Raising the Dough With Saliva
ton Army Doughnuts

The doughnut that made the
doughboy happy and was so wide
ly and generously distributed to
our boys cover There" by the
Salvation Army, has been promi-
nently featured by that organiza-
ton in the great national drive to
raise funds to continue over here
their great work in the cause of
humanity.
In the great drive in New York
City, doughnuts were sold by the
Salvation Army by the thousands
at one dollar apiece. The Royal
Baking Powder Company CON
tributed to the Salvation Army a
large quantity of their famous
product, which not only raised
the dough in the doughnuts but
went a long way in helping to
"raise the dough" for the fund.
This famous doughnut is shaped
like a life preserver and was no
doubt regarded as such on many
occasions by our men in the battle
line beyond the reach Of rationS.
The soldiers have sung its praise
so much that the recipe for MAX
ing four dozen of the kind of
doughnuts that helped win the
was is given here for the benefit
of our readers:
Five cups of flour, two cups of
sugar, five teaspoonfuls of Royal
Baking Powder, one teaspoonful
of salt, two eggs, one and three
quarters cups Of milk and one
tablespoonful of lard,
Knead, shape with a doughnut
cutter, drop into very hot lard
and in a few minutes-you have

DATES TO BREED BEEF COWS
To Secure Uniform Herd Of Calves
Definite Time Of Year Should
Be Decided Upon.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
In order to have uniform herd of
calves, cows should be bred at def
mite time of year with this point in
view. For fall and early winter calves
(November and December), cows
should be bred during February and
March. For spring calves February
and March,. which in most cases is a
more desirable date to have the calves
dropped. the cows should be bred dur
ing May and June. Where milk for
family use during winter months is
not an important consideration cows
may be more cheaply wintered. and
calves escape flies and hot weather
when dropped at that time. In all
breeding operations pure-bred sires
only should be used.
Breeders of pure-bred cattle, who
desire to grow calves for exhibition,
should breed their cows from the 1st
to the 10th of December to produce
calves of senior classification. and
from the 1st to the 18th of April for
calves of junior rating.

GOOD PASTURAGE FOR SWINE

The importance of having good
permanent pasture for hogs can hard
~ be overestimated. In many hog
producing localities no other green
forage is used than that furnished by
grass or grass and clover pastures.
The advantage of not having to go TO
the expense of frequently preparing
and seeding the land appeals to most
farmers.
Hogs do not relish grasses except
when the leaves are young and ten

in feeding value as well. 1t is usually
advisable to have some other stock in
the pastures with the hogs to eat the
coarser plants. Cattle are best suited
for this purpose.
1t is impossible to state how many
animals per acre will be supported by
a permanent pasture. In most cases
it is advisable to have some of the
best supplementary forage crops to
Craze in addition to the pasture. A
safe rule is to have at least one acre
of good permanent pasture for each
brood sow kept. OF course this acre
age could be reduced or the number
of hogs increased where a complete
succession of supplementary forage
crops is raised or where the land is
very productive. A greater area should
be allowed if the grazing is poor.
