Products of the Corn Plant.

Among the products Of the corn
plant are oils, paper, pith (that is used
in battleships to stop shot holes below
the water line), whisky, three kinds
of sugar, and two each of syrup and
molasses; many food elements, differ
ent kinds of cellulose, vicose, pyroXy-
lene and amyloid; many products use
full in the arts-celIuloid, collodion,
sizing, varnishes, films, filamentS for
incandescent lights, artificial silk, gun
cotton, smokeless powder and fine
charcoal; many varieties Of starch and
Of glucose; several kinds of gum, grape
sugar, corn rubber used for buffers on
railway cars, corn oil cake and meal,
malt, beer. wines, alcohol and fusel
oil, even shuck mats and shuck mat
tresses.
Notes About the Farm,
A good rotation for a stock farm is
corn, oats and grass.
Any animal that is worthy Of a place
on the farm has a right to good keep.
Spread manure as it is hauled out,
save labor and secure the best results.
The average farmer should buy as
little and sell as little feed as pos
sible.
The greatest profit in feeding sheep
for mutton is gained while the animals
are young.
Animals cannot thrive their best on
dry food alone, no matter how rich
and plentiful.
Brittle and rotten hoofs are caused
by horses standing in soft ammonia
breathing manure
The variety of sheep is not Of so
much consequence as is the item Of
securing good growth of wool.
A rapid taking on Of fat is not al
ways an indication of health and
thrift; quite often the contrary, in
fact
Above the food of productions that
goes to milk, a cow demands a food Of
support in proportion to her size.
Bran is rich in bone, and serves an
other good purpose in keeping the
bowels open.

Bush and Lima Beans.

Bush beans are harder than COM
monty supposed and may be soWn ear
lier than corn and other tender vege-
tables They will endure a degree OF
cold that will injure corn and prove
fatal to squash vines. Sow and drill
49, feet and cover about two inches
deep. Plants Of the bush variety
should grow about six inches apart.
The ground should be kept soft and
mellow and free from weeds. Snap
beans will be ready for table use
about two months from sowing, A
quart of beans will SOW 100 feet Of
drill. Lima beans are best planted in
hills, as poles are needed 1t is i'm
portant to plant the seed eye down,
else many Of the seed will fail to come
up. The limas are more tender than
the bush varieties and cannot be
safely planted SO early.

Death-Dealing Wire Fences

Since the use Of wire fences has be-
come so extensive the number of cat
tie killed each year by lightning has
greatly increased. Farmers insurance
companies have investigated the mat
ter, and now come forward with a
warning to policy holders. Nearly all
Of the cattle killed by lightning have
met their death in open fields, where,
in many instances, there was not even
a tree to attract the electric fluid. AS
many dead cattle were found near
wire fences, this led to the discovery
that the lightning was carried along
the wires composing the fences. Dur
ing a severe storm cattle are liable to
run until stopped by fence. Here
they stand huddled together ready for
the bolt. A remedy is suggested in
running a ground wire every ten rods
several feet into the earth.

RULES FOR RUNNING DAIRY.
II You Follow Them You Will Avoid
Many Annoyances That Now
Besot You.

The rules Of the Vermont Dairy as
sociation contains the following: The
mixer should be clean, and his clothes
likewise. Brush the udder just before
milking and wipe with q clean cloth or
sponge. Milk quietly, quickly and thor
ughly. Throw away into the gutter
the first few streams from each teat.
This milk is very watery, OF very little
value and is quite apt to injure the re-
mainder Of the milk. Remove the milk
promptly from the stable to clean, dry
room, where the air is pure and sweet.
Drain the milk through a clean flame!
cloth, or through two or three thick
nesses Of cheesecloth.. Aerate and cool
the milk as soon as it is strained. The
cooler it Is the more souring is retard-
ed If covers are left of the cans, cover
with cloths or mosquito netting Never
mix fresh milk with that which has
been cooled, nor close can containing
warm milk, nor allow it to freeze. I'm
der no circumstances should anything
be added to milk to prevent it souring.
Such doings violate the laws of both
God and man. The chemicals which
are used for this purpose are slow pois-
ons. Cleanliness and cold are the only
preservatives needed. In hot weather
jacket the cans with d clean, wet blan-
ket or canvas when moved in a wagon
Musty, sour food, dusty litter or fodder
should be out of the way at milking time

TIMELY DAIRY NOTES.

Bitter milk is generally caused by
bacteria. Keep the stable free from
dust and remove the milk aG soon as it
is drawn from the COW.
Unwashed butter, II the buttermilk
is we'll worked out, will keep as we'll or
better than butter washed in impure
water. II butter is worked too much 1t
spells the grain, hence the value OF
washing out the buttermilk when good
water can be obtained.
The ideal COW Of the Holland breeders
is Of wedge shape, with shoulders mod
erately thick, the chest full, the barrel
long, ribs spreading, abdomen strongly
held up, the hips broad, the rump long.

tiers straight, wide and full, and last but

SELECT GOOD COWS ONLY.
Guesswork in the Purchase of Dairy
Herd Is Economy That Might
Be Called Criminal.

1t is just as essential to keep good
COWS as any other animal. No man
can afford to keep poor cows, and es-
peclally the poor man. If rich man
wants to waste his money in poor
COWS it is not quite so bad, but poor
man must know better, or he cannot
expect much profit. In order to make
Roadway the poor man must keep ami
mails and use feed that will make tho
largest profit. You cannot afford to
keep a single COW that does not make
you profit. Be practical and busi-
nesslike and apply the only sure test.
Keep q book in which to enter on ono
side all milk. cream and butter,
whether consumed by the family or
sold. They are worth in your family
exactly what you would have to pay
for them II you had no cows. On the
other side enter the feed consumed,
whether purchased or raised on your
farm. The hay or corn fed is worth
on your farm the market price, less
cost of delivering to market. This test,
even II conducted for q short time, will
show you facts and not what you
guess about It, Some people refuse to
spend money for the best feed for
their cows. This is poor economy, be-
cause 1t is simply an investment which
VIII bring good returns In selecting
choice dairy cows: II the richest milk
Is wanted, keep the Jerseys; II both but
ter and milk are wanted, keep the Ayr
shire, but II large quantity of milk il
wanted for the manufacture of cheese,
then the Holsteins must have first
place. But, however. in either case al
ways select the best. Suppose you pay
$3O for poor COW and come out even
at the end Of the year. Suppose you
pay $50 for a first class COW, and at
the end Of the year she can show you
a pront Of $50. If you keep cows for
pront Just figure this over carefully.
1t requires just as good business quail
ties to be successful dairyman as It
does to be successful in any other
business. II you don't think SO you had
better quit the business.-E. L. Morris,
In Epitomist.

wheel beneath. There are no belts, no
cogs. The weight of the animal bears
the part OF the large inclined wheel
upon the smaller wheel beneath and
causes it to revolve.
A discarded wagon wheel might be
used as the framework Of the large
wheel, mailing boards on the upper
surface for the animal to walk on, or a
frame is easily made, and If somewhat
larger than q wagon wheel-say six
feet or seven feet in diameter-the cir
Gle will be larger and the animal will
find the walking more direct. The

in diameter. The power is increased

HOW DO YOUR COWS LOOK?
Brush Them OF at Least Once a Dav.
Using an Old Horse Curry
comb and Brush.

Coming toward spring now, and It IS
lair question for every farmer to ask
himself how his COWS look about this
time of the year.
Are they loaded down with the filth
that has been accommodating all winter?
Too late to help that much, now; but
mark it down now that another season
you will begin in the fall and curry your
cows every day just as regularly as you
do your horses. But one thing you can do
even now along this line; you can brush
the cow of at least once day, using an
old horse curry comb and brush. This
will relieve he cows when the hair is be-
ginning to come out and make them feel
better, saying nothing about the differ
ence in looks.
And then, you can feed better than you
have been doing. 1t will add many dol
lars to your account before next winter
to have all the cows 60 out OF the barn in
in the best possible condition. The cow
that is all run down, so that you can see
her ribs about as far as you can see her,
cannot do anything much for you for
the first month or two after she goes to
pasture. She is too busy gathering up
lost flesh and strength. Still further.
you can watch your cows more carefully
now than at any other season of the year.
The time of coming into new milk is q
most important one. Some cows are
spoiled for the season by neglect at this
critical period.
So watch and care for the COW now as
at no other time of the year.-Farm
Journal.

This Is Worth Thinking About.

How does little Denmark, where land
is worth $500 an acre, manage to capture
the English market from the big United
States? The answer is simply this.
They send men over to study the English
markets and find out the kind OF butter
that England wants. These men then 30
home and make that kind instead of do
ing as the Yankees did-try to educate
the Englishman's appetite to the kind
Americans make. In Denmark dairymen
cooperate and help each other in every
possible manner; they have cooperative
creameries, cooperative eggs sale houses
and cooperative slaughter houses. They
simply gu about doing honest hard work
and always produce q uniform product

For Growing Girls.

West Pembroke, Me-, March 2l-Mrs.
a. y. Smith, Of this place, says that
Dodd's Kidney Pills are the best remedy
for growing girls. Mrs. Smith emphasizes
her recommendation by the following ex-
perience: a
MY daughter wa. thirteen years old
last November and it is now two years
since she was first taken with Crazy
Spells that would last a week and would
then pass off. In month she would have
the spells again. At these times She
would eat very little and was very yellow,
eve2 the whites Of her eyes would be yell
low.
1.-THE doctors gave us no encouragement,
they all said they could not help her.
Alter taking one box of Dodd's Kidney
Pills, she has not had one bad spell. OF
course, we continued the treatment IN
til she had used in all about a dozen
boxes, and we still give them to her oc-
casionally, when she il not feeling well.
Dodd's Kidney Pills are certainly the best
medicine for growing girls"
Mothers should heed the advice Of Mrs.
Smith, fol, by SO doing they may save
their daughters much pain and sickness
