Solid concrete dairy houses, such
as are found on the large dairy farms,
are to be recommended. A building

The accompanying floor plan, from

A concrete tank near the pump
makes cooling of the milk convenient.
The separator should be located In

a sink and rack can be located at one
end Of the building. This room should
be used exclusively for washing and
drying cans and bottles. A room with
shelves suitable for storing milk
should be partitioned on from the op-

The walls and floor of the dairy

If they are maltreated in any way. be
sure to cut off all the bruised parts

the top branches OF the plant.
Newly ported plants sometimes do
not do we'll at first. Don't expect too
much of your plants until they are
well established. As soon as new

Cows that are not kept in milk well

The COW with d good appetite is a
better producer than the one that is

The only object Of working is to

Wheat bran and linseed meal make
the best combinations to give fresh

Harvest goes on the year around

Cream should be churned at as low

A large udder is not always to be
trusted as a sure sign of a good

A good pasture lot near the barn

FAIRY NOTES

Rye may be cut for hay aud used
for all CLASSES OF live stock.
The demand for agricultural ex-
perts far exceeds the supply.
Poultry manure is particularly good
for forcing the growth OF onions.
Stock raising Is the best insurance
against an impoverished agriculture.
A clover sod turned down makes
an excellent foundation for a corn
crop.
Use nitrate Of soda or liquid ma
nure for crops that are growing
slowly.
Whenever a farmer gets the auto
fever he at once becomes a good-road
preacher.
'Worn-out" manure from old hot
beds Is Just the thing for mushroom
beds IN the cellar.
Keep the stables and the yards
clean so that flies and insects have
no breeding place.
To kill Canada thistle in a FIELD,
put the field IN some cultivated crop
and keen the weeds down.

When the field is plowed UP, n they

The remedy is to grow some other

They deposit their eggs IN June or
early July. The eggs hatch into larvae
that eat their way into the crown and
