after day without injury so long as the
amount consumed within short pc
riod is not sufficient to poison their
systems.
Preventive Suggestions.
In regard to. preventing the poison
ing of range sheep the specialists offer
the following suggestions:
Sheep should never be taken from
the cars to pasture having much lu-
pine. 1t is cheaper to buy hay. After
long drives with insufficient forage
avoid grazing grounds/which are COW
cred with lupine. If 1t is necessary
to drive sheep over luplne patches, do
not hurry them, but allow them to
spread out and drift across. Special
care should be taken in the fall, when
the grass may be covered by fall of
snow, since at such times the luplnes
may be the only vegetation protruding
from the snow covering, and therefore
may be eaten in large quantities.
In the treatment of the fi0cks re-
member the general fact, which is ap-
plicable in regard to all poisonous
plants, that well-fed sheep are not
likely to eat injurious plants. Condi-

churn. During the winter the feed Is
such that the fat globues become very
much harder and this likewise inter
feres with ease in churning. The
cream also becomes more viscous as
the animals advance in their lactation
period and this again makes churning
more difficult.
Whenever butter granules fail to ap-
pear in about 30 to 40 minutes churn-

temperature. 1t is well to raise the
temperature only few degrees at n

DIFFICULT CHURNING
IN WINTER SEASON
Trouble Usually Caused by InCor-
rect Temperature or Compo-
Sition of Some Milk.
(By L. G. RINKLE, Missouri College OF
Agriculture.)

By L. G. RINKLE, Missouri College of
Agrculture)
Failure to get butter ito come" by
churning is not an uncommon expert
ence during the winter season. The
trouble most often occurs on those
farms where only few cows are
MIXED. If the milk of one or two ami
mails is responsible for the difficult
churning, other milk when mixed with
it will overcome the trouble. Usually
when the trouble occurs it is due to
one Of two causes: an incorrect churn-
ing temperature, or because Of the pc
culiar composition of some milk and
cream.
During the cold months of the year
cream should be churned at higher
temperature than during the summer
months. For this reason q careful
regulation of the temperature is neces-
sary to give the proper ease In churD-
ing. If the temperature at which one
churns is not high during the winter
months, the cream must be churned a
longer time to form butter. One may
churn at so low a temperature that
butter will not form with u reasonable
amount of churning. II is very com
mon practice during the winter to- al
low the cream to become so cold that
1t will not churn.
Sometimes when cold cream is agi-
tated in the churn It will whip and ex-
pand until the churn Is nearly full.
In this condition butter will not form
because the cream cannot be sufficient
~ agitated. When a low temperature
OF the cream is the cause of difficult
churning the trouble may be easily cor
rected by raising the temperature. AS
the winter season approaches there Is
usually a larger number of stripper
cows. When a cow becomes nearly
dry the butterfat globuIes in the milk
become very small and collect with
great difficulty on being agitated In the

BANDITS ROUTED BY WOMAN |
Shot for Shot With Bank Rob-
bers-Wounded in Arm.

A woman, although wounded, stood
on the firing line at Kanopolis recent
ly, engaged in a revolver duel with
five bandits who had robbed the Ex-
change State Bank of this town, and,
with citizens allied behind her, fought
the robbers in running chase until
the men jumped into high powered
motor car and sped north out of town.
The heroine was Mrs. James Cowie,
wife of James Cowie, president of the
bank, and mother of James Cowie, Jr.,
assistant cashier
The robbers came into Kanopolis in
their motor car. They cut off all tele-
phone connections and then broke into
a Union Pacific Toulouse and took a
pick AK They left their motor car
standing in an alley behind the bank.
Then they broke into the back door
of the building and started working
on the vault
The robbers fired two shots Of nitro
glycerin, one forcing an entrance to
the vault and the other blowing open
the door of the safe. They took S2,500
in cash and $1,000 in stamps and start
ed to escape.
The explosion shattered the plate
glass front of the bank, and its noise
awakened James Cowie, president of
the bank, Mrs. Cowie and Cowie's two
sons, Richard Cowie and James
Cowie, Jr., assistant cashier. The
Cowie family live only block away.
Dressing hurriedly, the family ran
to the bank, where the members saw
the bandits guarding the doors and
going through the drawers within the
vault. The robbers opened fire, and
the elder Cowie and his son returned
it.
Mrs. Cowie, revolver in hand, forced
her way to the front Of the bank and
returned shot for shot with the ban
dts. She was wounded in the arm
but kept on firing. The robbers fled
to their motor, leaped into it and raced
north. A posse followed, Mrs. Cowie
being among the foremost members
and not minding the wound she suf
fered. The robbers escaped, however

.PLOW UNDER THIRD

Ancient InCaS of Peru PractiSed
Method of Fertilization Thou
sands of Years Ago.

(By r. 3. HOUSE. Colorado Agricultural
College, Fort Collins, Colo)
More humus means less frequent
irrigation and 1t also means larger
crops. 1t seems almost shame to
see most Of our farmers cutting the
third crop Of alfalfa, and then plOw-
ing up the field. Whereas, If this
'plowing were done in the fall about
the time the third cutting was ready
to harvest, 1t would give this field
a dressing of green manure which
would be invaluable, for 1t. This is
not theory at all. 1t has been dem

MAKING A STATE OIL SURVEY
Kansas Produced 100000 Barrels
Last Year, Says Secretary of
Academy,of Science.

The total oil production in Kansas
fields during 1916 was approximately
100000 barrels, according to an esti-
mate made by w. w. Swingle, secre-
tary of the Kansas Academy of
Science, which is now completing a
survey of the oil and gas territory Of
the state. Statistics, now almost COM
plete, will later be incorporated into
a formal report.
Figures gathered show that the oil
production in Butler county last year
amounted to slightly over 6,500,000
barrels, Mr.. Swingle stated. This is
2,490,671 barrels more than the total
output of the state in 1915. There are
two fields in Butler county, the Au-
gusta and Eldorado fields. OF these
the Augusta field is the heaviest pro-
ducer
During 1916 the preliminary report
shows, 9S7 oil and gas wells were put
down in Kansas. OF these S26 were
oil wells, thirty-five gas wells and 126
were dry holes.
Kansas produced $35,OOO0OO worth
of mineral products during 1916. ac-

versity, who has just compiled the sta

the plants is believed to be due to the
presence of alkalOids. Under ordi-
nary conditions on ranges well pro-
vided with grass, sheep can eat as
heartily of the lupines as they wish
without danger. Where the animals
are unusually hungry, however, and
are allowed to Craze where the plants
are abundant, there is danger that
poisoning will result. The poison is
