nigh Feeding ana Gareet.

AS the COW or other breeding animal
approaches time of parturition, high
feeding, either to stimulate milk flow
or to make it richer, should for the time
be suspended. OF the two, the kinds
that tend to make the milk richer, or, in
other words, to fatten the COW, are
worst. But we should not advise any
farmer to feed heavily with grain which
will cause fever and make the animals
feverish, though this may be natures
effort to lessen the milk flow SO that
the udder can hold it. The food should
be laxative rather than constipating.
Ensilage and roots Of all kinds are good
It not given in too large amounts. The
only grain given should be three or four
nubbins of corn daily until the calf is
dropped. The cow will eat these readi-
~, and they will cleanse the stomach
preparatory to the time when parturi-
ton begins.-American Cultivator.

COST OF Hay SHEDS
Il IL Absolutely lnsaenaaca>e wAsn
COMPARED with the Saving
They Always Eject.

One Of the common leaks upon the
farm is in stacking hay, as often q large
part of the crop is left out for months.
If the work is poorly done great loss
and damage is the result, however good
the quality of the hay may have been
when stacked. The cost of building
suitable hay sheds in addition to the
NOW room of the barn need not be
great. A shed 90 by 30 feet and IA feet
to the caves can be erected at slight
cost. Several years ago built such q
one, setting the posts on rock and spik-
ing stringers and plates to the posts,
using six-inch bolts which 1 bought
and had a blacksmith sharpen. Holes
should be bored in the stringers and
plates; then drive the bolts into the
posts solid. Such a plan is much better
than to use spike nails. Any rough
lumber will do for siding, and the shed
should be covered with clapboards or
shingles. Have an opening at one end
for unloading hay. By building the
shed larger and higher one could put in
carrier and hay fork. Place the
lower stringers two feet from the
ground and a scantling is inches above
it; then after your siding is on go round
and saw holes out of it two feet wide,
which will make them 10 inches high;
saw holes every three feet. This makes
a capital place to feed cattle, and they
will waste scarcely any hay. A low
shed built around three sides of the hay
shed will make n good protection for
cattle, siding up the west and north
sides. Cattle will do in such quarters
almost as we'll as in expensive barns.
By building the corncrib near the shed
and feeding corn once day cattle will
winter finely, and for quite while can
reach hay for themselves, and when it
gets beyond them push it down from
the top all round and you have good
manager. This way is not perfect, of
course, but it has the merit of cheap
ness and efficiency, and is very salts
factory way to feed hay, as have tried
it for years. This plan of feeding is
intended for cattle from two to three
years old.-Prairie Farmer.

MILK cows CLEAN.
BY No Other Method Gun All the But.
ter Fat Con tnined in the Milk
BE Obtained.

1t is well-known fact that COWS not
MIXED clean will tend to dry up in short
order. Another important reason for
MIXED clean will tend to dry up in short
fat, which is contained in a. much larger
per cent. in the last than in the first
milk drawn, as is shown by the follow
ing experiment.:
The Kansas state college dairy has
conducted an experiment showing the
importance of clean milking. Five cows
that were giving fair quantity of milk
were selected, and their milk collected
in half-pint bottles. each teat contrib
uting its share to every bottle. These
samples were tested with the Babcock
test, with the following results:
Cow No. 6 varied from 6 of per cent.
to 7.2 per cent.
Cow No. 10 varied from 2 of per cent.
to &C per cent.
Cow No. IA varied from 1.6 per cent.
to SD per cent.
Cow No. IS varied from is per cent.
to 6.s per cent.
Cow No. 20 varied from of per cent.
to rs per cent.
The results show gradual, although
not entirely uniform, increase in the
per cent. of fat from the beginning to
the last of the milking, except with the
last two samples drawn from each COW.
Here the per cent. of fat would take q
sudden leap, amounting often to a
third or q half of the total variation.
This shows very clearly how important
it is to get all the milk. By averaging
the results it was found that the last
quarter of pint was worth from three
fourths to one and a half pints of milk
first drawn from the udder. Moral:
Milk clean and get fat.-D. H. Otis, in
Western Rural.

DAIRY SUGGESTIONS.

Don't try to make good butter when
milk and cream are kept in unventi-
lated cellars.
Turn off the old cows. It is not wis.
dom to keep COWS after they are eight
years old, as q rule.
Whenever you see black pepsin rec
commended for the increase of the but
ter product, countit as fraud.
Do you know what profit each Of your
cows yield you? If you are butter
maker it is possible and profitable.
In selling a COW for mixer, be hon
est with the persons to whom you sell.
Establish q reputation for fair dealing.
Are you not aware that it takes extra
feed to run" COW in cold weather,
just as it requires extra coal to ''run" a
stove?
If any of our readers milk eight or
ten cows they cannot afford to set the
milk in cans. Separate. Get a sep
arator.
The dairy is, without question, more
profitable than wheat growing in Min
nesota and in many sections of both
Dakotas.
If, after feeding the proper milk
making food to your cows, you are still
unable to obtain good quality of milk,
try giving her fat-making substance
and dispose of her.
When anyone gets where he thinks he
can learn nothing he might as we'll die,
and perhaps he will get somewhere
where there is something to learn.
There is . good deal for the best of us
yet to learn in the dairy.
Every pound of butter made in the
country should grade as prime butter,
!; and will if all buttermakers will learn
all that readily can be learned about
the Observation-Disclosures Plowman.

Test Each ana Every Cow.

What we dairymen should aim at is
to secure the best cows we can, and try
testing each cows milk separately and
ascertain for sure whether they pay for
their keeping and give us little profit.
We can be satisfied with small profit,
but cannot afford to keep cows at q
loss for the benevolent purpose of sup
plying dairy products to consumers at
. low cost. Excelsior should be the
watchword, and the poorer cows kept
only until their places can be filled by
better.--Farmers' Review.

Tuberculin rest succcssfol.

The tuberculin test was employed by
the Ohio station with satisfactory re-
suits. Thirty-one cows and bulls were
subjected to the test and IA Of those
responded. These latter were re-treated
about two months later, and the re-
suits then confirmed the first test.
Finally the entire herd of the station
was tested, with the result of adding sew
eral more to the list of suspected cases.
About ten months from the first test
the animals were re-tested and Is head
killed. The tubercnlin test was con-
firmed in every particular. most of the
animals being SO diseased as to be con-
demned as unfit for food; yet they had
shown no external symptoms Of the
disease and were in good flesh and ap-
parently perfectly healthy.

HARRISBURG, Pa, Oct. 11.-Henry NJ.
Foote, OF Tioga county, is Here as the at
torney for the State for the collection Of
about $4,000 600 claimed to be due from
the United States on account of interest
paid by the commonwealth on bonds pur-
chased in april and August, 1861, to aid
the Government in the suppression OF the
rebellion. He examined data in the State
treasury and the auditor generals de-
partment with a view of fully fortifying
himself with the information to be used
in the contest. In 1861 Pennsylvania bcr-
rowed SO. SOC, 900 by direction of the Nation
al Government to equip the Federal army.
and issued bonds payable in ten years
The interest on these bonds aggregated
81. 100000, and while the United States
Government long since restored the prin-
cipal to the State it has refused tc allow
accumulated interest under old established
precedents that it would not recognize
claims of this character except required
to do SO by special acts of Congress
A decision was made by the Federal Su-
preme Court in 1896 involving the liability
of the Government in such claims under
which Mr.. Foote believes the State has a
good show to collect at least large part
of the amount alleged to be due to it.
This judicial deliverance in effect decided
that interest paid by the State on bonds
for money borrowed to equip troops for
war, who were afterwards mustered into
the United States service, was proper
cost which the United States should reim-
burse to the State under the provisions OF

TORPEDO BOAT WORK STOPPED
A Strike of Shipbuilders Delays the
"a New Craft.

NEW YORK. Oct. 11.-Work On the
three torpedo boats, Bailey, Stewart, and
Wilkes, needed for service in the Philip
pines, virtually is at a s;andstill because
of strike by 200 boiler makers and IRON
workers. a
The three boats are building in the ship
yards of Charles L. Seabury, at Morris
Heights. Two weeks ago the men went
out. settlement of the trouble seems as
far away now as at the start. A force of
nom striking mechanics is quartered in the
yards, but the men are inexperienced in
boat building and little is being accom-
plished. The strikers demand a nine hour
day with full pay based on ten hours work.
Mr.. Seabury refuses and says that he will
fight the issue out if it takes all winter.
The Bailey is nearly complete. She was
to have been launched next week, but the
strike has made that impossible. The other
boats are in various stages of construction.
The Bailey Is the first boat of her type to
be constructed in this vicinity. The Gov
ernment is in a hurry for her. She was de-
signed especially for. service in the Philip
pines and will carry two 1S-inch torpedo
tubes and four six-pound rapid-fire guns.
