VARIETY OF FEED FOR cows
Alfalfa Hay and Ground Corn Should
Be Supplemented With SuccuIent
Feed Of Some Kind.

Cows will do very well when fed
nothing but alfalfa hay and ground
corn. 1t is better, of course. to have
these feeds supplemented with some
succulent feed like roots or silage or
pasture.
1t is we'll to take small portion of
the alfalfa hay, chop it fine, moisten
it from twelve to twenty-four hours
before feeding, and then mix it with
the corn chop. This way, the corn
becomes lightened and the moistening
of the crop and alfalfa hay adds
little variety to the ration.
Cottonseed meal may be fed at the
rate of one pound to each animal, but
it is not necessary, as the alfalfa hay
will furnish all the protein the COW
needs. Oil meal would be better
feed to use, if it could be purchased
at the same or even at little higher
price. Oil meal is a splendid feed
to use when animals are receiving no
succulence.-Hoard's Dairyman.

GUARD AGAINST CALF ScoURS
Trouble Caused by Deraneed Diges-
tive Organs, Which in Turn May
Be Due to Dirty Pals.

Perhaps many farmers were troubled
last summer with calf scours. This
trouble is caused by a deranged diges-
tive system, which in turn may be
caused by various conditions. Chief
among them and one that can readily
be guarded against is unclean feeding
pals.
Another common cause is a change
from sweet to sour milk or vice versa
The milk should be either sweet or
sour. Souring or half-sour milk often
brings on scours.
Feed the calves regularly. A little
bran or crushed grain, fed dry, imme-
diately after their milk, is desirable
Successful herdsmen claim that a
tablespoonful of pure dried blood
mixed with the milk at each feeding
is partially effective in preventing and
in relieving cases Of scours. Four
tablespoonfuls of castor oil every two
days until the trouble disappears is
one of the most valuable remedies for
scours.-Press Bulletin, Ohio State
University.

FIne Macadam Road In Missouri.
times, unfortunately. costs are swol-
len by reason of dishonesty and waste.
Now and then, however, there are sur
prises in the other direction.
There is now circulating an inter-
esting account of the surprisingly low
cost of constructing a stretch of high
way in Missouri. 1t seems the state
highway commissioner reported to the
effect that the best-graded earth road in
Missouri was a piece of considerable
length in the Wellington and Napoleon
district. Whereupon the president of
the National Old Trails Road associa-
ton at once wrote to Wellington to
ascertain the cost of this road. He
was told that the total expenditure
on it was six dollars a mile Thinking
this a mistake he wrote again, only to
learn that the figure named was cor
rect. The district, it appears, owns
modern road machinery and pays fair
but moderate wages to an engineman
and two grademen. The per diem ex-
penses run to an even twelve dollars.
Two miles are graded daily. Roads
elsewhere in Missouri that are no bet
ter for practical purposes cost six
thousand dollars a mile.
The surprising revelation thus set
forth would seem to impose upon Off
cials entrusted with responsibility on
behalf of the people when good roads
are to be built the duty of making
careful surveys and estimates before
letting the contracts.

AUTO FEES FOR GOOD ROADS
No Reason Why United States Should
Not Take First Rank in Road
Building Operations.

There are now upward of two mill
lion motor vehicles in use throughout
the country. OF this number more
than million and half are automo-
biles used for business and pleasure
purposes. About $4,000 motor trucks
are now in use. The revenues received
in the various states from the registra-
tions of these motor vehicles amount
to more than twelve and half million
dollars annually.
The greater share of this revenue is
being used for road improvement pur-
poses, and provides a splendid fund
from which great progress should be
made in the construction of permanent
highways.
With the efficient and economical
use Of these new funds there is no rea-
son why America should not take first
rank in road building operations for
some time to come.-Farmers' Review.

SILAGE IN WINTER
HELPS LIVE STOCK
There Is a Tendency Among
Farmers to Forget Resolution
to Construct SiIo.

(By PROF. c. LARSEN. North Dakota
Agricultural College.)
A great many farmers make reso.
lutions during the wintertime that
they will not go through another win.
ter without silage to feed the stock.
When the cornstalks are in the fields
covered with snow, the feed for the
stock is getting short, the COWS are
losing in milk, and the young stock
in flesh, such resolutions come easy,
but when spring and summer come on
and COWS and young stock are doing
well in the pasture, and when there
are good prospects for big crop yield
there is tendency to forget about
the resolution made during the winter
about the building of silo.
Do not let rosy prospects for good
crop delay or prevent anyone from
building silo Build silo of some
kind. If we have a good crop the silo
will help to make more OF it. If we
have a small crop it is still more i'm
portant that we preserve some good
winter feed for the stock.
1t is not a question of the kind of
silo. No one will be prepared to say
which is the best silo. There is no
one silo that has all of the good points.
But any silo has enough good points
to make it a paying investment. Re.
sides, it is so much more comfortable
to take care of cows and stock with
silos. The writer now has IT'S tons of
silage left. This will be fed to the
COWS during the summertime. There
will be no pasture for the COWS. That
will be plowed up to be put into corn
to fill more silos-and more silage will
make room for still more COWS. Those
who build a silo and keep cows and
young stock will never regret it.

Il said nothing, but at once ordered
a package Of Postum. That was five
months ago, and we have drank no
coffee since, except on two occasions
when we had company, and the result
each time was that my husband could
not sleep, but lay awake and tossed
and talked half the night. We were
convinced that coffee caused his suf-
fering, so he returned to Postum, con-
WINGED that coffee was an enemy, in

flavor of high-grade butter, while a
second class does not affect the flavor.
The bacteria present in greatest

The correct temperature of ripening,

generally satisfactory.

the one crop system of farming is
kept up.
New England Farms.
The same thing, only carried a stage
further, has occurred in the New Eng
land states. Since 1889 there have
been S79,499 acres abandoned. These
areas have become exhausted largely
through the loss of humus and the dis
sipation of nitrogen consequent upon
grain and potato growing, without any
due return Of organic matter.
Thus, 1t is evident that within COM
paratively few years, unless this loss
is stopped by the adoption of a sys-
TEN of rotation involving the forma-
tion of sod and by the keeping of
stock, it will inevitably lead to that
low degree of productiveness which is
already common in some sections. If
the farmers of today will only profit
by the mistakes of their predecessors
their problem will only be the main
tenance of fertility instead of increas-
ing it in the years to come. Obvious.
ly the cost in time and cash and labor
of maintaining fertility will be infinite
ly less than of increasing it. This is
no longer a pioneer age. and it be.
comes necessary to abandon pioneer
practices and consider the future as
we'll as the present.
Fertility can be maintained and even
increased without the use of CONNER
cial fertilizers, but the farmer must
realize that the essentials for such
procedure are rotation of crops in
which leguminous crops take an i'm
portant place, the marketing of his
crops in the form of animal products,
and the return to the land of the or
ganic matter which was taken from it.
