WORLDS GREATEST SALT BED
supply in Lower California, It Is AS
serted Is Beyond Possibility
of Exhaustion.

On Carmen island, in the Gulf Of
Loreto, Lower California, are the great
est salt beds in the world, being two
and half miles wide. The salt is Of
natural formation and lies in super
l'oscd strata 67 inches in thickness and
with a strata of water between each
OF salt. Although excavations of II
feet have been made without failure
Of salt, the extreme depth Of stratfica-
tion is unknown. The surface alone
is worked and as the salt from this Is
carried away, the water from the lower
strata rises to the surface, and after
coming in contact with the air and sun
shine, within a fortnight fills the old
strata with new salt. The salt is dug
out practically pure and by means of
n diminutive railroad is delivered on
at cost of but % cents a
ION. The Jesuit missionaries offered
to entirely support all the California
missions in return for a perpetual
grant to them of Carmen island. but
he king of Spain refused to consider
he propositions 1t has been said that
f all the fleets of Europe gathered
here to load salt they never could ex-
laust 1t. not only on account of the
,reat size of the deposits, but prin-
ipally because the salt Is reproduced

INFERIOR sIREs ELIMINATED
First Count of Scrub Purebreds over
Considerable Area-More Profit
From Herds.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
OF particular interest in live stock
survey recently completed in South
Dakota are figures on the quality OF
purebred sireS, as well as on the num-
Der of scrubs and grades in that re-
gion. Fourteen counties typical OF live
stock conditions in the state were In
Guided in the survey. Of the sires in
herds of cattle 65 per cent were grades
or scrubs, and about Is per cent of
the purebred sires were CNasSe0 as IN
feriOr, according to a part of the re-
ports. This is the first count of scrub
purebreds, over a considerable area
received by the United States depart
ment of agriculture.
It was found that when purebred
sires were used, the average herd OF
20 grade COWS returned $40 more
profit during 1918 than when grade or
scrub sires we're used. It has been es-
timated that the elimination Of inferi-
or purebred Sires would Increase the
average profit in each herd from S54O
to $500 annually.

LEADS TO ODD RELATIONSHIP
Hawaiian Custom of Adoption of Chill
dren Has Been the Cause OF
Amusing Complications.

The very old custom of legal adop-
ton in the Hawaiian islands, which
originated when there were many
tribes often at war with one another,
was intended to bring peace among
them. The cause has long since dis
appeared, but the custom still persists.
When a child is spoken for" by some
relative or friend, the little baby, as
soon as it can leave it's own mother,
will be given to the foster mother, ana
will be regarded as sacred trust. A
Youths Companion contributor tells of
one woman who was the mother Of
eight children, seven of whom had
been adopted by friends. When she
was asked why she gave them away,
she replied sadly: SIT is superstition,
know, but If they are asked for and
] refuse l fear some harm might come
to them" The poor soul let them go
Just because she loved them so much !!
The custom leads to very amusing
complications. One Of the native
princesses now living has given her
baby to her own mother. The little girl
is legally adopted, and therefore has
become the grandmother's daughter.

Do you know how to milk?
The question is neither irrelevant
nor impertinent. In sober fact, a
great many persons who milk cows
twice q day really know little about
the true art of 1t, and a great many
more could add to their present
knowledge.
The writer Of this article met one OF
the men in the dairy division Of the
United States department Of agricul-
ture who knew how to milk. He was
a tall, quiet gentleman.
"Ill just drive the COW in the office
here" he said. And he did. She was
a paStebOard COW, to be sure, but she
served very nicely to illustrate several
things about milking. And following
are few of the essential things that
this man who knows how to milk said
about milking.
First Comes Cleanliness.
The first essentials are clean,
healthy cows and a clean, healthy
mixer.
The next, perhaps, is clean and
sterilized pail with narrow or par
TALLY covered top.
The COW should be curried before
milking to remove loose hairs, dirt and
dandruff. This should be done, if pos

milking process; and the milking, to
be be successful, must be done in such
a way as to promote that secretion
If it is done so as to give pain to the
COW or to alarm or disquiet her. she
will not give so much milk.
Keep milking as long as it is pos
sible to get any milk. The last milk
is the richest. The first milk drawn
is always comparatively low in butter
fat. 1t is the "strippings," or last
milk given, that contain the highest
per cent of butterfat.
Milk Should Be Weighed.
Well. that is about all there is to
the milking process. A great many
things are related to it. The depart
ment of agriculture recommends that
the milk should be weighed daily.
There are several reasons for this.
One is that the ration should be adj
justed to the weight of milk. A safe
rule, the department experts say, is
one pound Of grain tO5every three ana
one-half or four pounds of milk. An
other, and perhaps more accurate
rule is to feed as many pounds OF
grain a day as the COW gives POUNDS
Of butterfat in a week; but this latter
rule Is not so conveniently applied IN
the case Of the family COW, because OF
the necessity of making q BabcOcK
test for butterfat.
The weight of milk produced, IN
proportion to the grain ration, Is OF
particular Importance during the first
80 days after the cow freshens. She
is at that time most easily able TO
establish her working basis. She has
just had her vacation. Her milk
secreting glands are sensitive. her Oil
gestive apparatus active. A few days
after she becomes fresh, increase her
grain one-half or three-quarters OF a
pound a day, and see how much milk
she gives the following day. Keep UP
the increase from day to day as long
as she responds with enough increase
in milk to pay for the increased grain
When the point is reached where the
milk flow fails to increase with in
creased feeding, reduce the grain ra
ton a pound or two, and keep along
this line until the point is found al
which the COW produces the greatest
and most economical flow of milk
Then fix this as her regular grain "a
ton as long as she produces thai
amount of milk.

sible, an hour before milking to allow
all dust to settle before milking Is
begun.
The next thing in order is sort Of
sponge bath for the COW. 1t is very
simple matter though, Tor all that is
required is a pail of clean water and a
cloth. Wash off and wipe the udder,
the TANKS, the thighs and the switch.
That done, everything is ready for
the actual miIking-which process, by
the way, should be approached with
hands that are not only clean, but dry.
The mixer sits down on a stool
placed on the right-hand side of the
COW. It is not very clear just why the
right side is universally the milking
side. Perhaps it is partially due to
the fact that the great majority of
persons are right handed. The mixer
on the right side of the cow, If she
starts to kick or to move, Is in bet
ter position to yank the pail out Of
harms way before she can upset 1t.
The mixer then grasps teat in the
palm of each hand. He squeezes the
teat by closing the fingers around it
and at the same time pulling the teat
slightly downward. Then the fingers
are loosened around the teat and the
hand raised slightly to allow the teat
to assume its original form and posi-
ton, while the other hand squeezes
and pulls slightly downward on the
other teat. Thus each hand alternate
ly gives downward squeeze, In
rhythmic order.
Getting Rid Of Bacteria.
It is wise to milk about two squirts
out of each teat before allowing any
milk to go into the pail. Bacteria ap-
pear to accumulate around the end Of
the teat, and to be got rid of largely
in this way.
Then clasp the small-top milk pail
between the knees, with the covered
portion of the top nearest the mixer.
If held in this position the covered
portion will prevent hairs and dirt
from falling into the milk.
Milk quietly but rapidly. The mixer
makes use of the mother instinct in
the COW. Harshness is against that
instinct and the COW does not secrete
as much milk as she would if she were
MIXED and handled quietly.
1t must be remembered that not all
tie milk is in the udder when the milk
ing process is begun. The COW Sc
cretes milk more rapidly during the

Satisfactory Results Reported From
Number of Cooperative Ship

(Prepared by the United States Depart

The Poinsett county (Ark.) agricul-

agent report satisfactory results from
number of cooperative shipments
Of chickens marketed by farm women
during the early summer. Shippers
listed their poultry in the same man
ner as is employed where hogs or cat
tie are shipped comparatively, using
Monday as shipping day. All the poul-
try was shipped by express from 60
to $50 miles to the Memphis and st.
Louis markets.
A total of 1873 pounds of poultry
was loaded at the shipping point in
July; the total weight at destination
was 1,411 pounds, the aggregate
shrinkage in transit amounting to l62
pounds, or an average of 1913 per cent.
The cost of marketing, including ex-
press, commissions, coop expenses, ETC.,
but not inclusive of shrinkage, was "A
cents a pound while the cost of mar
keting a pound, including the drift
over the railroad was: Hens, 10 cents;
cocks, So cents; and springers, S.5
cents.
The total gross sales amounted to
S421. OF, which left a net return to the
shippers of S352.36 after the shipping
expenses of $6S.71 were deducted. The
market value of this entire shipment
on the local market was only $26S.S9,
so that the net gain through cooper
alive marketing aggregated SS9.47, or
a total of 81 per cent. Twenty-one
shippers participated.
