Professor Hills spoke Of the fact
that 1t is being found, as one of the
results of scientific research, that less
protein is required in the compound
ing of feeding rations for milch cows
than had hitherto been considered nee
essary. AS protein is an expensive in
gredient in feed formulas this con-
cluson will lead to a reduction in cost
and hence be of more or less value to
farmers.
And here IL might be well TO add
that this matter might become more
slmplified and helpful in the growing
OF such crops on the farm as contain
a large percentage Of protein, as the
clovers, particularly the alfalfa, where
this can be successfully grown. Peas
also are rich in this element and when
grown along with oats make excellent
feed for milk, either when fed green or
when made into hay, or allowed to
rpen for the grain.
When the corn crop with its wealth
of fat and heat-producing elements,
crop that is adapted to so large
portion of this country, viii greatly
assist in the farm grown products
With such resources it is possible for
the farmer with the purchasing Of
such grain feeds as are necessary to
make up a ration that will produce
the most satisfactory results in the
dairy.-E. X. Towle, in American Cul
tivator

First select some good breed the one
best adapted to your locality, and most
to your liking. and then. establish a
system in caring for the herd and be
regular in carrying it out in every de-
tail.
Feed at the same time each day and
the same amount. Do not think that
you can feed three times one day and
feed the same amount at two feeds
the next and let the cows 90 without
the third feed and get the same result.
II does not matter so much how many
times day you feed as it does to feed
the same number of times each day.
Water as regularly as you feed, and do
not forget to card and brush the cows
as regularly as you feed and water
Even the cleaning of the stable and
all other work about the stable should
be done at the same time each day. as
the cows will soon learn to know what
time they are to be fed and watered
and worked around, and will expect
it, and become uneasy and restless if
the expected operation is delayed. but
will lie down peaceably and quiet af-
ter it is performed.
Cows should have their place in the
stable. and be tied in the saa-s --Anch-
ion each time. This will avoid muca
confusion in tieing them up, as each
COW will soon learn her place and take
it, and besides a tie-up full of cows
looks much better if the cows are ar
ranged in order according to size, be-
ing graded from one end of the tie-up
to the other
Again, it Is much more convenient to
feed lot of cows If they are in the
same place each time so that the feed
er knows just which one he is feeding,
even if he cannot see her. AS hardly
any two could require the same amount
this will be found a great convenience.
Feed regularly water regularly, groom
regularly, tie up regularly, but above
all, milk regularly.
A COW allowed to go any length of
time beyond her usual milking time be-
comes uneasy and restless to the det-
riment of both quantity and quality Of
milk.
A COW also becomes used to mixer
and should have the same one right
along.
The idea Of man. whom I recently
met although quite original and per-
haps having some good features, was,
l believe, wrong in the main. He let
his cows come into the stable and take
their place anywhere it happened, and
then at milking time he and his men
began at one end and MIXED the cows
as they came to them. This he said
he did because it was difficult to get
good mixers, and in this way he got
n chance to milk each COW himself
once in while and find out If she was
all right. He seemed to forget that the
poor mllker got the same chance to
poorly milk all the cows as well as
himself and thus damage the whole
herd
Establish a system about your stable
work and then abide by 1t to the near
est perfection possible and see if it
does not pay.-E. NJ. Pike, in Ameri-
cap Cttlfiuaf tor

Cost and Time Of Trip to a Star.


Let us suppose railway to have
been built between the earth and the
fixed star Centauri," said the lecturer.
BY a consideration of this railways
workings we can get some idea of the
enormous distance that intervenes be.
tween Centaurus and us.
Suppose that ] should decide to
take a trip on this new aerial line to
the fixed star. ask the ticket agent
what the fare is, and he answers:
The fare is very low, sir. 1t is

And what, at that rate, will the
through ticket one way cost?' / ask.

answers.

Numbering the Hairs.

The number Of individual hairs
that cover the human scalp is greatly
a matter of speculation; hut it is sup.
posed to vary according to the thick.
ness and color of the hair. A well.
known authority estimates that red.
haired people possess the fewest, and
places the average number at thirty
thousand. Blackhaired persons, on
the other hand, are said to run into
one hundred thousand; while the fair.
haired have the largest number of all
namely, one hundred and fifty-thou-
sand. These figures should form a
valuable index to those people whose
hair is on the down grade. An ex.
cessive falling off could be reckoned
at from 100 upwards, and by counting
the number of hairs they lose each
day some idea might be formed as to
how long they are likely to be before
they are overtaken with total bald
ness. Hairs which fall out, however,
are not always a total loss" They
often grow again from the root

One of the greatest arguments in IA
vor of individual separators is the pre-
vention of the spread of tuberculosis.
Pasteurized separator milk is better
and safer. because If there be any
milk from the cows having tuberculo-
sis, you can get the milk back Pasteur-
ized, and get it to the calves without
fear of infection.
If you use hand separator you will
not spread the disease among your
herd. advocate that every creamery
should heat the skim milk up TO 1S0
degrees. They do not quite empty the
cans at the creamery; l guarantee |
could go around and collect half a pint
from each can; little milk in the can
is good starter for the milk that is
put into the cans. But If you put i'm
the hot skim milk at $50 degrees. it
will sterilize also the little milk that is
left in the can. j. NJ. Monrad. in

mains and two miles of service pipes
are in use, while sixty-five street lamps
brilliantly illuminate the avenues OF

should have his pro rata " pride.
But the Government has not confined
its acceptance of acctylcne to this mill

the efficiency, superiority and econom-

stalled n number OF plants in Indian

It is matter for national congratu-

Testifying before the Senate Com
mittee at Washington, Interstate Com
merce Commissioner Prouty said I'm
discussing the proposition to give that
commission the power TO regulate rail-
way rates:
"I think the railways should makc
their own rates. I think ,hey should
be allowed to develop their own busi-
ness. have never advocated any
law, and am not now in favor Of any
law, which would put the rate making
power into the hands of any commits
sion or any court. While II may be
necessary to do that some time, while
that Is done in some States at the
present time, while Il is done In some
countries, / am opposed to 1t. The
railway rate is property. II is ail the
property that the railway has got. The
rest of its property is not good for
anything unless II can charge n rate.
Now it has always seemed TO me that
when rate was fixed, IL that rate was
an unreasonable rate, 1t deprives the
railroad company of its property pro
tanto. 1t is not necessary that you
should confscate the property of a
railroad; Il is not necessary that you
should say that it shall not earn three
per cent. or four per cent. When you
put in rate that Is inherently un-
reasonable, you have deprived that
company of its rights, Of its property,
and the Circuit Court of the United
States has jurisdiction under the four
teenth amendment TO restrain that.
have looked at these cases great
many times, and can only come to the
conclusion that a railroad company is
entitled to charge fair and reasonable
rate, and If any order Of commission,
If any statute of State Legislature,
takes away that rate, the fourteenth
amendment protects the railway COM
pany."

masticate my food properly.
"The result was that found myself
few years ago, afflicted with ailments
of the stomach and kidneys, which in
terfered seriously with my business.
"At last took the advice of friends
and began to eat GrapeNuts instead of
the heavy meats, etc, that had consti-
tuted my former diet
II found that ! was at once benefited
by the change, that was soon relieved
from the heartburn and the indigestion
that used TO follow my meals, that the
pains in my back from my kidney af-
fection had ceased, showing that those
organs had been healed, and that my
nerves, which used to be unsteady, and
my brain, which was slow and letharglc
from a heavy diet of meats and greasy
foods, had, not in moment, but grad
ually, and none the less surely, been
restored to normal efficiency. Now
every nerve is steady and my brain
and thinking faculties are quicker and
more acute than for years past.

Foods For MIX Making.

during an instructive lecture by
froi' ). IL. Hills at the late Vermont
Dairymen's convention in Montpelier,
the speaker declared that the feeding
standards are better understood by
farmers to-day than they used to be,
enabling them to select and compound
these rations of the grain feeds that
are best adapted to the production of
milk and cheese and IN the most eco
nomical manner.
This idea will also extend to the
growing of the different kinds OF fod-
der that are the best for the purpose
and then adapting the grain feeds to
these in right kind and proportion SO
as to produce best results.
This subject will require some inves-
tigation and study on the part of the
farmer, but much information can be
obtained from the bulletins OF the ex-
pertinent stations and the agricultu-
ral papers,
