Hardly a week goes by but reports
appear in the daily press of the coun-
try of some victim who has paid the
penalty of his life through being used
as a. target by some rattle Drained
idiot, little or big, behind the unload
ed" gum. And a strange thing about it
all is that SO few people seem to profit
by reading of other cases in which
some one else has been the executioner
and some one else the hapless victim.

Experience with new milk cows and
their calves seems to point to the wis.,
dom Of not allowing the calf to suck
the dam unless she is an inferior milk
er and 1t is desired to allow the calf to
run with her forseveral weeks for the
purpose of making quick veal. If the
calf is allowed to suck for three or
four days or until the milk gets good
and is then removed, the mother will
often not let down her milk as she
should, with the result that her flow Of
milk is permanently reduced.

AN Important point to remember in
the care of cream after it comes from
the separator is that it should be cool
ed to temperature of SO degrees be-
fore it is added to other cream already
cooled. If the cream is gathered in the
old fashioned way the milk should be
put to cool as. coon as possible after 1t
is taken from the cows.

An Illinois farmer who has become
enthusiastic in the matter Of raising
sheep claims that keeping sheep on
farms whose fertility has been allowed
to deteriorate will double the value of
the land in the course of seven years.
He bases this claim on results which
he himself secured in the growing of
corn, the average yield before he began
raising sheep being fifty bushels per
acre. while after he had kept them
seven years his acres yielded a hun
dred bushels. This is without doubt an
extreme case, yet points to a most i'm
portant truth-that lands which have
been depleted by grain selling may
have their virgin fertility largely re-
stored through the raising Of sheep
and cattle and the keeping of dairy
cows.

While horses do not consume as
much salt as cattle, it should neverthe-
less be placed where they can get it at
will. A chunk of rock salt plXed in
the manger or feed ex answers the
purpose very well and at the same time
is an economical method of feeding it.

TWO Stow.

We have in mind two li.chcn ranges
about which we knew ny: long since
The one which was suppo Z t, lie a
dandy bargain was bought 70: S19.99
Of some distant and irresponsil., t'a y
l0gue house, was poorly made of cast
iron and rusted out and went to pieces
after it had been used five years. The
other was small sized steel range
which cost $48 at the start and after
fifteen years of continuous use is today
as good as new and is delight and
comfort to the housewife who operates
It. There is a case of profit and loss
here which most anybody of average
intelligence can figure out without be-
ing hit on the head with stuffed club.
Prospective stove buyers would do well
to take pencil and paper and figure
out annual stove cost In both cases,
but before doing SO should a>'d ten
years more life to the steel range.

A dirty creamery patron often raises
hob with the butter product Of the
creamery which he patronizes. We
heard Of one of these chaps the other
day whose filthy cream was finally de-
tected by the foul odor which arose
there as it came out Of the pipe leading
from the drivers wagon to the cream
vat. An investigation followed, show
ing that the conditions under which
this cream was produced and cared for
were slovenly and dirty beyond de-
scription, and as a result the patron
was dropped. Filthiness in this fell
lows case was either a matter of
heredity or had become so fixed as a
habit that he was hopeless case, for
he has not yet been reinstated.

There is perhaps more satisfaction to
be derived from the quality than guam
tity of "a crop. This accounts for the
delight which the orchardist feels in
picking large and perfect fruit, the po-
tato or onion raiser in harvesting crops
which will class rs fancy and the
farmer in running his fingers through
the stream Of plump, well filed grain
as it comes from the spout of. the
thrashing machine or in the resound-
ing :whack which the large, golden,
even rowed ears Of corn make as they

The BEST way. to treat plants that
are frostbitten is not to sprinkle them
with cold water, as might seem nat
ural, but to put them in a cool place
where the frost will come out grad

altogether too rapid.

While, there may be some discussion
among dairymen and stock raisers as
to the relative value of different kinds
of food rations, there Is entire agree
ment when it comes to the necessity
of giving the farm. animals an; abun-
dance of pure fresh water. The sink
hole water supply man may be found
here and there when it comes to ac-
tual practice, but he never takes part
in a discussion to defend his practice.

Nearly every community north and
south harbors some son Of nature who
persists in fishing all summer and let
ting the county support his family dur
ing the winter. Just what is best to
do with this sort of truck is mighty
difficult problem, for the laws of the
land will not permit Of their judicial
determination. We believe that So
ciety., would justify the government in
forcibly taking these fellows and put
ting them in the army or navy. 1t is
this sort of invited and provoked pow
erty that makes the working citizen
weary. =: ;.
Somewhat careful inquiry of !. the
representative of one of the leading
lightning rod manufacturing concerns
of the middle west brings out the in
formation that barn 40 by 80, with
two foot posts, could be effectively
equipped with rods and wire at cost
of $41.50. This equipment includes
three rods and enough wire to prop
erly ground them at diagonal corners
OF the barn. Hardly storm occurs
during the summer season but reports
follow of several farmhouses or barns
burning as result of being struck
by lightning. If the job Of rodding
building is properly done by reliable
firm and proper guarantee given that
the work is Of this character, as nearly
complete protection from lightning fire

One of the most interesting exhibits
of seed grains displayed at the big
state fairs this year was arranged by
an English firm which has branch
house in Chicago and at one or two
eastern points. Magnificent types Of
wheat. rye and barley were on dis
play. while a breed of improved
Swedish oats was shown which weigh
ed fifty pounds to the bushel and
which at points in Canada had given
yields as high as 12O bushels to the
acre. While this type Of oats would
not do as we'll in the States because
of less favorable climatic conditions,
it would doubtless give a yield far
superior to that of kinds ordinarily
