Notes by Hun Jersey.


Last week we attended a Farmers
Institute in McDonohue county. Hold
ing meeting at this time of the year
was an experiment with these people.
The meeting was a good one and the
program All interesting one. Beet Gull
ture, small fruits, ensilage,. the or
chard and hog breeding were some OF
the papers read. En- route we saw
evidences Of the very dry weather in
clover, oats and hay crops, timothy
heading out six and eight inches high
and oats turning brown. 1t stands
farmers in hand to study the best
methods for securing their corn crops
TO make the best and largest amount
OF food when their hay lands are so
Improbable. At Cedar Hill Farm we
have put the plow in all of our sod
land and feel we are doing the right
thing in so doing. Peas and oats, oats,
flax and millet, soy beans, southern
peas, all turn Off more feed per acre
than our clover or timothy meadows,
and all of above crops are rich in
protein and also assist in keeping
UP fertility of the soil.
Last week we put our COWS On grass
and did so without having any of the
hrst grass effects-soft butter or COWS
losing in milk dow. We began ny
turning them out late in the morning
after receiving their cnsilage and
grain feed and returning them to sta
bic early in afternoon, whore they
again Go5 ensilage and grain. After
following this up for few days they
were finally allowed to return to pas
ture after evening milking, staying
there till morning, receiving only
grain in stable night and morning.
We will continue this plan till cur
daily milk record shows US that the
grass is getting short, when we Will
open our summer silo of corn and
feed twice uay in stable.
The individual milk record of herd
shows us some things but little
thought OF by the average dairyman.
Take my trip 10 the Institute spoken
of at beginning of this article as an
example. | missed only one milking,
that of evening. Ny string of COWS
number ten. My boys MIXED their
cows at the usual hour and then
MIXED mine, which was about forty
five minutes later than was their habit
Of being MIXED by me. The late hour
saved my ten from shrinking THAT
night. but the next morning they
shYank from one to three pounds each,
and again at night lost. My boys
COWS also lost from the fact that they
were hurrlcdly MIXED the evening |
was away. 1t took from Thursday
morning to Friday evening to get the
herd back TO their normal work, just
from one set OF COWS being changed
from their habitual way. The milk
sheet shows in pounds and ounces
gains and losses right through the year
that without the record we would not
notice, and but few OF these changes
come but that We can trace the cause.

Symptoms.-Thisd isea~c first shows
itself upon the comb, wattl,9 and neck,
frequently on one side of the head
only. 1t appears as small white, yell
lowlsh raised spots circular or irreg-
ular in outline. These spots at first
distinct grow and coalesce, until the
skin is covered with a greyish yellow
crust that may become one-fourth of
an inch in thickness. In about month
the feathers become affected and
eventually fall off, leaving the skin
bare and covered with numerous
crusts, each depressed in the center
where n feather was attached.
The effects of favus are wasting and
facilitating. Often death may follow.
The disease Is Causeu by a lowly or
ganized fungus Achorion Schonleinii,
found within the crusts.
Treatment.--The disease is contagl-
Gus, hence diseased fowls should be iso-
lated. The complaint yields readily to
treatment, especially when confined to
parts of the head destitute OF feathers.
rhe affected areas should be bathed in
warm water and as much of the crust
as possible removed with a blunt in
strument. as the handle of a spoon.
Then apply daily an ointment COM
posed of benzine one part. soft soap -
parts and flowers OF sulphur to the
proper consistency. Another good
ointment is red oxide of mercury /
part and vaseline parts.

Once upon . time-to be more pre-

century-there lived a worthy Connec-
ticut divine named Rev. Samuel Peters,
says B. ]. Hendrick, in Leslie's Month
ly. Peters was picturesque person

tirely upon the fact that he wrote .
book. This Is one of the most marvel

first discovered, and made known to
the world. that the founder Of Yale
college was Rev. Thomas Peters. evi-

also from Mr.. Peters that we frst
learn of the famous incurSion of the
Windham frogs. But it was in the
early Jurisprudence OF Connecticut
that this expatriate made his most in

his English readers-and most of them
believe the story devoutly to this day
that the citizens of the state were
forbidden by law to make mince pies,
to play on any instrument of music ex-

II was plainly apparent that this

she had aged fully dozen years.

It was singular that despite Mrs.
Gerson's dislike for DR.. Adams her
daughter should be practically fond
Of her. Miss Gerson spent much Of
her time in the doctors Office as she
could spare from her mothers store.
DR.. Adams reciprocated this affection.

The proverbial hospitality OF min

went to see her from the marshal to
