Prince Frederick-Thew work of con-
structing a seawall of concrete about
the lighthouse property at Cove Point,
in Calvert county, is in progress. The
wall is seven feet thick at base, eight
cen inches at top and is four feet
above sea level. The wall will prove
an effective barrier against erosion of
the land by high waves from the Sc
verest storms on the Chesapeake Bay
Thirty workmen are engaged on the
work which, with favorable weather,
will be completed by the first of the
coming year. Material and supplies
for the work are brought to Cove
Point by the government lighthouse
tender Jessamine. The embankment
at Cove Point lighthouse was greatly
damaged by the severe storm of Sep
TENDER 90 last, when the highest tide
seen in the bay for many years pre-
vailed. Cove Point is an important
signal station for incoming and out
going steamers to Baltimore.

acres of this blue grass the breeding
herd is maintained during the pasture

spend cleaning up the stalk fields,

During the last five years the calf

HEAD A MASS OF PIMPLES

Hyattsville, Md.-"My little boy was
taken with an itching on the scalp.
There was an ashy place on his head
about the size of ten-cent piece, and
the hair was falling from this place
by the roots. In about ten days all
which looked like ringworm, but were
porous-like. The itching and burning
made him scratch a great deal. His
head had gotten so that it was just a
mass of mattery little pimples all
heaped on each other, and when l took
off his night-cap, the hair and flesh
came off at the same time. l really
thought he would lose his whole scalp.
He couldn't sleep for five weeks, it
would itch and burn until l thought
he would go into commissions.
Il used different soaps and salves
to no satisfaction. Then l decided to
use the Cuticura Soap and Ointment.
Finally noticed he began to sleep all
night. I used one cake of Cuticura
Soap and one box of Cuticura ONT

has a better growth of hair now than
he had at first" (Signed) Mrs. Ida

Aberdeen S. Moore, of Swan

negro boy, Grant Ringgold, near his
home, as he was driving from Havre
de Grace. After Mr.. Moore had stop
ped at the farm of Rev David Jami-

bought there, this boy, who was cut
ting wood, saw his roll of money, and,
following him, struck him on the head
with a white oak stick, inficting a
wound five inches long and one-half
inch wide. He then ran away with
out searching Mr.. Moore's pockets. A
heavy cap served to protect Mr.
MoOres head and he was not rendered
unconscious, but was able to turn and
drive after his assailant, whom he did
not overtake, as he was too weak to
continue the drive. He went home and
put his horse away. There was no
one at home, and colored woman,
seeing his condition, notified his SON

or Indifferent that he may be able to
pick up about the country, it is not
likely that he will succeed in even
turning off a load of market topping

struck the front section, causing a
general telescoping. Despite this, the

EXCELLENT FEED

(Ry NJ. BERNARDO

The most successful poultrymen
feed some kind of animal food to
their chickens of all ages and condi-
tons. In the wild state birds secure
both vegetable and animal foods. Bugs
and worms supply the animal food,
and seeds and other vegetable growth
the vegetable food. The animal por-
ton of the food is always a necessity
for normal maturity and good egg
laying.
So essential is animal matter in the
poultry feeds that the packing firms
manufacture and sell large quantities
of prepared beef scraps and ground
bone. which are sold very widely over
the country. Those who use them

Everyone who keeps COWS and

profitable TO preserve all the milk for

food that can be given to them. Give

their predecessors were sold in June,
all to themselves. Here they get corn
and cob meal, enough to keep the calf
fat in place and add to it little each
day. At this stage Mr.. Beath has
added each year to his bunch of home
crowns" what calves Of quality he
could pick up in the neighborhood.
All are fed we'll and kept coming until
cold weather commences and pasture
is gone.
For the first two years corn and cob
meal, clover hay, corn fodder, and cot.
ton seed meal were depended upon
to continue the process of making the
calves into beef. Money was made
on that basis, but for the last three
years corn silage has been an impor-
tant factor in producing this result
About December 1 the silo is opened
and from then on until grass comes
again the calves get about all the ST
lage they will eat. Indeed they eat
some even after grass comes. The
daily silage ration is from twelve to
fifteen and sometimes as high as
eighteen pounds. With the silage they
eat from five to six pounds day Of
corn and cob meal, until along in
March when the corn is gradually in
creased to as high as eleven pounds
day. Some cotton seed meal is also
fed toward the close of the feeding
period, beginning at half pound OF
the meal per head and gradually in
creasing to a pound and half a day
Usually at marketing time, which
comes in June, there are two loads Of
calves to ship. They weigh around
500 pounds at from eleven to thirteen
months of age. During the past five
years they have gone below the $50
mark but once G91D. They have
averaged better than $50 head for
the five years. Every year they have
made profit.
Many of the breeding cows are
still young, growing as well as pro-
ducing The older cows are fatted
and turned off as their usefulness de-
clines or they fail to produce a calf
1t is a safe estimate that the average
yearly cash income for each COW III
the herd is better than $50
While there is nothing startling in
this method of beef production. there
apparently is sure profit in it, The
COWS are cheaply kept, the pasture
land is we'll employed and the ele-
ment of speculation involved in buy
| ing high priced feeders is avoided
The rough feed and coarse folders are
| all utilized and converted into market
able beef and valuable farm manure.
Little corn and no roughage is bought
! All the crops are raised on the farm
and fed there so that little fertility
is lost from the farm and the cost of
marketing of the farm products is
| reduced to the minimum. Little hired
labor is necessary. Hogs follow the
cattle and consume the waste of the
cattle feeding and make extra profit
and the farm is growing more pro-
ductive When the methods and re-
suits of some of the most successful
beef producers are studied it looks as
if there is money after all in produc-
ing beef on high priced land and those
of our Wisconsin farmers who do not
want to go into dairying, who have
farms adapted to beef production,
need not let the high priced land ar
gument disturb them in the least
about getting into beef raising at
once.
