MANS LANGUAGE TO BRUTES
Peculiar Click and chlrp Used to Start
and Hasten Horses Used IN
Many Parts Of World.

The tale Of the farmer in the Ara
bian Nights who could understand the
language Of animals and fowls in his
barnyard probably had its origin In
the ancient myth which asserted that
in primitive times men and beasts
were able to converse together.
In truth, as everybody knows. there
are certain sounds, or words. which
horses, dogs and other animals can be
taught to understand; and, on the 9TH
er hand, some Of the sounds uttered
by domestic animals have a meaning
that man can understand. All this Is.
Of course. a very different thing from
language. and yet It has a certain
scientific interest. evidenced by the
various Investigations that have been
made.

hearted and Loses All interest In
Llfe-Strange Case.

That animals may suffer from home
sickness is indicated by story In the
New York Times concerning q Bac-
trian camel in the Bronx park ZOO.
Sheik is not up to his usual spirits.
Sheik, It must be understood. Is not
sick. He Is simply downhearted. and
his interest in life has lessened. It
was Curator Ditmars who finally dag
nosed his case. and according to his
theory Sheik Is simply suffering from
homesickness.
He will crouch for hours outside his
house. and often he will turn his face
toward the street and gaze with eyes
In which there Is a faraway express
sion out upon the boulevard. His in.
terest is not In those who pass, for
he had even become Indifferent to the
Jest about the camel's abstemious
habits. Mr.. Ditmars, who holds the
opinion that animals have minds and
can exercise them. believes that Sheik,
In his mind, Is once more on the des-
ert.
The cause OF the camel's state Of
mind, in Mr.. Ditmar's theory, is
most remarkable one. and one Of the
strangest which he has come across In
his animal studies. There is a great

There is no animal on the farm
that turns a larger profit in proper
ton to the money invested than
sheep.
Old sheep sometimes make good
money for experienced sheepfnen, but
young sheepmen should start with
young sheep.

The profit in keeping cows comes
from the extra amount OF milk that
they give above the ordinary yield on

Hogs should have access to water
at all times, and running water is to
be preferred, unless it flows through
farms where other hogs are kept.
It costs money to inclose the chick

Keep the hrooders clean.
Growing chicks require meat.
Poultry require much attention.
Corn Is the best finishing food for
hogs.
The freshest eggs always hatch the
best.
Plan for a big lot of roots for the
sheep this year.
Easier to hatch a fine lot OF chicks
than 1t is to raise them.
Keep q good brood SOW as long as
she will produce satisfactory filters.
Be sure that the heifer Is well de-
Veloped before allowing her to be
bred.
It Is better to give cow six to eight
weeks rest between periods Of lacta-
Hon.
The disadvantage about June chicks
Is that they will not mature for laying
IN the fall.
Young chicks sometimes occupy
nests-that have been so long used that
they are alive with vermin.
Neglect to keep ones obligations to
furnish eggs has been the ruination OF
q great many poultry farmers.
Some poultrymen feed cut bone the
year around, and records show an in
crease in their laying capacity.
A two-weeks' diet Of cornmeal and
skimmilk will mean an extra profit on
any culled out birds to be marketed.
The best calves should be selected
from each years crop. This Is the
only way to keep the herd in good
shape.
Never misrepresent the age OF an
egg. You can't AFFORD to sell your
soul for the sake OF selling a few
eggs.
The sleeps meridian OF life is six
years. After that the downhiIl side
comes at pretty good jog. 1t pays to
remember this.
II the young chicks have gapes, you
may be sure that the soil is contami-
mated by cape worms. somewhere near
the poultry yard.
According to Prof. X. c. Davis Of
the new Jersey agricultural expert
ment station, alfalfa Is as easily
grown as any hay crop.
Be sure there are no narrow doors
for the ewes to crowd through. One
Jam may cause the loss OF lamb,
or both eve and lamb.
It is much easier to start with stock
that is a proven success than 1t is to
breed up. The latter is a costly as
well as tiresome experiment.
According to those who have eggs
for Matching there will be many new
fanciers. These breeders are report
ing large numbers Of small sales.
A small investment will fix up al
most any stable. With few more
windows and some ventilating flues
the result will be thoroughly valuable.
The best weaver you can put on the
calf is never to allow It to suck the
cow after the first few days, the first
milk (colostrum) being necessary for
the calf.
