The Vermont Farmer

Some int resting and valuable statistics
concerning the items of living expense
on the Verm NJ farm have lately been
given out by The government department
| OF agriculture. La comparison with like
! figures OF other states they ought TO
carry u lesson A survey of forty-nine
dairyiDg farms in Vermont was made.
| The average cost OF hoard and lodging
on the farm TOR each individual was
found to be SAT 10. of which $75 81 went
| for food The same cost in nine other
states averaged $l76, which may imply
either that the Vermont farmer is more
thrifty or that he lives on "a lower scale.
| The department assumes, with some rea-
SOB, that the difference is to be accounted
for by the fact that much of what the
Vermont farmer uses has to be bought,
and in consequence is used as little as
possible. The food consumed by the
Vermont family of As persons amounted
to 1851 go. of which 53.2 per cent came
from tue farm itself. The correspond
ing averages for all the areas were $412 90
and SO per cent respectively. 1t appears
that theVermont farmer sells more that
herase and buys more than he uses than
almost any other farmer lnasmuch as
this is wasteful course economically he
should mend his way and follow the x
ample of his neighbors in other states.
The department finds that our dairy
farmers buy 92.S per cent of their gro
ceres, half Of the families buy their but
ter and that they use very limited guam
titles of their own milk and eggs In
Iowa the average co assumption of eggs is
So dozen per person, inVermont II dozen.
The conclusion is that the Vermont
farmer likes to handle money, though he
spends relatively moie lban he takes in
The item of providing as far as possible
for the wants of his family from his own
acres, flocks and herds are neglected in
favor of selling as much as he can and
paying out the money for things that he
needs or wants.

BAND SAVED THE SMALL BOY
Whether the Bull Was Astonished or
Disguised 1t Is, of Course, I'M
possible to Say.

"The village had new brass band"
said an urbanite just in from a stay
in an ultra rural part of an eastern
state. "The new band played it's first
piece one day, considerably going
some distance out of the village to do
it. That delicate consideration doubt
less saved the life of a small boy, but
it killed Farmer Stauffer's valuable
Jersey bull
"At the time the band went out to
play it's first tune the bull was feeding
contentedly in its pasture, which was
near the spot chosen by the band for
venturing on its initial burst of tune.
While the band was getting it's collec-
tive lips ready to compel that burst
from it's horns the small boy who ag-
ured in the episode was taking a short
cut through the pasture to get to the
band.
THE bull took note Of the small
boys presence and proceeded at once
to hasten his trip across the lot. The
boy did not delay his fastening. The
band had not seen the procession NOV
ing through the meadow, although the
bull was mounting his displeasure
Justify as he ran and the small boy
was lifting up his voice in audible and
penetrating tones, so absorbed was
that band in thought of what it was
on the verge of lifting up itself.
"The bull was within three jumps OF
the speeding small boy when the band
had at last got ready to play it's tune
The band began to play. At the first
burst from the assembled horns the
bull stopped short, threw up his head
and shifted the air. The band blared
again. The bull turned and rushed
wildly toward nearby stone wall that
divided the lot from another lot. The
band threw it's soul once more into
its horns and the bull sprang over the
wall. He came down on his head on
the other side. The small boy. though,
did not stop in his flight, and the last
seen of him was a streak of dust in
the road leading to the village. The
bulls neck was broken. He was dead"

CARING FOR BREEDING cows
No Question That Growing and Selling
Calves Under Proper Conditions
Is Profitable Business.

In part, no doubt, the difficulty OF
getting high percentage of calves
arises from sending dry cows to the
shambles. The COW that has sucked
down often fails to get In calf next
year. She is in calf and fat and away
she goes. Another COW that has raised
a calf takes a rest next year, and SO
on.
One advantage of selling the calf
crop to the feeder rather than year.
lings or older cattle is that SO much
more attention and feed can be given
to the breeding cows and their higher
condition and vitality will enable them
to produce more calves.
If there is a shortage OF, feed it will
usually be noticed that heifers that
breed young and older COWS that have
been breeding take lay off, and this
is undesirable, with calves at present
prices.
A good calf is worth $25 to $50, and
selling even a few Of these will fur
nish hay to winter several mother
cows that lay the golden egg. There
is no question that growing and sell
ing calves under proper conditions is
a paying business, both for the grower
and the feeder who buys them, as
they go to the feed lot in splendid
condition, but it will not pay unless
the COWS receive enough attention and
are kept breeding, except. as a more or
less speculative proposition, depending
on the prices at which cows are
bought and sold.
Where the production of really high
class feeder calves is the end in view,
these can be constantly increased in
value by more feed and better cows.

DOGS SHOULD BE DISCARDED
No Excuse for Sending Swapping Cur
After Cows With Full Udders-
Better to Take Horse.

When COWS are in the pastures do
not send vicious dog to drive them
in. The COW that is run to the house
BY dog that is continually swapping
at her heels must suffer a great deal
Of pain as her udder is thrown from
side to side by the movement of her
fleet limbs. If man is too lazy to
walk after his cows he had better get
on his horse and ride. A well trained
dog may be allowed to bring them in,
for he quietly walks behind them and
does not bring them down the lane at
a two-forty gait.

PURE RICH BLOOD
PREVENTS DISEASE

Bad blood, that is, blood that is
impure or impoverished, thin and
pale,-is responsible for more all
ments than anything else.
1t affects every organ and function.
In some cases it causes catarrh; in
others, dyspepsia; in others, rheuma-
tism; and in still others, weak, tired,
languid feelings and worse troubles.
1t is responsible for rundown
conditions, and is the most common
cause of disease.
Hoods Sarsaparilla is the greatest
purifier and enricher of the blood the
world has ever known. 1t has been
wonderfully successful in removing
scrofula and other humors, increasing
the red-blood corpuscles, and building
up the whole system. Get it today

DAIRNO!Ty'

Safety first is the best policy in
handling the dairy bull.
When you build barn see that 1t
is comfortable and sanitary.
Every cow in the herd should be
halter-broken. Begin while they are
calves.
II you haven't one, there Is still
time to put up silo for this winters
feeding.
The calf should be given fine locks
OF hay when young to encourage its
appetite.
To have a calf that will mature
into a valuable individual give It
proper care from the start
In any but a round silo the silage
does not settle well, and even settling
is what makes quality in silage.
Scours is far too common a malady
with young calves and If not checked
the outcome may be disastrous.
The COW that has to spend two
thirds of her time fighting flies can
not count for much at the milk pail.
The dairyman with small herd Of
cows can well afford to build a silo
and increase his herd and his profts

store of Howard w. Fithian. The
rooms are large and provide an excel

is contemplated.
Much interest has been manifest in
the preparation of the show and there
will be hundreds of all kinds of pho
tographs deposited with the commit
tee for exhibit.

the exhibition will be open to the pub
lie and the invitation is for everyone,
The rooms will be open each of the

What Has Happened
Price of white flour to the baker
has increased from $4.25 to $7.75

Price of rye flour has increased
from 81 to $3.50 a barrel.
The Effect
From 260 to $50 loaves of bread
are made from each barrel of flour.
The increase of $3.50 barrel on
white flour has increased the cost of
bread 1 Is cents on each loaf.
The Result
Bread will be cents loaf instead
of 5.
Rolls will be penny each instead
