Every farmer who makes much
money on hogs must have perma'

stoppaVe Of the Teat.

Dr.. David Roberts, Wisconsin
state Veterinarian says that a very
common trouble in the ordinary
dairy is to find an animal with the
point of the teat closed, either due
TO a bruise of the teat iself or to
infection of the milk duct which
causes little seab to form over
the point of the teat and unless
this is properly handled with care
and cleanliness, the infection is apt
TO cause loss of the entire quar-
ter. -... 49,. ..-
The proper manner in which to
handle and treat such cases is to
thoroughly wash the teat in an anti
septic solution. then dip teal
plug into a healing ointment and
insert it into the point of the
teat, allowing same to remain from
one milking to another. In this
manner closure of the point Of
the teats can be overcome in
very simple and satisfactory way.

can be possibly avoided. as there
is much danger Of injecting the en-

To Drain q CisteTn

Here is a plan for draining a
cistern; is by the siphon principle,
and is very quick and easy when
understood. 1t can be used in
any yard that has sewerage and an
outside slop sink. The way to
start the flow is to take a rubber
hose, fill with water, thus exhaust
ing the air out Of it; then while
one person drops the lower end in
to the vault, another person inserts
the intaking end into a full bucket
of water and quickly lowers bucket
and all into the cistern. The only
thing else necessary is to have the
outlet of the hose lower than the
inlet. The flow thus started will
continue until the cistern is entirely
drained. | hope l have made II
plain enough to understand.-Mrs

PAY Your Subscriptions

Ordinarily we expect pretty good re-
turns from our subscribers during the
months of November and December
But this year, owing to the bad condi-
ton of the roads most of the time and
the very cold weather part of the time,
many people could not come to town ex-
cept to do little shopping for Christmas
and they were then too busy to think of
anything else. Now that the holidays
are about over and the sleighing is good
we hope that all of our subscribers who
are i'm arrears will come in and pay mp
to date. And in order to even up it
might be a good thing to pay IA year in
advance. We know that dollar or two
is very small sum to most of our pat
rons, but the whole sum we have to
carry costs MS not less than hundred
dollars year in interest.
