cents a bushel, one-third corn and two
thirds cotton seed meal will provide a
most excellent ration for dairy ami
mails
Oak leaves contain more plant food
than pine straw, and on this account
are better so far as the enrichment
of the manure and litter is concerned,
but they are not as good an absorbent
as pine straw. In fact, neither one OF
them makes as good absorbent as the
straw from the cereals because of their
comparatively hard surface.
1t is impossible to say what yield you
might expect from early Rose pota-
toes planted on land of the character
mentioned in your letter. Probably so
bushels per acre would be a fair yield
on land which will make a bale of cot
ton per acre with s. worth of fertilizer.
The Irish potato is a gross feeding plant
and requires plenty of commercial plant
food for its best development. 1t also
does we'll on soils we'll supplied with
vegetable matter. Therefore, IL yard
manure can be broadcasted on the land
at the rate of ten tons per acre and
worked into the surface better, results
will be obtained than in it's absence. You
can also afford to use a fertilizer form
ula containing 10 per cent of phosphorus,
3 per cent of nitrogen and 8 per cent OF
potash. Use this at the rate of not less
than 700 to D. pounds per acre.
There is money in growing onions.
Those produced from sets put out in the
fall are ready for market in the early
spring, and will generally command a
good price. Where grown from seed va
rious varieties may be used but prob
ably the Westhersfield will be found as
satisfactory as any.

DESTROYING WOLVES" IN CAT

c. w. G., Fairfax. Ca, writes: I

In feeding dairy cows the dairyman
is called on to supply a liberal amount
of protein in the daily ration. Corn only
contains between 8 and 8 per cent Of
digestible protein; cotton seed meal
when of high grade contains about 81
per cent or more than four times as
much as corn. In alt feeding tests made
up to this time cotton seed meal has
been shown to be the cheapest concen-
trate available in the. south for the nu-
triton of dairy cows. Since cotton seed
meal is a very concentrated food you
should be careful to feed it in mod
crate. amounts, From to pounds per

body and always records facts from all

chance against it.
If we allow buyers to come into our
herds and pick out the best cows how
can we ever expect to build up a pro-
fitable dairy?
We knew a Dakota farmer who al
ways cured his calves of scours by
breaking raw eggs into their mouths. A
better way, however, is dried blood fed
in moderate quantities at the start
No matter at which price you sell the
poor cows it is generally safe to say you
get all they are worth and a little more.

The small amount of nitrogen in Geor-

cereal crops This matter has been
tested out so carefully, not only by our
colleges OF agriculture, but by practical
farmers, as 70 admit of no argument.
Farmers who contemplate using top
dressings should bear these suggestions
in mind, and should make their prep
arations to secure the most desirable
material and apply il under the most
advantageous conditions. Where this is
done top dressings will prove a salts

WHY sows EAT THEIR PIGS.

Whenever sow shows a disposition
to eat her pigs it is a sure sign that
she possesses q craving for some form
of food she is unable to obtain If
she cannot get the material that IS
needed to balance her system she nat
urally will devour her own offspring.
Once she gets a taste of flesh in this
way a tremendous appetite for nitro
genous feed is developed. she becomes
cross. irritable and often dangerous.
A hog is composed of blood, water,
gristIe, flesh and bone, all albuminous
or heterogeneous, and the SOW must have
food to supply all these elements in
her makeup or she cannot thrive.
Sows usually develop the pig-eating
habit when they are born. Very often
she will devcur a pig during the pains
Of parturition because she may think
they are caused by her offspring 4
When a SOW eats her pigs the best
way is to fatten her and send her to
market as quickly as possible, for ii
is habit not easily broken. But she
should at first be fed ration that
will produce growth in muscle and
flesh, and not too much fat. Later,
when she obtains her normal condi-
ton, she can be fattened the same as
any other hog
For winter feed1ng, alfalta or clover
hay, oGts or corn and shorts in equal
portions by weight will prove excellent
If the weather is very cold she may be
given a little more corn and she should
have plenty of exercise all the time.
In summer, of course, she should have
the run of a good pasture and the corn
ration should be greatly reduced. If fed
in this way SOW will, in the course
of one season, regain her normal con-
dition, but even then the habit of pig
eating may remain with her and we
would not regard her as a safe
breeder.
