METHOD OF CLEANING

Brushed and CIeaned-Drop-

Lime wash made from stone lime Is
the best purifier. Make the wash as
follows: Stone lump lime. ten
pounds; boiling water. two gallons,
and carbolic acid, one ounce. Put
lime in bucket, pour on the boiling
water, cover with cloth and allow II
to stand for one hour The mixture
must be well stirred to prevent
scorching.
IL there is not enough water not all
the lime will be slaked well. On the
other hand, too much water retards
the shaking by lowering the heat. Add
enough boiling water to make the
wash just thick enough to spread
well. Mix one ounce of carbolic acid
In each bucket of wash. Carbollc
acid is poisonous and must be handled
with care If the roosting poles and
nest boxes are movable take them out
of the house Brush down the walls,
clean the floor; then apply the wash,
which should be put on hot. Take
time to get the wash into the cracks.
The roosts and nest boxes should
be brushed over with coal oil and
then given a thick coat OF the hot
wash. The floor should be we'll coat

work is well done the lice will be

a bright day for this work.
Clean up the droppiugs every morn

rich sifted earth, spread one or two
handfuls of plaster over each layer

Keep the barrels of manure under

Successive drouths in the dairy
section of the Northwest have served
IN limited way to show the special
value of alfalfa. There are several
reasons why this fodder ought to be
generally extensively used by North
ern farmers.
Considered from any standpoint it
is profitable hay crop. 1t can be de-
pended upon to net the producer fully
90 per cent. more profit than either
timothy and red closer, whether dis
posed of in the market or fed out to
live stock on the place
As there is cutting of alfalfa about
the first of June in Northern states
thu crcp is o. most Importance in
keeping up milk contracts.
In the dry season the pastures give
out or at least run down seriously
during July while in August they may
be practically bare.
The early cuttings of alfalfa is rea.
sonably sure TO be a heavy crop.
Usually it is the best of the season.
The yield may be depended upon to
exceed that of any other fodder on an
equal acreage.
Then it is three weeks or a month
earlier than timothy or red clover. 1t
comes in the right time to augment

100000 for State Treasury.

From financial famine to an over

It is necessary to either increase the
amount of .he bonds or increase the
hummer of repositories.
Wisconsin should change its sys
tenn of tax collection" said Governor
McGovern, so that they might be paid
at least twice year. if not quarterly.
AS it is, the revenues all come in at
one time and the banks are over
crowded, gorged with money that they
have no use for. Then the state be-
gins to draw and finally, before the
end of the year, there are no deposits
and the banks are distressed"
Governor McGovern suggested that

of the taxpayers it would BE better for
them and better for the banks.

the pastures or the silo II summer
feeding is necessary.
If II can be spared from the farm
and is sent to market a good cash re-
turn is obtained and il is well to note
that 1t is one of the first large items
of the crop season.
1t comes in considerably ahead OF
grain and the revenue may do away
with the necessity of borrowing money
for carrying on the heavy operations
of the farming season.
Usually the dairy farmer will prefer
to have the alfalfa crop consumed on
the place because it greatly increases
the flow of milk. The cash return is
thus likely to be larger than for mar.
keting the hay and the midsummer
and fall cuttings are equally profitable
for winter feeding.
The crop will average three cuttings
each season in this latitude, although
it is commonly harvested Ave times in
Kansas, Oregon, Washington, and a
few other states.
In view of the difficulties which
Northern farmers have experienced in
keeping up their milk supply during
the summer months It is worth while
to consider the special value Of alfalfa
as a dairy fodder.
