We lave uO trOuDle IN milking them.
You can't get all the milk out of
COW If you whack her with the milk
stool once in a while. In the second
place we feed each COW according to
the work she is doing. These years
of experimenting have enabled US to
determine an accurate rule for feeding
grain. Feed three parts of corn to
five of ground oats or bran. OF this
mixture give one pound for each three
pounds of milk yielded by the COW.
Feed half the grain in the morning
and the other half in the evening.
Give meal of rough fodder at noon.
Don't give more hay or other bulky
food than the COW can eat, for it will
get musty in the manger and the COW
will lose her appetite. This grain RAJ
ton of course is for winter use. You
should have your COWS come in in the
fall. Then by using the ration given
you will get good flow of milk all
winter, when prices are high for but
ter, and when the COW gets on the green
grass they will give an increased flow
during May and June. When tho
busiest season comes your COWS will
be ready to dry up. -
Experience has proven that if the
given ratio of grain feed is exceeded
the COW will begin to fatten up and the
low OF milk will decrease. If COWS
are led right there is no reason whvs
they should not hold their own "a
mixers Tor many years. We have
some that have been milking for fifteen
years and are still good for many
years. s. .2,is-..s. = ~

What course they will finally
decide to pursue is purely matter
Of conjecture, as they have refused
to give the slightest intimation OF
what sranspired at their meeting.
Much depends on the commit
tees coming conference with the
Dawes Commission, as their report
will decide the action of the NAL
contents. II is certain, however,
that they will only register under
protest. as they express il, "We
will not consent to our own fu-

DRESSING sHEEPsK1Ns,
Not q very Intricate Operation If Ex-
ecuted According to the Direc-
tiOns Given Herewith,

10 tan sheep hides with the wool on
and to dye wool on the same, spread
skin, flesh side up, when taken off.
Sprinkle pulverized alum over it, fol-
lowed by little saltpeter and plenty
OF common salt. Roll up and put where.
1t Will not freeze. Two ounces each of
alum and salt will tan a sheep or other
similar sized skin. When the skin is
tanned the flesh on it willrub off easily.
Then nail the skin to boards in the
sun, stretching it tight, and apply lit
tie neatsfoot oil, which should AFTER
ward be worked out with a wedge
shaped piece of wood. The skin is then
wet until soft and then worked until
dry. 1t it is not worked and rubbed it
will dry harsh and stiff. For sheep and
lamb skins strong suds is usually first
made with hot water, in which the
SKINS are washed carefully, squeezing
them between the hands to get the dirt
out OF the wool. The skin is then
washed in clear water, and alum and
salt, half pound each are dissolved
IN little hot water, which is put into
enough cold water in tub to cover two
skins. Let soak over night and then
hang on pole to drain. When we'll
drained, spread, stretch and tack the IN
to board, flesh side up. While yet a
little damp put on the pulverized salt
peter and alum, rub it in we'll, then Law
the flesh sides of two skins toge Their
and hang them in the shade two or
three days, turning the under skin up
Permost every day until perfectly dry.
Then scrape the flesh side with dull
knife to remove the remaining scraps
OF flesh and rub the flesh side with
Pumice stone and afterward with the
hands, until soft and pliable. For dye
ing buy the analine dyes, of the colors
wanted, and get directions with them.

SHEEP ON THE FARM.
Ihey Are of 1nestimable Value Be-
cause of Their FOndness for
Young Sprouts and Weeds

The sheep is among the most use.
full and valuable. of domestic animals,
being a producer of wool used for
clothing and other purposes, and of
wholesome meat. But the sheep also
is of large value on the farm because
of his fondness for young sprouts and
weeds.
According to an authority there are
nearly 600 varieties of known weeds,
of which sheep will ca SIS kinds, while
horses, cattle and hogs will eat but q
few varieties. 1t is apparent that
every farmer could we'll afford to raise
a few sheep if for no purpose other
than the destruction of weeds.
Weeds increase in numbers and va
rieties as the country grows older.
They are found most abundantly in
the old countries of Europe. Their
steady increase in this country de-
mands that farmers should raise sheep
as among other means looking to
their determination.
BY all means get two or three ewes
already bred and give them the run
of that foul pasture. Increase the
flock by breeding and purchase if adj
visable, until the number is sufficient
to keep down the weeds on given
area.
No farm is properly equipped with
out sheep.-Farmers' Voice.

HARRY AND HIS TEAM.

calves. Yes, it did, but then boys
have lots of odd hours, and Harry
used his in training his calves, be-
sides forming the habit of industry.
The managers of the fair invited
Harry to bring his trained calves to
the fair and go in the procession in
the ring, and gave him premium for
doing SO. That was why he was feel
ing SO gay and proud coming home
that evening from the county fair.
His little yoke of steers, one year
old, had Won prize all through his
own efforts.
One day Harry's father wanted
some bran from the feed store, two
miles away, and Harry said he could
go after it with his wagon and calves.
There was big hill to come up on
the road home, and Harry's father
thought that they could not haul
more than 200 or 800 pounds, but Mr..
Stebbins was surprised to see them
bring home 700 pounds. Some time
before Christmas Harry sold his
calves for $45 to man in the neigh.
borhood who wanted young yoke
of oxen for his farm. He is break.
ing another pair, getting them ready
for work on the farm. Apparently
this boy is cultivating love for farm
industries that will make the right
sort of a farmer.-George E. Scott,

COUNTRY HOME COMFORTS.
How to Obtain Some Very Pretty
House and Piazza Effects ut a
Nominal Expense.

I In Furnishing q home variety Of
pretty effects can be gained by small
seats which hug the corners CLOSELY.
Among the latest are those with a
single ornamental end of fine etched
wood cut out in appropriate shape.
The couch is low, well cushioned
and equipped with some three or four
pillows OF any spring-ike material
which matches the seat, while the I'M
ornamented end is finished simply
with frill that falls from the cush-
ion to the floor, the entire length Of
the seat.
This one tall end may be an at
tractive feature of those skilled
in Typography, but to be at it's best
1t should be made of holly or bass
wood, cut in sections, and then joinaA
to prevent warping. If desired, on
the inside of this end there can be
shelf for books and the like. The
design may be outlined and then
burnt in. It may have a floral dec
Grafton, . pastoral scene or an en-
bellishment of cupids and blossoms,
taking care according to the rules Of
this art that if the background is
dark the design should be light, or
reverse the picture leaving the
ground work light.
AS for coverings there are charm
ing stuffs in cotton tapestries, liberty
cretonnes, sateen quill and the pretty
Normandy dimities. Any of these look
we'll, as their flower effects ara oav
and brilliant, while the cushions may
be made of Priscilla silk in any of
the solid and delicate tints preferred.
Among the striking novelties for
country homes is the Darby and Joan
chair, low rocker for two, on the
one foundation. The wood of heavy
make is painted in a good tone of
forest green, the rush seats in bril-
liant tints of red. These odd pieces
are severe in form without ornamen-
tation of any kind. They are in diff
