Paying Rent in Butter Fat.

An unusual method of paying rent
for land, which is to be tried in the
irrigated alfalfa district of California
may be found in the prospectus of a
land company, which advertises to
rent its land to dairy tenants for
one-third of the butter fat produced
by the cows running on this irrigated
land. The tenant then gets for his
share two-thirds of all the butter fat
in addition to the calves and pigs pro-
duced on the place. The tenant must
furnish his own cattle, so that he
ought to take as much pride in
keeping the herd up to high stand
ard as if he owned the land. 1t is
expected that the land company's in
terest will be equal to a fair rate of
interest on a valuation of $1OO per
acre. A thrifty tenant with good
cows should be able to make hand
some profit besides supporting his
family in comfort.

FIRST TSTAGEOF CATARRH
A Serious Mistake Which Thou.
sands Are Making.

The first stage of catarrh is what is
commonly known as catching cold"
1t may be in the head, nose, throat or
lungs. Its beginning is sometimes so
severe as to cause a chill and consider
able fever, or it may be so slight as to
not hinder a person from his usual
business. In perhaps a majority of
cases little or no attention is paid to
the first stage of catarrh, and hence it
is that nearly one-half of the people
have chronic catarrh in some form.
To neglect a cold is to invite chronic
catarrh. AS soon as any one discovers

B. Sotham, the noted Hereford breed
er, "and make them gain two pounds
apiece per day on the same amount
of feed which is needed to make one
mature steer gain two pounds, that
is, six pounds of gain on calves for
two on steer. Double the money
can be made by feeding calves that
can be made on two-year-olds. A man
must feed stock with good blood, and
then he will not be in financial
troubles. Let him buy calves and
fatten them. 1t is by far a better
system than putting two-year oil
three-year-old steers into the feed
lot"

COST OF MAKING MILK.
New jersey Experiment Station Pre-
Aents Some Figures which Are
Worth Studying.

The New Jersey experiment station
kept strict account of the cost of
feeding large herd of cows for five
years, and the product, with view
to ascertaining the cost of making
milk. The average production per
year for five years was 1000 pounds,
or G,479 pounds per COW. The cost
per cow per day for roughage was CPL
cents, and for grain fed Gil cents.
The average cost per quart of milk
for five years, including feed, labor
and interest and decrease in the value
of the herd, was 2.3s cents. The
highest average was 2.49 cents per
quart in 1896, and the lowest 2.2s
cents per quart in 1898.
During the year ended April 1, 1901,
there was as average of 30 cows kept,
and the food cost per day was 1865
cents-7.3 cents for grain and 5.35
cents for roughage. The average
yield of milk per COW per day was
S.26 quarts, and the cost of food per
quart, 1.54 cents. To this must be
added IS cent per quart, for la
bor and interest, making total
cost of milk per quart, 2.34 cents.
The average weight of milk per quart
was 2.1S pounds, making the cost per
100 pounds $1.o7. In calculating the
cost of farmgrown foods, these were
charged at the actual cost of labor,
seed and manure, the farm being
charged with manure at the rate OF
$3.50 per ton. The herd made during
the year $50 tons.
