FEEDING ENsILAGE.

4 correspondent writes: This is
MY third year feeding ensilage and l
would not know how to get my stock
through the winter without it. Ny
silo is II feet in diameter and 81 feet
deep. Seven feet of this is pit, going
down as deep as the basement floor of
my barn. 1t is stave silo. made of
2X6 white pine and 4x6 oak ribs to
run rods through. l use an horse
power gasoline engine and a 16-inch
cutter. with So foot carrier to ele-
vate the silage. We keep four teams
hauling in and another cutting with a
corn harvester. 1t usually takes about
five days to fill the silo. and We 20
back two or three times to fill it up
after it has settled. We will put away
about 10 acres Of very thickly drill
corn this year. The first year filled
my silo it was new. the machinery
was new, and l was in a hurry to
start. found that l filled my silo
that year with corn that was too
green. In my experience l find that
the time to do the filling in order to

TUBERCULOSIS IN SWINE.

Judging from the number of in
quiries received about tuberculosis
swine and also from the numbers that
are daily condemned at the packing
houses. this disease is becoming as
prevalent among swine as among cat
tie. tuberculosis among swine was
not thought of few years ago. Not
that the disease did not exist, but
rather its presence was less recog-
nized than now. The trouble Is doubt
less caused by unsanitary conditions
as in the case Of cattle. and as with
cattle. the tendencies to it are doubt
less transmitted. However, it is not
so prevalent rs to cause great alarm.
But the fact should be recognized that
there Is such disease. and that it
Is Increased by unsanitary conditions.
AS live stock multiplies the tendencies
to disease increase. and as disease in
creases. profits are correspondingly
reduced. 1t is of the first moment,
therefore. that swine should be kept
under those conditions of sanitation
that are likely to keep them in health
and vigor. The influences that tend
to weaken vigor are such as breeding
from immature sows. too close breed
ing. feeding an unbalanced ration and
unsanitary conditions generally, such
as filthy wallows. bad ventilation in
their pens and confinement in too
close quarters

TAKING CARE OF MACHINERY.

l notice that you like to hear from
farmers in regard to various lines
of farm work, writes a friend. would
like to say something in regard to
taking care Of farm machinery. Ma
chinery of all kinds should be kept
under cover when not in use. The
average of life of a self-binder is not
more than five years and in many
cases not as long as that When some
men get new binder they hitch on
to it at harvest time and perhaps do
not oil it more than twice day, pay.
ing no attention to the way the ma
chine is running and neglecting to
see that the burrs are tight. They do
not notice whether or not the machine
IS running smoothly or whether some
of the parts are heating. They seem
to think that as long as the bundles
come out properly everything is all
right. l have taken new Champion
binder and run the same machine 16
years, and have paid out practically
nothing for repairs. cutting 1875 acres
each year. The life of the machine
depends almost entirely on the way in
which 1t is taken care of. The sam.
is true of other kinds of farm ma
chinery. Some men will unhitch from
the harvester at the side of the field,
not even taking time to remove the
aprons from the machine. Next seas
on they will hitch on to it and find
the aprons full of holes and partly
rotten. In about three years It will
be necessary to get new ones. l could
talk along this line for a considerable
time, but the lesson is tooObvious to
need reiteration. Take good care of
farm machinery.

WASTED FERTILITY.

Once again we call attention to this
matter Of wasted fertility because o.
its importance.
Notwithstanding it's waste, 1t is evil
dent that change for the better is
more or less apparent in nearly ever,
quarter. Farm yard manure. which
in years gone by. was allowed to
waste or was carted of into some
slough or river. is now carefully pre-
served and spread over the fields. Yet
the evidences of waste In this respect
are still to be seen. The manure is
often being dumped into ravines,
drawn out and burned or allowed to
lie scattered over a wide area of the
farm yard until it has lost most Of its
value.
The waste of fertility in another
form Is also apparent. One can go
not far from cities IN the fall or early
spring without seeing the straw-pile
fires. Meadows and pastures are Of
ten burned over In the spring. This
may be necessary in some cases, but
as a rule, 1t is not only unnecessary
but very wasteful. The same thing
applies to the burning of wheat stub
BILE or corn stalks that have been par
TALLY worked over by hogs or cattle.
Humus is needed in every soil, but
nowhere does 1t give better returns
than where the rainfall is 30 light
that there is hardly enough moisture
left in the soil for the needs of the
growing crop. Don't waste the hui
mus. 1t is necessary to successful
farming.
Many of our farmers still hold to
the practice Of growing only grain
year after year. although the past few
years have brought about a marked
increase in the number of stock
farms throughout this section. Con-
tinued grain raising, without stock
without rotation and without keeping
the soil supplied with humus cannot
but end in disaster. To manage land
in this way is not farming. The pro
cess may make few men rich on new
lands. but If carried ON long enough
will make many men poor. II eastern
farmers tried to handle their lands
the way some of our western farmers
are doing they would have been out oil
the business long ago. As it is, they
are obliged to resort to the use Of
commercial fertilizers in order tc
raise ordinary crops. They have theil
forefathers to thank for this. for the,

! robbing that is now going on here

Metropolitan club at Washington drove
around to the first assistant secretary
of states office in the afternoon to
take Mr.. Bacon for ride behind a
spirited horse he had just purchased.

CARE OF HAND SEPARATOR
CREAM

The numerous butter contests that
are now being carried on at the vari-
GUS county and state fairs indicate
that large per cent of our farmers
who are using hand separators are
not giving their cream the care that
1t should receive With the rush OF
the falls work We are apt to neglect
the care of the separator or owing
to the scarcity of help We fail to take
the cream to the factory as often as
We should.
In looking over the score cards We
lind that one of the most common
criticisms of the judges, too old
cream causing bad flavor. The prac-
t1ce OF keeping cream for several days
at time or until it has become ex-
tremely sour has done much to arouse
the buttermakers opposition to the
introduction of the hand separator.
Cream that has received as good care
as is usually given to the whole milk
will make as good butter as where
the separating is done at the factory.
But the difficulty comes in that the
whole milk must be taken to the fac
tory at least four times week for the
reason that II 1t is kept longer it will
begin to sour and cannot be put
through the separator. while cream,
even though it becomes extremely
sour. even ropy and lumpy. can be
churned into butter.
Minnesota has the reputation OF
making the best butter that is manu.
featured, and this reputation is worth
millions of dollars to our producers.
This reputation has been the means
of bringing the dealers of fancy but
ter to our state and it behooves every
dairyman, every creameryman and
every buttermaker to do all that is
within his power to maintain this
euviable reputation. and the hand sep
arator patrons can only do their part

by keeping pace With the whole milk
patrons In delivering theiS cream to
the factories as often and In a. good
condition as the milk that is delivered
by the whole milk patrons.
We cannot give too much emphasis
in eXhorting our hand separator d.
irons to give the best possible care to
their separators. In fact, II as GOOD
cream is going to be produced from
the hand separator as from the fac
tory separator 1t must be cared for
and washed rs thoroughly as the fac
tory machine. The hand separator
should be washed after every skim
ming. not only rinsed out. but taken
apart and each piece that comes In
contact with the milk or cream should
be thoroughly washed. The cream
no essential NJ cleanliness in the pro-
duction of flrst-class butter. The Gov.
er OF the cream can should be left OF
and the cream thoroughly stirred two
or three times to permit the animal
heat to escape. Do not under any cir
cumstances mix the warm fresh cream
with the cream of the previous skim
ming. Before mixing thoroughly cool
and aerate. and again We repeat, take
this cream to the factory as often as
is customary in taking the whole milk
This will be before the cream has be-
gun to sour.
1t may seem strange to some of our
readers who are not familiar with the
science Of butter making that we
should recommend turning this cream
over to the butter maker before it has
begun to sour. Most farmers know
that cream must be soured before it
is churned. But here is where we
get the fine art of butter making. The
butter that brings premium Of one
or two cents pound must be made
from cream that has been given the
right species of sourness. 1t may b.
news to some of our readers. however.
it is we'll established practice among
our best butter makers. to give the
cream certain species of acidity, that
fs. they innoculate It with what they
term a culture, the same as the bread
maker uses yeast in making his
bread. The same principles are in
volved in the production of butter cul-
ture as are involved In the production
of this yeast used in making bread or
the cultures used in manufacturing
beer or vinegar.
The cream that has become sour be-
fore 1t reaches the creamery has pass
ed the stage that makes 1t impossible
to develop the proper acidity, even by
the most skillful butter maker. We
cannot be too careful in giving the
butter maker sweet cream.

When the Boy is Growing.


II the good housewife becomes the
possessor of a choice plant, she
watches 1t carefully. and not only
feeds and waters, but prunes and
bends the branches In the way that
will make it most beautiful to the eve.
The farmer does likewise with his fruit
trees and stock. Yet too often both
will let the boy, the best product IN
OF the farm, run wild, and come up in
his own wav without the little bend
ings and prunings which would mean
so much to him In later years.
Many little physical defects could be
entirely overcome in babyhood by q
thoughtful and careful mother. At
this time the little bones are very pill
able. and 1t is no difficult task to firm
~ press and rub each day the nose
which turns up and finally bring It to
a more desirable shape. The little
limbs. which too early have borne the
child's weight and become crooked,
may. be Strengthened II the mother is
persistent In her treatment.
The average child Is quite apt to be
guilty of pulling the hat or cap over
the ears, bringing them forward, in
stead OF tucking them under as they
should be. AS result, the ears grow
that way and an otherwise fine look
ing boy Is doomed to carry this de-
formity through life. A little observa-
ton and precaution at the right time
would have remedied 1t.
We have all observed with regret
the tendency among our growing boys
to stoop or be round-shouldered. 1t is
not always the admonition %
~straighten up," which carries tn,
remedy. Sometimes 1t is wiser to give
the muscles some exercise or work
which will overcome the difficulty.
Boys are sensitive about personal de-
fects, and will aim to be straight and
well-formed IL they have the proper
training.
Mothers. be more observing and
trust less to luck in the growth OF your
boys body. This is matter of great
responsibility. Do not fail to real
ize it.
Ed.-The above remarks apply to 50
many parents that we give 1t place IN
the H. and S. department, hoping
thereby to stimulate parents to the
necessity of performing their duty.
