ABOUT THE DAIRY.

Each dairyman should select
his breed and stick to il.
Select the very best bull of the
chosen breed that it is possible
to get.
The COW that IS going to yield
a good return in milk must have
succulence in her ration.
Cheapening the cost of produc-
ton without lessening the same
is one way Of building up the
profits or really adding to the
price of a dairy article.
Broad minded Intelligence,
great good nature and innate
kindness are essentials in the
makeup of a successful dairy
man.

TRYING FARM HELP PROBLEM
Hired Laborer Should Be Moderately
Intelligent and Well informed
Keep Children on Farm.

The requirements of the farm in
the character of the labor employed
are changing radically. The labor to
be performed by the farmer should be
governed by extensive information and
considerable scientific knowledge A
successful farmer at the present time
may need considerable knowledge of
chemistry, of bacteriology, of econom-
ic entomology, of the pathology and
physiology of plants and animals; of
plant and animal breeding, of fungi
cides and insecticides, of the conser-
walton of soil moisture; of botany,
pomology, viticulture, horticulture, and
certainly much concerning the prac-
teal handling and marketing of his
products. The hired laborer does not
need to know 80 much. and yet he
should be at least moderately intel
ligent and well informed. With re-
gard to the future, the forecast is that
farm labor will not be recruited in
appreciate degree from the city. The
farmer would not need to get his
labor from the cities If he could hold |
the country population to the soil, and |
the recognition of the Importance of
retaining the children on the farm and |
of keeping country labor from migrat
ing to cities Is governing most of the
work by nation and state in behalf of
In addition to efforts to
promote economic improvement, many
agencies are at work upon the country
people to improve their home life, and
their social activities, which are al
ready beginning to count against the
unpleasantness Of country life and
in favor of making 1t attractive.

INFERTILE EGGS KEEP BEST
Large Poultry Plants Seldom Have
Male Fowl on Piace-Essentfai
to "Swat the Rooster"

(By ]. A. HELMREICH. Colorado Agr1-
cultural College.)
Many people think that the cocks
have to be with the hens in order to
get eggs. This is a mistake and has
been demonstrated as such by expert
ments and practice, for the large poul-
try plants seldom have a cock on the
place and their hens will actually lay
more eggs without the cocks around.
l do not advise you to kill or dis
pose Of valuable breeding stock, but
merely separate them from the hens.
When we stop to consider that there
is $600,000,000 worth of poultry sold
by our farmers annually, and that this
amounts to as much as the money re-
ceived for wheat or hay; that 8 per
cent Of all the eggs sold are lost
through careless handling, and that
large per cent Of this loss is due 70
the production of fertile eggs during
the hot months Of the year, it is easy
to see how essential it is to swat the
rooster"

MAKING F0UR-HORSE EVENER
Illustration Shows Arrangement Often
Desired at Flowing Time-One
Horse Worked In Furrow.

A four-horse eyener without side
draft is often wanted at blowing time.
We give here description of a good
arrangement of this kind furnished us
by Mr.. j. F. Krens, Woodville, Wis.
The cut will show how the eyener
is made, and the measurements are
as follows:
Two doubletrees of ordinary length,
a good tough stick of which to make
the long evener, two iron pulleys
which will let strong small link
chain work through them, two bolts to
go through the pulleys, and two strap
iron braces over the pulleys, will be
needed. The stick for the eyener
should be s feet inches long, and the
first pulley will be put on Z inches
from the right end of it, measuring to
center of pulley. Measure 15h

wear a suit which Is used for no 9TH
or purpose. The suit must be kept
clean and occasionally sterilized with
steam or by boiling in water. The
milking stool must also be clean, to
avoid soiling the mixers hands.
The small-top milk pail is a neces
sity in the production of clean milk,
as it presents only small opening
into which dust and dirt may fall from
the air or from the cows body. 1t has
been found by experience that the
use of this kind of pail greatly re-
duces the number of bacteria in milk
from average diaries. Many types OF
milk pals are for sale, but any tin
ner can convert an ordinary pail into
q small-top pail by the addition of
a hood.

SANITATION IN DAIRY HOUSE
Extreme Care and Cleanliness Should
Be Observed to Prevent Entrance
of Bacteria Into Milk.


Unless considerable care is taken
large numbers Of bacteria may find
their way into the milk during the
process Of milking. Cows should be
MIXED in clean, well-lighted stables.
After grooming and before milking,
the udders, TANKS, and bellies Of the
COWS should be carefully wiped with
damp cloth to remove any dust or
loose hairs which might fall into the
milk pail. Only those persons who
are free from communicable disease
should be allowed to handle milk OF

Cows affected with abortion disease,
long after they have seemingly recov-

now under observation has continued
to discharge such bacilli with her
milk without showing a symptom OF
disease for more than six years.

FEEDING sILAGE TO CALVES
YearIlng Animals Will Consume About
One-HaIf as Much as Mature Stock
Keep Free From Mold.

Calves may be fed silage as SOON as
they are old enough to eat it. 1t is
perhaps of greater Importance that the
silage be free from mold or decay
when given to calves than when given
to mature cattle. They may be given
all the silage they will eat up clean
at all times. Yearling calves will con
sumo about one-half as much as ma
ture stock; that is, from Is to 20 or
more pounds day. When supple
mented with some good leguminous
hay, little, If any, grain will be re-

A kOSkl OF TARRANT COUNTY,
TEXAS FILES SUIT AGAINST
THE GYPSY OIL CO., EFT AL, TO
CANCEL DEED.

A Koski of Tarrant County, Texas,
through his attorneys, Smith & Dun
away of Fort Worth, and Wadlington
& Wadlington of Ada, has filed in the
district court of this county a suit in
volving some valuable oil lands in
this county, and asks damages in the
sum of s10O,00O00, and all costs in the
case. The defendants named in this
suit are the Gypsy Oil Co., The Hum

and Harold Wallace.
Plaintiff alleges that in 1913, he,
together with his wife, were owners
of 12O acres of land in 32-3-3, plaintiff
further avers that on the 31st day of
May, 1913 he and his wife issued an
oil and gas lease to H. T. Staiti for five
years or as much longer as oil and
gas should be found, for one-eighth
royalty on the oil and 5000 per year for
each gas well produced, when used off
the premises; plaintiff alleges that at
the time the lease was made, that he
and his wife were mentally incapable
of transacting business on their own
account and relied upon the judgment
of one of the defendants who had
acted as their agent on previous oc-
casions For this and various other
reasons plaintiff prays the court that
the lease and likewise deed later
conveyed to r. J. Creel be cancelled,
that a receiver be appointed to admin
lister the property under the direction
Of the court and that the plaintiff be
awarded the sum of $100,000.00 and

a professed minister of the gospel

alleged preacher who, together with
several others of what the county at
torney called Holy Rollers" or "Holi-
