committed crime, which made him
take 1t. He agreed to leave the coun-

wrote father that he was about to sail
for Martinique in ship called the
Centaur. He said he intended to buy
plantation at Martinique and make
that his home. In February we learned
that the Centaur had been lost with oil

Creameryman's Ten Commandments.

(redmcryman ZEN NOmmdHumcutSs
The clean milk campaign may not be
said TO be without its amenities, even to
the dairyman. The manufacturer OF a
''cleaner" is the author of one OF these
amenities, which he hands to his custom
ers in the shape of a compound of ad-
vice and advertisement labeled rs above
He says among other things:
Thou shalt not cast all the dirt thou
canst brush off the cow into the milk
pail.
Thou shalt not mix water with thy
milk. thou nor thy man servant nor thy
hired girl, for 80 surely as thou doest
this thing, thy name shall be Dennis

whole milk route.
"Thou shalt not feed thy cow too
much potatoes, onions, horse radish,
mustard or bad cabbage, for these
things, though they may be as cheap as
all out doors, cause the butter maker to
gnash his teeth exceedingly, and the
butter eater to buy his butter some
where else.

Heavy Hogs Improbable.

In looking over q local paper the
writer found the following item which is
a fair sample of the views OF many OF
our hog raisers who have not studied
much about economical pork making:
"James A. Mearns butchered hog IL
months old which weighed 440 pounds,
writes A. j. Legg in an exchange. II
was something of hog, and II it had
attained full growth it would have
weighed more. The great error on the
part of our people is that they butcher
their swine too young"
A 40 pound porker is a good sized
hog, il is true, but by no means as large
as 1t is possible to grow well-bred hogs
at that age. The important question Is,
Was Mr.. Mearns' 440-pound hog eco
nomically produced? II he had produced
two hogs weighing 220 pounds each at
eight and one. half months old, would II
not have been more economicaiT dc
would not have had so large carcass TO
keep up for 80 long a time. The zz0-
pound hog at half the age at which this
large hog was produced would not have
been a wonderful hog. have known
hogs to do much better.
It is not the very large hog that pays
best for the feed consumed, neither is It
the very large hog that makes the best
pork. Our local market prefers the hog
that dresses less than 200 pounds. The
most economical hog must grow fast
and be ready for the butcher before he
reaches ten months of age. March pigs
make the best porkers for the next fall.
In order to succeed in making pork at
an early age, some good breed must be
nsed and the pigs must be we'll taken

Dried Blood for Calf Scours.

The success found to follow the use of
dried blood for scours in calves is given
as follows in q bulletin of the Kansas
Experiment Station:
"Uudoubtedly the greatest difficulty
that the calf feeder has to contend with
is scours. Here, as elsewhere, AN ounce
of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
The principal causes Of this difficulty
are over-feeding, sour milk, feeding cold
milk, feeding grain with the milk, using
dirty milk-paiis, very cold water, too
much water after periods of thirst, and
irregularity in feeding. The careful
feeder will watch very carefully the
effect of his feed upon his calves, and as
soon as there are any signs of scours the
milk should be reduced one-half or more
and gradually increased again as the
calf is able to stand 1t.
The Kansas station has been very
successful in using dried blood as tonic
for weak or securing calves. A mild
case of scours can usully be cured In
from one to two days by reducing the
milk and adding teaspoonful OF dried
blood while the calf Is drinking. y

Winter Dalrylng.

Ten or fifteen years ago great deal
Of discussion was heard in the dairy and
creamery journals as to the advantages
of winter dairying. Prices OF the pro-
duction ranging 80 much higher than In
summer, it was argued that the farmer
who made the largest amount OF milk
in the winter was the one who made the
most money.
The whole proposition was thrashed
out in various ways and under various
ideas as going to prove that the man
who made milk in the winter made
better profit from his COWS than the
man who made milk In the summer, and
the creamery man who could induce
larger flow in the winter had better
chance to make money both for himself
and his patrons.
Of late there has been quite as much
discussion along that line, and the ques-
ton arises whether that system has in
creased in the proportion that 1t was
hoped might be the case by the advo-
Gates thereof. Conditions on the dairy
farms have been very much changed In
the past ten years. Taking the records
as we find them, there does not seem to
have been an increase in population.
Therefore the supply of raw product has
not kept pace with the consumptive de-
mand.
The high prices of grain, cattle and
hogs have changed conditions also.
Many farmers are inclined to decrease
their dairy herds and add to their stock
of hogs or beef cattle, because of the
difficulty In securing proper and efficient
help to do the milking.
The high price of grain also has had .
tendency to change the ideas OF the
dairy farmer because winter dairying
necessarily compels grain feeding. With
these changed conditions and with the
disposition Of the ordinary farmer to got
the most out of the least work, there
seems to be in many sections falling of
of the milk production during the win
ter instead Of an increase during that
season. Whether this will become uni
versal, and We will have the same con-
ditions that prevailed. before the system
of storing butter during the surplus sea-
son, when during the summer prices
would be low and during the winter
more than doubled, is 4 problem that
confronts the dairy industry to-day
