MYOGA HAD DONE ITS WORK
Ample Proof of Its Potency, Though
There Was No Occasion for Many
Congratulations.

band. 'I will give him a great deal
of myoga."
The innkeeper carried out his plan
and gave myoga, spicy vegetable
supposed to produce forgetfulness, in
abundance to the guest with soup and
with vegetables, and soon after the
guest had departed he hopefully in
spected the room. There was no trace
of the coveted baggage.
The landlady began to scott at the
inefficacy of myoga as an oblivion pro

her not to lose faith so easily.
"The myoga has had its effe,t," he
declared.

UNCLE SAM AS HORSE OWNER
New Stallion Farm Established Al

A new stallion farm, the only one
of its kind in the country, was estab-
lished by the United States depart
ment of agriculture in cooperation
with the Wyoming Agricultural col
lege, at Buffalo, Wyo., the 1st of July.
1t is to be known as the United States
Wyoming Horse Breeding station,
where the work that has been done
for the past Is years by the depart.
ment in cooperation with the Colorado
Agricultural college will be continued.
The object of the work at this station
will be to produce high-class stations
suitable for the production of utility
horses adapted to western range and
farm conditions. Stations at this sta
tion are available for use by mare
owners in the community, and from
time to time they will be sent for SER
vice to different parts Of Wyoming
and Colorado. Stations developed for
the range weigh from 1900 to 1,400
pounds.

FEEDING CORN OR MOLASSEs
Both Are Rich in Heat-Producing EIe-
ments and Relatively Low
in Protein.

Corn and molasses are about the
same in composition. Both are rich
in carbohydrates, or heat-producing
elements and relatively low in protein.
Molasses is not quite as valuable as
a feed as corn, but when the price of
corn is S35 or $40 per ton, as it is in
some places, and molasses $25 or $50,
the latter is cheaper feed. The dairy
COW may be fed three to five pounds Of
molasses daily. More than this tends
to lessen the digestibility of the other
feeds in the ration. Molasses is very
palatable to the animal and will al
ways produce sleek coat when fed.
1t can often be used to make unpala
table roughage most toothsome. There
is difficulty always in feeding mo-
lasses. 1t may be put In the drinking
water or diluted slightly with water
and sprinkled on the roughage or the
grain portion Of the ration.

Ways of Selling Products.
The way in which farm forest prod
ucts are sold may have good deal to
do with the profit an owner gets from
his tract. There are four ways of
selling: (1) By scale measurement of
rough products; (2) by the piece, for
such products as ties and poles; (3)
by the boundary, for lump sum; !;
and (4) by lumber scale of sawed
products.
Selling by the log or piece is the
simplest method. Ties, poles, piling,
ETC., are always sold by the piece. The
important things to know are the diff
ferent grades of each product and
their relative value. Fire wood, pulp
wood and excelsior wood are sold
either by the cord or rick. This, too,
is comparatively simple method of
marketing. To be sure of selling prof
itably by boundary for lump sum,
the owner must make very careful
estimate of the amount and value of
his timber.
When to Cut Timber.
In the majority of cases the best
time to cut timber is in the winter
months. Winter-cut timber seasons
slowly and evenly, and by the time the
warm weather comes is air-dried
Products which must be peeled, how
ever, such as ties, poles, and tan bark,
should be cut in spring, when the bark
peels most easily. Veneer logs can
be cut in any season of the year, pro-
vided they are delivered without long
delay after being cut, and the ends
are painted to avoid rapid drying and
checking of the wood. Pulp wood and
tannin-extract wood may be cut and
shipped at any season of the year.

WATCH WINTER FEED OF cow
Very Easy to Have Grain Ration 80
High That II Won't Pay for
Itself In Milk

The feeding Of cows for milk will
need to be watched more closely than
ever this winter. With cows such as
they run, 1t is very easy to have the
grain ration so high that 1t will not
pay for itself in milk or cream. A
very successful eastern dairyman
feeds his cows only alfalfa hay and
silage with a very little oilmeal, limit
ing the silage to 25 pounds day to
the cow and 20 pounds day to the
heifer, thus getting them to eat more
alfalfa. He admits that dairymen
feeding grain will beat him in amount
of milk produced, but says that his
business is turned at greater profit.
Doubtless true-and he is also putting
all his cows into advanced registry.
