Swine producing sections OF North

suits OF the hog cholera conference
held at Ames, la. 1t was called by
Secretary Wilson. DR.. Melvin and DR..

reau of animal industry of the central
western states. These men were called
together by Secretary Wilson to re-

new and successful treatment of hog
cholera.
The method of combating the dis
ease is simply immunization. For a
number of years the department at
tempted to produce successful vac
cine by artificial cultures, but on ac-
count of the ultra microscopic nature
of the organism causing the trouble
this was found to be not feasible.
Since then the workers, knowing that
hogs which have recovered from the
disease are immune, have been i'm
munizing the animals by means of the
infected blood.
1t was soon found, however, that the
blood serum from these recovered
swine did not contain the immunizins
bodies in sufficient numbers to confer
immunity to other animals when In
jected into their system. To render
these antitoxin bodies of practical val
ue they can be increased by feeding
the heart, liver, lungs and intestines O
cholera victims to these immune ami
mails. These animals are made still

Preparations for the summer crop or
Boston ferns and the various other

ferns are readily multiplied by means

stock plants on a bench, giving them
about four inches of good soil of very
similar character to that one would

there are likely to be some young

lepis bed will not require very frequent
waterings, but as the plants become
well rooted and grow freely they will
take up great deal of water, for they
should be grown in bright and airy
house in order to keep the young
plants short and stocky. A night tenn
perature of 60 to 65 degrees is quite

ed blood. This hyper-immune blood
from these animals is found to be pro-
tective against the disease. DR.. Nc

has demonstrated by number OF trials
the practicability of the treatment.

true, for by horseback riding every mus

the stock produced will be OF an In
ferior character. 1t is here that the
mistake becomes conspicuous, and 1t
ia more noticeable later when the
progeny is marketed. Superior cows
are very desirable, but first class
bull is more so, and 1t ought to be the
ambition of all to own such not only
as a credit to oneself, but as money
maker.
A COW may be as good as is possible,
but use an inferior bull and her calf
will be moderate, to say the least, but
use a substantial bull and ninety-nin
chances to one the calf will be better
either than the sire or dam, writes w.
K. Gilbert in Field and Farm. At
tempts to breed from poor class or
cows with a bull of similar character
only results in the production of lot
of weeds, but If a really good bull Is
used for inferior cows the stock will
be improved percepubly, both In ap-
pearance and value.
| A pure bred bull Of any kind Is an
acceptable animal, but crossbred ones
are doubtful. That some are good,
admit, but the majority are rubbish.
It does not matter what the object OF
breeding be-milk production In the
extreme or beef with great develop
ment> on the most valued parts-a su-
perior bull will always make its marx
and have a big share in securing all
that is required, both for ornament and
utility .....
There are two principal influences to
account for the patronage given to In
ferior bulls AS in SO many cases,
money is at the bottom of one. Some
pride themselves on how cheap tney
can buy a bull. What a deluslon &c
compliment oneself on!
Now for the other influence. 1t is

scale, but the young insects are white
and at first glance resemble tiny pieces
of white cotton on the underside OF the
frond.
This insect is very destructive, and
its rayages soon show in the form Of
light colored spots that appear ON the
upper side of the leaf, proving that the
insects have been satisfying their ap-
petites with the juices of the leaf. A
dipping in tobacco extract will help IN
killing this pest, but strong tobacco
solution is also liable to injure the tips
of the fronds. The growing tips OF the
nephroIepis fronds are quite tender,
and it is better to throw away plant

than to risk further trouble with II.
Be very careful to plant out none put

THE BULL.

AS a rule, less attention is given TO

a very general desire to possess su-

evident that there are plenty vino DO
not care what breed. form. size or
other points they own so long as they
can do their work.
This is an extremely unfortunate at
titude, and when put in practice, as II
far too often is, it is quite certain that

TIE DAIRYMAN.

Dairy farmers should retain the
calves from the best milking cows. lt
is almost impossible to buy dairy COWS
as good as the calves from the best
cows will make if the former are prop
erly reared and handled. Feed the
heifer calf on muscle and bone making
feed to obtain large frame. Feed
plenty of roughage to develop large
stomach capacity. Do not feed fatten-
ing foods and allow the heifer to be-
come fat When fresh, feed well, sta
BILE well and make the first milking
period as long as possible.
Experiments With Rye Meal.
The Pennsylvania experiment station
has discovered that rye meal as a part
Of a properly balanced ration for milk
cows is as efficient ih milk and butter
production as an equal weight of corn
meal. No injurious effect upon the
quality of the butter was noticed.
Treatment For Seours.
Some time ago the South Carolina
experiment station recommended the
! use of formaldehyde as treatment
| for scours in young calves. 1t should
be fed as follows: Add one-half ounce
! of commercial formalin to 15.5 ounces
of distilled or rain water and give one
teaspoonful of this solution with each
pound or pint of skimmilk fed. Giving
this treatment twice, say once In the
mornings and once in the evening"
milk, will usually cure the scours. The
Virginia experiment station has recent
" tested this remedy quite. thoroughly
and reports most satisfactory results.
Some Good Advice.
/ W. F.-MeSparran of Pennsylvania IL
IN address before the Vermont dairy
hen uttered this very sensible advice
on the matter of improving the dairy
qualities of farm cows: A cow may b'
better than she looks or worse thai
she looks. The only way to tell one ii
to live with her. Get rid of the poo
ones. They take the bread out of ou
mouths, but the more promising one
may surprise you with judicious feed
ing. Put them to the test; shelter then
from storms; be kind to them; don
| try to half starve them on half or
, pasture, but give them the full roun
year ration. Send your scrub bull I
the butcher and get the best buil Q

Oat Byproducts.

There is q class Of byproducts from
the cereal mills of Iowa net merit
greater attention on the part OF our
Feeders. In this class are the oat feeds'
fiours, middlings, shorts. and possibly
the bran, too. may be used. Ihese
feeds are we'll up in protein and have
appreciable percentages of fat, which
render them particularly desirable as
hog feeds, and possibly their use may
with profit be extended to horses.
This is specially true Of the four
middlings and shorts. The oran, now
ever, has too high content OF crude
fiber to give it a very great value as
flesh producer or to render lt pal
atable to the feeding animal. Inese
are comparatively new feeds, and tneir
practical worth has not been denhltely
established, but from their chemicai
composition it seems evident that ex-
perimentation with practical feeding
tests will fully demonstrate their rank
ing well with similar wheat products,
IL not outclassing them.-Louis d-
