GIVING CHARCOAL TO FOWLS
Work and Prevents Many Diseases
Incidental TO Season.

Does the average farmer know that
an excellent grade Of charcoal can
be made by burning corn cobs till
they turn red, cxtingulshing the fire
and when dry grinding for mash
feeding for the poultry.
Charcoal is not a food, though
fowls gain in flesh and eggs during
it's use; it simply puts them and
keeps them in a good condition for
work. il prevents disease because Of
its great capacity TO absorb gases,
acids and impurities. It is an alter
ative, changing diseased conditions
to normal, disinfecting the diges-
tive tract and toning up the system.
In putrid disease like roup, in fer
mentation like sour crop, in intesti.
nal maladies like diarrhea or cholera,
It is of great benefit. In spring and
in summer. when the fowls blood is
sluggish II Is needed as a purifier to
ward of diseases incidental to these
seasons.
It should be kept before fowls in
size 10 suit their age, and where fowls
refuse to eat II fine charcoal should
be mixed in the mash occasionally. II
Is best given TO individual birds in
hTe-grain capsules-large doses are
necessary.

you will be unfortunate in attempts
10 raise any goslings even 81 you do Sc
cure ganders. This IS because the
mating season IS in the fall, usually
in September or October, and also be-
cause geese very much dislike to have
their quarters changed when once ac-
customed to them. For this reason peo-
pie who wish to secure birds for breed
ing purposes make their purchases in
the fall so the fowls VIII get acCus-
toned to their new surroundings.
Doubtless nests will be made and the
egg laid but the eggs may not hatch.
II you are forced to buy q gander this
spring, it viii perhaps be advisable
for you to purchase some good eggs
of the same breed as you keep, and
use these rather than the eggs from
your own flock, or at least mark the
eggs so that you can distinguish the
purchased ones from those laid by
your own birds. In this way you
should not be wholly disappointed.

The MAKING OF BUTTER
A. c. Page, College Of Agriculture,
University Of Missouri

Farm butter is VIGOROUSLY bad
There is no denying it, much as we
would like TO do honor to the products
OF the farm. Creamery butter is the
best, and the customer prefers it and
pays better price for it. Why is
il SO?
Il is because the farmer. or the
farmers wife, or whoever attends to
the buttermaking has not learned to
be as careful with some certain de-
tails as the professional buttermaker
in the big creamery. Yet these things
are not so difficult to attend to.
It begins with the COW. The milk
must be kept clean and IL must there
fore come from clean cows. 1t must
be properly cared for so that it de-
yelops no bad flavors. At the cream
cry they put in the kind Of bacteria
they desire and get the favor they
want. On the farm this can be at
tended to as well by keeping the
cream clean and at the proper tenn
perature.
Churning has a number Of details
that need more care. Overchurning,
making pasty, greasy butter, is per
haps the most common, The
creamery stops the churn as soon as
the butter is in granules the size Of
wheat grains, but the farmers wife
often churns until the butter is in a
solid lump. This makes a difference,
Overworking IL is another thing that
gives this greasiness. A number OF
such details go together TO make a
better product The farm should pro-
duce the best II is worth while, and
the price that good butter, attractive
ly put up will bring, will more than
pay the difference.

For the last fifteen years all silos
have been built round, and this Is the
only style recommended at present.
The essential things in silo construc-
tion are to have an air tight wall,
smooth on the inside so the silage can
settle properly and structure
sufficiently strong to hold the enor'
nous pressure Of the silage. and dur.
able enough so that 1t will not be
necessary TO replace 1t for some time.
Successful silos have been built in
a variety Of ways of different ma
terials, including wooden slaves, con
crete, wood plastered with cement.
stone, wood, brick, iron and tile.
The most common silo found in
this state is the stave silo. This Is
built on the plan Of -the stave water
tank II is purchased ready to put
together, requiring only that the
foundation be made. A foundation is
built of concrete The walls should
be about eight inches thick and
should extend two or three feet into
the ground On this the silo is
erected
There are many types and forms Of
stave silos, and It is impossible to
say which is best 1t is preferable
to use those having one piece staves.
The continuous door is more con
venient. Little positive evidence is at
hand as to which wood is most suit
able and durable for silo building. The

average number of years wood will

PREPARING FOR THE WHEAT
A. c. Page, University Of Missouri,
CoIlese of Agriculture.

Careful farmers are already prepar-
ing the seed bed for the wheat mat
goes in this fall One of the greatest
factors that limits the production of
wheat ordinarily is the poorly pre-
pared seed bed
Prof. NJ. F. Miller Of the Agronomy
Department Of the University of Mis-
souri, ascribes the "heaying" of wheat
to the loOseness and Goodness of the
lower layer of the bed. If the surface
is plowed and allowed to stand quite,
while, then is narrowed, the top will
appear to be smooth and in good con.
dition while the part a few inches
underneath will be made up of large
clods and openings. These openings
not only cut off the supply Of water
which should rise from the subsoil.
but In a wet time they will fill with
water and lift when a freeze comes.
The simplest remedy, and the most
effective one, for this coarseness in
the lower part Of the seedbed, is 10
disk the ground thoroughly before
plowing It, Then there will be no
clods that cannot be reached and
dealt with. Furthermore, the disked
surface will plow with less horse
power, and the weeds will turn under
better.
Two things then. are extremely i'm.
portant In preparing wheat land: One
is to disk before breaking; the other
Is TO DO II soon enough so that the
! seeded will have time to settle well
before seeding time, The moisture
will be started up and the seed viii
have the best kind of a start.
