and see our dear ones suffer while
awaiting the arrival of the doc

man called at a drug store there
for a doctor to come and see his

Not finding the doctor in, he left
word for him to come at once on
his return. He also bought a
bottle of Chamberlain's Cough

give some relief until the doctor
should arrive. In a few hours
he returned, saying the doctor
need not come, as the child was

FEEDING FOR PROFIT.

In handling cattle be gentle with

slowly, and see to it that each steer
gets his share. 1t is best to take about
three weeks to get them on full feed.
Corn fodder with ears on) is good to
give them at first Scatter it over the
ground. But this is not practical ex-
cept for small bunch. Feed regularly
twice . day and always go an hour be-
fore feeding time and clean out the
managers. If the corn is not too large
and hard it may be fed with shucks on,
breaking the ears. Big, heavy, solid
ears should be shelled. Crushing cob
and grain is some advantage, but may
not pay for the expense. If you feed
cob meal, always feed some ear corn
also. Give steers their choice.

half of the gain you put on consists of
water and it is about the cheapest food

hogs to take up the waste YOU can

Oilcake or cottonseed meal five pounds

to feed thin lot of steers on full grain

THE CAD FLY GRUB


Many of our readers are doubtless a
. loss to know what the punches
are that they find upon the backs o.
their cattle at this time of year, and
which contains large, disgusting grub
The grub in question is the larva of the
CAD fly of the OK (hypodermis bovis)
and is deposited under the skin in the
shape of an egg at the time in summer
when the cattle are seen to dash about
the pasture in alright. The grubs are
the cause of an immense amount Of ir-
ritstion to the cattle and also cause a
serious damage to the;hide for the pur-
poses ofthe tanner. Thef'warbles" us
thetumors are called may be prevented
witha fair amount of success by smear
ing the backs of the cattle with some
bad-smelling substance, as crude car
bolic acid one part, fish oil eight parts.
The backs of the cattle should be
washed occasionally, during fly time
with strong salt water, as this has been
found to prove efficacious in destroy
ing at least q portion of the eggs de-
posted by the fly.
The mature grub may be squeezed
out by applying nut-key over the
tumor, then press and pop goes the

as soon as 1t has been removed else it

I0W-HEADED TREES.
why They Are Preferred by Modern
Fruit Growers Who Are OPP
p0se1 t. Pruming

For several reasons low-headed
fruit trees are to be preferred. They
resist wind better. the fruit is more
easily gathered and the bark insect.
which lays its eggs on tue bare trunk
to be Matched out by the warm sun
shine, is headed off. Then there is
less danger of sun scald. as the
branches spreading out. in measure
at least, shade the trunk.
By cutting out the top during the
early stages of growth in a ma iority
of cases low-spreading growth may
be readily secured.
Some OF our best growers are now
advocating no pruning. There is no
question but that in MANY cases much
harm is done to good tree by over
pruning, and on this account is a
choice between no pruning and the
serious injury resulting from over
pruning. No pruning is rather the
better plan. One advantage claimed
for not pruning is that there will be
no water sprouts. While pruning to
some extent seems necessary in order
10 get rld OF crossing or trailing
limb. yet care is necessary not to
prune too severely.
It is of course best to remove all
dead or diseased wood whenever no.
ticed, but with care taken to supply
conditions favorable to thrifty, Wig
orous growth, this can be reduced to
. minimum. Certain it is that no
limb or branch should be removed
without a good reason. Better not
prune than to cut unnecessarily. One
grower claims that all that is neces-
sary iwhen the desired height is Sc
rured is to pinch off the top bud of
the center stem of the tree and then
let further pruning alone
The only possible objection to a
low-headed tree is that after good
growth has been secured it is difficult
to cultivate close up under the tree,
but generally after tree has come
we'll into. bearing the better plan is
to seed down to clover. and it is only
IN exceptional cases that cultivation
will be necessarily. J. Shepherd, in

You want your horses not only in

them proper exercise during the fit-

THE II RISE STABLE.
How to Avoid 1.i. takes Calculated
to Cause Annoysncr aMd Loss
ef money.

A great many mistakes aresmade in
the construction Of farm stables. OF
course, no plane can be devised that will
suit everyone, because tastes, opinion
and ideas of beauty, utility and con-
venience differ materially. l believe
the time is not distant when all our
stable and thrcshing floors will be
made OF cement, yet q great many peo-
pie do not like them. Next to cement
l would use elm plank. There is no
other timber SO good for this purpose.
1t is easily procured, and cheap. There
are few farm forests that do not. have
elm. When sawed into plapks it is
tough and pliable, and when properly
taken care of is very durable. l find
it better than oak or other hard wood
lumber. 1t is easier on horses, feet.
and they will not slip on it SO easily as
on oak and other hard wood. Elm
