TO CLEAN WITH GASOLINE
Suggestions That VIII Simplify
Process of Renovating Solled
Garments.

First run threads of some contrast
ing color around all spots on the gar
ment to be cleaned-this in order to
give the spots special attention. Pour
boiling water into tub, and in this
set a small tub or dishpan, the size
depending upon the size of the article
you intend to clean. Pour gasoline in
to the smaller vessel and cover the
whole with heavy cloth for about a
minute, in order to give the gasoline
a chance to heat. Then put in your
goods to be cleaned and work it up
and down. giving special attention to
where the threads appear, as you will
not be able to see the spots. When
clean, wiring and shake where there is
plenty of air, to get all the gasoline
possible out before hanging it on the
line to air Hang coats and waists
on a coat-hanger and pin skirts on the
line along the belt so as to keep their
shape.

HOW TO BLANCH SWEETBREAC
Soak in Cold Water for Two Hours,
Then Let Them Come to
Boil

AS soon as the sweetbreads come
from the market place them in a bowl
of cold water and let them soak for
at least two hours, and longer if they
seem to need it. Change the water
three times, or until it remains quite
clear. Allow little salt in each wa
ter. Drain them, place them in a
porcelain lined saucepan, cover with
cold water and place over the fire and
let come to boil, adding a pinch OF
salt. Thi- blanches them. Then drain
them and cover with cold water to
freshen. When cold, drain them thor
oughly, press in shape with the hands
and fold in clean cloth and set in a
clean place until ready to use them. If
you wish to slice them place weight
on them to fiatten them.

LIVE STOCK7
t@R0FES- So

Don't overwork the mare; 1t won't
pay.
1t is as easy to teach a colt good
manners as faulty ones.
II grass is short, be sure to feed q
succulent ration of some kind.
The manners of the horse usually
reveal the temper of his owner.
A good Shropshire flock should av-
erage nine to ten pounds of wool.
Unless man has a great love for
q horse he should not handle colts.
The cause of unthrifty pigs can
often be traced to a filthy swill bar
rel.
No animal that gets only feed
enough to support life can make a
gain or profit.
Silage is highly relished by young
stock and by idle cows, as well as
those in milk.
A five cent straw hat filled with
leaves dipped In water may save a
5000 brood mare.
Silage is well adapted for fattening
lambs and for a part ration for win
tering breeding sheep.
Don't leave the sheep in dry, short
pasture. Give them a chance in a
fresh pasture, or give a good grain ra-
ton.
Most horsemen have had unravor-
able results from feeding silage to
horses. A few report it satisfactory
feed
Silage is not of much vaiue to hogs,
except when given in small feeds for
variety and an appetizer. Hogs
show less liking for silage than any
nthar class of farm animals.

Pumpkins for Hogs and Cows.

1t is surprising that more pumpkins
are not fed to pigs and COWS which
awe access to alfalfa pasture in the
fall. For brood sows and shoats, and
oven for fattening hogs a ration of
pumpkins will give good results. 1t
has been found that raw pumpkins
Will give as good results as though
they were cooked. If cooked and
some grain sprinkled over them hogs
will eat more of them, which is the
ouly advantage. In feeding COWS the
seeds should be removed If fed In
large quantities, for the seeds, If fed
In considerable quantity, will inter-
fere with the digestion and cause a
decrease in the milk flow.

The production of high grade dairy
products without a plentiful supply of
ice Is next to impossible.
An enterprising farmer living near
a town of 5000 or more, can sell

Diarrhoea In Little PIos.

The cause of this trouble is usually
An abrupt change of feed, either Of

elusive diet of alfalfa is responsible

the trouble is dirty, unsanitary sur

DAIRYING DURING FLY TIME
Two Most Needed Things Are sprayer
and RepeIIent-Cool Blanket
10 Also Beneficial.

A good sprayer and reliable fly re-
pellent will pay for themselves about
twenty times during the fly season, to
say nothing of the comfort afforded
the animals and the satisfaction you
will derive from milking quiet cow.
II you don't feel like investing in a
spraying outfit, have your wife make
you long, cool blanket out of cheese
cloth or some other light material and
spread 1t over the COW while milking.
This, however, is beneficial at milk
Ing time only. The one thing that will
prevent the flies from sucking the life
blood and consequently the milk from
the best Of your herd, is to spray, and
spray thoroughly while you are at it.
See that the cows have some sort
Of good shade. They simply cannot
stand out in the scorching heat all day
and do as well as they would If pro-
tected from the midday sun.
II natural shade is not available, 1t
will take you but an hour or so to set
some tall posts and make a satisfac-
tory shade out of small brush, old
straw or boards. The cows must have
shade.
Too many farmers let their COWS
rustic water from foul sloughs or from
tank filled with water warm enough
to wash dishes In.
This Is not merely question Of
comfort and satisfaction to the cows.
Neither is it necessary simply to add
to your dairy products.
Sanitation demands that the princi
pal element entering into the compo-
sition of milk be strictly pure-free
from every vestige of disease or filth.

let her get accustomed to her new

lence and distribution of grade stall
lions in the state.
Minnesota has a law framed along
the lines Of the Wisconsin measure.
Pennsylvania and Utah have adopt
ed similar laws and other states have
restrictive measures under considera-
ton.
The effect Of these laws is to make
the owner of each non-registered stall
lion declare his horse grade" On
handbills that are posters SO that no
one may be deceived as to his pedi-
gree.
The situation abroad is very much
better than in this country. In fact,
practically no scrub, grade or non
registered stations are used for pub
lis service.
In the investigations of this matter
carried on by DR.. A. S. Alexander of
Wisconsin it was found that of all
the stations in the state, 60 per cent.
were grade stations and only 40 per
cent. pure bred.
Some of the specimen horses used
for public service are remarkable ex-
