have beer brought to our notice
the details connected with per-
IONS becoming lost in the noun
tain forests of Idaho county. The
News wishes to inaugurate move
ment that has for its object the
placing of sign boards or posts at
the forks of roads, trails and
creeks, and giving names, location
of nearest camps and distances
therefrom. We believe this sug-
gestion will meet with approval by
all, and trnst that from now on
attention will be paid to the plac-
ing of sign boards wherever they
are needed. Only a few minutes
are required to do this. If board
is not available then a blaze can be
cut on a tree and the directions
written. A little effort by each
may mean the saving of someone's

BUILDING UP a FLOCK.


Success Depends on Using Best Males
Of the breed Desired.
Some years ago I purchased Z dock

Michigan in American Agriculturist.
For a time their wool weight made
them profitable, but heavy woods de-
clined, and their mutton carcasses werc
not ideal. Besides they seldom had
two lambs. bought a thoroughbred
6outhd0wn ram and built up a new
flock from him, closing the old dock ont
by degrees. This made good advance
at minimum expense.
I soon had hardy flock Of heavy
mutton sheep, usually raising twins,
with wool lighter, but bringing more
per pound. l desired to attain three
points-large, marketable fleece of
good weight (the belly Of the South
down was still rather bare), prolific
breeders and lambs which matured
early, but were of good size withal.
I looked about and finally chose the

According to Professor Stewart, the
following is the explanation why cows
sometimes hold up or keep back their
milk, says American Cultivator: The
production Of milk is due to a nervous
action by which the glandular substance
Of the udder is broken down into milk
whenever the COW is Influenced by suf-
ficient excitement Of the right kind.
1t depends upon the structure and
function of the udder just as much as
the sections Of other glands do which
we know are wholly subject to a set Of
nerves controlling this distinct func-
ton. The udder Is not mere vessel
for holding milk that is supposed to be
secreted continually and gathers In the
udder, as one may suppose constant
dripping Of any fluid would ill any
other receptacle. On the contrary, 1t
Is a gland made up Of cellular sub
stance which grows by separation
(from the blood Of the matter required.
When 1t has attained maturity or
when the necessary nervous action oc-
ours 1t breaks down into a special
prOduct-milk.
Several experiments have been made
with the udders of cows In milking con-
dition that have been slaughtered, and
an examination has been recorded Of
the udder of a COW accidentally killed
on the railroad when going home to be
MIXED when she would have given the
usual ten quarts. The microscope
showed the minute globules of the It's
sue swollen and distended, but the I'D
der contained practically no milk ex-
cept very small quantity that drained
from the divided tissue when cut
across.
We perceive that this function Of the
COW is wholly nervous in Its action, as
indeed every other function of the anil
NAL Is, and If the due nervous excite
ment Is absent there Is no functional
action. 1t Is wholly due to the right
influence ON the nerves that the milk ID
produced and flows from every ulti-
mate globule of the udder down
through all the ducts, small and great.
to the teat. Then. IL all goes well and
the COW is in her natural. easily excit.
ed, nervous condition, as soon as the
mixer begins to touch the teats the
COW let's down the milk-that is, she
does not exert herself to oppose the
action Of the nerves Of the mammary
glands.

Battleshlp Idaho.

The battleship Idaho, now under
at the Cramps ship
building yards at Philadelphia,
Pa, according to officials of the
bureau of navigation and construc-
ton, will be launched some time
in May or June next. The battle
ship was 1922 per cent completed
on November l, and at the present
rate of constr uction, which is about
three per cent per month, should
be ready for active service about
September, 1906. She will be one
of the largest battleships flying
Uncle Sans flag, and when this
ship is commissioned the American
navy will have on its roster twenty
four battleships OF the first class.
There is already some talk among
The westerners in Washington to
give the command of the Idaho to
some western naval officer.

The necessity Of a continual water
supply for sheep is a much contr0vert-
ed point. says Farm and Live Stock
Journal. We are unable to find any
definite and decisive data ON the ques-
ton and think it would make a good
topic for our experiment stations.
There are many farmers who would
like to know whether the pasturing Of
sheep at any or all seasons Of the year
In a lot where water Is not accessible
Is a losing practice. We believe that
experiments would prove that it Is, as
we can see no reason why they are SO
different from other stock as not to re-
pay attention to their water supply.

BEEF CATTLE

During the winter of 1904 an interest
ing experiment with sixty head of beef
cattle was conducted at the expert
ment station. The twenty cattle fed ST.
lage made an average gain Of LAG
pounds per head per day. the twenty
cattle fed timothy hay ITO pounds per
head per day and the twenty cattle fed
shredded corn slower O.97 pound per
head per day. There was thus differ
ence of one-third to one-half pound
Of gain per head per day In favor of
the silage fed cattle. The silage fed
cattle finished OF the best and showed
more quality than the others and in
any discriminating market would have
brought a considerably higher price.
The strong prejudice against using ST.
lage for the winter feeding Of beef cat
tie Is hard to understand, for it has
been fully demonstrated that silage
fed cattle will kill out quite as well as
the dry fed cattle, and the meat is, gen.
orally speaking. Of superior quality.
Whereas the silage was all eaten up,
1875 of the slower and 4.18 per cent of
the hay was wasted.-Bulletin Virgin
