re can draw a very valuable lesson
from this all but artistic animal,
whose only language is his sqUeal OF
disapproval and his sturdy grunt of
satisfaction. He saves where others
waste, and makes his living by roofing
around sometimes in places where
wanted, sometimes not If there is
anything within reach that he likes
he usually finds it and proceeds to
make good use of the opportunity
without any manifest concern or ex-
cltement. He seems to make it his
business to look after small things,
even the holes in the fence if the out
side looks more inviting.
Profitable farming is becoming more
and more a business proposition in
which it is necessary to look after
the small things and to use to the best
advantage every opportunity to pro-
duce more economically. The best
and most profitable farmers have
adopted systems of farm accounting,
or, in other words, they have become
bookkeepers, have kept such com
plete records as to enable them to de-
termine which fields were profitable
and which were not. To begin with, |
it is not absolutely necessary to follow |
up all little details, but it is a good |
plan to do so as completely as possible.
If we were to go into a manufacture
ing plant, one of the first things to
impress us would be the system Of
doing things and the strict principles
OF economy that are followed. All
products thab can he used for other
purposes are saved, properly stored.
and used when the time comes. At
the end of each month, and possibly
each day, the manager knows the
exact status of affairs - the amount Of
stock on hand, and the quantity Of
finished product ready for the market.
Every part of great machine is

for
If the same unsystematic methods
were practiced in factories as are used
on some farms, they would soon lose
their identity with the worlds pro- I

power TO The best possible advantage
In this connection it might be said
that one of our foremost universities
has just found that on 160-acre farm.
/ equipped with six splendid head of
work stock, the average daily labor
per horse was only little over three
hours for the entire year "a very
small average labor record, indicating
lack of efficiency.
Well kept accounts would enable us
to determine the most satisfactory
way Of utilizing our dairy products.
Experiment Stations have found that
the cream separator reduces the loss
Of butter fat per COW to one-eighth
that Of tht deep setting; one-twenty-
first Of the shallow pan, and one
thirty-third of the water dilution
methods of cream separation. This
shows that with the ordinary farmer
who is milking ten average cows,
figuring butter at the market price,
will save more than the price of a !
separator in single season. 1t not |
only is economical from the stand |
point of obtaining more of the butter
fat from the milk and other methods |
Of cream separation, but makes it |
possible to utilize the milk before it |
has undergone the action of detri-
mental bacteria, to which it is very
susceptible. Every farmer knows
that milk as it comes fresh from the
separator is in the most wholesome
condition for feeding young pigs and
young calves.
We hear great deal said nowadays
about maintaining the fertility of the
soil. We all know that if grain is
sold direct on the market that we
deplete the fertility of the land very
rapidly. The next best system of
farming is stock raising for meat pro-
1uction, and the best of all systems
Tor maintaining the productivity of
5he land, and at the same time reap
Profits therefrom, is dairying not
selling the whole milk but selling
Jutter only.
Only by following some system of =
arm accounting can we know these
hings and be able to weigh in the
'alance the returns from each field
rom each kind of stock and from
very farm operation.

FEEDING CALVES
Reply to W. T. TURNER, chHo. o.

Reply to W. 7 TURNER, Chilo, o.
We have your letter of recent date II
which you ask for some information
on feeding calves, but you do not stat,
how old yourcalves are. Young calve!
should be fed on whole milk for somt
time, and changes in their feed should
be made gradually. After a week ol
ten days the whole milk feed may be
changed to one of half skim and
half whole milk. Decrease the whole
milk until you are feeding the cali
entirely on skim milk. 1t is well To
have a quantity of grain convenient
so that the calf will have an oppor-
tunltv to learn to eat as early as
possible 1t probably will not learn to
eat grain for some little time. This
may be hastened, however, by mixing
a small amount of bran with the milk,
or you may add a small quantity Of
low-grade -four.
Skim milk contains some more
protein and carbohydrate than whole
milk, so for feeding it is best to pick
a grain that will not supply large
quantities of these materials. In some
instances calves may do very well on
highly-concentrated feed but these
feeds are usually very expensive, and
there are other substitutes that are
Just as good. Usuallyno betterresults
can be obtained from high-priced con-
centrates than from feeding such grain
as corn, kattir corn, sorghum, barley or
oats. The following mixtures have
been found to give very good salts
faction;
Whole oats and bran.
Whole oats, corn, barley, and
bran.
A mixture of Is pounds of whole
oats, 9 pounds Of bran, pounds of
corn meal, and 3 pounds Of linseed
meal is also very good feed for calves.
Together with these concentrates
the young and growing calf should
have plenty of fresh water, and be
allowed TO play in the sun. 1t should
also have free access TO good clover or
alfalfa hay. If these are not avail
able, timothy hay and corn fodder are
perhaps the next best. If you have d
silo, small quantities Of ensilage will
keep the calf in good condition during
the winter months.
If the calf does not gain when taking
the whole milk, il should be weaned. |
Try half skim and half whole milk for |
4 while. Sometimes the addition of a
spoonful of lime water to each feed !
will correct the difficulty.
Calves may suffer from scours when |
put on grass but usually there will be
very little difficulty if they are allowed |
20 feed but a short time at first, then
gradually increasing the period each
lay until they become accustomed to
he change Sudden changes Of feed I

A great deal has been said in a joe
ular way about she razor back hog and
his sun-splittlng abilities, but it is a
very encouraging fact that he is rap
idly becoming extinct. His happy
hunting grounds consist now of only
a small part of the total hog produc-
ing area. He has been succeeded by
the more domcsticated and more
highly developc3 type Of hog, which
someone has properly dubbed "the
mortgage raiser" Many farmers can
easily attribute the possession Of
homes, wealth and all that goes there
with, tothedonestlcatedho hog. His place
in the scheme Of industrial progress
has been won not by any unusual trait,
but is largely due to the fact that his
prottableness is q result Of instructive
economical habits. By nature he
seems to fit into the whole scheme Of
farming as utilizer, to the best pos
sible advantage, of many Of the farm
products that would otherwise be

Editor Herald:

Editor Herald:
What is known as the national
granary of Mexico has, by heavy rains
been turned in 10 a vast ocean. The
states north of and Immediately ad.
joining the federal district are the
worst sufferers. Crops are destroyed
and hundreds OF people nave been
made homeless. Cities the size OF
Aberdeen and some the size of Ho-
GUAM and Aberdeen combined, have
been wiped out. The federal govern.
ment has already appropriated five
million dollars Tor the relief of the
sufferers.
In the elections held throughout
in the senate and house of represen-
tatives. only ten per cent OF the quail
fed voters cast their ballot. The
apathy of the people is a surprise to
the politicians who justly say that for
every vote cast hundreds OF lives have
been sacrificed or the battlefield-and
that the result does not justify tn"
great losses sustained in lives as well
as in property. If the people of Mex.
leo did not want the franchise, why
all this fuss in fighting for it, Can
didly speaking the revolution has been
instigated and is being financed by
contending office-seekers and wealth
exploiters of the country. Whatever
the outcome, therefore may be, the
people themselves will have gained
nothing. 1t is evident that the coun-
try is not ripe for selt-government and

The CoWn-Trodden Consumer.

The hue and cry for years has been
sympathy for the poor downtrodden
consumer, and one might be inclin
ed to think he bears the entire bur
den of life. The strange thing is that
the ordinary citizen does not stop to
note that the largest class of con-
sumers in the world are the produc-
ers, and while turning all their sym.
pathy to the consumer the producer
consumer IS omitted from their pray
ers. Many restrict the word produc
err TO limited class. This is incor-
rect. A producer need not necessar-
lily raise potatoes. There are many
other necessities in life. Even the
man with brains and soft hands, who
does not know by personal expert
ence what perspiration is, is a pro-
Queer. The consumer is dependent
upon the producer. If the latter does
not enjoy prosperity the consumer
cannot There are some classes Of
consumers who are not producers,
and as one wide observer says, They
are children, criminals, idiots and de-
pendents of one sort or the other:
the latter including the lazy-rich who
live on their wealth instead of using
it, After all it is very probable, if

Loose Procedure

The methods of business in vogue
with majority of the board of coun-
~ commissioners resemble those of
a close and secret private organiza-
ton more than public officials, of
whose actions a plain record should
be kept. For years it has been the
custom for two members, constitut.
ing a majority, TO form an alliance
~ as if it was a little affair of their
very own.
It is a rare occurrence for vote
to be taken upon any question, and
the parliamentary procedure of the
board has never been equalled out
side the Lime Kiln club. The Two
members who have assumed control
issue orders involving the eXpendi-
ture of money at any and all times
without the slightest regard for the
third member, or the minutes of their
proceedings, so that quite frequently
the first knowledge the public has of
important and costly transactions is
when record is made of the order
10 pay the bill-and it is questiona-
BILE if this publicity would bbe given
many of them if it was not made
necessary by law before the audi
tor can draw warrant
Several instances of this line of
procedure have occurred quite re-
Gently that will illustrate the meth
DDS prevailing. The first notice the
public-or the third member OF the
ooard-had of the proposed county
hospital, was an order for the audi
cor to make warrant in payment
OF the land for Si.75o, when the own
er should make good title. Again, a
bill for more than 5000 was allowed
at a recent meeting for cruising lands
that was not publicly ordered, and

will shortly be paid for. with moth
