WORK OF MILKING MACHINES
Test Made by United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture in Dairy
Regions of Many States.

The United States department Of ag-
riculture has put out a bulletin on
milking machines. They made studies
in dairy regions in New York, Michi-
gan, Ohio and Illinois. They found
that in herds of Is COWS or less the
average time required to milk a COW
by hand is a fraction over seven min
uteS, and by machine a fraction under
FIVE minutes. In herds Of SO cows the
average time required is seven min
utes, but by machine just little more
than four minutes.
The cost per year to milk a COW In
herd of Is COWS or less is $1O.91 by
hand, and $1O45 when the herd num-
bered so COWS or more. With machines
the cost was S11.75 per COW in herds Of
10 COWS or less, against $7.34 per COW
per year with so COWS or more in the
herd.
In computing these figures, a total
Of 156 farms were investigated. Inter
est on the investment, the value of
gas and oil, the cost Of repairs, de-
probation and labor were all cOnsid-
cred.

tionate animals and are usually graft
fed to do the will of their master. If
possible, an animal should be broken
to mind without fear of punishment.
In breaking dogs to handle stock 1t is
a great advantage to have stock that
is used to being driven by dog, upon
which to break the puppy. Stock that
is not used to dog is often easily
frightened, or it may fight the dog. 1t
is an excellent plan to have an older
and well-broken dog to assist In the
training, as dogs are initiative. The
puppy quickly learns what is wanted
by association with the older dog. In
training dogs avoid shouting. 1t is as
easy to teach them to mind a single
word or a whistle, and much more sat
isfactory, and remember that much
more can be accomplished by kind
ness than harShneSS.

From the farm management stand
point it is always great deal better
to have things ready for the silo long
before they are needed. It does not
take any more time to see that the
knives Of the cutter are sharpened and
hat the binder is in good working or
Ter at one period OF the year than 1t
does at another and it may mean a
good many dollars to the rancher,
writes G. w. Pugsley, in Field and
Farm. No money is saved by attempt
ing to get along with too little help.
Filling the silo at the best is rather
heavy work and as rule we do not
like that part Of 1t which demands the
handling Of heavy bundles of corn. If
teams and men enough are on hand to
complete the work in q short time and
less trouble will be experienced in get
hng help.
Heaviest Expenses.
One Of the heaviest expenses in con-
nection with filling is the cost Of an
engine and an engineer, and when, an
outfit is hired the farmer should see
that 1T is used to full capacity. This

HANDLING STOCK WITH DOGS
weII-Trained Collie Is UnfaiIing
Source Of Help and satisfaction
Teach Him to Mind.

Upon farms where stock is kept, a
well-brOke collie dog is an unfailing
source of help and satisfaction, while
an unbroken, unframed dog is con-
tinual nuisance. In handling stock
with dog, it is important that the dog
be well trained, and that great care
be exercised while the animals are get
ting used to being managed by him.
When these two conditions are fulfilled
it is surprising how easily and eco
nomically stock can be taken care Of.
The first essential in breaking dog
for any purpose is to teach him to
mind. Dogs are intelligent and affec-

Evenly Distributed.
In this manner the ensilage is evenly
distributed all over the silo, which Ia
not the case when the cut corn merely
falls from the top either with blower
or chain carrier The heavier parts
Of the ensilage such as kernels and
pieces of ears will fall closer to the
point of distribution, while the lighter
portions, the husks and the stalks will
be scattered further away. This makes
it necessary to fork over the ensllage
and with the greatest of care the corn
husks and stalks are not evenly dis
tributed. The distributor will give an
absolutely uniform distribution and
will save the labor of at least one man
in the silo; although there should al
ways be from two to three men tramp

RIGHT WAY TO CATCH SHEEP
Take Animal Either by Hind Leg or
Put Hand Under JaW-NeVer
Grab IL by Its Wool.

An experienced sheep breeder and
flock master says never catch sheep
by the wool. This causes the animal
unnecessary pain. But this is not all.
When you catch the sheep by the WOOL
you are likely to pull out the WOOL
thus leaving a bruised place in the
flesh of the animal. If the sheep Is to
be sold for mutton the flesh will SHOW
this bruised condition.
The proper way to catch sheep Is
to take it either by the hind leg just
above the gambrel point or by putting
the hand underneath the lower Jaw
or neck. In using a crook it is impor-
tant that the sheep are not caught De
low the gambrel joint, as injury to tne
leg is liable to result from this.

MILK is fed in a warm, sweet condition,
ordinarily no difficulties will be ex-
rorionced. The amount of skim milk
fed may be increased as the calf In
creases in size, but it is rarely neces-
ssry TO feed more than 10 pounds
daily, provided grain and good quail
ity of Iegume hay is being used. Where
the supply of skim milk will permit, 1t
is advisable to continue it's use until
the animal is five or six months of age
in the case of grades, and for longer
period in the case of purebreds. Skim
milk is one of the most economical
feeds known for producing growth in
calves,

UTILIZE STRAW FOR CATTLE
Strict Economy Should Be Observed
and Valuable Use Made OF This
Neglected Product.

On many farms where strict econ
omv is observed valuable use is MADE
of straw of all kinds. frequently the
straw is chopped up and mixed with
other foods such as beets, mangles ana
si1ape so as to make the food more
na1atabIe. Some farmers are so care
full to get the fullest value out OF stra"

can ONLY be done by supplying sufn-
cient amount of labor to keep every
thing running. Some farmers favor
a smaller cutter and letting the nlllng
period extend over more time. In some
Instances this is probably an eco
nomical practice. I know one man
who uses a small cutter with chain
carrier-the type that demands the
least power-and runs it with MS
farm gasoline engine. He uses the Or
dinarv help of the ranch with perhaps
an additional mar or two and extenos
the filling of hundred ton s1lo over
period of a week. This of course has
the disadvantage very often of allow
ing part of the corn to become too
ripe, as it is now, while that which
was put in first may be little green.
Different Cutters.
The cutter selected will depend
somewhat upon the kind of silo and
mon the system Of filling adopted. If
cooperative filling is pract1ced an ONO
blower cutter of large capacity VII!
probably give best results. If the
grower is filling his own silO and de-
sires to own his machine, cutter with
knives from IA to 20 inches, depending
upon the capacity Of the silo, Will give
the best results. If the silO IS above
ground q blower cutter should be used
nv all means. If he has an under
ground silo he can get along with a
chain carrier. No matter the style OF
cutter, it should have distributor.
