DAIRY PROFITS MAY DROP
IF cows NEEDS sLIoHTED

The time of the year Is about here
when the profits from Kentucky farm
dairy herds begin TO drop unless the
cows are given good feed and kept in
comfortable barns. according to J. J..
Hooper, head Of the dairy department
OF the College of Agriculture. Al
though Kentucky winters are not as
long or as severe as those OF the fa-
nous dairy sections of the north, the
same careful methods that help the
northern dairymen and farmers get
bigger profits from their dairy cows
can be used to advantage by farmers
in this state.
From now until next spring. cows
should have a pound Of mixed feed
for every three an done-half pounds
of milk that they give, and in addi-
ton should be fed 10 pounds of clo-
yer. alfalfa or cowpes hay and 80
pounds Of silage daily. A good grain
mixture may be made of four pounds
of corn meal, two pounds of bran or
shipstuff and two pounds of cotton
seed meal. If silage cannot be fed,
some succulent feed, like beet pulp.
should be used unless the cows can
get plenty of green grass.
Dairy cows cannot be given good
care at this time of the year unless
they are kept in barn all night and
part of the day. This being the case,
comfort and healthful surroundings
for the COW are of first importance.
Plenty Of light, good ventilation and
lots of clean bedding are the big
items in making the COW comfortable.
There should be four square feet of
window glass for each stall or stanch-
ion, while the windows should be well
distributed so that each stable gets
plenty of light In order to get
enough air, each COW requires at least
500 cubic feet of space. The air in
the stable must be changed frequent
ly if it is to stay fresh at all times.
This should be done without causing
drafts of cold air on the cows or with
out undulay lowering the tempera-
ture in the stable. Fresh air may be
admitted through windows hinged at
the bottom and tipping inward.
Bedding the cows freely twice a
day with clean straw helps to keep
them clean and comfortable. Just
before milking is a good time to clean
up and add fresh straw"

Uncle Jimmy is what might be call
ed a man without a country. He was
born on the ocean. on an old sailing
vessel which took fourteen wekes to
come from Liverpool to New York.
There we're no steamships in those
days, he said. He said his father
came from Ireland and his mother
from England. His father was an ex-

this country, and later has wife fol-

Uncle Jimmy says he travelled all

years ago, when he gave up the road.
He was married in Louisville forty
years ago. One son was born, but
died at the age of six years.
Uncle Jimmy declares that the big
gest hit of his life was when he sang

BARRED ROCK PULLET SETS
NEW MARK ON STATION FARM

All previous records for the num-
ual hens in the experiment station
fiocks of the College of Agriculture
have been broken by a Barred Rock
pullet that has just completed her
first year of laying with a total of 263
egs to her credit, according to an an
nouncement of j. Holmes Martin. in
charge of the college poultry work
This is three more eggs than were
laid by White Leghorn hen that
has held the farm record since 1919.
The most striking thing about the
new record as seen by poultrymen is
that good breeding, the right kind of
feed and proper care made it possible
for hen to lay 200 eggs more in a
year than the average hen on Ken
lucky farms lays. The new holder of
the farm record is the result of only
station poultrymen to get Barred Ply
mouth Rocks that will lay a large
number of eggs in a year.
The new record holder started lay
ing November 3, 1921, 'and from that
time until her first year was complet-
ed laid consistently every month.
Now that her first year of laying has
been finished. the amount of protein
that has been fed her in the past is
being cut down so that she will go
into a molt and come back into lay
ing in time to produce eggs for the
spring Matching season. She laid rs

OLD CIRCUS CLOWN, u,
LIVES IN LIVINGSTON |

James Christopher Cunningham,
who lives at Vicksburg, KY, up the
Cumberland river from Smithland, is
quite an interesting character. He
10 nearly II years old, but moves
about as sprightly as a man much
younger He does much manual la
Dor in garden time and paints houses
during the warmer months. He can
hold the attention of anyone in re-
iating his experiences of his young
er days.
Uncle Jimmy travelled with Hamlin
wizard Oil Company for some time
as a black-face comedian. Many peo-
pie will reminder when the Wizard
Oh people drove through this part of
the country selling Wizard Oil and
giving free performances 'on the
large and beautiful wagon. Four big
gray horses were used. He said it
was about thirty-five years ago when
he started from Bridgeport, Coma,
gsang direct to New Orleans and
through Texas with this company.
They visited many of the west Ken
tucky towns.
Later Uncle Jimmy was clown
in circus and among the shows
where he did funny acts were p, T.
Rarnum, john Robinson. John
O'Brien Dan Rice and John Murray.
The latter show was not known in
this section as it showed only in the
east. He started out with Dan Rice's
famous show at Columbus, Ohio.
At the age of IS years, Uncle jim
nav joined the Barnum circus in Phil

the centennial He came to Living

an Italian brass band. One day when
this show was preparing to give an
exhibition at Yicksburg Uncle JIM
~ was beating the bass drum, when
the leader instructed him to give it
hell" He did so, by taking his pock
stknife and ripping the head of the
dram wide open. The show company
was about ready to disband, he said,
and this act finished it. Mr.. Gun
amgham has been in this county
about thirty-three years and after
the show quit he says he decided to
stay here as he liked the town so
well He worked on David Adams
farm for 81 month and his wife did
Ae cooking. 1t might be stated
right here that Mrs. Cunningham
died few months ago, having lost
her eyesight a number of years ago.
Uncle Jimmy was injured while
