SWEET PEAS USED
AS A COVER CROP
As Good Green Manure Crop as
Any Other Variety of Peas
Easy to Grow.

In Mexico the sweet pea has been
tried out as a cover crop and found
most promising. In New Mexico the
peas are sown the last of September
or the first of October. In the East,
in the latitude of New York, autumn
planting would likely cause a partial
or total loss of the crop, unless the
peas were planted very deep, six or
eight inches.
Peas are ready to turn under by
the first of May. The vines during
normal seasons are in full bloom by
May Is. Some were not turned under
until the last of May
The results indicate that this is one
of the hardest and easiest to grow OF
the pea family. The high cost of the
seed may keep it from being ex-
tensive1y planted, otherwise the sweet
pea makes as good green manure
crop as any of the other varieties
of peas.

true, and no calf is well born from
a COW that is not fed nourishing ra.
ton while she is carrying it.
The danger of this is greater among
dairy cattle than among other breeds
of cattle, for the reason that they pos
sess an inherent quality of throw
ing their food into milk. Cows that
are carrying calves should be fed
plenty of bone-and-muscle-form
foods in connection with some form OF
good, nourishing, succulent food, Ell
tier roots or ensilage.
The dairy COW should have period
of rest after each milking season, so
that she may have time to build up
her energies and nourish her calf.
She will need a period of rest after
she drops her calf, so that she may
be in good, vigorous condition when
bred. Cows need rest, and time to
regain their normal condition before
they are bred again. Have you ever
stopped to think how fast we are rum
ming the cow-machine when we force
her to keep up heavy flow of milk,
besides nourishing a calf, during the
larger portion of year? Is it any
wonder that dairy farmers are alarmed
over the health of their herds, and
are sending for tuberculin, hypoder-
mic syringes, and thermometers, when
they are forcing their cows to their
utmost capacity?
Is it strange that they have abor.
ton, defective teats and udders, and
other ailments, when we compel them
to put all their energies into produc-
ing dairy products for US? What we
need in the dairy business is plain COW
sense, and a knowledge of the laws
of health and vitality in our dairy
herds.

GROUND LIMESTONE
CORRECTS AClDITY
Strong Evidence to Show That
Unburned Stone Is Effec-
tive and Economical.

New York agricultural experiment
station advocates the use of ground
limestone to correct soil acidity, and
give strong evidence to show that
this unburned stone, ground moder-
ately fine and applied in liberal guam
titles once in rotation of from three
to five years, is fully as effective as
other forms of lime, and in some con-
ditions decidedly more economical.
In many cases a grinder can be
bought comparatively and set up in
a neighborhood where the limestone
ledges are plentiful, thus saving
freight. The work can be done in
seasons where other farm work is not
pressing.

It is hard to convince some people

In the feeding of a herd of dairy
cattle we must consider that the ami
mails have been artificially bred and
developed until they stand before US
very unbalanced and abnormal ami
mails. The feeding of dairy cattle has
been largely from the standpoint of
production at the pail, and not atten-
ton and study enough have been de-
voted to the selection of foods best
adapted to the health of the cows, and
to the calves they are carrying.
On the other hand, there are many
dairymen who are feeding for produc-
tion and not for profit. You may ask
If feeding for production is not feeding
for profit. Not always. 1t is not the
men securing the most milk who are
making the most clear money from
their dairy business. There is limit
as to how much feed the COWS can
utilize at profit, just the same as
there is limit to how much grain
feed the cows can consume without
doing serious injury to their digestive
systems.
When we speak of the productive
qualities Of the COW, we should not
fail to keep in mind that productive
qualities include the calf as well as
the milk. Whenever we conduct our
feeding on any other basis than this
we are doing 1t at the expense OF
the vitality and health of our cows
as well as the calves they are carry
ing.
1t is not alone for present results
that we are feeding, but for the de
velopment of the calf that is to some
day take the place of its dam in the
herd. The old saying that "a cal
well born is half grown" is eminently

PAsTEURlzING MILK IN BULK
New Process Eliminates Danger of
Bottle lnfection-Saves Much
Loss In Evaporation.

That the process of pasteurizing
milk in oulk and then bottling it
while hot in hot steaming bottles pro
duces as satisfactory bacterial reduc-
tions as pasteurizing the milk in bot
ties. is one of the conclusions of
recent investigation which the de-
partment OF agriculture has conduct
ed on this subject.
The investigators found that the
new process eliminated the danger of
bottle infection and had the further
advantages of saving the loss in milk
caused by evaporation over the cool
er and OF allowing the use of ordi-
nary cardboard caps.
