WATER IN ABUNDANCE.
II Ii Absolutely Essential to the
Highest and Most Perfect MIX
Production.

An abundant supply of water. easily
obtained whenever the COW wants it,
is necessary to the highest milk produc-
ton. About 81 per cent. of milk is wa
ter, and if the cows supply of water
is limited the milk yielded is proper
tionately reduced. 1t pays to furnish
pure, palatable water summer and WIN
ter, so that the COW will drink large
quantities, as, within reasonable limits,
an increase in water consumption
brings an increase in the milk yield.
Some dairymen are obliged to water
their cows in summer from artificial
ponds When this is the case the pond
should be fenced and the water drawn
off into trough by pipe controlled
always be full of clean water. When
COWS are allowed to stand in pond
the water becomes indescribably filthy
and the cows will not drink enough to
maintain full milk yield. Such water
is liable to faint the milk and some of
the filth which collects on the cows
body while standing in the water is
very apt to fall into the pail at milking.
This summer we saw dairy cows drink
ing from ponds in which they stood
and in which pigs wallowed. Milk from
single herd of COWS watered in this
way might faint the entire product of
a creamery.
In winter dairy cows which have poor
shelter and are obliged to drink ice
| water from creek dread the chill and
| often do not drink as much water as
! needed. 1t will often pay to warm the
water, using one of the cheap heaters
on the market.
On stormy days if cows are exposed
while drinking the milk yield will be
reduced sometimes as much as 25 per
| cent, and when the weather is bad it
will pay either to have the watering
| trough under shed or else carry wa
| ter to the COWS and let them stay in
| the stable. "N
There are devices on the market
which keep supply of water constant
ly before cows in the stable, and tests
made with these devices show that
when used the milk yield is increased
over that given by any other method of
watering.-Western Plowman.

BROAD TIRES ON CURVED SURFACE
is so soft that the broad-tired wagon
sinks into the ground to any consid-
cradle extent, the draft is so heavy
that hauling is almost impossible.
On roadbeds which have curved
surface. as shown IN the accompanying
illustration. broad tires are a disad-
vantage. as only the inner surface
touches the edge of the road, and the
leverage produces greater friction at
than would be caused by the use of
narrow tires. The wider the tire the
more friction, and the harder the load
pulls. This principle also applies to
roads that are full of stones and upon
roads which have frozen and uneven
surfaces. Roads which slope to one
side or the other cause the same diff
Guilty. This applies to roads about a
farm, and where the land is hilly the
objection is more pronounced. OF
course the increased leverage is not SO
perceptible unless the surface of the
ground is hard. Just how much differ
ence in draft there is between wagons
with narrow tires and those with
broad on curved road surface has
never been accurately determined. but
it is considerable. - Orange Judd

Economy Of HOrnless Cows.

When it comes to putting up cows for
winter, the COW that has no horns will
be found to take much less room than
her neighbor who is tempted to and
generally does hook and fight all those
near her. In the stable, of course, each
stall will accommodate it's COW, horns
or no horns. But we believe that horned
cattle are often kept in stables on
bright, pleasant, winter days, to keep
them from hooking one another, when
they would be much healthier if allowed
to run in a small yard. Most barnyards
are made much larger than would be
necessary if all horns were removed
This wastes manure, as more surface
is exposed to rains, and the droppings
in a large yard are often SO scattered
that they are never gathered into heaps
and carried where they are needed

TRAFFIC HAMPERED.
Good Roads Sermons Taken ut Ran.
dom from n Number of Illinois
Local Newspapers.

| That the good roads "fad" has more
of a foundation than have many Of the
roads themselves, is apparent to any
one who is in position to read the pa
pers of the land. From the local papers
of a single state Qllinois), where roads
are about as they are in many other
states-we CLEAN the following: At
Chandlerville, "The roads are SO rough
! the doctors are taking the train when
they can to go TO see their patients, and
| when that is not convenient, they
walk" At Pleasantview 1.-The warm
weather stopped the wood haulers,
owing to bad roads," At Jacksonville
news agent announces that ION and
after January Is, the delivery of Sun
streets not paved, until the conditions
of the roads improve At Plymouth
"Coal is again in demand by many Of
our people. The roads have been so
everlasting muddy, the haulers of coal
from the ridge could not get in with
load.' a Bloomington paper says: "In
most towns of central Illinois, grain
hauling is suspended until the roads
are BETTER" etc.
Now all of the foregoing would lead one
to infer that the good roads movement
has more back of it than ga mere hand
full of bicyclists. who want farmers to
build good roads, SO that cycling may
be enjoyed by those city fellows"
1t is gratifying to know that even the
farmers are now looking at the question
in the right light, and are showing a dis
position to work hand in hand with
cyclists for the benefit and betterment
of all concerned.-Good Roads.

Aim for Good Cows.

What we dairymen should aim at is
to secure the best cows we can. and try
testing each cows milk by churning
separately. and ascertain for sure
whether they pay for their keeping and
give US little profit. We can be salts
fed with a small profit, but cannot af-
ford to keep cows at loss for the be-
uevolent purpose of supplying dairy
