QUESTION AND ANSWER
DEPARTMENT
Conducted by Professors of the
Wisconsin College Of Agriculture


Q.-Has the alfalfa weevil been
q md in Wisconsin?
Al am glad to report that as far
IS is known the alfalfa WeeviI has
not been introduced into Wisconsin
and is hardly known outside OF GER
tain regions about the state OF Utah.
There are, however, several insects
which are doing more or less damage
to alfalfa IN Wisconsin, but nothing
which is as yet classed as an ex-
tremely serious pest. such as the true
alfalfa weevil.-J. G. S,
Q.-Is cheese colored in the same
manner as butter, or is it naturally
yellow with age?
A.-The yellow color of American
cheese does not increase with age In
midsummer. when cows are on full
grass feed, both milk and cheese have
natural yellow or golden color.
which is absent in the winter time,
when COWS are fed on hay Since most
markets prefer cO!ored cheese, it is
the custom for cheesemakers general
~ to add to milk in the winter some
artificial colOring matter, which is not
injurious to health and which gives
the winter cheese a somewhat deeper
color than the natural color OF sum-
mer cheese. In order to make cheese
of uniform color throughout the year
the addition Of little of the artificial
color Is commonly continued through
out the summer also, the same as in
butter making. In some markets,
white or uncOlored cheese is preferred
and this is made III precisely the same
manner as the colored cheese, but
without the addition of artificial col
oring matter to the milk. l.. s.
Q.-Does trimming the long teeth
Of horse give him toothache?
A.-Positively no, This is account
ed for by the fact that the teeth of
the horse are structura!ly different
from those of man. The horses teeth
are composed Of hal1 and soft struc-
lures, Of which the former predomi-
mates, forming the greater part OF
most teeth. The hard substances
(dentine, enamel, cement) are not sup
piled with sensitive nerves, 50 opera
tions like floating, trimming and the
like, which involve only the non-sen-
stive parts of the teeth, will not
cause pain.-F b. IL.
Q.-What is the best time of year to
breed ewes?
A.-Ewes naturally breed in the
fall, when the weather begins to get
cool. When to start breeding lies en-
tirely with the flock owner If he
should reside In the northern part OF
the state, where the winters are
longer than In the southern part
about November Is would be early
enough while in southern Wisconsin
breeders begin about September 20
/, The time for breeding depends to a
large extent upon whether the flock
owner has a good barn or not. 1t
should always be remembered that
little lambs will do far better in a
moderately warm barn than in an
open cold shed. Where possible and
circumstances will allow early breed
ing is preferable.
Q.-Is 1t wise for q Wisconsin farm
err to try to raise dollhouse lambs? Is

WHY HESITATE e.?
An Offer That Involves no Money
Risk il You Accept 1t.

We are so positive our remedy will
completely relieve constipation, no mat
ter how chronic it may be, that we offer
to furnish it free of all cost if it fails.
Constipation is commonly caused by
weakness of the nerves and muscles of
the large intestine. To expect cure
you must therefore tone up and
strengthen those organs and restore
them to healthier activity.
We want you to try Rexall Orderlies
on our guarantee. They are eaten like
candy, and are particularly good for
children. They seem to act directly on
the nerves and muscles of the bowels.
They apparently have neutral action
on the other organs. They do not
purge or cause other Inconvenience.
We will refund your money if they do
not overcome chronic or habitual con
stipation and thus aid to relieve the
myriads of associate or dependent chonic
ailments, Try Rexall Orderles at our
risk, Three sizes, Toe, 90c., and soc.

BRYAN MAY THROW
HAT IN RING At
BALTIMORE
Commoner Gives Impression
He is Getting in Receptive
Mood for Fourth Nomination
for Presidency,
IBy Morning journal sDeclnI Leased wir. ,

Washington, April 24.--Thc visit
of William j. Bryan to Washington
yesterday and his conference with
various party leaders. particularly in
the senate. was followed today by
widespread discussion of the posi-
bility that the distinguished Nebras-
kan might again be the democratic
candidate for president.
Mr.. Bryan frankly said to inter
viewers that he was not a candidate
for the nomination in any sense OF
the word and that it was difficult
for him to conceive of any circum-
stance under which he might be IA
candidate, He said there were plenty
of other progressives in the party
from whom selection could be
made.
Despite this public utterance some
democratic senators today in dis
cussing their informal talks with Mr.
Bryan were inclined to the belief
that under certain conditions Mr.
Bryan would not decline the nomi-
nation.
In short the impression left was
that If Colonel Roosevelt should be
the republican nominee Mr. Bryan
would like to take tine field against
him.
