Economic Dairy Feeding.
ChaS. d. Woods.

Economic dairy feeding usually
means successful dairy feeding. The
three elements in the problem ar
ranged in the order of their import
ance are the feeder, the cow, the feed.
The successful feeder of dairy stock
must have enlightened understanding.
in addition to enthusiasm and love for
his calling. To be a successful breed
er and feeder a man must be ready to
take all pains to know the truth re-
garding his business and be ready to
govern himself accordingly whether
he finds the facts as he would like
them or not A good dairy COW must
be bred for production. Here as else
where blood tells. From small be-
ginnings with care in breeding and by
rigorous selection a family of COWS Of
high production can be evolved that
will pay their owners we'll for the time
and care bestowed.
Feed is a fundamental requisite of
production. Life is wonderful trans
former; but it is not a creator. Vital
force is merely different manifesto

needs of maintaining the animal body

For example, wheat, bran and clover
carry about the same percentage of
protein, but nearly 8 of the wheat
protein is digestible and less than Z
of the clover protein
Many conditions affect the digesti-
bility of feeding stuffs. Usually be-
cause of loss of leaves in curing, green
folders are better digested than cured
Other things being equal the more
rapid the curing the more digestible
will the hay be, because it will in
volve less handling and consequent
less loss of the leaves which are the
more digestible part. In general the
percentages of protein, fat and nitro
gen-free extract decrease and the per-
centages of fiber increase with the age
of the plant; also, as rule, with added

THE DAIRY
The Importance of Dairying.

The uniformed person fails to ap-
preciate the magnitude and Importance
of the dairy interests of the country.
This perhaps is due to the fact that
the growth of the business of dairying
has been of such phenomenal char
acter that public thought has failed to
keep pace with it, and thus today we
find that the average individual is I'M
able to realize to what a vast extent
the business has grown and what it
means to the country as a whole.
A little over a decade ago, grain
raising was about the only source of
revenue for our farmers. The pros
perity of an agricultural community
depends almost entirely upon the pros
perity of the soil tillers, and anything
which aids in placing money in the
pockets of the farmers indirectly pro-
notes prosperity in all lines OF trade.
We are all familiar with the history
of those days when the farmer depend
ed almost entirely upon his grain
crops to pay off the mortgage on the
homestead, clothe and sustain the wife
and babies, and meet the expense OF
operating the farm. Then he depend
ed solely on the elements to bring him
forth harvest of dollars, and if these
same elements decided against him
not only was he and his family called
upon to suffer, but business interests
in general were greatly harassed. In
those days of uncertainty the sent1-
ment toward farm life was not as COM
plimentary as we find it at the present
time. Then the occupation OF the
farmer was looked upon as one of the
lower walks of life; then it was calcu-
lated that if a man was unable to
make a success of any other line OF
business he must necessarily take up
farming as a vocation, where he was
popularity supposed to have equal
chances with his neighbor for success.
Then. if a boy was not particularly
bright it was conceded that he must
be farmer, where brain and intellect
were not in demand.
Now all this is changed and the life
of the farmer is no longer looked down
upon with disdain. This wonderful
change of sentiment in the past few
years has been in a large measure due
to the present prosperity and happy
surroundings of the agriculturlsts or
the country. The adoption of dairy
ing and stock raising by the farmers OF
the country has eliminated many or
the uncertainties of results to be Sc
cured, and we find the dairy farmer
always prospecting, even under cOndl-

tons which would prove disastrous to
the grain farmer.
The adoption of dairying has en-
HANGED the value of our land and
erected fine homes for our farmers,
and we find the agriculturist of today
enjoying life with his family and I'M
harassed by the mortgage on the farm
Likewise, the business man is no long
er worrying over his accounts with the
farmer and all lines of business en-
joy degree of prosperity impossible
without the prosperity of the farmers
of the country.
Yes. darying has revolutionized the
business interests of the middle west,
and as the business continues to de-
velop we may expect to view the con-
tinued growth and enlargement OF all
other business interests.
The growth of dairying has been al
most phenomenal, yet we believe that
we are just at the open door, as it
were. With the thousands, yea mil
lions of acres of agricultural land es-
pecially adapted to dairying, as yet
wholly undeveloped, we may reason.
ably expect even greater growth than
has been accomplished. The star of

and in the light of what has been
accomplished there is no tangible rea-
son why it should not continue to rise
until it shall send it's rays of pros
perity into farming in all sections of
the country.
Tt will be our purpose along this line
to contribute our best efforts toward
outlining the practical side of dairy

seasonable articles upon all lines OF
dairy work. To the farmer who has
not already been converted to dairying
we would say, study the history of
your fellow agriculturist who has
adopted dairying and allow your judg
ment to dictate your future course.
To the farmer who is already making
a business of keeping COWS, we would
say, study your business as bust
ness man should and adopt those
methods which will produce only the
best results. What we have accom-
plished by the use of ordinary methods
is but evidence of what can be &C
complished by adopting those methods
which have proven so valuable else
where. If the man who is able to
make two blades of grass grow where
one grew before, the dairyman who is
able to make a COW give two pounds OF
milk where only one was produced be-
fore is even more than prophet. Re
cent Investigations have proven that it
is not only possible, but practical, to
do this We hope that every dairy
farmer will avail himself of the in
formation necessary for putting into
practice these methods which will pro-
duce the two pounds of milk intsead

greatest capacity or rather to her limit
of profitable production.
Feeding standards are of Importance
but with the most perfect knowledge
of the laws of nutrition, it will hardly
be possible to state accurate physiO-
logical standars. At the best such a
standard will only be an average esti-
mate and not an unvarying formula.
The formula for profitable feeding
will always vary with conditions and
will very seldom coincide with physi-
logical standards. At the best such a
physiological action of the nutrients
but the cost of the feed and the value
of the product have to be taken into
account The nutritive value of a
food depends upon it's digestibility as
we'll as upon it's chemical composition.

GOLD OUTPUT VAST
CONTINUES TO INCREASE IN ALL
MINING DISTRICTS
California, Colorado, Nevada, Alaska
and Arizona Add to Quantity OF
Yellow Metal and Value Of Silver Is
Raised

Washington, Nov. 26.-A report is
sued by the geological survey says
that the production Of gold in the
United States during 1904 amounted
to 3,910,729 fine ounces, valued at $780,
835. GAS. This represents an increase
OF $S,243,984 over the production OF
1903. The largest previous autput, In
1902. amounted to $80,000.000
Silver Lays Behind
The production of silver in 1904
amounted to 55,999,861 fine ounces,
valued at s32,035,37S. This represents
an increase OF 1,699,S64 ounces over
the production of 1903 and an increase
in value of $2,713,378. The record
output of silver in 1892, amounting to
63,500,000 fine ounces, the report says,
has not been reached in late years,
nor has the commercial value attained
the figures of that year, which
amounted to $32, 1000
The principal sources OF the increase
in the gold production compared with
that OF 1903, the report says, are easily
traceable Colorado added nearly
$2,000,000 to its production OF 1903,
most of this amount coming from
the mines of Cripple Creek. Nevada's
output increased about the same
amount, chiefly by reason of the
phenomenal yields of the Goldfield
mines.
California Leads
The greatest progress Is reported in
California, whose production exceeds
that of 1903 by $2,300,000, the increase
being caused partly by strong de-
velopment of the quartz mining in
dustry and to less degree by the ac-
tivity of the dredgers. Alaska and
Arizona show increased yields,
amounting respectively to $476,S93
and 74S,708. A number of states
show small increases, while Utah,
Montana and Washington have less
gold to their credit in 1904 than in
1903.
The increase of value in the produc-
ton of silver of $2,713,37S is some
what distributed among the various
states and territories, but is to some
extent due to the better price of sill
yer obtained. Colorado leads with an
increase of $970,320. California
Idaho, Montana, Nevada and Utah
also added considerable value to their
silver production.

This cold is dilly-dallied with, either

continues.
Then another cold 10 caught and .
cough develops. Cough syrups are NJ
sorted to, but they give only temporary
relief.
BY and by the patient gets tired Of
taking medicines and cough syrups and
gives up in despair.
The cold continues to develop and the
cough grows worse.
Then the doctor Is called in, only to
discover that the patient il in the first
stages of consumption.
1t was just in this way that Miss
Powell, of Aurora, Ind, became sick.
She caught cold, and not considering
it serious, neglected it, thinking as
many others do, thatitw would "wcaro off,"
However, it chung to her tensciously,
and in two weeks she found her health
in serious condition.
Fortunately, Peruna had been brought
to her notice, and she took course OF
this remedy before 1t was too late.
| In week the cough and cold were
broken, and three weeks treatment
completely restored her to health. 3
This is what Peruna is doing all the
while. Not day, and probably not an
hour passes in which some one does not
have similar experience with Peruna.
Cure the Slight Colds and Avoid
Consumption.
The first step toward consumption IL
a cold. The nextstep is failure to cure
it promptly. The third step is the de-
velopment of catarrh, which gradually
becomes chronic. The fourth step, tho
catarrh begins to spread from the head
to the throat, then to the bronchial
tubes, and finally into the lungs. 1t 10
then consumption in the first stage.
At any time during the progress OF ca
tsrrh, from the first onset Of the cold to
its final settlement in the lungs, Peruna
can be relied upon to stop the disease.
If you have taken cold, buy Peruna

ginning will do more good than half
dozen bottles after the catarrh has
fastened itself on the lungs.
