How to Keep Milk Sweet.

w. j. Frazer. of the Illinois Exper-
iment Station gives these suggestions
in regard to securing milk from your
cows that will keep sweet for re-
markable length of time:
Keep the cows clean and do not
compel or allow them to wade and
live in filth. This means clean Yards
and clean, well bedded stalls. Every
thing short of this is absolutely re-
pulsive and should not be tolerated
any longer in civilized community.
Otop the filthy habit known as wet
ting the teats. by which is meant the
drawing of little milk into the hand
with which to wet the teats before
and during milking. leaving the ex-
cess of filthy milk in the pail
Wash all utensils clean by first
using lukewarm water, afterward
washing in warm water and rinsing
in an abundance of boiling water,
then exposing until the next using, in
direct sunlight. which is good ster-
ilizer.
Use milk pals. cans. etc. for no
other purpose but to hold milk
Keep out of these utensils all sour
or tainted milk. even after they have
been used for the day. Using them
for this purpose at any time infects
them so badly that no amount of
washing is likely to clean them. Bac-
terra are invisible, and millions can
find lodging in the thin film of mois-
ture that remains after dishes are
"carently clean.

rabbits and Farm Crops.

Too many nf the so-called game
laws are made for the benefit of the
sportsman rather than the preserVa-
ton of insectiyorous birds or bene-
fetal animals. We have heretofore
spoken of the protection OF rabbits
iIh many States. There is no possible
reason for the protection OF these
pests of the farm. except to give
sport to the idle fellows who follow
their beagles over the farmers land
without any regard for the farmer or
his crops. No close season is need
ed for rabbits, for no matter when
or how they are hunted they will in
crease more than is desirable to the
farmer. And now we hear that ON
Long Island they are having a pest
OF jack rabbits, which are far worse
than our common hare. Sportsmen
turned loose there a large number of
these long cared gentry and they
have increased to such an extent that
the crops of the truck farmers have
suffered greatly. We do not believe
that IL the matter was carried to the
higher courts that any farmer could
be fined for shooting any wild animal
that is a pest to his crops at any
time he chooses to do so. No one
has a right for mere sport to turn
out a lot OF animals that prey on the
farmers crops, and every farmer has
the natural right to protect his farm
and crops from trespass by wild ami
mails or by the idle fellows that hunt
them. All that is needed is for the
farmers to unite in testing the ridic-
ulous game laws that are made solely
for the sportsmen. AS 1t Is now. the
fruit grower must stand by and let
the robins eat his cherries and the
jack rabbits eat his garden truck,
and under the game laws he cannot
shoot them. The law guarantees
every man peaceable possession of
MS lands, and these are serious tres
passes, and we believe that under
any sensible bill OF rights the farmer
has the right to protect his land

Advice For Poultry Growers.

Use kerosene to rid the hen-house
of lice. Wash the roosts with it.
Apply it with brush. as you would
paint, to all cracks and corners where
lice would be likely to lurk. Use it
literally and frequently. Act on the
principle that prevention Is better
than cure.
Persian insect powder, II you can
get the fresh article. is the best rem
edy fot lice on fowls. 1t is harmless
to the fowl. but death to the insect.
Old powder is generally worthless.
Catch the hen and dust il freely
among her feathers and under her
wings.
Feed soft mash in the morning.
The hens seem to relish it better then
than at any other time during the
day. Make it of two parts bran. one
part middlings. one part cornmeal,
one part crushed oats. Add a pinch
of salt and one of cayenne pepper
Meat can be used to advantage
about three times a week. Run it
through a sausage grinder. Use
about a pound each time to dozen
hens, 1t will stimulate them TO lay
ing, as a general thing. and will
prove welcome addition to their
usual diet, which ought to be varied
occasionally. A fowls appetite is
sharpened and benefited By change
of food, now and then. though the
regular bill OF fare should be made
up largely of corn. oats, wheat and
barley 1t pays to humor hens
whims, somewhat, when eggs are
bringing a big price and fresh caes
are hard to get.--Outing Magazine.

Practical Advice ON Horse Feeding.

Ifuctlcal ADVICE on Horse Feeding.
A noted French horsemau gives
the following in an agricultural jour
nal of Paris regarding the proper
feeding of horses:
Three meals are necessary and
sufficient, with an interval of four or
five hours between to keep a horse in
good condition. Oats take at least
two hours to digest; hay takes three
hours. and because 1t takes so long
1t should be given when the days
work is over. The evening meal
should be full meal. the animal be-
ing then at rest and able to digest its
food at leisure. There should be an
interval of half an hour between the
return of the horse to the stable and
his getting his evening meal.
TOO much food at meal or too
long abstinence between meals. fol.
lowed by voracious feeding. is condu.
Give to collie and indigestion. Irregu
larly fed he is given to showing his
impatience by letting his hoofs play
about the woodwork of his stall. Civ.
ing 'refreshers' at odd times is also
bad. Remember that both stomach
and bladder should never be loaded
in work time, whether light or heavy
work il done. A horse, therefore,
should not be ridden or driven imme,
diately after a meal. on the same
principle that 1t ought not TO be fed
sooner than half an hour after work
Is over. Between one end of the
year and another horse consumes
an amount of dry, heating food which
calls for special regime to neutral
ize the excessive proteid consumption
that has taken place. Thus In au-
tumn ration of carrots given before
the evening meal is good, and SO in
spring. at the fall OF the winter coat.
a little grain meal Is isbeneficial, mixed
with hay and oats. for the evening
meal. Another maxim much disre-
garded In practice is that the horse
should be watered long enough be-
fore being put to work, and then
sparinglyy
