ROUGH FEED FOR STOCK.

Forest Henry IN Northwestern Agricul-
turist.
How many farmers have had this
winter all the rough feed their stock
could eat? This has been year of high
prices for grain. Few farmers have
had enough to feed, to say nothing of
grain to sell. Where one has all the
good hay and corn fodder that stock
Will eat they will get along very well
on a limited ration of grain. Glover
hay and corn fodder are two of the
very cheapest feeds that can be pro-
duCed on the farm. You cannot SOW
clover this spring and expect to get a
hay crop the coming season. but you
can sow, and harvest the year follow
ing. The corn fodder you can grow In
abundance the coming summer. Don't
fail to do this.
i have found II a good plan not to
get in too big a hurry in planting this
crop; but to wait until the main crop
that is calculated for husking is plant
ed and then cover good generous
piece of land with the barnyard ma
nure that can be gathered about the
barnyard that would otherwise go to
waste besides being a nuisance in the
yard If the ground is already plowed,
harrow II over couple of times, so the
spreader or wagon loaded with manure
will run more easily, and then either
reploW II after covering or thoroughly
disc il in. 1t may takS you 10 days to
do this, but the fodder corn will soon
make up this loss of time by the
quicker pace it will take on in its
growth, and it will be the more tender
by growing quickly.
/ should plant two or three times as
thickly as for ears, which will reduce
the size of the stalks. but at the same
time give plenty of small ears. If it is
planted so thiCkly that ears refuse tc
set, you are shutting out sunshine and
are reducing quality. This thickly
planted corn will cut and hind much
better than corn that is planted in
checks for husking. ] should always
aim to plant fodder corn in drills run.
ming north and south If possible, so as
to let in all the sunshine possible This
thickly planted drilled corn will handle
very much better than cut checked
corn.

THE rupgRcuLosls CAMPAIGN

The campaign about to begin against
tuberculosis in Missouri cows by the
state board of agriculture, looking TO
state law reimbursing owners whose
diseased animals are slaughtered by
state officials. is not the first action
taken by a commonwealth. says the
Drovers' Telegram. The Wisconsin ex-
pertinent station has been busy for
quite awhile and has achieved notable
results, as set out in the last annual
report of that station. The experiment
station work has been supplemented
by that of the state veterinarian and
private individuals. whose records are
not included in the compilation showing
OF the station itself. During the past
three years hundreds of students have
been set to work and tuberculin has
been distributed by wholesale over the
state. Tabulated results were sent TO
the station, showing that the disease is
giving way TO this treatment, as set
forth in this table.

Home Made Cement.

From Suburban LIE.
Something which the suburbanite fire.
quently needs in Small quantities. but
which he rarely has on hand. is a good,
quick setting cement for uniting small
fragments of iron, setting wooden ham
dies into tools and a hundred and one
other small jobs. A very good cement
which will answer almost any require
ment may be made by dissolving com
mon orange shellac in enough alcohol
to form a paste. This may be kept on
hand in a tightly corked bottle with a
wide mouth-tightly corked, or the al
cohol will evaporate. When it is de-
sired to use the cement, place as much
as it is desired TO use in any small tin
vessel and set the paste on fire The
alcohol will soon burn out, and the
cement should then be quickly used,
before II has time to cool This cement
is very strong and is waterproof.

Faith and Hope.

Oh, don't be sorrowful, darling;
Oh, don't be sorrowful, pray;
For, taking the year together, my dear,
There isn't more night than day.
It's rainy weather, my loved one,
Times wheels they heavily run:
But taking the year together, my dear.
There isn't more cloud than sun.
We're old folks now, companion:
Our heads they are growing gray;
But, taking the year all round, my dear,
You always will find the May,
We've had our May, my darling,
And our roses long ago;
And the time of the year is come, my
dear.
For the long, dark nights and the snow,
But God is God, my faithful.
OF night as well as of day.
And we feel and know that We can go
Wherever He leads the way.
Ay, God OF night. my darling,
OF the night of death so grim:
And the gate that from life leads out
good wife,
Is the gate that leads to Him.
