The death of Mrs. Woodrow Wilson
is source of deep regret to the peo-
pie of the United States. For several
years she has been known to us as a
nation and her attributes of modesty,
and other womanly virtues
has endeared her to us all. She never
ceased on account of her high position
to be one of the people and her work
was felt through all circles. The ma
ton will miss her, but her absence
will be keenly felt in White House
circles and by the President and fami-
ly.

WHAT THE BABCoCK TEST DOES
FOR US
BY f. X. PARKINSON

Although this invaluable machine has
been on the market for twenty years
the majority OF farmers have never used
it. Yet this test is the only way by
which we can determine the value of our
cows. 1t seems almost incredible that
anyone having a number of cows should
prefer TO carry along Improbable ones
rather than take the trouble to test the
milk How many of us have been cheat
ed most outrageously in buying cows
Yet we have only ourselves to blame,
for had we taken the trouble to test the
milk before purchasing, we could have
saved ourselves enough 70 buy a tester
twice over. IL Is better to have one 800
pound COW than three l00-pound cows,
but the practice OF keeping improbable
cows is so universal that it is almost
impossible to persuade farmers that they
are losing hundreds of dollars every year
by not ayailing themselves of our mod
ern dairy appliances
One man who kept a herd of rather
poor looking cows, on being asked if he
used the Babcock test, replied that he
thought he ought to know good COW
when he saw one, as he had been in the
business for thirty-seyen years, and he
wasn't going to waste his money on such
things!
Detecting Robber Cows.
As a matter of fact, his dairy paid
him little or no profit. Now, supposng
that same man should buy a tester and
find that six of his cows were giving
very poor milk, five medium quality,
and four testing over five per cent. of
tat. He would exchange the six poor
lows for three good ones, feed the medi !
nm ones more literally, and so raise his !
whole herd to high standard, and the |
iaving in the feed of three cows in |
rear would more than pay for his tester
md trouble. Again, this same dairy |
nan goes to the creamery with his milk |

How to Feed.
The developing food" must be fed in
deep litter, the birds being required TO
hustle for it until the time arrives to
begin the two weeks finishing process;
in addition to the grain mixture and be-
ginning with the same week place good
fattening mash before the chicks in a
dry state, using feed hopper to save
the waste. Grit, meat scrap, and char.
coal should always be before them, as
well as green food and fresE water.
At eight weeks old the youngsters
should weigh from three-quarters to one
pound apiece, and owing to the active
lives they have been brought up to lead,
they should be in fine health with large
frames capable of making the best use of
strong food and well able to stand two
weeks or more of quiet life" All litter
should now be removed from the pen and
runway, for the less exercising broilers
do within reasonable limits, the faster
they will take on flesh and the more
tender and juicy they win be. The food
will consist Of fattening mash fed in
batter form. mixed with buttermilk or
sour milk, and to it should |
be added five per cent. of meat scraps, a |
pinch of salt, and sometimes a little /
sugar. feed this in trough or on a
clean board, and be careful never to
overfeed, giving only what the chicks
will clean up in ten or fifteen minutes.
During the last two weeks the broiers
should gain rapidly, and chickens going
INTO the fattening pen at pound and
! half should easily reach two pounds
BY the end of fifteen days.
