Prospects For Cattle Feeding.

Numbered with other reasons for pre-
dieting lighter feeding this year than
usual, given by National Stookman, are:
(l) The prices for corn, both present and
prospective, are SO much higher than
the present prices for fat cattle that it
takes a man Of considerable courage to
feed his grain with a view to getting
more out of it than by marketing it. (2)
A great many feeders had trouble last
year in procuring money to handle cat
tie and were forced in many instances
to sacrifice their stock to pay their obi
cations, which they calculated upon
carrying al long as they desired. The
influence of this pinch in money mat
ters a year ago is causing much conserv-
atism among feeders. although there is
plenty OF money in the country at pres
ent. 90 The general depression of bust
ness in all lines has discouraged and
disheartened many who are generally
ready to push business to the limit of
their opportunities If there is any pros
pect of making a dollar or even coming
out whole. "a The dry weather and
short pastures have caused the market
ing of numberless punches of young cat
tie that would otherwise have been kept
through the summer and finished off in
the feed lots in the winter.

THE DORKlNG FOWLS.

Three Recognized Varieties-For Crossing
Common Barnyard Flocks.
The Dorking is the most popular of
all varieties Of fowls in England. There
1t is regarded as prominently the farm
er's fowl. Three varieties are recognized
in this Countrywide white, the silver
gray and the colored. The general char.
acteristics of the three varieties are the
same. All have the five toes, the long
bodies, full breast, rather short legs and
heavy build. They show meaty qualities,
especially about the breast, which is cs.
pecially full in both sexes. AL have
white or flesh colored legs and white
skin.
The white variety is rather smaller
than the other two, but possesses the
same compact build and meaty qualities.
This variety is bred only with rose
combs. Its plumage throughout is pure
white. The colored variety is bred with
both single and rose combs. The silver
gray is also bred with both rose and
single combs.
The Dorking is. first of all, a table
fowl. Its flesh is tender, juicy and of
delicious flavor. AS q table fowl it
stands at the head of the list.
AS an egg producer the Dorking is
not the equal of some varieties. 1t lays
a medium sized, creamy white egg,
many of which have a decidedly yellow
tint. Its eggs are smaller than those of
the Spanish and less numerous than
those of the Leghorn. 1t cannot com,
pete in egg production with the Plym-
outh Rock.
The hens do not generally offer to sit
early in the season, but when they dc
sit they prove exceptionally good ones
and are among the most exemplary of
mothers. In thus summing up the merits
Of this fowl The Poultry World adds
that the Dorking is valuable to use for
crossing upon the common barnyard
flocks. A farmer could hardly make a
better choice, when desiring to intro
duce fresh blood into his flock of hens,
than by selecting a good sized, we'll
built Dorking cock. By 30 doing he
would add to the size and weight of his
chickens and produce them with more
breast meat, and that with a richer
flavor.
. While being especially exempt from
some diseases which attack many fowls,
especially scaly leg, they are peculiarly
liable to what is known as humble foot.
The authority quoted believes that,
properly managed, the Dorking can be
made to pay well, inasmuch as for thor
oughbred eggs for Matching and for fine
specimens for exhibition there is a good
demand in this country and good prices
are realized.

ReclaiminR Arid Lands.

The fundamental principles underly-
ing the reclamation Of arid lands are
laid down in a bulletin from the Wyo-
ming station as follows:
Every holder of irrigable public land.
whether state or United States, should
be required to reclaim 1t or transfer it
to some one who will. This principle
requires a change in the federal laws to
meet the conditions of the arid regions.
We must recognize the fact that all arid
lands are not capable of being reclaimed
and irrigated. The coming land laws
must provide for their disposal and
management as grazing lands and make
1t possible for the owner Of q small ir-
rigated farm to also own some of the
grazing lands.
Our mountain forests, the home and
fountain Of our water supply, must be
preserved at all hazards. In the arid
regions land and water are one and in
separable. Therefore the land and the
water must go together. Owners of the
land must also own the bitches and
canals which make it productive, and

in the land they reclaim. There must
be no water monopolies.
Our state, through our engineer and
board of control, must be continued as
the guardians Of our water supply, so as
to effectively protect the rights of the
appropriations and prevent the waste of
u water supply and the use and diver
sion of our streams. This power of the
state ought to be supreme under proper
legal restrictions, and the United States
land laws should be so amended as to
recognize the Importance and supreme
right of the state to control and appro-
pirate its water supply as well as to
protect its priority of rights on inter
state streams.
The construction of large irrigation
works must be under state control and
according to prearranged plan, which
will secure the reclamation of the lar
gest body of land at the minimum of
cost, due regard always being given to
the permanency and durability of the
works constructed. The state can easily
reach this matter by requiring parties
building bitches and canals to secure
the approval of the state engineer as to
plans before water rights are granted.
A failure to comply with plans approved
may be made grounds of forfeiture of
right acquired,

CORN HUSkING.

Est 1t BE Done Early-Favorable Report
of the Steam Husker.
Thousands of western farmers could
profit by needing the advice of eastern
cultivators to get the corn husked early,
and yet in many instances, no doubt, to
hurry too much in the matter would
prove improbable. John M. Stahl, a
progressive Illinois farmer, in a com.
munication to Country Gentleman, says:
AS compared with the eastern states,
our labor is dear and our corn very
cheap. One can better afford to waste a
little corn than incur any decided addi-
tional expense for labor. Yet recon-
mendation to push the work faster than
is the common practice is most excel
lent. To leave corn standing in the field
during the winter is unnecessarily
wasteful. 1t is disgracefully wasteful.
And to leave corn in the field, even in
Illinois or Iowa, until after the holidays
Is inexcusable, except in rare cases. l

somewhat damaged, but these rarely ex-
coed 8 per CEN of the corn, and the
damage will not equal 1 per cent. The
great loss is Of the fodder. The stalks
cannot be pastured until the ears are
husked, and ever till Dec. / the best
part of the fodder is lost. Half of the
blades are blown off by the wind or
whipped off by the rain and are lost alto
gether. Those that remain and the outer
husks are washed and bleached. The
loss of feed through the failure to save
corr fodder is enormous, and as long as
it continues the farmers guilty of it can
not complain Of hard times with good
grace.

The steam husker now promises to be a

With the horsepower corr harvester and

Succession Of Stock Food.

It is easy for a man to see that an
acre of ground divided into four parts,
with one part each in rye, crimson
clover, corr and millet, would give a
greater variety and succession of stock
food than if the whole acre were planted
to any one crop. With the field divided
in this way, we have a succession of
green crops that may be used for soiling
before the pastures are fit for grazing
and after they are dried up. That fact
is very evident to any M that can see,
and the same thing is true, though to a
less degree, of a succession of plants in
the pasture. 1t is a great mistake to
seed pastures to n or two grasses.
There might better be six or eight varie-
ties, which would give a succession of
food through the season almost like the
four different crops on the acre Of land,
says Rural New Yorker.

Concrete farm buildings, stables,
milkhouses and dwelling houses are dry
and warm in winter and cool in sum
mer. Neither rats nor any other kind Of
vermin can burrow into them when the
floors are made Of the same material.
They are cheap too. Why do we not
have more concrete buildings in this
country, especially where lumber is
scarce and high?
One who has tried it says that wheat
crushed in a cheap steel grinder makes

After breeding live stock for many

Animals as we'll as people have rheu-

Of the joints. The best remedy is to battle
the affected parts well and frequently
with hot water. Then rub them with
camphorated liniment and put a flannel
bandage around them. Put two drains
of s~alicylic acid in a mash and feed it
to the animal ono a day.

The season has been a very dry one, but

also moved tho field twice during the

Unthrashed Wheat For Feed.

An Ohio farmer, in a letter to Pro.
fessor Henry of the Wisconsin station,
advises feeding wheat in the sheaf to
hogs. To thrash and grind the grain is
an expense. The plan suggested is to try
feeding ~fattening hogs wheat from the
stack i'll the sheaf, scattered over a dry
field or lot. 1t will not be eaten so fast
and will be digested better. For best re-
suits they should be taken out at night
to a small ration of corn. With the
lows and pigs or stock hogs turned in
to clean up the wheat after them there
will be little waste during dry weather.
