MANAGING A MATURE BULL
Animal Should Be Kept In Well
Fenced Perturbation Of Wheat
and Ground Oats % Coed.

The service bull should be kept in a
wellicnced grass pasture with a shed
20 30 under IN stormy weather during
the grazing season Give mixed
grain ration Of wheat bran and ground
oats Give two or three quarts Of
grain night and morning II grass Is
short, an armful Of cornfodder should
be fed twice a day. The COW TO be
served may be turned into the lot
with the bull; after service, give a
small feed Of bran and while bull is
eating, throw the stanchion lever, thus
securely fastening the bull; the COW
may then be removed without danger.
BY having the COWS served so that
part of the herd win come fresh In
the fall and part IN the spring, a reg
ular quantity Of milk may be had the
year round, without the necessity OF
selling of habitat cows at ruinous
prices and buying IN fresh cows at
high prices. When this method Is fol
lowed. the dairyman is always in debt
TO the COW dealer
The bull should be kept in good
thrifty condition. A cross bull may
often be tanned by turning one or two
dry cows into the lot with him. Bulls
should have daily exercise and be
grain fed. If this is not done, they
may become impotent or slow in
serving The young bull should be
kept in a separate pasture and not al
lowed 10 run with the heifers.

KNOWS NOW
Doctor Was Fooled by His Own Casa
For a Time.

It's easy to understand how ordl
nary people get fooled by coffee when
doctors themselves sometimes forget
the facts.
A physician speaks of his own expe-
rience:
II had used coffee for years and really
did not exactly believe it was injuring
me although l had palpitation Of the
heart every day. (Tea contains caf-
feine-the same drug found in coffee
and is just as harmful as coffee.)
FINALLY one day a severe and al
most fatal attack Of heart trouble
frightened me and gave up both tea
and Coffee using Postum instead, and
since that time l have had absolutely
no heart palpitation except on one or
two occasions when l tried a small
quantity OF coffee, which caused severe
irritation and proved to me must let
1t alone.
when we began using Postum e
seemed weak-that was because we
did not make 1t according to directions
but now we put a little bit Of but
ter in the pot when boiling and allow
the Postum to boil full Is minutes
which gives it the proper rich flavor
and the deep brown color.
81 have advised a great many Of
my friends and patients to leave on
coffee and drink Postum, In fact daily
give this advice" Name given by
Postum Co., Battle Greek. Mich.
Many thousands Of physicians use
Postum in place Of tea and coffee in
their own homes and prescribe II to
patients.

LINING FOR SILVER DRAWER
Velvet That Shows Signs OF Wear
Should Be Replaced Before II Is
Worn Through.

Every silver drawer should have a
lining of velvet with a short pile, and
where this pile begins to show the
marks of long usage it should be re-
newed to appear at it's best. To do this
1t is best to peel out the velvet that
is to be replaced and measure off the
new lining to the correct measure
ments of the old one. The paste with
which it is made to adhere is made Of
the same consistency as the sizing
that would be used in paper hanging,
or slightly dryer, and after the inside
of the drawer is sand-papered it is ap-
piled to the wood and the velvet
pressed to it with a piece Of paste
board or rubbed with plain paper.
Brush we'll after it is dried and be-
fore the silver is placed in its new re-
pository.

Keeping Milk Sweet.

One of our enterprising dairymen
sent a bottle Of milk to Paris at the
time of the exposition. 1t made the
journey over and back, a trip of %
days, and was still sweet. There was
no preservatives used, and the only
precaution was to have the dishes and
bottle perfectly sterile, cooling the
milk at once and keeping 1t all the
time at a low temperature. This seems
a good while to keep milk sweet but
it shows what cleanliness and a low
temperature can do with milk.

Tassels Are Seen.

Notwithstanding the craze for but,
tons, which grows rather than de-
creases, tassels are still plentiful, and
in the case of a taffeta gown, the skirt
of which was cut at the hem into
series of small scallops, each scallop
was punctured with a tiny tassel in a
color to match The hem of the short
coat which accompanied the costume
was ornamented in like manner, tas-
sells also appearing on the turned
back cuffs.

Concerning Corsets.

The most interesting topic of the
hour is corsets and the new form they
will take.
There can be no model that will
adapt itself to every style of figure,
The question Of corseting is one
that needs sound judgment and a
knowledge Of anatomy.
The latest reports are that women
are to go corsetless altogether.
Doubtless this will vastly improve
their health-if not their appearance.
1t will take slender woman to
strong-mindedly follow this fashion.
Those suffering from superhuous
embonpoint will have additional cause
for complaint.

Overrun butter is the difference in
weight in the amount of butter fat and
the finished product. 1t is in reality
the water salt and curd that have been
incorporated in the butter during the

in the cream, and, when through churn-
ing, we have 118 pounds of finished

tom cream line is apt to be. Normally
this opening Is plugged with a re-
movable pin, but when the cream is
TO be run off this pin is taken out
and the cream allowed to flow through
the hole. To do this, however, air
must be admitted to the top of the
buttle, so the plug Is made with
sharp point which can be jabbed

Don't forget the dairy bull in your
plans for the breeding of herd. He
is too often neglected because he
doesn't give milk. Good dairy bulls
are hard to find simply because they
have not been saved and cared for
with the same attention given the
heifers. There is no question about
the ability Of dairy bull to transmit
to his offspring milking tendencies.

Good Feed for Calf.

Give the calves a little bran or
ground oats to chew at. They will be
eating grain before you know it if
given the chance. The earlier the
calf gets to eating grain the more
rapidly he will grow, The younger
the calf makes his growth the cheaper
that growth is made. Also the young
err a calf makes his growth the earlier
he can be gotten out of the way.

CROWN PRINCE SHIRKs DUTY?

The article attacking the crown

which is attracting great attention,
being reproduced in many leading
newspapers, appeared originally in
Der Tuermer, a monthly review, &C
cording to a Berlin dispatch 1t was
written by Herr Guenther Won Vie
lbrogge. a retired officer.
The article observes that up to the
time when the kaiser appointed his
heir to the colonelcy of the famous
Deaths Head hussaTs at Danzlg last
September the crown prince had never
done any military service worth men,
tioning. It was hoped that the COM

Effect Of Feed on MILK.

Some dairymen believe that if the
feed Of their cows is changed it will
have a bad effect upon the milk Cow,
but repeated scientific experiments
show that changing from one feed 10
another, and frequently additions to
the regular feed, helps the milk flow.

Cost of Keeping Pure-Bred Sire.

According to the Illinois station, the
total annual expense of keeping a
good pure-bred sire, including feed,
care and depreciation is SIS. In a
herd of 40 COWS so per cow must be
allowed annually to have each
calf sired by a pure-bred. Since this
amount is so small, every dairyman
can afford to keep a good pure-bsed
sire, even though he has but a small
number of good cows in his herd.

GEAR AVERsE TO MoNGOL WAR

1t is stated in high official circles
that Russia does not contemplate the
annexation of Mongolia and does not
even desire to see it established as a
buffer state. On the contrary, Russia
feels that Chinese suzerainty is best
for the Mongols, who are unaccus-
tome, % self government and are ig.
norant of statecraft.
For Russia to assist Mongolia in a
war for independence would be fool
ish, as it would ALLEVIATE from the en-
pire the sympathies of the young Chi
nese republic, antagonize the other
powers and necessitate stronger meas
ures later on. Officials who have the
cars confidence say that should China
succeed in making an arrangement
whereby the Mongols would be salts
fed, Russia would not object to Mon
golia's joining the republic.
While the foregoing is undoubtedly
the Russian governments attitude, it
