KEEP THE COWS CLEAN
Pure Milk Cannot Be Secured

Curry Comb and Brush as Essential In

Stalls Every Day.

The curry comb and brush are Just
as essential to the health. comfort and

sanitary condition at all times.
BY the use OF good stanchions the
cows are kept much cleaner than where
they are simply tied with a rope or
halter, as by the use OF stanchions the
cows are not able to back of and lie
down in the manure, as they do with
other methods OF stabling. Straw is
usually cheap and plentiful on most
dairy farms. and it does not pay to
neglect to bed the COW well. The bed.

Numerous letters have been re

cornroot insects, viz, the corn root
worm and the corn rootaphis. IL is
evident that these insects are more or
less abundant in all of the corn-grow-
ing states OF the Mississippi valley.
The corn rootworm has destroyed
millions of dollars worth OF corn dur

and yet it is one of the easiest species
OF insects to control, when once the
farmer becomes acquainted with its

class, II is useless to attempt to hold
It in check by the application Of poi

therefore. the more evident IL becomes
that the application of good. up-to-date

AS the larvae do not feed upon any
thing but the corn roots, II is evident
that II a regular rotation OF crops is
practiced. so that corn Is grown on
the same soil only once or twice in
three or four years, there will be no
chance for the insects TO increase.

the land to be rough all winter If the

In the early spring plowed and
disked again and planted a crop that
needs cultivation. so that by setting
time in the following spring the
strawberry plants could be safely set
out. This cannot be done for good re-
suits before. because OF the quanti-
ties OF white grubs found In soil
OF this nature. Most of these grubs
were destroyed by the winter and the
