stanchlOns that employ the same prin-
ciple for refining the COW, but give
her the utmost freedom and at the
same time keep her clean and pre-
sentable.
A barn that is fitted up with stalls of
this kind is much cleaner. lighter and
brighter, and it is much more easily
cared for There Is no question as to
the Importance and the expediency of
modern barn equipment
The new barns are all being supplied
in this way. and that is as it should
be. but the thing that is even more en-
couraging is the fact that those who
have barns that have been standing
some years are tearing out Anticipated
stalls and supplanting them with those
that are newer and better. 1t takes a
considerable amount of time. educa-
tional work and energy to convince
man who has COW stable that he
should change his entire equipment.
putting in the newer and better for
that which has served its time. but
this Is being done In great many
barns throughout the country, all Of
which goes to show that the dairy
farmers are progressive: they appreci-
ate the Importance Of the best there is
in dairying and are willing to take ad-
vantage of everything that is offered
them.

Modern research has brought to our
industries ut marvellous rate not only
new compounds. but even new ele-
ments. or the fifty metallic elements
now known only seven were in use
1000 years ago. and until 100 years
ago the rate OF addition was less than
one metal for each two centuries.
Within the last twenty-five years
about fourteen metals have been added
to commercial use, an addition at more
than one hundredfold the previous
rate.

IMPROVED DAIRY
BARN EQUIPMENT.

One OF the encouraging things about
dairying is the willingness with which
the farmers of this country are i'm
proving and undermining their dairy
barns. says Kimball's Dairy Farmer
The cement floor has done much to
bring this about, and the great econ
omy and convenience Of modern equip
ment have also had their share in
working the revolution.
No one thinks Of building a new
barn without supplying it with hui
name stalls and stanchions. The old
fashioned wooden partitions that shut
the light out Of the front part Of the
stable-,that made 1t harbor for
germs and fllth-have given place to
the neater. cleaner and more sanitary
and modern stall.
The old fashioned rigid stanchions.
which held the COW very much as the
stocks used to hold their victims in
colonial days. have given place to other

Things to Consider When Selecting .

In the first place it should be remem-
bered that cheap hog Is generally a
poor hog. and poor hog Is expensive
in the end. Whether to buy pig and
wait for him to develop or to buy
young boar ready for service must be
decided. The pig is much cheaper,
naturally. but considerable risk is taken
because nobody can tell for sure what
kind Of hog he will make. II he
comes from first class stock In every
respect and has the marks of good
one not 50 much chance Is taken as If
be were from mediocre stock. A little
coarseness In fast growing pig Is not
Objectionable. Rather 1t is an advan-
tage. as he will largely Outgrow It. 1t
Is rather easy to tell what kind Of a
hog an eight months pig will grow
into. but he will cost considerably
more than weanling.
II buying by mail must be resorted

Journal. A careless or crooked breed

GRAIN RATION FOR COWS.
Dairy Cattle Should Be- Fed According
to MAk Production.


to MAk Production.
A good many feeders vary the
amount Of feed they give their cows
according to the price OF the feed RI
Their than from what their cows are
doing When grain in high in price
the claim Is often made that 1t doesn't
pay to feed the cows very much grain.
As Il matter Of fact. If we have a cow
that is worth feeding at all she should
have all the grain that she can make
proper returns for.
She should have all the rough feed
such as hay. silage. corn fodder. etc,
she can eat up clean. Then she should
get about One-third as much grain as
she gives pounds Of milk. A COW CIV
ing six quarts Of milk twice day IS
giving about twenty-five pounds Of
milk per day. She should have about
eight pounds of ground feed divided
into two rations. one in the morning
and one at night.
When the COW begins to fall of In
her milk the feed should be gradually
cut down so as to keep the proportion
about one-third as much grain as she
gives milk.
A good COW will use about One-half
Of all the feed she can possibly eat for
keeping up her own weight. She will
use this necessary amount whether
she gets all the feed she ought to get
or gets only partly enough. II we
give the COW three-fourths Of a ration
she uses two-thirds Of the amount to
keep her body at a given weight and
only returns dairy products for the
other third. The cost of all the feed
she eats and the profit must come out
Of this one-third.
II we give this same COW all the feed
she needs. keeping in mind the above
proportions between meal and milk.
she uses one-half Of the total ration
for body maintenance and the other
one-half for product. 1t IL easy to
figure out which Is the more economi-
cal ration. II Is a mistake to under
feed COW and It Is mistake to over.

The Ayrshire dairy cattle are
coming into favor In this country.
This breed was developed under
rather severe conditions in the
southwestern part Of Scotland. This
fact probably makes them able to
adapt themselves very readily to
local conditions. They are not as
large as the Holsteins, the cows
ordinarily averaging about 1000
pounds In weight. The colors range
from spotted red and brown and
white to nearly white. AS a dairy
cattle they are noted for a good
uniform production of milk testing
little less than per cent on an
average. with high per cent Of
other solids. In general appear
ance the mature Ayrshire cow is
smooth and we'll filled out, al
though Of good dairy form. College

last night that he was 'up against it,

proceedings under which Thaw's lawyers
hope to obtain his release on writ of
habeas corpus on Wednesday next.
Last night Thompson removed the
eyeglasses he has worn since his arrest
here and openly admitted that the name
Mitchell Thompson he had given the au-
thorities was fictitious and that in real
ity he is Roger Thompson, car salesman
and daredevil chauffeur, who drove the
