When spring is thoroughly in, the
country will be full of rich grass, and
nearly all the stock of the farm will
be doing we'll on it. Its effect is some
what relaxing for a time, but such re-
taxation must not be classified with
that which in delicate animals is
caused by indigestion. For instance. a
calf is badly weaned, ill nurtured in
its infancy, during which period the
constitution is made or married. Then
as yearling or two-year.old, the
steer has become so debilitated that
he cannot digest the ordinary food,
and the excavations are too liquid for
robustness, and habitual purging is the
unhappy portion of such an unprofit-
able animal, which remains unthrifty
for life.
The healthy yearling or two-year-old
bullock may, just when the grass is
young and flushy, be purged as much,
but he will rapidly gain flesh, and as
the grass becomes older and harder,
the purging will gradually disappear.
On such pastures where the grass
is exceptionally rich, no one who thor
oughly knows his business will put any
stock except superior full-grown bull
locks, because the grass is rich enough
to fatten them, making them third,
at the least, more valuable; and then
he has the use of the grass, when the
bullocks are grown, for other stock.
or course there are few farmers who
have pasture that will fatten bullocks
without artificial assistance, and those
who have such a luxury should not de-
bilitate it by moving, but rather build
1t up by the best of farmyard manures.
I cannot say am an advocate of
using light artificial manures for pas
lures, but grass can be indirectly fed
by carting green food to the stock and
linseed cake and other purchased
foods. ,....,
The land from which any of these
green crops are taken must be com

KIND OF DAlRYING
MAN WILL ATTEMPT
Much Depends Upon Location Of
Farmers Land-Much Ad-
vantage in Freight Rates.

(B. WILLIAM A. FREEHOFF)
The kind Of dairying a man will at
tempt depends largely upon the loca-
ton of his land. II the farm is within
mile or two of some large city,
worth several hundred dollars per
acre, the most profitable type will be
the retail milk farm.
This milk, or sweet cream, even,
must be of high class, and must sell
for correspondingly high price in
order to be profitable. The farmer sim
ply cannot afford to make butter or
cheese on such expensive land and
make 1t pay dividends.
In summer, during the ice cream
season, there is a heavy demand on
some days, and lighter call on others.
There is no uniform price. The dairy
man will have to make quite elaborate
arrangements with retailers in order to
sell all of his products to advantage.
There is another disadvantage, how
ever-that is. the matter of freight or
express rates. Then there are those
men beyond the easy reach Of some
city markets. About the best thing
they can do is to haul their milk or
cream to a cheese factory or creamery,
as the case may be.
They may even arrange to have q
man call for the cream at stated inter.
walls This method Of dairying has the
advantage that the skim milk or whey
remains on the farm, and thus less
fertility is carried of.
But often there are very isolated
farms. those which are too far from
the city to cater to the retail trade and
too far from any city to ship sweet
cream.
These men may we'll sell to q cen
tral,zed plant. This factory. which 90

cepts milk and cream when shipped
for hundreds of miles, has facilities for
using a product that has soured in
transit.
OF course there may be isolated
cases where it pays best to manufac-
ture the milk right on the farm, into
either butter or cheese, but this takes
much work and hardly pays when
there is creamery or cheese factory
in the neighborhood.

Mr.. Hall reports that the wet wealth
er is not confined to this section of
the country, but Is prevailing In the
east also. He has been in the New
England states, and reports that they
are having plenty of rainy weather IN
that section. He is hoping that the
wet weather which has been In vogue
here will be over with shortly, as It
is delaying to some extent the work
on the lead company's plant. The
construction of the switch track is de-
ilayed becaues of the bad weather, and
lit is hoped that better weather will
prevail shortly in order that all OF
/ the work on the new plant can be
rushed to completion.
The railroad contractors have been
able to get one or two good days for
work on the grading job, but have
been seriously handicapped by the
wet weather.
Mr.. Hall is expecting to stay in
Keokuk jpr some time, 3ow, worS,ag
on the local plant.

RAz1NG SMALL HOUSES

Work was commenced last week
on the buildings on the grounds or the
Scott Madden plant preparing them
for the occupation of the American
Cement Machine manufacturing COM
pany. By yesterday afternoon several
Of the older buildings had been re-
moved. One building at the corner
of Fourth and Exchange streets had
been RACED, and other buildings on
the ground had been removed.
There is a force of twenty TO
twenty-five men at work preparing
the buildings and grounds for the
American Cement Machine COM
pany's occupancy. 1t was announced
last Tuesday that work of preparing
this property for the machine com.
pany's occupation would begin at
once. and would be pushed to com
pletion.
There is considerable work to be
done in getting the large buildings
in shape for the machine company's
property. Some Of the smaller build
ings will have to be RACED to make
way for the modern buildings which
the plant will erect.
That the company expects to move
into their new location as soon as 1t
lis possible. is evident from the speed
with which the work of rehabilitat-

POTATOES IN
PLACE OF BREAD.

IF wheat remains at it's present

scientists in the department. sug.
gest that the ordinary household
will find it advantageous to eat
more potatoes and less bread.
With potatoes at go cents a
bushel, 10 cents worth, or 10
pounds, will give the consumer a
little more actual nOurishment
than two pound loaves of bread
at 5 cents each The protein and
fat are present in appreciably
larger amounts IN the bread, but
the potatoes will be found to fur
nish more carbohydrates and
more heat units.
Carbohydrates (starch) contrl-
butte greatly to the energy value
of any diet, and since potatoes
are rich in these families that
wish to expend their money to
the best advantage are recon.
mended to consider whether they
can not make a more extended use
of them. They arc easy to cook
and when prepared in different
ways can be made to lend variety
to the winter diet when green veg
etables are hard to obtain. Like
other foods relatively rich in car
bohydrates, however, potatoes
should be eaten with foods CORES
