Iook Well to the
Care of Fall Cows

The COWS on well managed dairy
farm will now begin to treshen.
The season finds farm work well ad,
yanced. Now make up your mind
tb.+ the little calf is worth while
tak;no care of. Provide plenty OF
clean straw for a bed; let it hayn
nlentv of exercise and light; feed
.mother's milk regularly for about
two weeks, then substitute gradual
|ly the sweet, warm, skim milk. Add
4 tablespoonful of cooked flax mush
to each feed. Don't oyerfeed. Let
the little calf have hay, ensilage and
feed as soon as it will take it,
The fall COW is going to be the
money maker in spite of the drought.
A dry COW is a boarder and will re-
uuire good deal Of hay or other
food to winter it. It is better to
feed we'll smaller herd, than to
half starve large herd as the pro-
| fits are made from what cow pro-
duces above the cost of body main
tenance.
The farmers who hive been follow
| ing the advice. and instruction so
often given in The Northwestern
Agriculturist, to weigh and test the
milk from each COW in order to
know which are the profitable pro-
ducers, should now be able to set
their own standard. Perhaps they
will begin by culling out the COWS
which produce less than $50 pc unds
of butter fat each year. A cow
should be mature, normal and well
fed. We will find that even then
there are many cows which will pro-
duce less than 100 pounds of fat
during a year.
Iwant to say with all the en-
phasis at my command do not sell
your best cows even though you can
get few dollars more from the
stock buyer We will never make
any progress in the dairy business
until we know our good from our
poor cows. Not from the amount
of flesh they carry nor even from
the amount Of milk they give. We
must know the quality of this milk
and the cost of production, in order
to be able to judge intelligently the
value of a cow for dairy purposes.
Now is this trouble worth while?
The writer has herd of nineteen
cows, registered and grade Guern-
seys. Most of these freshen during
the fall. During the past eight
months they have produced $1,020
at the creamery. Calves and culls
have been sold for S287. The re-
turns last winter ranged from So to
S2.75 for one dollars worth of food.
On the Lakeside Dairy Farm we
make a practice of weighing the
milk daily, and testing it once a
month.
The growth of grass this fall is
at standstill. The scarcity Of hay
| dIlU lCCu Will cause 1dIluCIO W CCOIi-
omize on the ration in order to have
something to feed when spring
comes. Gull the herd now if need
be. By all means keep up the flow
of the fresh cows by new pastures.
Feed bought or raised ensilage, fod-
der corn. hay, or whatever is avail
able. If COW is worth feeding, it
is worth feeding to its capacity.
We need the dairy products this
winter as never before.
Let not the present situation dis
courage us, but let each give his
best efforts to raise the standard Of
dairying. Northwestern Agricul-
i tIlriSf

FARMERS STOP
BIC DEER HUNT
SAY DEER DO BUT LITTLE DAM
AGE-FIND FORAGE IN
WOODED PASTURES.

Council Bluffs, Dec. ga man who
was in the vicinity of Avoca on the
day the much heralded deer drive did
not occur, states that the farmers OF
the region refused to allow the deer
hunters to go upon their farms for
the purpose Of corralling the deer.
The talk of holding monster drive
to round up and contin the herd ct
tracted attention over a wide section
of country, and it is said that men
came from many towns to see or take
part in the sport.
It has been frequently asserted
that the farmers In the region where
the herd ranges were in favor of doing
away with the animals on the ground
that they destroyed much grain, and
also that some Of the bucks were a
menace to children on the way to
school. The farmers seem to have
pretty effectually disproved the story
by forbidding the hunters entering
their farms to modest the deer. One
of the farmers whose land affords
much of the timber where the herd
finds shelter, wrote letter to num-
Der of newspapers stating that the
pleasure which lovers of nature find
in the sight Of the graceful animals
far outweighs any damage they do to
crops.
The farmers say the deerAherd with
the cattle around the haystacks and in
the stalk fields, but during the sum-
mer months they are said to find most
of their forage in the wooded pastures.
They have never shown disposition
to be quarrelsome, and sentiment
among the farmers seem to be in
favor of protecting the herd instead OF
breaking it up.
1t was. said by the local men who
saw the hunters that there were many
pistols among the party, and that ii
the drive had occurred it was impos-
sible that many of the deer would not
have been surreptitiously killed A
good many people are talking of TAX
ing legal steps to prevent raid on
the herd by those who might hope to
secure venison, heads or hides during
the drive.

awarded the position when the new

The old catcher Is generally re-
garded as a good manager. Most fol-
lowers of the game believe that had

900 or 100000. He claims to have
had an agreement with his employers
to receive q commission OF per cent
for such sales which amounts to either
$12,50o to $4,000. This is known as
count three
Question the Reductions
Count two is based on the exercises
of options by Sewers In which he
claimed the right was part OF his duty
and that by agreement with his en4-
ployers he was to receive one-han the
amount saved by such reductions. Eor
this service he claimed he netted the
company some $s,47, through thed
purchases of coal lanos under the con.y
tract price. The defense stated that
there we're no savings made by this
method by the company and that he Ii
entitled to nothing on that count. Tho
explanation made by the defense Is
that in optioning field the coal de.
posts are ~ established until the
drilling has been done and that the
company wants only the coal bearing
land and such reductions claimed by
the plaintiff are in reality no reduction
but the mere paying for what 10 actu-
ally wanted in the purchase OF the
land.
Ruled Out by Court.
The first count dealt with extra
salary, but the court held in his ruling
on the motion for a directed verdict, /
that by the rule of accord and salts
faction, the salary claim of the plain.
tiff was fully satisfied inasmuch as the
evidence tended to show that all bills
for salary and expenses were met
monthly by the defendant company
upon the receipt of the account at the'
office of the company.
