TUBERCULOSIS in HOGS.

Wishing to test the matter of hogs he
coming infected with tuberculosis from
the milk of tubercular cows, the Iowa ex-
pertinent station at Ames fed four lots of
pigs four and one-half months with milk
that was infected with the germs of bo-
vine tuberculosis and with paste,rrized
milk free from such bacfIli. Two lots
were fed In lots with timothy pasture and
the other two in dry lots. One of each of
the lots was given tubercular food from
four to seven times and at the end of the
period expert hog buyers could see no
signs of disease and considered the whole
lot worth the top of the market, except
four head, which were small.
Post mortem examinations found that
only one-fourth Of these twenty head that
had had the tubercular baccilIf were fit
for consumption. though 45 per cent. of
the lot were, not so badly affected that
they could not be used for lard purposes
with entire safety. OF those fed the pas
tuerized milk zone were affected. 1t there
fore seems plain that in the short space Of
four and one-half months healthy nfrs
were made unfit for market purposes by
feeding the germs Of t~uberculous diseases.
Careful Inquiry into the ancestry of these
pigs indicated that there was no tuberc,,-
lar disease connected with any of them.
so that the cause of the disease was en-
tirely in the food. If this result is at
tanned I'm this time, what will be the con-
dition of hogs sold from farms that al
ready nave the disease or are fed on milk
from tu~bercular cows for the year or less
of their natural lives before being MT on
the market?

PEACOCK SOCKS THE FASHION
From the London Exnress

Hitherto it has been supposed that III.

the gay colors of the peacock.
This is the age OF the yariegate cool,
Walk down the Burlington arcade ana
you will see the windows of the seJecf
hosiers flaming with socks of MANY COL
ors. Purple with yellow spots, green
with red spots, black with pink stripes,
and startling blends of mauve, brown and
magenta brighter the windows.
10 wear sornber socks nowadays is to
put yourself at once outside the pale OF
society. Indeed, SO fashionable is the bril-
liant sock that at Henley this year there
were sock competitions among the gild-
ed and fianneled youths.
Prizes were offered for the best effect
N colored socks, and the young man that
won was best out of twenty, with green
stripes on a white ground.
A Burlington arcade hosier said that
eolored socks are the result of the en-
tente cordiale. English fashions are be-
coming more Partisan, and low shoes are
being worn to a greater extent in order
to show he smartness OF the socks.
This is the law Of the sock as laid
down by him: Stripes should always
be vertical, never round he sock, and
generally a man should see hat his ties
and socks are the same color
Really smar people have the same hue
IN ties, socks, braces and handkerchiefs."
He added that Englishmen are now pay
ing far more attention to the detail OF
their dress than formerly. Nobody dashes
into the shop and buys Il dozen of black
swiftly. Sock buying has become a serious.

or choosing a motor car.

LOOKING AT THE FEED END.

100 many dairymen look only at one
emo or their business. They seem to
think that If they get a fair quantity
or milk every day h a they are making
money. OF course milk is what we are
after. and the more of it and the bet
ter the quality so much more will be
our profits, providing the feeding end
has been kept in right proportion. There
IS as much opportunity for profit by
feed1ng right as there is in selling
right, yet the majority of dairymen
could not tell for the life of them how
much it costs to produce a gallon Of
milk or a pound of butter. The feeding
end or da1rying involves a careful sys-
tenn OF farming, for wheat growing and
good clarifying will not go we'll together.
where the feeding end Of dairying is
looked after right there will always be
found plenty Of cora, oats, clover hay
ana Glove pastures, M the winter RAJ
ions or the cows will be so nicely bal
aiced mat maximum results are OBJ
tanned right along through the cold
weather. | visited a dairy farm in
Carroll county last week where dairy
ing and general farming are carried on
here nice, bright fodder was stored in
tne barns, the straw was in the mows.
ana there was tons of mangels to give
succulence to the winter rations. There

1hese are supplied. It pays to look at
the feed end Of dairying first. for tho

SAVE The COW MANURE.

Ing crops, phosphoric acid Is the one
which growers will do we'll to use Judi
ciously. 1t is an element which is def
cient on most farms. and for this rea-
son the dung Of cows, which contains

should be carefully saved and applied
to lands. The manure made by cows
supplies nearly all elements Of crop
growth. The urine contains most OF
the nitrogen. the dung the phosphoric
acid, and the coarse stuff, such as
straw, most OF the ash. There is less
than half a pound of phosphoric acid in
100 pounds Of we'll rotted manure, SO it
is essential that every BIT of the ma
nure be saver. Mich cows, at best, do
not produce a high class manure be-
cause OF the elements which are sold
off in the milk. Use plenty of straw
for bedding, n then get the manure
out on the fields where 1t will count.

WATCH THE COWS

Ihere has been more than the usual
umbe Of cases Of abortion among
dairy cows reported during the past
year. The increase Of this affection
cannot be accounted for, unless it
from contagion. The dairvman
should be on the lookout low for any
chronic cases. Better remove from the
general herd any cow that has ever
aborted. Much can be done to aver
this trouble by toning up the cows
system, Keeping her free from ex-
cftement and in COMFORTABLE u,,ar+ers
Right now is the time to attend to these
matters. Don't wait until one or more
cows have prematurely dropped their
calves, and thus lay the whole herd
open to infection. II It is not feasible
