and white cattle Everywhere, as far
as che eye could reach, the landscape
was dotted with fine cows. A more
beautiful dairy scene could scarcely be
imagined. History tells us that for
two thousand years Holland has been
famed for its cattle. Holstein- Freis-
ians are the cows Of that section, end
during the past forty years they have
spread so rapidly in America that at
present this breed Is found in almost
every state in the Union.
Successful dairying depends largely
upon efficient cows, keeping them
comfortable at all times by properly
supplying their wants, and treating
them kindly. In this particular the
Dutch cannot be excelled. Holland Is
often called the cows paradise, and
it we'll deserves the name.
The history Of the rise Of dairying
in Denmark is one Of the most inter-
esting and instructive chapters in agri-
culture. To show the marvellous re-
cent development in Danish dairyins
it is only necessary to state that the

GIVE CHICKENS SOUR MILK.

Sour milk is utilized in one Of the
best possible ways by feeding it to
chickens. Those who think that they
get greater returns by feeding it to
hogs should remember that the flesh
of chickens bring at least twice IS
much on the market as that Of hogs.
Milk and corn are both liked bv
chickens, and a proper mixture Of the
two makes one Of the best and most
alpetizing rations for the season when
the days are warm and the nights
cool. For the best results the corn
should be cracked and soaked several
hours in either sweet or sour skinned
milk or in buttermilk. The corn NAV
be put in pals in the morning and
the milk poured on until tn TOP of
the corn Is submerged two or three
inches. When this has been absorbed
more should be added at intervals
during the day and the mixture will
be excellent for feeding by night
A liberal supply Of this ration will
keep the chickens growing rapidly and
insure their being constantly plump
and in excellent condition for the mar
ket. Try 1t once and the fowls will
tell you whether they like it, Try It
two weeks or a month and they will
show you whether it is 2 good and
economical feed.-A. G. Smith.

DOCKING THE LAMBS

With the increasing number of
lambs marketed, the competition
among sellers increases, and since
locked lambs are preferred and find
more ready sale than unlocked ones,
the advisability Of docking Is evident
from the market standpoint. From
the breeders point Of view, docking
decreases the trouble with maggots
which cause trouble If the lambs have
had scours. and greatly increases the
general appearance and uniformity of
the flock
In the last few years a method of
docking has come into practice which
has given excellent satisfaction. It is
docking with hot iron pinchers. These
p1nchers may be purchased at various
supply houses at $1.25 per pair. This
method of docking requires more time
for the operation. but there is seldom
any further trouble. Two men are
required to do the work-one to hold
the lamb and another to use the hot
pinchers.
In order to prevent burning the
lamb, 1t is advisa BILE to slip the lambs
tall through a hole in an incn board.
This board should be held as CLOSELY
as possible to the body Of the lamb
The tail should then be taken off close
to the board. The most convenient
way to heat the iron pinchers is with
a small portable forge or gasoline

MAKING UP THE DUCKS BREED.
ING PEN.

In making up the breeding pen care
should be taken that the females are
matured and that the drake, though
fully grown, Is a little on the small
size for his breed.
1t is the ducks which inpart size
to the progeny and the male bird the
shape and style, so that large-framed
ducks should be mated with medium
sized brakes.
I There Is good first cross-Pekin-
Aylesbury. which produces large
healthy ducklings but. which do not
mature so rapidly as the pure Ayes
bury stock, still, considering that the
Aylesbury ducks must have fairly
sheltered position if they are to do as
we'll as early breeders, the above cross
might be chosen with advantage when
breeding is to be carried on in bleak
and unsheltered situations
1t is good plan to run an Ayles-
bury drake with Indian Runners for
the production of passable table birds
and then to remove the drake and re.
place him with one Of their own breed
for the production of pure breeds for
egg production.
The proper sheltering of breeding
ducks Is Of the greatest Importance as
the birds cannot render a good ac-
count Of themselves unless housed in
structures that are damp-proof, well
ventilated, kept clean and we'll bedded
with d-y litter.

Stock Raising
in the South

The improvement in live stock rails
ing in the south during the past Re
years has been remarkable. With the
favorable seasons. short anG mild win
ters, this section chould produce live
stock for much less than it can be
raised in the colder sections of the
country.
The south has the climate, the
supply of pure water the land and the
grasses and forage crops and the
cheap foods to make it one Of the
great stock raising and dairying re-
gions of the country.
Within recent years. planters who
have been content in the rast to grow
only cotton and corn. buying their
supplies and even the mules which
worked their plantations, have begun
to invest in good breeds Of cattle and
hogs. and to take up the question of
producing their own mules. The pro-
gress already made is very marked
and there has been ample demonstra-
ton that this section can compete
with any part of the country as a
producer Of live stock.
The southern climate is such that
only a small investment in building is
necessary for cattle. All that is usu-
ally required Is to give. them a good,
dry place to sleep. The eradication
Of the fever tick Is progressing very
rapidly In the south, and every year
large areas are being freed from the
tick When the tick is exterminated
in any locality, renewed interest be-
gins at once IT. the beef cattle bust
ness. Beef cattle should be more gen.
orally introduced because of the good
they do in building up and maintaining
the soil. At the present time the
south is producing but small pro-
portion of the meat which her people
consume; there Is a demand for 1t
and the demand should be met It
home The time is fast coming when
this will be done. There is no better
way to put the whole farm to work
than by Introducing good breeds OF
beef cattle into the system Of farming.

DAIRYING IN EUROPEAN COUNTRIES

ing for lifetime. In no country does
everything give place to dairying as il
does In Denmark and Holland, and in
no country in the world are the farm
ers so prosperous and selfrespecting.
There IS no dairy country, though
the land may be worth $1,000 an
acre, that has the natural advantages
Tor the production of dairy products
enjoyed by the United States. None of
the Intensive dairy countries Of Europe
can produce and preserve in good
condition for winter feeding Of dairy
COWS the amount of digestible nu-
trients per acre that can be secured
IN our own country with corn silage
and alfalfa hay.
In many sections of Europe where
da1ry1ng Is carried on extensively, the
greater part of the land is owned by
men who care quite as much for
beauty as for profit, in consequence of
which great attention is paid to the
artistic appearance Of the farms, and
much pride is taken in keeping every
thing neat and orderly. No fence
corners or hedge rows are left to
grow up with weeds, no machinery ia
allowed to stand in the fields. There
Is network of winding macadamized
roads lined on both sides with hedges
and trees. and leading through the
felds In every direction are foot-paths
The heather-covered hills, vine-clad
cottages, and fine cattle dotting the
meadows, make a beautiful picture
one not soon forgotten.
In the southern part of Scotland,
da1rying is almost the sole occupation
or the farmers, The cows kept are
practically all high-grade or pure bred
Ayrshlres, and as a class are efficient
and economic producers. He1fer
calves from the best cows are always
raised, not sold. A good Registered
Ayrshire COW brings from s125 to
$1oo' and a good grade COW $50 to
Sloo: COWS that are good mixers
are Kept as long as they are healthy.
IN many herds in Scotland are cows
twenty years old, and still good pro-
ducers, but in herds which are fed
heavily on grain they do not last as
long, and the oldest COW is not mora
than twelve years Old For the
American dairyman. the striking fea-
lures OF Scotch dairying are the uni
1ormly good cows kept, the excellent
care given them, and the attention
paid to feeding them economically on
a small amount of grain, never vast
Ing concentrates on cows that are not
producing heavily. When we consider
the low efficiency Of the average COWS

b1l1ties yet unattained by the dairymen

receipts from cows at the present time
are more than seventeen times what
they were thirty years ago. From the
million dairy cows of Denmark is ex-
ported 200.000,000 pounds of butter a
year, worth $44,000O00.
The Danes do not have as good a.
climate or soil as is enjoyed in many
parts Of our own country. They have
small patches Of different crops and
cannot take advantage Of four-horsa

INDIANS TRY DRY-FARMING.

Many of the Indians Of Oklahoma
have much money invested in farm
lands. In fact, they are richer per
capita than any other class Of people
in the world. In addition to immense
areas of land they own office build
ings, banks, much live stock, mines
and oil and gas wells. They also have
millions of dollars on deposit with the
treasurer of the United States on
which the government pays interest
to the several tribes.
Many of these Indians also have
large revenues in cash from oil and
gas leases. and the most Of them are
making more or less money from their
farming operations as we'll. They e
taking up with great eagerness the
newer methods of farming as taught
by the International Dry-Farming con-
gress.

The Cottony Maple Scale

The cottony maple scale Is an in
sect that for the past ten years has
been serious enemy to thousands OF
beautiful and valuable trees. The
food plants of the scale are numerous,
the most important being the soft
maple, linden, box elder, elm, oak,
willow, poplar, beech. hawthorn, syca-
more, locust. blackberry, Usage orange,
mulberry, grape, poison ivy, Virginia
creeper, rose. gooseberry, currant,
peach, plum, pear and apple.
In dealing with the insect 1t is
necessary to consider in each case the
advisa bility Of artificial means Of con-
natural enemies Of this pest have done
very efficient work, making in many
cases applications Of remedies inadvis-
able. The Illinois Experimental Sta
ton states that the scale appears in
great numbers at intervals Of eight or
ten years.
The infested trees. advises the De-
partment, can be treated during the
dormant season with a strong solution
of kerosene emulsion without any in
jury to the trees. This emulsion used
at rs per cent or more In strength, or
whale-oil soap at the rate Of one
pound to a gallon Of water, has been
reported to be very effective in killing
the scales hit by the spray.
In spraying during the period when
the trees are in foliage a weaker solu-
ton must necessarily be used. 1t Is
not safe to use kerosene emulsion
stronger than a 10 to IL per cent oil.
and even at this strength there might
be a slight injury to the foliage. 1t
has been demonstrated that a single
Of a 10 per cent kerosene
emulsion applied at the proper time
in summer will destroy about two
thirds Of the recently Matched insects
and two applications, one applied at
the middle and the other at the end
Of the Matching period will destroy
four-fifth Of them.

Canning Girls Club
To Visit Washington

Fifteen girls. one from each Of if
teen southern states. are soon to be
given trip to Washington as a re-
ward for their splendid work in con-
nection with the girls canning clubs
which are conducted under the aus
pieces Of the U. S. Department Of Agri-
culture. These fifteen girls are the
state winners in the various contests
that have been carried on and are the
pick Of about $4,000 girls who are en-
rolled in the canning clubs.
The canning club work was begun
three or four years ago by the bureau
of plant industry in cooperation with
various private agencies. Prizes have
been given before. but never have the
winners been sent in a body to Wash
ington. although the state winners In
the boys corn clubs have been re-
warded in this manner. The depart
ment of agriculture considers that the
time is now ripe for the prize girls to
have a similar trip and the result Is
that plans are in progress for the en-
tertainment Of the fortunate young
women that the states select.
The selection of the winner is made
differently in different states. In

viduals.

does not supply the funds for the trips
which the young women will make. 1t

Of the canning clubs shall be sum-
moned to Washington for an official
conference at the same time that the
girls are to visit the capital. They
will, therefore. be called upon to
chaperon the girls from their respec-
tive states and will be in charge of
them during their visit. The eleventh
of December is the date on which this
conference is now expected to be
called.

GETTING THE HENS TO LAY IN WINTER

Iyour hens always laying the entire
year,"
! I told her I kept chem In laying
order.
But mine stop laying early In the
| fall and seldom begin again before
the first Of January"
I knew this woman had large
| fock-all varieties. with the excep-
ton of the Leghorn, and she never
fed any grain except In the ,cold
weather, so I told her to try shutting
the hens up until about four o'clock
in the afternoon each day and keep
them fed with good breakfast Of
either corn or wheat screenings,
plenty Of fresh water. oyster shells
and milk. If she had it.
told her when she let them out to
feed them oats or cooked vegetables
Of some sort and. above all things, to
keep the hen house clean. telling me
in a weeks time the result.
In four days she told me she was
getting three dozen eggs a day from
80 hens. but at the end Of the week
she told me she was getting five dozen
a day and had sold Is dozen at IA
cents. making $3.50.
Her feed cost her 81 worth Of corn.
used for breakfast, and she had
cooked small potatoes and other gar
den truck for the four o'clock lunch.
Her success depended upon the fact
that she gave the fowls enough to eat
to keep up their strength and energy
without overlooking, at the same time
allowing them plenty Of exercise.
while before they were half starved
and had not the vitality to lay eggs.
Sometimes the troubles lies in an
other direction, when there IS too
much grain around and the hens If
allowed to run at large get too fat.
Som etimes. too, the hog pen is too
handy and the hens. lowering about.
keep filled with corn and will not lay.
It is far more profitable to shut
them up, even in a coop, than to al
low this. T have known good layers
to be completely spoiled in this way.
Every poultry raiser, according to
my experience. should keep rat ter |
rier dog. They are forever alert and
after the rats. mice. mink, skunks and
any other little intruders that are
likely to give trouble.
A cat is all right for the rats but
he cannot always be relied upon and
besides many cats get in the habit OF
killing chickens and sucking eggs.
The terrier will always be ION the
job at night. and this is another very :
good thing. as the poultry house can be
kept open all night in hot weather to
admit the cool air and so prevent
the night sweats that are almost sure
TO lead to roup later on.
Mites are not so troublesome. either,

BOTS HARMFUL TO THE HORSE

Contrary to the prevailing opinion
among farmers, the bot which infests
the stomach of the horse Is often
harmful to both young and old ami
mails, and may be especially disastrous
to colts. The bot is the larval stage
Of the horse botfly. The botfly repro
duces by depositing light yellows oval
eggs, which are attached by the adult
female to the hair Of the legs. breast,
and neck. The eggs hatch; then the
horse ticks itself and some. Of the
small larvae are taken through the
mouth into the stomach, where they
attach themselves firmly to the lining.
BY their parasitic tendencies a large
number Of bots covering the lining of
the stomach damage the interior Of
that organ, prevent digestive action,
and in some cases cause the horse to
remain in such a poor condition that
death may ensue. 1t is probable that
many cases of poor condition in horses
thought 20 be due to worms are really
due to heavy infestation with bots.
A very effective treatment which
will remove bots within "a to 4S hours
is as follows: The day preceding the
treatment small amount Of hay and
a moderate amount Of oats is given in
the morning; in the evening food is
withheld and a purgative given-Bar-
bados aloes, 1 ounce; o. raw linseed
oil. pint. The day Of the treatment,
at o'clock in the morning, give 8
drains Of carbon bisulphid in a gelatin
capsule; at 7 o'clock repeat the dose
In the same manner; and at o'clock
give the third and last dose, making
In all drains Of carbon bisulphid in
three gelatin capsules.~
The above treatment is for the adult
horse. For a yearling colt half the
quantity of carbon bisulphid used for
a mature horse will give the desired
results
If properly administered, the gela-
tin capsule reaches the stomach in
tact, but soon dissolves, and the carbon
bisulphid rapidly evaporates. suffo-

THE MEAT SITUATION.

The high cost of meat is a serious
reality, and it is now obvious that the
rise in prices in recent years is the
natural result of an actual shortage in
production. This condition is reflected
in the per capita consumption Of meat
in the United States, which Is esti-
mated to have fallen off 10 pounds in
years. or from 1852 pounds in 1909
to 1852 pounds in the fiscal year 1913.
(These figures are exclusive Of lard.)
It Is evident that the country is facing
an era Of short production Of meat,
and that some constructive means
must be adopted If the American appe-
tite for this class of food Is to be sup
piled.
