DON'T RIDlcULE YOUR BOY.

Many boy has gene to bed in
tears because his father criticized or
denounced his effort at playing the
violin; made. fun of a simple little
composition Or story which he wrote; /;
discouraged his attempt to make SOL
little mechanical device, or threw a
VIZ. blanket cn his dreams, laughing
at his prediction at what he would do
in the future.
Al man who has recently come into
great prominence i'm his profession
SAYS that when, tremblingly, he told
his father what he wanted to be, he
was told that a padded cell was the
Gully place for a boy with such crazy
ideas, and that he was forced for
years to do that which God had for
bidden in every fiber of his being, and
against which every drop OF blood
in him protested.
The father who has made up his
mind that his son must continue
his business and keep his estate in,
tact, is not a position to decide on
the boys bent-his special attitude
He is prejudice at the very outset.
The reason why there are so many
mediocre men and women I'm the

cause they never found their places

The remarkable work they have
accomplished in that time can be told
very briefly. June first a year ago
the concentrator was receiving and
treating 500 tons of ore daily. To-
day the eoncentrator is receiving and
treating little over 1900 tons of
ore daily. Beside this tonnage there
is being shipped from Copper Flat

Donate ore daily to Garfield plant of

the enormous gain that has been
made in operating and construction
divisions of Nevada Consolidated.

never before equaled in a copper
camp. Also it is one that is being
added TO every day with new ac-
complishments and that during the
next year will be made to show gain
of 80 per cent or more in copper
output from McGill, with still more
to follow. Also it gives an idea of
what may be expected from Giroux
in the course of another year, during
which that company will have COM

! ROTATION FOR AN so-AcRE

A Grundy county, Iowa. correspondent
has an SO-acre farm, fenced and cross
fenced into three fields. He proposes to
make it into four fields and adopt a rota-
ton as follows: First. pasture; second,
meadow; third. oats; fourth. corn, the first
year. The next year. first. corn; second.
PASTURE; third meadow; fourth, oats. He
asks US, says Wallace's Farmer. what we
think Of this rotation.
In this section VIZ would begin with
corn on the clover or other pasture, then
follow with some kind OF spring grain, and
seed down to clover and timothy. The
third year we would take u crop of clover
hay, and pasture the fourth; then pillow up
for corn. Or he can shorten up the rota-
ton one year by leaving out the spring
grains altogether and using winter wheat
or rye, then seeding down to clover and
timothy. take a hay crop the third year
and pasture the fourth. We believe It
would be possible that far north to grow

Farm Notes
KEEP COWS IN OPEN SHEDS

Cows that are allowed to run into open
sheds with hangers do better thar when
kept in stables During an experiment =
were cared for in this way in a shed ax
IS feet, having manager on each side ana
bull pens in two corners, and the results
were considered most satisfactory.
The cows keep much cleaner than when
stabbed and the milking stable is In a
more sanitary condition.. consequently IL is
sasier to produce clean milk. BY thls
method there is less difficulty in proNld-
ing COWS with an abundance OF fresh air,
and they are more vigorous ana health!
and nave better appetites than when kept
In the stable.
Labor is saved, as the shed can be
bedded much more easily and quickly
than stalls. There is little stable cleaning
to be done. and the manure is hauled d.
rectly from the shed to the field at any
time most convenient and when least ua!li-
age is done the land by
Another advantage is the saving OF fer
tiiity much more completely. Many barns
do not have cement floors, and so there IS
more or less waste of the liquid portion OF
the nurc Since land is becoming so
%high-priced no farmer can afford to allow
any fertility to be wasted, ana by inns
method all the liquid is saved, as 1t Is alb
sorbed by the bedding.
IL only enough bedding is used to keep
the cows clean they tramp the manure
so thoroughly that it does not heat TO
make the air impure. If manure is hauled
directly from the stable to the feld there
is a considerable portion of the year when
1T must be allowed to accumulate In the
yard, where 1t will leach out badly, or II
must be hauled on to the land When 1T Is
so wet and soft hat much injury is done
by tramping. This is especially true on
+, clay soil.
J on many dairy farms the question OF
getting sufficient help Is becoming such q
problem as to interfere seriously with this
branch of agriculture. AS 1t seems to be
the opinion OF the majority of people who
have practiced this method that 1t saves
labor. this is one Of the strong points in Its
favor.
The Information at hard is not sufficient
from which to draw definite conclusions
for all sections OF the country and an
conditions. The system has been a marked
success wherever we can find that it has
j been ried,-Professor w. j. Fraser.
