Good LAYERS,

Good layers are descendants of good
layers, and we should endeavor to de-
velop strains that have been bred from
such parents. If we closely observe n
flock of hens we will find that at all
seasons few will constantly lay, even
though most of them do not. Such
hens should be watched and carefully
marked, so that when the time comes
for Matching the eggs laid by then
may be used.
A careful selection of good layers
year after year will undoubtedly de-
velop an exceptionally heavy laying
breed, and IL followed up we may con.
fldently expect TO see the 200-egg hen
reality. Food and care have much
to do with the production of eggs, but
no amount of kindness will induce
poor layers to produce eggs. Develop
the laying strain. and then the work
and food will not be wasted ON them.

Value of superffuous knowledge.

Many people are satisfied to have
just and only just enough knowledge
to get along with. Not so with the
late Senator Cushman X. Davis, of
Minnesota, one of the most scholar
ly men this nation has produced. He
once said:
II believe in superfuous knowledge.
l have little faith I'm the thing called
genius. think any young man can
attain success, and great success, by
good, hard, studious labor, not inter-
mittent labor. but conscientious, con.
slant effort. The men who have
achieved success are the men who
have worked, read, thought more than
was absolutely necessary. who have
not been content with knowledge suf.
tlcient for the present need, but who
have sought additional knowledge and
stored it away for the emergency re.
serve. 1t Is the superhuous labor that
equips man for everything that
counts most In life."

About the possibility of getting n

way to prove 1t Is by trial. In all
probability water can be reached and
in abundance. Whether IL will be n
flowing well or require pumping will
depend upon the waiter being under
pressure or not. While flowing water
would be great advantage, the other
contingency ought not to be serious
discouragement, since pumping by
wind or other power can now be done
at moderate cost. If the wells of the

Cost of Producing Milk,

The great difference in cost OF milk
when made by good cows and by poor
ones is shown by the experiments of
the practical dairy operated at the
New Jersey experiment station. The
value of the yearly product of their
best COW at three cents per quart Is
S114.26, and of the poorest COW SG0.I4.
while the average product is worth
SS6.S9.
The cost of feed for the cows is es-
timated at practically the same. At
three cents per quart the returns of the
good cow over the cost of feed are
ST1.02. while for the poorest COW they
are $3.50. One year the herd aver
aged 65S5 pounds of milk per COW,
the milk testing four and one-quarter
per cent. Of butter fat. The average
yield of butter was 327 pounds PEE.

Standard Dairy Foods.

In the days Of our grandmothers the
standard cow foods were in the fields,
grass; in the stable, corn, corn shucks.
corn fodder and hay. Now and then
some cows got mess of shorts, few
turnips and the surplus of refuse
vegetables from the garden. Within
our generation wonderful change has
taken place. The dairy menu has
been enlarged many times. Now moth
Ing is too good Tor the milk cow. How
to feed her has come to be one of the
foremost questions of agricultural SCI
ence-a question more discussed in the
agricultural press and on the lecture
platform than any other.
The difference between the condi-
lions of the dairy then and now
amounts to a revolution. To-day the
dairyman has no need to go afleld In
search Of new foods for his cows. Ex-
perlments confirmed by practical ex-
perience have established long list Of
foods that have become standard,
from which he can make up balanced
ratiOns In great variety. For example.
take this list, which does not pretend
to be complete:
OF roughages: Well cured hays In
variety; silage of corn. corn and peas.
clover alfalfa; oats and clover. corn
stover, COW peas.
OF concentrates Bran. cornmeal.
ground oats, cottonseed meal, linseed
meal, gluten meal, brewers grains,
malt sprouts. pea meal.
These have all come to be standard
foods that can be bought in any OF the
