FEEDING DRIED BLOOD.
Kansas Experiment Station Consid-
ers 1t Excellent for Prevent
ing ScOurs in Calves.

The Kansas Experiment station in
reporting upon feeding dried blood as
a preventative of scours says:
Dried blood is not only good for a
weak calf, but is an excellent remedy
for any calf subject to scours. With
the 70 head of young calves under ex-
pertinent at the Kansas station during
the past year, there has not been a
single case of scours that dried blood
has failed to check.
'In feeding dried blood, g. teaspoon
full at feed is great plenty This
should be continued until the scours
disappear In case of weak calf the
allowance may be gradually Increased
to tablespoonful at a feed"
To prevent the dried blood from set
Ting to the bottom of the pail, where
the calf will be unable to get it, it
may be stirred in the milk while the
calf is drinking or the milk and blood
nay be fed Immediately after being
thoroughly mixed.
''Since dried blood is such cheap
and effective remedy, it will pay any
one who raises young calves by hand
to have a little available whenever
calf shows signs of disorders in it's
digestive trace"

a hard-earned and many times washed
white swiss, was serenely happy, and
all unconscious of the glance that boded
no good that fell on her from the
weighty Rachel.

young wench to another "Lawd, |

Il 'clah, she look LAX she mournin'-
mebbe she gwine come tn 90 tonight!
said the other, derisively.
1t proved to be an unusually tu-
multuous meeting The 'mourner's
bench" recently heightened by the ad-
dition of three new benches, filled up.
The air became feryid. High above the
songs Of the younger ones could be
heard the happy shouts of the elders;
the invitation hymn was sung again and
again, and while it rolled upward in
neutrality-suspicious., strong-a long
drawn murmur of surprise checked the
voices. Big Six had risen and was max
ing her way to the mourner's bench!
A greater wave of excitement swept
over the throng; keen-voiced negress
changed the song,
"Ol' Satan thought he had me fas'
But has broke his chains-I'm free at
las't"
AS the congregation took up the re-
frain the saints all over the house shout
ed anew in their joy. Some reeled in
their excitement and fell over the
benches-not few rolled on the floor
in joyful frenzy and near the door four
men were compelled to hold slim ma
iron to prevent her from overturning
the fireless stove and injuring herself in
her excitement.
Suddenly Rachel flung up her hands,
and her call could be heard above the
loudest shouts of the multitude.
GLORY! Glory! Gimme de glory!
Tse convince O. my ongodly deeds.
Gimme de glory now!"
Come on, friends an glib de hand to

cloth can be divided into three strips,
each strip being tackled at one end to a
reel, and at the other end to a 15-inch
rod of wood. Stick the sides of the reel
into the earth at one end of the row with
wire supports at intervals along the row,
and pull the cloth along over the plants,
fastening the end at the last wire sup

slip wire support down over the cloth

scious of those who clasped her hands,
but when Judy stood in front of her, she
was apparently seized with another
paroXism of joy.
Glory" she shouted, plunging for
ward, Il got de glory now!" With one
hand she struck off Judy's cherished
straw sailor and trampled it under her
feet. With the other, she gave one
mighty jerk, and the white swiss waist
was hanging from Judy's trembling
shoulders.
GLORY! Glory! Use boun' fun
Glory now!" she calculated, and with
lightning rapidity her fat hand dealt a
binding blow in the face of her unfor-
tunate rival Then lowering her head.
like charging bull, Six literally but
ted screaming Judy out of the open side
door and stamped her disheveled body
before the confused negroes realized
what she was doing.
Jordon leaped to the rescue, and while
willing hands pulled off Six, he lifted
the limp and helpless Judy, whose torn
dress was dyed with the crimson tide

Those who rejoiced most over the ap-
parent conversion of Blk Six were
lOudest in condemnation of her method
of announcing it.
Don b'lieve dat mig ubbah thought

to git chanst to hurt judy"
This was the universal verdict loudly
proclaimed.
Next day Jordon sat by Judy's bed

anxiety.
"Ef you'll jes' say you kin fuhgive me

he whispered, "I'll nubbah ask nothin'

Judy looked at him with little gasp
of apprehension.

sob in her voice.

BERRIES Fer MARKET.
II Pays 10 Raise Them. Provided the
Crop Ia Disposed OF in the Right
Way and Place.


Having been asked, by a farmer SUBJ
scriber, if it will pay to grow berries
for market. in reply l will say yes
If the business is managed right, and
the-crop disposed of in the right way
and place. A good many of our
towns are not properly supplied with
berries; what they get. if any, are
second class-the overflow or refuse
from the cities, where the market is
often glutted. The commission men
send circulars out before the berries
are ripe, giving prices of berries shipped
from the south, inducing many home
growers to ship. BY the time their ber-
RES get ripe the demand is supplied.
prices drop, and the berries being per-
lshable product, have to be sold for
what they will bring.
My advice is to grow berries for local
market towns that are not we'll supplied.
Such places can be found in the west;
land can be bought for less than half
that close to large cities, pickers are
cheap, and, as rule, more reliable.
berries that get too ripe on account of
rain, and which will not do to ship. can

when consumers get fresh, wholesome.
home grown berries, they often get twice
as many, and the growers in the local
market often can regulate the price.
1t is mistake to plant too large an
acreage. We have TO pay two cents a
quart for pickers; one cent for straw
berries and blackberries and one and
one-half to two cents for raspberries.
The pickers can make good wages I

ago, were not profitable, as so many

Set a green hand to pruning trees.

moved, and the chances are ten to one
that he will commence on the upper
side of the limb and saw it off, saving
through until, by its own weight, it falls,
tearing down the bark and wood, infiict-
ing an ugly wound which it may require
years to heal, and which, if not carefully
protected from the weather, will cause
such decay as to destroy the tree. To
prevent injury to the tree, saw one

Starting Early Vegetables.

trench four feet deep, fill with horse ma
nure well packed down and made moist,
put on six inches fine soil, cover with
sash and let stand few days. Then
plant sweet potatoes, cabbage, tomatoes
and celery. If the bed is big enough, cut
choice Irish potatoes to one eye, fill
small pasteboard boxes with soil and
plant one in each. When soil is warm
enough they can easily be traLsplanted.
Cover the bed with heavy straw mating

The Rural Trolley Line.

The Importance of the electric car
to the rural community as means of
freight transportation is just beginning
to be appreciated, and it is believed that
the next few years will witness a won
derful development in this means of
transportation of products For several
years past milk, garden truck and live
stock have been carried by the electric
cars from nearby farming diStricts to
the larger cities. Under the plan which
is rapidly spreading over the country
the regular railroad feright cars are
hauled by the cross-country electric
lines from the junction of the two roads
to communities many miles distant from
the steam cars.-Rural World.

Separators Growing in Favor.

One of the most surprising changes,
to the uninitiated. going on among
farmers, IS the rapidity which the farm
cream separator has grown in favor
with the best farmers. Formerly the
dairy business was sIavish because of
the absence Of natural conditions I'M
der which dairying could be done ad-
vantageously But since the introduc-
ton of the farm separator. many
farmers have allowed the heifers to
live and develop into cows. and more
are increasing their number of cows,
all of which will call for more cream
separators till they are as common as
wagons.-Thomas Wing, in Farm and

Carbon Wool.

In certain open coke furnaces where
air is admitted through openings and
the gas from the bituminous coal is
burned in the apparatus, carbon is de-
posted in the singular form of masses
of fine threads, These deposits, which
they call carbon wool, are found by two
French chemists to occur in geode-like
cavities in the coke, and the finer fila
ments are about 0.000S inch in diameter.
while the coarser ones range from 0.0012
to 0.0035 inch. the length being usually
about two inches. The filaments are
formed of rings, of which six were seen

PROTECTION FOR PLANTS.
A Simple System Which VIII Pay for

Single Week.

Market gardeners, and even the MAX

some wholesale means of protecting
newly set plants from the drying effects
Of sun or air. A cloudy day is usually
taken for transplanting, but the sun
may come out with scorching heat at
any moment, and much harm be done to
unshaded plants. Make a reel, as shown
in the accompanying illustration, and a

PERPETUAL LIGHT.
Lamp Has Been Invented which
AbsOrbs It's Power from
Radium.s

If an active product of radium is shut
up in a. closed space with other sub
stances and they are left together for a
certain time, it will be found that such
substances have acquired an activity
Analogous to that of radium itself. and
the smaller the space in which they are
shut up the greater the activity, states
the Philadelphia Record. :.
For example: Take two glass bulbs
connected by horizontal tube. Into
one of the bulbs pour a solution of chic
ride of radium; in the other phosphor-
escent sulphate of zinc. Close the bulbs
completely, so as to exclude the air.
When this combination is kept in the
dark it will be found, sooner or later,
that the sulphate of zine has become
luminous, as we'll as the glass in the ap-
paratus If the two bulbs are separated
the sulphate of zinc will continue lumin-
Gus for some time-perhaps for month
but gradually becoming weaker. II
the atmosphere be admitted to the bulb
the light disappears within few hours.
BY putting this experiment into appli-
cation the problem of what is called per
petuaI light has been solved. Lamps of
various forms and sizes are made: they
look like petroleum lamps, in which the
tube intended for the wick is filled with
sulphate of zinc. The manufacturer, by
means of tube, communicates the lumi-
nous power furnished by an infnitesimal
piece of radium, combined with sulphate
of zinc, and for more than a month that
lamp gives its light without the necessity
of touching it. When the light Wanes.
the lamp is charged again at very small
cost, as the radium does not consume.

RAISING DAIRY COWS.
In Order to Begin Right Calves Should
Be Selected Whose Grandmas
Had n Record.

If dairymen would depend upon rails
ing their dairy animals themselves the
result would be much more satisfac-
tory, as rule, than to buy from stock
men or spectators in haphazard
way any "pickups' that are offered
In order to begin right calves should
be selected whose grandams on both
sides had good record at the pail or
ehurn; then there will be a reasonable
hope that the calf will evolve into a
profitable cow
If. We are in the dairy business for
milk, then the attention is drawn to-
ward the animal which will turn her
food and energies into furnishing an
abundance of milk; but if the aim be
cream or butter, we do not care
whether the amount of milk be large
or small, so it yields proper amount
of butter fat.
But if the dairyman deems the rear
ing of calves only "side ISSUE" and,
as result, gives only Indifferent
treatment, he might as well buy his
own cows, for a stunted calf is pitt
able object, and will never fulfil its
destiny, no matter what it's after treat
ment may be.
Extravaganza in the feeding of the
calf is -parsimoniousness
never. Extravagant feeding-it would
be so called by many-means milk
fresh from the cow or new milk at
least three weeks after the birth of the
calf; and the calf that is not worth
what new milk it can consume during
the first few weeks of its life is not
worth the raising Let me emphasize
that the first weeks of the calf's exist
ence determine it's value later on
