That the Sabin bills were drawn up
In good faith, and were in no manner
designed as an attack on Judge Ben b.
Lindsey, was the assertion OF former
Judge Hubert l.. Shattuck. when he
learned of Judge Lindsey's charges
following the testimony in the How
land case that the package of money"
had been subscribed to hire a detect
i've in the campaign to push the bills
through the Legislature.
Shattuck said that he had drawn up
the bills in question at the request of
Representative Sabin, and that they
were simply intended to do away with
the friction and extra work sometimes
occasioned by the existence of sep
arate courts. 1t was misfortune he
said, If they had been made the ve-
hicle of personal attack on the Judge
of the Juvenile Court
"These bills" said Shattuck, would
put all of the jurisdiction involving
family relations in one place and do
away with all possibility OF clash
In jurisdiction, which sometimes arises
from one court granting a divorce
when there are children involved and
another court dealing with the chill

DRENCHING DROVE OF HOGS
Best Way Is to Drive Animals into
Pen Where They Will Have But
Little Room to Move In.

The quickest and easiest way to
drench a drove Of hogs is to drive
them into q small pen where they viii
have but little room to move about
To hold the animal while drenchilg
it q moose OF sash cord or quarter
inch rope can be placed around the
upper jaw, well back toward tbs
angles Of the lips, and the medicine
thrown into the back part Of the
mouth with q dose syringe As there
is danger OF hog breaking q syringe
It Is best to use a metal one Some
times when the drench is bulky and
the hog hard to hold. it is necessary
to elevate the head and raise the fore
feet on the ground. For this purpose
a pulley and rope wire stretcher is
recommended II should be hung In
the most convenient part OF the pen
and the animal secured in the usual
way by placing a moose around the
Jaw The end Of the rope is thrown
over the hook in the lower pulley and
the hog drawn up until II is almost
on the floor. II is best to wait TIL
the hog has become quiet, well under
control, before giving II the drenchs

cine getting into the air passages and

ENSILAGE REuSHED
BY FARM ANIMALS
Greatest Use of Feed Has Been
for the Dairy CoWs-Beef
Cattle Also Like 1t.

Ensilage is relished by most farm
animals. The greatest use made of it
has been for dairy COWS, thirty to fifty
pounds being fed each cow daily at the
North Dakota experiment station. 1t
can be fed to beef cattle too, but they
should be fed about half as much as
the dairy cattle. Young stock can be
fed ensilage in proportion to their size.
Some grain and hay should be fed
with ensilage. If the hay is alfalfa,
the grain can be decreased and in
some cases omitted.
Sheep relish a small amount of en-
alage, two to three pounds a day is
& good amount. Some feeders give as
high as five or six pounds.
Horses can be fed ten to fifteen
pounds of ensilage a day. It has a
good deal the same effect on them as
pasture. Hogs like a little ensilage
and especially so if it contains good
deal of corn. Ensilage is bulky food,
a good deal like pasture in its effect
on the animal It is important that it
be free from mold, as this causes
trouble. Horses should not be fed en-
silage that has been frozen, though
with other stock it seems to be all
right provided it is thawed out be-
fore feeding.
Three silos are in use at the North
Dakota experiment station.

CULLING FLOCK IN THE FALL
"2oo-Egg Hens Always Have White
Legs at End of Their PuIIet Year."
Says Professor Barrows.

Trap-nest records with many hum
dred fowls at the Maine station make
it possible to say positively that no
bird which has been a heavy layer
will have bright yellow legs at the
end Of the laying season. Prof. H. R.
Barrows says that ''200-egg hens al
ways have white legs at the end Of
their pullet year" The yellow color
ing matter in the legs and skin seems
to be used up in coloring the yoIks for
so many eggs, and thus the skin and
legs bleach out nearly white.
1t is worth while knowing this when
culling the flock and deciding which
pullets to keep over to use as breed
ers the next year. If the poultryman
has no trap-nest records the color OF
the shanks furnishes him one Of the
best indications he can have as to the
way in which these pullets have laid
during their first year of life.
His first selection should always. OF
course, be on the strength and con-
stitutional vigor. but after having
picked out the good, strong, healthy
birds he should then choose from
among those the ones which show the
whitest legs Poultrymen often make
a mistake on this point, frequently
practicing just the opposite-that is.
picking out carefully those which have
yellow legs which are the poorest lay
ers in the flock

SILAGE INCREASES
PROFITS IN LAMBS
Addition of SheIIed Corn and
Glover Hay Reduced Cost of
Gain at Purdue.

The addition of corn si1age to a
ration of shelled corn and clover hay
reduced the cost of gain on lot OF
lambs fed at the Purdue station 40
cents per hundred pounds. 1t also
slightly increased the selling value of
the lambs, and increased the profit
% cents per lamb. When the corn
silage was added to the ration, it was
found that slightly less of the shelled
corn was eaten. and at the same time,
the rate of gain on the lambs was
slightly decreased. The amount Of
hay consumed by the lambs also was
reduced when silage was added, 121
pounds of the silage reducing the hay
consumption or pound daily per
lamb.
Without silage, the ration of shelled
corn and clover hay produced gain
on proportionate1y the same quantity
Of grain as did the same ration with
silage added. Considerable hay was
saved, however, as it was found that
363 pounds of silage reduced the guam
tity of clover hay consumed in max
ing 100 pounds Of gain by 1919 pounds.

Ry R. G. wEATHERsToNE3

Ry r. G. WEATHERSTONE)
1t is well known that the progeny
from mature parents are superior to
those descended from young progeni-
tors, not fully developed. Bears and
sows, for breeding, should be kept in
a good, thrifty condition, but not fat.
The writer has always been troubled
to keep his breeding sows from be-
coming too fat, and consequently
narrowing a small number of scrawny
pigs.
I once took a large SOW to fatteD
for One-half the pork. I did not
know she was with pig and fed her
all the cornmeal and wheat middIings
she would eat.
Imagine my disappointment and vex-
alton when she had three little,
dwarfed pigs-not only smaller than
pigs usually are when first narrowed,
but emaciated.
Sows for breeding should not be al
lowed to run with the fattening hogs
fed on corn, but kept in pasture by
themselves and given plentiful
supply of slop, made of equal parts
of wheat shorts, cOrnmeal and wheat
bran.
Most young sows will breed when
three months old, if allowed to run
with boar, but eight or twelve
months is as young as it is iudicious
to breed them.
Not only this, but it stunts or
dwarfs the growth of such young
things permanently, and they never
attain good size.
The pigs from 1arge-bodied, old
sows will be more in number, and
frequently double the size of pigs
from young sows when farrowed-
and this with the same feed and care
and will frequently weigh so per

New breeds of poultry are brought

Introduction of each the claims made

The fact of the matter is that the
new breeds are the ones that the be-
ginner should usually keep away from
They are yet in the making, in a
way, and require the skill Of the ex-
pert breeder to develop into practical,
true-to-type fowls.
1t is with the well-established, long
bred and popular varieties that the
beginner should generally start The
new breeds are no better in any way
than the old ones and as a general
rule are not nearly so good in prac-

SUPPLY DARK NESTS
FOR LAYING FOWLS
Hens viii Dig Through Hay to
Bottom of Manager Rather
Than Use One in Light.

Hens always prefer a dark nest to
one exposed to light and will dig
through hay to the bottom of the
manger rather than use ready-made
nest in light.
A good style Of nest is made in Sec
lions OF four nests, twelve inches high
and 14x14, with just room enough be-
tween the nests and the wall for the
hen to enter. The top can be made all
in one piece, hinged at the inner edge
so that it can be lifted up when eggs
are gathered, but a better way is to
lay the top on loosely so that it can
be taken OF and the entire contents
OF all the nests dumped out at once.
The nests should be fumigated with
sulphur and also sprayed with kero-
sene at least once a month.
