The cow should be brushed with a
good stiff brush daily. Any cow sus-
pected Of being In bad health should
be promptly removed from the herd
and the milk rejected. Fresh, palatable
feedstuffs should be fed and feed

Salt, too. should always be accessible.
The barn should be kept clean and
the stables whitewashed once or twice
every six months. No dry. dusty feed
should be used just before milking
The stables should be cleaned and
aired thoroughly before milking. Ven
tilation and light are absolutely neces-
sary. No strong smelling material
should be left in the stables for any
length Of time. Musty and dirty litter
should never be used.
When the cows are MIXED the milk

Carefully Selected and Prepared Hints
Intended to Assist Farmer
With Herd Of Cows.

prepared by Dairy Division of Clemson
College)
Using the milk scales Is one
weigh" toward dairy success.
Skim milk makes pork. veal and
poultry of a high grade.
There Is practically no food quite
so generally wholesome as pure milk.
In planning a dairy barn. allow not
less than four square feet OF light
space for each COW.
Try to have the cows calve in fall
rather than in spring. There are many
advantages in this.
Never trifle with bull. Treat him
gently. but treat him firmly. Let him
have no doubt that you are his master.
Cows. while in heat. should be kept
separate from the rest OF the herd.
This win avoid disturbances.
The manure spreader has the double
advantage Of paying for itself In saw
ing Of labor and insuring an even dis
tribution of manure on. q field.
Overlooking, lack OF exercise. impure
air. constipation and drinking cold
water are probably the most common
causes Of milk fever.

3 inches in length and weighs only
4S pounds, making 1t very convenient
for one man to handle. This trough,
constructed as cheaply and as dur
ably as possible. is sufficiently strong
so that the pigs cannot break it to
pieces.
The accompanying illustrations
show the detailed plan of construc-
ton. Lumber seven-sighths inch
thick is used In constructing the
trough, with the exception of the
floor and ridge pole. The floor is
made from one-inch stuff, while the
ridge pole can be made from piece
of lumber two inches square dressed.
The following bill of material is
necessary to construct the weaving
trough:
One piece / inch by / foot by IL
feet for the floor and ends. The end
pieces cen be dressed down to seven
eighths inch.
One piece seven-elghths by inches
by 16 feet for the two sides.
One piece inches square by 5 feet,
dressed for the ridgepole.
One piece seven-eighths by Ia
inches by Is feet for the partition
pieces.
Total number of board feet, 30.
Thirty-six screws (1A inches, No,
81 to fasten the partition pieces.
Fifty-two nails (S-penny) IA used
to fasten each end piece to the ridge
pole, sides and bottom; L. used to
fasten each side piece to the floor OF
the trough.
A weaving trough constructed like
the one described in this article will
aid each pig to get his share OF feed
and will also insure comfort to the
pigs while eating. A feeder can
handle a well.built trough and carry

ROUGHAGE FOR FARM HORSES
Beth Glover and Alfalfa Are Excellent
When Fed Juololously--TIinothy
ls Most Popular.

Like oats, timothy is considered by
many horsemen indispensable to the
best horse rations, but this is by no
means the case. OF the most available
Of the hays, timothy is the lowest in
digestible nutrients. Its great popu-
larity as horse feed is due to the
fact that it is usually brighter and
freer from dust than the other hays,
also 1t is most relished by the horse.
However, either clover or alfalfa
hays, IL fed judiciously, will make good
roughage for farm horses.
Alfalfa has a nutritiYe ration OF
about Ia. that is to say 1t is very
high in protein, and about as high
in fats and carbohydrates as timo-
thy. Because Of its high protein
content it has a slightly laxative ef-
feet, but this may be overcome by
cutting the alfalfa late In the bloom.
Under this condition II makes a most
excellent horse feed for brood mares
and colts, and II can also be fed with
great profit to farm work horses. The
horses relish the hay and hold their
weight, and even gain under steady
work. They also show as much met
tie and vitality as though they were
fed timothy.
Glover is another excellent rough.
age. In fact, many horsemen have
found 1t more valuable than timothy
hay. II has high nutritive value,
and is very palatable. In a certain
case number OF horses doing or.
binary work were maintained on
clover for several years without any
grain allowance. The objections
raised to clover are that it is usually
too dusty, and too rich in protein for
driving horses.

The cream should be kept in as
nearly a sweet condition as possible
until enough has been gathered for a
churning. This should then be soured
or ripened. To ripen the cream warm
1t to temperature of rs to so degrees,
until 1t is sour enough; then cool down
to temperature of from SIS to so de-
grees, which is right for churning.
Let it stand at this temperature for
an hour or so before churning, II pos
sible. This will cause the butter to
come in better condition. Cream that
is being ripened should be thoroughly
stirred several times before it is ready
for churning.
It Is often advisable to save some OF
the buttermilk of one churning to be
used as starter (the same as yeast
in breadmaking) for the next batch
OF cream. Add small amount Of
this buttermilk to the sweet cream
when enough has been gathered for a
churning; thoroughly stir 1t, and it
will ripen very much more rapidly.
Care should be exercised to keep this
old buttermilk in as good condition
as possible.
Strain all cream into the churn.
This will remove all clots and parti.
cles Of curd, and there will be no dan
ger of white specks n the butter. Do
not fill the churn over one-third to
one-half full. Give the cream room
for agitation, which insures quick
churning. Turn the churn just fast
enough to give the cream the greatest
amount of agitation.
The butter should be gathered until
the grains become about one-half the
size OF wheat. Then draw OF the
buttermilk through a strainer and
wash the butter in cold water two or
three times. or until the wash water
is removed practically clear. In wash
ing. care should be exercised not to
bring the grains together in one mass,
but rather keep 1t in the granular con-
dition. The washing Of the butter
removes the buttermiIk and makes the
butter keep for a longer time. 1t also
puts 1t in better condition for sailing.
The butter should be taken from
the churn in the granular condition
and the salt sprinkled over 1t before
II has been worked together Usually
q scant ounce Of salt is added for each
pound of butter.
One working, at the time of salt
ing, is usually sufficient, providing the
butter is hard enough when removed
from the churn. II the butter is
somewhat soft when taken out, II can
be sailed and set away few hours
until Il gets hard enough to finish.
Butter Is usually worked enough when
the water has been removed SO that 1t
viii bend without breaking. Too much
working win spoil its grain and make
1t salvy, while leaving too much wa
ter in 1t win spoil its keeping quail
ties.
Pack or print the butter as soon
as 1t has been worked sufficiently and
put 1t in cool place until it is taken
to the market. Remember that the
appearance Of tho package. as we'll
as the way the butter is packed, has
q great deal to do with the selling
price.

Young pigs. just after they are
taken away from their dam, should
be given their feed in such manner
that each individual pig gets its share.
The simplest way to accomplish this
is to allow the pigs to eat from
properly constructed feed trough;
one that win keep the pigs out of the
feed and will lessen the possibility
OF crowding the little ones out of
their rightful allowance.
The weaving trough shown above is
used with good results on the govern
ment experiment farm at Bel.sville,
Nd. This trough is large enough to
aold a quantity of slop sufficient to
feed 20 weanling pigs weighing APP
proximately IS pounds. 1t is only
three inches deep, thus enabling the
pigs to get at their feed very con-
veniently. The construction of the

To keep barbed-wire and similar

apparently serves its purpose ade-

wire bent double, hairpinlike, with
one end twisted spirally about the 9TH

which the fence wires may pass. The
top of the device is looped while at
the bottom are the two free ends of

CHICKEN PETITIONS.

Alderman Ruple, and other inter- ested citizens are passing around pc Ititions, which are being very general signed, asking the City Council to reconsider the petition pertaining to the keeping up of chickers in tke cor. porate limits of the city, said petition being incorporated in an ordinance about F months ago, by your bedy.
 Three petitions are being circulated, and it is estimated that they have been signed by necrly 150 voters and tax payers in Springdale. It will be remembered that this same question was up before the Council some time time ago, and the ordinance came near passing, but was defeated. The other petition s, some few months ago, were presented to the Council time a member Of the Council. There lis some diversity of opinion in Spring dale as to the advisability of such an ordinance, some c aiming that it would work a hardship on citizens living near the city limits, and 1t is supposed that this feature will be well taken care of should the Coun- cil be disposed to take any action. and frame new ordinance.
