Admiral Dewey's Answer.

Everybody remembers the sad case Of
the Southern postmaster who answered
the inquiry of one of his chiefs as to how
far up into the country the Tombigbee
River ran, by saying that it did not run
up at all, but down, and who subse-
quently lost his place. Admiral Dewey
recently accumulated a big pile of coal
at Cavite. The other day one of the
bureau chiefs sent him this cablegram:
"What have you bought such an enor-
nous quantity of coal for?" The return
message didn't cost the Government
much for cable tolls. 1t read: ITO
burn" Admiral Dewey still holds his
job. He seems to haye more of a pull
than did the Georgia postmaster.

CONVENIENT FEED RACK.
1t Assures Economy and Makes the
Taking Care of Live Stock
Comparatively Easy.

AS economy has become very impor-
tant matter in the feeding and taking
care of stock, I thought would contrib
ute a method of making a convenient,
portable and cheap hay and fodder
rack, of which send you rude draw
ing, from which you can make an illus
tration. There is no patent on it. It is
one that my father used when was o
boy. 1t can be made out of old discard
ed lumber. Two by four inch studding
can be used for corner posts; four by
four would be better. They should be
made about seven feet square, four OF

five inches wide. Inch lumber can be
used. The corner post should be about
seven feet long; six will do. AS you will
notice, there can four cattle feed at
each rack, if they have horns, and more
without. The beauty of the rack is
when it gets full of trash or it becomes
muddy around the rack it can be raised
up and set at another place, as it has no
bottom. If it is made out of new lumber
it will last quite awhile by placing q
couple of old boards under the corners
to keep it off of the ground. Ihave long
thought of presenting the matter, but
had neglected it. By looking at the
sketch you will become convinced o1
it's utility.-D. w. Thuma, in Farmers

FEEDING SKIM MILK.
How to Avoid InjurinG the Calves
and Innicting Upon Them In
diEestiOn and ScOurs.

A correspondent writes asking some
advice as to how to feed young calves
on skim milk. The essential points in
growing calves on skim milk are that
the milk be sweet when fed, that it be
blood warm, that it be not fed in too
large quantities and that it be proper
ly supplemented with suitable meals.
Cold and sour milk almost invariably
disturbs digestion and produces scours,
which may or may not result seriously,
but it is at best certain to interrupt the
growth and thrift of the calf. A great
many calves are injured by over-feed-
ing SKINNED milk. the effort being to
make up in quantity for the fact that
the milk is less nutritious than whole
milk. The better way to meet this OBJ
lection to the skim milk is to add corn
meal and linseed meal, that Is, ground
linseed, to the milk. The proportion
of the linseed to the cornmeal may be
about one part to ten. The amount of
skim milk to be given will vary with the
appetite and age of the calf, but from
12 to 20 pounds per day is liberal guam
tity, and with a sufficient addition OF
meals, good calves have been raised on
considerably less than this amount.
When the calf is born it is best to give
whole milk at first, gradually substitute
ing skim milk, increasing the quantity
of the latter until it is all skim, in about
ten days or two weeks. For 80 days
feed an average of about one pound OF
cornmeal per day, with one-tenth as
much linseed meal to each IL pounds Of
milk, will be sufficient, the amount Of
the meal being light in the early part
of the feeding period and gradually in
creased. Hay should be added as soor
| as the calves can be induced to take it
If it is difficult to get linseed mea
| ground, boil the linseed to jelly ans
| add 1t to the milk in that way.-Lv'
