Fattening Calves.

In raising calves for veal the sooner
the young animals are fatted and suffi.
ciently matured for the purpose the more
profit there will be in it. This will be
accomplished by the natural process of
drawing the milk from the mother soon
er than by artificial feeding, and calves
that are allowed to suck their dams will
be preferred by the butcher. AS mat
ter of profit to dairymen the milk will
be of more value than the calf, but to a
farmer who has plenty of milk and a
poor market for it it may be quite differ
ent. In this case it is simply question
of the best way to fatten the calf. If
nearly all the milk of the COW is re-
quired, then remove the calf as soon as
he has enough and strip the COW clean at
once. Where half of the milk will be
sufficient the first half will be the least
fattening, and it will be question for
the owner to decide whether the calf
shall have the first or the last. It should,
however. be remembered that there is
nothing to be gained by limiting the
milk ration of calf that is being fat
tened for veal or in attempting to fatten
him on skim milk.

pho+ography Applied to Surveying.


Surveyors are becoming more and
more indebted to photography for the
way in which it facilitates and improves
their work For reconnaissance the cam
era offers some pleasant features. The
public is always anxious to know what
an engineer is doing with transit,
but if he has map of the country and
an aneroid in his pocket, so that, by
fences or otherwise, he can tell pretty
nearly where he is, he is only an anna
teur artist, making views of scenery,
and the farmer is not suspicious that he
wants to run railroad through his corn
crib. Such pictures as may thus be Sc
cured, understandingly used, may help
to decide where line will probably be
best, so far as the general features Of
the country are concerned.
Progress is the order of the day. It
is not long since the engineer who used
a camera to take occasional or semi
occasional records of the progress of his
work was looked upon as putting on airs.
Now, however. the blue print and the
camera come in very handily, so much
80 that it is not the engineer who uses
them, but rather the one who does not.
who is the exception. The engineer is
not likely to dispense just now with his
transit, but he who avails himself of
such help as photography can give him.
especially in such work as making close
Typographical surveys, will have very
great advantage over him who does not.
