LIVES SAVED AT SMALL COST
Figures Showing Expenditures For
the Maintenance Of Tubercu-
tosis Sanatoriums.

In comparative study Of the cost
of maintenance in thirty tuberculosis
sanatoriums the National Association
for the Study and Prevention Of Tu-
berculosis found that the food cost In
most of the institutions represented
one-third of the annual expenditures.
The average daily food cost per pa
tient was $O.544. The expenditures for
salaries and wages represented nearly
another third. being $0.481 per day per
patient out of a total of $1.669. The
fuel. oil and light cost was $0.206 per
capita per diem, or about one-eighth
OF the total cost. The daily cost in
the several Institutions ranged all the
way from $0.946 per patient to $2.555.
In the far west and southwest, as in
Colorado and New Mexico and Cali
fornia, the cost was higher than In tho
east, in New York and New England.
being $2.025 per patient as against
$1.74S. The total expenditures of the
thirty institutions were $1.363. .953.2S.
while the total receipts from all
sources were $1,54S.525.74. More than
70 per cent. of the receipts were re-
ceived from public funds and private
benefactions. only 28.S per cent. being
from patients. Stated in another way
only 80 per cent. OF the total expendi-
lures were received from patients. the
remainder being made up from other
sources.

Experience Is Invaluable

Unless the dairyman has had consid-

visable for him to scarf in heavily

perience teaches that great many
who have been desirous of building up

tie have spent fortunes in securing
them. only to be disappointed. due to
the fact that they have not given them
the proper care and attention that
animals of such improved nature de-
niand. On the other hand. there have
been those who have started in with a
small number of pure-bred animals
who have made great success. and
have in mind at this time one breeder
who is perhaps one Of the most popu-
lar breeders OF dairy cattle in the
United States. who boasts of the fact
that he never bought but one COW. This
was great many years ago. He
writes me that he sold in one sale
80 head Of COWS. calves. etc.. which
brought him over $4,000. and since
that time he has sold six head Of

BENEFIT DERIVED FROM ..-"
SPRAYING FRUIT TREES
Under Average Conditions Fair Estimate About One
Fourth of Total Fruit Is Saved


of that shown above. but only by ia.
king the dropped fruit into account
can a correct estimate of the value OF
the spraying be made. When there Is
an unusual amount of worminess and
the best spraying. the benefit due to
spraying will often amount to half OF
the total fruit borne by the tree. as
was shown by some Of our plots.
which in the case OF a tree with the
same amount of fruit as cited above.
would amount to two barrels instead
of one out of three picked being saved
by spraying. But under average con.
dit!ons. 1t seems a fair estimate that
about one-fourth of the total fruit, or
cne-third of the fruit actually picked
is saved as perfect fruit by spraying.
This is shown graphically in the &C.
companying illustration. Such a state
ment of the benefit derived from
spraying is not as striking as to say
that but one apple in one hundred OF
those picked as wormy. but the for
mer statement merely clearly states
the facts and only one in a hundred
Of the picked apples may be wormy.
and yet the real benefit from spraying
may not be as great as on other trees.

Seven Points Worth CONSIDERING.
In a barn for dairy cows the
following points should be observed as
essentials: Convenience. light, heat.
ventilation. sanitation. confinement of
odors and cost. From the standpoint
OF convenience. the cows should face
feeding alley ways that are wide
enough for both grain and roughage to
be taken to them in the easiest and
quickest possible manner. As a rule.
It is advisable to have two feed alley
ways with the cows facing outward.
At the four ends Of these two feeding
alley ways should be placed the grain
room. hay chutes and the siIos. Light
and sunshine are very essential In the
dairy barn and they. together with
heat keep the barn dry and make Il

visable than to give him q well-bred

The orchard owner is chiefly inter-
ested in the effect of spraying on the
amount of picked fruit free from
worms. In most cases the value of
spraying was due to reducing the
amount of wormy windfalls, or. in 9TH
er words. preventing worminess so
that the fruit remained on the tree.
On the unsprayed trees an average Of
&c per cent. of the total fruit dropped
as wormy. and 15.7 per cent. was
wormy when picked
In the four orchards in 1908, about
% per cent. of the total fruit was
wormy drops on the unsprayed trees
and five per cent. on the sprayed
trees.
An average of all the sprayed plots
shows that of the total crop of fruit
on any tree. Al per cent. drops as
wormy and Al per cent. is wormy
picked.
Subtracting the percentage which
drops plus the percentage which is
wormy when picked from 100. gives
the percentage of the total crop which
is picked free from worms. which is
the essential matter for the fruit
grower. says bulletin Of the New
Hampshire experiment station. On

milk at each milking period and by
testing a days yield once q month to
determine the percentage Of butter
fat, 1t is a very simple matter for the
farmer to know at the end Of the year
how much milk and butter-fat each of
his cows have produced. During the
years gone by. 1t has been common
policy for the farmer to sell his good
cows and in many instances keep
those cows on his farm which were
actually not paying for the feed they
consumed. He did not do this because
1t was his desire to do SO. but he was
not aware that there was SO much dif-
ference between the different indi-
viduals In his herd. Today the wise
farmer and breeder has had 1t proven
to him that the above method is the
only one by which he can accurately
determine the true producing value of
his cows. In the future the farmer
who is paying close attention to his
business and deriving from 1t the
greatest of profits will weigh and test
the milk produced by each Of his cows.

ones.
Thus. by continually breeding bet
ter animals and saving the best that
are produced. It Is only n course OF n
short time until the dairy herd will be
one OF the greatest sources Of profit
on the farm. One of the great objec-
tions to dairy farming In the west at
this time as well as one of the reasons
why the dairy herds In this country do
not produce more largely than they do
is because the arrangement Of the
farm Is not convenient for the busi-
ness. We are now undergoing the
transition period between grain and
stock farming to stock farming and
daIrying. and more or less time will be
consumed in rearranging the farms
and equipment to make them suitable
for dairying.
