JIM'S JEWELED TOOTH.
Gold Crown Set with Diamonds in
the Jaws of IA Boston Bull Terrier.


Jim is a bull terrier whose pedigree
runs back through many generations
of distinguished ancestry. lie is an
aristocrat, born into luxury, and his
five years of life have been contin
uous round of contentment and ease,
says the Boston Evening Transcript.
Everything that a pampered canine
could possibly desire is lavished on
Jim. The choicest tidbits fall to his
portion. The smartest of up-to-date
collars adorns his neck, and every
night he is tucked up in his own bed
with the clothes well up under his
chin, lust So" before he will shut
his eyes to sleep. Yachting trips and
country holidays make his summers
pass pleasantly, while his winter
quarters are such as BELTS a dog of
his position and accomplishments
In point of luxurious living Jim is
not more favored than hundreds of
other Boston pets. He has one great
claim to distinction, however, which
makes him peculiarly interesting-he
is regular customer at the dentists.
Some time ago Jim's master real
lied that something was the matter
with his prize dog. He investigated
and found two decayed teeth. Ac-
cordingly they were pulled out. The
operation was not unattended with
difficulties, but Jim seemed to know
that the ordeal was for his ultima tie
good, and he behaved much better
than the average man or woman who
takes nothing" when the forceps are
applied. Relief from pain was evil
dent by the way he capered after the
troublesome molars were removed.
Not long after Jim's left cuspid,
which corresponds to the eye-tooth in
the human mouth, showed signs OF
decay in darllish spots. Again he was
conducted to the dental chair. This
time, a more delicate operation lad
to be undertaken, which the patient
bore with fortitude. An entire gold
crown was fitted, giving the appear
ance of a gold tooth. More than that,
three sparkling diamonds were set in
the polished surface. The largest is
near the gum and the smallest at the
point of the tooth. Much of the work
was done before the crown was ad-
jIsted, so the operation was probably
not as painful as might be mag
ined, although Jim has never ex-
pressed himself on the subject. He
knows when his remarkable tooth is
to be exhibited. He cocks his head to
one side and relaXes his jaw so it can
be easily seen.
Another of Jim's teeth, directly in
front, has become loosened, and it
win soon have to be treated by hav-
ing a bridge to tighten it.

CALVES WITHOUT MILK.
Those Raised In This Manner Rarely
Develop Into Good and Profit
able Dairy Cows.

i do not believe that a good calf
can be raised without milk, says
correspondent of the Rural New York
er, and in these days, when good COWS
are so highly valued, it seems piece
of the worst kind of shortsightedness
and mismanagement to try to pro-
duce a first-class cow from calf
stunted in the beginning of its life.
1t may appear like economy to take
milk from the calf and sell it to the
creamery, cheese factory or milk sta
ton, but it is a poor economy. The
cows of the future demand that the
calves of to-day be well nourished.
Ten or twelve pounds of new milk
daily will carry a calf nicely until it
is ten days or two weeks old. Then,
If the milk is made into butter, there
is skim milk to feed. Change from
whole to skim milk gradually and at
the same time supply the fat by
feeding corn meal, making the calf
eat it dry. Later add some oats,
ground preferred, but whole if ground
ones are not obtainable, and bran or
middlings. If the milk of the dairy
goes to a cheese factory, feed whole
milk until the calf is at least a month
old. Then feed sweet whey, not the
sour stuffwhich is bailed out at 80 per
cent. of the cheese factories. Feed in
small quantities at first and increase
gradually while the milk is decreased.
At the same time feed some grain,
composed of linseed meal, bran, mid
dlings or oats and little corn meal.
If the milk is sold outright from the
farm and nothing brought back, then
keep the calf on whole milk until
it is old enough to thrive on hay,
grain and water, and see what a fine
calf it is! 1t is a good practice in or
dinary dairies, where the milk supply
is short, to raise only enough calves
to keep the herd up, and those only
from the best cows, and give them
extra care

CONSTRUCTING A SILO.
Some of the Things to BE Taken Into
Consideration by Those About
to Build One.

Let it be air-tight. Your wife would
hardly expect fine favored fruit for
her table had not the glass jar been
hermetically sealed.
The slaves forming the silo must be
beveled, tongued and grooved. Any
height desired can be reached if the
ends of the slaves are properly Joined
together, the best known plan for do
ing this being to use a metal spline,
which when finished is wholly con-
cealed and makes the stave from bot
tom to top as good as if of one solid
piece.
Use round iron for hoops, extra
heavy size at the base, medium in mid
die of silo, and little lighter at the
top. Locate hoops some nearer to-
gether for large silos than for small
ones, the average distance apart be-
ing about two feet.
On 16-foot diameter silo each hoop
needs two draw lugs and correspond
Ing nuts. Two lugs answer usually on

GRADING UP A HERD.
Some Highly Instructive Figures
Which Show what Feed and
Management VIII Do.

In the grading up of herd, expert
ment station work has shown that
proper care and feeding count for
much in milk production and may do
much to improve the milking quail
ties of otherwise poor COWS. Conse-
quently, before a COW is rejected it
should be determined that the fault
for low production lies with the COW
herself. and not with the feed and
care she has received. AT the Kansas
experiment station herd of 90 COM
mon scrub cows, which "were below
the average COWS of the state" were
them by proper handling. The aver
age yield of milk per COW under such
handling was 5.707 pounds, the poor
est COW giving $3.50 pounds; and the
average yield of butter fat was 23s
pounds, the poorest COW giving 1857
pounds. The value of the butter fat
averaged S3775 per COW. To compare
this with the conditions in the state,
the records were collected of SO herds
in one of the leading dairy sections
The average annual yield was found
TO De 3,441 pounus OF milk per cow
and 104.3 pounds of butter fat, the
value of which was 1870
The greatest yield secured from the
scrub herd is attributed by the sta
ton to three causes: First, at all
times their rations were either bal
anced or contained an excess of pro-
tein-the material which builds blood
and milk while the Kansas cow
usually, when on dry feed, has only
half enough protein. Second, kind
ness and shelter. Our scrub cows
were petted, comfortably sheltered,
never driven faster than slow walk
and never spoken to in an unkind
tone. Third, a full milk yield was Sc
cured through the summer drought
by giving extra feed.-Ohio Farmer.

THE DAIRY TYPE COW,
Instructive Figures Taken from the
Averages of IA Large Herd for
"a Series of Years.

Careful experiments show that tn,
dairy type of COW yields on an average
$500 pounds of milk yearly, while the
cow with beef heredity and tendency
yields 4,5O0 pounds under similar condi
tions, says the Farm, Stock and Home
When milk brings a dollar hundred
as is now the case, the net income from
the butter from the dairy COW, who's,
milk averages four per cent. fat, is $45
while that from the COW of beef typ,
and whose milk only averages 35 pei
cent. fat, is only $27. The feeding VALUE
of the skim milk giving four per cent
butter is worth one-seventh more pei
pound than is the milk containing 35
per cent. Adding the actual value OF
the skim milk of each cow to the net re.
turns for butter, we get from the dairy
COW $55 and from the other $33. These
figures are taken from averages of a
herd for a series of years and under the
most fayorabl conditions. Another
very important result should be noted
in this connection, and that is that the
rows having a fiesh-forming tendency
remain useful in the herd for only half
as long as do the dairy type cows, and
that the former are more apt to con.
tract disease than is the spare COW.

TIMELY DAIRY NOTES.

In feeding the calves there should be
no guess work about the quantity or
the temperature of the milk.
The average price of butter the past
year was two and a half cents pound
higher than the year preceding.
The attendance on dairy schools is
Increasing, and the capacity OF all Of
them will have to be enlarged before
many years.
The well-treated cow evinces a dispo-
sItion to put her owner and her calf on
the same footing. That is the best she
San do by her owner.-Rural World.

ROUND SILO WITH ALL OPEN
FRONT.

each hoop. They might be of cast iron,
but malleable are better, safer.
The lumber should be thoroughly
well seasoned and of good grade.
Some kinds are more liable than others
to shrink and swell. Let this be
thought of. Experience has shown
that cypress and white hemlock give
good results.
The willing boy or hired man may
be ambitious to handle the brush.
Let them occasionally spread coat OF
u suitable wood preservative over the
inside surface of the silo, and paint the
exterior.
For removing the ensilage from the
silo there must be openings in the form
OF doors, or an open section. Doors
were formerly used until something
more economical and labor-saving was
devised. The silage being such a heavy
product and so concentrated, it IS econ.
omy in labor and cost of handling to
have the silo that is made with a con-
tinuous opening front. This allows
the discharge out of the silo at all
points down the front of the vessel as
the feeding season advances.
Ensilage originated from the felt
need of having a low cost succulent
cattle food for winter feeding. So well
has it served that purpose that when
the midsummer pastures become short
the silo is coming to be well regarded
also for summer and autumn feeding.
This should be remembered when the
size of the silo is chosen.-Farm Jour-
nal.

Talking about the queer ways some peo-
pie have of sizing up a mans capabilities
for job, said resident of Paterson, N.
j., to a Washington Star reporter the other
day, there recently died in my town a
boss carpenter named Hobart, who had one
question which he always asked of journey
men who applied to him for employment.
If the applicant was found to possess all
the other necessary qualifications Hobart
would ask:
"What are your favorite tunes?"
why, what do you want to know that
for?'
You whistle and sing some at your work,
don't you"'
"Oh, yes
"Well, what tunes do you generally whis-
tie or sing?"
"Oh, there's Old Hundred, and Aud
Lang Syne,' and Down by the Weeping
That's enough" the boss would exclaim.
"9ou won't do for me. These tunes are
too slow for me. Good-day"
On the contrary, if the applicant answered: j:
"Oh, | generally whistle Yankee Doodle
or The Fishers Hornpipe, or something of
that sort, the carpenter would say at once:
Il think you'll do! Take off your coat
if you want to and go to work.
