Dairy Wisdom

Regularity in feeding and milking
counts a great deal toward success.
To get best results be systematic in
your work. s
Use a milk cooler, but never use it
In impure air.
A COW tail holder is humane and
saves lot of profanity.
Good milk depends on something
more than the mixer and the COW.
You harvest corn and wheat once
year. You harvest milk twice day.
The points that make COW a good
mixer make her poor beef animal.
You can't grind corn and get flour.
Neither can you feed straw and get
butter.
Your barn yard is not purely place
for storing manure-not if you want
the best milk.
A safe rule, says Kimball's Dairy
Farmer, Is never to sell any milk you
would be unwilling to use on your
own table.
Cleanliness is requisite for the pro-
duction of a good grade of milk. You
can't keep milk sweet if you allow
filth to get into it. Filth means bad
milk, bad cream and bad butter. Be
ware of filth. Keep the cows clean.
Skim milk is the best food for grow
ing pigs. Every particle of skim milk
should be utilized to turn the wastes
into pork.
If You cannot afford to buy a herd
of pure bred cattle you can buy good
bull and grade up your herd. Pedigree
doesn't make production, and produc-
ton is what most of US are after. 1t
wouldn't be altogether profitable for
all of us to be breeders of pure bred
stock, but we could all increase the
produciveness of our herds to great
advantage. \ good dairy bull will ac-
conplish that end more rapidly than
many suppose.
The care of the COW just after calv-
ing determines to large degree her fu-
ture profit as a mixer If she is not
at once brought up to high state of
milk production the chances are she
cannot be during that period of lacta-
ton. If COW is permitted to fall In
her milk production, says the Farmers
Advocate, it is next to impossible to
get her back to her former yield.

these small people are formed of half

good plan to paste white paper on to
the back Of the scraps Of material

THE SWiNEHERD

Large herds of swine should be d.
vided so that not more than few doz-
en- animals are kept together.
Each SOW should have a separate pen
for herself and her pigs.
The boar should not be permitted to
run with the herd.
The pens, troughs and all the sur
roundings Of the hog should not only
be cleaned frequently, but disinfected.
The food for swine should be selected
carefully.
Do not feed corn exclusively and be
careful to supply enough green food in
the winter time.
Sorghum is especially recommended
as a winter food.
Always heat the hogs food in cold
weather for the animals comfort and
well being.
Get out Of your head that anything
is good enough for the pig. Remem
Der, rather, that nothing is too good for
the pig.-Farmers Advocate.
Preventing Disease.
The heavy losses in hogs are largely
due to transmissible diseases. The Or
ganisms that produce such diseases en-
ter the system In the feed and air.
Muddy or dusty yards, crowded condi-
tions and filthy floors or troughs are
responsible for most of the cholera and
swine plague. Young hogs are more
susceptible than mature animals. Nat
urally they need better care. The pens
and yards should not be neglected be-
cause there is pasture. Keep them
we'll drained and disinfected. Use
whitewash freely about the houses and
fences. Plow the unused lots and SOW
rape, oats or cowpeas. Spray the
house, feeding floors and troughs thor
oughly with disinfectant every two
or three weeks. Tar disinfectants are
most convenient. They should be used
in not less than per cent water So
luton. Spray or dip the hogs occa-
sionally in a 1 per cent water solution.
Young hogs should not be given crowd
ed quarters. Provide diet that will
keep them healthy and help them to
resist disease. Keeping the hogs un-
der the best sanitary conditions and
using every precaution to prevent in
fection from the outside are the most
satisfactory methods of avoiding loss
from transmissible diseases. r. A.
Craig, Purdue University Experiment
Station.
Hog Notes.
Be careful in selecting your new
boar.
Mature sows, bred to good boars, in
sure strong, healthy pigs.
Holding fat hogs for higher mar
ket is oftentimes courting cholera
Don't think that the hog has cholera
just because he is off feed for a day.
Plenty of sunlight in the hog house
from now until next June is necessary.
You may have favorite strain, but
don't stick to it until it has degeH-
Grated.
Give the hogpen a rest. Move the
hogs to another pen or to the pasture.
Keep the pens and yards sanitary,
but don't stop with that. Keep the
hogs digestion in prime order.
The construction of the pig trough
may seem like a small thing, says
Kimball's Dairy Farmer, but there's
millions in it for the pigs.

Strive For the Best.

The essential requisites for success
full rearing of calves are high ideal
of what is wanted-a good place to
foundation to work upon, careful, reg
ular, liberal feeding; attention to all
details, keeping the calves healthy, a
love for the work and the desire to
make each calf develop and prove to
be a little better than its predecessors.
No branch of dairying offers so great
possibility for improvement and sat
isfaction to the owner as a we'll bred
bunch of dairy type heifer calves, and
none will prove more remunerative.
Let us set our mark high and strive for
the best.-H. o. Daniels in New Eng
land Homestead.

Care of Winter Lambs.

The winter lamb is an unnatural
product, born under the most adverse
conditions, when the days are growing
colder, when the grass is frosted and
scared. 1t is necessary to resort to
artificial feeds and to apartments in
side the building where economy of
production requires duplicate of sum-
mer conditions as nearly as possible.
The barn must be perfectly dry, we'll
lighted and thoroughly ventilated.
Without these conditions we can nev-
er hope for the greatest degree of sue
cess in rearing and fattenting lambs in
D. Ward, New York.
