age quantity of milk, say from twenty
five to thirty pounds of milk of aver
age quality, will produce but little
more when fed grain to supplement
good pasture, and for economy of pro-
duction should not be so fed.
Quite extensive feeding investiga-
tons, carried on by the Cornell exper-
iment station, resulted in the follow
ing conclusion: That an additional
pound of milk was secured for each
pound of grain fed; but 1t was OBJ
served that the cows that received
grain during the pasture season gave
sixteen per cent better returns after
the grazing period than did those that
received no grain. In other words,
there was an increase in weight in
the lot that were fed grain which re-
suited in the laying up of a consid-
cradle amount of surplus nutrients on
their body which was utilized in flu
ture productions.

Navel Ill In Young Animals.


Navel i'll. often called "joint-ill" or
'foal lameness," is a disease Of young
animals, occurring soon after birth,
and usually terminating in death
1t, is form of blood poison enter
Ing through the unhealed navel The
first symptoms of the disease noted
are swollen joints, fever, lameness,
and later, assesses and diarrhea, re-
sulting in death.
Colts and calves are the principal
victims, although all young may be-
come affected.
The treatment is principally pre-
vention. Do not turn the mare about
to foal in an old filthy boxstall, or in
. stall where the disease has occurred
Remember 1t is highly contagious.
Disinfect the barn thoroughly. In
warm weather, turn pregnant mares
or cows outdoors. Paint the navel
cord with weak solution Of tine
ture of iodine or very weak carbolic
acid--five drops of carbolic acid to
half pint of water. Keep the young
animal clean and examine the navel
cord to see ii 1t is drying up normally.

Seasonal Typhoid Danger.

Health authorities agree that early
spring, short season following the
melting of winter SHOWS, and late
summer are the danger periods rela-
tive to the contraction of typhoid fe-
yer. The causes of the increased num-
Der OF cases at the two seasons of the
year are not difficult to understand.
The melting of snow and ice, which
have become contaminated with ty-
phoid bacteria from typhoid patients
in the spring, results in the release
and distribution over wide areas of
variable millions of these active foes
of man. In the late weeks of summer,
the Typhoid Fly is present in great
numbers and is active in the work of
transmitting infected material from
vaults, the fly nursery, to food and
drink wherever opportunity Is afford
ed.
Floods at this season Of the year
are more dangerous than at any other
season of the year. Body excretions
from persons suffering with typhoid
fever are thrown upon the snow or ice
or upon the frozen ground. The bac-
terra remain inactive, but alive and
are released and scattered by the
from the frozen ground by heavy
rains. Flooded sections are the ones
which suffer this common but avoid
able distribution of fever germs
Surface contamination of wells is
the danger which should be guarded
against. 1t is not possible to safe
guard conditions, but correct surface
construction will decrease by large
per cent possibility of contamination.
Attention to the following points in
construction Of wells may prove to be
a paying investment from the stand
point of decrease in doctor bills, flu
neral expenses and loss of time dur
ing sickness:
/. A platform that is foot or more
above any possible flood-water.
2. A tight platform.
3. A liberal earth mound for the
platform to rest on.
4. A drive we'll of thirty feet or
more in depth, ending below rock

and above vaults and barnyards.

Some Factors Affecting the Keeping
Quality Of Butter.

The keeping quality of butter Is of
considerable Importance as factor in
determining the demand for that
product on the market
Some butter makers would maintain
that because their butter is placed in
the market in fresh condition there
Is no need of taking steps to improve
the keeping quality. Most butter, even
though it is sold to the consumer
fresh. is in majority of cases kept
by the consumer in place where the
temperature Is quite high. If the
butter can withstand this condition
without taking on a disagreeable fla
vor the consumer will demand the
same brand of butter the next time.
On the other hand, If the butter as
sumes strong flavor in a few days
the housewife is dissatisfied, and will
likely try another brand of butter
thereafter.
The age and sourness of the cream
previous to churning has a decided in
fluence upon the keeping quality of
butter. This is especially true when
the cream is pasteurized. An excel
lent proof OF that statement is found
In the result recently obtained in the
storage of pasteurized sweet cream
butter for the United States navy, as
compared with that made from sour
cream. After six or more months of
storage, the pasteurized sweet cream
butter was found to be practically as
good as when placed in storage, while
sour cream butter held under the
same conditions was found to have de-
Perforated in quality to much great
er extent. Similar results have been
obtained in experimental work con-
Quoted by this experiment station.
However, in case Of raw cream but

Yet we cannot sing the praises of all
the trees that have blessed us. In
fact, very few of us have a proper
appreciation of our real debt to trees
until we give the matter serious
thought Alas! how many of us, as
we go back In thought to the old home
IN the east, have mental pictures of
stately old trees, or beautiful groves
there. These we sadly miss in our
new homes in the great young state Of
Idaho. 1t Is true that our soil is fer
tile and that our climate is such that
we may well boast of our crops in
both quality and yield; but our homes,
especially in the southern part of the
state, are sadly In need of something
to make them more attractive-more
homelike. AS we think of the thou
sands of homes in Idaho without a
single tree to break the winter gale
or to protect from the burning sum-
mer sun--simply house set down in
the sagebrush-is it any wonder that
those who have grown up among the
beautiful trees and groves of the east
ern states have disconsolate feeling
In such surroundings? They are not
homelike and should by all means be
improved. 1t is with the hope that
the schools may take the lead in the
movement for more homelike homes
in Idaho, that portion Of the fund
available for tree growing in the state
has been placed at their disposal and
1t Is desired that every teacher en-
deavor to secure at least few trees
and observe Arbor day with appro-
pirate exercises, endeavoring to in
still into the minds of the children the
Importance Of the planting and care
of trees as well as the aesthetic and
economical value Of the same.
Many of the more progressive towns
IN Idaho have organized "City Beauti-
full" clubs and park commissions and
are showing lively interest in def
mite plans for identifying their cities.
Money cannot be spent more wisely
and no booster club aiming to attract
settlers, can do better than to en-
courage systematic planting of trees
In our city parks, on our streets and
about the new homes established in
all the more arid parts of the state.
Idaho has lost thousands Of pros
pective settlers simply because of the
general feeling Of desolatioh which
pervades the homeseeker after having
spent few days looking at the tree

simply because the soil is. fertile and
will produce large returns, yet he can
not think of bringing his wife and
children into such unattractive sur
roundings. It Is perfectly easy to
change these surroundings and make

purchaser will not hesitate to bring
his family and make home in this
great Land of Plenty.

possibility of marketing, through
lambs, profitably the large quantities
OF alfalfa hay grown in some portions
of the state
The lambs were fed out of doors
WIN absolutely no shelter, using straw
lor bedding and hurdles to form the
enclosure and bed grounds. They
were bought of Scott Anderson of
Boise and were driven overland from
his ranch north of the city to the Cald-
well station farm When weighed up-
on the range they averaged GIT
pounds and after pasturing on alfalfa
stubble and feeding period of 100
days averaged 1865 pounds when
shipped.
Ordinarily all expenses except feed
are charged against the manure, In
this particular experiment several
charges other than feed had to be met:
NO corrals were available and three
lambs were taken by coyotes. A large
engine had to be used for pumping
water entaling a heavy expense for
gasoline, and $50 extra labor was
charged against the lambs. Due to
warm weather and other causes, ten
mead were lost in transit. After nav
ing all the above expenses and for all
reeds the net profit was approximately
oo cents per lamb. Using the lambs
to market the hay gave it an approx-
innate value of $3.50 per ton. With
out charging the extra labor and gaso-
line the profit was 80 cents per head
or the hay brought $10.7O per ton.
The lambs were divided into two
lots with an equal number of lambs
IN each lot. One lot was fed alfalfa
hay with grain ration of three narts
barley and one part oats. and the
other lot was fed alfalfa with a ration
OF three parts wheat and one mart
oats. No losses resulted from the
wheat feeding. During a feeding no.
riod Of 100 days the wheat-fed lamhs
gained two and two-thirds pounds per
mead more than the barley lot, and
profit. NO.
These lambs were bought by the
Carstens Packing company of Taco
ma, whose buyers pronounced them in
q splendld condition and the grain
finish secured by feeding Idaho small
grains entirely satisfactory for the
market.
The experiment clearly shows that
Idaho feeder lambs can be successful
~ and profitably fed within the state
on homegrown grains. A bulletin
giving these facts in detail will be nre-
pared and ready for distribution earlv

ter, in many instances, the results
have been best where the cream was
allowed to sour before churning.
Another factor which bears an i'm
portant relationship to the keeping
quality OF the butter is the tempera-
ture at which the butter is kept. Any
kind of butter will deteriOrate to a
considerable extent If held at high
temperature. Many times the butter
maker is blamed for making poor but
ter when the fault is mainly with the
consumer for keeping 1t in place
where it will become soft and de-
velop strong flavor. Then also but
ter Is frequently kept in place where
1t will take up bad flavors from it's
surroundings. This Is especially true
where the butter is kept in an icebox
with strong smelling vegetables.
The incorporation of considerable
quantities of buttermilk in the butter
tends to lessen its keeping quality.
Over-churning is usually responsible
for high per cent Of buttermilk in
butter. The churn should be stopped
when the butter is in the form of
granules little larger than wheat
kernel.
If the buttermilk is drawn off at
that stage and this volume in the
churn is replaced with water of the
same temperature as that of the but
termilk, the butter can be successfully
washed by few revolutions of the
churn. Butter that is we'll washed in
this way does not become strong so
quickly as does butter from which the
buttermilk has not been sufficiently
removed.
While there are many other factors
which might influence the keeping
quality of butter, the above mentioned
ones are among the most important.

Feeding Grain to Cows ON Pasture.
The question is frequently asked
whether 1t is economical to feed grain
to cows during the pasture season
On this question there is consider
able difference Of opinion. Judging
by the direct results in milk produc-
ton from feeding grain to cows on
succulent and abundant pasture, there
seems to be no profit in such a pro-
cedure. While there may be some in
crease in milk yields, the increased
yields do not in all instances pay for
the grain consumed.
The pastures in the early spring are
immature and the grass contains a |
high percentage Of water and a low
percentage Of dry matter, and the high |
producing COW does not secure suffi- |
cient nutrients to furnish the needs of I
the body and maintain large pro-
duction of milk. For a COW of this
type, that is, one that produces one
to two pounds of butter fat daily, a
grain ration should supplement the
pasture, and she should be allowed
all the leguminous hays that she will
consume.
The COW that is producing an aver
