Have you started that set Of books
yet?
Get acquainted with your hens. 1t
will pay you.
A cold, drafty stable never built up
a farmers bank account.
Success with the livestock is pro-
portionate to the care given them.
Improve the mild days now by
doing such pruning as may be neces-
Bary.
Let the sun and fresh air into the
poultry house. It's the best kind OF
tonic.
The poultry business is easy to
learn, but the expert is not made in
one year.
Don't delay marketing the hogs
after they have reached good selling
condition.
May it not be concluded that the
gray matter in the pessimist's head is
a dark, dark blue?
Poor plan to yard sheep and cows
together. Latter are apt to chase the
former and may hurt them.
Remember it is easier to prevent
disease than it is to cure it after 1t
has gained a hold upon your stock.
The angry shout at the horse makes
the man less man, and the horse
less responsive to the will Of it's mas
ter.
The chief difficulty of butter max
ing in winter is that the cream is
either too old or too cold to churn
we'll.
Don't let exposure and insufficient
food stunt the young stock. You will
never be able to recover lost ground
If you do.
If you have any pleasant talk give
it to the home folks and not exclusive
ly to the stranger you meet in town or
on the highway
It's the gun that isn't loaded that
goes off, and it's the horse that never
starts when left standing that bolts
and smashes wagon or buggy.
A winter equation for the poultry
man to consider is that cut-bone,
green food (clover or roots) and ex-
ercise equal generous egg produce
ton.
The successful farmer has a mis-,
sion to fill in the community in which
he lives by stimulating and encourage
ing better methods among his neigh
bOrs.
A letter from you to the represent
atives of your district in state or ma
tional legislative body concerning any
legislation in which you are specially
interested will bear fruit.
The hogs like wood ashes, soft coal
in small bits, mortar, rotten wood, etc.
Such things are a help to digestion
and good health. See that they get
such things occasionally.
Ever try putting your tongue to a
of
mornings? Then think how it must
feel to the horse to have the ice-cold
bit thrust into his mouth.
The newly seeded area of winter
wheat is estimated by the department |
Of agriculture at 31,665,000 acres, an |
increase of $4,000 acres, or IL per
cent. over the acreage of 1905.
Prof Henry, of Wisconsin, suggests
that dairy communities keep one breed |
Of COW, say either Jersey, Holstein,
Guernsey or Ayrshire. He thinks it
would tend to raise the grade of ami.
mails.
The brave man is the prudent man,
especially when handling the BULL No
matter what the disposition of the
bull is supposed to be he should al
ways be handled with a staff attached
to his nose ring.
Of all the diseases to cure the self.
sucking COW the ring in the nose is
thu surest and best. If the one ring
ST ould fail to stop the practice, as in
ne cases it does, put second ring
j the first ring.
