Good business Sense.

An Illinois farmer who had been SELL
ing his milk for two cents quart
thought he would try for part of the
trade of small town near him where
the retail price was five cents. Helm
vited the people to come out to his farm
upon q certain day, and he showed
them over the farm, exhibited his stock
and explained his system of feeding
and general management. Then came
the milking. The milkmen came out
with clean shirts and snow white aprons,
bringing pals of hot and cold water.
They thoroughly washed their hands
and than the udders and teats of the
COWS with warm water and CASTLE soap,
rinsing them carefully and wiping dry.
The vessels for holding the milk were
bright and clean, the stables and walls
were clean. The milk was strained,
aerated, quickly cooled and placed in 9
cool, clean cellar. All the details were
explained to-. the visitors as the work
progressed, and they went home salts.
fed that there they could obtain clean
and wholesome milk. The next day he
sought customers and found market
for all he could supply at six cents q
quart, or cent above the market rate
in the town, and it was but little more
trouble to deliver it than to have car
ried it to the railroad station and send
it to Chicago for two cents quart

Wood Ashes for Cows,

In the early settlement of the country,
when cows had access to newly cleared
land with its burned and charred
stumps, they used often to go to where
stumps had been burned and lick up
the charcoal. Many farmers believe
that cows thus allowed free range were
less liable to ABSORPTION than those kept
in close stables. The ashes probably
satisfied some want in the animal econ.
omy. 1t may nave been the phosphate
they contain which .is required by the
bones of the growing foetus. If COWS
eat too much the potash in the ashes
corrects the acidity of their stomachs,
which often results where stock is high
ly fed in stables where it has little exer.
else.
Manchester Democrat. [volume] (Manchester, Iowa) 1875-1930, 1899-04-12
What the Calves Want,

If a calf has ration of half oats and
half corn and half feed of it or lit
tie more-that is, little more than half
of what it would eat up clean if it had
a chance-and if the place of the grass
is taken by good clover hay, with
shelter from storms and protection
from excessive cold, with plenty of salt
and pure water, the calf will pay for it
all, even if corn were 40 cents bushel.
We would not feed an all-corn ration,
because the calf requires muscle form
ing material, and oats and bran are the
cheapest foods of this kind. We would
not feed all oats or bran, especially in
severe weather, because corn is needed
to keep up the heat and round out the
muscles.-Wallace's Farmer.

Counterfeit Food Products.

An imitation is counterfeit and a
counterfeit is fraud pc, Sc, and should
have no rights before the law as against
an honest product of the farm. No
matter how many hired chemists assert
to the contrary, counterfeit food pro-
ducts are a menace to the health of the
public, and the prosperity of the farm
and the nation. In every state there is
needed dairy and food commission to
act as bureau for the enforcement of
good laws against food, drug and drink
counterfeiting. The only law we have
is the enforced law. This body can,
and in my opinion should, express no
doubtful opinion on these Subjects
