of
both the pocket and the birds.-M y

Peanut Culture.

The peanut is leguminous plant.
1t is also known by the names ground
pea and ground-nut, and in some parts
Of the Southern States it is called pin

tanical name is arachis hypogna. The
exact nativity of the peanut is not

in all tropical countries. most extern

Africa, where immense quantities are

is very important crop. Two varieties

Carolina or African. The plant is an
annual. with many trailing branches,
with small leaves. and small yellow
flowers. After the flower falls of from
the end of each little branchlct. the
pod forming in its place is gradually
forced into the ground by the clonsa-
ticn of its stalk. If this is prevented

can only develop when covered with
earth. For the cultivation of this ia
vorite article of fOOd-Onc is at loss
whether to class it among fruits or veg
e'ables-good rich land. with an adj
mixture of sand, should be selected. 1t

clay. as that stains the shells and
lowers the quality and price of the
nuts. In April the land should be
marked off into the burrows three feet
apart, and in these two peas. deprived

About Sweet Potatoes.

Does the killing of the vine ny rosi
affect unfavOrably the potato in the
ground. is question which nine per
sons out of ten in this latitude would
| answer in the affirmative. They claim
that the frost, which kills the vine,
descends to the potato below and af.
fects its eating qualities. l have known
persons, under the influence OF this
idea. to go out by moonlight or lamp.
light, and remove the vines from their
potatoes. That this is all very absurd.
and that the keeping qualities OF the
potatoes are often seriously impaired
by the premature gathering involved
in cutting off the vines. l am thor
oughly convinced. and will give some
Of the reasons for the faith that is in
me.
Years ago spent a winter in Louis.
lana. and was struck with the fact that
in private gardens sweet potatoes were
allowed TO remain in the ground all
winter and were only dug when want
ed. and yet the vines were SO thor
oughly killed by frost that scarcely any
thing remained but the hill TO indicate
where the potato grew. In cOnvcrsa-
ton with residents Of Georgia and
other Southern States upon this point,
they have invariably assured me that
they paid no attention to frosts: and a
large grower made it point to leave
his potatoes in the ground until tho
vines were thoroughly killed before he
dug them.
l once gave neighbor some plants
(of which had surplus) to grow
upon the shares. He left his crop in
the ground until they received three as
severe frosts as l ever saw. When nv
share was received they were OF better
quality and kept better than mine,
which had no exposure whatever. For
years l have acted in &C
cordance with the above facts, and have
had no cause to regret the course.
Whatever will cause rot. premature
gathering. careless handling or an UNI
suitable cellar. will produce the Pc
culiar taste which people enormously

A List That Makes . Folio Pamphlet ol
Forty-fOur Pages.
The Commissioner OF Patents, Mr..
Benton j. Hall. has had prepared a
list of women inventors. or women to
whom patents have been granted
This list has been printed and makes
fclio pamphlet of forty-four pages.
1t gives not only the names OF tho
patentees. but also the title of the
patent and date Of issue. The first
patent issued was to Mary Kree. May
6. 1909. for straw weaving with silk or
thread.
Six years later Mary Brush obtained
patent for corset. and then four
years elapsed before another inventive
woman appeared. This was Sophia
Usher. whose patent was for carbon.
ated liquid cream of tartar. Then,
again, in 1922. Julia Phantom secured
a patent for foOtstoOl. During the
four following years q patent was is
sued each year to a woman. and from
that time down to the present the
number OF woman patentees gradually
increased. In recent years feminine
inventiveness has shown marked pro.
gress. For instance, from the LIST OF
January, 1888. to the Goth OF June,
last. no less than sixty-six patents
were issued to women, while during
the year 1887. l79 patents were 90 is
sued. This latter number Is the
largest ever issued.
While the names Of the articles
patented show that they were gener-
ally in the line of feminine wearing
apparel and household labOr-saviuc
devices. yet many were Of a character
that shows the multiplied interests Of
women. As an instance one woman
