DAIRY cow USED AS MARKET
Animal Will Pay High Price for Home
Grown Feeds-Farmer Permitted
to Improve Land.

That the profit from selling milk,
butter and cream is not the chief
profit in keeping dairy cattle is point
ed out by gentleman of wide expert
ence in the South. There is much
greater profit in selling homegrown
feed to the COW than in selling on a
poor market. Dat and vetch hay. corn
slower, silage, cOwpea hay and sOr-
ghum can be grown at a very low cost
and are among the best feeds for the
dairy COW. If the cow is good one
she will pay full market price for the
hay, and the farmer will not have to
bale or haul to market. Keep records.
charge the hay to the cows, and weed
out those that do not pay. Cheap milk
cannot be made unless the farmer
grows his own feed. Selling the cow
home grown feeds not only makes
cheap milk but permits the farmer to
improve his land by having larger
quantities of manure.-Inland Farmer.

TURNING UNDER COVER CROP
Sometimes Advisable to Follow Prae-
tice Early on Account Of Soil Be-
inc in Good Condition.

1t is sometimes advisable to turn
under q cover crop earlier on account
of the soil being in good condition,
whereas If put off for few days or
a week dry weather might prevent the
work being done as it should be.
When the land is to be planted to cot
ton it will be necessary to turn the
cover crop under earlier, regardless Of
the stage of growth. This will allow
few days for the land to settle and
to be gotten in proper condition for a
good seed bed. The pillow should be
followed closely with the harrow, to
pulverize the soil before the wind and
sunshine dries 1t out. Unless the soil
is full of moisture or there are pros
poets of an early rain, it is best to
run a roller over the land to firm 1t,
which will aid in holding the mois-
ture. The roller should always be
followed with the weeder or light
smoothing harrow to mulch the top
soil.

AVOID CHANCE OF INFECTION
Not Advisable for Farmer to Put
Money Into Hogs That Have Not
Been Previously Immunized.

(By w. p. SHULER, Department OF Vet
Urinary Medicine, Oklahoma A. and M
College. Stillwater.)
1t will not be necessary to vaccinate
hogs In order to insure them against
any possibility Of infection from an
immune breeding animal that you
might want to bring on your place.
Breeding herds that are immunized
are usually treated about weaving
time or, in other words, when they
are about two or three months old.
The possibility of transferring infec-
ton from the immunized process ex-
tends over a period of three or four
weeks. After that you can safely say
that immune breeding animals are free
from infection as a result of their
treatment so, If you purchase breed
ing animal six months or a year old.
1t would be safe proposition with
out extra precaution.
Immunization is becoming so COM
mon and thoroughly practical that I
would not for minute advise any
man to put money into purebred
hogs for breeding purposes that nave
not been previously immunized.

EARLY HARVESTING OF OATS
Cutting Early Solves Problem Of Dis
posing Of Late Maturing Crops
Aid to Glover.

Early harvesting of oats for hay is
the unusual practice suggested by the
farm crops department at Iowa state
college as solving the problem of dis
posing Of this crop.
As a nurse crop for clover or other
iegumes, the great objection is its late
maturity. II oats are cut for hay when
the grain Is In the milk stage and
properly cured. the hay secured Is re-
garded by many as nearly equal to red
clover.
remove the oats two or three weeks
earlier than usual, thus exposing the
young clover plants at a time when
the heat of the sun is less severe
This practice also leaves more mois.

By NJ. PURVIS.)

(By M. PURVIS)
Dairying is q confirming business to
be sure. 1t requires daily attention
and the work must be done with reg
ularity, each duty requiring attention
at practically the same hour, week
after week, rain or shine, Sunday,
Fourth Of July and Thanksgiving.
1t is this everlasting routine that
prevents great many from taking up
dairying as regular part of the farm
work. 1t is the American diStaste for
being bound down and hedged in that
keeps the dairy part of our farm work
very much in the background.
Notwithstanding this undesirable
phase of dairying, 1t has some advan-
tages which producing grain, hay or
live stock for market have not.
1t is business on which the opera
tor is able to count without much
danger of having his plans miscarry
on account Of wet or dry weather,
early or late frosts, or any other of the
things which SO often mar the pro-
jects Of the most careful husbandman.
With little forethought the dairy
man may be as free from worry about
the weather as any other man living.
Blow high or blow low the cows come
home and the consuming public is
ready to take all the butter that is
produced, or the creamery or cheese
factory is waiting to weigh in the milk
and distribute checks every month.
This is another advantage. The live
stock breeder must wait two, three or
five years for his cattle to get in
shape for market, the swine breeder
gets his money only once a year and
the sheepman is likely to have his
profits knocked away by tariff agita-
ton on big crop of wool in Australia,
or sudden panic among the 'preda-
tory wealthy"

pear, until the map of Europe looks
like a western landscape after a cy-
clone, but people must have milk, but
ter and cheese and the price gets a
little better every year. No dairyman
need worry about the result of the
election for Republicans. Democrats
and Socialists alike need the products
of the dairy or they will not feel that
they are getting what is coming to
them.
The money from the dairy comes
weekly, or at longest monthly, and 1t
is cash deal all the time. The prices
vary with the season little but they
run in lines that take, the same up
and down curves year after year.
Many dairymen are trying to find
the method which will allow them
to keep the largest number of cows
on a given acreage. A much better
object would be sought If they were
to try to secure the largest possible
number of cows which will produce
pound Of butter every day for ten
months of every year of their activi-
ties.
Farm dairying isn't the poorest
business in the world by good many
long marks, but American farmers
show a disposition to let the foreign
emigrant take the business and make
the money, which shows that Ameri-
can farmers are not always awake to
the most profitable part of farming.
Money every week and the farm
getting richer every year ought to be
an attractive proposition. We ought
to have more farm dairies and fewer
WORKOUT farms.
The dairyman who does not set
high mark, and test his cows regu-
larly and Systematically, will always
carry in the herd some cows which are
kept at a loss, to reduce the average
Of the herd.
