until they have become accustomed
to that kind of treatment more than
the refined and more delicately organ
lied breeds Of dairy cattle.
On the other hand the man who
has rich and luxuriant pastures and
keeps his herd up to very near their
full capacity at all times of the year,
and who Is producing milk FOR the
general market, faces a different propo-
sition. and will find that the Holstein
breed, or grades of that breed, the
best adapted for his dairy needs.
1t Is useless for me to continue to
present evidence In favor of keeping
better cows. But one thing worthy
to note Is the fact that the man who
has built up a profitable herd Is at
all times alert to secure better COWS
to increase his income.
On the other hand the man with
the Improbable herd has but little
ambition to inform himself in regard
to his business or improve the quality
OF his cows.
He does not believe in dairy litera-
ture, or that other cows might do bet.
ter on his farm than his own. This
class Of man is doing more to dis
courage the dairy business than any
other.
One of the most severe losses con-
nected with the dairy business is the
loss which comes from discarding I'M

Cows are sold for some reason and

MAIN ADVANTAGES
OF "HOGGING" CORN
Practice 10 Be Profitable Must
Be Rightly Managed-TriaIs
at Missouri Station.

(By L. A. WEAVER. Missouri Expert
ment Station)
1t will pay to hog down corn. This
has been shown by the Missouri agri
cultural experiment station and has
been done profitably by large num-
Der of feeders.
The main advantages are: D The
hogs make rapid and more economical
gains; (2) 1t saves the labor Of har-
vesting; 90 the manure is returned
to the land without loss and without
labor (4) the place Of feeding Is
more sanitary than the ordinary feed
lot; 60 the grain Is harvested with
out waste.
Eleven trials with hogging down
corn at the Missouri agricultural ex-
pertinent station have shown that
there is no better way OF finishing
hogs than by allowing them to do
their own harvesting To be profit
able, however, the practice must be
rightly managed. The hogs should be
given access at one time to what they
will clean up in ten days or two weeks
This insures fresh forage and they
will clean 1t up we'll as they go. A
cheap. efficient. temporary fence Is
made with woven wire.
Get the hogs on full feed OF new
corn before turning them into the
field by cutting few stalks at first
and increasing gradually. The corn Is
in good condition to turn into when
the dent has just formed in the
kernel
For best results the hogs doing their
own harvesting should receive somt
feed in addition to the corn. This
supplement may be supplied with
crops like rape, soy beans, etc, which
should have been grown In the corn
field that is to be harvested. II no
such crops have been planted small
amount OF some feed like tankage
should be fed.

(By w. MILTON kELLY)
There is no denying the fact that
too many dairymen are carrying their
business at a loss and occasional in
stances of a marked success in the
business appear to indicate that dairy
ing can be put on a paying basis.
There are many things that COM
mend dairying to the farmer, among
which may be named a certainty Of
setting good prices for the products
Of the farm and the elimination Of the
speculative element which surrounds
growing and marketing other prod
ucts.
To conduct dairy farm at profit,
we must feed good cows. They should
be good individuals and selected from
the breed which is best adapted to
the particular branch Of dairying that
is being made our specially and to
the conditions of our farms.
No one breed or type is adapted to
all conditions, else there would be
little need for so much diversity of
size, conformation and quality of prod
uct.
For the economical production Of
butter and cream tor Of very rich
milk that is suitable for fancy trade)
it is best to keep Jerseys or Guern-
seys. that is, providing, Of course, that
we will give them the care and treat
ment they are accustomed on their
native land.
Jersey and Guernsey cows produce
less milk solids, other than fat this
enabling them to turn larger proper
tions of their food and energy into the
production Of the desired product
than cows of breeds which yield a
larger quantity of milk deficient in
butterfat.
On certain farms where the pas
ture is scant or where the land is
rough and rolling, ana where sum-
mer dairying is practiced, that cow
which is capable of doing the best
work under such conditions would be
the best adapted to the economy Of
the dairy.
For such a farm the man would
best select the Ayrshire, or high
grades of that breed. They have been

1t Is therefore no wonder that the
greatest interest was shown by those
who attended the Soil Products Ex-
position held at Denver short time
ago, when 1t was demonstrated that It
was not only In quantity that Western
Canada still occupied the primary po-
sition. 1t was there that Western
Canada again proved its supremacy.
In wheat, 1t was early conceded that
Canada would be a winner. and this
was easily the case. not only did It win
the big prize. but it carried OF the
sweepstakes. What. however. to those
who were representing Canada at this
exposition. was of greater value proba-
bly,, was winning first and second prize
for alfalfa. The exhibits we're beauti-

SIMPLE MATTER TO
STORE The CABBAGE
CheapIy Constructed Bank or
Hillside Cellar Is Only Store
house Necessary.
(By E. A. KIRKPATRICK, Minnesota
Experiment Station)

Experiment Station)
Cabbage storing Is rather simple
and easy. The shrinkage is small. A
cheaply constructed bank or hillside
root cellar, or a basement under al
most any farm building, Is the only
storehouse necessary This should not
be too dry and should be place
which could be kept at a temperature
of above 40 or 80 degrees In the early
part Of the season. This Is often &C.
complshed by opening the doors to let
in the cool night air and closing them
to keep out the warmer air during
the remainder OF the day. Later, Of
course, the doors must be kept closed
continuously.
In storing, most growers place the
heads in cellar with all leaves and
roots attached. Many market garden
ers have a better plan. They cut on
the stalk as though preparing the
heads for market. but leave two or
three rough leaves to protect the more
tender parts. They then pack in or
binary cabbage crates and rack these
crates up. leaving gangway every
third or fourth tier for air circula-
ton.
This work is not -tlcularly diff
cult, and will certainly pay the grow
er well II 1t increases the selling price
Of his production eight or tenfold. For
the last few years 1t has been market
ed and harvested at from S. to $3.50
a ton. The purchaser has stored 1t and
or $50 n ton.
