adopted. A smaller number than are
required will mean a considerable loss
in operating efficiency and likely an
increased cost of production. At the
same time, it is important to bear in
mind that the farm management
should very often be changed so as
to admit, first a better form of crop
ping, by which labor may be distrib-
uted throughout the year, avoiding as
far as possible forms of cropping
which require large amount of la
Dor in few days or weeks; second,
a rotation of crops which may in
crease the actual labor required on
the farm, but at the same time dis
tribute it more evenly.
In numerous Instances economics
can be effected by decreasing the num-
Der of horses kept. This again de-
ponds upon farm conditions in the To-
cality. If decreases in number are not
feasible, and certain stock is neces-
sarily kept in idleness through much
of the year, brood mares should be
used, thus carrying animals that are
productive in two ways, from their
labor and their foals.

KISSING In Public.

London is always alive with alien
customs. While American states are
passing laws against kissing in pub
lie there was an encounter the other
day in Regent street quite proper and
continentaD which startled me for a
moment. A young man met three
young women-brother and sisters /
should say at hurried glance. The
young man took off his hat and plant
ed kiss on both cheeks of each girl,
six kisses blocking the pavement traf-
fic of Regent street, and wondered
what would happen if an English pub
lie school boys sister should attempt to
kiss him in Regent street.-London

AMOUNT OF FEED FOR COWS
Brief and Simple Rules Given by Me-
braska Experiment Station
Great Aid for Dalrymen.

The Nebraska station gives the fol-
lowing brief and simple rules as an
aid in determining the amount of feed
required by each COW:
LIST. Feed all the roughage, such as
alfalfa, corn silage, etc., that the COW
will eat up clean.
I'd. Feed approximately one pound
Of grain for every three pounds of
milk produced per day
Sd. Give the cows as much feed as
they will consume without gaining in
weight.
4th. Feed some succulent feed, such
as corn silage or roots, to make the
ration more palatable.
9Th. Be prepared to supplement the
pastures by feeding silage when the
dry season sets in.

Lesson In English.
Many travellers have the unfortunate
failing of attributing ignorance and
backwardness to everyone who wears
the strange garb and observes the
strange customs Of a foreign land.
Often, as In the case Of the tourist In
China that the New York Tribune tells
of, there is rude awakening
When his steamer touched at Hong
kong, the tourist was delighted to see
a Chinese woman in the costume of
her country come on board ship. She
was the first Chinese woman that he
had seen in the native dress, and he
determined to take picture. Ad-
vancing to within a few feet of the lit
tie woman, he leveled the camera at
her, and began to exclaim loudly in
amateur pidgin English:
me takee picture! Can catchee7
Can catchee?"
The Chinese woman looked at him
in deep disgust, and replied in perfect
English:
you can catchee, but you may not "
Turning, she walked away. She had
been graduated from an American col
lege the year previous.

Cow Must Have Comfort.

Keep a sharp lookout for the COW
that is failing to pay for the unusual
amount of care she requires during

tenance of clean, comfortable quar-

priced feed she consumes-which is
just as much as that eaten by your

Dogs Winter Wardrobe.

A woman with Maltese terrier went
into large department shop in New
York it is related, to fit out her pet
with his winter wardrobe and, after
spending about $25 on what she deemed
necessary for his health and comfort,
remarked: Hes worth a good many
dollars, and l would rather spend all
this than have him get cold or sick"
What she bought was a sweater for
house, a beautiful cloth coat for dressy
street wear and boots.

Attention to Cleanliness.

If poultrymen would worry less
about ventilation and pay more atten-
ton to cleanliness, there would be
fewer losses. Ventilation is needed,
and if the houses are built on the
scratching-shed order all will be sup
piled that is needed. But if the filth
is allowed to accumulate in a hen
house all the ventilation that a
scratching-shed will afford could not
prevent the entrance of disease.

Great Appetizers.

Cabbage, turnips, beets, etc, are
great appetizers for the cows at milk
ing time and the quiet munching thus
afforded the COW is an incentive to a
more profuse lactation. Indeed, the
greenness thereby supplied will prove
4 stimulus to the milk flow.

Incident of War of 1912.
One hundred years ago the northern
division of the American army had
gone into winter quarters near Ma
lone, N. Y. The British army had en-
camped not far distant and a clash be-
tween the opposing forces was re-
garded as imminent. A letter written
from Plattsburg and dated January 8,
1914, contained the following: For
some time past, it has been strongly
suspected that the enemy meditated
an attack upon this place. Night be-
fore last the commandant received in
formation that the enemy were in mo-
tion-that they had cannon mounted
on runners, and were confiscating all
the horses within reach. This infor-
nation has neither been confirmed nor
contradicted, but the destruction of
this post at the present time, being of
the first Importance to the enemy, it is
reasonable to suppose that an effort
will be made to effect it"
