The dummy" will be brought into
use by Coach Anderson at the local
nail park tomorrow morning and a
large crowd of rockies is expected to
be out for a workout. IT sure is a
strange thing how the rockies are still
coming out after those workouts they
have been through in the past week
They are still coming, however, and
probably will keep the coach busy
right up to the first game. The coach
probably is saving himself hard work
in the coming years, for they certain
ly show signs of developing some
mighty good football men. Tackling
the dummy is good work for all the
men and a scrimmage probably will
come off soon.

UNIFORM COLOR IS DESIRED
ColorinC Should Be Added Just Before
Churning MISUNDERSTANDING
Is Undesirable.

A uniform color in the butter from
one season to the other is desirable,
hence during the winter when the
cows are getting dry feed little col
oring should be added. Too much col
oring, however, Is very undesirable.
When coloring Is used 1t should be
added just before the churning begins.
Stopping the churn at the proper
time has much to do with the quality
of the butter. 1t should be stopped
when the butter Is In the form of
granules, about the size of a kernel of
wheat or trifle larger. When the
butter Is churned to too small gran
ules many of them will go through the
buttermilk Strainer and will cause
more or less loss. Overchurning is un-
desirable because the butter will retain
considerable buttermilk, which is diff
cult to remove and which also tends to
cause the butter to deteriorate faster.
AS soon as the churning has been COM
pleted, the buttermilk should be drawn
off.

BLACKLEG IS TO BE AVOIDED
Infectious Disease Usually Attacks
Cattle Between Ages Of Six
Months and Two Years.

The infectious disease known as
blackleg usually affects cattle between
the ages of six months and two and
one-half years. 1t gains entrance to
the tissues through small wounds on
the skin.
A swelling occurs beneath the skin
on the headquarters, the shoulder, or
the lower portion of the neck. If the

bloody fluid flows out. The carcasses
of dead animals should be buried or

should be disinfected.
