The Nubian Goat.

The Nubian goat is larger by half
than the common species, and many
who are unfamiliar with it take it at
first glance for horse, says George
F. Thompson, in his book on An.
CORA Goat Raising" Below the top
of the head the forehead rises so as
TO form conical prominence, then
SINKS toward the nose until the nos.
trils are in an actual depression. The
lower jaw protrudes beyond the up
per, and the teeth oftentimes ex-
tend above the nostrils The ears are
fat, long, large and pendant. Some.
times, however, an individual is found
with ears short, straight and pointed.
There is an entire absence of beard
The females have no horns. Those

upon the lower part of the udder, but
IN lhls hfeeQ upon the outside and be-
low. The eyes are very large and lie
fiat in the head-do not protrude. The
hair is usually quite long, deep brown
or black, and quite fine. There is no
odor connected with this breed. 1t is
an exceedingly prolific animal, having
been known TO give birth to as MANY
as II kids in one year. No member of
the goat family is more gentle. This
breed is very sensitive TO the cold
apparently being unable to withstand
even a slight degree. This necessi-
tates a warm barn or goat house.
They should never be sent TO pasture
when there is frost. We are in
formed that the slightest cold pro.
duces abortion. They are good milk
producers, yielding from four to six
quarts per day.

Safe Prices for Butter.

We do not believe it TO the advan-
tage of farmers to have butter too
high in price. just as We do not be
lieye it TO be to the advantage of the
stock raiser to have meats too high
in price. When butter is beyond %
cents in the summer time it is at
point where the substitutes of butter
are certain to be used TO consider
able extent. This is not a condition
to be hoped for. The nation is of
more Importance than the individual,
and while the butter maker wants to
get as much as possible for his prod
uct, he also has an interest in having
good wholesome butter within the
reach of all When butter is selling
beyond 20 cents it is at a point where
the farmer can make money if he
has the right kind of cows. 1t is pos
sible to keep such poor cows that
every pound of butter would cost 80
cents, but We cannot reasonably be
expected to figure on such cows We
take the reasonably good COW of the
intelligent farmer, and assert that
with her there is a profit in selling
butter at 20 cents a pound. In the
months when the cows have TO be
kept up there is profit in selling but
ter at from 25 to 80 cents per pound
Butter in the West should never retail
at more than 80 cents per pound, and
Will not when We have disposed Of all
the poor cows and filled their places
with good ones. The consumer of but
ter may think that he does not. care
what kind of cows the farmer has,
but if he but knew it he has very
material interest in the question.
Butter is high because OF the great
cost Of producing butter fat due to
poor quality in the COWS

American Royal Live Stock Show.

From the Farmers Review: The
American Royal Live Stock Show to
be held at Kansas City. Mo, next Oc-
tober will be much more comprehen-
sive than any live stock show ever
before held in that city. At a meeting
OF the executive committee April 2, 1t
was decided to admit the sheep breed
ers and breeders of draft and coach
horses to the show. This will insure
larger variety of purebred animals
than was ever shown here before. There
will be Hereford, Shorthorn, Galloway
and Angus cattle, at least four breeds of
swine, four or five breeds Of sheep,
Angora goats, and several breeds OF
draft and coach horses. The show will
be held at the stock yards October
1924 inclusive. Prizes aggregating
pected that number of special prizes
will be added. At the meeting
1t was decided that the sale of Gallo
ways would be held on Tuesday, Aber-
deen-Angus on Wednesday, HerefCrds
on Thursday and Shorthorns on Fri
day. 1t was also decided to offer the
prizes donated by the Kansas City
Stock Yards Company, aggregating 81,
900, for exhibits OF grade feeders, to
be divided equally among the four
breeds. Range-bred feeders will not
compete with corn-fed animals. 1t
was recommended that the 9Sth meri-
dian be adopted by the several breeds
as the dividing line between the range
bred cattle and the native cornfed cat
tie. The directors OF the show were
unanimous in inviting the swine breed
ers to participate in the show. Swine
associations that wish to enter the
show must signify their intention to
do so by July l. 1t is practically set
tied that the Berkshire, Poland-China,
Duroc-Jersey and Ohio Chester White
associations will participate. Breeders
of coach and draft horses have signi-
fled their desire to enter the show, and
have given assurances that they will
make a large exhibit. One firm of
breeders and importers of draft horses
has expressed its intention of entering
80 animals. Those who attended the
meeting of April were: C. E. Leon

Pig Pasture.

Provide shallow trough with oat
meal, soaked corn and a little milk,
as soon as the pigs are inclined to
run around the pen. said H. P. West.
IN an address to Wisconsin farmers.
Put 1t where the pigs can have access
to it and the SOW cannot. Get the SOW
and pigs in clover pasture as soon as
you can. Do not wean the pigs. If
'hey are properly fed they will wean
themselves at eight or ten weeks old.
Tdrn all the grass and green feed you
can into pork. 1t is cheap feed. 1t
does not rob the farm of ANYTHING:
you are selling your grass at a good
price and 1t benefits the health of the
hog. Swine breeders who have no
clover or fall rye pasture to turn their
pigs into this spring are studying the
problem OF some early pasture: some
th'ng that will afford green feed
earlier than usual. l think nothing

Some Experience with Ducks.

some experience Wilt 1uSSh.
From the Farmers Review: Some
years since | saw an ad in an ex-
change journal which read like this:
Would like to swap some hrst ciass
Pekin ducks for b. p. K. cockerels,
signed Mrs. Well l had
more cockerels than | needed, so
wrote her about the ducks. You know
| wanted a pedigree of her stock. In
the course of a month full particulars
came to hand. Well, we made dick
er, and | guess it was satisfactory.
at least We will say so. We got two
ducks and one drake. They were big
ones to be sure, but about month
after l went out to feed them and one
refused to eat feed. | did not think
of anything very serious SO as time
went on duck No. l got better and
the second one was attacked with the
same affection. AS was not
acquainted with the diseases Of that
particular kind Of fowl did not do
anything for it and of course it cied.
| think the duck had kidney trouble,
because it seemed to have weak
spine. The remaining one laid about
90 eggs, and as l do not have an
incubator, l set the eggs under hens.
After the little fellows were ready to
be taken from the nest | put them
under coop with the hen mother
brakes and kept 10 ducks for the next
years breeders, in the meantime pur-
chasing two good brakes. And
figured like this, IF one duck and one
drake will produce "a ducks, 10 ducks
and two brakes will produce ten times
as many which is 240." They began
laying about March Is, and in about
a month we began to pick the ducks
at regular intervals. This put stop
to the laying business. l set $50 eggs
and for the first week or SO fed them

not sloppy with fresh water to drink
After the first week l fed them on

they could get only SO far from the
coop. When fall came l had raised
"a ducks to maturity, sold off all the
Some hatched out all right and some
OF the hens got tired of sitting and
flew the coop" The eggs became
chilled; result, duck died in shell.
TO make long story short, I
hatched out Is and, as, we were all
engaged in building barn, the Ioul-
try business was neglected In spite
OF bad weather, turtles, hawks, owls,
rats, etc, we had one left when fall
came and this one took sick and died
But nevertheless l am still in the

Preparing a Starter.

Oscar Err, in an address before In
diana darymen. said:
The preparation OF a starter is as
follows: Select three or four pint
Jars of the best milk that comes to
the creamery, or, where opportunity
affords, select the milk from several
good cows. cover these jars and set
them away in a warm place until the
milk has coagulated. From these
select the one that has developed the
Test sharp, acid taste, free from dis
agreeable odors and gas bubbles, and
that shows a solid curd can of
skim milk should then be heated to
temperature not exceeding 175 deg.
F. for twenty minutes and cooled to
10 or 80 deg. F. The selected jar OF
milk is then added, and, after thor
oughly mixing. the can is set in a
place where the temperature can be
kept at 10 or so deg. F. for twenty-four
hours. A wooden tank, large enough
TO hold seven or eight times the
amount of water occupied by the
starter can, answers the purpose we'll
for keeping this starter at uniform
temperature LOT q long tlne. Inc en-
tire amount of the starter should be
soured at the end of this period and
apparently of the same flavor as that
OF the original selected jar. The
starter is now ready for use, and an
amount equal TO or per cent of
the cream to be ripened is added. BY
adding one or two quarts daily to
fresh pasteurized milk it can be per
petuated to the extent of eight to ten
days, depending on the cleanliness and
the care taken in pasteurizing the
skim milk.
This method of preparing a starter
invariably brings good results Quite
often. however, simpler methods are
proposed for preparing starters. such
as leaving some cream in the vat and
running the fresh cream with it, or
by adding buttermilk to the cream;
but these cannot be recommended, for
they too often fail in producing the
desired flavor
The Grit-advocate., 1903-05-01
It Depends on the Person,

c. S. Greene: Only in recent years
has poultry keeping taken its place
among recognized industries, as the
bulk of the worlds enormous supply
OF poultry and eggs has hitherto come
from numerous small producers. The
number of people who make a living
out OF the business are comparatively
few compared with the small producer.
but they are increasing rapidly, and
to one who is naturally adapted to
the business it is the most pleasant
and profitable employment upon which
he can enter. 1t is true that many
have failed when they tried to keep
poultry in large numbers. So they
have in other pursuits. II a merchant,
through his lack Of ability, or because
he is in a bad location. is obliged to
close his store and hand the keys over
to the sheriff, it is not saying thai
there is no money in the mercantile
business. So it is with poultry II all
depends on the man, and his ability
to make money. The poultry business
is not one for children or invalids. bu.
men and women are both making Il
success of it, and find it pleasant and
prohtable vocation. To make the
business success a person must be
an expert in the management of fowls.
While it is true that many have
started before they became expertsO
and made success of it, they have
been willing to begin in a small way
and grow in the business as their
knowledge OF the business increased.

A Philippine Experiment, Station.

The United States government is
establishing an experiment station in
the Philippine islands. Already
part OF the STAFF has reached the field.
and botanist, an agrostologist. an
expert in soils, superintendent OF
the farm and helpers are there at
work. The experiment farms estab-
lished by the Spanish government
were visited. II was found that many
OF the buildings had been destroyed
or been allowed to go to pieces, while
the tools and farm machinery had
been stolen or rendered useless
through neglect. Already nunlbe of
farms have been established. one of
which has 5000 cocoanut trees on
it American machinery has been in
troduced, and natives are being
taught TO use it. About 700 intelligen,
native farmers have been given an
aggregate of $4,000 packages OF seeds
and set TO experimenting Though
naturally a fruit producing region,
fruit growing has been entirely neg
lected in the past, the people being
willing to take what nature gave. The
eNperimenrers will accomplish great
things along this line. Field tillase
and stock raising are 10 be 'stiuulat-
ed, in spite of the rinder pest. which
has been working havoc among the
draft animals. Of the 10 million acres
of land in the island. 65 million are
owned by the government. which
shows how little attention agriculture
has so far received. Under wise direc-
ton. the Philippine archipelago will
become great agricultural common
wealth.
