Stimulating Appetite.

1t is astonishing TO what extent the
idea prevails that the use of stimulants
N the food of poultry is beneficial.
There are numerous people that al
Most constantly dope their fowls with
cayenne. pepper. 1t is a wonder that
the fowls do not quickly show the
effects of such unnatural methods or
feeling. A healthy bird has no more
need of such irritants in its food than
does a healthy person need big doses
OF red pepper. Moreover, when a bird
is fed red pepper the person that gives
1t does not usually consider the great
difference in size between a human
being and a ~barnyard fowl. with a
full grown man or woman a very small
amount of cayene pepper in the FOOD
goes a long ways, but with a bird that
weighs approximately five pounds he
dose should be correspondingly small.
Ii cayenne pepper is to be fed at all
1t should be fed in a scientific manner,
but such is not the usual mode or
feeding. When the appetite OF the
bird is dull it indicates hat the diges-
tive system of the fowl is out of con-
dition. Matters cannot be improved
by inducing the bird to take more
food to be turned into the already
sluggish digestive passages. Stimu-
lating the appetite at such a time may
result in increasing the complications
in the digestive tract.

Bran, Corn and Oats.

have found that a mixture OF bran,
ground corn and ground oats in equal
parts makes a very good soft food. |
simply place what / wish to use in a
big wooden pail l have and cover 1t
with boiling hot water, stirring it up.
l let the mixture remain for at least
six hours. By that time it is thor
oughly cooked, provided the pail has
been kept covered. l think it is un-
necessary to cook such food by put
ting it in a tank with fire beneath. We
have only to keep the vessel in which
is the mixture tightly covered to have
the latent heat in the pail do the work.
In feeding bran l get a large amount
OF bone and muscle-forming material
both lime and protein. By feeding
corn / get some of these and more
of the fat-making ingredients. By
feeding the oats l get a large quantity
OF easily digested food that is bal
anced about as perfectly as it can be.
There is also a stimulant called
"ayoin" in oats, which is supposed to
greatly increase the vigor of fowls and
farm animals using oats. l have OBJ
tainedN good results by feeding this
mixture once a day, as it keeps the
digestive organs of the fowls healthy
and in good condition.-Estella Har-

Bio Butter Contracts.

Some of the biggest butter con
tracts ever let are those given
by the national government for
the supplying of the navy. These
contracts are always valuable,
as the price is high. Not long ago
the government called for bids to fur
nish 100000 pounds of butter, which
is the supply required for a year.
There were but three bidders, and two
of them divided the contract between
them. One was a Chicago packing
firm and the other a Boston firm. 1t
is interesting to note that the price
paid was 80 cents a pound, which is a
very good price. That totals $3.50, 00O
for the aggregate amount. Of course
there are few firms that can bid in
a contest involving so much butter.
The price is not SO large as it looks,
as all kinds of requirements must be
fulfilled as to packing, timing, ship
ping, guaranteeing and the like.

Reuin Small in Sheen RAISING

Last week a city man applied to
the Farmers Review for advice as to
sheep raising. He had planned to
move on to some cheap land in Wis
consin and make sheep, as he ex-
pressed it, his money crop. He would
follow mixed farming as a sort Of side
issue. Evidently he expected to make
a heavy investment in sheep. hoping
for immediate and large financial re-
turns. We advised this man, as we
would advise every man that has had
no experience in sheep raising, to be-
gin small. 1t is. easy to lose money
in sheep raising, as it is in every other
line of agricultural effort. 1t is know
ing how that brings success. A man
must learn how to raise sheep as well
as to do any thing else, and the
smaller number he begins with the
less money he will lose in learning
how. This is not to discourage men
from going into sheep raising, which
has in it considerable possibilities, but
it is to deter them from entering upon
a course that may result in large
financial loss.

Milk Powder.

We are hearing a great deal
about milk powder and milk pow
der factories. One would think
that meo had stock to sell by the
number of notices appearing in the
press of the country relative to the
milk powders and the places where
they are made. 1t is just as well to go
a little slow in accepting as a great
boon the advent of the dried milk en-
terprises. The Dried Milk Company
of England has just sen out its first
report, which shows a deficit of $751;
500 in fifteen months. The people
that have invested in stock there are
said to feel very uncomfortable about
the safety of their investments.

larue Poultry Yards.

On the farm there is not a
great demand for poultry yards
during much of the year, yet
yards are almost always found
necessary at some time of year. If
the yards are to be used much in
summer they should be large ones
that the fowls may have an abund-
ance of room for exercise. The large
poultry yard does not become con
taminated with droppings to the ex-
tent that a small one does. This is
a great consideration in warm weather
and also in wet weather. The ground
in the crowded poultry yard is soon
worked into a fine mud by the feet
of the fowls, while if the yard is
~abundantly large the ground will not
be broken up except Immediately
around the door and not there IL
gravel is placed to extend a few yards
from the entrance.

Roostinu Closets.

Roasting closets are a new
thing in the poultry world, but
they are doubtless of value. One
of the greatest causes of colds in fowls
has been drafts that have fallen on
the birds when they were sleeping.
Roasting closets can be made of al
most any material including canvas.
BY them the fowls can be kept free
from drafts, while the air in the poul-
try house is disable for breathing. We
would like to hear from readers OF
the Farmers Review that have given
this arrangement a trial. 1t is worthy
the careful consideration of our sub.
scribers that have ventilators in the
tops of their houses. which are as
samed to be a cause of some OF the
troubles we have had in the past.

keepino Lice Out,


1t is entirely possible to keep lice
out of the poultry yard, just as it is
possible to keep out poultry diseases.
| am aware that the lice are SO com
mon that it is taken for granted that
they must be in evidence, but l know
now from my own experience that
neither lice nor mites are necessary,
provided Of course that no fowls are
brought into the flock from other
sources.
Hhave kept out lice and mites for
years, but my flock is a small one.
But l know of a flock of over 600
hens where no lice or mites are to
be found. They take great precau-
lions to keep out birds that might
bring them in. 1t pays better to get
along without some birds rather than
have lice introduced into the flock.

Army Horses.

The demand for horses for army use
is growing and the military authorities
seem to find it exceedingly difficult
to get horses that come up to
the requirements. 1t is probable
that If good horses for army use we're
abundant the standard would be still
higher. The standard is kept where
it is because of the difficulty the buy
ers would have If it were made higher
than it is. In time we will probably
get around to having almost a breed
of army horses. 1t is evident that the
trouble in securing the right kind of
horses comes from the fact that they
have to be selected from different
breeds or no breeds.

Points on B~uttermaking.

There are a number of points that
should be learned by the makers OF
farm butter, some of which points are
overlooked quite generally. One Oh
these is the washing of the buttermilk
out of the butter so that the butter Will
not quickly become rancid. Rancidity
Is caused by the breaking down OF the
fat into the fatty acid-butyric acid.
This is done by the presence OF bac'
terra that develop best if the casein
of the milk or some of it is left in.
The less the milk is washed the more
likely is there to be food left in the
butter for the use of the bacteria.
Therefore good washing is necessary
Another factor in the making OF but
ter is the ripening of the cream, which
should be even and not uneven. n
usual way on the farm is to keep
Swimming during the whole week, put
ting all into n lot. On the last Gay,
the day of churning, the milk is some
times skinned directly into the churn
and of course it has not ripened at all.
Then we have in that churning cream
that has been ripening for six days
and cream that has not been ripenlng
for n day. The loss Of fat in the
buttermilk is necessarily great. Cream
should be ripened for about one day
II the temperature is high, and two
days II the temperature is low. IL
will thus be seen that when some
cream is a week old and some an
hour old there is a very difficult prob
lem before us. 1t is extremely doubt
full if good butter can be made from
cream that is a week old.
The water supply for the washing OF
the butter is a most important point,
as a good deal of the water hat is
used is impure, having in it vegetable
matter. We have noticed that a great
many farm wells are SO situated that
they cannot help being polluted, and
the water from such wells is often
used in the making of butter. Again
and again it has been demonstrated
that the o~ff-iavors appearing in butter
have come from germs in the water
with which the butter was washed aud
with which the churn was washed out
before the cream was put in.
Churn at as low a temperature as
possible, as it has been demonstrated
that the lower the temperature the
better the quality Of the butter. AT
sixty degrees very little casein will
be incorporated with the milk. while
at eighty degrees a great deal of the
curd will be incorporated, and this
will result in the development Of a
cheesy flavor in a few days, if the but
ter is not kept below the freezing
point. In some creameries the churn'
ing is done at fifty degrees, but there
they have steam power to do the
c%hurning. OF course the lower the
temperature the harder will it be to
bring the butter, and if the cream is
at fifty degrees it may take so much
time to bring the butter that the farm,
er or the farmers wife may think the
increase of quality will hardly pay
for the extra work. This is generally
true in the making of butter on the
farm. If the butter is all to be used
in the family it may perhaps not make
much difference whether the tempera
ture is high or low.

@. Do physicians recognize this2
A.. Yes. The first question your doctor asks
youis "are you constipatedy" That's the secret.
@. Can 1t be cured?
A. Yes, with proper treatment. The common
error is to resort TO physics, such as pills, salts,
