Buy the Herd Boar Early.

One Of the greatest advantages that
the farmer can have in the early pur-
chase Of his herd boar lies in the fact
that he has first choice from among
the animals offered. No breeder has
yet succeeded in producing a perfect
lot Of pigs. The most successful
breeders are those who produce the
largest number of good pigs, but all
breeders produce inferior pigs and
those which have only a mediocre
quality. The farmer who waits until
he Is ready to use the boar before buy
ing him Is forced to take what Is left
Of the breeding herd after all other
sales have been made from it. He
may possibly get q good animal, but
the chances are against him, and the
small cost Of feed which the boar con-
sumes during the months before he is
actually used Is more than Offset by
this opportunity for first choice and
by the fact that the farmer can train
the boar himself and fit him to his en
vironment in his new home. There is
profit tt be had in buying the bears
young for these reasons, as well as for
the added and important reason that
he does not cost so much when bought
young as he does when grown to ma
turity.

A Few Words About Spray
ing

Every owner of fruit trees
should plan to give them some
attention in the way of spray
ing. There is no thing that
will pay so well if intelligently
done. Before starting to
spray, a careful study should
be made of the insects or
fungi you have to deal with,
in order to determine the best
mixture as well as the best
time to spray; we will be
glad to give to anyone for the
asking a little booklet cover
ing fully all things that a
farmer ought to know about
spraying.

Serum For Calf Scours,

In the past considerable loss has
been sustained by Wisconsin cattle
breeders from a fatal disease of calves
known as white scours or calf dysen-
terry. The veterinary science depart
ment of the college of agriculture Of
the University of Wisconsin calls at
tention to a serum which has been
found especially reliable as a preven-
tive treatment for this disease. White
scours occur in the newborn calf and
is manifested by a very profuse, NAL
odorous white diarrhea, which usually
results In death within a few hours.
On account of it's infectious nature af.
fected calves and their dams must be
isolated to prevent the disease from
spreading to other animals. Careful
