PRACTICAL
FARM NOTES

Read the advertisements In this pa
per-no Quackery among them.
We can never get my million subscrtb-
ers unless you stick to the paper. So
it depends upon you.
Learn which is your most successful
crop and stay by it.
There is one thing certain, If your
cattle are standing bumped up in the
barnyard you are losinei monoy.
Every pound of flesh host during cold
weather goes to the side of the
cash book, and every pound saved is so
much gained : '4s
Cows will do much better with salt
constantly before them. There is a
difference in the churning of the cream
and the product is much better.
Above all thingsIbe sure that you
have kind, thoughtful man to care
for the COWS during the winter.
If you have brutal lunkhead in the
stable you will lose money every day.
No great good comes without looking
after it.
Give the idle horses wheat BRAN 1t
will keep them in much better condition
than to winter them upon hay alone.
It will cost no more Never stuff a
horse or colt with hay.
Feed light grain ration in connec-
ton with good clover hay and you will
get strong lambs and a good flow OF
milk. Wheat bran is good.
The buck should not run with the
ewes after they are in lamb, as he may
cause much or serious damage by his
habit of butting.
When is a clock on the stairs danger.
GUS? When it runs down and strikes
one
Fresh clean water is very necessary to
the sheep. See to it that they have this
now. Also salt where they can lick it
We must not winter ticks this year,
If we do we will have poor sheep.
Find out by experimenting what your
animals need to keep in a good thrifty
condition.
Feed steadily throughout the year
Stuff not when there is lots of grain,
and scrimp not when it's short.
An exchange of ideas regarding farm
! operations during neighborly visits will
expand the mind and help 20 make
both parties better farmers Engaging
| in small talk and gossip will do nei-
Their.
When you see caterpillar apparently
! covered with small, white eggs, don't
kill him. They are not eggs at all, but
| the cocoons of some small flies, whose
maggots live inside the caterpillar and
thus kill large numbers of them. One
of natures own remedies. Don't dis
| turb her!
He that falls today may be up again
! tomorrow.
Boil files half an hour in one quart
Of water to which four ounces of soda
has been added. Rinse, dry and i'm
merse in one quart Of rain water and
four ounces sulphuric acid. Coarse files
| require twelve hours and fine ones six
| hours. Then wash. thoroughly, dry
| quickly and rub with little sweet oil.
The gentlest bull that ever lived
should not be trusted. He may live to
an old age, and do no harm; but he
cannot be trusted with safety. It's
born in him to be inclined toward ugli-
ness and treachery. Put big knobs On
his horns-not the ordinary small ones,
but such as are two inches in diameter.
Put a ring in his nose, and never take
him from his stanchion without fasten-
ing to this ring such a staff as will hold
him away. With this he cannot get
| away nor charge upon his keeper

Bright, clean tools are usually owned
by a bright farmer.
To delay milking at the proper time
will do more to cause a cow to go dry
before her period than anything else
She should also be MIXED to the last
drop if possible, for the last portion Of
milk is said to be the richest. Still an
other point: There are many ways of
conducting dairy. Among them are:
Wholesome food, such as wheat bran,
cotton seed meal. Always be careful to
keep the cows we'll sailed, protected
from bad weather, giving kind hand
ling, careful milking, regular feeding,
clear stabling, good ventilation and
plenty of pure water.-Farmers Trib-
une.
