the other hand, If she has been grown
rapidly and is now fat, the weight of

In giving this advice 1 realize that the
question of breeding two-year-old fllies

mANAGEMENT OF CLovEE


Experience as we'll as exact expert
ments, prove that clover hay possesses a
higher feeding value when the crop is
cut and cured as green as possible. The
majority of farmers allow their clover
to get too ripe before they begin the
work Of cutting and harvesting.
Every practical feeder of dairy cat
tie and young things knows the value
of rowen as food for milk-production and
growth. What is the matter with max
ing rowen out of the whole of the clover
crop?
The clover should be cut as soon as II
is In blossom. 1t cannot be cured as
quickly. hut it can be cured and we shall
be more sure to get a good second crop.
Much of the feeding value Of the
clover depends upon how the crop is
managed after it is cut; and right here
is where we find many practical farm
ers who fail to agree on how the clover
should be handled, although they are
all working with the one object in view,
and that to cure It as quickly as they
can and get the crop secured before
unfavorable weather delays the work and
ruins the feeding value of the hay.
We make a practice of cutting IN the
forenoon what may be tedded and raked
ard cooked in the afternoon and allow
two days and open up the third day
about 9 or 10 o'clock in the morning and
begin hauling to the NOW in the after
noon.
When the clover is handled in this
manner it will be cured and the loss Of
leaves will be reduced to minimum.
Glover that is handled in this manner
will retain its delightful aroma. Of
course. whether conditions will often up
set our most carefully laid plans, and
We shall be compelled to cut away from
all hard and fast rules and do the best
thing possible under the circumstances
The@hay tedder is a necessity If we
get our hay into the barn in the best
condition, and one days good sun and
two teddings will do more toward curing
Ia crop Of clover than two days exposure
to the sun and weather; beside, when
the clover is cooked up and left there
is but little danger from rainy weather
unless II continues for several days, ana
even then the loss will be much less than
il would he If the clover were left as
when first cut in the rows as 1t was
r0ked up.

\ sAIANonD rOOD rOa PLANTS
BY w. Milton Kelly.
We frequently read or hear of the
relative merits of liquid and solid ma


We frequently read or hear of the
relative merits of liquid and solid ma
nures discussed. Some make the best
sertion that liquid manure is the best
and base their claims upon the fact
that it promotes more rapid growth
to plants when young, than the solid
manure.
a number of excellent authorities that
the solid manure is the best on ac-
count of it's lasting benefits by supply
ing humus, or partially decomposed
vegetable matter to the soil, which
increase the capacity of conserving
moisture and also improves the tex
ture.
We believe that the best and most
satisfactory results are made when
both liquids and solids are used in
the same relative proportions as when
made.
According to our best informed
men in soil culture and fertilizers
liquid manure contains approximately
the same amount of fertilizing mate
rial as the solid, but the fertilizing
elements present in the liquid portion
are in condition to render them inn
mediately ready for the growing
plants.
The liquid portion of manure which
Is usually lost, or rather wasted.
through imperfect methods of hand
ling and saving, contains the same
expensive fertilizing elements that
cost a farmer from $40 to $40 per ton
when purchased from the commercial
fertilizer agents.
l.
farmers that commercial fertilizer will
make quicker growth when used to
fertilize young plants than ordinary
barnyard manure on account of being
more available for the young plants to
feed upon.
The above claim may be right to a
certain extent If the best quality of
commercial fertilizer is used on one
plat and barnyard manure IN another.
But when we speak or write of the
ordinary barnyard manure we must
consider the fact that IT is not as val
liable as when fresh from the stable
and contains the full amount of plant
food. both liquids and solids, that 1t
contained at the time it was made.
Thus, many make the mistake of
losing the most valuable fertilizing
elements from their manure and then
claiming it inferior to the commercial
fertilizers for promoting a rapid
growth of the young plants.
We do not think that better results
| can be made by using commercial fer
tilizers for a number of years than
can be made by using stable, not barn
yard. manure when care has been ex-
ercised in saving and preserving all of
the fertilizing elements that it origi-
nally contained.
Whenever 1 see or hear the term
barnyard manure used it calls to my
mind certain class of farmers who
allow their manure to remain under
the stable caves all winter to fermenl
and wash away and VINO the next
spring pay commercial fertilizer agents
whole hatful of money for the very
elements that he has allowed to wash
away and then says that the feeding
of livestock and dairying does not pay.

CARE OF THE CHIcKENs.

All the old birds, and young, too,
should be examined frequently during
the hot months because then 1t is that
the lice and mites thrive.
If cut bone or chopped meat is fed
during the summer extra precautions
must be taken to have 1t perfectly
fresh.
Many birds die from eating bone and
meat scraps which have been allowed
to lie around exposed to the heat and
the flies.
In feeding chickens always remember
that they are provided for to produce
fresh eggs for human feed and. there
fore, their own feed should be just as
pure as that we eat ourselves.
The hot sun will cause young gos-
lings and ducklings as well to topple
over and die Provide shade for them
until they are strong on their pegs.
