RUNTY ANIMAL UNPROFITABLE
Undersized and UndeveIoped Animals
Usually Caused by Improper
Care and Poor Feed.

Niggardly methods of feeding and
caring for farm live stock are I'M
profitable This is one conclusion re-
sulting from an inquiry conducted by
the United States Department of Agri-
culture into the causes and preven-
ton of runtiness among farm ami
mails. Seventy-flve per cent Of under
sized and undeveloped animals, ac-
cording to a summary Of more than
700 opinions advanced by livestock
owners, are due to inferior breeding,
inadequate or unsuitable feed, and
pests. such as parasites and insects.
The remedy is the better care of
better stock, and the cost of this
remedy, in the opinion Of practical
farmers, is much cheaper than the ex-
pense of continuing to raise under
sized and slow-maturing domestic
animals. "Better raise one good COW
than two poor ones-a runt is nothing
but expense all it's life." This opinion,
which is typical of many others, is
from a Michigan dairyman. A thrifty
New Englander sums up sentiment on
this topic with the remark, II find I
cannot cheat the animal without
cheating myself"

FRANCES E. WILLARD MUSEUM
Wis, Dedicated to Memory OF
Great Temperance Leader.

Log cabins and marble palaces,
courthouses and round towers are now
and again turned into museums in the
memory of some historic person. More
rarely the building is schoolhouse,
but such is the case with the new
Frances E. Willard museum. The lit
tie country schoolhouse near James,
vile, Wis.,, has recently been dedicated
by followers of the American temper
ance leader, among them former pu-
pills of Miss Willartl's in Wesleyan
seminary and at Northwestern univer-
sity, and national officers of the Wom-
ans Christian Temperance union. The
schoolhouse is far from imposing. Miss
Willard referred to it once as "a sort
of big ground-nut," but it symbolizes
the progress of a child who came into
a wilderness with her pioneer family,
and through her good work gained
place for herself in the Hall of Fame
at Washington, the only woman so
honored.

WEAK BLOOD IS
A REAL BARRIER
Growing Children Often Need
Guides Pepto- Mangan.

Some children grow too Quickly-it
saps their strength. They lapse into
careless, desultory habits, or develop
shrinking attitude. Their faces look
pinched.
The blood becomes overtaxed by too
rapid growth; and poisons from the
system take the place of strength-giv-
ing red corpuscles in the blood. Red
corpuscles are those little red particles
that swim in blood and give it its color.
Gradually that child loses interest in
its play.
Poor blood needs the building that
the iron in Gude's Pepto- -Mangan gives
to weakened blood. GUIDES Pepto-M Man.

the number of red corpuscles, and re-

LEGUMIN0US HAYS FOR cows
Corn SiIage ls Excellent Feed, but
Not a Balanced One-Legumes
Furnish Protein.

(Prepaled by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
The best kinds Of dry roughage for
feeding dairy cows in connection with
corn silage or roots are leguminous
hays, such as alfalfa, red, crimson, or
alsike clover, and soy bean or cow
pea hay, in the opinion of experts OF
the United States Department Of Ag-
riculture. While corn silage is an ex.
cellent feed, it is not balanced one,
as it does not contain sufficient pro-
tein and mineral matter to meet fully
the requirements Of the COW. The
leguminous hays, in addition to be-
ing very palatable, tend to correct
this deficiency. They are also among
the best and cheapest sources Of
protein.
One or more of these hays can be
grown on practically any farm. In
addition to their value for feeding
purposes, they improve the soil in
which they grow. Hay from Canada
field peas, sown with oats to prevent
the peas from lodging, also makes
an excellent roughage.
Corn stover, sorghum, etc., also
find q good market through the dairy
COW. This class of roughage is low
in protein, however, and when it is
used the grain ration must be richer
in this element.
No positive rule can be laid down
as to the quantity of dry roughage
that should be fed, but from to II
pounds day for each COW, in addition
to silage, will be found satisfactory
In most cases.
When the dry roughage is Of poor
quality, such as coarse, woody hay or
a poor grade of cornstalks, large por-
tion can often be given to advantage,
allowing the COW to pick out the best
and using the rejected part for bed
ding. With this quantity of dry rough
age the COW will take, according to

HIGH-PRODUCING' DAIRY COWS
To Increase Productiveness Of Herd It
Is Necessary to Begin With
individuals.

Increasing the productiveness Of a
dairy herd through selection must be-
gin with the individual as a unit.
Cows with the best performance rec
ords are mated to a bull backed by a
line of high-producing ancestors.
Even this will not guarantee offspring
equal to their parents in productive
ness, since the law of chance operates
to make results uncertain However,
the average will be as good as their
parents and some will exceed their
dams record. The best producers are
