TREATING SCOURS
I'm CALVES
By PROF. 6. C. HUMPHREY
Wisconsin COLLEGE of Agriculture


Calves at the university farm are
specially treated for calf scours. First,
special care is taken to avoid scours
by keeping the calves In clean, bright,
well-lighted and well-ventilated quar-
tiers. We feed them regularly until
four weeks old on two to six pounds
of their mothers milk three times
Gaily. Care is taken to have the tenn
perature of the milk as near that OF
freshly drawn milk as possible and al
ways to have the calf pail scrupulous.
Iy clean.
In spite of all precaut1on we now
and then have cases of scours among
our calves. For the past two years
we have successfully treated such
cases as follows: AS soon as symp-
toms appear, two to four tablespoon
fuIs of castor oil are mixed with one
half pint of milk and given to the calf.
This is followed In tour to six hours
by one teaspoonful of mixture of
one part saIol and two parts sub
nitrate of bismuth. 1t can also be
given with one-half pint Of new milk
or the powder placed on the tongue

Almost every community in south.
ern Wisconsin has a tiler, man who
lays tile two spades deep for twenty
cents rod and three spades deep
for Thirty cents a rod, the farmer to
board him in each case. The old
tiler frequently manages to surround
himself with an air of mystery like
the man who, with two small willow
sticks, can so play with the super
natural as to find the best place to
dig a well. He is little less than a
wizard. He can lay tile the right
way with his eyes shut. The whole
community swears by him.
Once in awhile, however, the tile
do not do their work as they should.
Some lines may refuse to remove any
water at all. OF course, the water
Is to blame. Last July a letter came
from Green county saying that the
water In certain line of tile was not
behaving itself. 1t would not flow.
Having some work in that part of the
state, member of the staff of the
department of soils called to see what
was the matter with the water. The
tile in the trench were uncovered for
about 200 feet and the difficulty re-
vealed itself. There was no water
In the trench when the tile were laid
or else the mistake would probably
n0t have been made. Instead of hav-
ing a fall of two inches or more in
100 feet toward the outlet, there was
rise of about five inches in that dis
lance The water refused to run
over the ridge thereby made. The
only remedy was to cut down the
ridge
Some areas that are springy have
fall so great that laying tile by
guess is reasonably safe. The trench
may be dug about three feet deep and
so finished that the water does not
stand in any one place. 1t is then
ready for the title to be laid and I'M
covered. Where the fall is limited,
some of it may be wasted b. relying
solely upon the water in the trench
for a guide. In such places and in
almost all places where there is no
water in the trench, 1t is best to have
levels taken with a surveyors instru-
ment in accordance with which grade
laths may be set. as shown in the
drawing.

OFFICIAL INVITATION
TO AMERICANS
HOW ROBERT ROGERS, MINISTER
OF THE INTERIOR, IN WINNIPEG
ADDRESS, ISSUES WELCOME
OF AMERICANS TO WEST
ERN CANADA.

During the course of a reply to an
address presented to Hon. Robert Rog.
ers, the newly appointed Minister of
the Interior of Canada at a banquet
given at Winnipeg in his honor that
gentleman spoke on immigration. The
tone of his remarks was that he intend.
ed to pursue an aggressive and for.
ward policy in the matter of immigra-
ton. In part, he said:
"The most important branch per-
haps of that department Qnterior) is
that of immigration.
"If there is anything more than an
other we want here 1t is a greater pom
ulation, and it shall be my duty to pre-
sent to the people in all parts of the
world where desirable emigrants are
to be found the advantages and the
great possibilities of this country. We
have received in the past reasonably
large immigration from south of the
international boundary, and in this
connection let me say just a word for
our American cousins who have found
happy homes amongst us, and those
whom we hope to welcome in greater
numbers in the years to come. There
are hundreds of thousands OF them in
our prairie provinces, happy in the en-
1oyment Of a freedom as great as they
ever knew, and all contributing in a
material way towards the development
of Canada. We are not blind to their
value as settlers. They come better
equipped with scientific farming
knowledge than most of our emf
grants, and constitute without doubt
the wealthiest class of emigrants any
new country has ever known. AS
head Of the immigration department 1t
will be my privilege to offer them a
welcome hearty and sincere, and to
so contribute to their welfare that I'M
der the protecting folds of the Union
Jack they will enjoy as great degree
of liberty and happiness as under the
Stars and Stripes. The Borden gov
eminent cherishes nothing but the
kindliest feelings for the people of the
great republic to the south, and will
do all in it's power to increase the
bonds of kinship and neighborly good
feeling that has SO long existed.
(Hear, hear.)
while we adopt a vigorous emil
grafton policy in that country, we win
also adopt the same vigorous policy in
other parts of the world. We will go
to England, Ireland and Scotland, and
every other country irrespective of
race, creed or nationality, where we
can find suitable and desirable emf
grants for this great country. I think
much good work can be done in those
countries, and especially perhaps at
the present time in England, Ireland
and Scotland. Now, then, it will be
my duty to stir up that policy in the
most vigorous manner possible"

Suppose the head of tile-drainage
line is foot higher than the outlet
Then If conditions are such that the
outlet may be 312 feet deep, a fall of
11a feet may be obtained for the
entire line by making the head only
three feet deep. Also, if two stakes
are driven on opposite sides of the
proposed trench and a lath is nailed
horizontally from one to the other.
11a feet above the ground at the out
let, and the other is nailed two feet
above the ground at the head, a
straight line between these laths will
be parallel to the desired grade line
and just five feet above it. If several
intermediate laths are nailed on line
with the two end ones well-defined
line of grade lathe Is established. BY
digging the trench until the top of a
stick five feet long held vertically on
the bottom of the trench Is in line
with the top of the laths, a perfect
grade line can be obtained.
In soils that stand up we'll the
trench for an entire line may be dug
before any of the tile are laid. The
digging should always be commenced
at the outlet so that the water ac.
cumulating in the trench during con-
struction may escape. Wherever pos
sible it is best to complete the trench
and begin laying the tile at the head
Where laying begins at the out
let, distractions are sometimes car.
ried into the tile by the water. Many
soils, notably quicksand, will not
stand up long enough to permit the
entire trench to be finished before
the sides begin to slough in. Here
laying must begin at the outlet and
care must be taken to prevent the
entrance of distractions.
1t is best to cover the tile only
enough to hold them in place unfit
the entire line is laid. In the case
of a sandy subsoil which runs easily,
clay or muck should be placed at
once around the tile for protection
from the sand. Where tile are LEFT
only blinded in this. way for time,
a mistake may be easily detected AMI
located. In any case 1t is best to
rely upon science, common sense, and
an intelligent use of digging tools
shown here than to worship the
wizard

Hard Luck.

What consider the worst case OF
hard luck on record came to my no
tice the other day. A Chicago man
mortgaged his home to buy an auto
mobile, and in less than week after
he had purchased the machine his
house burned to the ground. the gar
age in which the automobile was
standing also being destroyed, to-
gether with it's contents, and there
wasn't a cent of insurance on any
thing"
"Oh. don't know. l think | can
tell you of case of harder luck than
that. | know a man who tried TO
mortgage his home to buy an auto
mobile. but he was unable to find any
body who would advance any money
on it, so he was compelled not only
to get along without an automobile,
but to continue to make payments on
the house"

can be secured from any druggist
