Our jolly good friend Mr.. AL
Wheeler, who has long been known
as an expert in landing the finny
tribe out OF their watery abodes to
natures green shores has suddenly
become famous from the fact that
a huge sparkler weighing 1z1-2 lbs
was caught by him last week.
All OF those who truly wish
To know just how to catch a fish
Are choosing for themselves a pal
known to all rs "good friend Al.y
For lie tells each one all about
The true art of catching trout.
And the very, very kind OF line,
Whether it must be course or fine.
Also the exact kind OF crook
That needs be upon their hook.
And the kind and length of rod,
And where to take their seats o. sod
In short he's the "man of the hour,
For having over fish such power.
Now this is the tru hahe good folks
say
That ever since that lucky day,
This good nan realized his wish
OF landing forth such a big fat fish
The troubled stream did, cease to
roar,
The waves grew calm from, shore
to shore.
The waters high, begun to faII,r
There was a quiet over all. c
Now by this time you auwill know
That this man has become quite, a
hero.
l tell this not to make him glory;
But to add all the facts OF this true
story.

Feeding Meal, Wet or Dry.

Many Of our farmers seem to hold
the opinion that feeding meal wet to
their cows will bring better results
than when fed dry One old farmer
makes the remark, how can the COW
get any goodness out of a pan of dry
mealY yet Notwithstanding the fact
that so many dairymen hold to the
practice of feeding the meal wet, the
experiments to date indicate that bet
ter results are obtained by feeding
it dry. Professor Jordan, Of the Maine
Experiment Station, fed a bunch Of
calves corn and cob meal with long
hay in dry form, as against hay which
was run through a feed cutter, mois-
tened and sprinkled with corn aud cob
meal The results were in favor Of
the dry feeding The gain was great
err, and less feed was required for
100 pounds of gain. Professor Jordan
also conducted an experiment with two
herds Of dairy cows, one herd was fed
dry feed while the feed Of the other
was moistened. The greater yield Of
milk was obtained from the herd that
received the dry feed.

In an important interview with Gift
ford Plnchot the government forester
and a member of the Country Life
Commission, recently appointed by Mr.
Roosevelt, given to Edward l. Far
rington, the following points are elab-
GRATED:
The things which the Country Life
Commission desires to do, above all
else, Is to make the fact plain that
there is tremendous problem before
the American farmer to-day
The things which must be secured
for the farmer are better farming ma.
terials, better business and a better
living. The commission is concerned
with the two latter.
Everything which has to do with
making farm life efficient and pleas
ant will receive particular attention
for this is one of the most important
Of all agricultural problems.
The commission Will make no at
tempt to impose anything on the farm
er, to dictate to him, or to carry pa
ternalism to an Objectionable degree
The facts are to be assembled in as
complete form as possible and placed
before the farmer in logical order.

Feedinr MILK Cows.

Milk contains water, fat, protein
(casein and curd), sugar and ash, and
these are all made from the constitu-
ents Of the food. If sufficient protein.
fat and carbohydrates are not con-
tained in the food given her, the cow
supplies this deficiency for a time by
drawing on her own body, and gradu-
ally begins to shrink In quantity and
quality of milk, or both. The stingy
feeder cheats himself as well as the
cow. She may suffer from hunger,
although she is full of swale and hay,
but she also becomes poor and does
not yield the milk and butter she
should. Her milk glands are a wond-
erful machine, but they cannot make
milk casein (curd) out Of the constitu-
ents In coarse, unappetizing, indiges-
tible swale hay or sawdust any more
than the farmer himself can make but
ter from skim milk. She must not
only have a generous supply Of good
food, but it must contain sufficient
amounts Of the nutrients needed for
making milk Until this fact is UNI
derstood and appreciated successful.
profitable dairying is out of the ques-
ton. Many forcible illustrations of It's
truthfulness have been furnished by
the agricultural experiment stations

Profit from Poultry.


foultrymen estimate that 1t costs l
cent apiece to produce an egg. The
estimate is based on the fact that the
hen lays 40 eggs In the year. In other
words, where the fowls are confined to
runs and the feed must be purchased,
IL costs 10 cents a month or S1.20 a.
year TO maintain hen. If the hen is
an Indifferent layer and gives but sixty
eggs IN year. her eggs cost the poul-
tryman cents each.
An experiment conducted by the Cor
nell experiment station in 1902 showed
mat the average cost of feed for a
dozen eggs was 90 cents, or about q
OF a cent an egg. The cost for each
hen for the year was 99.6 cents. At
that time wheat was sold at S1.45 a
hundred pounds, while at the present
time 1t is 81; bran sold at $1.35 a hun
dred pounds and it is now $1.SO; and
meat scraps cost $215 a hundred
pounds and now we pay $40. So at
the present increased price of feed,
the cost Of feeding the hen is easily
~ cents a year more than it was in
1902.
To make poultry profitable on the
farm it is necessary to breed for bet
ter laying. This is done by installing
trap nests In the henhouses, and each
year picking out the best layers and
breeding only from such. The farmer
must grade up his stock. He must
get rid of the mongrel birds; he must
drive out the drones, and must encour-
age the workers. The farm must pro-
duce better poultry and more of 1t.
There are advantages on the farm
for poultry raising that the poultry
man does not have, and if the latter,
in many ways handicapped, can make
poultry keeping successful business,
the farmer should at least make the
work a valuable adjunct to his In
come. Properly managed poultry can
be made the most profitable crop on
the farm-investment, expense and
labor considered.
1t is argued by some farmers that
their hens cost them practically moth
Ing, as they have free range and can
gather all the food they need. There
is some truth in that, and there also
is some truth in the fact that farm
ers' flocks seldom yield a profit COM
pared with stock in the hands of a reg
ular poultryman.

Work Hours OF Farmers.

Professor Boss, of the Minnesota
Agricultural College, says that statis-
tics of the actual hours Of labor on the
farms investigated show that farmers
work nine hours day in summer ana
between four and five in winter. Pro
fessor Bailey, Of the Farm Life Com
mission, tells the story Of the school
ma'am working from 8 to 4 until she
married a farmer, and had 10 WORK
from 4 to g. Moral, schoolma ans
make good wives for farmers.

Nitrogen.

While visiting a practical farmer a
few weeks ago he said that where
everything was fed out on the farm
and the manure returned to the soil 1t
should grow richer instead Of poorer
and that furthermore there was less
connected with the farm when 1t was
conducted on these principles than
when the system was varied from year
to year
One thing is certain, the growing
and feeding Of live stock on the farms
compels the growth Of crops to feed
that are best adapted for the produc-
ton of flesh and animal products.
Prominent among these crops are Glow
er, alfalfa and the other nitrogen gath
ering plants that possess a high feed
ing value and are relished by animals
on account Of their palatability.
We cannot too often repeat the
fact that the farmers who follow a
short crop rotation, in which leguma
is grown every third year, need not
worry about maintaining an adequate
supply OF nitrogen, providing he feeds
these crops to live stock and saves
the manure, both liquid and solid, and
returns 1t to the soil. When nitrogen
Gus grain foods are purchased and
fed to the animals in connection with
the homegrown foods the increase In
nitrogen is still greater-Agricultur

Good Dairy Animals.

There Is plenty of good dairy blood
to go around. but there are too many
dairyrnen who are not looking for it.
Some dairymen raise every heifer, re-
gardIess of it's individuality or breed
ing. while some other dairymen with
much better herd will not raise any
Of his heifer calves. What a great i'm
provement 1t would make If some ex-
change Of calves could be made so that
the man with conveniences and natural
ability could grow the very best calves
from the milk-producing cows.
