Value of Corn Turned Into Pork.

Following are some recent tests of
hog feeding in Ohio:
On December 18th a bunch of hogs
were weighed, and they were again
weighed on December 20 and %. Tn
gain for the corn fed during the first
period was an average of 14.S'pounds in
weight per bushel of corn, and for the
second period gain of 154 pounds per
bushel. In the first instance, calculat-
ing hogs at 81 60, the feeding value of
the corn was 6Sa cents per bushel, and
in the second instance at 81 65 for hogs,
the result represented 709 cents for
corn. The market value of corn at the
same time was % cents per bushel.
This is an interesting illustration of the
profit that may be realized by convert
ing grain into fat animals.

AGRICULTURAL.
Good News for Wheat Growers.

The Cornell experiment station in
this State, after number of expert
ments in which both the station work
ers and the practical farmers of the
State were interested, has come to the
conclusion that the variety of wheat
known as Dawson's Golden Chaff, is
practically proof against the Hessian
fly, which is a matter which should be |
made known to all those who grow
wheat.
In the Summer and the Fall of 1900,
the station made arrangements with a
number of farmers to test the varieties
of wheat sent by the station on their
farms. Owing to the prevalence of the
Hessian fly, the success or failure of the
varieties has depended on their ability
to resist it. On Mr.. Jacks farm at Ba-
tavia, Dawson had the worst chance
but stood up we'll with hardly any fly,
and was estimated at twenty bushels
per acre, which was as much as expect
ed from the soil. Other varieties were
nearly total failures. Mr.. Weber, of
Stafford, estimated his crop of Dawson
at thirty bushels per acre, while No. 6
was one-half down or more. Mr.. Stud
dert, of Stafford, had no fly in Dawson
wheat, while other varieties were de-
stroyed. The other farmers making
the test had similar experience and
the Dawson seemed perfectly resistant
to the fly. No case has been reported
in which the Dawson Golden Chat
wheat was seriously injured by the fly
Chas. A. Green, of Rochester, fur
. nishes statement in regard to a fnt
field of wheat seen on the grounds o
Ellwanger & Barry, that was estimated
. at thirty-five to forty bushels per acre
and on telephoning the firm he was il
formed that it was Dawson Colder
Chaff wheat. On the other hand, from
, Canada it was reported that Dawson
! wheat suffered from the fly, and tn,
only kind that escapes there is the Rel

To Keep Cows Constantly at It.

Here is way in which several dairy
men keep busy the year round, which
may be accomplished in even cheese
making sections by connecting cream
cry plant to the cheese plant: Have a
few of your best cows together with the
heifers come in in the Fall, feed we'll
and house properly, and feed calves
with warm skim milk brought back
from the creamery. 1t is essential that
heifers come in in the Fall, as with
good care they will milk very well dur.
ing the Winter, and when turned on
grass in the Spring they will respond
freely for four or five months longer,
thus encouraging the habit of milking
ten months in the year. Only by such
a system can the dairyman derive the
greatest profit from his herd.-N. Y
Witness.
The Bellefontaine Republican. [volume] (Bellefontaine, Logan County, Ohio) 1855-1905, 1901-10-08

Keep the little chicks out of the wet
grass during the early morning.
You must supply the hens with plenty
of green food if you expect them to
lay.
Four or five applications of kerosene
ought to cure any case, no matter how
bad, of scaly leg on poultry.
1t is believed that during this past
season the Hessian fly caused the loss
OF about S3,00O,0 900 worth of wheat in
New York State alone.
The eve that has outdoor exercise
every day is more likely to produce &C
tive and vigorous lambs that will take
care of themselves shortly after their
arrival.
Milk at the same time every day
Milk thoroughly to the last drop, be-
cause the milk is the best. Always
, keep the hands clean, and also the
cows udder and the dairy utensils.

Joke On the Judge.

Judge William Yost, of Greenville,
KY, who is a candidate for the Ken
lucky Court of Appeals, is one of the
biggest men in the State, physically, at
least, for he stands six feet five inches
in his stockings, and has a pair of
shoulders like those of a professional
prize fighter. The judge is great
Joker, and when in this city recently a
bootblack called out, "Shine, sir" the
Judge looked at him vacantly, pre-.
tending to be deaf and dumb. After
several minutes of sign language he
understood. He leaned against build.
ing and the boy went to work. Another
bootblack appeared, and the one al
work said:
"Youse needn't stop dis is all mine. ,
''Sh-h! He'll hear yer" whispered the
other.
'I'm gettin' five shoe for des'
scows," was the others reply in a lout
voice. The second boy looked so as
tonished at his friends boldness tina
the latter laughed and said:
"Say, yer chump, he's deaf and dumb
See?"
The other boy, who had been lookini
with all his eyes at the gaint, blurte'
out in loud tone of admiration: "Say
he's big, ugly-lookin' divil, amt he?'
| This was too much for the Judge, ant
he broke into laugh. The boys look
ed for an instant at him, and thon fle
down the street, leaving the judge wit
but one shoe polished, to look for anoth
er bootblack to make equally presenta
