The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1917-02-17

Greatest dissatisfaction at Michi-
gan is over the football schedule,
which the students claim is neither
strong enough or representative, of
the colleges the Wolverines should
meet. Pennsylvania, Syracuse and
Cornell are big games, but the re-
mainder of the Michigan schedule
holds no great class.
A meeting with such eleVens as
Illinois, Chicago, Wisconsin and
Minnesota would increase athletic
interest at Michigan and would also
inject more life into Conference ath-
letics. In the days when Michigan
was a championship factor each fall
there was greater enthusiasm than
there is now.
If Michigan wishes to return she
should be allowed to without having
to come in hat in hand. The VOL
verines are not in the position of sup
plicants. They want something, but
they have also something to offer.

Poultry Notes

A good incubator insures early
hatched chickens.
Chilled chicks are apt to have
diarrhea.
The pullet hatched early in the
year is the one which will lay next
winter.
The small coal stove brooder which
will accommodate 300 chicks is a
good investment.
Little chicks should be kept dry.
Don't turn the hen loose too early in
the morning.
If incubators are used, remember
that 1t is just as important to have
good brooder.
Long, pointed short, round, thin
or thick shelled eggs should not be
used for Matching purposes.
Kill the louise. A piece of blue
ointment the size of kernel OF
wheat rubed into the skin Just be-
meath the vent will do 1t.
Most people either raise twice as
many chickens as they should or
provide half enough brooding equip
ment Plan your equipment for the
worst weather that can be expected.
Yards sowed to oats furnish hens
and chicks material that can be sup
piled in no other way than by green
food in some form. Later, rape or
bpckwheat can be used to advantage.
Initiate nature in hen Matching.
Either make the nest in a bottom
less box on the ground or put an
overturned sod in the bottom of the
nest This assists the hen In con-
trolling evaporation from the egg.

age, and cottonseed meal; second,
kafir, alfalfa, silage and cottonseed
meal; third, corn or kafir, alfalfa,
and cottonseed meal.
Lambs fed corn, alfalfa, and cot
tonseed meal will make slightly
greater but not quite so cheap gains
as those fed kafir, silage, alfalfa and
cottonseed meal.
Whole grain should be fed to lambs
because 1t will not gum as readily as
ground grain. A tenth of a pound a
day is plenty to feed at first, but
this should be increased gradually.
Within two or three weeks, when the
lambs are on full feed, two or three
pounds Of grain should be fed.
1t isn't wise to crowd or push the
lambs because if they once get off
feed they lose rapidly in flesh. Al
ways feed plenty of alfalfa or some
other kind Of hay along with silage
4 quarter of pound Of cottonseed
meal day is enough. Cheap feed,
such as damaged hay, can be fed to
lambs with good results. From 60
to so days is the common length of
the feeding period.
The most desirable weight for fin
ished lambs is between 80 and S5
pounds. A quarter of a pound day
is a creditable showing for lambs on
full feed Feeder lambs should weigh
between so and 55 pounds. They
should have a strong frame, be rug
ged, show lots of constitution, and be
uniform in size and conformation.
They should have size and substance
enough to carry plenty of flesh and
fat. Lambs of this kind can be
bought through any trustworthy COM
mission firm.
Most sheep feeders drain their
feeding pens so they will remain dry.
Nothing is more detrimental to the
health and thrift of lambs than wet
nuarters.

Cheap or Highly Bred Cattle

Cheap or Highly Bred Cattle
I asked a commission buyer at the
Btockyards which we're most profit
able to the finisher, cheap cattle or
well-bred ones. and he said:
1T depends on how man is stu
ated. AS a rule advocate handling
medium to cheap grades of cattle.
Every drove of low-bred cattle con-
tains some individuals that have con-
siderable outcome. For example, two
little steers may look alike to the
average buyer. but the man who
knows picks out the one with some
stretch to him. good hair, straight
legs, does not wobble when he walks,
and cuts back the one with the tight
hide, crooked legs, short dead hair,
and other signs of inbreeding. Both
animals may be light boned, and even
the good one will lack the develop
ing ability of a high-bred animal.
There is another reason" he went
on. For two or three years packers
have needed about all the beef they
could buy They do not pay as big
apremium as they used to do, If flesh
Is equal I have seen two droves OF
cattle sell only so cents a hundred
apart, whose original cost as stock
CATTLE was $125 apart"
"But how do your customers figure
who believe high-bred cattle makes a
greater profit?"
Any cattleman will have to admit
that the lightest eaters are the highly
bred cattle, and they make the big
gest gains, especially calves and year
lings. But for the moment forget
that handicap and the line Of figuring
Is something like this:
"If buy stock steers at nine cents
a pound and my neighbor buys stock
steers at eight cents pound. and we
feed them alike and there is the same
difference in price when we come to
SELL and assuming that each drove
has gained the same amount in
weight, I am ahead of him one cent
pound on all the weight the steers
have gained, Suppose he sells his
cattle at 10 cents pound and I get
IL cents for mine he has sold the
gain in the weight Of his steers for
10 cents pound while I get II cents
a pound for the gain In weight on my
steers. We each gain two cents
pound on the original weight Of our
cattle, But my better bred steers will
gain more weight on the same
amount Of feed or will gain as much
weight as his steers on less feed, and
even II ] get only half cent more
a pound than my neighbor when we
come to sell, am still ahead of him."

This is an incorrect conclusion. Prac-
tically everyone who handles dairy
cattle is benefited by studying the
art of judging cattle.
While actual performance is, of
course, the most convincing evidence
of the worth of an animal, the ex-
ternal indications of quality which
are apparent to the judge Of even
moderate experience will go long
way toward preventing mistakes.
Such indications are frequently the
only means of estimating the worth
Of calves, bulls, dry cows, and all
stock in which accurate milk records
and pedigrees are lacking.

dozen eggs for the same pen OF Leg
horns was 81 cents as against an
average cost Of 15.1 cents for the
second laying year of the general
purpose pens. During their laying
year the cost of a dozen eggs was
S.S cents compared to 1876 cents for
the general purpose fowls. The to-
tai value of eggs per hen over feed
cost in the Leghorn pen for three
years was 1854 against s4.S0 for
the general purpose hens. The high
est egg production obtained in any
Of the feed experiments up to 1915
was by a pen of Leghorns which
laid 1915 eggs per hen, at a feed
cost Of 6.7 cents a dozen.
The Leghorns produce smaller eggs
than the general purpose hens. The
average weight of the eggs of a pen
Of Leghorns during the first lay
ing year was 1.42 pounds per dozen
as against 1853 to 1853 pounds for
the other pens. However, Leghorns
laying eggs weighing 1.50 pounds
per dozen or even more, the special
lists say, have been selected and bred
by many poultrymen. An examina-
tion in May, 1915, of 500 eggs from
three Leghorn pens showed that 81
per cent weighed more than two
ounces apiece, or 1.5O pounds to the
dozen.
The value per dozen of the eggs
produced by the Leghorns was from
/ to 8 cents less each year than the
eggs Of general purpose hens. The
difference is due to the fact that
the general purpose breeds are better
winter layers than the Leghorns,
while the latter give higher pro-
duction in the spring and summer.
Very few Leghorns become broody,
which probably materially affects
their egg yield as compared with the
general purpose breeds. Better fer
tility in the eggs especially with stock
confined to the yards is more often
secured with Leghorns than with the
general purpose or any of the heav-
ier breeds.

u. S. Wants More
Stenographers

The United States government
needs, and needs badly, great num-
bers Of stenographers and typewrit-
ers, both men and women, for service
In the departments at Washington,
D. c., and the situation in federal Of
fices outside of Washington is scarce
ly less urgent. The supply Of quail
fled persons on the commissions
lists for this class of work Is not
equal to the demand, and the COM
mission urges as patriotic duty that
citizens with this special knowledge
apply for examination for the govern
ment service.
At present all who pass the exam
ination for the departmental service
are certified for appointment. Large
numbers of stenographers and type
writer's are needed for the field serv-
ice, and practically all men who pass
the field examination are appointed
at an entrance salary of $1,000 per
annum. Many women are required
for various branches of the field serv-
ice, and recently twenty women
stenographers and typewriters have
been appointed in the Puget Sound
navy yard.
Examinations for the departmental
service are held every Tuesday in AZ
cities in the Eleventh district. Ex-
aminations for the field service will
be held on August 1S.
For full information and applica-
tion blanks apply to Herbert F..

Vancouver, Wash, July 26.
Mr.. Lee B. Franklin, Central Point,
Ore.
Dear Mr.. franklin: Just a line to
let you know that I have emerged
from the pedagogical ranks into the
ranks Of Uncle Sam and am enjoying
myself immensely.
This is my second week In the
service and so far I have enjoyed its
many interesting and attractive fea-
lures,
A day in army life is, specifically,
from $40 a. m. to II p. m, although
but five hours Of this time are used
for service, while the remainder In
our own.
I am debating whether to enter
the medical corps or the musicians
unit, as I have my applications in
for both and will probably be called
soon into one branch or the other.
At present am located in Com
pany I, 14th, at Vancouver barracks,
on the north bank of the beautiful
Columbia, but may be transferred
soon to TT. Wright at Spokane.
Trusting that all is we'll and favor
able with you, I will close with best
regards for your success, and as,
Yours sincerely,

Experience With Milk Fever.
(By j. w. Hart.)

Wy u W AAUibsl
Several years ago I had COW with
three day-old calf take sick with
a disease | had never seen. called
several of my neighbors over the
phone, but they could not tell me
what to do for her. She was down
and had a high fever. Her mouth
was open, tongue sticking out, and
slobber dripping from 1t. She was
breathing hard and fast, and l could
not get any milk from her teats.
AS these symptoms seemed to cor
respond with the symptoms Of milk
fever which 7 had read about in Farm
and Fireside, l decided to try inflat-
ing the udder Having nothing with
which to do this, sent to a neighbor
and borrowed a bicycle pump. With
this l pumped into the bag all the air
1t would hold. After about three
hours | MIXED all the air out and
pumped the udder up again. This
was about 10 o'clock at night and
the next morning she was perfectly
we'll.
A little later neighbor had COW
take sick the same way. He called
me over to see her, and when told
him what to do for her he laughed
at me- But finally got him to get
q pump. While we were Initiating
the udder, he said we were killing
time, as the COW was going to die,
but she woke him next morning be-
fore daylight bawling for her calf.

Practice Judging Dairy Cattle

Successful dairymen are nearly al
ways good judges Of dairy stock.
Training in judging cattle enables
one, first, to make few mistakes in
buying stock; second, to get better
prices for animals he has to sell; and
third, to breed more skillfully, thus
building up a profitable herd in the
shortest possible time.
Judging receives such prominence
at shows and fairs that the casual
observer sometimes carries away the
idea that 1t is field for experts
rather than for the practical farmer.

Home-Made Evaporator for Home
Grown Stuff.

Home-Made Evaporator for Home
Grown Stuff.
Oregon Agricultural College, Cor
wallis, July 31.-Growers of win-the-
war crops may save the most valu'
able part of their surplus products
by. evaporating them at home in a
simple and cheap homemade evapo-
rator designed by the o, A. c. horti-
cultural department and fully ex-
planned in Extension Bulletin 213,
now ready for distribution. The title
of the bulletin is "a Moderate-Sized
Eyaporator for Fruits and Vegeta-
bles." Photographs and drawings
are used to make plain the text, and
by means of all these almost anyone
who cares to undertake it may build
al home an effective evaporator.
The capacity of this evaporator is
six bushels. Since most of the evap-
grated products can be dried out to
a good keeping stage in about six
hours, it is readily seen that the
products may be handled in CONNER
cial quantities If two or more fami-
lies go in together and build and op-
crate one of these evaporators in
common.
By following the ideas of the bull
letin in a general way 1t will fire.
quently be possible to construct the
drier out of such materials as are at
hand, or to remodel some unused
building, such as the smokehouse,
with heat produced by the idle heater
or the laundry stove.
Men and women who used to sum
dry their fruits and keep off the flies
by mosquito netting for several days
to each batch find great satisfaction
IN drying their fruit and vegetables
in a few hours, rain or shine.
