Cleanliness Essential.

Every mother should try to nurse
her child. If she is very weak or
has a serious disease, then she
should not endanger the baby by
nursing it., A nursing mother
should take special care of her
self, however-she should walk in
the fresh air every day, take at
least eight hours sleep at night and
lie down in the middle of the day
for possibly an hour. She should
also eat three regular, nourishing
meals each day. A few teaspoon
fuls of warmed water will suffice
for the baby's food until the moth
er's milk comes.
In the use Of artificial foods for
babies, great care should be used.
AS to cows milk, it will be found
that in some instances babies can
not digest 1t at all. Some mothers
modify the milk by diluting it with
water, adding lime water to break
the curd and sweeten 1t with sugar.
The modification Of milk must be
suited to each particular child. No
set rule prevails.
In feeding with a bottle, regular
ity, cleanliness and judgment are
required even more than in the
nursing of a baby. The bottle
should be of smooth finish, with
ounce marks on the side, and fitted
with a smooth nipple. Bottles with
long tubes should not be used, as
the inside of the tube becomes
Shiny and sour. Food should never
be allowed to stand in half empty
bottle to be used again. The bottle
should be emptied and thoroughly
cleansed before the next meal. Ev-
cry effort should be made to keep
the bottle and nipple clean to pre-
vent infection. Too much care can
not be used

POWER HOUSE FOR THE FARM
Economy of Time and Energy ls OF
Vast Importance In Modern
Scheme of Farming.

In the modern scheme of farming,
economy of time and energy is OF
vast Importance. ANY convenience,
any machine or arrangement which
will bring about this economy, finds a
place on the up-to-date farm. The
gasoline engine has long been recog-
niZed as one of the most practical ma
chimes for saving time, money, and
energy, but to realize its greatest ad-
vantages, the engine should be in
stalled in a farm power house. With
an installation Of this nature, the far
mer is in a position to operate
any or all of his machines under the
most favorable conditions
In planning power house there are
certain general principles which
should be followed
The engine should be installed in
a separate room, or in a part which
is partitioned off from the balance of
the house In the room with the en-
CINE may be installed a small dynamo,
drill press, and grindstone. This
room might be called the work shop.
The remaining space of the power
house should be divided into two
rooms, one for the dust-producing ma
chimes, such as the shelter, grinder,
tanning mill, ETC., and the other
room for the machines which must be
kept absolutely clean, cream separa-
tor. churn, and any other machines
which 1t is found advisable to install
in this room. By betting the ma.
chimes to line shafting suspended from
the ceiling, any or all of the ma
chimes may be operated as desired.
In selecting an engine for the farm
power house, bear in mind that 1t is
advisable to select an engine Of q
little larger horse power than may al
first be thought necessary. The ex
perience of thousands Of farmers Is
to the effect that they all find more
work for the engine than they at first
planned. This is because the prac
ticability of the gasoline engine Ii
hardly realized. It will operate any
machines requiring power. For thil
reason 1t Is we'll to select size thai
will do all the work you have In mint
and still leave a little power in 70
serve.

rate of speed. The demands Of the
times call for true natural action.
Boots and weights are impracticable.
unsightly and inconvenient for use on
the public highway. Moreover, the
action should be pure and friction
less. Horses for pleasure use In the
great cities must possess courage and
great endurance.
While speed Is very desirable quail
ity, the breeder should not sacrifice
size for 1t. The ordinary farmer win
hardly profit by breeding horses for
speed purposes only. What he wants
is salable animal or horse Of general
utility, and a horse to be generally
useful and the class to command the
longest prices are those that belong
to the carriage type.

FIND A COTTON SUBSTITUTE
Experiments Have Been Made In
Europe With Common Nettie-
Used With Other Threads.

The search for a cotton substitute
has been going on In Europe for some
time and many experiments have
been made with the common nettle,
which has been a promising plant on
account of the strength of its fibre
and it's ready growth while under the
most discouraging conditions, with a
large yield per acre. The great diff
ficulty has been in separating the
fibre from the woody stem. In a
method OF treatment that has been
worked out In the last two or three
years, the dried nettle stems are boiled
about half an hour in dilute soda lye.
and the loosened fibre are then sep
arated in a machine with revolving
brushes The material is then sub
jected to a number Of alternate boil
ings in dilute I've and thorough wash
ings, both under high pressure The
product is a mass of yellowish f1bres,
free from gum, that can be bleached
combed, and spun into lustrous white
yarn. This is claimed to have the
smoothness and softness OF fax, with
a strength even greater than that of
hemp. The yarn has been made into
brilliant dalnask, and can be used
alone or with otnsr threads-for up
holsteries, ribbons. and a variety Of
fabrics.

About the fourth day the calves
should be separated from the cows
and fed whole milk by means OF an
artihcia- feeder. or taught 20 drink
whole milk from a pail. AS soon as
they have learned to drink the whole
milk should be gradually replaced
with warm sweet skimmilk SO that the
calves are receiving nothing but skim
milk at the end Of four weeks. The
shmmilk should be fed sweet and
warm (95 to 100 degrees FL. The
change from whole milk to skimmilk
should cover a period of about two
weeks. The skimmilk ration nay be-
gin at ten pounds per day and in
crease to fifteen pounds at four weeks
of age, after which 1t may range from
eighteen to twenty-four pounds.
1t is best to teach calves to drink
by using the fingers, as artificial feed
ers are not very satisfactory. Securing
in calves is usually due to feeding too
much milk or sour cold or unclean
milk. Careful attention should be
given to these details. II securing

For their bes. development calves
require milk for four or five months.
After that time milk may be omitted

Corn meal. kaf1r corn meal, oatmeal
and ground f1axseed or linseed meal
are best for this purpose. Calves may
be taught to eat by placing a handful
of dr. meal in the mouth.
Calves which come in the fall are

HIGH-CLASS COACH HORSES
Farmers to Increased Production
Of This Type of Animal.

The excessive demand and large
prices paid for high-class coach horses
In America should stimulate our breed
ers to an increased production of this
fashionable type of horse. While the
demand at present is very great, the
indications are that the usefulness
OF this class of horses will increase
with coming years, says writer in an
exchange. The farmers who will un-
dertake to breed carriage horses
would do we'll to select a stallion OF
standard breeding and possessing the
requisites of the desirable coach type.
An ideal stallion should have STAN
dard pedigree and of that class the
American trotter would come nearer
answering the purpose than any other
breed in this country. The trotter
would undoubtedly supply the import
ant requisite OF speed. A well-bred
trotter to get suitable carriage horses
should not only have speed inherit
ance, but should combine the qualities
Of beauty OF conformation, size, action,
courage and endurance. The reason
l argue for straight breeding is that
mongrels never reproduce uniformly.
And l prefer the trottcr because 1t ia
the main source of our supply of car
riage horses.

Several systems Of raising calves
are in vogue among different stock.
men. The calves may be allowed to
run with the cows and suck at will
They may be confined and allowed
to suck two or three times per day.
In this system one calf may be
allowed to suck one or two cows, or
two calves may be allowed to suck the
same COW, according to the flow of
milk and size OF the calves Calves
may be confined and fed fresh whole
milk from the pail. Again, they may

or even buttermilk or whey.
On the western ranges and in other
localities where beef Is the chief OBJ
Ject and where the milk is not desired
for other purposes, the calf is allowed
TO run with its mother. Under range
conditions this Is the only possible
economic way Of raising calves The
sucking calf develops into a more
promising yearling than the skimmilk
calf, especially II the latter is fed in
a careless or irregular manner. With.
out proper care skimmilk calves make
small pot-bellied yearlings.

The results of numerous expert
