USES FOR MANURE SPREADER
Time and Labor Saved by Distributing
Fertilizer-Vehicle Can be Used
as a Common Wagon.

Using the manure spreader for dis
tributing fertilizer Is another of those
cases Of saving time and labor over
the cid method Of hand scattering A
spreader can be as quickly and easily
loaded as a common wagon while the
time required to unload is about one
fourth that of unloading by hand. Be-
sides, the driver has chance to rest
while unloading the spreader. conse-
quently he can load the spreader again
quicker and easier than where he tires
himself in unloading by hand. This
saving in time ana work enables ore
to do from two to three times more
hauling, which of course reduces the
cost accordingly.
But the greatest profit in connec-
ton with the work of the spreader is
that OF economy in the use OF the
manure When distributed by the
spreader It will cover two or three
times as much land as when scattered
by hand, for all Jumps and hard pieces
win be torn into fine PARTICLES and
distributed evenly over the ground.

mals-Other Remedies.

Sometimes a fine spray OF pure kerr
osene is very effective in knocking Off
flies. This spray should not be heavy
enough to penetrate the hair, or 1t
will blister the skin. Another spray
is made by the use of ordinary coal
tar dip or creosote two parts. mineral
oil four parts. water ten parts This
is usually put on with brush or a
sponge
or the mixtures classed as "repel-
Tents" the following is supposed to be
very good: One gallon fish or whale
oil; one pint coal Oil; two ounces
crude carbolic acid. A little melted
resin is supposed to make these mix
lures stick to the hair a little better.
Another remedy suggested is ten parts
lard or axle grease to one part of pine
tar. Such mixtures are usually dis
agreeable to apply, and the bad odor
IL generally a greater nufRAce than
the presence OF the flies
The principal advantage OF light
sprays is that they drive the flies
away during milking time These
have to be applied every day and do
not keep the flies off very long. The
repellent mixtures are usually applied
twice a week, and will keep flies off
from two to four days.

CARING FOR THE RAM
Head of Average Farm Flock Re-
CeiVeS Little Attention.
Should Be Given Every Opportunity to
Keep Strong and Healthy Before
Breeding Season 5egins-Give
Abundance of Water.

Usually. the ram which heads the
average farm flock receives very lit
tie care from the time he is turned
out TO pasture IN the spring until the
advent OF the breeding season in the
fail. Then, about the only thing which
is done is TO turn him in with the ewes
and allow mating to occur at random
Perhaps this is the sort OF care and
management which results in many
barren ewes and weak lambs.
The mating season IS naturally one
of severe strain on the ram and he
should be gwen every possible oppor-
tunity to keep strong and healthy
This means that he ought to have the
proper kind of care, even before the
breeding season begins. OF course,
ii the pasture is plentiful. there is not
any need of feeding anything else
during the early part of the grazing
season. However. as the hot weather
{ mes and the grass becomes less
abundant and less succulent, it may
be advisable TO feed other roughage
or perhaps a little grain.
Especially during the month Just
preceding the mating season should
the ram get the best of feed and care
