puREsRED SIRE USED AT MISSOURI COLLEGE.

kBy E. A. TROWBRIDGE, Missouri Ag-
ricultural College.)
Quality becomes more essential to
profit In live stock farming each sea-
son. When labor, land, and feed were
cheap 1t was possible to realize a
profit on live stock of an inferior grade,
but with the present high cost of these
production factors and constant dis
termination on the market against the
"grub," it has become evident that the
greatest profit can be expected only
from live stock Of good quality. 1t
may be possible for the feeder or deal
Ier to make profit on inferior live
stock If he is able to buy 1t sufficiently
cheap and sell quickly, but usually
someone has not realized the greatest
possible profit when a "scrub" goes to
market. If 1t is not the feeder, 1t is
the man who produced the animal.

PECAN TREE CULTURE
Should Not Be Set Less Than
Fifty Feet Apart.
IN Wide MlddIes other Crops Can BE
Successfully Cultlvated-Do Not
Allow Cover Crops to En-
"a croach on Trees.
(By w. H. HurT.)

Pecan trees are very deep-rooted,
feed far below the surface, and do not
encroach much on the land until they
are big enough to give profit for its
use. Pecan trees should not be set less
than 80 feet apart; 60 feet is better.
in these wide middles other crops can
be successfully cultivated for years
until the trees require all the land. In
this way planter need not be out of
the use of his land, but can at the same
time be gradually changing an annual
crop that adds no permanent increment
to the value of his soil to a perennial
one that makes his land more valuable
every years 1t grows upon it.
/ have never seen a pecan orchard
that was success unless it was cult
waited, at least while the trees were
young. 1t is for this reason that pre-
Ter the term "pecan orchard" to pecan
grove" for the latter term has about It

turf, and, from my experience, / am

TROUBLE WITH CALF SCOURS
Overlooking, Sour Milk Pals and IT.
regularity in Feeding are Usu-
ally the Causes.

Probably the greatest difficulty with
which the calf feeder has to contend is
scours. Overlooking, sour milk pals,
cold water and irregularity in feeding
are usually the causes, says writer
in Field. AS soon as signs of scours
are noticed it is recommended that the
milk be reduced to one-half, and that
teaspoonful Of dried blood be added
to the milk fed. No dried blood that
has not been thoroughly sterilized
should be used. In severe cases Of
scours, the addition Of one or two eggs
with the dried blood has been found to
be very effective. In severe cases, 1t
Is recommended that the calf be given
one or two ounces of castor oil in the
morning which.is followed In about II
hours by Is drops of laudanum and
teaspoonful of dried blood.

LACK OF SHELTER FOR cows
Exposure to Cold Rains Causes Big
Drop In Milk Professionalism
llness Is Important.
(By c. H. ECKLEs, Missouri College Of
Agriculture.)

By c. H. ECKLES, Missouri College Of
Agricplture)
The dairy COW often suffers the most
from exposure to the weather before
real winter has begun. After steady
cold comes the COW is generally
stabbed. Exposure to cold rains Is
often more injurious to the animal
than the colder but dry weather in
winter.
The dairy COW is not like the fat
steer, protected from cold by a layer
of fat. AS a result, bad weather
causes a big drop in milk production.
So long as the weather is dry it is just
as we'll to leave the COW outside nights,
but every cold rain should find her
protected.
1t is not necessary in the climate OF
Missouri to go to any great expense
on most farms in order that the barn
may be warm. The main thing is to
have tight walls so there is no draft
or wind, and a good roof. Care should
be taken in arranging the stalls In
the form of a platform Of the right
length and a gutter Of sufficient depth
to hold the manure. The cleanliness
of the milk depends to considerable
extent upon having the barn built so
the COW will keep herself clean.

SOY BEAN A PROMISING CROP
Well Adapted to Whole Cotton Belt
Immature Seed Makes Delicious
Vegetable.
(From the United States Department Of
Agriculture)

CF'rom the United States Department Of
Agriculture)
Notable progress has been made in
bringing about the commercial utiliza-
ton of soy bean seed for the manu-
facture Of oil, meal, and various more
or less complex products, according to
the annual report of the chief Of the
bureau of plant industry. The soy
bean, the report states, is well adapt
ed to the whole cotton belt, and indeed
to the whole corn region. In the cot
ton belt it promises to be an import
ant element wherever the acreage Of
cotton has been reduced. The imma-
ture bean seds make very delicious
vegetable and are canned with ease.
Inasmuch as soy beans can be more
cheaply produced than any other bean
seed, 1t is believed that there is
large field for the canning of green
soy beans. Efforts are now being made
to induce canning factories to put the
product on the market. In the grow
ing Of the soy bean and In manufac-
turing products therefrom the United
States can successfully compete with
the Orient.

Inquiries Of Asylum Welcome.

Dr. w. Scott Farmer, superintend
ent Of the Middle Tennessee Hospital
for the Insane, was the principal wit
ness before the investigating commit
tee Of the board Of control.
DR.. Farmer told of the testimony
concerning the charge that attendants
were responsible for the death of Oh
lie G. Estes having been referred to
him when he took charge of the hos.
pital, and said that after he had read
The testimony he discharged two OF
the guards, Albert Thomas and ]. l.
Lorance-both of whom were charged
with being responsible for the death
Of the patient, Estes.
DR.. Farmer stated that the board OF
control had taken up the matter Of
Estes death as soon as it had been
referred to them, or at least the evil
dence was taken shortly after Estes
death, and members of the board had
informed him that they had turned
the matter over to Attorney-General
Anderson of Davidson county for in
vestgation.
AS for the other charge, DIR. Farmer
said it came from some of the mem
bers Of the family OF Mr. Thomas
who was an inmate Of the hospital for
about 81 days and died of traumatic
pneumonia, and that he had two brok-
en- ribs. Both Thomas and Estes died
Of this same trouble. After an inves-
tigation of what little he had before
him In regard to the Thomas matter,
he was forced tc drop this complaint
as the body had been inferred for
some time and but little evidence was
obtainable.
Asked why the matter had been
kept quiet, DR.. Farmer said he was
not in charge when the two patients
died, and could not say. He did not
know what the policy of the former
administration had been, but he de-
clared he wanted everything investi-
gated at any time, and welcomed pub.
licity.
DR.. Farmer said 1t was impossible
to get the class of attendants he
should have on salary of $25
month, and until the state paid more
money he could not get the class OF
attendants such an institution should
have.

planted 1t was now solid field Of tall,
waving corn, which looked as If II
would produce 100 bushels to the acre.
! could not at first see a single pecan
tree, but after locating the corn row
in which the trees were set / was able
to find a number Of Gead ones and
some very small, living but discour-
ged-looking trees. They would have
had more chance of survival in the
struggle In their native forest than in
that jungle Of corn. The field was
planted solid with corn, there being
just one hill left out where the pecan
tree stood. The trees were cultivated,
and intensely so, but what chance had
they of surviving, much less of max
ing a satisfactory growth!
! believe that when Euclid, the math-
ematiclan of antiquity, said, ut is i'm
possible to have two things in the
same space at the same time" he was
thinking especially of corn crop in a
pecan orchard.
Corn is too tall plant and too gross
a feeder to be used successfully as a
cover crop in any kind of an orchard,
unless it is kept at a reasonable dis
lance from the trees.

Nashville.-The senate has passed
the bill authorizing a vote by the peO-
pie upon whether a constitutional con-
vention shall be held. The date fixed
for the election was July 90 The
house already had passed the same
bill, but April 2 was set by it as the
time for the election.
Senator Bates led the fight for the
measure. Representatives declared
that they would fight for a convention.
but pleaded that the date should be
set forward until August in order that
more time might be given for Great
ing sentiment for the convention.
The bill which will admit the truth
Of words spoken and the circumstance
of their utterance to be put in proof
In mitigation of damages in a libel
suit also went through the house by
unanimous vote.
Other new bills in the house were
to amend the dental laws of the state
to provide that female dental students,
after studying one year, may become
practical dental hygienists; to make
$50 month the minimum salary of
any teacher in Tennessee; to appro-
pirate $500 as premiums for any regu-
larry organized poultry show, and $500
for state poultry association; to re-
Quire one-half hour each week in the
publis schools to be devoted to teach
ing pupils humanity to all animals.
Representatives Macon, Rosenfield
and others were the authors of bills
to prohibit banks and trust companies
from engaging in the title guaranty
business; to prohibit corporations
from engaging in the practice Of law
or advertising themselves as ready to
furnish legal advice; to require land

CLEANLINESS IN DAIRY BARN
Two Hours Should EIapse After Feed
Ing, Bedding or Brushing Before
Milking ls Begun.

Feeding, bedding or brushing up
should never take place within two
hours before milking. The dust raised
by these operations takes long time
to settle, and if these operations are
conducted shortly before milking, a
very considerable quantity will of ne
cessity find its way into the milk cans
and pals.
For this reason, also, uncovered cans
aud pals, with or without milk in
them, should never be left standing in
the barn, but should be removed to the
mllkhouse where the air is clean.
