SUITABLE PLACE FOR CREAM
Arrangement Shown in Illustration
Answers Purpose Quite Well
Little Souring Results.
(By CARL Z. LEE.)


Most farmers would deliver better
grade of cream if they had a suitable
place for keeping it until it is deliv-
cred. No one should attempt to keep
the cream in the cellar or in large
tank of water where the daily pump
ing is not sufficient to keep it cool. II
a suitable place cannot be built in a
well-constructed milkhouse the fol-
lowing arrangement answers the pur-
pose quite well.
Caring for the cream at the proper
time by any of the methods given be-
low will result in very little souring
at the end of two days.
Make a small watertight box of two
inch material and of sufficient size to
hold all the cream cans necessary in
handling the cream. This box should
have tight-fitting cover, and be di-
vided into sections by means of rods
which will prevent single cans from
upsetting when left alone in the tank.
The best place for this tank is in the
milkhouse. 1t may be placed between
the well pump and the stock-watering

SPREADING OF HOG CHOLERA
Important That Owners Of Healthy
Animals Keep Away From Farms
Where Disease Exists.

Doctor Koen, the United States gov.
ernment inspector in charge Of the hog
cholera in Dallas county, Iowa, re-
ports that 1916 per cent OF all cases Of
hog cholera were caused by the germs
being carried from one farm to an.
other by farmers exchanging work or
visiting each other. 1t Is important,
therefore, that owners Of healthy
hogs keep strictly away from farms
where the disease exists and should
keep ether people away from his own
hog lots and pastures.
BY using dislnfectant freely on
horses and wagons which have been
In the neighborhood Of the disease and
by requiring everyone who comes on
the farm or goes near the hog lot to
disinfect his feet, the spread Of the
disease can be very greatly reduced.

FERMENTED BRAN IS UNSAFE
French Experimenters Find That
When Stored in Heap During
Winter Months II Ferments.

Bran when stored in bulk sometimes
ferments, so that it causes digestive
trouble when fed to animals. French
experimenters year or two ago found
that when bran was stored in a heap
for four or five months during the
winter it tended to form into Jumps on
the outside of the heap, and on the in
side the Jumps became darkened, and
In some cases black.
These experimenters, from analy-
ses of different types of bran, thought
that they could determine bran fit for
use by what is known as the acidity
test.
Bran which according to this test
contains less than Is per cent Of acid
is o. K. That which contains from Is
to 80 per cent of acid is safe to use,
but it soon becomes unsafe. That
which contains more than 30 per cent
OF acid is considered unfit for food

When your horse begins to feel ia.
tigued he will strike one of his hoofs
against the ankle opposite, often
bruising and cutting it.
AS jt is generally one of the hind
ankles. an ankle boot should be worn
during long driye, even if it is un'
necessary on other occasions.
Two other indispensable articles on
a long drive are wooden seraper for
removing foam and hoOf-pick for dis
lodging stones. For one who is
often on the road it is also useful to
have a few pieces of rope and some
brass wire, as with these in his pos
session anyone with ingenuity can
quickly repair ordinary damages to
the harness or carriage.
Horses, when travelling, should have
water given to them frequently in
reasonable quantities. If you drive
slowly for a while after watering your
horse, no injurious results will follow,
and they may be refreshed by few
mouthfuls of grain, hay or grass.
Should you chance to stop where
there is a strong breeze blowing, put
a light blanket on your horse, even If
the weather is warm.
Do not, at any part of long trip,
yield to the temptation of racing with

farm by the time the fall pigs need
extra care. Up to this time they have
been fed principally through the dam
When about ready to leave the dam
we begin to give them a slop ration
which we keep up until they go to
market. We begin feeding corn-small
quantities at first-as soon as they
have been weaned. The slops consist
principally of skim milk, and right
here we want to say there is nothing
that compares with skim milk as an
accompaniment to corn for the grow
ing pigs. When there is no skim milk
to be had we have used wheat mid
dlings scalded in hot water with fall

GOOD TREATMENT FOR SHEEP

1t is often argued that sheep should
be kept by farmers because they live
in lean pastures and are useful in rid.
ding the fields Of weeds, getting much
of their living from what other stock
will not eat and that the farm is much
better rid Of That is all true, but
that should not be the main reason
for keeping sheep. In fact, weed de-
struction should be only an incident.
The value of the sheep is in wool,
lambs and mutton, To do their best
in these lines, sheep need and should
have as good treatment as other do
nestle animals.
Sheep may live on pastures that
would not sustain horses or cattle but
they will not do their best on such
pastures, They must eat and thus de-
stroy weeds and even sprouts and
brambles, that other stock would not
touch, but such growths do not make
their best feed.

gently drawn on until the end of the
tube reaches the CROP the neck be-
ing elongated as much as possible,
The lever bar is gently lowered by the
foot and the food is thus forced into
the crop. One hand is kept on the
crop and as soon as it is sufficiently
full the foot is removed from the lever
and the bird is gently removed.
Fhe operator soon learns to know
when the crop is full. No stated
amount that should be fed to an indi-
vidual can be given, for the quantity
varies with the size of the crop.
Great care should be taken in pre-
pairing the feed to see that there are
no Jumps, for the tube is small and

RAISE A FEW DRAFT HORSES
Plenty Of Pasture and Access tc Goou
Stallion Are Essential-Gotd
Breeding Necessary.
By d. c. CAMPBELL. Kansas Exper
ment StatiOn)

By d. G. CAMPBELL Kansas Experi-
ment Station)
There Is nothing more profitable to
the average farmer than the raising
Of a few good draft horses, provided
he has plenty of pasture and access
to a good stallion.
II a good stallion is not standing for
service in a community, the man who
has at least five or six good farm
mares can afford to own his own stall
lion and use him with work horses.
A coming two-year-old stallion can be
bought for approximately 500, and
taken in hand at this age, he makes
an excellent work horse. In fact,
stallion is better for having been
worked. He is harder, more docile,
and makes a good work horse. If the
stallion is worked alongside a bred
mare there will be no trouble in han
ding him. He should be made to
earn his keep and he will be the better
therefor.
The raising of draft horses is diff
ferent from that of any other live
stock on the farm. Important factors
are good food and attention. Good
breeding gives the possibilities, but
good breeding is necessary to bring
this out to its fullest extent.
1t is better for the man of limited
means to raise horses only as a by
product, because the exclusive raising
of draft horses for market requires
considerable capital. The returns at
first are slow, for draft horses must be
six years old before they are ready for
market. The man who has other cash
crops to meet his expenses can afford
to wait for the returns from his young
draft horses.

ARE FALL PIGS ADVISABLE?
One Farmer Adopts Plan Of Raising
Two Litters Yearly, Thereby

whether it is advisable to raise fall

er in an exchange, to raise fall pigs,

small house should be built over it for
protection. All the water pumped for
the stock should flow through this
tank, the inlet discharging near the
bottom, which will force all the warm
water out first The overflow pipe
should have one.half inch larger diam,
eter than the inlet in order that the
water may be freely carried off. The
water in the tank should be of suffi.
cient depth to immerse the cans
