In all sections where dairying is be-
Ing conducted cattle foods are each
year becoming more costly and every
dairyman should make every effort to
reduce the cost of his cow feeds
Instead Of feeding hay that is worth
fifteen dollars a ton he should re-
place large portion of it with en-
silage, which can be raised chiefly
by machine labor
Instead OF supplementing q poor
pasture with purchased grain foods
he should raise oats and peas. green
corn and other green soiling crops.
Instead Of buying fattening foods
like corn meal he should buy milk
producing foods like bran, cottonseed
meal and gluten meal. AS a rule 1t is
most profitable to buy the kind that
will produce the most protein at the
least cost.
Make the business as self-support-
ing as possible by raising as much of
the feed for the dairy as your farm
and circumstances will allow.
Many Of the failures in dairying are
due to the fact that farmers disre-
gard these points and go out and buy
grain foods without discriminating
judgment.
To keep good cows and feed them
good, wholesome food in abundance
and provide this food cheaply is alb
solutely necessary If We make a sub
stantial profit from the business.
There is no rule for feeding dairy
cows that can be laid down, that will
apply to all cows alike; and still the
success Of the herd will depend large
ly upon procuring the best produc
ton at the lowest cost from each COW

many feeders do moi seem to realize
what we mean when we speak of a

We should study our COWS closely.

they clean up all Of their feed and

Every failure in the poultry bust
ness can be traced, according to James
G. Halpin. poultry man at the Wiscon-
sin College of Agriculture, to one or
more of the following reasons:
l. Too expensive and too impractical
buildings. Flocks do not require cost
ly equipment. and Of course the poul-
try man must pay interest on his in
vestment.
2. Lack OF experience and failure to
raise chicks properly. Many a man has
jumped into the poultry business with
little or no experience, and naturally
has lost money in his plunging.
3. Failure to market right. To pro-
duce superior product is not enough.
1t must be advantageously marketed.
4. Starting with poor stock. 1t costs
little or no more to start with profit
producing stock than it does with in
ferior fowls
5. Neglect in improving breeding
stock. BY carefully selecting the hens
and mating them with we'll chosen
males more improvement will be Sc
cured.
6. Neglect in cleaning. Filth is a
certain cause Of loss to the poultry
man.
Z. Neglect in fighting lice and mites.
These pests are source of heavy loss
to all who do not fight them.
s. Poor management. Like every
other business. poultry raising re.
quires close attention to details.
Should Go Slow.
The more common cause Of failure
is too heavy investment. Many farm
ers start with expensive buildings as
soon as they get the hen fever" They
run into debt, become discouraged
after a few mistakes, and quit the
business. 1t is wiser to patch up the
old poultry house and make improve
ments gradually as your profits war
rant the expenditure. All amateur poul
try man should go slow and build VI

Keep her hungry than to overfeed her.
In fact. the only way to keep early
spring pigs from growing too rapidly
and becoming too fat when the sows
are confined is to feed the sows spar
ingly.

erclse' the feed may be gradually in

have a keen appetite for their next
feeding. Watch their droppings to
see that no food passes through them
undigested.
Watch results closely from any
new line of feeding that may be in
troduced. Never make too sudden or
radical a change in the line Of feed
ing practiced. Treat the cows kindly,
feed them regularly, milk them at
regular hours and. IL possible. always
have the same person milk them.
In increasing grain ration We
should never increase 1t more than
one-half pound a day In this way
the cows digestive organs have an
opportunity to become adjusted to
the change and are able to take care
of the additional amount of feed. In
this way you can safely increase her
feed until she is obtaining all that
she can economically handle.
Care must be exercised that we do
not feed so much grain food that there
is no room or appetite left for coarse
folders.
Coarse folders are highly essential
in preserving the health Of the COW
and not tending toward making fat.
AS a general proposition 1t will be
| found a safe rule to follow to feed
| twice as many pounds of hay as we
do grain. The cow that is being fed
eight pounds of grain a day should
have sixteen pounds of good hay.
| If ensilage is being fed we must
count three or four pounds Of that
equal to one pound Of hay or dry
fodder.
Methods of preserving ensilage are
better understood and the prejudice
against milk and butter from COWS
that are fed ensilage is fast disappear
Ing. Succulent foods and comforta6le
barns are the making Of maximum
yields In winter practicable. and this
coupled with higher prices for milk
and its products makes it more profit
able for us to practice all-the-year
around dairying.

Russia Awakens

One of the most significant dispatches that
has come out of Petrograd recently was that
within five years after the close Of the war de-
cree providing compulsory education would be in
full force and effect. What such decree means
for Russia cannot be overestimated.
The autocratic government of Russia makes
it possible for the decree to be enforced quickly
and strictly. At the present time two-thirds of
Russias 100, 900 citizens are illiterate. The
country they occupy, while partly frozen, is also
in large part one of the richest and most produc-
tive on the globe To bring liberal education to
this vast horde of people blessed with such natur-
al resources means the awakening of an empire
destined to be Of tremendous Importance in world
affairs.
This is not the first time Russia has shown
signs of an awakening. The car demonstrated
himself to be of progressive mind long ago.

Divine Right Of Kings

Whatever there remains of the fiction Of the
divine right of kings, it ought by now to be thor
oughly discredited. If any of them ruled by
divine right, they would not now be engaged in
this hellish business Of war. They and their
governments, through selfishness ambition,
envy, intrigue, suspicion, hate and other things
forbidden by divine communicative set millions
of men killing one another and others as well.
Homes have been and are being destroyed; build
ings, which are among the most priced on earth,
have been razed prosperity has been laid low and
the fields have been sown with death.
Looking on such Spectacle as this, one must
be convinced that the divine right to rule rests
with nobody except the people themselves who
are ruled. In demonstration of the right Of self
government, this republic was proclaimed 139
years ago. Here that right has ever since been
maintained, and because they believed in that
principle, people have been flocking hither ever
since, sometimes at the rate of a million year
Perhaps this war was needed that the princi-
pies of the Declaration Of independence and the
Constitution might the sooner gain foothold in
other lands.-Columbus Dispatch.
