FARM NOTES.

Farm management requires very
careful study.
A manure spreader will work on
any kind OF land.
You can spade or plow in oats In
the poultry runs with profit.
Go over the fruit and vegetables In
the cellar. Not a pleasant Job but 1t
pays.
During the winter months the com
ing seasons work should be carefully
outlined.
Million Dollar grass. sometimes
known as barnyard millet or Japanese
millet, makes reasonably good silage.
To be a good farmer. one must com.
bine knowledge OF what science
teaches. with acual outdoor contact
and labor.
A great many farmers are handi-
capped in tho successful management
OF their farms from a lack OF work
Ing capital.
The average number OF kernels In
an ear Of corn is $40: see what you
have gained when you increase 1t to
400 kernels.
This country raises annually about
200. 900. 900 bushels OF potatoes-more
II the crop Is good-and consumes
nearly all Of them at home.
Wherever the American table Is
spread. there is the potato-boiled.
baked. fried. stewed. hashed. seal
loped. in salad or otherwise.
Growing more corn to the acre
means the more profitable use Of the
land. and the more profitable use
means a greater selling value.
Bee-keepers who seek to improve
their bee stock by breeding their own
queens must give some attention to
the drones with which their breeding
queens mate.

IRRIGATION IN WEST KANSAS
II Was 1895 Before State Aid Was As
sured, Giving Definite start for
Undertaking.

80 far as rainfall Is concerned Kan
sas Is divided from east to west into
three parts. Only the western third
has much use for irrigation. Tho
first headway made toward placing
that part under irrigation was In 1890.
A convention was held at Great Bend
that year and q state organization ef-
fected whose purpose WAS to study tho
needs and aid In the development OF
the country. But this hopeful effort
did not get much beyond its beginning.
1t was not until 1895 that q definite
start was made. Then the legisla-
ture created a board OF irrigation and
appropriated $4,000 for its work. In
1896 this board did its first work. end
this date can we'll mark the start Of
Kansas irrigation.
Throughout the humid and semi-artd
districts there Is an unlimited supply
OF water close to the surface OF the
earth: moreover. there is little access
to large streams. 30 irrigation has
been largely confined to pumping
Tho following cities. especially. are
centers for this typo: Garden City.
Ingles. Cimarron. Dodge City. Kinsley.
Great Bend and Hutchinson.
In general. the most important points
to note In connection with irrigation
In the western third Of the state are:
Tho cost OF . windmill plant will be
from $50 to $3.50. according to the size
Of the pump used: the cost OF the reser-
hal
wells pay better. as tho flow usually

Feed for FAttenln0.

Fattening birds should always re-
ceive soft feed. A they have no ex-
crcise they require q feed that can
be quickly and easily digested. says
the United States department OF agri-
culture. The following mixture is fed
at the New York establishment re.
ferred to under the description Of the
examining machine: 100 pounds finely
ground barley. 100 pounds finely
ground corn. 100 pounds finely ground
oats with hulls sifted out). to which
mixture Is added ten per cent. OF
beef scraps. Buttermilk or skim milk
is used for mixing. the former being
preferred. A little salt Is sometimes
added. The birds are fed twice a day
at intervals Of 12 hours. and are
crammed for about three weeks. 1t
is important that the Intervals be.

Another ration may be made as
follows: 100 pounds ground oats. 100

Care Of Horses Shoulders,

Take two ounces OF ground hemlock
bark and two ounces OF ground red
oak bark and mix It with one gallon
OF cider vinegar. add two ounces OF
ground alum to mixture. stir before
applying Apply this solution to the
horses shoulders ten days before com
mencing spring work. The horse col
lars should At snugly and should be
scraped every morning before being
put on. This IL the government recipe
and It is a good one. Horses shoul
ders may be kept from chafing by
bathing the shoulders when the teams
come In at night with cold water. then
rubbing with crude petroleum. Rub
the oil in well. See that the collars
fit snug and are kept clean from dried
sweat. Wrap the trace chains to pre-

Horses should not be checked up when
