but we are hardly in the kindergarten
class. We are feeding too many cat
tie ticks, but even above the quaran-
tine line there is not enough dairying.
We need more pure bred dairy bulls,
Jersey, Holstein or Guernsey, and more
pure bred cows. The farmer who
wants general purpose cow should
use the Shorthorn. But any COW must
be properly fed if she is to give much
milk. Does every farmer have rye
seeded for winter pasture? 1t is not
too late now Bran and cotton seed
meal should be a part of the milk
cows daily ration from now until next
April or May. It will pay. She needs
green stuff, rye, clover or alfalfa or
Bermuda or orchard gress, all winter
in additio INTO other feeds. Take care
of the milk COW and she will take care
of you.
The small boys and girls of Arkan-
sas need more good, clean milk to
drink. Every child below fifteen
should drink a pint of milk a dav. Let
us encourage the use of more milk, en-
courage the production of more milk
and let us educate for cleanliness. The
extension division of the University
Of Arkansas and United States de-
partment of agriculture, Fayetteville,
has bulletins on dairying for free dis
tribution. See county agricultural

BETTER FARMING
HINTS.
FEED FOR PIGS.

Stock raising on the ranges can
not much longer be PORTABLE. Ark
ansas farmers are seeing the neces-
sity of lots and sheds and pastures if
they are to make money from hogs.
It will be only few years until the
"razor back" will be curiosity. The
Pig club boys are driving it out the
state.
Arkansas farmers want hogs that
will weigh two hundred pounds or
three hundred pounds at from six
to eight months. That means first,
pure bred boars, next pure bred sows,
then spring and summer pasture, rape,
peas, soy beans, peanuts, clover and
Bermuda. Then it means decent and
clean lots and sheds and the right
kind of feed for fattening. Corn alone
is hot n profitable feed.
Corn and clover, or alfalfa or peas
or peanuts are fine. When these can
not be had for winter fattening the
farmers must have balance of corn,
'tankage, or meat meal, and middlings
or some such feeds if he wants to fat
ten his hogs economically. Then Ark
ansas farmers should adopt the plan
of "hogging down" a few acres of
corn every September. If peas or pea
nuts are in the field the pigs will have
a good ration.
Let Arkansas produce all the pork
we need instead of buying it from
Missouri. The extension division OF
the University of Arkansas and Unit
ed States department of agriculture,
Fayetteville and Little Rock, has
bulletins on hogs and hog feeding
for free distribution. All country
agents keep bulletins for farmers and
will be glad to work out for them a
good hog fattening ration.

Eyes, sir; 1t seems simple enough to
put on diving dress and GO down into
the sea, but can assure you that 1t Is
not quite SO easy as 1t looks" said
deep-sea diver. 1.-THE farther one goes
down below the water the greater the
pressure, and, consequently, the labor
and exhaustion Of working Is greater.
You would probably find 70 feet quite
deep enough for your first dive. The
pressure on your head would be SO
great that, not being used to 1t, your
ears and nose might bleed. In diving
the rate Of ascent Is important. II
the diver is less than 80 feet below
the surface he can be pulled up two
feet second with safety; for greater
depths the rate Of ascent must be
slower"

FEED THE HENS.

Arkansas farmers are beginning to
realize the Importance of poultry as
source of considerable revenue in
addition to the contribution to the
family table. Why not try little
bookkeeping, put down in a book the
number of laying hens and pullets
(no ROSTERS needed until February,
charge up grains and purchased feeds
and keen record of egg production.
Hens will not lay we'll on just any
kind of feed.
They must have egg producing
feeds and these will include grains,
greens or pasture, rye, clover, or
wheat, ETC., worms. or rabbits or some
other meat food and grits. Equal
parts of wheat and corn, half as
much oats fed in straw or leaves make
a good dry feed for WINTER. Then a
dry mash, say five pounds of bran.
five pounds of shorts and three and
one-half pounds of meat scraps will
make a good feed. If milk is avail
able the meat scrap is not necessary.
These two feeds with ground oyster
shells will make good winter feeds
for hens. Eggs in some Arkansas cit
lie sare now selling for thirty cents
and in the East for fifty cents. 1t
will pay to produce eggs for market
this winter and then farmers should
organize for shipping eggs to the good
markets if local prices are not good.
The extension division of the Univer-
sity of Arkansas and United States de-
partmert of agriculture. Fayetteville
and Little Rock, will send bulletins or
poultry problems. Advise with the
