Working from effect to cause these
deductions were made by members Of
the Tulsa Traffic association at thet-
annual meeting in the banquet room
OF the Y. NJ c. A. last night. The
more or less general application TO TN,
situation was made on specific COM

in discussing n suggestion by j. Burr
Gibbons that federal assistance be OBJ
tained in relieving the freight congos-

Such glaring Irregularities as col

went from Tulsa firms prepaid, n
practice that was said to cost ons
Tulsa firm from 10 to 20 per cent ot
its business, collection six to eight
months later Of undercharges on per-

suited In net losses to the shipper,
were brought before tho meeting.
In further support of the claim OF
poor management Of the local situa-

shipping orders were lost before the
cars ever had been moved from pri-
vate trackage. IT was stated that
right now six hundred cars filled with
oil are standing on the tracks in West
Tulsa, engines not being available TO

Earmlna Without Hands.

London Tit Bits tells this story. Jean
Ledrans. French peasant, was mo-
bilized at the outbreak of war In the
artillery. Being known as an expert
grenadier, he was chosen to train re-
crults In bombing. While giving In
structlon, grenade he held burst,
killed six men, and wounded Ledrans
In five places. He lost his right eve
and both his hands were blown OFF.
Immediately after his recovery, the
peasant girl to whom he had been en-
gagged married him, and he settled on
his father-in-law's farm. This brave
son of France, who lost his hands a
little over year ago, is now able to
write perfectly well, TO drive horse
ana cart, drive pillow, hoe and dig in
the fields, and harness and unharness
a horse. All the appliances which he
uses on both stumps of his forearms
have been devised by himself.

SEPARATING CALF FROM cow

Dam for Day or So That II May
Receive the First Milk.

II Is we'll to allow the calf to re-
main with the dam for n day or two
In order that II may receive the CO.
lostrum, or first milk. Colostrum milk
has a purgatlve effect which aids In
clearing out the calf's digestive sys-
TEN. If the mothers milk Is very rich,
II may be necessary to feed milk with
Il lower percentage Of butterfat.
1t Is somewhst easier TO teach young
calves to drink than II is to teach old
or ones, but In either case IL Is neces-
sary for the calf to become hungry by
the omission Of one or more feeds be-
fore IL will drink milk from pail.
One method of teaching the calf TO
drink Is 10 get II to suck the attend
ants finger rs Its mouth. comes In con-
tact with the milk In the pail. The
finger can be withdrawn gradually,
and the calf will usually continue to
take In the milk. Patience, rather
than force, is prerequisite on the
part of the feeder.

SPRAY MIXTURES FOR cows
ohio Experiment Station Recommends
Fish oil, OIL Of Tar and Crude
Carbollc Acid.

Spray mixtures may add TO the COM
fort of n COW by keeping of numerous
flies. Several of these compounds may
be mixed ut home.
A mixture recommended for this
purpose Is given in Bulletin 267 of the
Ohio experiment station as 100 parts
of fish oil, so parts of oil of tar, and
one part Of crude carbOlic acid. An
other formula is one-half gallon of oil
of tar, one-half gallon of cottonseed
oil, and one'half pint of crude carbolic
acid. Such mixtures sprayed on cattle
keep off flies for time.

Milk for Babies.

Jersey and Guernsey cows give rich
fat-producing milk, and for that reason
their milk has been regarded as too
rich for infants. 1t is still true that
the milk of the Ayrshire and the Hol-
stein is better suited to infants than
the Jersey and Guernsey milk, but the
cause is not the fat, as has been
thought. The fact is that the casein
of the Ayrshire and Holstein milk Is
decidedly more flocculated and not SO
readily curdled in the stomach, so that
It is the most easily digested by chill
dren.

BUILDING UP A DAIRY HERD
Use Of Purebred Bull is Cheapest Way
Too Much Stress Cannot Be
Laid to Ancestry.

The use of purebred bull is the
cheapest way of building up herd.
In selecting a bull too much stress can
not be laid TO his ancestry. The greater
the number of good producers in his
pedigree, the better the chances for
stamping desirable dairy characters
tics upon his offspring.

INGREDIENTS OF DRY RATIO
Should Not Be Different From Those

Give Some Roughaae.

The ingredients of the ration for
the dry cow should not be so very
different from that fed at other times.
In order TO cut down on the fat-pro-
ducing elements, hominy is frequently
used In place Of corn. Bran and oats
are both rich In mineral matter which
goes TO give bone TO thc unborn calf.

COWS NOT MIXED PROPERLY
Not Much Gained by Feeding Unless
Farmer Gets All the Milk and
Butterfat Feed Makes.

There is not much to be gained by
feeding a COW unless you are deter
mined to get all the milk and butterfat
the feed makes. You cannot get all
the milk and butterfat the feed makes
unless you milk the cow right. A large
percentage of cows are not MIXED
right, so large loss of milk and Il
larger loss of butterfat result. 1t is
as important that cows be well MIXED
as it is that they be well fed.
