cow Feeding.

No dairyman needs to be told that this
winters conditions as regards purchased
feeds are peculiar and dis heartening The
experiment station has been several times
imporluned to throw some light on the
best dai.y-feedng practice under these
conditions. 1t is obvious that no rule can
be given which will be good under all cir
cumstanees The farmer who has his
mows well filed with early cut hay, con-
tanning considerable clover and a plentiful
supply OF wel-eared siage. can get along
with less concentrates than the one whose
hay is largely timothy or is late Cut! The
man who has but little clover, and who
has not yet learned the value of silage, Is
certainly in bad fix.
Then again the advice which should be
given the man with thoroughly good
dairy animals would differ from that adapt
ed to him whose stock is OF the average or
low grade.
1t may be said in general, however, that
purchases this year, of all years, should be
confined almost exclusively to bran, cot
tonseed. lnseed and gluten meals or feeds
Experiment stations and institute speakers
have for years been expoundlog the doc
trine that the purchase OF corr and oats
by New EnglAnders is an unwise practice.
Tn. conditions of this winter are driving
home these facts with sledge hammer
blows. OF course if grain feed is purchas-
ed at all it should be the same for him
who has good and him who has poor an
imals, for him whose hay is Of the best
and whose silo is full, aud for him whose
meadows yielded but poorly and whose
corn is stocked.
The amounts that need be fed, however
will probably vary from a comparatively
small grain ration for the man whose
roughags are plentiful and good, to a
medium or large one for the one who has
been less forehanded. The Vermont Elk
pertinent Station advises as good grain
mixture for this year, four parts bran
one part of cottonseed or gluten meal. ano
one part of linseed meal, amounts TO bt
ted varying from four to eight pounds
according to circumstances. -Amerlcar

Among the birds that are living high
er life, 1t is the female bird who carries
the bod during building time. The huS-
band sits about on twigs and tells her how
to do it. A woodpecker should be very
pariah among decent birds. The moment
a woodpecker's mate gets through nesting
he tells her ''to take her clothes and co.
then he establishes himself in the house
she has built--and she goes and builds
another for winter She is fool enough
to take another woodpecker to boss the
job if she can find one willing, but as a
general thing all the male woodpeckers
at that time are as comfortably provided
for as her legitimate spouse, so she has to
work without getting kicked for it.

Ten years ago the raising of sheep in
Maine was carried on much more extern
sivey than at present, In 1892 there
were $40. ro7 sheep in the State while in
1901 the numter was reduced to 2364o5,
falling off of I34Io7 Several reasons
are given for this large reduction in the
number of sheep, the most plausible be-
ing that the farmers OF Maine have found
that the dairy business is far more prof
able investment than sheep raising.
Another cause for the falling off In sheep
raising is that western lambs are brought
into the eastern market and sold at price
that would hardly pay Maine farmers il
they kept up competition.

from an attack of bilious collie, sent to a
nearby drug store for something to re-
lieve him. The druggist sent him bot
tie of Chamberlain Collie, Cholera and

effected permanent cure. This is the
only remedy that can be depended upon
in the most severe cases of collie and
cholera morbus. Most druggists know
this and recommend it when such a
