What Causes tuberculosis.

DR.. John North of Toledo, o., is
working on the theory that tubercu.
losis may be due to lack of lime
in the system, as he says that while
tubercular germs are everywhere, they
only thrive in ripe soil and just what
is lacking in persons subject to tuber.
cular trouble gives food for thought.
He says that there is less tuber-
culosis among people living in arid re.
gions, and plants in such places have
more lime in their composition than
those growing in humid regions.

FIELD BEANS AS CASH CROP
Can Be Harvested. Stored and
Threshed Out in Winter When
There Ia Little Else to Do.

The New Hampshire department OF
agronomy has sent out a leafiet CALI
ing attention to the possibility of add.
ing field beans to the limited number
of cash crops of that state. The rea-
sons given are:
Beans work into the rotation as a
cultivated crop.
They are legumes, and therefore
do not exhaust the soil of it's nitrogen.
They will always sell for cash.
They can be harvested, stored and
threshed out to be sold in winter
when there is little profitable work
to do on the farm.
While beans viii sometimes make a
crop on pretty poor land, they will do
better on good land. Where an old
field is foul with witch grass, the sod
should be subdued and got rid of it's
weeds before planting it to beans.
In a general way, beans will do well
on soils which are not quite rich
enough for a good crop OF corn. They
thrive we'll on sandy loans, loans
and clay loans. The straw is a better
roughage than most hays. 1t is bet
ter than corn slower, but not quite as
good as clover hay. Those who throw
away bean straw or burn it are yer
looking a good sourc of gains for
tho live stock.

go to some reliable dealer, tell him ex-
actly what you want and then buy un-
der a full guaranty, with the priv
ilege of returning the animal at some
reasonable time, if he doesn't come
up to the mark.
Greater efficiency in the field is Sc
cured by matching horses according
to their working character, even if
they do not look alike.
The man who tries to keep a horse
in eve good working order on grasses
alone is attempting an impossibility.
Study the conformation and dispo-
sition of your mares as well as their
breeding, and learn, if possible, the
kind Of stallion they should be mated

KEEP DAIRY HEIFER GROWING
First Year Of Animals Life ls Most
important-GIve Them Skim Milk
in Moderate Quantities.
(By r. NJ. w~ASHBURN.)

'Ds ~ 49, 'N@'H'
The first year of & calfs life is the
most important with respect to its
growth. Unless animals are kept
growing during this period their final
development will be much retarded,
and the chances are they never will
reach the scale which their inheritance
would give them.
On the best regulated dairy farms
calves are born in the autumn and
early winter, and they should receive
skim milk in moderate quantities
through much, or all, of the summer
following birth. On farms having
hand separators there is no difficulty
in providing the sweet milk Tor calves,
morning and evening, but farmers
who %patronize whole-milk creameries
or who still skim by hand should re-
member that after the first few weeks
milk for calves should either be thor
oughly sweet or fully sour, that the
most dangerous condition is the half
sour stage. If milk is fed to calves
when it is in this changing condition,
it. is almost certain TO cause indi-
gestion. 1t should not be half sour,
nor sour one day and sweet the next,
but always one or the other.
Clean feeding pals must be used,
otherwise the germs of fermentation
and diarrhea will be brought to the

VALUABLE HORSE HINTS
Repose Almost as Essential as
Good Feed and Water.
Colt Is Not Safe for Women, Children
or inexperienced Men to Handle
Study Conformation and
Breeding of Mares.

All horses, when turned out in pas
ture, are more prone to take their rest
lying down than when confined in
stable stalla, says a writer in Inland
Farmer. But even when practically
free from human restraint and obser.
vatlon, or any likelihood of danger,
they seldom take more than an hour
each night in the recumbent position,
and that period is generally INDUCED
in about midnight.
A noted veterinarian says: There
are some curious facts regarding the
disposition of horses in the matter of
lying down. To a handwriting horse
repose is almost as much of a ece
sity as good food and water, but tired
as he may be, he is an animal very
shy about lying down. | have known
instances where stablemen declared
that the horses in their charge had
never been known to take rest in that
manner, but always slept standing.
In purchasing a general purpose
horse, which will be used when rail-
road, electric cars and autos are to be
met, don't buy a colt, because no
young horse is safe for women, chill
dren or inexperienced men to handle.
Don't buy until you have driven, or
