feeding it, stock and all until the
grain hardens we'll. While corn
can be made the principle ration,
yet generallyit will not be best to
make it an exclusive ration, espec-
tally whena long feeding is in pros
pect. Even for fattening hogs bran
and oil meal or wheat middlings
made into good slop can be fed
with profit. A good plan is to feed
the slop first and then the corn, TAX
ing care to feed literally in all cases.
While it is true that with a good,
vigorous hog rather better gain can
be secured if the hogs are kept con-
fined in a close, clean pen, yet there
is always risk of disease when hogs
are closely confined. When the
health and risks are considered the
better plan is to give the range of a
good pasture. Another item is to
feed and water regularly and to
have dry, comfortable place for
them to sleep. 1t will also be a
help in maintaining health if a box
is kept filled with salt and wood
ashes where they can help them
selves.

selves.

All implements that are now out
of use should be kept under cover.
First, clean them thoroughly and
anoint every portion with kerosene,
which will prevent rust. Unless
protected from dampness, however,
they viii rapidly become useless.
Any farmer can get his stock up
in quality at a small expense by the
use of selected pure bred males. 1t
requires but few years to obliter-
ate the scrub blood, and the large
gain resulting from the improve
ment will make farms pay that have
never done SO before.
Much of success in raising Spring
calves will depend upon good pas
lures, we'll watered and furnished
with dense shade for the protection
of the youngsters from insects. 1t
may be necessary to build a dark
shed into which the calves may re-
treat. Build low, mature stock will
not modest the inmates.
A Mr.. Brown, of Nebraska, after
careful experiment, says that his
120-acre corn-field, on which no
ears formed last year, having been
cut mp green, shocked, made fine
and fed to fattening steers without
any grain ration had netted him
$1,000, or more than $14 an acre. 1t
is estimated that two-ffths of the
feeding value of corn is in the fodder.
No animal fits in so we'll with the
cow as the hog, for no animal is so
well adapted to utilize the by-pro-
ducts of the dairy. Where selling
milk is the only object of the dairy
men. there is no need to keep any
thing except cows, but where max
ing butter is the aim, there is more
or less skim milk and buttermilk
which must be utilized in some way.
White clover is plant that will
grow almost anywhere if the land
is not too poor, and it is the best of
all foods for sheep, as it does not
grow to as great height as the red
variety. Sheep prefer the short
grasses, and will select white clover
as its favorite. A pasture composed
of white clover and blue grass will
provide excellent grazing for all
kinds of sheep.

Feeding a Calf.

Mr.. A. G. Hallman, the Canadian
dairyman, begins feeding the calf
at 3 days old, the ration, 4 or 5
pounds of sweet skim milk at first
three times day, then only night
and morning. At 3 weeks old a
tablespoonful of oil cake is scalded
and added to the milk, which serves
as substitute for the fat taken in
the cream. For the midday meal,
beginning when the calf is week
old, little dry bran and oat chop
is given. Fresh hay is given as soon
as the little animal takes to it. Care
is taken that the food is fresh at
every meal and is eaten clean. Milk
is stopped at 6 months. The feed
ing of the bulls and heifers is prac-
tically the same, except that a
bulky ration is given to the helfers
to developed size and roomy bar
rel, that being an important point
in a dairy COW. In the turnip sea-
son few pulped, sprinkled with
the grain ration, are fed. Corn stalks
and straw are cut and, mixed with
pulped turnips after being allowed
to stand awhile, are fed. Having
laid the foundation in breeding, he
begins with the calf to make the
future COW by steadily followed
method of feeding and handling.

Keeping Tomatoes After Frost.

An unknown writer says: II have
for years been trying various ways
to prolong the season in which fresh
tomatoes may be had after frost,
and have settled ON the following as
the best, The plan may also be
made matter Of profit for shipping,
for / have had the fruit in good
condition at Christmas, when the
price was 25c pound. About the
LIST of July | make cuttings, about
foot long, from vigorous vines that
have made smooth fruit only. After
good irrigation these are set in
well-prepared soil nearly their en-
tire length. At this season the soil
is SO warm that they root with great
est certainty, and I seldom find
that one fails to grow if the soil is
moist and well packed about the
base of the cutting. They are set
at the same distance as plants and

With all stock intended to be sold
this fall now is good time to COM
mence purchasing and feeding.
This is especially the case with
hogs. In many cases it is the early
marketed hogs that return the best
profit. So long as corn is largely
depended upon for fattening hogs it
is best to begin feeding in good
season. 1t is not only safest but
best to begin with a small quantity
and gradually increase until they
are given all that they will eat up
clean. Iftoo heavy feeding is given
at first there is danger of the hogs
getting surfeited, and they will not
do so well as if more care is taken
in the feeding. A good plan is to
commence cutting off the corn and

are cultivated in the same manner.
These plants will begin to ripen late
in the Fall, and will be full of we'll
grown fruit when. frost arrives.
When the first light frost nips the
foliage the whole crop is gathered.
They are wrapped in paper, packed
in crates and stored in place where
they will keep cool, but will not be
frozen. Any tight clubhouse where
the crates can be covered with straw
in cold weather will answer. For
family use few are taken out at a
time and put in warm room to
ripen for the table. We have them
in this way until the middle of
January nearly every year, in nice
condition for slicing. If grown in q
quantity for shipping they should
be overhauled from time to time
and the ripening ones rewrapped
and shipped up to Christmas, when
the whole lot can be shipped, as
they will sell even if not colored, as
they will soon ripen up in a warm
temperature, or it may be better to
bring them into warmer place to
color before shipping"

FARM Notes.



poultry never
Fowls which are not closely re-
lated are the best breeders.
Keep the best of the early hatch
ed pullets for Winter layers.
Bundle foot is usually produced
by flying down from high roosts.
If the chickens are neglected now
the effect cannot be overcome later.
The latter part of Summer or
early in the Fall is the best time to
buy breeding fowls.
The hens that lay best are neither
very hungry nor very fat. A good,
thrifty condition is best
The feed and care that should be
given the fowls are always as i'm
portant as selecting the breeds.
Three things are essential in the
welfare of chickens-fresh water,
plenty OF sunshine and exercise
Good digestion is the result of
feeding enough to sustain the ami
NAL, but not enough to keep the
stomach overloaded.
Hens like variety of food All
scraps from the table and refuse from
the kitchen should be mixed with
their morning ration.
Now is a good time to build the
poultry house. The main thing il
to have it roomy, dry, warm, con-
venient and well ventilated.
Whole wheat is an excellent food
for hens, but if kept cons family be-
fore them to eat all they will it may
make them too fat to lay we'll.
GRADUATED is the best food in
which to keep bone meal before the
matured hens. In this form it keeps
fresh longer than in fine meal.
There is much in the breed, much
in the feed, and more in the feeder
than in both. A good feeder will
do fairly well with a poor breed.
One advantage of the white breeds
is that in dressing there are no
black pin feathers to be broken off
in picking, leaving the skin dark
colored.
The constant production of eggs
is great drain on the fowls While
laying, about half the nourishment
taken into the crop daily is used in
egg production.
Beauty of form and stylish APP
pearance have strong hold in the
minds of breeders. With nearly all
kinds Of stock the best qualities be-
long to the most desirable form
Charred bone, as we'll as charred
corn, is good for poultry, for the
sake of the charcoal it contains,
which is very healthy for them,
purifying the blood and aiding di-
gestion.
In-breeding is nsed as an aid to
propagate and foster good qualities
found in a flock. The danger is
that the weak points are likely to
crop out more plainly than the
strong ones, and thus become more
firmly fixed.
Turkeys can be fattened readily
on thick boiled corn meal and oat
meal tinged with milk. 1t should
be given in closed coops, away from
other birds. If in good thrifty
condition about 10 days will be nee
essary to fatten

Mr.. Burgheim writes:
"The following statement may be of

and although have tried almost every
thing to get cured, consulting the best
physicians, and even going several times
to Europe, everything was in vain.
81 did not have nights rest for al
most six yeats that is to say, could not
sleep for two hours in succession in a
single night; you can easily imagine
what the effect on me had been.
"After spending q fortune in trying
for relief l had given up almost all hope.
and when | first read about Paines Gel
cry compound did not have much faith
in anything. But after having used so
many remedies and consulted SO many
physicians in this country and abroad
felt like giving the compound trial.
The result was truly wonderful.
The very first night about six months
ago that tried PaUe's celery compound
you can imagine my joy when | found
that had slept six hours in succession,
IL thing that had not heen blessed with
for so many years. | continued the use
for over three months with same happy
result. and although l was fearful lest
the malady would come back on me,
can now say that although have not ia
ken the compound for months do sleep
every night peacefully and without inter
ruptiOn.
you can easily imagine what this
means for man who works fourteen
hours every day in the year and has
charge of two large newspapers l con-

Sleep is enc of the things that cannot

The punishment for sleeplessness is
worse than pain. 1t means IA shattered

1t often happens that a sudden StI eSs

langor, headaches and listlessness that
ensue.
If rapid and abundant means are en-
ploycd to repair the exhausted parts the
nerves regain their elasticity. But if an
unnatural privation Of sleep is carried
beyond ike stretching power of the brain
the " hole nervous system becomes un.
