HERD OF puAL-PuRPosE sHoRTHoRN cows.

this grain mixture will increase pro-
duction.
If the roughage consists entirely OF
native hay, straw, cornfodder or corn
silage, he can still use his homegrown
grains, but it will be necessary to use
bran, cottonseed meal, or linseed meal
also to supply sufficient protein. A
good grain mixture in this case would
consist of equal parts ground barley,
ground oats and oil cake or Oilmeal.
If the roughage ration is of mixe'
nature, such as 10 pounds of alfalfa
hay and 80 to 35 pounds corn silage,
the dairyman might use a mixture of
two parts corn chop, two parts bran or
oats and one part cottonseed cake.
These grain mixtures should be fed at
the rate of one pound of grain for ev-
cry three and one-half or four pounds
of milk each cow is producing.

are still the chief reliance. The prop
er breeding, maintenance, and employ
ment of these animal engines is a prob
lem of the greatest Importance to the
farmer.
Speciality Business.
AS a source of cash income, the
keeping of live stock in many sections
is what is known as a speciality bust
ness. In dairy districts it is the main
activity, and every phase of farm man
agement'is determined by it's interests.
Where the principal purpose of live
stock feeding, however, is to maintain
soil fertility, farms which rely on live
stock for the main source Of their in
come will tend to become breeding
centers for purebred animals to be dis
tributed through the surrounding cOun-
try for breeding purposes on those
farms on which only limited amount
of live stock is kept. The production
of purebred animals is highly Spe-
cialized business, and only the most
skilled animal husbandmen can make
a success of it.
The fifth function which Mr.. Rom
mel aScribes to live stock on the farm
is not so directly connected with prob
lens of income but it is nevertheless
of vital Importance. Experience has
shown that nothing tends more strong
ly to create and maintain an interest
in farm life among boys and girls than
the care of animals. It is essential to
the continued prosperity of this coun-
try that young people should be en-
couraged to make farming their voca-
ton in life. Those who have devoted
themselves to this work have found
that among their most effective aids
are the poultry, calf, and pig clubs.
High Cost of Living.
That the neglect of live stock re-
suits in increasing the cost of living
on the farm and in lowering the stand
ard of that living is a fact well known
to all agricultural authorities. For
example, the annual meat bill of farm
ers for some states is enormous. The
meat purchases are made largely on
credit, and the proceeds of the years
crop are mostly consumed in meeting
debts incurred during it's production.
This practice is obviously antagonistic
to thrift and proper prosperity. The
production of homegrown food does
not involve in the least the limitation
of the crop output Of the farm. 1t
simply requires planning and O. little
more careful management. A COW or
two to furnish the family with milk,
butter and cheese, and flock of chick
ems to furnish poultry and eggs, will
do much to make farm fare more
healthful and cheaper.

LIFT YOUR CORNS
OFF WITH FINGERS
How to loosen a tender corn
or caIlus so it lifts out
without pain.

Let folks step on your feet hereafter;
wear shoes a size smaller if you like,
for corns will never again send electric
sparks of pain through you, according
to this Cincinnati authority.
He says that few drops of a drug
called freezone. applied directly upon
a tender, aching corn, instantly re-
Iieves soreness, and soon the entire
corn, root and ali, lifts right out.
This drug dries at once and simply
shrivels up the corn or callus without
even irritating the surrounding skin.
A small bottle of freezone obtained
at any drug store will cost very little
but will positively remove every hard
or soft corn or callus from ones feet.
If your druggist hasn't stocked this
new drug yet, tell him to get small
bottle Of freezone for you from his
wholesale drug hOuse.-adv.

BALANCING RATI0NS
FOR A DAIRY HERD
economy Demands HOMEGROWN
Feeds, Especially Roughage,
Be Fed to Cattle.

(By CHARLES I. BRAY, Colorado Agri-
cultural College, Fort Collins, Colo.)
Economy in feeding usually demands
that as much of the ration as possible
be made up of homegrown feedstuffs,
especially with regard to the roughage.
First, provide for all the good, clean
farm-grown roughage that the cow
will eat up clean, as the nutrients in
roughages are generally much cheaper
than in concentrated feeds.
Now consider whether the grain on
hand is such as to make a balanced
ration with the roughage used. Con-
centrates must be used, because cows
cannot consume enough coarse, bulky
feed to supply all their own bodily re-
quirements, and have enough left for a
large flow of milk. If the dairyman
has plenty of alfalfa hay he can prac-
tically balance his rations nicely with
ordinary farm grains, such as corn,
barley and oats. Five per cert of cot
tonseed meal or linseed meal added to

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Seven reasons why the keeping of
live stock is essential to sound agri-
culture are set forth in an article by
George M. Rommel in the 1916 year
book of the u. S. department of ag-
riculture. Briefly, Mr.. Rommel's sew
en- reasons are the maintenance of soil
fertility, the utilization of raw mate
rial, the need of motive power on the
farm, cash income, the added attrac-
tivenesS of a farm on which there is
live stock, the training in business
sense obtained by keeping animals,
and better and more economical liv-
ing for the farm family.
To maintain soil fertility, says Mr..
ROmmel, humuS is necessary. This
can be obtained from. two sources
green crops plowed under, or barnyard
manure. When green crops are plowed
under, however, there is no direct rev.
enue from them. By feeding these
crops to live stock, valuable products
that can be exchanged for cash are
obtained. At the same time the ma
nure produced by the animals retains
a very large percentage of the fertil-
izing value of the feed. For this rea-
son it is more economical to feed than
to pillow under without feeding, and the
most practical source of humus is sta
BILE manure.
Farmer a Manufacturer.
The farmer with live stock is from
one point of view manufacturer. He
takes lean, unfinished animals and
grain or forage as his raw materials
and by combining them produces beef.
mutton, pork, and dairy products. Like
all manufacturing, this process must
be conducted with skill and intelli-
gence if it is to pay, but if the farmer
possesses these qualities he derives a
larger profit than he could obtain
through the sale of crops and animals
in the raw state. Furthermore there
are many products on the farm which
bring little or nothing on the market.
They can, however, by skillful manage
ment be made to assist in the produc-
ton of meat. The thrifty farmer
makes use in this way of all roughage
on his farm that would otherwise be
unstable. The cornstalks go into the
silo or into the shack as cut fodder.
The straw and coarse hay are util-
lied to the last unit Of energy value.
Land that cannot produce marketable
crops is made to yield certain amount
of sustenance for hogs and sheep.
While in cities and factories me-
chanical power is coming into more
and more general use, on the farms
of the country the horse and the mule

KIDNEY REMEDY
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

There is no medicine which we handle
that gives such good results as your
: Swamp-Root. Many of our customers
have informed us at different times that
they have derived great benefit from its
use.
There was one case in particular which
attracted great deal of attention in this
neighborhood early last Spring, as the
gentleman's life was despaired of and two
doctors treating him for liver and kidney
trouble were unable to give him any re-
lief. Finally a specialist from st: Louis
was called in but failed to do him any
good. / at last induced him to try your
Swamp-Root and after taking it for three
months, he was attending to his business
as usual and is now entirely well. This
case has been the means of creating an
increased demand fo4 your Swamp-Root
with US.
