FARM DEMONSTRATORS
SAYS TO PLANT WHEAT

Let every farmer sow enough
wheat for home consumption.
Treat seed with formaldhyde to
prevent smut, Select well drained
land and prepare good seed bed.
Pillow early if possible and allow land
to settle before planting. Use roller
and harrow on the plowed land.
Plant early, about the time of the
first frost, late planting means low
yields,
Use manure if possible, lime some
of the land sown in wheat this year.
Next year / won't have to remind you
of it.
Where you are going to sow wheat
following a cultivated crop don't
pillow; use a disk harrow and make
good fine seed bed.
Sow some rye for a cover crop and
get ready for good corn crop next
year.

demonstrated years ago by Joule and

a thing 'burns up" as we say, the sub.
stances that give out the light and
heat are changed. not destroyed. The
wood or whatever the substance hap
pens to be becomes ashes and gas, and
If we could gather up all the products
of the burning we should find that they
had not lost a particle Of their weight

changed. The eternity Of matter was

COWS ON NEW PASTURE.
Grain Feed Needed to Balance Up Lack
of Nutritives In Early Grass.

of NutritiVes In Early Grass.
Upon the care and treatment of the
dairy COW during her first few weeks
out to pasture will In large measure
depend the profit we realize from her
or the loss We suffer because she did
not get the right start, writes CORE
spondent of tue Iowa Homestead.
| have seen COWS that began at once
10 return a good margin OF profit after
going out 10 grass. and | have seen
those which never were able 10 over
come the handicap with which they en-
tered the season. What then ought We
to do for our COW during these few
weeks after she Is In training. as We
might say. for her years work.
In the frst place. 1t Is well 10 remem-
Der that there Is not great deal OF
substance In the best pasture grass the
fore part OF the season. IL is fresh
and appetizing. possessing strong laxa-
tive properties. but Is chiefly water
with certain favoring and medicinal
extracts added That is principally
why the COW upon going to pasture Is
subject TO diarrhea unless she Is pro-
vided with other feed than that which
she can get In the field
To overcome this lack Of substantial
nutritiye material In the spring grass
we need to feed about as much grain
as we did before the COW went ont, but
II ought 10 be OF different kind. In.
stead OF wheat bran. which tends to
looseness OF the bowls. We may give
wheat feed. gluten or cornmeal Silage
Is not required. because that has a
tendency to laxness OF the bowels
Good timothy or clover hay should be
fed as long as the COW will eat II. II
IL grave mistake to withdraw this
coarse feed the. first few weeks after
the COW goes TO grass.
For another thing. the grooming
ought 10 be kept mp. Usually the COW
Will be shedding her hair just now. II
not removed regularly II will get mat
ted up aud cause good deal of dis
comfort. The pores OF the skin cannot
net as freely as they should. and the
COW Is not very comfortable. We have

possible way 10 get rid of the accumu-
lated dandr1I and loose hair. 4 few
minutes with the comb and brush Will
help about this very much and bring
back more milk.
Then, too. we are sometimes apt 10
forget salt at this season OF the year
The COW needs It. however. even more
II possible than she did when she was
confined all the time In the stable. In
fact. salt ought always 10 be where the
COW can get II. She Will not take more
then she needs. or that We may be as.
sured.
