Test your COWS.
No waste land 81 the farm" Is !
good motto.
Tho rundown farm 10 where tho
sheep are needed most.
Tho wy to enjoy the fair Is to have
some kind Of exhibit there.
Corn can be- too ripe for putting In
the silo. Guard against It.
Current and gooseberry bushes II
set out In the fall should be we'll
mulched.
Easier to keep the hogs healthy
than 1t is to get them well after. they
are once sick.
The drudgery Of the farm can be
largely eliminated by planning and
sy'stematizing the work.
What was done with. the cultivator
after the last time through the corn?
Hope it was not left out to weather.
When digging potatoes be sure they
do not lie In the sun. They will turn
green II they do and will have q bitter
taste. n
Don't let the sheep get wet. Takes
q long time to dry out their heavy
coats Of fleece. Provide shelter. Il
will pay you.
Last call for the state, county or
township fair. OF course you ought
to attend. It win do you good and
wife will enjoy it.
II the tield is not tile drained and is
inclined to be a little wet, pillow an
occasional deep furrow. This will
carry OF much of the surplus water
and make your crops better.
Not the farm work first, but the ed.
ucation Of the children. Days taken
from the school for work on the farm
should be placed on the debit rather
than the credit side Of the account.
Don't let the long ladder stand
against the building after getting
through with it,for the night. A strong
wind might throw it over to the
wrecking Of the ladder and damage Of
other things.
Pears are best ripened in doors.
The time to pick is determined, first,
by their known season of ripening,
and, second, by the ease with which
the stem parts from the branch when
the fruit is slightly lifted. Most pears
are marketed in q green. but mature,
state.
Cow-testing associations as organ.
lied and managed in many Of the
states now include between 20 and 80
dairy farmers who. own 800 or more
cows. The purpose is to make an in
dividual study Of each COW in the
herd. The plan ID to secure q compe-
tent man to visit the farms once each
month and remain there for "a hours.
While there he weighs the feed which
the COW eats. also weighs and tests
the milk. This 10 done not merely to
see how much milk and butter tat the
cows win give IN year, but also to
determine the cost Of producing that
milk and butter fat, and to ascertain
the profits He also makes q, study .of
each herd and suex estS IMPROVEMENT.
For this work the man whom the
association employs usually receives
81 per COW per year for each COW
tested, together with his board ana
lodging. Besides this expense there u
an assessment Of from Is cents TO 81
per member. for covering necessary
expenses. ias8t }s 70 f3:s55 u "a
