! A GOOD HERD is
NOT BUILT UP
IN A SINGLE SEASON


The importance of being thoroughly
prepared with sires for the breeding
season in all lines of stock cannot be
overes timated at this time, nor can
this matter be treated lightly and
W tn a feeling of indifference. The
calf produce of next year means much,
either for or against the improvement
of the herd A good herd is not built
up in single season, though it may
be given an advantage in one season
by the use of a valuable sire that will
can be traced for generations to fol
! low.
1t is now in the heighth of the breed
! ing season for the common farmer
with his herd of cows. In fact, on the
majority of farms the cattle stock are
bred in all months of the year. Most
cattle owners who handle breeding
stock want the calves to come in the
/ spring after the grass starts. The late
/ spring or early summer is very &C
ceptable time. One of the greatest
opportunities for this class of farmer
is in the aged bull class, comprised OF
animals of merit as producers that
cannot longer be of service in the
herds where they have proven their
worth
The disposition among herd owners
to select the young bull, yearling or
calf that has not had an opportunity
to demonstrate his worth as sire
seems to prevail. The old BULL though
a known producer of excellent calves,
is too frequently passed by as not de
sirable. 1t will be found that when
the breeding value of the bulls of the
country is closely noted very small
per cent of those in use can be classed
as high-quality breeders and deserv-
ing a lifelong lease as sires in the
good pure-bred herds of the country.
1t is in this class OF bull, however, that
a number of excellent animals of good
serviceable age may be had and at
prices that will justify the purchaser.
Herd bulls having served their pc
Rod of usefulness in a good herd have
left the evidences of their breeding
quality. Here is the best proof OF the
worth of the animal as sire. Take
a close inventory of quality in the
COW herd; compare it with that of your
own herd, and if the produce is sat
isfactory you then have a pretty cor
rect key to the breeding qualities OF
the bull you buy.-Twentieth Century

THE DAIRYMAN

Afte- the cream has been produced
and keot in the best of condition it is
still possible through carelessness or
ignorance to spoil the butter.
1t is almost impossible to make a
satisfactory churning in cold room.
Wash the churn and all dairy uten-
sils as soon as the butter has been
cared for.
Regularity in feeding and milking
will go a long way toward making
dairy work successful.
THE heifer that is cared for and
handled gently throughout her entire
life will need little breaking in when
it comes time to milk her.

THE CARE
OF THE
YOUNG CHICK

Take core of the young chick, from
the time it is Matched until it is sold,
is bound up in the one word com
fort" The normal amount of heat
clean quarters, good, fresh air with
plenty of room and exercise-these
are the essential requiremnts, and
they must be supplied Good breeding
has more to do with healthy chicks
and normal growth than good incuba
ton. Many persons can hatch large
numbers of chicks, but comparatively
few can raise them successfully. The
experienced breeder begins long be
fore the Matching season to prepare for
the management of his growing stock
by the careful selection of breeders.
Labor and feed will avail little or
nothing if the chicks do not inherit a
strong, vigorous constitution This
quality is entirely dependent upon the
age and condition of the breeding
stock. Encouragement and failure are
sure to follow where immature pull
let's, diseased hens, or hens of low vi
tally are used as breeders. Only
strong, vigorus hens, which have
passed their first year as layers should
go into the breeding pens. The eggs
from such hens which have been
mated to large, healthy cockerels,
should be gathered carefully and kent
in a temperature of not more than 90
degrees, and so will not do any harm
The. sooner the eggs are incubated
after being laid the better.

best individuals from the breed will
make better progress and get more

Fowls can stand almost any amount

cold, damp air must not be permitted

principal causes of colds and roup.

CHAPTER XVIII.

Tho Astrologers Tale.
N RIDNIGHT found Kent in his
NH hotel room. A knock brought
wi him to the door.
Letter for you," announc-
ed the messenger boy.
What Preston Jax had to say was,
first. in the form of a very brief note:
second. in the shape of formidabl,
looking document. The note began
Esteemed SIR concluded Yours re-
morsefully" and set forth in somewhat
exotic language that the writer, fear
ing lapse of courage that might con-
fuse his narrative when he should
come to give it, had "takcn pen in
hand to commit ii t, writing and
would the recipient kindly pardon
haste?' Herewith twenty-one typed
pages.
Quite enough said Chester Kent,
and dived into the turbid flood of
words. And behold! AS he turned so
to speak. the corner of the narrative
the current became suddenly clear.
The reader ran through it with in
creasing absorption. Preston Jax,
whose real name was John Preston,
had, after rebelliOus boyhood, run
away to sea, lived two years before
the mast. picked up a smattering of
education. been assistant and capper
for magnetic healer and had finally
formulated system of astrological
prophecy that won him a slow but in
creasing renown.
This Astraea affair looked good
from the first" So began Preston
JaN's confession, as beheaded and
stripped down by its editor. 1T looked
like one of the best. You could smell
money in it with half nose. Her first
letter came in ON a Monday, recollect.
Irene, my assistant, had put the red
pencil on it when she sorted out the
mail to show it was something special.
But don't get her into this, Professor
Kent. If you do it's all off, jewels and
all. Irene has always been for the
straight star business and forecast
game and no extras or side lines. Be
sides, we were married last week.
"She quoted poetry, swell poetry.
First off she signed herself An Adept
I gave her the Personal No. and fol-
lowed it,up with the Special Friendly
No. s. Irene never liked that No. 5.

servedly."

Jax.
Nothing that would be so wise. So
do not try. I shall want you to come
to Martindale Center on call. Pack
up and be ready. Come, Mrs. Blair.
Remember, Jax, fair play, and we
shall pull you through yet"
In the taxi Marjorie Blair turned to
Kent. "You are very wonderful
person." she said-Kent shook his
head-"and, l think, very kind one"

garb contributed. All the signs of the
zodiac had lent magnificence to the
long, black, loose robe with gaping
sleeves which he wore. Mrs. Blair
noted with vague interest that it was
all hand embroidered.
With rhythmical motion of arms
and hands he came forward. perform
ed spreading bow of welcome and
drew back. putting his hand to his
brow as if in concentration of thought.
Marjorie Blair felt an unholy desire to
laugh. She glanced at Professor Kent
and to her surprise found him exhibit
ing every evidence of discompOsure.
Stupid of me-" he muttered in apol-
ogy. Gets on ones nerves, you know.
Awesome and all that sort of thing
fussing with the stars"
Fear nothing" said Jax. "The star
forces respond to the master will Of
him who comprehends them. Madam,
the date, year, month and day Of your
birth, if you please?"
March 10, 1885," replied Mrs Blair.
Propelled by an unseen force, a celes-
tial globe mounted on nickeled stand
ard. rolled forth. The starmaster
spun it with practised hand. Slowly
and more slowly it turned until, as it
came to stop, ray of light, mystera-
lation.
'YOnder is your star" declared the
astrOlOgist. "See how the aural light
seeks it,"

monocle. Weird, you know! Quite

'Sh-h-h-h" reproved Preston Jax.

higher stellar mysteries. Madam, your
life is pathway between happiness
and grief. Loss. like a speeding comet,
has crossed it here. Happiness, like
the soft moon glow. has beamed upon
it, and will again beam. in fuller ef-
fulgence."
With beautifully mOdulated intona-
tons he proceeded, while one of his
visitors regarded him with awe struck
reverence, and the other waited with
patience-but unimpressed, so the ora
tor felt. by his gifts. His voice sank,
