IMPORTANCE OF MILK HOUSE
difficult to Properly Care for Dairy
/ Products in Summer Without
! Suitable Building.

During the hot weather 1t is almost
smpossible to care for dairy products
on the farsa without suitable milk
house. o. E. Reed of the Kansas Ag-
ricultural college offers the following:
Milk must be produced under sanl-
tary conditions, and to do this the milk
house should be either separate from
the dairy barn or arranged in such a
way that odors from the barn do not
get TO it.
A 10 by 12-foot milk house is g. good
size for the average farm. 1t should
be built with a cement floor and have
Ia drain at the center to carry away
THE waste. The equipment should con.
sist of a refrigerating tank, 80 by 81
inches, inside measure. This will &C.
commodate four milk cans. There
should also be a cooler, aerator, wash
and separator.
: A. windmill on the side nearest the
refrigerating tank will pump cold wa
ter from the we'll into one corner Of

ARE. YOUR cows EFFlCIENT7
Milk Scales and Babcock Tester Es-
sential in Conducting Successful
Dalry-Discard Boarders.

Putting the efficiency test to cows
with the milk scales and the Bah
cock tester is one of the essentials
of conducting successful dairy. When
feed is high in price farmer cannot
afford to have boarders in his dairy
barn who eat up more in feed than
their milk yield is worth. The Bah
cock test will show these delinquent
COWS in their true light, and the milk
scales will put the clincher on the
argument. Testing cows will give
some farmers big surprise. Some
time the COW that looks like the poor
est creature in the lot is the best
butterfat producer.
Cow testing associations among
dairymen afford the most economical
use of the Babcock tester and the
scales.

DAIRY NOTES

Regularity in feeding pays.
The more the study, the greater the
success in dairying.
: The difference is in the COW, rather
than the feed or mixer or the churn.
The farm separator is too good, a
stepmother for the calf to get along
without
The more a man appreciates the
maternity of the dairy cow the better
dairyman he is.
| Immediately after milking, strain
sthe milk from the pail through three
Ithicknesses of cheese cloth.
Some COWS not only do not make
a profit but are kept at loss, as
they do not give enough milk to pay
for their feed.
II is not hard for a dairy farmer
to sleep well on cold winter nights
when he has a silo full of corn and
barn full of hay.
Grain and feed marketed through
the butter mold and the cream ca
will generally bring top prices, Il;
matter how the market may be fc'
your grain and feed.

WHITEWAsH FOR THE TREES
Excellent Protection Afforded to Bark
From Sunburn and Borers-
Keeps Rabbits Away.

Whitewash is an excellent proteo
ton to the bark from both sunburn
and borers. 1t is particularly valu
able for young trees, as after trees
reach a good size the branches gen.
orally become sufficiently large and
the foliage sufficiently thick to shade
the bark and prevent the injury that
the hot sun would otherwise do:
The best time to apply the white
wash is in the early spring, or before
the sun has become too hot and yet at
q time when the danger of heavy rains
washing off the lime is passed. 1t is
not well to delay too long or the sun
burn may occur in clear weather be-
tween rains.
There are dozens Of whitewash reci,
pes, all with merit, some more dur
able than others, and durable white
wash is generally to be desired. For
fruit trees a whitewash can be made
by the addition of tallow, which is
durable and also protection against
rabbits. Such wash can be made
with 80 pounds of lime, pounds OF
tallow and S pounds of salt. The salt
is dissolved in the water used in
shaking the lime and the tallow added
to the hot mixture, which is thinned
to the desired consistency before using.
Spoiled fat or grease Of any kind
can be substituted for the tallow and
the amount can be increased If de.
sired. II there is danger of attract
ing animals by the salt, 1t can be left
out.

Other injurious lnSeStS'
recognize them as friends. Thus many
of these helpful little insects are de-
stroyed, when they should be carefully
protected
One of the most conspicuous ex-
amples in history of controlling pest
by means of lady-beetles occurred in
California some twenty-five years ago.
An Australian insect known as the
f1uted or cottony cushion scale ap-
peared in California on orange trees
and spread so rapidly over the state
that the extensive orange growing in
dustry was threatened By request.
Mr.. Albert Koebele was appointed
agent of the United States to attend
the Melbourne exposition, and while
in Australia paid special attention to
searching for the insect enemies OF
the fluted scale. A lady beetle was
found feeding upon the scale and
specimens were collected, and five
separate lots altogether about 500
specimensl were brought from Aus
tralia to California and placed upon
the scale-infested trees. The lady
beetles multiplied and their progeny
were soon transported to each orange
growing section. In few years the
cottony cushion scale had been
brought under complete control by the
Australian lady-beetfe; it has never
since done much damage on the Pa
cific coast, and the orange industry
still fourishes.
In less striking manner and on a
smaller scale our native lady-beetles
are continually demonstrating their
ability to clean up shrubs, trees and
even orchards which were severely at
tackled by plant lice. There are about
25O different kinds of lady-beetles in
this country.

this as occasion warrants. He esti-
mates that the inferior grade adapted
to the manufacture of soap would cost
a shade less than four cents a pound,
while refined article suitable for
table use can be put on the market at

FRIENDS OF PLANT GROWERS
81 ady-Bugs" Feed Upon PIant-Liee,
Scale insects and Other Pests
Entitled to Protection.
(By w. E. BRITTON.)

The beetles commonly known as
lady beetles, lady BIRDS" "lady-bugs'
or plant-louse beetles, are among the
very best friends of the farmer or
plant grower, because they feed in
both larval and adult stages upon
plant-lice, scale-insects, and the small
larvae and eggs of other and larger
noxious insects. DR.. S. A. Forbes ex-
amined the stomach contents Of 80
specimens, and found that one.fourth
of their food was composed of plant
lice; though they ate some vegetable
food, such as pollen and spores OF
fungi, a greater portion of their food
consisted of insects. :.
Though many persons are more or
less familiar with lady-bugs, some. are
not acquainted with their habits or
life histories, and do not, therefore
