GENERAL

Weeds rob the soil Of moisture.

Weeds rob the soil Of moisture.
Kaflr corn is not as good for lay
ing hens as wheat is.
Farmers should raise their own
hay. grain and meat, as well as fruit
and garden vegetables.
You don't have to wait till the in
cubator is in the mood. It's ready to
set whenever you want it to.
In trying up caulifower heads be
sure there is no moisture in the cen
ter, or the head will certainly rot.
For best results in ALTERNATING it
is well not to have the churn over
half full. and 1t is better to start with
less.
By cutting cabbage instead of pull
ing 1t. you stimulate a growth of
small shoots that are deliciously ten
der and mild.
The flaring milk pail is being done
away with in all sanitary diaries and
the hooded pail with small opening is
taking its place.
Bacteria do not thrive In the cold
but in heat only. II you keep your
milk below 40 degrees the bacteria
will have small chance.
Beans are not as good a feed for
live stock as peas. simply because
they are not as palatable; the cows
don't like them so well.
To keep a cow from switching her
tail nothing is so convenient as a
hoop made of five or six feet of heavy
rope thrown Owe the rump.
The average milk 10Y drinks from
so to 100 pounds of water a day. The
more a COW can be induced to drink
the better for the milk flow.
If one extra potato were added to
each plant grown in the United States
the actual increase in the annual
yield of the crop would amount to
81. 000. 900 bushels.
Just how deeply the corn and other
spring crops should be cultivated and
Just how long the cultivation should
be continued is a matter upon which
farmers differ widely in opinion.

Colony House for Chickens.

For raising chickens the colony
house should be fitted up with a de
lachable lamp box and a hover which
ear be taken out just as soon as the
chicks are old enough to roost. A col
ony house can be made and a detach-
able brooder can be purchased at the
same price. One can buy an outdoor
orooder complete. and the former
can be used from the time the chicks
are Matched until ready TO go to the
regular poultry house. whereas the
latter the purpose satisfac-
torily only for the first six weeks.
