Weights For Barn Use.

Frequently the farmer wishes to
feed given weight Of this that OF the
other stuff and has no scales at hand
to weigh it. If he has a quart meas
ure handy, he can use it to measure
out the required weight. The quart
weight Of various feeds is as follows:
Cottonseed meal, 10 pounds; linseed
meal, old process, IL pounds; gluten
meal IL pounds; gluten feed, II
pounds; wheat bran, coarse, B pound;
wheat middlings, coarse, 8 pound, and
fine, IL pounds mixed wheat feed, 6
pound; cornmeal, 1.5 pounds; oats, IL
pounds; rye bran, 6 pound; H. o. dairy

BenSon's Plaster Is Pains Master

For coughs and colds Benson's Porous
Plasters are an incomparably better rem
edy than any other-external or internal.
Their medicinal properties enter the skin
and go straight to the seat Of the disease.
They relieve and cure "seated" cold
without disturbing the system Or upsetting
the stomach. Cough mixtures often nau-
seate. Benson's Plasters are medicinal in
the highest degree, and quickest to act.
Placed on the chest or back or on both
at once in serious cases, the good effect is
feltimmediately. The congestion yields, the
cough abates and the breathing improves.
Lung or bronchial affections or kidney
disease, are cured with the least possible
suffering and loss of time.
Benson's Plasters are UNNECESSARILY su-
perior to Belladonna, Strengthening, Cap
sicum or any other combination in plaster
form. They are also preferable to ONT
ments, liniments and salves.
Benson's Plasters have received Jfty:1SUe
highest Go00rds over all competitors; and
more than 5000 physicians and druggists
have declared them to be one of the few
trustworthy household remedies. For sale
by all druggists, or we will prepay postage
on any number ordered in the United
States on receipt of Csc. each.
Be sure you get the genuine. Accept no
imitation or substitute.

feet six inches from the ditch to the
front end of five foot post.
The slanting manger is three feet
from the floor of the feed alley and
leaves an opening at the top of eight
cen inches, where all feed is placed in
the feed trough, there being sufficient
room at A (say six inches) for grain,
ensilage or cut fodder to pass down,
but hay, whole fodder or straw will not
pass down, but will remain so that the
COW can eat them through the bars CAY.
The partitions between the cows are
three feet six inches apart, four feet
high and three feet six inches long.
There are no partitions in front of the
bars (A) except twelve inches above
the bottom of the feed box, SO that the
cut feed and grain ratiOns remain in it's
own cows manger. But the whole
length of the hay manger is clear from
end to end, and, if wanted, any long
fodder can be distributed in it in good
shape The platform should drop from

speaking of insurance Matters"
said listener, II suppose the plain,
old fashioned nail has caused more
fires in the big Establishments where
machinery is used in many and COM
plicated ways than any other little
thing in existence. The only thing
needed is for it to come in contact with
some other hard material with sufh-
cient force to cause a spark and heat
generation. Nails have really produced
a heavy per cent of the cotton fires Of
the country. During recent years, on
account of steps taken by the owners
and conductors of the larger cotton and
byproduct plants at the instance Of in
surance men, the nail has not been
such prolific producer of fires.
"a way has been found, for instance,
in cotton gins, cotton mills and In
plants where cottonseed are put
through manufacturing processes, Of
extracting nails and other Weighty and
f1inty substances that may find lodg-
ment In these inf1ammable products.
Gravity is the natural force used. Nails
and rocks and materials of this kind
are heavier than cotton and its by
products, and they have a tendency to
force their way to the bottom of the
heap. By allowing these products to
pass over a rolling belt arrangement
these heavier materials filter toward
the bottom and are finally extracted
so that when the cotton or the cotton
seed passes through the grind in the
various manufacturing processes there
is but little danger from fire so far as
these things are concerned" Or

Feeding Value Of Apples.

The experience of careful farmers in
dicates that apples are worth more for
feeding than the usual cider mill price,
says Farm and Home. A Massachu-
sets dairyman who had lot of low
grade apples began on a large, old
aw, which was nearly dry, feeding her
n connection with her summer pasture
exclusively two quarts of hard Green
ings and Baldwins at night and the
same quantity in the morning, grad
ually increasing until at the end Of a
week she was eating about one bushel
per day. Her milk increased from
four to six quarts per day. Where
there are short pastures and the neces-
sity of living COWS some extra food in
ferior grade apples may be turned to
profitable account.

No progressive dairyman, breeder or
experiment station advises feeding corn
meal to dairy calves, as it has just the
opposite tendency to that at which we
are aiming, says E. V. Sharpless in Ma
tional Stockman. Wheat middlings and
oil meal are perhaps the most satisfac-
tory feed we can obtain. Cooking or
heating food for young stock helps
growth, because warmth seems to be
conducive to life and cold to be an at
tribute of death. Especially the liquid
food should be fed warm, and the fod-
der should become warm by being mas
ticated in the mouth before entering
the stomach. With this treatment and
food the heifer should be a profitable
investment at the age Of twenty-one or
twenty-five months.

Washing and Working Butter.

After drawing off the buttermilk
wash twice or until the wash water
runs off clear Then work in salt to suit
the taste Of your trade and set away
for three Or four hours, then rework
and pack or stamp. The interval be-
tween sailing and stamping allows
the salt thoroughly to permeate the
whole mass, and the second working
also insures a uniform mixing of the
salt as we'll as working out any excess
of water. Never work butter when it is
warm enough to be salvy. There are
two watchwords for the butter maker.
They are cleanliness and uniformity
and are worth remembering if you are
looking for trade and reputation.

Good Milk Strainers.

A good milk strainer is made from
brass wire cloth of not less than fifty
meshes to the inch and three or four
thicknesses of loosely woven cotton or
wooden cloth that has been previously
washed to remove size. Such a strainer
will not only remove fine particles Of
dirt, but will also entangle cOnsidera-
BILE number of germs. Such strainers
should be cleaned with great care and
frequently renewed.

HOW Much Dutter4

One hundred pounds Of milk testing
5 per cent of butter fat would, Of
course, contain just five pounds of fat.
Good butter contains only so per cent
fat, the balance being moisture, some
casein, ETC. One hundred pounds Of 5
per cent milk will therefore make more
than five pounds of butter. The rule
established in the Worlds fair dairy
test was to add to the butter fat one
fifth of itself. Then by this rule we
would get six pounds of butter from
100 pounds Of per cent milk. This,
however, necessitates very close work
both in skimming and churning.-Col-

The Schmidt treatment for milk fe-
yer in cattle has resulted in a remark
able number Of recoveries, reports from
DR.. Schmidt of Denmark assumes the
disease to be due to the elaboration of
a toxin in the udder. The treatment is
simple, within the reach of all dairy
men, says Professor Buckley of the
Maryland experiment station.
Dissolve 120 grains iodide of potash
in one quart of water which has been
boiled and allowed to cool to about the
temperature of the body. Introduce a
funnel and pipette into the ends of a
rubber tube and place in bucket of
antiseptic fluid. Milk the udder dry,
then place under the cow piece of oil
cloth about q yard square, so that the
udder will be about the middle of the
cloth.
Wash the udder and teats thoroughly
with CASTLE soap and warm water, rims
ing carefully with antiseptic fluid. In.
sert the pipette into the end of tea!
and fill the funnel with iOdide of pot
ash solution. By passing successfully
from one teat to another distribute the
solution equally among the quarters OF
the udder. Rub the udder from the
teat toward the body, and massage
thoroughly in order to distribute the
solution throughout. Eight or ten hours
after the injection, or when recovery is
assured, the udder should be carefully
MIXED out and then bathed with warm
water about 100 degrees f. A second
injection is rarely necessary, but II SO
it should be done at the end Of six or
eight hours.
If there should be a tendency toward
hardness of the udder or ''stringiness"
Of the milk, baths Of warm water
should be applied every three or four
hours until relieved. If neglected, gar
get will result. AS preventive meas
ure it is advisable to restrict robust an
imals to a moderate allowance OF dry
food for seven to ten days previous to
the end of their term, and where there
is a tendency toward costiveness or
consultation correct it with drench OF
epson salts.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to it's normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever,
nine cases out of ten are caused by ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an inhamed
condition of tie mucous surfaces.

ERA YNKS -

Frequently inquiry is made by farm
ers and dairymen as to the best feeds
and combinations, particularly for
dairy animals. While there is no such
thing as a best feed or ration, there
are some that are more desirable and
more economical than others. Most OF
the home grown coarse feeds are high
in carbohydrates, low in protein and
comparatively indigestible. Nearly all
of the concentrated feeds are very
digestible, and a large number are
high in protein and low to medium in
carbohydrates. The concentrated feeds
are fed with the home grown coarse
feeds, therefore, first, to increase the
digestible matter, and, second, to in
daily ration.
Among the most economical concen-
trated feeds high in protein may be
mentioned cottonseed meal, corn gluten
meal, gluten feed, dried brewers
grains, malt sprouts and fine flour mid
dlings, with IS to 20 per cent protein.
Wheat bran and mixed feed contain
only Is per cent digestible protein
and 35 to 40 per cent indigestible mat
ter. The long distance transportation
of substances containing such large
amount Of inert material is an impor-
tant factor in making the nutrients
they contain relatively expensive.
Linseed meal, while desirable milk
producing feed, is not usually as cheap
as cottonseed or gluten. 1t is not
usually economical for the average
farmer to purchase cOrnmeal. This
should be produced upon the farm.
The oat feeds are also relatively ex-
pensive.
Pea Vine Si1age Ration.
According to figures from the Massa-
chusetts experiment station, pea vine
silage contains approximately 80 per
cent Of dry matter and digestible nu-
trients, as follows: Protein, 3.4 per
cent: carbohydrates. 22.5 per cent, and
fat, l per cent This indicates that it
would not require additional foodstuffs
rich in protein, says Hoard's Dairy
man. The following combination
should make a very acceptable ration
as an average for a herd Of cows:
Twenty pounds Of pea vine silage, ten
pounds Of corn slower, four pounds of
bran and four pounds of corn.
Fodder Corn and Bran.
Fodder corn is very good in its way,
we might say excellent, but alone it
does not furnish the very best Of
roughage for milk cows, says Hoard's
! Dairyman. However, If limited tc
| bran and fodder corn we should expect
| to feed at an average not less than
twelve pounds of bran per day and
| then all the fodder corn each COW will
| eat without waste.
