WINTER CARE FOR THE CALF

Tho calf which ID to be raised on
skimmilk should DO taught to eat
grain early. When they have access

weeks Of age. The grain should be
placed In a box where they can easily
get to 1t and they can be encouraged
at nrst by placing a little in their
mouth after they have consumed their
milk. Grain can best be fed dry after
the milk IL fed. In no case should 1t
be fed in the milk as in that case it
will be gulped down without chewing,
which Is bad for the digestion. No
more grain should be given than will
be eaten up twice each day, which
will not be more than one-half pound
daily for the first two months. After
this they may have more, but 1t will
not be necessary to feed more than
one pound per day up to six months

ONE TREATMENT FOR HEAVES
Disease Is Incurable, but May Be
:aii;atst by Feeding Easily Di-
gested Nutritive Food.

(By DIR. J. Fl. STANDISH, Nova Scotia
Department of Agriculture.)
Repeated gorging of the stomach
with food or water, and often both,
is the cause of heaves. The symp-
toms are deep breathing, evidenced
by the expanding nostrils and double
lifting of the tanks, both of which
are increased if the animal is forced
up grade at a fast trot or gallop
when the stomach is distended with
food or water; generally, also, hack
ing cough, mostly in the morning.
The disease is incurable, but may
be palliated by feeding easily digested
nutritive food in small quantities. Give
such food as early cut, we'll cured
clean timothy hay, preferably damp
ened with weak lime water, oats,
wheat bran, flax seed ground, and in
winter roots, carrots, turnips, mangels
or sugar beets; the oats to be boiled
twice a week. Give four drains of
ginger and two drains of baking soda
In the food at night, or oil OF tar in
dessert spoonful doses. In some
cases. better results are secured by
alternating these daily or weekly, and
in some cases are benefited by four to
ten grain doses of white arsenic once
day. But care in feeding and water
ing is necessary in any treatment. Dat
straw, if early cut and we'll cured, is
often preferable to hay Ia either
case, shake the hay or straw to re-
move all dust.

The proposal to restrict deer hunt
ers TO the killing OF bucks suggests the
question, How can greenhorns, who
often shoot at men, mistaking them
for deer, manage to distinguish be-
tween buck and doe?" A North
Wisconsin settler remarks that while
1t Is an accident when a man is killed
for deer, and that is the end of it.,
there would be trouble when doe
was mistaken for buck and shot by
q "redcap." The "redcap" would have
to pay fine il the game wardens got
him-and tha. might keep him out of
the woods. says the Milwaukee Wis
consin. The settlers are glad when
the deer hunters are out of the woods,

The report Of Public Printer Dom
nelly discloses the interesting fact
that the sales OF postal cards last
year fell on more than b10.642, 900.
compared with the previous year. The
government printing Office supplied
1.280,896,840 postal cards in 1911 to
meet public demands, whereas only
770,253.399 were ordered for this year.
The explanation Is found in the vast
increase in the use OF the souvenir
post card, but the revenue OF the gov
eminent has really been increased by
this discrimination, as each souvenir
card requires one-cent stamp. The
increase in revenue is derived by the
enlarged sale of one cent stamps, the
printing Of which is less expensive
than the postal card.

FLOWING IS HARD ON HORSES
Few Teams That Ar Not Doing Ten
70 Thirty Per Cent of Unnscee-
cary Work in Fields.


Flowing IL at best the hardest work
our farm horses have to perform. Few
plow teams are not doing 10 to 80 per
cent Of unnecessary work. The writ
er has seen plows which he believed
were pulling so per cent harder than
they should.
We are told that about 80 per cent
of the draft OF = pillow IL due to the
cutting of the furrow slice. The con-
dition Of the cutting edge must then
be Of first importance. Expert plow-
men recognize this and In competi-
tons lile their shares to knife edges.
One authority claims that an old
share resharpened has shown SO par
cent heavier draft than = new share.
Again. engine plows of the same make
and size have under the same condi-
tons showed 45 per cent difference in
draft in favor of the new freshly fled
shares over resharpened shares in or.
binary condition. It will certainly pay
to keep the pillow shares sharp and In
proper form.
The set and adjustment of a pillow
is almost a. much to do with the
draft az condition Of the share. A
riding pillow with rear furrow wheel
should pull little or no harder than =
walking pillow or plows OF the same
widths. Yet how many do it? About
30 per cent of the draft Of q walking
pillow Is due to the friction Of the pillow
on the bottom and side of the fur
row. In the riding pillow this friction
is eliminated by carrying the weight
and down and side pressure of pillow
bottom on wheels. To accomplish this
the rear furrow wheel is set out about
an inch and quarter so that land.
side cannot touch the side furrow.
The wheel Ia also set down so the
heel of Landslide Is raised one half to
three-fourths inches of bottom of fur
row. When so set the pillow bottom
will sink into the ground and hang
there. When pillow bottoms float" in
the frame none of the bottom and
side pressure Is removed and the draft
of the bottoms is the same as that OF
the walking plows to- which must be
added that due to weight OF pillow
frame and driver.
