WAR AGAINST WEEDS.

The warfare on weeds, commenced in
Iowa, is spreading. All over the country
farmers are becoming aroused Owe the
problem of fighting weed pests and
cleaning up their lands The sowing o.
weed seeds has gone on for 50 many
years unchecked that the situation now

as they appear one can get the upper,

every worker around the farm would
make it his business to pull ND every

then the plows and mowers must be de.

This weed cleaning job is a mighty biz

be done thoroughly. Fight them az

WHAT sPolLs MILK.

More milk is spoiled by standing
around the stables than in any other
way. Filth is the source of acidity in
milk. and around the stable there are
hundreds of ways for it to get into the
milk. 1 have a case in mind of a farm
er who milks two cows. / recently
staid all night with him and went out
with him next morning While he was
doing the chores. This is the way he
went at 1t. First he fed the horses
their corn and hen MIXED the COWS.
The cows and horses were kept in the
same stable-on opposite sides. After
The cows were MIXED the pail ccntain-
ING the milk was set down near the
door and then hay was thrown down
Tor the horses. That was not all. The
milk was left there until the horses
were curried. When the pail was finally
aiken to the house the milk was cov-
cred with clover chaff and no telling
how much dust n filth had settled in
It. Milk cannot be kept sweet unless it
Is free from all stable dust and odors.

The average man thinks he will
have plenty of time for everything IL

Now is the crowding time for the
fattening hogs. If troughs are kept
clean and the hogs are not rushed on
to new corn, there will not be much
danger from disease. But filthy troughs
n floors and green feed will quickly
throw the hogs out of sorts.

FARM FACTS.

How are he colts doing? A mixture
OF ground. oats and bran will be fine
to feed them during the next month or
SO. Stalk fields, or "roughing'' it will
not bring the colts through the winter
In good condition. They will need
good stabling and nutritious food all
winter.
The citizen-Republican. (Scotland, Bon Homme County, S.D.) 1???-19??, 1907-10-03

The ability ct the good feeder will
be taxed this winter in so combining
his home grown feed to convert it
Into 30-cent butter with profit. Feed
ing dairy cows is like being a good
cook, it all depends upon how you put
things together.
The citizen-Republican. (Scotland, Bon Homme County, S.D.) 1???-19??, 1907-10-03
DAIRY NOTES.

Some farmers say that they do not
Ike to bother with COWS, so long as
butter can be had at nearby
at % cents or 80 cents a pound. 1t
would hardly do for all farmers to take
that view of the matter.

There are many more old sows being

We heard a man ask a few days
ago whether the dairy business was
being overdone. There are surely no
signs Of 1t now. Like all other bust
