It II impossible to draw a plan of

ments Of every individual case. In
order to- design a plan properly, it is
necessary to know the size of the herd,

whether as whole milk, cream, or
butter), the location Of the barn. well,
etc. However, there are few general
principles that should be followed in
the building of any dairy house.
I.ocation-Altho the dairy house
should be near enough to the barn to
be convenient, it should not be directly
connected with the barn because it is
then likely to be filed with stable
odors which are absorbed by the milk
Or cream. It is well to leave an open
air space Of six to ten feet between the
harm and the dairy house. Placing the
dairy house on the side of the barn
opposite the barnyard also lessons the
ee,Ance of stable odors being absorbed

the dairy house is important and must

0so.

HOW TO TREAT SCOURS.

If scours appear in spite of all pre-
cautions, the following treatment has
proved valuable to the Missouri Agri-
cultural Experiment Station. Reduce
the sows feed, clean up more thor
oughly than before, and give the sow
a tablespoonful Of sulphur in each
feed for several days. 1t is also well
to give the sow good dose of Epson
salts. If practicable, each pig may be
given teaspoonful Of castor oil. or
Epson salts, and charcoal should be
provided in any convenient way. If
no cheaper charcoal can be secured, it
can be supplied by starting fires of
cobs. and then putting the fires out
before they burn out

INCREASED USE OF MILK.

That the high cost of living may be
reduced by the increased use OF milk,
a highly nutritious and digestible food,
is the opinion of A. E. Perkins. dairy
chemist at the Ohio Experiment Sta
ton. He says that a quart of milk is
equal in food value to three-fourths of
a pound of beefsteak, eight eggs, ff-
teen pounds OF oysters, two pounds of
fish, six pounds of tomatoes. or three
pounds of apples, and the milk is
more easily digested and far more
economical than any of the other
foods.

HILL SIDE ORCHARDS.

While hill sides and hill tops are
favorable sites for orchards of peach.

of the tree fruits. there are some OBJ
jections. 1t Is more difficult to plow
and cultivate orchards on steep hill,
sides, more difficult to spray, more
difficult to handle the fruit when
picked. The advantages Of hill side or
hill top orchards are that they are lee
often injured BY late spring frosts and
the trees not liable to have wet feet.

ARGENTINE WOOL.

The Argentine republic annually
produces in the neighborhood of 300,-
600, 700 pounds of wool, rs per cent Of
which comes from white-faced, long
wool sheep, Lincolns and Leicesters,
and is known in the world markets as
Argentine crossbred When sorted,
this wool grades largely into coarse
and medium crossbred, corresponding
to domestic commons and domestic
one-fourth bloods in the United States.
The fine crossbred Of Argentina is
known in the United States as domes-
tic three-eighths blood. Merino fleeces
form 20 per cent of the yearly total.
producing wool that is graded as do
mestic fine in the United States. The
remaining per cent is wool of black
faced and domestic sheep. The aver
aye weight of the fleece is 5.3 pound.

ALFALFA FOR DAIRY COWS.

Prof. j. C. Kendall says: Where
alfalfa is available for dairy cows the
amount of protein that it Is necessary
to feed in the form Of expensive con-
centrates' is materially and profita bly,
reduced. For cows that do not give
large yields of milk, balanced ration
can be made by feeding alfalfa hay
and ensilage. This makes a home
grown ration that can be produced
cheap'y, very important factor in
the economical production of dairy
products"

FRESH FRUIT is ALIVE.
The results of fruit-handling in,

The results of fruit handling inves-
legations during the past few seasons
show that the most important factor
in determining the condition of either
fruits or vegeta bles in transit and after
arrival on the market is the tempera-
ture maintained in refrigerator cars
during transportation. All fresh fruit
is alive and the life activities continue
with greater or less rapidity until It
goes into consumption; the tempera-
lures maintained in transit determine
to a great degree both the rate of
ripening and the development of fungi
and other decay-producing organisms.
