ALCOHOL AND MEMORY.

Professor Vogt of the University of
Christiania made tests upon himself to
determine the effects of alcohol upon
memory. He daily committed to men,
ory 25 lines of Greek poetry and re-
corded the number of minutes re-
quired to learn them. On the days
when he took as much alcohol as one
would get in from one and one-half to
three glasses of beer, it took him on
the average IS per cent longer to
learn the Lines than when no alcohol
was taken. Six months later, when he
reviewed and relearned the same
lines, he found that the lines learned
on the alcohol days required more
time for relearning.

TREATMENT FOR NAIL WOUND
Take No Chances, as Lockjaw or Per-
manent Lameness May Result
Advice Of an Expert.

1t is better to be safe than sorry
When n horse steps on nail take no
chances. Remove the nail as soon as
possible and thoroughly cleanse the
wound. When horse limps investi-
gate the cause. This is the advice of
David Gray, assistant in animal hus-
.bandry in the Kansas state agricultural
college.
"The removal of the nail can easily
be accomplished with an ordinary claw
hammer, a small block of wood being
used as fulcrum over which to pry,"
says Mr.. Gray. "If the nail Is not too
large n pair of pliers is suitable for
this work.
"If not cared for Immediately the
wound may cause lockjaw or perma-
nent lameness. For cleansing the
wound syringe and warm water may
be used if care Is taken to cleanse
thoroughly. The best method is to ap-
ply literally any coal-tar product, such
as creolin. as it is effective in breaking
up the infection. If nail wound is
given immediate and careful attention
the life of horse Is usually safe"

Many holdings in Brazil which have
been abandoned for nearly century
are now being worked and made pro-

where there Is now settled colony of
foreign agriculturists, and that of the
Benedictine monks. worked by the
monks themselves, are among these.
The ancient industry of sugar planting
has been revived to an extent never be-
fore known in some states. Many of

PLANS FOR FARM BUILDINGS
Landscape Architect ofIowa state Col.
iege Has Unique Scheme for lo-
eating Structures.

Just as in game Of checkers, II,
in your farmstead planning, you take
little time to look before you move,
It's going to save a lot of regrets and
money later on, advises r. ]. Pearse,
landscape architect with the agricul-
tural extension department nt Iowa
state college. Mr.. Pearse has unique
scheme Of laying out plans for locat-
ing new farm buildings.
In planning fall or winter building,
he says, make plan of your farm
stead; measure up the existing build
ings, fences, drives, tanks and silos
and locate them on plan drawn to
scale, 20 feet on the ground repre-
sented by one inch on paper.
Next, cut out Of pasteboard the plan
Of the buildings you want to build,
drawn to scale. Place these on the
plan of the present buildings and move
them about until their location satis-
fies your conditions as well as possible.
Try different locations for the build
ings; ask yourself questions ana al
ways locate with definite reason in
mind.
1t is remarkable how many mistakes
can be remedied in this manner be.
fore they are made. Locating on Il
plan also gives bird's-eye view of the
whole place.

Fine Guernsey Cow.

Of this In addition during the day. If
hay of this class is fed, it is all right
to feed considerable quantity of corn
for grain.
The feeds which are generally fed
in this section may be divided into two
classes. The first includes those lack
Ing in protein. They are used main
ly to produce fat and do not have pro-
tein enough for milk production. In
this class we have corn, corn fodder,
timothy hay, straw, millet and sor-
ghum. The second class of feeds In
cludes those which contain more pro-
ten to supply the food necessary to
produce milk. In this class we have
clover, cowpea and alfalfa hay, bran,
pats, cottonseed and linseed meal. A
good daily ration will include feeds
from both of these classes and it is
impossible to make Il suitable ration
by feeding those in the first class only.
A good ration for cow producing
rom "a to % pounds of milk per day,
would be all she would eat of clover
Or cowpea hay and for grain from five
to six pounds corn, and from three to
i've pounds bran or oats. Another fair
;y good ration for an ordinary cow is
all she will eat Of alfalfa or cowpea
lay and eight to twelve pounds of
corn. Still another would be clover
hay, as before, corn six to nine pounds,
and cottonseed meal, two pounds per
1ay. These rations will be improved
in every case by feeding corn Silage.

BEWARE OF SNAKES.

Beer is the diamond rattler of the
liquor snake family. Some think it is
innocent, while in fact it is more
vicious than the rest. This is one rea-
son why it bites so many. There can
be no such thing as n harmless solu-
ton of poisonous ingredient, no mat
ter whether that poisonous ingredient
is placed directly in the solution or en-
gendered there by Preventative proc
esses. Beer contains about 3k per
cent alcohol. This amount Of alcohol
is always poisonous to human tissue,
the rapidity of destruction being meas
rred by the quantity taken. The
brewer reduces the percentage of alco-
hol in beer to quiet the alarm of his
customer and then increases the vol
ume of the drink without apparent de-
lection. The drinker then, plays his
money for his share of imaginary sun
shine on the basis of the old familiar
game: Head up. the brewer wins; tail
up, the drinker loses.
The opinions of the medical profess
sion on the liquor traffic ten years or
more ago are practically worthless, be-
cause those opinions were based on
popular beliefs since known to be
false. Our opinions now are based on
unanSwerable scientific demonstra-
tions.-Dr. r. e. Minahan, Green Bay,
Wis.

CLOVER AND ALFALFA FEEDS
Farmer With Supply Of Those TWO
Crops Has Sure Thing In Dairy
Part of His Industry.

The farmer with dairy cows who
has a supply of clover or alfalfa has
n sure thing in the dairy part Of his
industry, if he will use the feed right
and take good care Of his cows this
winter. A daily ration Of ten pounds
of alfalfa and the same amount OF
clover hay and about 80 pounds of
silage, along with such grain feed as
cob and corn meal he can make with
his own farm mill; about ten pounds
daily in three feeds per day will be
sufficient.

AUTHORITIES ON BEER.

Beer comes next to brandy as a
poison drink. 1t limits the capacity
and lowers mind, soul and body. The
soldier who abstains altogether is the
best man.-Count Won Haesler, Late
Commander of the Sixteenth Army
Corps, Germany.
There is no justification for calling
beer "liquid bread" A glass of heavy
beer costing 25 pfennigs has no more
nourishment than piece of cheese
costing one pfennig. Beer is
not the harmless drink it is supposed
to be.--From German Army Pamph-

"This statement Is not the result Of
guesswork or n question of antithis or
antithat on moral grounds. 1t is based
on experiments made by an eminent
scientist, Professor Kraepelin of Wen

and applied them to many individuals
before and after they have taken al
coholic liquor. His findings have been
duplicated by other scientific men.
"In all cases the ability to add, to

WHAT IS INTEMPERANcE7

lntemperance does not necessarily
mean only obvious and palpable
drunkenness. From the very moment
in which alcohol has disturbed the
healthy exercise of the mental facul-

that moment has there been guilt of

FEED COW IN WINTER
important That Milk Flow be
Kept Up in Cold Weather.
oairyman Who Gets Best Results
Feeds Glover, Alfalfa or cowpea
Hay for Roughness-
Corn In Ration.

'by Z. II. ECKLES, Missouri College of
Agriculture.)
The best results with mich cows
demands that the milk flow be kept
up during the winter as well MS dur
ing the remainder of the year. A herd
mat Is allowed to drop in this particu-
lar when winter comes on not only
lowers its profit at that time, but Is
hard to bring back when winter Is
over Reports received by the dairy
department of the Missouri agricultur-
al experiment station show that aver
age cows In the best-managed herds of
the state often produce two or three
times as much butter during the year
as does the average dairy cow of the
state. This difference results largely
from the fact that these herds continue
high in their milk production during
the winter.
A good milk flow results largely from
careful feeding, although shelter and
other phases of management are also
important. The man who is getting
poor results is usually feeding timothy
hay, corn fodder, and corn, and per-
hapS not enough even of these The
man who is getting good results has
learned that such a ration will not
enable n COW to produce milk enough
to make it profitable. 1t is not neces-
sary to buy large quantities of expen-
Sive feed to make Il good ration, as it
can all be grown on the farm. If the
proper ration Is not at hand, however,
it will usually pay to buy something
suitable, or possibly trade some of the
feeds on hand for others which will
give better results.
Man Who Gets Results.
The man who gets good results with
cows feeds clover, alfalfa, or cow
pea hay for the roughness, takes care
that the cows have plenty Of it, and. if
he has some corn fodder, feeds some
