WILSON ON DAIRY INDUSTRY
Extensive Demand for Products In
Newly Settled RegIons--Deveiop-
ment Urgently Needed.

In much Of the west cattle raising
for beef has long been the principal
business" said Secretary Wilson. but
dairying is comparatively new There
is an extensive market, however. for
dairy products: and especially in the
newly settled regions it is found that
the dairy industry fills such a place
In agricultural economy that its de-
velopmsnt is urgently needed.
In addition. special enterprise
has been undertaken with creamery
patrons in Iowa. the object being to
determine whether II win pay cream
cries to carry on the same sort of
work among their own farmer patrons
for the sake Of getting better quail
ity Of cream as material for making
butter. Here. also. record keeping
has been introduced, along with other
improved methods, and the effort il
made to discover the leaks that re-
duce profits.
In the older states of the north,
where dairying is already an estab-
lished industry, the work OF the de-
partment outside OF advice to individ-
uals upon request. consists chiefly in
the propagation Of cow-testing asso-
Citations and the improvement Of city
milk supplies. Cow-testing associa-
lions are societies for cooperating in
the keeping Of herd records by en-
gaging a man who goes from farm to
farm periodically, makes observations.
and keeps records for the herds of all
the members of the association. BY
this means records are secured with
out the trouble or expense involved
when each man keeps them for him
self; and IN various other ways the
cooperation of the farmers is produo-
tive of proht The primary objects
are tc detect and weed out inferior
individual cows, and by the use OF
purebred bulls to perpetuate and in
tensify the valuable characteristics Of
the cows that are found to be good
ones--thus raising the average quail
ity OF the individual COW and the to-
tai productiveness OF the herd. There
are IS cow-testing associations now In
20 states, comprising $4,000 cows.
THE records of one of these asso-
ciations show that the profit was
doubled after four years work. For
instance, a man with eight cows
foung. the first month of keeping rec
ords. that he was losing five and one
half cents per COW, or A cents on his
herd for that month. After three
months testing he was making q
profit Of $32 month on the herd, and
at the end Of the year his profits had
increased to $50 month. This not
able increase was due largely to the
sale Of i've OF his poorest cows. and
the purchase of as many well-produc-
ing ones to take their places. In addi-
ton. there We're changes made In the
methods Of feeding which conduced to
the result"

According to reports gathered by
the National Association for the Study
and Prevention Of tuberculosis, prac-
tically 10 per cent. Of all deaths In
church congregations are caused by
tuberculosis. In a study OF 312. 900
communicates of 725 churches in
which there were 1000 deaths in 1910.
the death rate among these church
members was found to be 2.24 for
every thousand communicates. This
is higher than the rate for the regis
tration area of the United States,
which was 1.60 In 1910.

Carrots should be raised In quanti-

very valuable addition to the feed in
making It palatable They require

Linseed meal in small quantities

. Last winter we saw a bunch of IS
steers being fed on a farm near
Aurora, ILL., These cattle stood in a
large lot on the side of hill In mud
up to their knees. The barn and all
its surroundings were as filthy as
could be imagined. and we were not
surprised when the owner. looking
gloomily over his cattle, remarked: Il
never seemed to hit of steer feeding
to any great advantage"
Heavily timbered land does not
make good feeding ground for cattle
because the sun cannot dry out the
ground as quickly as an open lot.
The best feeding shed for 96P9le is
one that is wind-tight on the north,
east and west and entirely oAes> on
the south.
OF course a paved feed lot is an
expensive proposition at the start, but
we believe that on a reasonable cost
the profit will more than Justify the
expense. Even If man cannot afford
to pave his feed lot he can drain 1t
with thing and by the addition of
gravel. and small, smooth stones Inn
prove its condition at very small cost.
Oats make an ideal feed for the
lamb during the winter, but he needs
about only pound a day to keep in
fine condition. In addition he must
have clover hay or alfalfa OF corn fod-
der and turnips and other roots at
least three times a week
A very handy wheelbarrow for the
feed lot can be made of either wood
or iron. The frame should be very
strong. but not heavy Iron makes

be made in four sections and bolted

would be better. II the frame is made

wood and bolted on. Wood is better
for this purpose.

compulsory, and are rather overdone,
according to some Of our informants.
In 1880 Count A. Tolstoy, cousin of
the literary Leo and then minister Of
education for the Russias, became
obsessed with the idea that in copious
doses of the classics would lie the
dissipation of the empires social un-
rest and that their study would foster
spirit Of conservatism. So he dealt
out, Latin and Greek with a generous
hand and the rising generation still
has to stagger along with his unwel-
come legacy. Gymnasia. of course.
are to be found only in the towns and
cities.
The kommerscheskaia are private
and trade schools. The courses of
mental instruction are much easier
than those of the gymnasia. They oc-
cur in the big towns and cities. and
are largely filled with the children of
the Jews.
In the national free schools OF ST.

the attendance Is permitted to be

much hardship IN the villages, but in
