was mighty long wait for breakfast,
can tell you.
NY digestion has been faulty for the
past two years. No one but a sufferer
can imagine the extent of my trouble.
TO have to sit down to meal and then
be afraid to eat even when hungry
that's what faced for two long years.
Once In while I'd take a chance and
eat heartily and the result was always
the same.
.Belching Of gas and heartburn in
variably followed and kept me in misery
for two or three hours afterward. Then
my appetite began to fail. I'd arise in
the morning with such nasty taste in
my snouth--I didn't feel like eating q
thing. Sometimes I'd feel weak,
nervous and dizzy, and supposed 1t was
lack Of nourishment.
@Tnulac was recommended by friend.
In the short time I've used 1t, the med.
icine has done more good than all else
have tried. Just think of eating .
hearty breakfast in comfort after starv.

production Of pure bred COWS is dis
tinctly recommendation. The above
figures are taken from the list Of tested
cows issued by the Jersey, Guernsey,
Ayrshire and Holstein associations.
Certainly conditions of feed and care
affect production. 1t is equally certain
that the farmer and not the cow Is re-
sponsible for these conditions, and 1t Is
my contention that under similar con-
ditions the pure bred COW win produce
more probably and reproduce more
uniform quality In her calves than win
the grade.
Probably all of us from personal OBJ
servation agree that the pure bred sire
Is desirable at the head of the herd.
Have we analysed the reasons why?
He Is simply reproducing the qualities
Of his pure bred forbears in building
up the producing ability of the herd.
Would grade bun do the same?
Would he impart the same uniformity
to his get? Not In one case out of fifty.
No dairyman ever got rich In day.
The dairy business demands patience
No dairyman can afford to neglect the
building up Of his future herd It is
his responsibility to breed better cows
with every generation. The grade COW
is handicap In breeding. So many
conflicting lines back Of her prevent
prepotency, and she fails to breed "true
to type Her daughters are just as
likely to be inferior as to be superior
to her. On the other hand, pure bred
stock carefully selected and judiciously
bred afford foundation for improving
quality with every generation.

Cara of Dairy RuIl.


Judicious management is quite as i'm
portant as careful feeding in keeping
bulls in satisfactory breeding condition.
Exercise is a prime essential. If young
bulls are placed in paddocks they will
usually take sufficient exercise. but
this is seldom true Of an old bull. A
better way to insure sufficient exercise
is to lead him a mile or two or even
farther every day. This exercise win
do more to keep him healthful, vigor-
GUS, quick and sure than any other
method that can be employed unless
he Is accustomed to using treadmilI.
In this event an hours exercise on the
mill daily will keep him in good form.
Any bull that has been carefully fed,
not permitted to become overfat, but
yet in thrifty, vigorous condition,
should breed until he is fifteen or six
teen years old If he has always received
sufficient exercise with regularity

PLANTING FRUIT TREES.
Care Should Be Taken Not to Set the
Roots Too Deep In Soil.

Care Should Be Taken Not to Set the
Roots Too Deep In Soil.
The beginner In tree planting usually
sets his trees too deep rather than too
shallow in the relatively heavy soils of
Missouri, ]. G. Written of the depart
ment of horticulture of the University
Of Missouri says.
young trees should be selected for
planting, and they should be set at the
same depth at which they stood In the
nursery" Mr.. Written said. Trees
turn to the northeast and grow crooked
because of the warm south and south
west winds during the growing season.
The tree should be set with the heavier
side to the southwest to avoid this.
The roots should be. trimmed so as
not to be cramped snd any ragged
wounds taken off. Peach trees should
be pruned most severely after planting
of any of the orchard fruits. Trim all
branches off, leaving a single whip;
then shorten the whip to a height Of
about two and one-half feet Cherry
trees should be less severely trimmed
If well branched the center of the tree
should be cut out. The japanese plum
tree should be shaped like the peach
Other plum, apple and pear trees, hay
ing only single whip, should be treat
ed likewise. Older trees may be treat
ed like the cherry. with the exception
that all branches may be shortened to
one-half or one-third of their natural
length"

pear on the backs Of cattle, because If
the grubs become tough before being
killed they are likely to cause sores.
II the opening through the skin is
very small it should be enlarged with
smooth, pointed stick A machinist's
oil can having a slender nozzle furnish
es an excellent method Of applying the
medicine. This treatment may be ap-
piled rapidly by. running the cattle
through chute, with one man sta.
toned on each side provided with an
oil can filed with the medicine
The cattle should be examined from
fifteen to twenty days later, and any
grubs that escape the first treatment
should be squeezed out and crushed.
1t is important that any grubs
squeezed out should be destroyed, else
they will transform into adult flies.
The OK MARBLE is one Of the worst
enemies of cattle, especially in the
grazing sections. 1t is sometimes called
botiy and heelHy and is also often
spoken Of as a grub.
In general appearance and size the
adult fly, like many other BOTTLES, re-
sembles the common honeybee. It is
half an inch long, black and covered
with yellowish white and reddish
brown and black hairs.
In the spring from the latter part Of
March to the LIST of May the flies APP
pear about the cattle, laying their eggs
upon the legs, especially in the region
just above the hoof. It is from this
habit Of placing the eggs near the heels
that they get the name of heelfy in the
west and southwest
In 1915 it was estimated that 60 per
cent of the cattle in Kansas were in
fected with MARBLES. The annual finan-
cial loss on damaged hides alone is now
estimated for the United States at
from $4,000, 5000 to $50. 0OO.O 900.
