In Scotland, where the field mice
have become such plague that COM
mission of the department of agricul-
ture is investigating the matter, the
increase OF mice is attributed to the
killing of weasels and birds of prey by
hunters The same conclusions have
been reached by intelligent farmers in
many parts of this country. The states
of Pennsylvania and Colorado offered
bounty for the heads of hawks and
other birds of prey, and as a conse-
quence most of them were killed off,
Soon field mice, gophers and ground
squirrels increased so fast that the
farmers would gladly pay bounty to
persons who would breed hawks and
other large birds, says the stock

HANDLING OF MILK.
1t Requires Constant Care and ScIupu'
lOus Cleanliness.

lOus Cleanliness.
To those dealing with milk in any
form, the various lamentations are
especially undesirable and are constant
sources of trouble. All the iermenta.
tions of milk, even the common souring,
are due to the contamination of milk
with something from the exterior after
it is drawn from the COW. To prevent
these lamentations all that is neces-
sary is to treat it in such way that
it will not be contaminated. Simple as
it is in theory it is found to be difficult
to practice, and no practical method
has vet been devised for keeping these
ferments out of the milk We, there
fore, must consider the best methods of
reducing the mum Der and keeping their
growth slow, which are absolute clean
illness and low temperature.
The great source of these organisms
is in the unclean vessels in whic milk
is handled and in the filth which sur
rounds the COW. BY scrupulous Gle anil
ness in the barn and dairy, the number
of organisms which get into the milk
will be comparatively small. OF equal
value is the use of low temperatures,
which should be applied Immediately
after the milk is drawn. The tempera-
ture at which the mills is drawn is just
about right for the entrance and rapid
increase of bacteria, and in summer
time milk cools especially slow and
never below the temperature OF the
surrounding air. If, however, the milk
is cooled as soon as drawn the increase
of these bacteria is kept in check and
will not begin again except slowly I'M
til the milk is warmed. Cool milk will,
therefore, keep several hours longer
than that not cooled.
All the abnormal lamentations of
milk, such as blue, red, Shiny, tainted
milk, etc, are due to the growth of or
ganisms in the milk, and all of these
are preventable by care. If dairy is
constantly troubled with Shiny milk or
any other abnormal trouble, cause is
sure to be found in some unusual con-
tamination' of milk, and the remedy
must be extra cleanliness. 1t is sell

trouble is usually apart from the cow
either in the barn or dairy. Some
times the trouble comes from one COW.
Certain bad normal odors and taiEts
in milk may be produced dire, thy by
the food eaten by the COW. Garlic or
turnips will flavor the milk, and various
other foods may affect the taste, but
this class of taints may be readily dis
tinguished from those due to bacterial
growth. The odors and taints due to
the direct influence of the food are at
their highest as soon as the milk is
drawn, never increasing afterward.
But the taints due to bacterial growth
do not appear at all in fresh milk. be.
ginning to be noticeable only after the
bacteria have had a chance to grow. II
trouble with taste of the milk is no.
ticed Immediately after it is drawn, the
cause may be looked for in the food.
If it does not appear it will some time
afterward, then grows rapidly worse
it may be remedied by great care in
the management of the dairy or barn

IL Should BE Handled in Damp Weather
to secure Good Results.
On the western farm there is nothing
used with as poor economy as corn
fodder. says an exchange. If properly
saved there is TO better feed for stock
cattle. From 30 to 80 cents per acre is
what is usually paid for corn fields
after the corn is husked. The corn left
by the husllcr is about all the value
there is in the field The dry husls
and stalks have little worth as food.
An acre of good corn fodder from corn
which has yielded 80 to 60 bushels per
acre, if secured at the proper time, is
worth as much for feed as the hay
from an acre of tame grass. There is
no question but ensilage is good feed,
but the cost of building the silo and
the machinery connected with it, the
number of hands and teams necessary
in filing the silo, make it out of the
reach of the common farmer. The cut
ting and shocking can be done with the
usual help on the farm; extra help may
be necessary in husling.
An acre of good corn will contain
eighteen good sized shocks; the cost of
cutting, husking, binding fodder into
bundles and putting corn into the crib
will be 20 cents per shock; the hauling
and stacking, 3 cents per shock more.
The full cost of the acre of fodder,
bound and put in the stack, and the
corn put in the crib is S4.i4. But we
must deduct from this the cost of husl1-
ing the acre upon the stalks, about
S1.25, also give credit for the value of
the fodder in the field, so cents, which
reduces the cost OF an acre of fodder
put in the stack to SO 40, the feeding
value of which is equal to the value of
one acre of tame hay
The handling of corn fodder must be
done in damp weather. / think this
method of securing and feeding corn
fodder far better than turning the
stock into the corn field. / am salts
fed that it is economy to fix up lots,
with good shelters and feed racks, and
to have water always accessible. BY
this method we increase the amount OF
manure made, so important in keeping
up the fertility of the farm. -Colman's

In all industries, the use of the bye

weather will affect it but little. When

which will shed rain, or, if possible,
placed under shelter. If in stacks,
when the feeding season arrives it is
so cut down with the hay knife that

larly to oat and barley straw, the feed

Another suggestion (although old TO
many may be new to some) to which
wish to call attention is that of cutting
corn railroad" fashion, or by going
through the first two rows where the
shocks are to stand and tying the
standards, cutting only the two rows
in which they are tied, then taking a
single row on one side and going the
whole length of the row, stopping at
each shock to set up the armful cut be-
tween the shocks; then going back on
the other side of the row of shocks the
same way, and so on till all the rows
are cut; the last row cut, the shocks
are tied. In cutting this way the work
is all straight ahead and | think corn
can be cut faster by this method than
by cutting one shock at time. Try it
