HOW SHOT ARE MADE.
And Why tho Pure Lead Has to BE
Tempered With Tin.

The manufacture Of shot, described
by o. G. Horn In Forest and Stream.
requires a high tower. perforated pan.
a tank OF water and tempered" lead.
Shot are made by dropping molten
lend from high point to the earth
The lead forms into globules just as
the raindrops do when they fall from
the clouds. Ordinarily we do not real.
he that raindrops are little spheres.
put under the proper conditions they
freeze, and we have hailstones. which
may be called shot made Of Ice.
In the making Of shot pure lead Is
melted and mixed with temper
that consists mainly Of tin. and then
poured into perforated pan or sieve.
The perforations vary according to
the size Of the shot to be made.
A temper Is mixed with the lead In
order to make the globules form when
the lead falls. If pure lead were used
Il would fall In the form Of little bars
instead of round shot.
In order that the globules may have
plenty OF time to form the lead must
full long distance. and SO towers are
built. The towers used to be made as
high as 200 feet and even more. but
modern towers are rarely over 100 feet
The perforated pan into which the
molten lead Is poured Is ut the top OF
the tower. and the globules OF lead fall
through the perforations into tanks Of
water at the bottom OF the tower The
water cools them and also prevents
them from Hattening out, as they

COST OF SPRAYING PER TREE
Difference In Profit on Sprayed and
Unspsayed Trees Given Out by
Nebraska Station.

In an orchard sprayed by the Ne
braska experiment station. the total
cost OF spraying per tree was twenty
four cents: the net income per tree
from the sprayed trees was $235. from
unsprayed trees. 81 cents. leaving an
income OF $50 more from the sprayed
than from unsprayed trees, or a net
incOLae above the cost of spraying of
$3.50 more on the sprayed than on the
unsprayed trees. In other cases the
difference between the profit on
sprayed and unsprayed trees has been
very much greater than this. The diff
ference. of course, will depend on the
prevalence of disease and insects.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of Agricuiturel
In popularity, cow-testing associa-
tons have grown rapidly In late years.
increasing about So per cent in the
United States in 1914. The prime pur-
pose OF an association IL to put dairy
ing on better basis and q eliminate
unproductiye cows. The average an
nual production Of the COWS of the
United States is approximately 1000
pounds Of milk. containing 100 pounds
OF butterfat, though there are many
herds with records of production av-
eraging more than 10000 pounds and
$50 pounds of fat. IL is the low aver
age production which increases the
dairyman's troubles. Chief among the
causes Of small milk flow are the fol-
lowing: The cows are not properly
fed; many OF them are not capable
of making a large production: the
farmer has no records and has little
idea Of which cows are making him q
profit and which are failing to pay for
the feeds they consume. Farmers are
some mysterious way. mainly through
the manure they produce, and thus
bring ultimate success.
The first cow-testlng association In
this country was organized at Ere
mont. Mich, in 1906. These associa-
and In 1914 totaled les; of these New
York had 20. Vermont rs. and Wis
consin "a, other states following with
much smaller numbers. Cooperative
cow-testing did not originate in this
country; indeed, the movement is still
In its infancy when compared with the
number of associations In Europe.
where there are between $500 and
5000.
There il nothing especially difficult
In the work of keeping records OF
cows, but IL Is usually more advan-
tageous to the farmer to hire the test
ing done than to devote so much time
| to the work himself. The tester hired
by the association usually has special
training In an agricultural college, his
experience running all the way from
a short winter course to full four
years work. A knowledge of feeding.
breeding, and her management is es-
| sential.
The expense of hiring a man to act
as tester varies, but 1t not far from
$3.50 a year, which is divided among
the members In proportion to the num-
Der of cows they own. The member
ship is necessarily limited to the own
ers Of about twenty-six herds of ten
or more cows each, or one herd for
each working day In the month Tho
Saint Mary's beacon. [volume] (Leonard Town, Md.) 1867-1983, 1915-06-17

cost to the members usually Is about
$3.50 COW a year when the herds con-
tain 10 cows or over. or sis for the
herd of fewer than ten cows.
The tester arrives in the afternoon
at the farm at which he is to work
for the next "a hours. When the milk
ing is done he weighs the milk given
by each COW and takes a sample TO
test OF butterfat- At feeding time
he weighs the feed given each COW,
whether she il milking or dry, and
also weighs the roughage that several
cows get. In order to know the aver
age weight given to each. This il re-
peated in the morning. Il IL as i'm
portant to have the records Of the feed
given dry cows as Of those that are
In milk. as the total cost OF feed for
the year should be balanced against
the total value Of the product to show
the profit or loss on feeding.
Each cows milk is again weighed In
the morning and a sample taken, TO
be mixed with the sample taken at the
nights milking; later In the day the
samples of milk are tested for butter
fat by the Babcock test. Thus the
tester Is fortified with the complete
data Of the production of milk and
butterfat by each COW in "a hours, as
well as the record of all feed con-
sumed. On this one days average he
calculates the amount of production
and cost of feed for each cow for the
month. 1t may be seen that an esti-
mate made in this way is not exact;
careful studies have shown, however,
that this method gives results that
are within 2 per cent of the actual pro-
duction OF the COW. The findings are
recorded in a herd book that Ii sup
piled to each member by the state ex-
pertinent station or by the United
States department of agriculture.
The tester is expected To follow the
local feed market and work out the
most economical ration for the dairy
men When the record books are COM
pleted, the tester loads his outfit In
his wagon and drives to the next farm
where he is TO work. arriving there in
time for the evening milking.
Thus. at the small cost of $50 .
COW. dairymen have learned that they
have kept many cows that did not pay
for the feed they consumed. They
have also learned that many cows in
their herds we're capable OF paying
for much more feed than they were In
the habit OF allowing them. that there
is a great difference in the feeding
values OF feed mixtures. and that
equally good mixtures can often be
purchased on the market at different
prices.
