How TO pislodue Dust IN camera.


Dust is the hand-camera mans con-
slant enemy. Dust out the inside of
your camera at full bellows extension
at frequent intervals. and pay all plate
holders the same attention. After a
rail or cycle journey or tramp on foot
there is always a likely chance that
some dust particles may have got
shaken up and found their way onto
the first plate of magazine changer
or changing box, or any other contriv-
ance wherein a plate is uncovered.
Therefore, if good subject turns up,
1t may we'll be worth while to assume
that the first plate may be dusty, and
therefore the subject may justify
second plate. If the plates are In hold
ers 1t is q good plan to take holder
in one hand and give its lower edge
good sharp. bang on the palm of the
other hand, so as to dislodge (if for
tune fayors us) any dust particles rest
ing on the film surface. The holder is
held in the vertical plane during the
banging process, and with the same
edge lowest which will come lowest
when in the camera.

Sterilization Of dairy utensils Is
necessary for the production of dairy
products of high quality, particularly
milk and cream, because the washing
of dairy utensils, at least by the proc

insure freedom from infection and

kill the disease germs and harmful
bacteria that Turk in milk cans, buck

utensils on small farms are not often
sterilized efficiently because steam Is

at such small cost as to justify its

WOMEN NEED SWAMP ROOT

Thousands of women have kidney and
bladder trouble and never suspect it.
Womens' complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney or bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy
condition. they may cause the other or
gans to become diseased.
Pain in the back, headache, loss of am
bition, nervousness, are often times symp-
toms of kidney trouble.

It's not enough to have men say
nice things about you. A little push
will get any kind Of report you crave.
But it won't last. A good name Is
worth everything when it's we'll
earned. But the mere report is only
a passive thing. The name must stand
for energy, integrity and progress. It's
a living something that must be con-
stantly renewed. Most of the failures
of life result from efforts to live on
reputation. That won't work. The
world ever demands new things and
it takes ingenuity and power to meet
them. You must make continuous
record that knows no firing and seeks
constant Improvement. That's the
thing that gives character credit.
Character is a pervading influence.

COOLING MILK ON THE FARM
During Hot Weather 1t Is Best to Ar.
range System So That Water
Comes Direct From Well.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
Milk may be cooled most efficiently
on the farm by running it over q sur
face cooler in which the available wa
ter supply is used at its coolest tenn
perature and the cooling completed by
storing the cans of milk in tank Of
ice water. 1t is possible in that way
within a short time to lower the tenn
perature of milk to below so degrees
F. Frequently the water used for cool
ing milk is not used to the best ad-
vantage. Spring water is sometimes
allowed TO flow over the surface of the
ground and is warmed several degrees
before reaching the cooling apparatus.
During the summer wafer from stor-
age tank above ground is usually much
warmer than that drawn directly from
the well. 1t is best, therefore, to ar
range the cooling system so that the
water which flows through the sur
face cooler or cooling tank comes di-
rectly from the well or, if from
spring, it is conveyed in a pipe well
below the surface of the ground. If
ice is used in a cooling tank the guam
tity Of water surrounding the cans
should be as small as possible to give
satisfactory results. Space enough
should he provided between the sides
of the tank and the cans of milk to
allow for sufficient quantity of ice
and water to cool the milk properly.

cooled much more ice will be neces-
sary. If it is desired to cool milk

PLAN OF GRAZING FOR GOATS
Give Vegetation Opportunity to Grow
by Dividing Range on Which
Animals Forage.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
The production of more mohair and
meat can be obtained in raising goats
on the range by following plan of
grazing which will give the vegetation
a chance to grow sufficiently to main
tain itself. Most goat ranges are used
throughout the year. This and the
general practice of driving the goats
out from corral at the ranch head
quarters and back every day for
months or throughout the year have
been largely responsible for deteriorf-
ton of the range. An excellent method
of giving the forage proper oppor-
tunity for growth is to divide the range
into three areas-one for spring, an
other for summer and fall, and third
for winter.
The number and distribution of the
goats on these divisions should be such

Why vacher-Balm stops all kinds OF

lieves Catarrh, and being harmless

as to secure proper and uniform utili-
cation of the forage. The divisions
should be protected from grazing ex-
-cept during the seasons determined
upon. On successive parts of the sum-
mer and fall range grazing should be
deferred until after seed maturity Of the
forage plants so as to insure proper
Tevegetation. On winter range the for
age close to the sheds should be re-
served for stormy periods only.
The old practice of bedding the goats
on the same bed ground every night
in the year prevents proper manage
ment of the range and results in over
grazing, in uneven utilization of the
forage and general depreciation of the
range. This in turn has bad effect
on the condition of goats and the pro-
tiuction of meat and mohair. The use
of many bed grounds widely distribut-
ed over the range aids materially in
improving the quality and quantity of
the forage, reducing the trailing and
driving of the goats, and securing bet
ter growth of goats and mohair. The
ideal system is to bed the goats wher-
ever night overtakes them, and it Is
this system, called the ''bedding-Out"
system, that growers of goats are
urged to adopt whatever practicable.
The bedding-out system cannot be
strictly adhered to during kidding, dur
ing periods of stormy winter weather,

other times is practicable and 1t has
many advantages.
Range to be suitable for goats should
possess mixture of browse, grasses,
and weeds, be free from continued
heavy rains and SHOWS, and be well
supplied with bed grounds and water
ing places. Browse furnishes most Of
the range feed for goats throughout
the year, so that it should be abundant.
Grass and weeds are necessary for
does and kids during the spring and
summer, and are of considerable value
at all times to give variety to the for
age.
Plenty of fresh palatable feed has
marked beneficial effect on mohair pro-
fiuction, growth of the goats, and the
proportion of kids raised. 1t also re-
duces the proportion of losses. There
fore, instead Of overstocking a range
with inferior goats, the producer
should stock it with the number Of
high-grade goats which it can conserv-
atively carry.
The range goat should be the large,
well-built, early maturing Angora, pro-
ducing large quantity of fine mohair.
The body and chest should be relative-
Iy broad and deep, the back wide and
straight, the thighs full, the ribs well
sprung, and the legs short, strong, and
set wide apart. Such AngOras make
possible q substantial revenue from
two sources-mohair and meat.
The does should be Uniform, Of good
size. have good constitutions, be good
producers of mohair, and should pro-
duce sufficient milk to insure proper
growth Of their kids. The bucks should
more nearly approximate the ideal
than the does. They should be large
and vigorous and should produce
large quantity of high-quality nlohair.
Only those wethers which produce
very large quantity Of fine mohair
should be retained In the herd after
they are two years old.

OF ice water, the ice water in the tank
should have q temperature of about
81 degrees f. Under these conditions
about four gallons of water will suffice
for each gallon Of milk.
In order to cool and hold milk at
low temperatures on the average farm
a properly constructed cooling tank is
necessary. In fact most dairy farms
have some sort of tank in which wa
ter or wafer and ice are used to cool
and store milk. When an abundant
supply of coIl-running water contin-
ually passes through the tank it is un-
