District Versus Country.

In standing by the needs of his con-
stituents against the seeming needs
Of his country, is a member intellectu-
ally dishonest? That is. is he intel
lectuany dishonest if his own convic-
tons lead him to vote for the good
of the country, while his desire to
serve his Immediate constituents, and
perhaps his desire to be reelected,
make him cast his vote for the inter
ests of the specific locality rather than
for the interests of all his countrylnen
outside of a small circumscribed dis
trict?
It can be said that more and more
congressman are coming to vote for
the entire country rather than for
their constituents. This was shown
to be true when the last tariff bill was
put through. Men from lumber dis
tricts voted to put lumber on the free
list and some men from sheep dis
tricts voted for free wool. Now 1t
might be said that these men voted
seemingly against the good OF their
immediate constituents because they
thought their so voting would be good
for the entire country

Calumet the Secret of Economy

The high cost Of living nowadays, and
the way prices are steadily climbing sky
wards. is making economy In the kitchen
even more important than it was in the
good old days of our thrifty ancestors
But how to achieve economy There's
the rub
In many lines, it depends almost en-
tirely on the housewives knowledge of
foods and on her watchfulness-bu for
tunately. in one line, baking, economy
can be made almost automatic by the use
OF the famous Calumet Baking Powder.
Economy in baking, as every good cook
knows, depends not so much on economy
In buTfng the materials Us on the success
OF her bakiuSS. Failures mean waste
bigger losses by far than the savings she
makes in buying. And the fact that Ca!u-
met absolutely prevents failures and
MAKES every baking successful has made
II the favorite Of every cook that seeks
to be economical In other words Calu-
met is the secret of economy in baking.
It is the purest, too-attested by hun
dreds of leading physicians-and as FOR
its general quality. it is enough TO say
that Calumet has received the highest
awards a two Worlds Pure Food EXPOSE
tions-one in Chicago, H., and the other
in Paris France in March, 1912. Adv.

STORE MANURE FOR GARDENS
Fertilizer Should Be Kept in Large
Box With Lid Screened That Flies
Cannot Possibly Enter.

4 common practice is to manure
the garden every year late in the fall
or before planting in the spring, no

practice, however, is not the best.
The manure for the garden should

so screened that flies cannot enter it..

are allowed TO remain near the house

ance.
A good plan is to use very close
wire screen nailed to a frame with
hinges for the top. The manure
should be spaded often on the top so
I>that the water from the clouds or
the sprinkling pot may penetrate to
every part Of ii.
If kept in box a spout should be
placed in one corner at the bottom,
SO that the water may drain into a
sunken barrel.
This will supply liquid manure,
which can be used at all seasons when
vegetables and flowers are growing.

= determined effort is being made in
England to make the hen work over

nearly a year kept his poultry house

VALUE OF PASTURING
Result OF Experiments With For
age Crops for Swine.
Alfalfa Proved to Be Most Satisfac-
tory at the Iowa Station, Furnish
ing Pasture Most Constantly of
All Crops Tried.

tBF ". c. PALMER. North Dakota Ag-
ricultlIsal College,
The profits il hog raising come
largely through pasturing. The Iowa
experiment station in bulletin No, 1876
reports the result of experiments with
forage crops for swine It was found
t41at the profits from grazing an acre
CT alfalfa in 1911 was. with corn at 30
cents and hogs selling at five cents,
$3.50; hogs. at six cents. 5000 The
cost per 100 pounds of pork was but
s2-SS- In 1903, she profit was $23.62
with hogs at fire cents, and S46.S9
when hogs sold dt six cents.
In 1909. clover when grazed with
hogs returned a profit OF 1924. hogs
selling at FIVE cents, and $5z.07, at six
cents. In 1910, the clover pasture re-
turned $2S.S2, and $51,20 with hogs
at five and six cents
Ia 1909, rape returned s27-5o and
respectively; in 1910, S37.51 and S6S.64.
In 1910. sweet clover returned s42.0I
and s74.50 with hogs at five and six
cents; in 1911, $3.50 and $3.50. Oats
pasture returned 1888 and S32-53,
with hogs at five and six cents respect
lively In 1909, oats. Canada field
peas and rape returned S22-S3 and
S43.S6, with hogs at five and six cents.
IN 1911, three different lots returned
$53.45, $685. and $64.e3 each with
hogs at five and six cents. In 1909.
the returns from blue grass were
$l5.23 per acre, with hogs at five cents,
and s51.85 at six, cents.
IN all the trials corn was fed and
charged at 30 cents a bushef. Land
rent was charged at six dollars per
ac7'e. All costs of producing the crop
were figured in. Some meat meal was
fed. This was charged at two and
one-half cents a pound. Alfalfa proved
TO be the most satisfactory. IL fur
nished pasture the most constantly OF
the crops tried. Sweet clover was
satisfactory the first year, but grew
too rank the second year.
The results CT these experiments
should mean good deal TO North
Dakota. The season is a little short
er, but this is in a measure Offset with
lower land rents. 1t is necessary to
keep in mind that some grain needs
20 be fed the hogs in addition to the
forage. When the pasture is alfalfa
corn is good grain to use

THREE RULES FOR FEEDING
Make a Mixture of Grains and Other
Concentrates and Give in Proper
ton to Daily Milk Yield.

3 1t is not practical to spend the time
necessary under ordinary conditions TO
figure out an extra ration for each in
dividual COW. it is practicable, how
ever, to make q mixture Of grains and
other concentrates and to feed each
COW from this grain mixture in pro-
portion to her daily milk yield, and
then to give her all the roughage she
will eat up clean, and be reasonably
sure that she has had all the food she
needs to produce milk to the limit Of
her ability under ordinary conditions
The following rules of feeding are sug-
gested by the Pennsylvania station:
1. Feed grain in proportion to milk
yield. that is, give her, for example,
one pound OF grain mixture a day for
each three or four pounds of milk pro
duced in one day.
2. Feed all the roughage that the
cow viii eat up clean, up to the point
where she gains too much weight
8. Whenever she becomes too fat,
