which is intended to hold ordinary
milk crooks for feeding the calves. In
these crooks can be placed the skim.
milk for the calves and with 1t any
grain ration that may be desirable to
give them. The particular stanchion
from which this picture was taken
was owned by man who had great
faith In Kafir corn as a grain ration
for his calves. His custom was to
place the feed OF Kafir corn in the
crock with the milk, and let the
calves do the rest. These crooks are
easily emptied and easily cleaned,
while the calves are not using them
they can be left in place for the sun
shine to purify and cleanse.
The estimated cost of this calf
stanchion where all materials must be
purchased, Is about $3.50. This pro
provides fer stanchion large enough
to accommodate six calves, though
the cut shows provision for only four.
OF course, the stanchion can be made
as long or as short as may be desired
and on most farms the material nee
essary Is already at hand In such
cases the cost would be nothing more
than the labor Of construction. The
drawing is SO clearly made that per-
haps. no further details are necessary
about the method Of building and any
man who Is handy with tools can con-
struct this stanchion in q very short
time and have 1t In operation.
The results Of experimental work
in calf feeding at the Kansas ex-
pertinent station have been pub
lished In the form Of bulletins. and
may be had by addressing that insti-
tuition.

TRUE FRIEND
OF GARDENER
Toad Consumes Angle Worms,
SnaiIss Sowbugs, Spiders,
Ants and Various
Caterpi1Iara.
By H. a. qossARp.l


The toad is a very valuable friend
to the gardener Toads live for sew
eral years and by preference remain
on the same feeding grounds from
year to year. About 80 per cent. of
the toads' food consists OF animal
matter.
Among the forms regularly eaten
are angle worms, snails, sowbugs,
acknowledged worms. spiders, ants.
grasshoppers. crickets. cutworms, bee
ties and various caterpillars. From
so to so per cent. OF injurious insects
and small per cent Of beneficial In
sects go In with its customary ration.
The stomach is filled and emptied
about four times in each "a hours.
Upon the basis of stomach examin-
atoms. it has been estimated that dur
ing the 80 day period extending over
May. June and July, grown toad
will consume 2,160 cutworms, / 800
thousand legged worms. 2.160 SOW
bugs, 3.240 ants, $50 weevils, and $50
ground beetles. the last being ben
eficial insects The total sum there
fore. for the 80 days Is $50 beneficial
insects and 1920 INJURIOUS ones de-
stroyed.
English and French gardeners APP
preciate the value of toads and as
high as $25 per hundred Is said to be
often paid for them

"A shallow pool Of cement. having a

sufficient Stagnant water is better

There Is money In calves raised By
hand. # one is equipped for 1t or will
equip himself, 1t is believed to be
more profitable In every; way to raise
calves BY hand than to let them run
with the dams. This has been dem
onstrated over and over, but because
Of the slightly additional amount OF
work necessary 1t is not practiced so
often as would really be profitable,
says the Kansas Farmer. There are
many cases. Of course, where emer.
gencies demand that the calf be raised
by hand. There are more cases
where this could be done profit
ably II 1t were undertaken in the right
way.
One OF the conveniences which Is
desirable in the development. Of calves
by hand feeding Is the stanchion
shown In the accompanying cut. 1t
does not require long to train the
calves SO that they will go Of their
own accord to their proper places and
the stanchion Is SO easily and so
cheaply built that 1t does not pay to
do without it.
Az shown in the cut, it is Intended
to be built into and as a part Of the
fence surrounding the calf pasture.
The materials necessary are some 2
by As for the frame work, and some
barrel slaves for the upright pieces
which enclose the calves heads.
These barrel slaves are placed In
such manner that one of them which
ats about the Calls neck Is movable
at the upper end. The lower end is
held in place by a 2O-penny nail driven
through the center OF the stave so
that It may act as q hinge and allow
the upper end to move freely for the
insertion and removal Of the calf.s
head.
