FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.

Cows never thrive we'll when compelled
to live on the east wind.
4 COW, to do her best, must be just as
contented and happy as it is possible to
make her.
A good dairy COW is a wonderfully
delicate and sensitive piece of animal
machinery. Take care of her.
Asking a COW to give a good flow of
:: Tx from dry straw as food, even with
december pasture added, is like expect
ing figs from thistIes.
A farmer deeply impressed with the
idea that his business is the poorest in the
world will never learn his calling, nor
will he be likely to get much profit from
it.
If you invest in a pig don't hunt for
the cheapest, scrawniest beast you can
find, but get a good article, one that will
be a constant delight to watch as it feeds
and develops.
Where the milking is done in feeding
stable the drops should be cleaned and
thoroughly busted with plaster before
each milking. Its odor- absorbing quality
is of great use to the da1rymen.
Corn ground cob gives satisfactory re-
suits to many dairymen who have tried
the plan. The cob, besides containing
some nutriment, renders the grain more
digestible and easier assimilated.
To feed too much is waste, because
stock do not relish eating food that they
have picked over. To fed too little is
waste, because the gain that it is possible
to realize both with the stock and from
the feed is lost.
Rich mellow cheese can never be pro-
duced from skinned milk, despite the
most delicate manipulations of a skilled
manufacturer. Cheese without its natural
quota of butter-fat is devoid of its
most essential recommendation.
Stable manure is complete fertilizer
in the sense that expression is generally
used; that is, it contains all the elements
required for plant nutrition. If there
were plenty of good manure available
and convenient, there would be but little
necessity for purchasing a single pound
of commercial fertilizer.
Many make a mistake in the manage
ment of sheep in not providing them
with good shelter during the winter.
The difference III the growth OF wool and
the quality between sheep that have been
kept under a comfortable shelter all
winter, and those that are exposed, often
makes the difference of profit or loss.

FEEDING CORN FODDER.

believe there is vast loss of time,
which is money, in this country, says
Professor W. A. Henry, from the useless
husking of corn, when both the corn
and fodder are to be fed to steers or
COWS. l believe the silo offers the best
means of preserving fodder, both ears
and stalks, for stock. but realize that a
large per cent. of our farmers are not yet
IN condition, or think they are not, to
use the silo. Knowing this, l desire to
see corn stalks or fodder corn, managed
IN the next best possible way. When
our farmers have come to learn their
value as they should, there will be an in
mense amount of feed utilized that is
now almost wholly wasted. The farmer

CULLING Mich STOCK.

We all know what 10 do with the culls
Of vegetables, fruit or any market crops.
We never put them III the cellar or barn
to hold over, but dispose Of them at once.
And 50 in the management of our stock,
should We hesitate in disposing Of any
animal that does not in some way afford
Us profit OF course we have more
liking for an animal we raise than for a
bOughtcn one; still kindness to COW
means reel prOcity on her part, and she
should be kind to Us at the pail. If we
mean to make a success of the dairy we
must sacrifice our inclination somewhat
My experience, says writer in the New
England FG1mter, teaches me that about
three out Of five heifers prove first-class
COWS, and l keep the other two no longer
than it takes me to dispose Of them.
Looks, behavior, being of my raising,
don't enter into the contest. Is she profit
able to keep?
Then, too, another idea: If raise four
or five calves each year, would become
OvcrstOcked in time, so enter the market
as seller, and when the COW reaches the
age Of ten or eleven years she has to walk
Viz lltthN) III u IdClICI SclI GOW Will
three or four years wear in her than keep
till she will bring only dozen dollars or
soi fifty dollars at ten years old is better.
Another fine point is what limit is there
in the feed of COW. If you are going
to keep your COWS till ten years old you
don't want to wear them out by over
feeding. Ny rule is, when a COW don't
give four quarts of milk a day she goes
on to dry-cow feed, unless she will an
swer to a little extra grain and carry it
without garget or loss of appetite. Still,
as | said, there is limit. One quart of
rye middlings, one quart of mill feed, one
quart of cotton seek, one quart of glutton
meal, twice a day, wet in butter firkin,
is the extreme limit, and less for heifers.

THE FARM AND GARDEN.
TIME TO SET POSTS.

Some farmers argue that it is btst to
set posts early in the fall when the
ground is solid. Of course a post care
fully set at any time will remain in its
Mace but fall is really much worse
time than is the spring. Digging the
hole makes the soil loose, and if done in
the fall it has not time to become COM
nacted again. Water filters down
through the loose soil, which will raise
the post a little every year until it throws
the post out altogether. If the soil has
time to settle it absorbs less moisture,
and after the first year, if the heaving
out has not already begun, it will rarely
begin. In the spring, posts may be
sharpened at the end and driven down
into the soft earth, which will close firm
Iy around them. It is necessary to put
them below the freezing line, as the
wedge shape which facilitates driving
down also makes it more easy for the
frost to heave the post up.-AmericQn

4 Peculiar Lake.

Reelfoot Lake, the locality of the earth
quake which caused so much excitement
in Obion County, Mo-, is one of the
most interesting in the United States.
Reelfoot Lake Is about thirty miles long
and eight or nine wide. 1t lies in the
western portion of Obion County, TenDes-
see, parallel with the Mississippi River at
that point.
The lake was formed by the great
earthquake which happened about the
year 1910. The shock split the earth
wide open, and the waters of the ATissis-
sippi rushing over left the immense lake
in few seconds time. All the country
round about for miles on every side of
the lake is still marked by upheavals and
depressions. No wonder the inhabitants
of that region became panic stricken !;
they have by tradition the terrible event
which so frightened their ancestors eighty
years ago

FORETHoUGHT OF ROSES.

No other plants pay better for pre-
vious preparation of soil. If the ground
was dug deeply and well enriched in
autumn, so much the better; if not, the
work should be done early as possible in
spring. The reasons for tins are: The
fresh fertilizing matter becomes assimi-
lated with the soil before the roots re-
quire its aid. and roses to succeed we'll
must be planted very early. Roses on
their own roots are more reliable than
the budded plants, no matter what the
stock on which they are worked. The
latter will sucker under all circumstances,
and although they grow stronger at
first, will in few years prove less WIG
orous than the former. In plantl-.
budded roses, the point of union between
top and root must be placed an inch OK
two beneath the surface of the soil, when
frequently roots Will be emitted from the
stock, thus making them comparatively
on their own roots. Roses dislike hot
weather, and early planting gives them
chance to form new roots before sum-
Dicr.
The strongest rose growth is always
made in spring and autumn, proving
cOnclusively their preference for cool,
moist conditions of air and soil. II
rose growers when forcing plants under
glass would remember the fact they
would secure better results. Roses in
variabIy show to advantage when massed
IN beds. knowledge of the heights which
the different varieties attain is useful in
arranging the plants in bed. Although
most OF the hybrid perpetual class are
tall growers, few kinds never exceed
TWO to three feet in height, and the
latter, OF course, must in every case oc-
cupy the foreground. If roses are
Pruned properly and regularly, all va
netles will soon become compact, we'll
shaped bushes, and the bloom Will be
increased in size and numbers.--Neao

does not get over twenty per cent. of the
value of the fodder, as a rule, think,
and this amount Is greatly reduced By
keeping the cattle out in the winds and
| storms of early winter, where they are
losing more flesh than the fodder they
eat will put on. The stalk-feld is a de-
fusion and a snare.
The first step of advance is to cut anG
shock the corn, and feed this in the barn
yard after the ears have been husked.
By this system of feeding, as ordinarily
practiced, probably forty or fifty per
cent. of the food value of the fodder is
utilized. Better than feeding husked
fodder is to feed it unhusked in the barn
to cows. A step in advance of this sys-
tenn is to run the corn fodder, ears and
all, through the feed cutter, and give the
COWS cut corn fodder. We have exper-
imented very considerably in this direc-
ton with cows, and our results show a
saving all the way from ninetn nearly
forty per cent. of fodder by the use of
the feed-cutter. Where We saved only
nine per cent. the corn stalks were small
and readily eaten by the COWS without
cutting. Where nearly forty per cent.
was saved, the corn stalks were large and
coarse. In the latter case the COWS left
several feet of the stalks uneaten, unless
they were cut up. Some farmers find
difficulty in having their COWS eat the
coarse parts of the corn stalks, even after
they have been cut up. Doubtless if the
corn was cut and shocked when the
stalks are over-ripe, there is little use in
trying to get COWS to eat such stalks, even
if cut with the feed cutter; but when fod-
der has been cut and shocked as early as
it should be, in most cases, all, or very
nearly all, of even the coarse stalks
will be eaten if the feeding
is properly managed. have in mind the
case of a dairyman who was feeding sew
enty mich COWS in winter and who wrote
me in regard to the feed cutter. My ad-
vice was to use it and cut up ali his
stalks. He reported to me later that at
first he was very much discouraged and
disguised, as the coarse parts of the I'M
eaten cut stalks piled up in the feeding
managers and became a great nuisance.
He suspected his management was wrong
however, and fed smaller amount of
with clean managers, not feeding, ,
and taking care to keep managers clean at
all times, he was enabled to make great
success of this system of feeding.
Whether it will pay to use the feed
cutter depends upon several circum-
stances, of course, but in general, I
think, where a man has ten COWS or more
there is a place for this machine. Those
who buy feed cutter should get one
large enough to be run by horse or other
power, as the hand cutter is but de-
fusion and a snare. Furthermore,
great deal larger machine should be
bought than seems sufficient to do the
work, for the farmer will soon have more
COWS to feed, and more work for the ma
chine to do, who begins systematic feed
ing. Then, too, the machine will be on
hand wnen the silo is built, and the
farmer who begins to utilize corn fodder
as he should is almost certain to end with
the silo.
