Pure Water W cer..ta,k Disses>
From Farmers Review: More cat
tie have died of the so-called corn
stalk disease" than usual in this part
Ct the country. 1t seems to be a great
mystery to those who try to explain
the cause, as well as to the farmers
noticed in our local paper what was
reported to be the opinion Of the KS
sistant state veterinarian in regard to
the cause of this disease. He said: 1t
was caused by bacteria on the leaves
OF the cornstalks; that they could not
De seen but they were surely there.
tStrange If they were surely there they
could not be seen-) Now we all know
that this is great day and age OF
bacteria According to the bacteriol-
og1st a man can't eat anything. can't
drink anything, can't kiss his wife or
baby, can't take hold of the door knob
OF a car, can't take hold of a strap in
street car. without coming in contact
with microbes, and for all this Their,
are men as strong now as there ever
were; they tell us, too, that just as
soon as our poor cattle and horses are
put In a field of cornstalks they are
at the mercy of the microbes. This
theory of the bacteriologist is all
wrong in regard to this trouble with
cattle. 1 will tell you something 1
found out not by hearsay but by ex-
per1ence and that is. cattle win drink
more water in dry fall and winter
weather when fed on dry stalks than
they will when running on green grass
In summer time. Some farmers have
lost cattle that were running on fall
pasture OF this "cornstalk disease
when they had no cornstalks to eat at
all. Have a good tank heater in the
winter time so the old cows and steers
can walk right up and take all the way
from 80 to so right good ox-swallows
without stopping and then take little
more after short breathing spell.
This. with plenty of salt, and they will
resist the attack of the microbes.
When this whole matter of corn
stalk disease" Is understood, when 1t
is all stewed down and sugared on it
will be found to be a lack Of plenty
CT pure water and salt that causes the
trouble.-Henry Turner Putnam

Using the Hand Separator.

Prof. H. H. Dean: A great many
who use hand separators take the
warm cream from the separator and
put it in with the cream that has been
skinned in the morning or the pre-
vious day. That practice will result
in a poor quality of butter every time.
Cream from the separator should al
ways be cooled at once to a tempera-
ture of go degrees. or lower, otherwise
it will be worse for ALTERNATING than
that obtained in the old way without
separators Neglecting to wash the
machine properly, and neglecting to
cool the cream properly, are the two
great evils to guard against in the
use of the hand separator. II these two
points are carefully observed, we shall
have a better quality of cream, but not
Otherwise.

sheep Sc. b In Indiana.

Among the acts of the last session
of the Indiana legislature was one
making it compulsory to dip all scabby
sheep. The object is to stamp out
this expensive but unnecessary disease.
The reports of the state statsttcian
for the past few years have shown that
there has been a considerable num-
her of sheep affected. The forthcom-
ing report will show more than 5000
head reported to be affected foA <he
wear ending June 80. There is NO
question but there have been many er.
rors in reporting, but deducting these
there still remains a large number of
affected sheep.-Prof. c. S. Plumb,

From Farmers Review: 1 can say
unreservedly that 1 think the short
course in poultry culture has been a
great benefit to those who have taken
it. They have not only learned some
thing of the theory of feeding and re-
garding hygiene, diseases of fowls, ETC..
from our faculty, but have come into
direct contact with a large number of
practical and successful men who have
taught how to judge fowls and in re-
gard to a vast number of subjects
which cannot but be of the utmost
benefit to every practical poultryman.
The ages of the students range from
sixteen years to from forty to fifty
years and include both men and wom-
en- 1 think the majority will range
between twenty-five and thirty-f1ve
years Of age--H. ]. Wheeler, Director

Rotation of Crops,

From Farmers Review: AS to the
best rotation of crops for a wheat
grower, 1 would suggest the old rota-
ton of corn, oats, wheat and clover or
corn, soy beans or cowpeas, wheat and
clover with timothy. The latter rota-
ton l think is the better one where
the farmers can use the crops, as it is
virtually getting two clover crops in
the rotation or every second crop a
leguminous one 1t must be borne in
mind that no system in which the
most of the products of the soil are
removed from the farm can continu-
ously preserve the fertility OF the land
Unless the crops are partially returned
to the land by pasturing or hauling on
manure the clover and beans or peas
only form a means of more perfectly
draining the land of its elements of
fertility--H. B. Rice, Fulton County,
Illinois

Chicken Hawks

From Farmers Review: In sew
eral farm papers from time to time
have noticed articles on hawks, in
which articles the writer's seem to have
a very tender feeling for that bird of
prey. In this locality the hawk plays
havoc with the farmers poultry. 1
Judge that the writer's in question are
going altogether on theory, when they
advise US to spare the hawks, as they
catch mice, rats and rabbits and only
occasionally a chicken True enough.
there is little sparrow hawk that
preys on small birds, mice and rats
But as the field mice and rats have
their runs under the grass, weeds and
brush. and are principally nocturnal
in their habits, the hawk has small
chance to catch any of them As for
the rabbits I can safely say that the
chicken hawk seldom II ever catches .

mostly native mares crossed with we'll

this range was heavily stocked with

owing to the establishment of the Gila

upon which sheep and goats are not

been seriously injured. Up to this

Better Demand for Common Horses
Recently the demand for horses :.
the Chicago stockyards has improved.
Not only are the exportable horses
bringing better prices than for some
time, but there seems to be quite brisk
buying for farm use. We have fire.
quently pointed out the fact that the
conditions that have existed during the
past eight years would naturally bring
about a scarcity of farm horses. We
have made close inquiry through our
correspondents and find that in hun
dreds of counties in these western
states less breeding has been done of
late years than formerly. Meanwhile,
horses are rapidly wearing out in farm
work. The men that had horses to
shoot six years ago, now have not
even one good farm horse to sell, and
are even looking for horses to buy.
So, now we are told that at the Chi
cago stockyards a feature of the
trade is the better demand for medium
chunks for farm horses" Medium to
good animals are quoted a. $55 to $50.
and select chunks at $95 to $120. The
demand for mules for farm work is
also good, these animals selling at $S5
and large ones from $3.50 to $170. There
is an immense amount of work on
farms that can be done only by horses
and this means a constant demand that
can be counted on by horse raisers.
