LAST NIGHT
J. P. BRADY, WHO FELL FROM

wooden floor below, inhicting fright

The unfortunate man was removed
to the city hospital as speedily as
possible and after an examination it
vas discovered that he was very Sc
nously if not fatally injured Later
in the day an operation was per
formed and at late hour the suffer
ing man was reported to be in a
critical condition and had not recov-
cred from the shock.
Brady has been at work on the
court house Job for about six weeks.
He was a competent man and his
employer and fellow workmen all
express deep regret at the mishap
that befell him yesterday
Superintendent Worrell, who was
at the building at the time of the
accident, says he does not exactly
understand how the man could have

ADVANTAGES OF LISTING.

Tn tie great corn districts of the
west, and particularly in the south
west, more than half the corn crop is
now listed-that means it is drilled
in rows by a machine made for this
purpose The advantages of listing
may be summed up as follows:
Economy of time. One man can
put in and tend about twice as much
corn by listing as he can by blowing
and checking.
Better root system OF the corn. II

THE COLOR OF EGGS.


The following is from bulletin is
sued by the Department of Agricul-
ture at Washington: There is no
constant relation between the color
of the shell and the composition of
the egg, although there is a popular
belief in some localities that the dark
shelled eggs are richer That there
are no differences in the physical
properties and chemical composition
between brown-shelled and white.
shelled eggs was shown by investiga'
tons carried on at the California and
Michigan experiment stations, this
work having been summarized in ear
lier publication of the department.
The color of the shell has, however,
an effect upon the market value, the
brown-she1led eggs bringing the high.
er price, for instance, in the Boston
market, and the white-shelled eggs in
the New York market. In New Eng
land the preference is decidedly in
favCr Of the tinted egg. One great
advantage which all breeders produc.
ing tinted eggs possess is that they
are generally better winter layers
than the varieties producing white
shelled eggs, this being perhaps due
to the fact that they are usually very
good sitters and mothers, and so OBJ

The kid glove industry of which

DISPOSE OF POOR MIXERS.

AS there is a difference in men, IN
their character and earning power,
so there is difference III dairy herds
Of cattle found on Indiana farms. Inc
difference in the herds is likely to
correspond to the difference in the
men. This is admitted as self-evl-
dent, but perhaps without attaching
much Importance 70 the statement.
But probably few people have studied
these differences enough 10 appre-
ciate their extent For instance
would We think, without special in
yestigation, that one herd OF COWS,
costing only a third more than an
other herd, may bring the owner
three times, or five times, or even
ten times as much clear profit? Is
it clearly understood that some In
diana herds do not pay for the feed
given them? That other herds pay
too small a margin of profit to justify
the investment in money and labor?
And that still other herds are max
ing their owners big money? Do
dairymen. in general, know that these
differences rest on plain causes that
may be readily understood. and that
a change from the poor herd 70 the
highly profitable herd IS compare

of any farmer who is able to keep
cows at all?

observation were picked up here and
there at moderate prices. They have
been producing milk throughout the
year at the rate of eighteen cans
to forty-five cows or 212 cows to a
can (eight gallons). The poorer herd
has been yielding at the rate of ) 10
cans to thirty-four cows or GA COWS
to the can.
When milk sells at s1.15 per 100
pounds, this means that the average
COW in the better herd produces 1919
cents worth of milk per day. or $3.50
worth as the total for year Of ten
months. The poorer herd yields 111a
cents worth of milk per COW per day,
or $3.50 worth for the year. There
is some difference between these COWS
and their incomes.
If it costs s32 per COW for feed
in the poorer herd, just $3.50 per
head is left as the profit for one year.
But if the better herd is fed at $40
per COW, it leaves $3.50 per head
as a profit. Here is a difference Of
SAG in clear gain, or in other words,
it takes nineteen cows of the one kind
to equal one COW of the other kind.
In a herd of forty cows, this differ
ence would amount to $3.50.
If man desired to make $1,000
per year profit in the dairy business,
he would have to keep 400 of these
poor producers. But he could get
the same results with twenty-one
cows like those in the better herd
Truly there is large and vital diff
ference between these two herds, and
one that no dairyman can afford to
overlook.
These estimates are conservative
1y made from the facts known, and
do not yet represent the widest ex-
tremes in Indiana dairy conditions
1t is altogether probable that this
poorer herd is kept at an actual loss,
and quite possible that the better
herd makes more money than is here

EARLY LAMBS.

Under favorable conditions there
are many advantages in having the
lambs come early. Early lambs can
be cared for before the flock is turned
out on pasture. They come at a sea-
son when there is ample time to give
them the care they require When
lambs come so late in the season that
the dams are out on pasture the busy
time has arrived and there is danger
that the flock may be neglected A
second advantage is found in the fact
that early lambs can be pushed Oh
and made ready for the early mar
kets, says Practical Farmer. While
it Is true that considerable grain is
required to accomplish this, it is also
true that owing to the higher price
that is usually received for them,
such lambs are more profitable than
the later ones. When lambs are sold.
there is just 50 much more room and
pasture for the rest Of the flock. A
third advantage is the greater free
dom from disease that the earlier
lambs enjoy. This Is not always true,
but It Is In a good many instances.
Sheesmen do not need to be told that
ono Of the greatest difficulties con-
nected with the growing of sheep at
the present time is found in the large
number Of lambs that are lost un-
der some condition because OF the
pWasnce Of parasites in the pastures.
When the lambs are dropped early in
the season many Of them are sold be-
fore this hazard is to any serious ex-
tent incurred. It will usually be
found that lambs suffering from para
sites do not suffer from them until
after the first of June 1t also holds
good that it is better to have the
lambs come early when they are to
be used for breeding purposes.
is this the case when they
are to be sold in the fall, as their
size then captures the eye of those
