VALUES OF DAIRY PRODUCTS
Leaders in Fight Against n. g l..
Judged From Economy and Nour-
ishment Furnished.

Since the high cost of living is still
a problem and since New York is one
of the two foremost dairy states of
the union, the workers in dairying and
home economics at the state college at
Ithaca, n. Y, are calling renewed at
tention to the relative cheapness and
high food values of dairy products.
To eat these products is to increase
the prosperity of the state and to
decrease the drain on the pocket
book, because, the folks at Ithaca say,
there is a double advantage to the
New York housewife, from the view
point of economy and of nourishment,
If she makes larger use of them in
the family diet.
Not only do these foods contain the
growth-promoting substances needed
by children, but they are among the
cheapest foods Of animal origin in re-
spect to protein and lime content.
Whole milk, skim-milk, cottage cheese
and American cheddar, or common
"store" cheese, are good, cheap foods
and the workers at Cornell advocate
their use.

When a certain farmer a few years
ago sold his registered Holstein bull
to his local butcher no records had
been made by any Of the bulls
daughters. Within a year II of the
daughters freshened at the ages of
two and three. Records were then
made of milk and butterfat produc
ton, and to the establishment of every
body the average milk production was
H. SOP pounds and the average butter
fat production was 573 pounds.
But before these records were avail
able the bull was dead and his hide
had become leather. Because thero
were no records, a $1,000 bull had
been sold for $50. The cow-testing

COVERING FOR CREAM CANS
Great Part Of Value Is Lost If Product
is Exposed to Sun While Be-
ing Hauled.

A great part of the value of keep
ing cream cool on the farm and at the
station or creamery is lost if the cream
is exposed to the direct rays of the sun
while being hauled from the farm to
the point of sale. Far too few people
stop to realize the Importance of COW
eriEg their cream cans when bringing
them to town. Expensive jacketed
cans are not a necessity to keep the
cream cool. In summer weather just
an ordinary piece of wet burlap thrown
over cans will keep the temperature
Of the cream as much as 20 degrees
below what it would rise to if left I'M

KEEP MANURE UNDER COVER
Amount of Moisture in Pile Can Be
Regulated Much Without
Danger of Leachinq.

The advantage Of keeping manure
under cover, whether piled on the
ground or in pit, is that the amount Of
moisture in the pile can be artifcially
regulated and with less danger of
teaching than if it lies ON the ground.
In the open pit, surplus of moisture
can not result in loss through teaching,
but unless water Or liquid manure is
pumped frequently over the pile it
will fire fang through heating. With
both teaching and heating guarded
against, manure can be kept for con-
siderable periods without serious de-
terioration in fertility. However, it is
always best to get manure onto the
fields and under the surface as soon as
practical. The best place for manure
to rot is in the soil.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment Of AgricuIture.)
Several results of Importance to
western sheep men have been ascer-
tanned by experiments at the govern
ment sheep ranch near Dubois, Idaho,
which has been in operation two years.
Formerly it was customary for range
sheep men to discard ewes which did
not bear lambs when two years old.
Extensive investigations by the depart
men of agriculture have developed
that such ewes are just as valuable for
future breeding as those which bear
lambs as two-year-olds.
Individual records are kept on the
government sheep ranch relative to the
weight of fleece, length of fleece, char
acter of fleece, fineness of fiber and
mutton quality of each animal, while
offspring of each eve. The particular
utility of the results obtained arises
from the fact that the flock is handled
just as are all similar bands Of sheep
in the hands of Wyoming stockmen.
Experiments are being conducted to
develop a type Of sheep more suitable
to the western range conditions than
the types now prevalent. 1t is hoped
to extend this work in both mutton
conformation and length and weight Of
fleece.
There are at present about 1000
head of purebred Rambouillets, Lin
coin Rambouillets, Cotswold Ram
bouillets, Lester Rambouillets and
Romney Rambouillets on the govern
ment ranch. Crossbreeding expert
ments are being conducted with all
these breeds and crosses, as well as
the use of purebred Corriedales, which
have been mated with crOssbred ewes.

RAISE MORE BREEDING SOWS
Remarkable Evidence Of Expansive
Power of Swine Numbers in

prepared by the United States Depart

Even greater than the record num-
Der of breeding sows on farms in the
United States year ago, the number
on April 1 this year reached the I'M
precedented total of 9,97O,OOO, accord
ing to the bureau of crop estimates,
United States department Of agricul
ture. While the average gain for the
whole country over last year is only
O.3 per cent there were gains greater
than this in most Of the states and as
high as 8 per cent in California. Di-
minished numbers in the great swine
states of Iowa, Missouri, Nebraska,
Louisiana and Oklahoma are sufficient
to leave barely gain to the United
States as a whole.

DRYING UP COWS NEGLECTED.
Some Animals Inclined to Keep Up
Heavy Milk Flow Until CaIving
Time-Care Is Needed.

Some cows are inclined to keep up
the heavy milk flow until calving
time, and the dairyman is apt to neg
lect drying them up. Some cows dry
themselves while others must be dried
up by the mixer. Care must be taken
or the udder will be injured. The
best practice is to cut off the grain
feed, giving no grain at all, and in
some cases giving less of other feeds.
The cow should be MIXED only once
day for few days, and then the
period heightened until only once in
four or five days. This should be
kept up until the flow has entirely
ceased.

commended, and when outbreaks are
particularly bad the use of the hopper
dozer is advisable.
There are three or four generations
of the green clover worm season, &C
cording to the bulletin, which allows
ample time for the insect to increase
greatly in a summer. The caterpillars
are killed in considerable numbers by
natural insect enemies, but this
method of control can not be relied
upon for protection Of the alfalfa
crop. The alfalfa should be moved
when the insect is in the caterpillar
or worm stage-from ten days to
three weeks after the time of the ap-
pearance of the moths in great abun-
dance. To insure success the field
should be left as clean and bare as
possible in order to remove the food
supply and any shelter protecting
them from the direct rays of the sun,
which hastens their destruction.
Clear Fields of Insects.
If these measures can not be carried
out without injury to the alfalfa,
either from premature cutting or too
prolonged delay, wait until the alfalfa
is ready for another cutting. 1t ought
to be possible, however, before the
summer is passed, to clear the fields
of this insect in this manner.
In the eastern states premature cut
ting often results in permanent injury
to alfalfa, especially while it is young,
and for this reason the cutting of this
crop much in advance Of the normal
period is not recommended.
AS the caterpillar feeds on many
different plants, ditch banks and fence
rows should be kept free from weeds.
The caterpillars have been caught
readily by dragging field with hop
perdozer, such as is used for grass
hopper outbreaks. It does not hurt the
alfalfa when not used to excess, and
will catch many injurious insects.
