 Much attention should be given to feeding and care of colts the first two winters. Many try to eeonomize by roughing them through on poor hay. straw and other coarse fodder. cen- sider it poor policy ever 10 rough them. They should be generously fed at all times on good hay and. in addition to this. oats and bran. and in very cold weather little corn can be mixed with the oats to maintain heat.
 Dried bone meal is also excellent as a small addition to the ration to bring up the percentage of digestible pro tein, or haxseed meal may be used with the same object. while roots. such as carrots. or sweet apples are fine adjuster. as they regulate the bowels and also act beneficially on the skin and are much relished by the colts. They should be given exercise in the yard every dry day. No matter how cold it is. they should be turned out, for plenty of food and plenty of ex' ereise are equally necessary to accom- plish the best results.

Round rrin MeaIs

'T never think of the dreadful ocean without being reminded of the re- mark that a small child of mine made to me on the way out last summer" said cheerful young matron who had just returned from abroad ssI was suf- fering from one of the most awful spells of seasickness. My little daugh- ter for three days had seen me lying in my berth. while the stewardess from time to time tempted my reluc- tant appetite. l making dutiful efforts to swallow and retain something-any- thing to sustain life till l could get off that agitated monster called floating palace.
 Mamma queried this daughter of mine after she had just witnessed a particularly narrowing scene, do you think you'll ever go back home if you once get on shore againg
 Oh. yesr I groaned in reply. T don't believe I would. though. if I didn't have these round trip tickets. Having them, I've simply got to re- turn

DEVELOPING
 THE HEIFER.

The deveiopment of the dairy heifer begins with it's feeding when a calf If the calf Is well uourished and kept healthy il should develop good appe- tie and should early learn to eat hay and other ronghage. Hay should ai- ways be provided pIentifully. as this bulky food tends to promote and devel- op the digestive system of the young animal. II is always well also to feed the grain mixed with cottonseed hulls if possible, as this makes a lighter feed and one that will be better masti- catei and dicested. Some animals are somewhat dainty as 10 their feed and do not eat with the relish that should always be noticeable in the healthy and well nourished animals, This is usually result of diserganixed con dition of the digestive system and should be corrected without delay, as it may soon become a fixed habit
 The animal that has poor appetite will never be profitable dairy animal. Care should be exercised in feeding not to overfeed. IL is always safe proposition to feed twice day as much grain as will be consumed in half an hour and as much hay as will be eaten in two hours. If any feed Is left in the rack or manager 1t should be removed. and the next feeding should be reduced to correspond to the needs and appetite of the animal To feed more than an animal will con sume in two hours is wasteful. It is a safe proposition to feed as much as an animal will consume and still wish for more. but if more Is fed than will be consumed the appetite for the next meal is decreased and the animal will common expression is, will be of its feed.
 The best results in developing heifer calves are secured by feeding plenty of good bright alfalfa or eowpea or peanut hay during the first season in connection with sweet skimmilk and a grain ration consisting of eqnal parts by weight of bran. oats and shelled corn mixed with cottonseed hulls The calves may be allowed the run of q small Bermuda grass pasenre. but the best development of the calf will be secured by keeping 1t on dry feed ra- tion during the first season, especially if 1t is born later than the lst of May.

 The Smallest She Had.

A street car conductor one Saturday afternoon had such a good run of busi- ness that he had difficulty In keeping himself supplied with small change. Many persons who patronized his car handed him dollars and bills of large denominations in payment of their fares.
 The conductor managed to get along fairly well until woman carrying tiny infant boarded his car When he approached the woman for her fare she handed him five dollar bill
 .'Is that the smallest you have, mad am?. queried the conductor, fearing another stringency in change.
 The woman looked at the conductor and then at the baby and made this surprising reply:
 Yes. I have been married only twelve months"

 Among the habits which have grown space among Americans of rscent sears has been that of souvenir hunt ing. Souvenir spoons, knives. forks. plates, photographs. postal cards and what not have been perfect passion with the multitude The thing seemed to have been carried little too far when somebody at reception to the Chinese ambassador some years ago tried to snip of a piece of that eni- nent humorist's pigtan with a pair of pocket scissors. but even that was sur passed by certain Chicago woman of great personal attractiveness. who seems 10 have reached the ultimate

idea of eeonomizing. the young thing suffers much from the heat and flies and. the grass being short and insuffi- cient or too coarse to be relished, the calf is stunted in it's growth. IL be gins the first winter in poor condition, and it never fully reeovers from the setback.
 When well cared for and nourished during the first season sufficient growth and development will result so that the young heifer may be bred when not over fifteen or eighteen months old and be ready to take . place in the herd when she is two when she is thirty months old. This early breeding requires early develop ment, which can only be secured by extra care and attention and an abun- dance of wholesome and nutritious food that will produce plenty of bone and lean meat. but not an excess of fat. The tendency to get fat should never be encouraged. yet continuous. steady growth is always desirable, and any check or setback Is harmful to the future usefulness of the animal.
 Early breeding Is desira ble as if tends to develop the milk producing function fin connection with the growth and development of the animal body If your COW is fo give more milk than the needs If nature demand the milk producing function in it's growth and development must be balanced against The development If other parts of the body. If delayed until the animal Is fully maiured il will always remain fin q somewhat dormant condition.
 The illustration shows cheap calf stanehion used by many dalrymen The stanchion is three feet high. and the distance from center to center Is one and one half feet. Tue stanchion is built of the ground on a board plat form SC as to prevent the ground be coming muddy in rainy weather. This could easily be built as a panel in q fence between two posts. or. as we have It arranged in our calf shed in the college. along one side of the stalls
 Practically as good results can be obtained from raising calves on skim milk, with the addition of some grain substitutes. as will be secured where the calves are allowed to run with the COW. Some very interesting exhibits have been carried CD at the different experiment. stations with beef animals and II was found that at the age Of two years there was very little differ ence that could be detected in ths calves raised with the COW and fhosf raised on skimmilk Charles II Al word.

THE FEEDER.

The best feeds for sheep are clover. alfalfa. sorghum, cowpeas. corn fod- der. oat straw. turnips and beets. All of these used in connection with light feeds of corn or oats will insure sound. healthy sheep.
 Bran For Lambs.
 While bran is not especially desir- able for fattenlng sheep. 1t is quite satisfactory for lambs. provided it is not used too freely. It. however. can be used to better advantage for dairy animals and even for borses.
 Tho kohIrabi Stock.
 A dairyman speaks q good word for the kohlrabi as feed for milk cows and sheep. He says it is better milk producer than the swede t1rnip and can be grown as second crop. like the cabbage. bearing transpIanting re- markedly well. Of course. being q sort of half cabbage and half turnip, 1t has a somewhat strong taste and should be fed in limited quantity and only just after milking. 1t is grown like the cabbage.
 Siiage For Steers and Sheep.
 have fed silage fin small way to steers for four seasons and find II a very satisfactory as well us very economical feed. says an Indiana breeder The cattle do not tire of It and keep in splendid health. In the last half of the feeding supplement the silage with corn and cob meal, to which one can nrofifably add some oil. meal or cottonseed meal. feed silage morning and night and clover hay al noon I cannot see why sllaee k not as economical for the small feeder as the large. provided men club together and four or five neighbors buy their cattle and exchange work. find t excellent for breeding ewes. The silags must be sweet.
 Older Cattle Best For Feed Lot
 The results secured In the feed tots at the Purdue university experiment station relative to the influence of age on the economy and profit from fat tening showed that the older cattle will make more rapid gains. improve more Tn value per pound. attain higher finish and return a greater profit If put in the feed lot at the same time and given the same rafions during a six months feeding period, though the calves will make much cheaper gains This justifies the ex- fensfve practice of large cattle feeders in confirming to handle older cattle. in spite of the many advocates of yeariing or baby beef production. For those who produce calves these ex- perinents show that the production Of yeariIng beef would be the better method.

RAISING THE COLT.
Some Points by Breeder en Feeding
 and Training.


 While the colt is running with ifs mother it is under her protecttou, but as seon as it k weanea it is wholly dependent on us for care and sus- tenance. | believe II Is the most erit- ical time of the horses life. says a successful Vermont breeder Now is the time to secure the animals couti. dcnce. and it can be gained In no other way than by kindness, and the horse or colt that is subdned by fear and brutal beating Is never the same ami maj again. and its value in dollars and cents is iessened by this process.
 Many celebrated trainers have given evidence on this subject that much mere can be done with a horse by Kindness than with force. by gentle caress than a cruel blow, hs a lump of sugar than a heavy whip. Many men who should know better are be- set bs the idea that a horse can be kept under control only by brute force.
