REASONS FOR "P0oR FEEDER"
Foreign Bodies often Found Embedded
in Tongue of Animal-Wire and
Nails Lodge in Stomach.

Every year it has been noticed
among cattle in feed lots, that a few
individuals would not make the gains
expected. Various causes have been
attributed to this condition as poor"
teeth, indigestion, infectious diseases,
etc.
Upon post-mortem inspection of
several thousand beef cattle in some
of the packing houses of the West,
the author has frequently found for
eign bodies. as barley boards, or fox
tail, embedded in the tongue, in soma
instances resulting in abscess forma-
ton, or even actinomycosis Cwooden-

wall of the second stomach (honey-

or a nail. Sometimes this piece of

herd. Each community should adopt
one breed and all buy sires of the
same breed. In a short time the
grade surplus stock will command
from $40 to $50 apiece above the
common scrub stock, because Of the
large amount of it to be found in one
community and the reputation they
will acquire for breeding that one
class of stock.
Profits can usually be increased by
better feeding. Each COW must have
enough food-frst, to- maintain her
self; second, with which to- make the
milk she yields, and any surplus above
this is stored up in the form of fat
to be used later when she doesn't get
enough food. The COW that has the
ability to produce forty pounds OF
milk a day, and is only fed enough to
make twenty-five or thirty. pounds a
day, does not make milk as cheap as
she would when fed to her capacity
In the judgment of the writer, the

thirty pounds of milk a day, or better

(By H VAN NoRMANN

(By H. VAN NORMAN.)
Profit is the difference between cost
of production and the selling price.
To insure the largest profit in milk
production, the cow owner must know
that each COW in the herd is produc-
ing enough milk to pay for feed, labor,
interest, taxes and depreciation, and
then leave some for profit. In one
herd, eleven COWS produced 5000
worth of b~utterfat above feed cost,
while four others ate $40 worth of feed
more than the returns for their butter
fat paid for. So that the whole fifteen
only averaged SIS each above cost Of
feed. While, if the man had had only
the best eleven, he would have had
500 more money, saved the feed and
the labor of handling. The only GER
tain way in which these ''robber" COWS
can be located is by yearly records of
milk production. No man has yet
been found who can guess accurately
on every cow in a herd: Records may
be made by the owner, or by several
joining together in a COW test associa-
ton, and employing a man to do the
work.
Having located the improbable
cows, and eliminated them, their
places can be filled in a few cases by
purchase. The prices are getting
high. The best way is through the
purchase of a pure-bred sire from q
profitable COW, and the saving of his
daughters out of the best COWS in the

MORE LIVE STOCK is NEEDED
Unless More Attention Is Given to
Farm Animals Fertility of Soil
viii Be Depleted.
fBy WALTER B. LEUrz.y

Unless American farmers grow
more live stock in the future the fer
tiIity of the soil will be wasted at
such a rate that farming will prove
generally Improbable. Such is the
conclusion which has been reached by
students of the problem, as well as
practical farmers in every commu-
unity of the United States.
The farm animal is absolutely nee
essary. There are many reasons for
this. Live stock enables much OF
the waste about the farm to be con
verted into meat, milk and work.
Much of the crops on the farm can
be marketed in smaller packages
when converted into butter, milk an6
meat. The boys and girls on the farm
are far more liable to become inter
ested in farming if an interest in live
stock can be awakened.

GIVE SHEEP SOME ATTENTION
Animals Should Not Be Allowed to
Stand on Wet or Muddy Dirt
Floors-Avoid Rangy Breeds.

No man who understands his bust
ness will ever allow his sheep to stand
on wet or muddy dirt floors.
When selecting sheep for breeding
beware of the long-legged, rangy
breeds. Get those that are close to
the ground. There is no money in
raising sheep legs.
If the pastures are short this fall
the sheep must have some grain or
they will fall back to a point where
all profit will be lost in bringing them
up again.
When pastures get short the sheep
will eat the roots of the grass right
out of the ground if too many are
kept in one lot. Better feed some
grain and save the grass.
Ever notice that the nas.ures where
sheep are kept grow better grass than
those used for horses or cows?
A South Dakota man has kept coy
otes and even dogs away from his
flock by setting up scarecrows in the
shape of a man. These he changes
from one part of the pasture to an
other every day or two.

LITTLE HELPS FOR
A THRIFTY FARMER
Get Moving Machine in Order
Before Haying Commences
Don't PIoW Too Early.

One of the best things you can do
to make the moving machine work
better is to take off the guards, if
they are somewhat worn, and grind
them along the edge that comes next
to the sections. 1t is quite a job,
but it pays well. Take a day before
haying time really commences, SO the
work may not be delayed.
Look out for any weak or broken
places in the hay rigging. 1t is no
fun and it may be really dangerous
to have a breakdown with a load of
hay on. Look after this now while
other work is not pressing. 1t is the
neglected stitch hat splits the gar
ment.
It's a big mistake to plow when the
ground shows up slick and oozy, as it
leaves the moldboard. Too wet, and
that means clods and impairment OF
the texture of the soil. We are all
too eager to turn the ground over as
soon as the spring days come, but a
little patience and good will
save trouble later and add to the bulk
of the crops.

IMPROVE THE RURAL M

A commercial club in Kentucky has
appropriated a sum of money to be
given as prizes among the residents Of
a certain section of the country. for
the best-kept lawns and the best dis
plays of farm and garden products.
The idea of the club is to induce the
people living in that section to i'm
prove their surroundings and beautify
their premises. 1t believes in the
value of keeping up appearances and
that there is a profit in Identification
which rural communities are not apt
to appreciate. This organization
thinks there are many rural homes
that could be greatly improved in ap-
pea-ance by neatly kept lawns, at
tractive shrubs and well-cultivated gar
dens, and has come to the conclusion
that timely attention given to details
Of this character by the farmer would

ance of his place, but stimulate his

BRANCHING CELERY
is VERY IMPORTANT
Big Growers Follow Practically
the Same Methods-Apply
Manure Every Season.

Under good conditions celery plants
grow very rapidly. Soon after the
plants are well started they should be
given a light application of nitrate of
soda and another about two weeks
later; this is all they will need until
they have reached the proper. growth,
Celery is blanched in several ways,
but the best practice for the farm is
to place the plants in a trench about
twelve inches deep, twelve inches wide
The plants are taken up with a spad-
ing fork, the roots trimmed off square
and all faulty stalks should be re-
moved from the outside of the bunch.
Place the plants four in a row and
pack a little damp soil around the
roots. After the plants have been
placed in the trench, place a Finch
board on each side of the plants and
draw the tops slightly together. A
board placed on top will make a COW
ering which will protect the plants
until hard, freezing weather, when lit
ter and earth must be thrown over the
trench to prevent them from freezing.
The slightest touch with frost will
ruin them. If celery is to be marketed
late in the winter it should be placed
in a hotbed or in earth in the cellar,
or in a storage house.
The big celery growers follow the
same method except that after the
plants are placed in the trench witt
the boards on citizen side of the rows
which are gradually withdrawn unit
the trench is nearly filed, leaving the
tops above the surface. Then a littlt
straw is placed over the tops and hello
down by an occasional shovelful OF
earth, and this is added to as weather
becomes. colder.
Some growers blanch their celery by
placing over the plants a section Of
drain tile and covering up the tor
with a coarse cloth. or litter.
Blanching is really a very important
part of producing, good celery; be
cause, unless the plants are white

During the late Lord Peel's tenure
