HERE AND THERE.

If you have a COW that keeps fat
and sleek on a little feed, don't save
her calf for q dairy cow. For such
purpose you want an animal that does
not inherit beef making tendency.
Il think if farmers would raise
more small fruit and cultivate the gar
dens better, they would get more profit
from it than almost anything else they
have on the farm.-W. n. Paige, Maine.
Weeds are the farmers greatest
enemy-taxing his muscles and rob
bling his soil of its fertility and mois-
ture. The prolific source of weeds on
many farms is the barnyard-a veri.
table seed bed.-Grange Homes.
Milk and butter from cows fed o.
garbage are not suitable food for hogs.
The butter may be made into axle
grease or used to flavor oleomargarine.
and may then be made to pay for the
milking, but nothing more.
1t is better, and far cheaper in the
end, to begin in time a system of farm
ing that will preserve the fertility of
the soil, than TO learn some time, when
you can't help it, that heavy manuring
is necessary to produce . profita able
crop on the worn-down field. He who
farms this year, without an eye to the
future, is short-sighted, indeed.
Cotton has not made southern farm
ers rich, but under q proper system of
farming it will do it. When farmers
learn to raise their own meat, bread,
fruit. vegetables and farm animals
and supply their own country with
them. and then raise all the bigh-priced
cotton they can, there will Be . good
reign of unexampled prosperity
throughout the south.
Successful dairying can only DO
carried on in these days of competition
from bogus butter and the calls Of .
fastidious market by thoroughly study
ing ali parts of the business-the COW
which produces the milk. her feed-pro-
duction and adsptability, processes Of
manufacture and putting upon the
market.

to have the growing plants in pots, and

The most frequent cause Of indigcs-
ton in fowls is the same ms that with
Misunderstanding. 1t may he stat
ed, however, that the hens have no
teeth, and must have some kind of
sharp and hard substances with which
to assist in grinding their food. In
some sections this can not be procured
by them. Indigestion is frequently
mistaken for cholera, and all.kinds Of
suggested cholera remedies are used a.
cures, which do more harm than good.
The best remedy is to compel the hens
to fast for forty-eight hours Grit may
be provided by the use Of pounded
glass or broken china. There is no
risk in giving such materials, as the
hens will not swallow more than they
may need. II the hens are fat (which
is usually the case when they are at.
fected by indigestion) they should re.
ceive no food but that which they can
secure for themselves by foraging and

| Farmer II This c6assceloi:
Quite class Of farmers prefer to pur.
chase what hogs they think they can
attend in the fall rather than to keep .
sufficient number Of brood sows to raise
the pigs on the farm.
They save the feed and management
OF the sows. and if they fail to raise
any corn are not under the necessity Of
purchasing feed in order to finish theif
stock for market: neither are they
obliged to sell stock on hand for what
it will bring.
Generally this class pay less atten-
ton to breed than the farmer that
breeds and feeds his own pigs to ma
turity. II the pigs are vigorous and
thrifty so that a reasonable short feed
will properly finish for market, they
can usually be fattened with profit
Yet, when every item that tends to
lessen or increase the profit must be
considered, the breed, condition and
previous management will be of suGi.
Gent Importance to be looked after.
In nearly all cases in purchasing
hogs to finish for market, other things
being equal, hogs that have
had the run of good grass
or clover pasture and have
been fed sufficient Stops In connection
with good pasturage to maintain a
steady growth, are preferable to those
that have been in a close pen and have
been fed almost entirely on grain. II
the grass hogs have been properly ham
died they will readily stand heavier
feeding of grain, and make a larger
amount of grain for the feed given. II.
in addition. they are of a good breed.
they are worth more to feed than .
scrub that has been kept in close quar-
terS.
Under present conditions most feed
ing is done on a rather close margin,
and it is only by taking every advan-
tage TO secure the gain for the feed
given that the best profit is possible.
When the margin is close between the
value of the feed and the price of the
hogs when ready to market, good,
thrifty grass hogs, of good breed. will
often show a profit when hogs that
have been fed almost entirely upon
grain will not pay.
Hogs that have had the run of COZ d
pasturage and. in addition. have been
fed sufficient to keep thrifty, can have
their grain rations increased until they
are put on fall feed, and gain rapidly,
while granted hogs are more easily
overfed, rarely have a good appetite,
will not gain as rapidly and will re-
quire longer time to properly finish,
and then will make considerable diff.
ference in the margin of profit-N. J.
