orally make the largest gains
At twelve months a well fed draft
colt should weigh more than half a.

Lanterns Cause a Large
I6 Number of Fires ~
" on Farms &c

Never Set Them on the Floor But
Hang Them on Strong Hooks
or Wires.
BY p. G. HOLDEN.
0VERTURNED lanterns cause
more farm fires than any other
one thing, according to the sta
tistics of underwriting associations.
The days are now getting shorter.
the evenings longer. and the danger
Of fires from lanterns will be in
creased.
Those of us who depend upon Ian
tern to furnish US light while we are
at work in barn, COW shed, or other
outbuilding, should take little time
right now to provide ourselves with a
few safeguards which will diminish.
If not entirely remove, all danger OF
fire from this source.
In every part of the barn where we
need light we should place strong
hooks upon which we can hang the
lantern while we are at work. We
should not trust old or rusty nails,
many Of them perhaps slanting the
wrong way. These nails often break
or pull out, or the bail slips off. AS a
result, the lantern falls to the floor.
upsets, the Oil runs out, catches fire.
Perhaps there is straw or hay scatter
ed about, and before we can do any
thing to prevent bad blaze, the en-
tire building is on fire.
A convenient and safe way to light
the various stalls in the COW barn is
to stretch a good strong wire, firmly
fastened, at the right height behind
the stalls upon which the lantern may
be slid from stall to stall.
Whitewash, literally applied to the
stalls, inside walls and ceiling, will
greatly brighten the interior Of the
barn and we will not need to handle
the lantern as much as we otherwise
would. Whitewash also will sweeten
the atmosphere, will destroy vermin,
is sanitary.
Never set lantern on the floor.
t is sure to be overturned, sooner or
later. Never take lantern into the
hay loft. Never trust small child Or
unusually awkward person to carry
a lighted lantern into building. New
er fill lantern in barn or shed and
never fill it while it is lit. OF course
we should always light lantern out
,.ide the barn II possible. If we can't
20 that, we should be very careful
what we do with the match. Be sure
it is not burning when we cast it
aside and, even though it is out, do
not throw it into hay, straw. or any
infiamrnable material.
And always have fire extinguishers
handy-both in the house and in the
barn

would seem a simple matter. It
Is, however, far from such.
Give two different men the same
kind of horses under similar condi-
tions and they will give widely differ

emerges from the stable with action
and style, in the best Of condition, and

Usually the poorer groom uses the

food he supplies, into the very life Of
his animals.
Feed and Care of the Brood Mare.
1t has been estimated that only 60
per cent of the mares that are bred
each year produce living foals. The
greater part of this enormous loss can
be prevented by proper feed, care and
management. The feeling of the work
ing brood-mare is easier than that of
the idle one. The essentials are a
well-balanced ration of good feeds,
containing good supply Of protein,
lime and phosphorus. An abundance
is especially needed by immature, preg-
nant mares and pregnant mares which
are sucking foals, since in addition
to the demand from the developing
foetus, thefs is the draft of the grow.
ing body of the mother in the one
case and the milk secretion in the
other.
All feeds should be free from dust,
mold or decay which might cause
abortion. With insufficient pasture
and in the winter time. grain feeds
should be given.
The feed should have considerable
bulk Of volume. The bowels should
be kept active through proper com
bination of such feeds as bran, lin
seed meal, roots, etc.
The reputable manufacturers OF
commercial feeding stuffs have done
most of the thinking for the feeder
These feeds consist mostly of cracked
corn. oats alfalfa. molasses and salt

Get Somebody's Goat
By EDWARD KEPLER

Keep goat to help increase the food supply Kitchen scraps and lawn clippings may be disposed of to advan- tage and all the additional feed necee- sary is a little grain when the animal is in milk
 Kansas in the future. believes J. I, Thompson, assistant professor of anil nal husbandry in the Kansas State Agricultural college. They may be kept to advantage on rocky, hilly land unadapted to dairying. The under lying principles of feeding dairy cattle also apply to the feeding of milk goats. Pasturing is the ideal method.
 Milk goats are likely to be kept in large numbers only by breeders and ranchers who supply milk for the manufacture of cheese or condensed milk for hospital use.
 Goats milk may be used for direct consumption of the family, as food for infants and invalids, and the making of cheese from the surplus milk Chemically there is no essential diff ference between the composition Of goats milk and cows milk. In infant feeding. however. goats milk is more digestible Use of this milk for mak- ing Neufchatel cheese will prove profitable as this cheese sells for 80 cents a pound.
 good goat should give 800 to 1000 pounds-approximate 400 to 500 quarts-durinS lactation period of eight months. Breed is an important factor in milk production. The Tog- genburg and Saauen goats are as a rule, heavy milkers. A new worlds record by Toggenburg doe has just been made-2941.5 pounds of milk in 3s5 days. This amount is 26.4 times the body weight of the doe that pro- duced it. This is a greater produc- tion to body weight than was made by the worlds record dairy cow
 Many persons think that all goats milk has a peculiar "goaty odor and taste. If the milk is produced under sanitary conditions and the buck is not kept with the milking herd this disagreeahle flavor and odor will be eliminated.

secured from about three applications on smaller plat. This more efficient work on the large field was due, of course, tc the fact that there was practically no migration of weevils from adjoining areas.
 The cost of treatment averaged about sl an acre for each application This however, may be reduced considerably when large areas are sprayed and when improved machinery requiring less pois- on is employed The cost may be still further reduced when it is possible to mix the poison with other powders. such as lime, which will act as carriers Fur ther, it will rarely be necessary to poison Nn entire plantation to control the wee- vils, since on emerging in the spring they always concentrate near the area in which they passed the winter The wee wills remain rather closely at these points until they have multiplied sufficiently to threaten shortage in the local food supply. For this reason great part of the cotton is not seriously infested with weevils until some time after midsea- son and then not often until well along
 The control measures adopted must depend upon conditions in each planta- tion, but by concentrating on the more heavily infested cuts just before the wee wills become sufficiently abundant to migrate to the remainder of the cotton it will be possible not only directly to ben eft the cotton treated but to protect the remainder of the plantation by prevent ing the weevil migration. In this way the cost of the treatment for compara- lively few acres will be borne by the ben eft derived by tho entire plantation

Control of Butter Dealers

Dairymen will be interested in the reg ulations, just issued by the food ad-
 ninistraion, which will exert a definite control of margins of profit, commits sion and resales by dealers in cold stor- age butter.
 It will no longer be possible for the dealer to figure the cost of his goods at the price he would have to pay to replace them. He must add not more than the definite margins specified by the food administration to the actual cost, which can include nothing more than the purchase price, transportation charges, if any. actual storage and in- surance charges, interest on money in- vested at the current rate while the but ter is in storage, and the actual cost of printing if the butter is put into prints from tubs or cubes. No allowance is made for shrinkage.
 Gold storage butter is butter than has been held in a cold storage warehouse for more than 30 days.
 Maximum margins that may be added by the dealer are fixed, but that does not mean that he may always take the full amount, even on a rising market. These margins are to prevent speculation and are purposely made wide to pro- vide for any cases where the expense may be unusually high. The margin taken must never De more Illdn enough to give the dealer a fair or reasonable profit. The maximum margins are cent pound on carloads, 1A cents on less than a carload and more than 1000 pounds, 1% cents on lots from 700 to 1000 pounds, and 2A cents a pound on sales less than 700 pounds.
 If the butter is held in storage not less than two calendar months dealers are permitted to add not more than 1 cent a pound and 1A cents a pound ad- ditional for each calendar month there- after, but the total must not exceed cents a pound in any case.
 If one dealer sells to another at a price higher than prevails on the open market on which he could have bought, the deal will be considered as collision and a violation of the rules When man ufacturer does the work of wholesaler or jobber, the rules applying in these lines of business apply to him. The new regulations specify the method of figur- ing costs in such cases.
 Commission merchants cannot charge more than SA cents a pound for selling cold storage butter without violating the food control act or these rules. This charge must be included in the margin allowed over cost
 In general, the butter must be kept moving to the consumer in as direct a line as practicable and without unneces- sary delay, and no profits must come to dealers without corresponding service.
