FARM IMPROVEMENTS.

have few thoughts in mind
about farm improvements which ! am
going to write. as it may be of some
benefit TO others. In the first place
too many farmers practice too close
grazing Of the pasture lands. The
hot sun of summer bakes the surface
Of the ground, killing the grass roots;
this followed by the winds and frosts
OF winter not only ruins the pasture.
but impovcrishes the soil. Grass land
that Is too closely pastured will re-
tain the moisture il received. forcing
a more abundant growth. The prac-
tice Of pasturing meadows after har.
vest, to any great extent, will be a
loss in the next seasons crop of hay.
1t should be the aim of every farmer
to have the soil in better condition
after a succession of crops than when
the ground is first broken. This may
be done by not selling off the hay
and grain, but feeding ii on the farm;
thereby returning to the soil In the
shape of manure the equivalent OF
that produced. Whenever fences are
required and of whatever kind, they
should be well kept. Nothing gives
a farm a rundown" appearance
quicker than bad fences. 1t is no sign
of Improvement to see the fence cor
ners lined with briers and bushes and
the rails scattered about-all taking
the room % some valuable crop.
Board fences sag over, with the posts
a foot or more above the boards,
which. ii put that much deeper in
the ground. might have made a good
fence. The posts of a wire fence
should not be too far apart, and they
should be we'll braced with each wire
drawn tight.

FARM NOTES.

The best way to keep the boy on
the farm Is to let him own something.
Give him couple of pigs. They may
be the means of making farm life
enjoyable to him.
For scratches on horses take sui
phur, saltpeter and ginger, equal parts
of the three, and lard enough to make
a salve. Wash legs clean once a day
with air Stacked lime, and apply the
salve.
In almost every case of viclousness
in a horse, the horse has contracted
the vice from man. In cases of in
herited vice, IL is the fault of tie
man if II has not been cured. Vicions
associations corrupt horses as well as
man.
Hogs need clean bed as much as
people do. Especially should dirty
sleeping places be avoided. Hogs
suffer from inhaling dust as much as
men or eOmen or children do. Dis
ease fioas.i on the air and dust is the
vehicle by which it reaches it's dcs-
tination,

KEEP GOOD COWS.

1t is just as essential to keep good
COWS as any other animal No man
can afford to keep poor COWS, and es-
pecially the poor man. If rich man
wants to waste his money in poor
COWS 1t is not quite so bad, but a poor
man must know better, or he cannot
expect much profit. In order to make
Roadway the poor man must keep anil
mails and use feed that will make the
largest profit. You cannot afford to
keep a single COW that does not make
you a profit. Be practical and bust
ness-like and apply che only sure test.
Keep book in which to enter on one
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 if you had no COWS. On
the other side enter the feed con-
sumed 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 mar
ket. This test, even if conducted for
q SHUT liint, VIII SHOW you IdClS anu
not what you guess about it. Some
people refuse to spend money for the
best feed for their cows. This is poor
economy, because IT is simply an in
vestment which will bring good re-
turns. In selecting choice dairy cows;
if the richest milk is wanted, keep the
Jerseys; if both butter and milk are
wanted, keep the AYRSHIRE, but if
large quantity of milk is wanted for
the manufacture of cheese, then the
Holsteins must have first place. But.
however, in either case always select
the best. Suppose you pay $50 for
poor COW, and come out even at the
end of the year. Suppose you pay $50
for first-class COW, and at the end
of the year she can show you a profit
of $50. If you keep COWS for profit
just figure this over carefully. 1t re-
quires just as good business qualities
to be a successful dairyman as it
does to be successful in any other
business. If you don't think so you
had better quit the business.

Temperature Of churnlna.

Many a farmers wife spoils her
butter by churning at too high a
temperature. The result is that the
product OF her churn is greasy and
poor In quality and keeps for but a
short time. Some people also put hot
water into the cream to make the but
ter come quicker. The result of this
rise in temperature is to destroy the
grain and at the same time incorpo-
rate with the butter a great deal of
casein, which is the part that goes
TO make the body of cheese. This but
ter is increased in quantity also by
the incorporation of an unusual
amount of water. II the butter is
made when the temperature of the
cream is at, say, 80 degrees, the kind
OF butter will result that IL Ii came
under the eyes of United States dairy
inspectors would be excluded from the
market and the sellers thereof fined
for selling butter with a water con-
tent above the legal 16 per cent. The
woman that wants TO make good but
ter must do her churning when the
cream is at a temperature of not
above Go degrees. IL would be better
to churn at as low as fifty degrees,
but this is rather hard for people
that have to churn by hand. The peo-
pie that try to work the so-called two
minute churns frequently have to
raise the temperature of the cream
to about 80 degrees before getting the
results that have been advertised
That is, the time of churning is reg
ulated to some extent by the tempera-
ture. Every maker of butter should
have thermometer. One can be pur-
chased for twenty cents, and, this be-
ing the case, there is no reason why
every person should not have the ad-
vantage of knowing the temperature
OF their cream at churning time.

A DIFFERENCE.

There is a difference between the
farmer who is farmer by chance and
the farmer who is farmer by choice.
The former is generally a man deco
rated, SO to speak, from head to foot
with mortgages and judgments; while
the latter is man who despiseS
debts, and whose original capital.
maybe, consisted of only wondrous
store of energy and cool Judgment
the greatest factors in the matter Of
fortune-building on or off the farm.
No matter what industry engages
the attention of man, he must, by
the nature of things, be interested in
his work to be successful. To be in
terested means to have some choice
ut least in the avocation he pursues.
The usual difference between farmers
by chance and farmers by choice is
well illustrated by a man sleeping
and awake.
To tho farmer who has made farm
ing his choice, every day has a bright
outlook. When he gaZes upon field
being prepared for seeding, he does
not see drouth and disaster awaiting
the growing crop, but instead, he sees
vision of waving grain and grass.
When he looks upon the rich and gol-
den harvest, like a true husbandman.
he sees at a glance only joyous pros
perity, the ripened fruits of his earn
est and heroic labor.
Farming is to-day the worlds great
est industry, and it will be bright
day Tor agriculture when the slow
and sleeping mortal who farms by
chance is awakened to realize his OPP
portunities. In June at the close OF
the 1902-03 term Of the Northwestern
University, there were graduated six
teen young men who have made farm
ing their choice-a greater number
than declared for any ether pursuit.
Advancement is continually being
made in the farming industry, and it
will progress still further so long as
there is an increase in the farmers
who farm by choice.

Cream in the Pantry.

II is common in our farm houses to
set the cream in the pantry or in the
cel!arway, where all kinds of food
are also kept. 1t is safe to say that
cream cannot be set in such places
and give good butter. Some people
may like butter that tastes of dough-
nuts, pies, cookies, limburger cheese,
onions, celery, cloves, cinnamon.
oranges. apples and the like, but most
people like to have the aroma that
belongs to butter rather than to the
pantry. Probably the one greatest OBJ
stacle to getting good flavor in farm
made butter Is this one of the setting
of milk to rise in the pantry. 1t is
such a firmly settled custom that it
will be with difficulty broken up, in
spite of the fact that much such but
ter has to be sold to the poorest mar
ket and at not above ten cents per
pound. The nose of the housewife is
so accustomed to the smells of the
pantry that she never thinks of them
when she is putting her milk away to
undergo the process of cream raising.
Cream in the pantry should be abol-
ished. and in its place should come
cream in the cream room, a place set
aside for this operation and sealed
against the entrance of all odors that
will give the butter a disagreeable
taste. The woman that does that Is
very likely to get a great reputation
as a maker OF fire butter.

Wheat Bran For MIX MAKING.

WnCdA 0TdU TOT NtAih mdktVNs
Men frequently misjudge the value
of feeds by their density. Thus there
is a strong opinion among farmers
that cornmeal is better for milk max
ing than bran. 1t is heavy and has a
beautiful color and the COW owner as
sociates it with rich cream. But the
fact is, bran is, in the main, more val
liable for milk making than is corn
meal, in spite of the attractive ap-
pearance of cornmeal. The stomach
of the COW is better suited to take
care of bran than of cornmeal, be-
cause it is more bulky. The COW was
made for the purpose Of using up just
such waste products as bran would
be without farm animals to consume
ii. And bran cannot be judged by its
lightness. The question of nsing or
not using bran is one that must be
decided on its price, compared with
the prices OF other like feeds. At the
same price as corn it is far more
profitable to be used for the making
of milk. It's protein content is high,
but not so high that the digestive APP
paratus of the animals will be injured
by it. American farmers should not
permit a pound of bran to go across
the waters, but should buy and feed
every pound of it, thus not only max
ing the profit that may be made out of
1t, but saving the fertility for their
land; for the fertilizing qualities of
bran are considerable.

FEEDING VALUE OF CLOVER IN
THE DAIRY.

Few fully appreciate the feeding
value of this plant. It contains the
elements of growth and milk in the
right proportion. When corn is worth
forty cents a bushel the protein that
is contained in a ton of good clover
hay should be worth from sl2 to SIS.
When timothy hay is worth six dol
lars, clover hay is worth almost twice
rs much. II contains one-half more
milk-making material than millet hay,
and instead of exhausting the soil
like timothy or millct IL builds IL up
by taking nitrogen from the atmos-
phere aud brings to the surface soil
potash and phosphoric acid from the
subsoil.

rhs Hand separator 70 STAY,

There has been war between the
men that believe in hand separators
for farm use and the men that believe
that all milk should be hauled to the
creamery. The latter declare that as
good butter cannot be made from
gathered cream as from the cream
taken from fresh milk brought in.
This may be so; but one thing should
not be lost sight of, and that is that
the hand separator has come to stay,
and the argument of whether It is a
good thing may as well be discon-
tinued. The time will be better spent

JERUSALEM ARTICHoKEs.

If the farmers of the South knew
the great feeding value of this plant
in connection with swine raising it
would soon become one of the leading
crops on every farm where hogs are
raised either for home supply or mar
ket. They should be planted as early
in the spring as potatoes. and in near
~ the same manner and varieties of
soil Plow deep, SO that good root
bed is provided. Cut the tubers as
you would potatoes, using your own
judgment ii you are an experienced
potato raiser. Plant a little thinner
than potatoes, as the plants grow tall
and throw out long branches. Guilt
vate as you do your corn, laying by
when the stalks get too tall to work
over without breaking. They are har-
vested as potatoes, il the tubers are
to be stored. If for hog food the ami
mails may be turned into the field to
root out the tubers as needed.

II is often remarked of city people
that every one of them wears signs
of being hurried, careworn, anxious
and that ii shows itself in their very
walk and action. There is a restless,
worn look about the eye, lines are in

gray. 1t is said that, as people,
they are nervously active and dissatis
fed. This is getting TO be true, also,
of country people. Human nature is
