Preparing for DrOuth.

l will give you an instance of two
dairymen in my neighborhood. One
is about the best and the other is not
the worst, but among the poorest.
They have each one hundred acres.
Last season was very dry, the dryest L
have ever come through. We had not
good soaking rain from the time the
snow went off till October. This good
dairymsn had fourteen cows, to which
he attended thoroughly. He had about
an acre of oats and peas, and put in
two and one-half acres of corn early,
and he fed his COWS right through the
season. Both these farmers sent to
the factory for seven months an aver
age OF 6,007 pounds from each of the
fourteen cows in the herd. The other
dairyman, who did not prepare any
thing, received an average Of 2,032
pounds each. Then when it came to
money the man with the 6,007 pounds
got $40 per cow, the other man got S18
per COW. The poor dairyman's COWS
averaged $3.50 month, and the other
mans 81 month. Now the fault was
at home. One man prepared against
the drouth in case it needed it, and the
other man prepared nothing. He had
hoped it would be wet year, and there
would be plenty of grass, but if it was
dry year he expected to have no
money. He received about 1852 for
these nine cows, and the other man
received SAL, making difference OF
$3.50 to the man for his foresighted-
ness. G. Bright, before the Ontar-
10 Dairy Convention.

with steamer yellow at 52i to $50 as to quail

OATs.-The market has ruled quiet but
prices have hardened somewhat during the
past week. At the close fancy clipped

Farm SeparatOrs.

The manager of one Of the best
whole milk creameries in one of the
best creamery districts Of Iowa says
that for three months his creamery ac-
cepted milk from patrons 80 far remov-
ed that it was necessary to shut down
the separator and start up again when
the milk came, and that there was re-
sultant loss OF 600 pounds Of butter dur
ing that period, which he ascribes to
stopping and starting the separator.
He says it was found to be impossible
to skim as clean after the separator
had been stopped as before. From this
he argues as follows: Suppose cream
cry has,, 100 patrons and they all use
farm separators. This makes 100 sep
arste starts and stops, and the loss will
perhaps more than overbalance any
claimedsgainIfrom the use of farm sep
arators.
Now,Ithis is an entirely new thing,
says the, Creamery Journal. Take it at
this timeIof the year, when the factory
separates but once in two days. The
100 patronsIseparating once a day have
200 stops to the factory separator'e one,
and il asa rule they separate twice a
day, they have. 400 of these losses to the
one fromIthe factory separator, if there
| be q lose.
But this one statement, though from
an excellent manager and close obser-
yer, does not prove his side. 1t only
opens it up for investigation.
The factory separator gets heavily
coated with slime, and perhaps this is
the reason why it makes waste in start
ing and stopping. In fact, as all boys
know, it is sometimes absolutely neces-
sary to shut down and clean out the
bowl to prevent waste of butter fat. II
the creamery man in this case shut
down aud then started up his clogged
bowl without first cleaning, that would
cause loss, but it doesn't apply to the
farm separator, which never gets in q
fix, because the milk is always fresh
and sweet. And there is much more
to this. The farm separator has less
exacting task, for the milk is in the
best condition-no stale, fibrinous milk
to make trouble.

Dressing Butter.

An expert Texas butter maker tells
in Fan M and Ranch how he holds the
price on his butter. He says:
Working butter is an art not well
understood by the many. Butter
should be worked to get the milk and
water out and to get the salt in and
properly distributed. When these OBJ
iects have been secured the working
should cease. The working should
always be by pressure and never by
rubbing or scraping.
Print butter with the name of the
maker or some trademark on it and
wrap it up in parchment paper. We
use "brick molds" with our name cut
in them, and every pound we send out
is an advertisement for the retailer TO
whom we sell.
Country butter, good, bad and in
different, is only ''country butter" and
is at a discount in all our markets.
There must be some distinguishing
mark about butter to distinguish it
from Country butter" Thousands of
pounds of Country butter" are bought
up by our country merchants. 1t is
never offered to their customers at
home, but shipped to the "process but
ter" factories to be converted into
creamery (?) butter. Our first ship
ment of pure, rich Jersey butter to
Galveston, dressed in country style,
netted US about 4 cents. When we
next sent, we dressed it in city style,

Farm Wells.

The location of the well on the farm
is OF the greatest Importance. In many
instances the farmer starts his well
near the buildings and yards, and Sc
lects the lowest point as location,
with the idea that he will not have to
dig as deep as he would upon higher
land. This is often a mistake, as we
know of several places in village
where the wells near the top of the hill
are not as deep and are not as much
affected by drouth as those on the
lower land at the foot of the hill,
though there may be fifty or hun
dred feet difference in the elevation.
But the chief objection to the we'll on
the low ground is that it receives the
surface drainage from the higher land,
and thus the water soon becomes 80
contaminated as to be unfit for use,
either by the family or the animals, for
to be healthy they must have pure
water. In these days of driven wells
pipe can often be sunk on the highest
gravel knoll or sand hill on the farm
more cheaply than in the low land, and
when water is reached it is pure and
will continue so, because the surface
water runs away from it and not toward
it.
If windmill is erected the wind
power is better, and by tank and pipes
water can be brought to house, barn
and yards, or carried to irrigate the
garden and strawberry bed in way to
make it doubly pay for itself, first in
saving of daily hard labor at the pump
and next in increased crops by having
water supply when needed. We
heard market gardener near Boston
say, few years ago, that he put down
driven wells, bought steam engine
and pump, built a tank and laid pipes,
and the increased value of his crops
paid the whole expense the first year,
including cost of running the engine.
Farmers in the Eastern States cannot
get the United States Government to
build reservoirs and irrigating plants
for them, as Western farmers are try
ing to do, and it may be q good thing TO
investigate the irrigation problem
when deciding on new wells, but
water for family use is all import
ant. Many man who thought he
could not afford to put in new well
has paid out more cash for DOCTORS
and undertaker's bills than the well
would have cost.-American Cultivator.

Success With a Few Chickens.

About the middle of November last l
constructed email henhouse and se-
cured for it ten Plymouth Rock pullets
and cock. They were not more than
one-fourth grown. AT the close of the
year they began laying. After January
20 1 kept daily count, and during the
week ending January 26 they laid 81
eggs; the week ending February 2, So;
the week ending February 8, 81, and
the week ending February Is, 81 eggs,
the sum for the four weeks, 211, or q
little over on an average each day.
For the last three weeks the average
was over s eggs each day. During the
four weeks one of the pullets lost one
fourth of her time by her persistence
in sitting. feed them all the corn
they will eat, with wheat screenings,
boiled potatoes, unstable cabbage, cut
fine; crushed bones, potatoes and cab
bage served warm. They have a
small box of sand and fine gravel
and box of old plastering. The
hen house is 8 by IA, with
walls of eight feet of ship clapboards, a
comb roof, one-third pitch. A roosting
pole runs lengthwise the building
within fifteen inches under the comb
of the roof; ten inches under the
roosting pole there is floor of loose
boards to receive the droppings. They
are loose 80 that they can be taken up
and cleaned at least once week. The
west half of the south wall is of sash
glass coming within eighteen inches of
the ground, the glass protected with
chicken wire. The ground inside OF
the glass, 4 by 6 feet, is reserved for a
scratch patch, with chatf, hayseed and
short straw and hay on which is sown
the grain. Then, in the southeast cor
ner, they have box of fine pulverized
soil and dust intermingled with a
small amount of Stacked lime. They
have 5 nest boxes, the entrances some
what hidden from view, but on the
back there is a slide to get the eggs
without disturbing the hen on duty.
Each nest has glass egg.-John Mey-

AGRICULTURAL.
Growing Hubbard Squash.

In determining an average yield,suit-
able and careful preparation of land ,
proper fertilization, favorable seasons,
an absence Of insect and fungous die
eases are the factors involved; and, one
or N ore Of these being usually advert o
to the grower, The average yield does not
turn out to be as supposed from the
large individual crops one occasionally
hears Of. Some competent growers
asselt that seven to eight tons per acre
would be fair average, but five TO six
tens OF marketable Hubbards yearly
need not complain. Last season, prices
per ton in carloads varied from $40 to
Bis, with far more sales at former than
at latter figures. During the past win
ter, Hubbard squashes retailed in
Rochester for some time at 6 cent a
pound. Hubbard squashes are grown
in variety of soils with more or less
success, but seem to have preference
for sandy enc. A clay loan, if not
too heavy texture, and ii well fitted
and fertilized should give good results.
If the land is in good state of cultivs-
ton, commercial fertilizers can be
profitably employed. The writer has
personal knowledge of two crops grown
in 1899 and 1900 (years in both OF
which the summers were remarkably
dry) when the use of the following mix
ture of commercial fertilizers was
highly successful. Nothing was ap-
piled at the time of planting, but after
the plants were well up there was
scattered around each hill, in circle
about four feet in diameter, pound of
mixture of equal parts of nitrate of So
da and superphosphate. This was then
we'll worked into the soil with steel
rakes. The hills were planted s by s
feet, ESQ 10 the acre, requiring nearly
700 pounds of the mixture. One crop
yielded IL tons to the acre, the other a
little over 10, though the latter was the
better one in evenness of size and quail
ity. The land was lay lcam.-Country

Profit in Some Calves.

Many farmers with two or three cows
that drop their calves at different peri
DDS find 1t profitable to allow them 10
run with the COWS for three or four
weeks. They can be sold to the local
butcher at from four to six cents a
pound liveweight. As they usually
weigh from 1875 to over $50 pounds
each, it makes sum greater than
could be obtained from butter made
from the COWS during the same period.
Cows liable to inaamed udder are
not troubled if the calf is allowed to
run with them continually. Feeding
several times day, the calf does not
allow the udder to become full. With
Jerseys or other small breeds the profit
is not 80 great, as the live weight at
selling time is nearly fifty pounds less
than Durham or Holstein at the same
age. 1t is almost as much trouble to
attend to the milk from one COW as
from two or three. 1t takes just as
long to do the churning and care for
the butter, hence by the vealing plan
this matter can, in measure, be regu-
lated if the herd consists of several
cows.-(John G. Wickham, in Ameri-
can Agricultural.
