WILSON AND HIS CABINET

While the most important business
the governor has on hand deals with
the approaching session of the New
Jersey legislature, of far greater i'm
portance to the public is the task Of
choosing the advisers who will sit in
his cabinet. While everyone by this
time believes that Mr.. Wilson has a
mind of his own and a very definite
general purpose as to the course he
will pursue, yet we cannot be blind to
his difficulties and p~erplexities, which
are bound to arise at almost every
step. Therefore it is of the utmost i'm
portance that he should have a cabinet
composed of wise, patriotic and cour-
ageous men. In the first place, Mr..
Bryan must be disposed of. There are
many who protest the suggestion of
Mr.. Bryan going into the cabinet, but
unless we mistake not Mr.. Bryan vas
the first man t whom an intimation
was made that a portfolio was his for
the taking.
Yet, looking at things in a plain,
blunt American way, why should not
Mr.. Bryan go into the cabinet? But
for Mr.. Bryan's position at Baltimore
it is altogether improbable that Mr..
Wilson would have obtained the demo
cratic nomination. It is also firmly
believed that Mr.. Wilson Is one of the
two individuals whom Mr.. Bryan
would ardently desire to e elected
president on the democratic ticket dur
ing the last sixteen years.
Naturally 1t will shock a great many
persons engaged in finance and bust
ness for Mr.. Bryan to be a member Of
Mr.. Wilson's cabinet. He has been
spoken Of as secretary Of state: he
has been spoken of as secretary of
the treasury. Yet no secretary OF
state and nc secretary of the treasury
al mislead q president IL he is a
strong, resolute man with a will of
his own and q faculty for calm re-
flection.-New York Herald.

Feeding Brood Sows
During the Winter.

Mature brood sows In this state In
winter can be cared for and fed so as
TO get maximum returns from them as
easily as can be done anywhere. First
thing TO be considered Is a dry, warm
place for them to sleep, that Is a
place cit of the snow and out Of the
wind. All the warmth that Is neces-
sary Is that warmth made by the SOW
herself from the amount of feed she
consumes and a well bedded nest
where she may rest out OF the wind
and draft. When such a place is sup
piled the skill or knowledge OF the
feeder carves out his success or failure.
Mature sows need only enough feed
60 develop the litter in utero and to
add a little weight, five to seven
pounds per 100 pounds live weight,
along with a maintenance quantity OF
food to furnish heat and energy for
daily use.
We find that very good results are
obtained from feeding about three
fourths OF a pound OF corn, one-third
of a pound of shorts and one-half OF a
pound OF bran with one-eighth OF a
pound Of tankage per 100 pounds live
weight daily.
We find some difficulty in getting
the sows to exercise, so we feed the
corn along with some oats, about half
and half, upon the cement floor OF the
barn In some straw, necessitating the
SOW standing upon her feet and hunting
her feed for an hour or so each day.
During the warmer days. when the
sows, can be out of doors. they should
be put out to exercise in a wind pro-
tected place.
During this time OF year the feeder
cannot neglect the mineral require
ments OF the SOW and the litter in
utero. They should have access to
bone meal. some charcoal and salt at
all times; a little air Stacked lime is
good for them also.
The way to keep these mineral ele-
ments before them Is to have a shell
tered trough divided into four divisions
and In each division contain the above

TT IT
QUESTION. Give the valuable
properties of cotton cloth.
ANSWER. (By Domestic Science
DEPARTMENT.. 1t is the most inexpen-
sive of the fabrics used for cloth
ing. 1t is a good conductor of heat;
hence it is not as desirable as wool
for cold climates. 1t does not wrinkle
as easily as linen, but on account of
short oily fiber it soils more readily.
QUESTION. Can one have running
water in a farmhouse? If so, how?
ANSWER. (5y E. S. keene.)
There are several systems of water
supply for rural homes which might
be used to provide running water and
all OF the kitchen, laundry and bath
room conveniences as completely as
with city water supply and with but
slightly greater expense. The type of
plant will depend on local conditions
and the source of the water. Both
the pressure tank and the pneumatic
pump are o used for purposes of
this kind with great success. Where
natural conditions permit the hydraulic
ram affords an excellent means of
water supply at a minimum of ex-
pense and trouble In operation.
QUESTION. Are potato digging ma
chimes a successT
ANSWER. (By r. M. DoIve.) Po-
tato digging machines are successful
and no one should attempt to raise
over five acres without having one.
There is perhaps no line of machinery
that differs more in construction and
principle of operation than do different
makes Of Potato machinery. In buy
ing a digger the best Is always the
cheapest, although the first cost may
be high.
QUESTION. What makes a good
pasture for hogs?
ANSWER. (By c. J.. Thompson.)
The best possible hog pastures are
those of the leguminosae. which in,
cludes the plants of alfalfa, clover
COW peas, SOW beans and vetches.
QUESTION. Does cream from diff
ferent breeds of cows churn the same
ANSWER. (By G. /. MARTINI As
a rule larger fat globules churn easier
than the smaller ones Jersey ant
Guernsey cows produce larger globules
than Holsfein and Ayrshire cows
Quite often cream from the formel
breeds hars easier for these rea
sons.

bins so that the grain may be sprouted
directly into the mixing troughs shown
In the floor plan.
The silo as shown Is of the stave
type, twenty feet In diameter by twen-
ty-four feet In depth, with an approx
mate capacity of 1876 tons.
The barn is of the curb roof type,
which gives ample space for hay. As
many curb rooted barns have been
built with q weak and defective roof
construction, particular attention Ia
called to the method of brac.ng the
roof as shown in the illustration Of an
end section.
The stable is nine feet high,
but the height may be varied to suit
climatic conditions-some dairymer
prefer lower ceilings In cold climates
The posts are sixteen feet high and
the total height of the barn is thirty
four and q half feet. The hay NOV
will bold approximately 100 tons of hay
when filled to the break in the curl
roof.

DAIRY BARNS.
BY r. M. Dolve, Professor Az
ricultural Engineering, North
Dakota Agricultural College.

The accompanying illustrations show
a dairy barn accommodating thirty
cows. The stables are arranged in
two rows with the COWS facing u or
towards the side walls. The feeding
alleys in front of the manger are four
feet wide and each one is provided
with a centrally located hay chute
(see loft plan) which makes the feed
ing OF hay a simple operation. For
greater convenience in handling grain
and silage. feed carriers with a track
extending into the mixing room and
to the silo may be provided.
The stalls, hangers, cutters, etc,
may be of any approved size and con-
struction.
The driveway is ten feet wide be-
tween the cutters, giving ample width
for driving through with a large
manure spreader or wagon. This ar
rangement makes cleaning the barn
very convenient and this barn plan is
preferred by a great many dairymen
on that account.
The store room or mixing room
should be provided with sinks and
lavatories in which the men may wash
their hands and utensils. This room
is placed Immediately below the grain

mineral substances. Caution should
be exercised in putting salt before
sows, as when not sailed for some
time they will invariably eat enough
to cause their death.
The amount of water that pigs drink
In winter Is perhaps OF vastly more
importance than 10 most commonly
supposed. II good health Is desired
among the brood sows II Is a good pol
icy to make their slop OF warm water.
1t adds to the p~alatability OF the feed
and saves energy Of the food and body
for purposes other than heating up
the quantity of food and water con-
sumed.
Water with the chill taken on Is
always liked by pigs in winter and by
furnishing this water In most agree
able form we can easily get our pigs
TO drink enough TO supply the bodily
needs. which is o always the case
when pigs have access only to a half
frozen water trough.
To sum up. then, the best way to
feed brood sows In winter Is to feed
them . well balanced ration consisting
Of q variety Of grains or mill products,

Bring one quart Of vinegar to boil.
Ing. add n ounce of st~rychnine, stir
with q stick until fully dissolved and
then add six quarts Of hot water. Pour
this on twenty pounds OF wheat or
corn and allow to stand for about
eighteen hours or until the solution Is
entirely absorbed. but the mass must
be frequently stirred so that all grain
Is poisoned. Now dry the poisoned
grain In a protected place.
Make one gallon Of thick syrup and
when cool add one tablespoon of anis
oil, which can be had at any drug
