MILK OF GREAT IMPORTANCE
Will Be Found of Much Help in Feed
ing Young and Old Fowls
Stinting Don't Pay.

Milk will be OF great help in feed
ing both old and young and viii return
more from the poultry than if fed to
the pigs. Feed generously at all times.
The present high prices OF feed are
alarming, but if one can't afford to
feed well at all times he had better
sell at once to some one who can.
Stinting the feed merely gives US a
lot of nOnprOductive bOarders, with
never anything on the profit side Of
the account.

College, Fort Collins, Colo.)
L have heard considerable discus
sion lately concerning the policy of
our state highway commission in
constructing the kind of roads 1t
has decided upon, and it is often ar
gued that the only type of road is
the so-called permanent road, the one
that needs no maintenance.

little figuring, he can easily convince

Protect All Live Stock.

Large heads of cattle at pasture dur
ing heavy thunderstorm attract light

to have the cattle stabbed before the
storm breaks. This is a good way to
protect sheep. colts, and. In fact, all
classes OF stock.

PROPER FEED FOR PULLETS
Almost Impossible to oVerfeed Young
FoVTIs-If Not Given Variety
They Will Not Grow.

It is surprising the quantity OF food
that young puIIets viii consume. It
Is almost impossible to Overfeed them,
for, unlike the hen in laying condition,
they take on fat very slowly. II, how
ever, they are improperly fed and do
not obtain a proper variety OF food
they will not grow, either in size or
weight, and will be very slow in COM
ing to the laying point.

There are many times when a days

donate a days work on the road at
such time?

practice. Make small shocks that will
turn water. Leave until favorable
weather conditions prevail before put
ting in NOW or stack. Some Of the
most progressive farmers use shock
covers but for the average farmer, the
original cost of these and the work re-
quired for their proper use, is prohibit
tive.
For hay to be safe for storage in
NOW the moisture content must be re-
duced to at least 20 per cent. This
point can be determined by taking a
small wisp of hay and twisting. If no
moisture comes out and it breaks read
lily it can be safely stored.
Probably more alfalfa hay is stacked
in Kansas than is stored in sheds and
it is important that the stack be con-
structed properly. In building a cir
cular stack the sides should be given
a fairly prominent bulge and the mid
die should be well tramped as more
hay is lost through poorly packed cen
tiers than in any other way. The top
should be fairly well rounded and
when settled should show good form.
If some marsh hay or slough can be
secured it is advisable to cover with
this in order to shed water and to pre-
vent excessive losses during rainy
weather and before the stack is well
settled.

The present crisis, therefore, calls for the exercise of sound judgment and forbearance. and no word or deed on the part of American citizens should operate to incite racial feelings or create prejudice against those who have come to the territory for the purpose of bettering their condition and enjoy the inalienable right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness guaranteed by the constitution of the United States

SWAT THE FLY"
 MOST DANGEROUS
 GERM CARRIERS

Now that fly time is here every per son shoud feel it incumbent upon him sef to kill every fly that comes his way.
 No longer can we dismiss the fly with contemptuous "Shpo;' He is an influence to be rer';onel with. Black as he is painted, we must con- cede him certain virtues. From a worldly point of view, he is hustler "from way back" perpeluai}y on the job, and always delivers the goods.
 He distributes samples of pestilence with lavish hand, and thn goods d. ways match the sampes whether yoa have ordered them pr not, and are marked D. o. D.--Dea1n on Delivery. We may admire the fly for his in duStry, pertinacity and business en- terprise. We may even love him lukewarmly-as one of Gods crea- lures, but we had better wipe him gently but firmly out of existence, just the same. Flies, like Artemus Wards Injuns, lis pizen wherever found"
 He is the best travelling salesman known to humanity; carries a grip on each of his six legs and a trunk on his head His line of samples is the most extensive and longest known, and will last you, not merely from this year to next, but from time to eternity.
 A fly in the house is as dangerous as rattleSnake, as filthy as a louse, and as disgraceful as bedbug. The time will come when any modern, cleanly home will feel itself shamed and disgraced by the presence of a fly, and when every householder upon whose premises brood of flies is detected will be heavily fined or sent to jail.
