HINTS FOR FARMERS
FEEDING the Colt.

Colts, like all other young animals,
cannot be fed by any hard-fast set Of
rules. TO successfully feed colts re.
Quires good Judgment. patience and
close observation. Colts at weaving
time require liberal feeding at frequent
intervals. Oats are the most desirable
grain for them. In addition to this,
cracked corn may be used. A fair al
lUwance Of oats and bran equal parts
for colt five months old would be two
to four pounds. 1t would pay to cut
the amount of bran and add cracked
corn TO the ration. A ration of four
parts oats, one part bran and one part
corn should prove satisfactory.
While the grain ration is important
IN feeding colts. attention should also
lie given to the roughage. This may
consist Of mixed hay, bright clover
free from dust and mold. oat stra W
md corn stover. Sheaf oats either cut
or whole are very desirable for colts.
The roughage should be fed literally.
but the colts should not be allowed to
eat all they will eat. as such will work
injury on the digestive system.-Cor.

Corn For the Silo.

1t is our opinion. says Hoard's Dairy.
fnan, that ordinary field corn mixes as
satisfactorily for silo purposes as any
corn that can be raised. If a finer
stalk is desired than is usually OBJ
tanned in planting it in hills for the
growing of ears, this can be overcome
by using more seed per acre Pro
lessor Hacker of the Minnesota eX.
sNrimcnt station has for years sown
as high as one hushel of corn per acre
anu obtains a very fine stalk. He
thinks silage made from this kind Of
corn is more satisfactory than when
made from corn sown far enough apart
so that large ears develop.
We are inclined to think that dint
corn would not yield as much per acre
as II larger variety of corn.

While the wild azaleas are not rs

As the white honeysuckle another

Some Of the Japanese aZaleas have
been cultivated to q great extent. and
some of these varieties ut the present
time excel all others in size of the in
dividual flowers; but, as is the case
with all the cultivated varieties, they
are entirely lacking in fragrance.
However, they are extremely hand

thousands for the Easter season.
When one purchases an azalea from
the florist 1t is usually In the height
of its beauty. being n mass of bloom.
Now. the thing desired is to keep 1t
in this condition as long rs possible.
In order to do this keep the plant in

GROWING THE AZALEA.
Varieties Of This Beautiful Plant Found
In Many Countries.


The hardy azaleas. cultivated In
English gardens and now receiving
the attention Of cultivators both in
Europe and this country. originated
from the Mediterranean Azalea ponti-
ca, the North American and the Chi
nese and Japanese azaleas. These
have been much intercrossed. and the
respective types are now connected by
so many intermediate forms that 1t is
not easy to classify them under their
respective species.
They were first popularity known as
American aZaleas and subsequently
after they had received much atten-
ton in Belgium, became known MS
Client azaleas. Now they are being
cultivated so largely in Japan that
they are frequently termed Japanese
aZaleaS. A collective term for them is
hardy hybrid aZaleas. Turkey has Il

Probably the most common cause Of
failure in raising calves on skimmilk
comes from feeding too much Of it,
says the Homestead. There are two
ways to half starve a calf on skim

too much. II too little Is fed there is
not enough food digested to make good
the waste and furnish growth; If too
much Is fed the stomach is overtaxed
