and good dairy managers-men who are
skilled in the whole branch OF modern
dairying. Such men can command
good wages and positions that would

dairy kept up. The dairy schools

young men who will take charge of
creaineries or dairics in the future, and

HERE AND THERE.

The impression is gaining that nc
other plant will yield more fodder to
the acre or give food which Gan be fed
with more satisfaction to the stock
than sorghum. 1t is good with the sc ed
on for fattening horses, cattle, sheep
or hogs.
Now that the winter season is here
and the conditions of many of our COM
mon roads renders traffic impossible,
the consideration of road improvements
might well occupy the minds of every
inhabitant of the country who owns
an acre of land.
There is continual advance in the
nature of methods which might be
made available for general use, but the
actual appropriation of these methods
to their own personal use by farmers
in general is a matter of slow growth.
1t is well to be conservative, but wrong
to be old fogyish.
Two things necessary to the best
development of the hog are plenty OF
exercise and plenty Of green feed.
These are as important to their health

confinement will take all the vigor out
of a hog, and, even if he becomes fat, IL
is an unhealthy development.
-One secret of successful farming
lies in the ready anticipation of what
each seasons work is to demand of the
farmer, and it is in the doing of many
things out Of season, rs some short
sighted people would look at it. Try
to transfer part of the spring work
to the fall and winter months.
The leaving of calves and young
cattle out in the field until snow flies
is neither humane nor profitable. 1t
pays to get all the live stock into win
ter quarters before the weather be-
comes cold, but this applies more espe-
cially to young animals; but the wise
farmer gives it a general application.
Good roads and good fences are
proofs indubitable of prosperity, and
nothing SO increases or maintains the
value of real estate. 1t is almost to be
wondered at that the farmer will ever
want to be compelled to take this step
"a step which will often increase the
value of his swampy acres hundred
fold.
Every bushel Of grain rnneces-
sarily fed to stock, whether it be to fat
ten or to carry through the winter in
good shape, is wasted, and Whenever
fodder crops can be used as feec for the
animals it should be done, as tt 9 grain
can be otherwise disposed of, and az

Small Farmers.

We find this is phrase which is dis
liked by many, but it is better to be a
good and successful small farmer than
an unthrifty and unsuccessful large
farmer. We often see business men
begin in a limited way and DO well un-
til they get aspiring. No sooner have
they made a little money than they
spread out, buy larger stock of goods
partly or chiefly on credit, and indulge
in ''great expectations" which fail of
realization. Many man can man.
age smaller business who gets out
of his depth when he tries to
conduct a. larger one. Or, il the f1uc-
tuations of trade, the times are not so
good, he can not sell the larger stock
he has got together; before times inn
prove many articles become 'anfashion-
able and go down in value and the is
sue is bankruptcy. In like manner,
many farmers who succeeded In small
way, go into this, that. and the other
thing until they get a bigger burden on
their shoulders than they csn carry.
They have a saying out west 4 bout men
taking in more land than theY can till,
which has passed into psOverb to
which there is a mighty moral. 1t is
rule everyone should observe, not to
take in more land than he car till, and
the farmer should obey this me kim in a
literal sense, not satisfying himself
with superficial of skim culture, but
thoroughly tilling every acre he puts
under the plow, or seeds down tograss.

In the year 1894, tho De Kal5 Fence Co.,
of De Kalb, ILL.,, doubled the capacity for
producing their lines over 1893 which gave
them an output of 90 miles per day. The
demand for their goods has been SO great
the past season, that in order to be able to
supply their trade, they have been com.
PEELED this year to double the capacity of
1884, which now gives them an output Of 40
miles per day.
