Tiled Lands Best in All Seasons.

Tiled Lands Best in All Seasons.
In this locality there is but small
per cent of the land that needs drain
ing and what does need 1t has been
pretty well tiled. We have no trouble
about outlets, as almost every one can
furnish his own outlet. Sometimes,
where a slough or ravine extends
through two farms, an arrangement is
made by which the man owning the
upper section pays for part or all 81
the additional cost of putting larger
tile through his neighbours land than
would be needed IL not extending up
into his land. Various sizes of tile are
used for the ma:as. usually from five
to eight inches. depending, of course,
on length of drain and amount of wa.
ter to be carried off. There are no
obstacles to the perfect drainage OF
land here, and there is no doubt but
that great benefit would be derived
from putting in tile where 1t is now
thought not to be really necessary.
The most common depth at which tile
is laid is from three to four feet. We
have three good tile factories in this
county, so that farmers have been
mostly able to get and haul the tile
right from the mills to the farms.
The question of drainage Is no longer
an experiment, for it has been demon.
strated over and over that our tiled
lands are our best lands and surest FOR

GRAIN WEEVIlS,

The wheat bins of the farmer some
times contain grain weevils, which be-
come very destructive where grain is
to be used for -four making OF any
kind or for meal making. Where such
insects are numerous, about the only
way they can be gotten rid OF is by
the use of carbon-bisulphide. This can
be purchased of the druggist, or at
least the druggist can send to some
wholesale house for 1t. 1t can be ap.
piled to the bins by inserting piece
of gas pipe and allowing the chemical
to run to the bottom. No lamp should
be around when this is done, as this
chemical is very explosive in the pres
ence of fire. Also, as soon as the car.
bon is inserted the bin should be GOV.
cred tightly, so that the fumes may
penetrate every portion of the stored
grain rather than escape into the open
air,

The Young Cow.

The young COW is an unknown guam
tity. No man living can tell the first
year whether COW is worth little or
much. Some of the cows that have
produced such small quantities of milk
and butter fat that their owners have
thought 1t wise to sell them have In
later years developed into remarkable
mixers. This fact Is not only known
TO individual farmers but has been
demonstrated at our experiment sta
tons. At the Michigan station one
young COW that was very small pro-
Queer of milk and butter-fat, and had
more of the beef form than the dairy
form, In subsequent years greatly
changed her characteristics. AS she
grew older the beef form largely dis
appeared, and her form took on the
wedge-shape peculiar to the dairy
COW. She became a producer Of milk
In such immense quantities and OF
such richness that she obtained ma
tional reputation.
In the early days of the Babcock
test, many farmers disposed of young
cows on the presumption that the test
the first year had shewn about what
the cows would do in subsequent
years. 1t was not long. however, be.
fore the professors Of dairying and
dairy experts everywhere began to
advise the farmers against the prac-
tice. The young COW. If poorly fed,
will develop but slowly Tor not at alb
into good COW. II with her the old
practice is followed Of giving her only
dry forage in winter and nothing but
pasture grass in summer, 1t is doubt
full If she will develop her full capac.
ity for milk giving before she Is seven
or eight years of age. II. however,
she Is fed good ration and one In ac-
cordance with the best scientific
methods, she will develop about her
full capacity by the time she is four
or five years of age. 1t will take about
three years Of milking to show what
she Is worth in any case. Our advice
concerning the young COW Is to give
her bountiful supply Of feed, bal
ancing up the concentrated foods with
a large quantity of rough feeds. such
as hay or silage, so that she Will not
overeat. There is no danger of an
animal overeating IL the bulky foods
are in sufficient proportion. Danger
only comes when she Is allowed to eat
a quantity of concentrated foods, or
when she is given an unlimited guam
tity of green alfalfa, which is excess
lively rich in nitrogen.
Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1906-03-22

Sudden changes of feed should be
avoided, especially If very marked. as
in changing from dry to green feed
Special care is required when cows are
put on pasture in the spring and when
first turned on rye or clover. Only a
small quantity of green feed should be
given at first, the amount being in
creased as from day to day the dry
feed Is reduced. If care is not exer
cised at such times, the cows system
is likely to become deranged and the
milk will then have very disagree
able odor, but If this method is fol
lowed the system gradually becomes
adjusted to the new conditions and nc
bad results follow.
When feeding turnips or cabbage
the difficulty is frequently experienced
of having disagreeable odors in the
milk. This difficulty may be largely. II
not entirely avoided by feeding after
milking rather than just before, as the
peculiar odor produced by these feeds
will then leave the cows system be
fore the next milking time.
