II they only knew how. Others know

Look Up that silo proposition early.
Don't forget that the solutions that
are used in spraying fruit trees. also
i those that are used ia treating SEED
grain for smut are poisonous and are
I liable to cause death 70 persons and
animals as well as the things we in
tend to kill with them. a fool and
his life may be soon parted i the
fool gets to fooling With poisons.
Choose brood sows from the ear
liest and largest litters.
Spring house cleaning should in
clude the outbuildinps and the lawn.
also the back yard. A little paint
added to the cleaning help bright
en things ZIP and make the home
more homelike.
There Is no way Of telling just how
much forage it will take to carry q
bunch Of cattle through the winter
because winters are so unlike and
even after winter is over, spring
keeps us guessing until the last min
ute as to when we can feel sure that
the pastures are able to take care Of
the stock.
Have clean sand for concrete work
as dirty sand will cause unsatisfac-
tory results.
The difference in the cost OF a
twenty-six-inch and thirty-nine-inch
woven-wire fence is not enough to
make up the difference in the value
of the fence after it is built. At least
that is my experience. Animals that
cannot be turned by a well built
thirty-nine-inch fence with barbed
wire at the top are out Of place on
the farm.
Keep the young orchard clear OF
weeds this season and there will be
little damage from mice this winter.
This was not an early spring when
we figure from the teamwork stand
point. The early ones found the fields
very sticky and if they stuck to their
work they got their machines pretty
we'll stuck up. Later many OF them
will find that their crop is nothing to
feel stuck up about because no one
has ever raised 4 bumper crop that
was ''mudded in.
Do you practice regularity IN the
feeding hour for the hogs?
At the present time most of us are
interested in the good roads question
because, just now a heavy shower
makes the average road thing we
all like to stay away from. Reading
good roads literature may help some,
but taking spade and ditching the
water out of the wheel tracks and
opening culverts will help a whole
lot.
Begin early to fight the mites with
all your might.
Little pigs should be made to take
exercise and the sow ought not to be
fed on too rich slop for time. Lack
Of exercise and the mother sow eat
ing too rich slop is a great combina-
ton for the development OF the
thumps.
The high-whceled planter is a little
more tiresome to hop off and onto,
but / have notion that it runs stead
ier and am certain it pulls easier.
The man who almost lies down
and pulls on the check every time he !
sets the stake need not expect very
straight cross checking. Pulling the
wire in the field makes the man on
the cultivator dodge" when cross
ing the field.
