prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
In the average dairy it is better that
cows be without horns, as the danger
Of their hooking one another is thus
prevented. Only in purebred herds,
where the appearance Of the herd Is
considered important from show or
sale point of view, is there any 1ustif1-
cation for allowing horns to grow. 1t
is much easier to prevent the growth
of horns than to remove them.
The points that ultimately will de-
velop into horns can be felt as small
buttons Embedded In the skin. The pre-
vention is most effective If the treat
ment Is applied when the buttons arc
just large enough to be felt, which Is
usually the third and the seventh days.

COST OF MAINTAINING HERD
Serious Problem Confronting Cattle
Producer, Says Doctor Mccamp-
bell Of Kansas College.

A serious problem that cOnfrOnts the
cattle producer is the cost of main
tanning a breeding herd, according to
DR.. C. w. McCampbell, associate pro-
lessor Of animal husbandry in the Kan
sas State Agricultural college.
With the judieious use Of straw,
silage and cottOnseed meal the prob
lem becomes less perplexing. In
periods Of normal prices, cows at the
Kansas Agricultural Experiment sta
ton that were receiving Sflage and
cotton seed with other roughages such
as straw, and kafir butts, were mafn-
tanned during the winter months at
cost slightly less than four cents a
day and were in thrifty condition when
turned to pasture in the spring. Main
tanning a COW herd when properly
managed is profitable.

PROFITS IN EGGS PRODUCTION
Experimental Results at indiana Sta
ton Show That There Is Money
in the Business.

Considerable attention has been
given to the present lack Of profit in
egg production. But data gathered by
the Purdue Experiment station show
that there has been a good profit dur
ing the past year, despite the high
prices Of feeds.
Experimental results at that station
have shown that it takes six pounds OF
mixed feeds to produce dozen eggs
ON the farm. On This basis, with local
grain prices, 1t cost 90 cents for feed
TO produce q dozen eggs in 1914-15 !;
O.8 cents in 1856, and 1877 cents in
1901. During the same periods the
average income per dozen eggs was
1871 cents, 2O.2 cents and 3O.4 cents re-
spectively. This means profit over
feed cost of S.5 cents in the first-named
period; 1919 cents in the second, and
14.6 cents in the third, or during the
past year.
Doesn't it look like there's still a
profit in producing eggs on the farm!

HOG IS GOOD CORN HUsKER
Animals Make More Gain From Corn
When They Gather II Them
seIves-Labor IL Saved.

The pigs are good corn huskers and
they will pay for being so too. Expert
ments have shown that pigs make
more pounds of gain from corn when
they gather it themselves than when
1t is husked and fed to them. It takes
at least one day for man and team
to husk an acre Of corn, so that every
acre that the pigs take care of saves
that much labor. SQuaw corn is very
satisfactory for hogging down in North
Dakota. 1t ripens early, so the pigs
can start on it sooner than any other
variety. An acre Of corn that will
yield 30 bushels will be sufficient for
feeding six spring pigs two months
