RAISING WHEY CALVES.
They Should BE Fed Three Times a
Day in Clean, Elevated TrOughs
Fixed Buckets.

In raising calves on whey, avoid two
extremes; do not feed it too sweet or
too sour. 1t should be moderately
acid, nothing more. Insist on your
cheese maker keeping perfectly clean
storage whey vat, and if he fails to
clean and scald it every day. take a
clean barrel to the factory for your
portion of whey. l have known farmers
to go to the factory to get sweet whey
every forenoon, for immediate feeding
to calves, but the young animals did
not particularly thrive on it.
The majority feed it to their calves
when the whey is "a hours old. 1t de-
pends on the receptacle the swill has
been kept in, whether it is then in a
proper state for best results. If it
has been stored in a filthy whey vat
or barrel, it is unfit to feed to any CO.
mestic animal. In hot weather, even
after daily washing and scalding of the
storage tub, care should be taken that
the whey does not get too sour. Keep
it in a COOL airy place. Above all. do
not depend on whey alone for the sue
cessful rearing of calves. If you do,
they will become pet-bellied and stunt
ed. Give them the range of nice
pasture partially shaded, so that half
of their sustenance at least will be
from grass.
Feed them whey three times daily
in a clean, elevated trough, or fixed
buckets. If they do not thrive suifi-
GENTLY on this, add little oil meal.
Keep calves by themselves, and do not
tolerate swine or sheep in the same
inclosure. The idea is to keep calves
growing and developing naturally, if
you would obtain healthy, vigorous
cows. Cramped quarters, lack of va
riety of food and insufficient nourish-
ment make puny, Improbable heiferG

Study the Market Reports.

Every orchardist should make him
self familiar With the fruit-crop con-
ditions of each year. In that way
only can he know how valuable is
the fruit hanging on his trees. A
few years ago, when everything point.
ed to the probability of high prices
for apples, the farmers in some coun-
ties almost gave away their apples.
Buyers that understood the conditions
bought up crops on the trees at ten
cents per bushel and made enormous
profits out of the transaction. The
growers thus failed to get their part
of the profits. What shall it profit
man to spend money and time in
planting an orchard and bringing it
into bearing and then give away its
product? The grower should get
more out of it than any other per-
son; yet it is too often the middleman
that gets all the profits.-Farmers

difficult for the housekeeper to take in
the pail in the morning. The cut shows
a small casing, which may be attached
to the door frame at the right height
to place the pail within convenient
reach. small opening in the top of
the casing allows the shank of the angle
iron on the can to be inserted, while a
sliding catch at the rear of the casing
engages notch cut in the side of the
shank. The latch extends backward to
the edge of the door, so that when the
latter is closed it prevents the latch be-
ing drawn backward to release the
shank. Besides preventing theft this
device also supports the can in posi-
ton to remove the danger of tipping
it over with the foot, and there will be
no milk stains to clean up, as is often
the case when the can is placed on the
steps. The inventor is Louis Munich,
of Philadelphia.-Chicago Daily News.

PRIVATE DAIRYING.
Results Are Bound to Be Rea-
sOnably Satisfactory.

AS a matter of fact the private dairy
man has a decided advantage over the
creamery butter-maker, so says Mrs.
Carrie Wilson in a paper read before
the Vermont State Dairy association.
He controls the feeding of his cows
and the handling of the milk from the
time it is drawn from the COW until the
butter is made. The patrons of the
creamery always have among them
one or more who are not as careful or
as cleanly in their methods as they
might be, nor does the carrying of
the milk or cream one to three miles
on hot day add to its desirable quail
ties; but the creamery buttermaker
is an expert; he is methodical, exact,
and knows how to offset to some ex-
tent the carelessness of his patrons.
Hence his product is more even in
quality and flavor than that of the
average private dairy. If all private
dairies were conducted on the same
lines as the most successful creamer-
les, then the product of the former
would in nearly every instance excel
that of the latter. This is not written
in the way of disparaging the cream
cry. Quite the contrary. 1t has been
the main factor in improving the quail
tiles of the dairy herds, the methods
OF the dairyman and the quality of the
butter made in this and other states.
1t would have required long years, per.
haps a generation, to bring about the
improvements in dairying that the
creamery has done in the past ten. We
only wish that every poor buttermak-
er in the state would become patrons of
a creamery. 1t would not only help
the quality of the butter market, but it
would be great help to the market
by ridding it of the vast amount of
wretched stuff which now crowds it and
depresses prices. But the private dairy.
man. just the same, has advantages
which the creamery cannot, from the
nature of the business, enjoy.

IT GOT HIM A LICKING.
An OhiOan's Hard Luck when start.
ing Out as a Newspaper
Reporter.

Col. n. S. Jones, who presides over the
matrimonial bureau of the probate court,
had his newspaper aspirations chilled in a
moment when he was starting out in life He
was living in the little town of Genoa, O.,
and the proprietor of the country weekly
asked him if he would not write ''squib''
occasionally, says the Toledo Bee The
colonel promised, as he saw an opening in
the newspaper field, and had long yearned
for chance to secure a place in the profes,
sion which seemed to him to offer many in
dncements. Consequently be wrote up sew
eral items. Hard luck came at the start
Among the first of his items was the follow
ing:

man, Seth Bennett, is the greatest man in
the. world. He licked his wife the other
night and came out without a scratch"
Hardly had the paper appeared on the
street before Seth was on the lookout for
the colonel, and found him. Now all that
the colonel remembers of the fray was that
he gave Seth a harder fight than Seth's wife
had done. But he severed his connection
with the paper Immediately. He carried
scars for weeks to remind him of his first and
only. experience as a molder of the public

Bees Carry Heavy Weight.

Observations made to test this ques-
tion showed that bees can carry with
ease twice their weight in honey. Sew
eral bees were caught as they returned
to their hives laden with honey, and,
after inclosing them in a little box.
they were carefully weighed. When the
bees unloaded their honey, they were
again caught, placed in the same box
and weighed a second time. This ex-
pertinent showed that the bees when
laden weighed three times as much as
when empty. 1t was therefore proved
that a bee can carry twice its own
weight in honey, and can fly very long
distances with that weight.-Rural
