A Days Work.

What constitutes days work.
Hartselle Enterprise. Get up in the
morning, dress, shave with a cheap
razor, bring in enough coal for the
day, hold the baby while breakfast
is being prepared, eat hurriedly, rush
to town, work fiercely at your job till
dinner: then walk hurriedly home,
hold the baby while the midday meal
is being put on the table, then after
eating, hurry back to the job. After
which, work till $3.50 and go home for
the evening meal, and hold the baby
while the cook and the housewife are
preparing the meal. After supper put
the baby to sleep, bring in some more
coal, shut the water off, If it's threat
ening night bring the flowers in, put
the cat out, and poke up the fire. If
that isn't a days work 1t is because
it takes part of the night to finish
your tasks.-Montgomery Advertiser

| SOME YOUNG LAMBS
NEED SPECIAL CARE
When Young Animal Becomes
Chilled Wrap 1t in Blanket
Hard to Raise by Hand.

A farmer who keeps sheep nearly al
ways has a few lambs needing specia
care in order to save them.
If one is found chilled, it should b
wrapped in an old coat or blanket, ant
placed near a fire to warm.
A few drops of some hot liniment
with a little Of the ewes milk, warmed
with hot water, fed to the lamb tea
spoonful at time ten or fifteen min
utes apart, will soon warm it up I'm
less too far gone when discovered.
Sometimes the lamb will need 9
good rubbing around the throat and
limbs before it can swallow. They
should not be rubbed too much, how
ever, as the mother knows her young
by the smell, and it makes work tc
raise them by hand.
This can be done successfully if one
is careful in feeding. A lamb will dc
the best on a bottle, but it Is a little
more work than teaching it to drink.
It is best to use the. ewes milk, Il
possible, for a week or two, as one has
to be careful in feeding with cows
milk. If cows milk is used, it should
be made half water, sweetened little
with sugar. Feed sparingly, about as
one would baby, about once an hour
at first, and farther apart as they grow
older. If the lamb is small table
spoonful will be enough at first.
AS the lamb grows older make Its
feed one-third water and feed more.

Difference In COST
OF FEEDING CATTLE
Experiment Conducted by Penn
syIvania Station Favors Corn
SiIage for Steers. -.

The Pennsylvania station has con-
Quoted several experiments to deter
mine the difference in cost of feeding
cattle by the common Pennsylvania
ration of mixed hay and corn slower
as roughage, and chopped ear corn,
or corn and cobmeal and bran, as con-
centrates, and ration composed OF
corn silage, mixed hay and cottonseed
meal, supplemented by corn. In all
experiments smaller gains were made
by the lot of cattle fed the ordinary
Pennsylvania ration.
In one experiment, which is typical,
the average amount of air-dry matter
required to make a pound OF gain
ranged from one to three pounds more
head for cattle fed the common ra-
ton than for those fed the ration
adopted by the station. The cost or
producing 100 pounds of gain for the
entire period of the experiment, In the
case of the lot fed the Pennsylvania
ration, was $2S7 greater a hundred,
compared with the cheapest of the
other lots, a4ld $1.85 higher than the
most expensive lot where silage
formed part of the ration. The daily
cost of feed head for the entire ex-
detrimental period ranged from 22
cents with the common ration to 1853
cents for the adopted ration.
The experiment emphasizes a decid-
ed advantage in using corn silage for
at least portion o: the roughage in
fattening cattle, if they are to be fed
economically. Results also show the
advantage of feeding a large amount
of roughage during the early part of
the feeding period, especially with the
prevailing high prices of the various
grain feeds.

thin slop for the, first day. The feed
ing for the first three or four days
should be light, and the time consumed
in getting the sow on full feed should
be from week to ten days, depending
on the condition of the SOW and the
size and thrift of the litter 1t takes
plenty of sow's milk to make healthy,
growing pigs. If the pigs begin to
scour, feed the SOW less and give her
plenty of strong limewarer.
1t is very necessary that the little
pigs have plenty of exercise and all
the sunlight that can be given them.
Do not allow the pigs to run out during
cold rain. If possible, provide green
feed or roots. These keep the sow
healthy and cheaper the ration. En-
courage the pigs to eat grain after
they are three or four weeks DID, Build
a creep for them so they can feed
alone. At this age feed for bone and
muscle. Give them all the skim milk
you can. If skim milk is not available
give them some meal and plenty OF
pasture. In about eight or ten weeks
the pigs will have practically weaned
themselves. After they have been
successfully weaned the most perplex
ing job is over.
BY putting into practice the essen
tial points above mentioned the mum
Der of pigs raised to wearing should
be increased. Hogs never fail to re
spond to good care. Kind treatment
always means contentment, with its
corresponding profits, and requires but
very little more effort.

Agriculture.)
Farmers who intelligently feed and
care for their pregnant sows. so as not
to overload them with fat. but instead
give them feeds for the development
of bone and muscle, are on the right
road toward the production of strong
healthy litters. Their preparedness
program, however, does not end here.
Two weeks before narrowing the SOW
should be put into narrowing pen so
that she will become acquainted and
contented in her new quarters. The
narrowing pen should be dry and free
from drafts. Provide the pen with a
guardrail made of 2-by-4-inch planks
set inches from the wall and 8 inches
from the floor to prevent the sow from
crushing the pigs against the wall.
Use only a small quantity of bedding;
leaves or straw are preferable. See
that the SOW has plenty Of fresh water

the newly born pigs in a Well-warmed

it should be removed from the pen at
once and burned or buried

VioIins Keeping Tone.

The best violin makers use timber
which has been seasoned for many
years, sometimes centuries, buying
beams from ancient buildings for the
purpose. Changes in the grain Of the
wood caused by shrinkage, or wealth
ering. will affect the tone of violin
materially. The Italian school of
makers invented varnishes which were
believed to have preservative qualities
and to prevent changes in timber tex
ture. If your violin is made of perfect
ly seasoned wood, and is veil treated
with a good varnish, it should pre-
serve its tone all right.
