The COW never tires Of silage.
Don't put sick fowl in q coop with
healthy ones.
Scraps from the table will help to
reduce the feed bills.
Old corn is the best feed until the
new gets well cured out.
Every corn grower should test ev-
cry ear Of seed corn this year.
In buying a COW the first thing to
do is to look well into the breed.
Green-cut bone must not be con-
founded with ground bone or bone
meal.
A great deal of interest IL being
manifested these days in the small
farm.
Horses, hogs. pigs and calves eat
silage and thrive on It as we'll as does
the dairy COW.
The milk from a COW in poor run
down condition is certain to be cor
respondingly poor.
Every orchard ought to be planted
in checks to admit Of clean cultivation
with the smallest amount of hoeing.
On the average farm, fifty hens
bring as big returns as the best COW
In the herd with less feed and care.
Many times, one hill will produce
six eight-ounce potatoes; which is
at the rate Of $40 bushels per acre.
Collaborating sows are said to be
cured by a tablespoonful Of baking
soda in slop three times a day for
week.
The cream separator, the silo and
the manure spreader should find a
place in the equipment Of every dairy
farm.
The feeding of clover hay to poultry
is a very simple matter and can be
successfully done by any farmer or
poultryman.
Scales are q good thing for a man
to have. They enable him to know
Just what he has to sell and also

A few drops Of tincture Of iron in
the drinking water makes an excel
lent spring tonic for the poultry. It
tones up the system and makes rich,
red blood.
While there is more or les preju-
dice against the use Of rye as food
for farm animals, It forms q valuable
to oats and barley for live

The matter Of keeping records Is i'm
portant. The farmer should be able
70 take account Of stock at the be-
ginning of every year, the same as
any merchant does.
II we neglect the hen houses this
spring till they are alive with lice and
mites. We deserve the consequences.
