''l--'' RIVERS MCNEIL

Must Obey.

So much trouble was experienced
last year with persons who did not
understand the motor boat laws and
who, when arrested for violation. said
they did not know where they could
get copies of the laws, that Rivers
Mcneil, collector of customs. has in.
stituted q plan to give every motor.
boat owner O chance to get the laws
this year.
Mr.. Mcneil is sending to the post.
master of every town along the I'LL.
nois river and the Mississippi river
to the southern boundary Of the state
letters asking them to supply motor
boat owners with copies Of the act
which he will send to the post Offices.
Last season 100 boats In the rlv.
ers were boarded by the crews Of the
United States coast guard boats pa
trolling the rivers to enforce the law"
said Mr.. McNeill. II should much
prefer to supply motor boat owners
with copies of the regulations and the
pilot rules and thus prevent viola
tions rather than than impose pen.

where It was committed through ig.

NEEDS OF GROWING ANIMALS
Large Amount of Protein Should Be
Supplied as Substance Builds
Muscle, Hair and Hide.

A growing animal needs a large
amount of protein, for this substance
builds the muscle, hair, hoofs, horn
and hide. Fat is not so essential in the
life Of young animal.
The Wisconsin experiment station
has shown that in calf feeding two
pounds Of grain are equivalent to a
pound of butterfat, and is much
cheaper. Calves fed on skim milk may
not be rolling in fat, but in the pro-
duction of dairy animals this is not
necessary for thrift and vigor.
The colostrum milk is necessary to
cleanse the Calls digestive tract and
to stimulate digestion. The calf may
be taken away from its mother as
soon as born, provided 1t is fed the
whole milk from it's own mother or 1t
may be allowed to run with it's dam
for two or three days. At the
end OF two weeks gradually substitute
skim milk until the whole milk is en-
tirely displaced. Nine to twelve
pounds of whole milk is sufficient at
first and should be fed in several
feeds during the day. This may be
increased gradually until 20 pounds
of skim milk is being fed daily.

Device for Rakins Stones.

worth developing that we give full de-
tails. We found 3k-inch clear space
between teeth was too wide, and halv-
ing it by inserting more teeth made
the teeth too close. A clear space of
215 inches would be about right. The
teeth should be heavy enough to be
rigid. We used half-inch steel rods
and had so much trouble with the
teeth bending that we finally aban-
doned the use of the tool. The teeth
should have a length of eight inches
in the clear. We found trouble in ad.
justing the hitching to conform to
varying conditions of soil, the drag

We believe that drag made along the
lines indicated and provided with

practical tool for clearing ground of
small stones, provided the soil can be

be pretty expensive on lumpy ground.

WORK IN THE FARM WOODLOT
Location Will Depend Upon Various
Conditions-Forest Culture Re-
quires Intelligent Work.

Forest culture is as much of an art
as is corn culture. A good woodlot,
like a good corn field, is the result
of applying intelligent methods to
produce a full, valuable crop. A corn
field with fail spots, empty hills,
feeble stalks, and half-filled ears is
neither O. credit to the farm nor a
paying investment for the farmer. No
more is a woodlot half stocked with
inferior trees. When timber is cut is
the time of all times to apply forestry
The way in which the cutting is done
will determine what the subsequent
condition of the woodlot will be.
There is a difference between farm
woodland and the farm woodlot. Farm
woodland is farm land which has not
yet been cleared. Farm woodlot is
term which might best be used to
mean a part Of a farm permanently
devoted to timber production, under
a sound plan of farm management.
The size and the location of the wood
lot will depend upon various con-
siderations, of which the most i'm
portant are the home needs of the
farm, the character of the land, and
the present and prospective market
for material from the woodlot.

CLEANING UP FIELD STONES
Problem Of Vital Importance to Many
Farmers-Drap Made Along Lines
Shown Is Practicable.

How to get rid Of surplus held
stones with the least labor is a prob
lem Of vital interest to many farmers.
While clearing up a stony farm we
have tried out many ways Of handling
the work. At one time we built a spe'
cial tool for gathering up small stones,
saws a writer in Rural New Yorker. IL
was. in effect, an "A" drag. with the
wide opening ahead. The stones and
clods are left in windows about seven
feet apart. When hauling away the
windows the wagons can be loaded
from both sides A few years ago we
cleared an excessively stony field Of
seven acres at a cost Of $50 for the
time of the men employed. AS made
by us the tool was not entirely salts
factory; but the idea seems so well
