PROPER GROWTH OF CALVES
PuzzIing Question to Gray Heads in Calf Busness-Much Depends
 on Ration Furnished.

How fast should my calves grow2 is puzzling question even to gray heads in the calf-raising business. This will depend to large extent on the kind of ration fed, but in order for any ration to be considered a definite suc- cess the calves should show a gain of at least a pound a day each day for the first six months. Many ordinary dafrymen are getting a pound and a half gain daily.
 In height these same calves should increase from one and one-half to two inches per month for the first half year. The height and weight have a definite relation for average sized calves dur ing this first period. After six months this relation gradually changes and the weight outstrips the height. At one month of age a normal calf of any breed weighs, approximately three pounds for each inch in height, but at the end of the six months period the weight has increased to six and one half pounds for each inch in height. From that time on there is continued widening in the relation of weight to height until maturity.

BUTTER MAKER SHOULD KNOW
Must Handle Cream and churn in Such Manner That He Will Make
 Best Quality of Butter.

The farm butter maker should know how to handle his cream and churn in such a manner that he will bake the best quality of butter from it. The cream must be ripened even-' ly and then churned at the proper temperature. If too warm the butter will come quickly, but will not be- firm and granular. If too cold it will take longer to churn. Generally, churning will require from 30 to B minutes when cream is at the proper temperature.

BARREL CHURN IS EXCELLENT
Permits concussion of Cream Against Sides Separating Fat GIobules-
 1t Is Best Way.

It has been found that the type of churn that permits concussion of the cream against the sides of the churn, is best, because that is the easiest and best way to separate the fat glob- ules of cream, so they may be coll lected. A good example of this type is the barrel churn which is common-I ly used in some modified form.

GIVING MILK TO DAIRY CALF

 A general rule is to feed one pound of whole or skinned milk to each eight pounds of live weight, rarely feeding in excess of 12 pounds of either. The schedule of feeding used by the Illinois station calls for fouH

The priest went to peru in 1903 with 1000 Japanese emi- ,rron+s with instructions to propagate prdabism. After great hardships, working first as laborer and then as n maker of confectionery, Uyeno slow 1v amassed enough money to construct a temple, which he called "Jionji,' or Acreat Mercy" Later he founded a

WOMEN DOING MEMS WORK

One of the most striking results OF
the .-eat war in Europe, is the extent
to which women are doing the work
of men. Travellers to England and
France report that practically every
able.bccie man is in uniform and
women by the thousands are engaged
in doing mems work-acting as con.
ductors and drivers on the cars and
doing all sorts of heavy work besides.
This shows unexpected possibilities
in what has been mistakenly called
the weaker sex. Women are subject
to ailments which men do not have,
and when so ailing become weak, help
less sufferers: But remedy has been
found. For forty years, Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound has been
making such women we'll and strong,
and as able to do work as any other
