SKIM MILK FOR LAYERS.
lasts Which Indicate That 1t Greatly
Increases Egg Production.


The department of agriculture has
received report from the West Viz
pinia experiment station of a test
made TO determine the value of skim
milk as against water for wetting a
feed mash, says American Poultry
Journal.
Tn the first test, which covered 100
DAYS. twenty-five hens fed skim milk
laid 1,244 eggs as compared with 996
eggs laid by the twenty-five hens fed
mash wet with water.
In the first period Of the second test
sixty hens fed the skim milk ration
laid S62 eggs in thirty-seven days as
compared with $50 eggs laid by sim
liar LOT fed no skim milk. In the sec
ond period the rations We're reversed.
The chickens fed skim milk laid 1,22O
eggs in flfty-six days as compared with
978 in the case of the lot fed no skim
milk, In both experiments more eggs
were produced when skim milk was
substituted for water for moistenng
the mash.
Under the conditions prevailing in
these experiments and with eggs sell
ing for 20 or % cents per dozen the
skim milk used for moistennS the
mash had a feeding value Of from ~
to cents per quart. In these trials
8O2 quarts of skim milk were fed, re
sulting in an increase in the egg pro
ducti0n of 702 eggs.

Eorce Exerted by the Heart.

The force eXelted by the heart equals
100 tons lifted one foot. In other
words, the work of the heart Is equity
alent to raising its own weight 10000
feet in one hour. A strong man can
raise himself but 1000 feet in an hour.
This enormous force, If eXerted by the
heart through fixed rigid pipe, would
shoot the blood along with each Jerk
at rate of 200 feet second. How
ever, the arteries, being elastic, are
dlstended by the Jerk or beat or the
heart, and when the heart pau'es after
the beat the contraction Of the arteries
sends the blood along in steady nom
intermittent flow, which averages
about one foot q second

Farmer Vincent's Hen Sayings.

Grit makes gritty hens. Gritty hens
are the ones that pay.
II the earth under your henhouse is
naturally damp, put in floor. If dry
and gravelly, dirt floors are all right.
Any broken panes of glass in your
houses? Better put good panes in.
Roup often gets in at the window, and
50 do other kinds of disease.
Mate your fowls about month be
fore the time for setting.
Keep only male birds that are as
nearly perfect in all points as possible.
II you use an incubator, don't try to
save money by buying poor oil. That
IS the cause Of hosts of failures. Farm

Black Rot In Tomatoes.

Black rot Is often very troublesome
In our early tomatoes. A Georgia
farmer says his early tomatoes brought
SO bushel last season, but most Of
his first crop was unmarketable on
account Of black rot spots.
We have not yet learned how to con-
quer this disease. Possibly we may
check it somewhat by frequent spray
ing with bordeaux mixture, but our
main reliance must be found IN allow
ing free circulation of air around the
plant by supporting the vines in such
way as to hold the fruit up from the
ground. Last season our tomatoes

She paused on the pavement and
clutched the arm Of the woman who
was with her.
Il have found 1t at LAST she ex-
claimed. Did you notice it? 1t was
that indescribable violet perfume
which have been looking for all these
years. The woman who just passed us
had it. DO you suppose she would
think | was crazy if | went after her
and asked her what the name Of it is ?"
"She would probably think you were
insane" rejoined her companion, "but
II you wish to know so much it would
not do any harm to inquire"
She with the perfume had stopped
for moment preparatory to crossing
the street.
You will pardon me, won't you,'
asked the seeker after rare scents, but
would you mind telling me the name
of that wonderful extract you have and
where you got it?"
"Certainly not" was the response as
the woman threw back her cape and
showed beneath great cOrsage bou-
quot of fresh double violets. - New

Beans For Poultry.

II IS an accepted fact throughout
many sections of the country that
poultry will not eat beans. Many Of

utterly useless to try to teach poultry

SELECTING the Breed

Select your breed for the special pur-
pose it is kept for. If there is no def.
mite purpose, study the matter over
carefully until 1t is known what kind
of poultry will net the best returns.
Every farmer should get into the pure
bred poultry class. The attractiveness
OF the flock will result in better care
In addition to the natural inbred supe
riority Of the standard bred fowl.

Temperature In the Incubator.

The variation of a few degrees in the
temperature during the Matching period
will not affect the hatch or the chicks
after they are Matched. The tcmpera-
ture in the incubator should be kept as
near 103 degrees as possible until the
eggs start to pip, when the heat should
be increased to 104 or 105.

DAIRY FARMING.
1t Furnishes a Harvest That Lasts
All the Year.

All INC rear
Dairy farming, which has been hap
PLY designated the harvest that lasts
az ,he year." enters into the field Of
manufacturing more than any other
farming pursuit, since the dairy farm
ar furnishes both the raw material
and finished product. 1t enters both
into live stock raising and general
farming and for the greatest success
demands tltat those who follow it shall
have 4 thorough as we'll as practical
knowledge of the breeding and rails
Ing of animals, no less than the plant
Ing, cultivating and harvesting Of farm
crops.
An Important Advantage.
Whole nations, as Denmark and HOl-
land, and whole states, as New York
and Wisconsin, have been made pros
porous by attention to dairy farming
ana the production Of butter, cheese
and milk Of high quality, says Inland
Farmer. Many farmers have become
wealthy in land and money by the pur-
suit Of dalrying. Whole communities
have been built up and enriched by
the gentle dairy COW and the man be-
hind her. Dairy farming also has this
important advantage-th it restores
fertility to the land, while other sys-
tens Of cropping take fertility from It
as each load Of grain or grass is haul
ed away to be sold. -.
Some Hardships.
There are, Of course, hardships con-
nected with dairy farming and the
handling of COWS, and often the ship
ping of the milk or cream and the
profitable marketing Of the same are
attended with difficulty, but were this
not the case it would be different from
most other pursuits of life and would
attract many from them.

ROTH OUT(lAS5ED
M'KEEVER At TENNIS

If was generally thought amongst
those wise in tennis circles that VIII
Roth would successfully defend MS
lille of Tennis Champion of Hawaii.
They did not, however, anticipate such
an easy victory for the local lad overl
McKeever, the star of the Eva Tennis
Club.
After playing all of the other racket
weilders of Honolulu, Maui and Ha-
wall entered in this match. MckeeVef
was thought to have at least Slight
chance to make a showing against the
southpaw champion but Roth clearly
demonstrated that he is in class by
himself as far as tennis is concerned
IN these Islands. There is no one mere
who even has a look-in with Roth anu
The chances are that with practice ana
training there are few men IN the
States that could take his measure pc
| fore the nets.
Either McKeever was nervous, OH
his game, or Roth was so far superior
| that he made the Eva man look sloW'
for certainly more was expected OF the
plantation man.. AS soon as the nrst
set started it was seen that Roth could
win as he pleased. There was no stage
of the game in which Roth was forced
| to extend himself.
There was the largest crowd gain
cred at the Pacific Tennis Courts 10
| witness this matchIt that has ever peen
seen at match in Hawaii. The crowd
was enthusiastic and aDplaided the
good work of both players. Of course
their sympathy was with MckeeVer
| who was getting the worst Of. the argu-
nent.
,,As to the match itself little can DE
