THE DAIRY.
Dairy Notes.

SEE how much butter each COW will
make by putting her milk by itself
ALWAYS give the COWS some hay, or
even straw, when first turned out, and
so save the excessive securing.
IT is sad mistake to allow the but
termilk to remain over night in the
churn, as is done too often. even by the
most careful. Another point is not to
let the churn become too old. When it
gets so dark and weather stained that
you cannot wash ii white again, then
turn it to some other use and get you
new one.
You want a piece of ground to plant
with corn TO cut while green for the
cows when the pasture gets short next
summer. This lot should either be near
the barn or the pasture. If not too hilly,
now is the time to put the manure on it.
In planting corn for this purpose | drop
six or eight grains together, about every
two feet in the low, with the rows two
and half feet apart.
A COW exposed to cold rain in the
spring will be In danger of permanent
in Jury. The wise and careful farmer
will always keep his stock comfortable
Better go without food than shiver in a
storm Many a COW contracts a cold in
the SuIlN bpIlHSs anu IL hlHuS u " II
Inflammation of the lungs and with a
cough. 1t may take another turn and
result In inflammation of the stomach,
followed by assesses. Cows thus af-
fected never do we'll.
If your wife is now handling a score
or two of heavy crooks every day, few
months use of q creamery will strengt Ell
her back about fifty per cent, and she
will give you bucFwheat cakes oftener
next winter, and have them baked just
the shade of brown you like. And then
if you use modern dairy fixtures it will
enable you to make more and better but
ter from the same number of COWS, your
butter will bring better price and your
wife will live longer.
FOREIGN exchange says for skim
milk: Foods of equal value would cost
in the form of beef four and a half
times as much as they cost in the form
of milk. As skim milk contains the
flesh and bone forming and the heat
producing substances, it has all the
most valuable properties of new milk;
and when the prejudice against it passes
away, it should come largely into con-
sumption among the masses of popula-
tion to whom good food is a considera-
ton, and the price n matter of almost
equal importance.

THE POULTRY YARD.
Poultry : opics.


IF you want good, strong, vigorous
chickens, see that the breeding birds are
strong and healthy.
Don't forget that your fowls need
now the dust bath we have so often men
TONED Provide them with dust boxes.
GIVE your fowls cabbage, cut clover,
hay, onions and other vegetables. They
need them, especially when in confine-
ment.
IF you want to get reputation keep
good stock. If you don't own it, kill
what you have and start anew, for it will
pay you well in the end.
THERE is little waste in turkey. A
Chicago brush company uses turkey tail
| and brush feathers, purchasing them not
| only from the city butchers, but from
dealers generally. The long tail feath-
ers and the wing feathers, except the
pointers, are marketable. The latter
have plumes on one side only, and grow
on the first joint of the wing. The tail
! of six inches and over is valuable.
FARMERS who keep but few comm on
fowls for eggs and poultry would find il
to their advantage to breed from pure
bred male. Even fanciers of the pure
bred varieties know that they can, by
judicious crossing, produce birds that
Z
for year or two will excel the stock on
either side for laying and strictly eco
| nomic merit-but more especially Is this
noticeable on crossing pure-Dre male
on to the common OF mixed stock of the
farmer. The best kind for this purpose,
to suit the greatest number, who wish to
combine plenty of eggs with good,
plump carcass, is the Dorking or the
Langshan. The Plymouth and Wyan-
dottes also answer where yellow legs
and skin are desired. Where eggs are
the principal object the Minorca will
produce the desired effect. The Leg
horn or Hamburg varieties would also
answer, but the Minorca is to be pre-
! ferred, having the advantage of the
other breeds in size and laying qualities.
| The Houdan male mated to commo u
pullets produce chicks that at maturity
average larger than either parent, with
good plump bodies and good vigor.
Nearly all, however, will be black.
Young. pure-bred cockerels, suitable
for crossing, may be obtained at very
low prices of almost any reliable
breeder of pure poultry, and such an in
vestment is sure to pay. Farmers, study
your interests, and do not hesitate to
| improve your stock as we have sug-
gested.

THE GARDEN.
Horticultural Notes.

MosT plants will not thrive in cold,
wet soil.
PLANT the garden in rows, and Guilt
vate with horse.
EAT ripe fruit or sauce every day, or
twice a day, if possible.
HAVE good orchard, and as good q
variety of fruit as possible.
MAKE farm, garden, and poultry house
furnish all they can of the living
THE quality of nearly all vegetables
depends upon their freshn ness and crisp
ness and warm, rich sol is necessary
to secure this.
LOOK to the outlet of drains. Surface
drains made to carry the water from
grain fields often get INSTRUCTED by
leaves, etc, and need cleaning out.
BANDAGEs for canker worms should
be at once applied if their use is in
tended. The better plan is to spray the
trees with London purple or Paris
green.
WHEREVER the soil is in proper con-
dition to work, and crumbles before tn
pillow, or when stirred by the spade or
fork, large share of the hardy seeds
may be sown.
If farmers would consider everything
that they use and would have to pay for,
if on rented premises together with the
sales from the farm, they would find
their income far greater than it seems at
first thought
WHEN employing your help look to
the morals of the men. No employer,
where there are children on the farm,
can afford man, however good a work
man he may be, if he uses profane or
vulgar language, or is rough or cruel to
animals.
In purchasing fruit trees select the
four to six feet size; deciduous seed
lings for tree claim and like planting,
eight to fifteen inches; evergreens for
shelter belt and ornament, always under
two feet, and usually under fifteen
inches.
STANDARD orchard trees as sent from
the nursery, vary from five to seven feet
in height, with naked stems or trunks.
and q number of branches at the top
forming a head. These branches should
be all cut back to within three or four
buds of their base.
A DAKOTA subscriber asks the proper
time to prune apple trees, also forests.
Wants to know when it can be done
with the least bleeding" The apple
trees to get growth of wood, should be
trimmed in the spring, either just before
the sap begins to flow up into the tree,
or else after the leaves are about half
grown. If you are pruning for fruit,
trim in the fall, before hard freezing.
Forest trees should be trimmed when
set out, and afterward, when the leaves
are half grown.

THE STOCK-RANCH,
Stock Siftinps

Don't turn stock on the pasture until
the grass thereon has made good growth,
as it simply destroys the young plants.
SPRING is critical time with all
classes of stock, although the season is
warmer, due to exposure to high winds
and damp weather. When the air is
saturated with moisture the animal will
feel its effects more severely than when
the weather is cold and dry. A shelter
should always be provided to serve as a
windbreak.
OUR improved modern pigs are the
result of the infusion of Chinese and
Siamese blood with the pigs of England
and Ireland of 100 years ago. The
Chester Whites and Poland Chinas of
this country are not thoroughbred in the
strict sense of the term, that is, they do
not always reproduce their ancestors.
The Poland China is the best one for
the practical farmer.
NOTHING is so unsightly as the mud
and filth that gets on the cows in the
winter. 1t is not sufficient to have the
cow rub it off. She should be we'll
cleaned by ihe attendant, and the brush
and curry comb are indispensable. A
COW that yields largely can be made to
yield more by being kept clean and
warm. The plastered filth often noticed
on cows is a source of irritation, keep
ing them uncomfortable and rendering
them less tractable and manageable.
