DAIRY SUGGESTIONS.

THE improvement of the COW keeps
pace with the improvement of the
dairyman.
MILLET and hungarian grass make
good winter feed for the cows if cut
early. If allowed to ripen their seeds
the hay becomes Of less value.
THERE is only one way to run dairy
successfully, and that is to make a
business Of it. The farm must be an
adjunct to the dairy, not the dairy to
the farm
SEIN-MuR and youug calves and pigs
make "a combination that grows into
money rapidly. Il the dairy does not
pay. it may be because a portion Of this
combination is lacking.
IN feeding roots in the dairy, cut
them up and mix with bran if you want
to get the most food from both. Put in
as much bran as can be well ampened
with the Juices. Western Rural.
FARM AND VINEYARD says: Never
take a lantern into the stable. Have a
glass window flush with the inside
wall, and a box outside with small
door, and Sc. the lantern in this, let
ting the light shine through the glass
window" This is a good suggestion.

The business of the Royal Baking
Powder Company comes to us in the
regular way, and is not. therefore, EMIT
led to any special mention on that &C
count But the fact that other baking
powder companies have been making
war on this company and using all
manner of unfair means to injuro its
business is itself an appeal to the love of
fair play which is part Of the chara-
cter Of every good American citizen.
The fact that the Royal Baking Pow
der Company has succeeded far beyond
any of its competitors is no doubt rea-
son enough for some of them to say any
thing against the Royal Baking Powder
that they can get newspapers to publish.
We do not know whether that sort of
thing has injured the Royals business

RATloNs FOE COWS.
Cheap Feeding Is Not Economical In Any
Sense.

Sense.
Increasing attention is being given to
the subject of food supplies for dairy
COWS. That much depends upon the
quality and character of the food for
good quality of dairy product as well
as to obtain paying quantity, all must
admit. A writer who furnishes form
ula says that it has been abundantly
proven that cows will do better on
mixed feed than they will on any single
ration, no matter how good it may be
in itself High feeding-that is feed
ing for the maximum product-can also
be done more cheaply by having a good
variety of food. for with the single ra-
ton there will always be some ele-
ments which will not contribute to-
ward the end for which you are feeding
and so viii be a loss 1t is only by
testing different mixtures, counting
their cost and observing the results
carefully, that one can tell just what is
best adapted to his individual use.
One thing is certain, and that is that
cheap feeding is not often economical
Much cheap food may be used to good
advantage by combining it wisely with
more concentrated food. Even straw
may be used to furnish good share of
the roughness for the dairy, but straw
fed cattle alone could not be expected
to make much return. A good ration
but not cheap one-would be as fol-
lows Ten pounds clover hay, ten
pounds cut straw, four pounds
linseed meal, four pounds corn meal
four pounds wheat bran, two pounds
cotton-seed meal Such a ration
would be expensive, costing from TWEEN
ty to twenty-five cents per day, accord
ing to prices and location, and, of
course, could only be fed to cows of
high producing capacity; but the best
possible profit in the dairy would be to
have cows that would justify this and
then feed them steadily to the top
notch. In such dairy the product
would need to be upon as high plane
as the stock and feeding, and nothing
but gilt-edged butter turned off.-West-

How to Make Your Hands
White

Nowadays the ladies are giving con-
siderable attention to their compilations,
and how to beautify them. and now
comes the latest fad of bleaching the
hands. The Dlodus operandi is, that
just before retiring wash the hands. and
after drying them thoroughly rub them
with almond cream; then hold them
owe. q steaming tea-kettle until the
hands are dripping with moisture, then
dry them with soft towel. and after
applying the almond cream again put
on pair of kid gloves and jump into
bed. Continue this for three or four
nights and you will be both astonished
and pleased at the marbel whiteness of
the dainty handy. Then ask your moth
er, if she loves you, to always use Hors-
fords Baking, Powder, which in itself is
an emblem of purity.
