Ignorant use OF fertilizers has
wrought financial hardship and even
ruin to many farmers. Expensive
commercial fertilizers unless wisely
used will not pay for themselves.
Don't let some smooth agent persuade
you in buying for your land what you

A special seed corn train was run
through the state of Indiana during
the first two weeks of March. The ex-
hibition was under the direction of
Prof. G. I. Christie, Of the agricultural
department of Purdue university, and
his lectures at the 165 places where
stops were made will do much to slim
ulate better corn production in the
state.
About go per cent of what the COW
eats goes to keep up her body and
the profit in milk and butter comes
from the feed she consumes outside
of this amount needed for support.
If you suspect that your COW is not
getting enough feed, increase it grad
ually, and if she responds in increased
yields of milk you may continue it.
If she fails to respond then withdraw
the extra feed.
When the farmer has progressed
for oh tn {hn wis Cf
ing pure bred sire he will be con-
tent no longer with the old slip shod
methods.
To give that boy the best education
you can in the line of business he is
to follow is to give him an equipment
for life which he will appreciate more
and more as the years unfold.
No farmers son who is to follow
the high calling of his sire should be
denied the fullest preparation which
the agricultural college can give him
for his Nfe's work.
During the days you cannot do any
thing else improve the moments in
replenishing the woodpile. The rush
of spring work prevents such work.
Shame to make it necessary for the
women folks to chop the fuel.
Prof. Forbes, Illinois state entomol-
ogist, he's no word of commentator
for the English sparrow, but he esti-
mates that the meadowlark as an in
sect destroyer is worth 80 cents a
year to the farmer. Worth protecting,
don't you think? ~
What kind of poultry shall one
keep? That depends. If you are rails
ing poultry for market you want the
table fowl; If for egg production you
want some one of the great laying
breeds; if for family use only, you
want the general purpose fowl.
BY careful breeding the Maine ex-
pertinent station has increased the
average yield of it's hens from 100
eggs per year to IA eggs per year.
No female has been used in the breed
ing pens for six years whose mother
did not lay at least 160 eggs in her
pullet year. No males have been
used as breeders unless their mothers
laid above 200 eggs per year.
The feeding Of the heifer is an i'm

Ever have stock standing near a
wire fence struck by lightning? Good
plan is to ground the wire of such
fence every eight or ten rods. All
perpendicular wires should connect
with horizontal wires and reach moist

You are foolish if you dispose of the
lambs that are half finished, that are
not fat enough to be desired by BUTCH
ers and are not wanted by buyers or
feeders. They are sure to bring low
prices and you can finish them on the
farm much better than allowing them
to be sold in the half-fnished state.
The discussion is still going on in
some of our leading farm journals as
to the relative merits of the large or
small farm. A determined factor in
the question is the man who works
the farm. The man with the large
ability will do better on the large
farm, and the man of small ability
will find the small farm will pay

TO become successful dairy man,

SQUAD breeding statistics show that
the price of three dollars per dozen
for squads has been a high average
during the past year: While it is

One feature of bee-keeping which
appeals to many is the small outlay
required to make a start. Another
point is the rapidity by which the bees
increase in numbers. From one hive
of bees in four or five years one may
have 100 full-fedged stocks of bees,
usually termed colony. AS each
colony in the summer season has from
SO to 1000 bees, the increase is GER
tainly remarkable.

top worked on variety or varieties
which in the past proved Improbable
or top-worked to avoid natural weak
ness of stock. Ultimate conclusions
will be awaited with interest.
Prof. E. H. Webster, of the United
States department of agriculture, has
this to say to the users of cream
separator machines: Separator COM
panies issue books of instruction with
each machine. These are sufficiently
clear and comprehensive. They will
insure good care of the machine If
followed. It sometimes happens, how
ever, that the purchaser thinks he
knows more about the machine and
how it should be used than the manu-
facturer. Such one generally comes
to grief"
After conducting experiments with
various milking machines, the Kan
sas agricultural experiment station
advances the following conclusions:
First, that a milking machine will
milk COWS as thoroughly as the aver.
age mixer; second, that some COWS
give more milk when MIXED with a
machine than when MIXED by hand;
others give less; third, that it is ex-
tremely necessary for the man in
charge to fully understand how to
operate milking machine; fourth,
that to reach the highest degrees of
success cows should be selected and
bred to respond to machine milking.
If this factor is taken into considera-
ton machine milking will be equally
as successful as the best hand milk.

Are you careless about the way in
which the manure is handled upon
your farm? These facts ascertained
by experiment by the Cornell univer-
sity ought to arrest your attention
and make you consider your wasteful
methods. Four thousand pounds Of
ordinary manure from the horse
stables, worth $2.74 per ton for the
plant food it contained, were exposed
in pile out of doors from April Is
to September % (less than five
months), but at the end Of that time
the total weight had decreased to
1,730 pounds, and that was worth only
1924 per ton. In other words, the
value of this pile of manure was re-
duced from SEAS to $2.03 during five
months exposure. In another ex-
pertinent, manure exposed for six
months lost Sc per cent. Of it's dry
matter and 43 per cent. Of its plant
food value. In this case the fresh
manure was worth 1927 a ton, while
the rotted manure was worth $3.01
a ton, but the loss in total weight
and in plant food was such that for
each ton originally worth $2.27 there
remaining only $3.50 worth after sir
months exposure. ... ....3 pa.
