LIVE STOCK AS HOME GRAIN
MARKET MAKERS.

IN talking with Professor Hunziker,
Chief of the Department of Dairy Hus-
bandry at Purdue, on the subject Of
Live Stock on the Farm, as profitable
market makers for the farm grain
products, the Professor gave the fol-
lowing interesting table on possible
corn consumption by dairy cattle alone
in Indiana.
He said: 81 have not the necessary
statistics within reach to estimate
what portion of the corn crop Of our
state is consumed by dairy cattle or
that by beef cattle, but take for in
stance, as an estimate, according to
1910, the corn crop in Indiana aver
aged 1913 bushels per acre. 1t Is es-
timated that with this yield, that the
acre will produce about ten tons of
corn silage. The average COW eats
during the year (about eight months)
six tons Of corn silage, containing
about twenty-three and one-half bush
els of corn. The average COW posi-
bly, receives four pounds of corn meal
daily eight months of the year,
amounting to fourteen bushels of corn.
Thus the total corn consumed per cow
in the State would average thirty-sev-
en- and one-half bushels; as we have
666,00 dairy COWS in Indiana, the dairy
consumption would amount to about
24,975,000 bushels annually.
The man on the farm who is figur-
ing like any man who is engaged in
commercial pursuits must, is no doubt
winning success as a result, and the
man who takes advantage of such
splendid education as that afforded by
the National Dairy Show at Chicago
each year, will have laid before him
the latest result of the work Of his
fellow men in every department of
dairying that will make for an increase
in profit from his operations

BREAKING OUT ON LEG

Hilltop, Kan.-"About two years ago
began to notice a breaking out on my
leg. At first it was very small but
soon it began to spread until it formed
large blotches. The itching was ter
Jible and almost constant. Many
nights I could not sleep at all. After
scratching it to relieve the itching it
would burn so dreadfully that I
thought I could not stand it. For near
y year I tried all kinds of salves
and ointment, but found no relief.
Some salyes seemed to make it worse
until there were ugly sores, which
would break open and run.
One day I saw an advertisement Of
Cuticura Remedies. I got a sample Of
the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Oint-
ment and began by washing the sores
with the Cuticura Soap, then applying
the Cuticura Ointment twice a day.
I noticed a change and got more Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment and in few
weeks I was cured. It has healed so
nicely that no scar remains" (Signed)

big, husky farmers boy drifted into
Easton to visit his cousin, said boy

Easton team was playing a double
header against Sunbury, another At

The cousin suggested that they
spend the afternoon at the ball game
and Kocher, who was something Of a
catcher in White Haven, agreed to
go along. In the seventh inning of
the first game Catcher Barrett was
put out with bunged finger and the
game was about to be called off when
the cousin tipped the manager off to
the fact that Kocher could catch.
Kocher didn't want to catch

so informed the manager, making
the proposition that he would catch
if he received his quarter back An
agreement reached, he put on Bar
