these crooks can be placed the skim.
milk for the calves and with it any
grain ration that may be desirable to
give them. The particular stanchion
from which this picture was taken
was owned by a man who had great
faith in Kaffir corn as a grain ration
for his calves. His custom was to
place the feed of katfir 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 cali
stanchion where all materials must be
purchased, is about $3.50. This pro
provides for 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 very short
time and have it in operation.
The results of experimental worl,
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.

Home Made Calf stanchion.

There is money in calves raised by
hand. If one is equipped for it or will
equip himself, it 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 it 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 il 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 bailt that it does not pay to
do without it,
AS shown In tho Cut, 1t is intended
to be built into and as part of the
fence surrounding the calf pasture
The materials necessary are some
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 rof them which
fits about the calfs neck is movable
at the upper end. The lower end is
held in place by a 20-penny nail driven
through the center of the stave sc
that it may act as a hinge and allow
the upper end to move freely for the
insertion and removal of the calf's
head
On the outside of the stanchion
which is a part of the calfs pasture
fence, is placed rack as shown il

Owing to the dislike of the Great
ures for new and unfamiliar surround
ings, it is advisable in many cases to
provide a breeding pool for them in
order that the young may establish
themselves where they are wanted.
A shallow pool of cement, having a
small but constant water supply is
sufficient. Stagnant water is better
than running water from the stand
point Of the toad raiser
The young toads will leave the
water by midsummer Or before mos
quitoes become abundant, and the
pool should then be drained to pre-
vent mosquito breeding A small in
door aquarium protected from mos
quitoes by screens, may prove more
satisfactory than an outdoor pool.
Supply with fresh water plants and
clans. and feed the toads with bits
of dog biscuit or chopped fresh meat
as needed. Do not feed more of any
food than the toads and tadpoles will
consume. or the water will become
contaminated. The outdoor pool can
be screened against mosquitoes, II
desired, provided the toads are fed.
For garden shelters. make shallow
holes in the ground and cover with
fiat stones or boards The toads will
retire into these in the daytime and
come forth at dusk for their nightly
forays.
Toads are especially valuable to
greenhouse men, keeping down slugs
snails, sow bugs, plant lice and such
destructive insects.

CcteTpil1arS.
(By H. A. GossARDo


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 50 per cent. OF
the toads' food consists of animal
matter.
Among the forms regularly eaten
are angle worms, snails. sowbugs
thousand-legged worms, spiders. ants
grasshoppers, crickets, cutworms, bee
ties and various caterpillars. From
60 to 80 per cent. of injurious insects
