Total Returns From Eve
Estimated at About $50

A sheep or lamb carcass has value
only once as such, and that is when
sold for slaughter. Speaking general
", a eve, when bred for her first
lamb, is at the most valuable period
Of her life, If the sheep and lamb
market does not fluctuate. If worth
$40 then, she is worth, on the average,
only about 81 when discarded after
having produced, say, FIVE lambs. Dur
ing her useful life Of seven years she
produces seven fleeces Of about eight
pounds each and worth As cents a
pound at present prices. She there
fore grows wool to the value Of $500.
On the average she will raise about
four lambs during her five breeding
years, and one of these will be re-
tanned to replace the dam, three being
sold for slaughter or fattening at 81
each, or $21 for the lambs. The eve
will sell for about 81, making S25 re-
ceived from animal sales and $3.50
from wool sales, or a total Of 5000.

Ropiness in Milk Caused
by Growth of Bacteria

A ropy or Shiny condition of milk,
sometimes noticeable after the milk
has stood several hours, is caused by
the growth of a certain class of bac-
terra which gain entrance after the
milk is drawn.
Though probably not more injurious
than ordinary sour milk, this condi-
ton is especially troublesome, as the
bacteria are passed along through YES
sells and otherwise to other milk and
even to the diaries of an entire com
munity.
The remedy is thorough washing and
~sterilizing of everything that in any
way comes in contact with, the milk.
Chlorinated lime, or bleaching powder,
at the rate of IL or 16 ounces to the
100 gallons of water is recommended
by the dairy department Of the Ohio
experiment station as a safe and ef-
fective disinfectant.

Intestinal Worms Very
Harmful to Iowa Fowls

Many Iowa flocks are being ruined
through the prevalence Of intestinal
worms, according to r. T. Parkhurst,
poultryman with the extension divi-
sion Of Iowa State college. Such
worms cause nonproduction, lack of
growth and oftentimes death, besides
making the birds susceptible to other
poultry ailments.
Birds affected with worms will be-
come thin, despite a good appetite,
and after a while grow ~listless and
dull. This Is especially the case
where overcrowding occurs, as with a
large flock and a small poultry house.
The best method to get rid of these
worms is to- feed the chickens a tonic
made from II quarts of mash, either
dry or wet, mixed with one pound of
epson salts and one pound of dry
sulphur. Give them daily for three or
four days all they will clean up In ten
or fifteen minutes.
1t is a good plan to see that all
refuse is removed from the quarters
and sanitary conditions are provided.

Emden-Toulouse Cross Is
Favored for Holidays

The cross of the African gander with
common geese Is considered excellent.
This mating gives larger goslings than
common stock, and they make an at
tractive carcass when picked. The
Rhode Island experiment station made
some experimental crosses of geese.
The results are:
1.-THE Emden-Toulouse would appear
to be the best all-around cross for gen.
eral purposes for both early and late
markets, and especially for the produc-
ton of large geese for the Christmas
and New Years markets. They are
large, hardy and, when dressed, pre-
sen a fine appearance. The Emden-
African cross seems to be next in de
STABILITY, and II goslings are sold early
in the summer, or before they are eight
weeks old, this cross would be prefer
able to all others. The lei White
China cross picked the easiest Of these
crosses, the birds were white when
dressed and, although small, presented
the most attractive appearance"

Hand Rearing of Orphan
Foals Is Difficult Job

With the best of good fortune there
are always a few orphan foals to be
cared for every year, and their feed
ing is a problem to those who have
never attempted 1t ON artificial food
supplies.
Hand-rearing Is not an easy task
and involves close attention to details.
Naturally cows milk is the common
substitute for the milk of the dam,
but 1t requires some slight modifica-
ton. If possible choose a COW that
has calved recently and one whose
milk is not rich in butterfat.
Dissolve about a tablespoonful Of
sugar-preferably white sugar-in a
little warm water. To this add three
to five ~tablespoonfuls Of lime water,
and then a sufficient quantity Of cows
milk to make a pint. Lime water not
only serves to dilute the milk, but 1t
also tends to correct digestive trou-
bles.
The amount to feed Is about one
quarter to half a pint at each feeding
at first. The feeding periods should
be about one hour apart for the first
few days.
When a foal suckles, 1t does so IRE
quently, but it only takes a small
amount at a time.

When Pullets Begin to
Lay Get Them Into Coop

Experienced poultrymen have found
that if pullets are allowed to remain
very long OF the range after starting
to lay, the change to winter houses Is
sure to check them and may cause a
fall mott.
Cornell backs them in saying that
IS soon as the first eggs are found on
the range, at least a third or a fourth
of the best-developed birds should be
placed in winter quarters.
When the remaining birds show ina
turity, they should be put in winter
quarters also.
A thorough cleaning and disinfect-
ing of the houses and pens in which
the pullets are to live is advocated.
This is especially true If the birds
that formerly occupied the building
have been diseased or have had worms.
Artificial lights should not be used
on pullets until they have had a
chance to respond to normal condi-
lions. If they do not respond quickly
enough, or If neck mott starts, then
light can be used with good effect.
Many flocks Of pullets take cold
after their removal to winter quarters
because they are kept in tightly closed
houses. All windows and curtains in
the front of the houses should be wide
open night and day until really cold
weather sets in. Even in the middle Of
the winter, the cloth curtains should
not be entirely closed.
Lack of ventilation causes dampness
in the houses and this, in turn, results
In colds and roup.

Increase Productiveness
of Herd by Better Sires

Keeping books with your cows is
the only sure way to build a herd Of
high producers. By selecting cows on
their records, discarding the unproft-
able ones, using only good pure bred
sires, and raising heifer calves from
the best cows, one is sure to increase
the productiveness of the herd.
1t is also advisable to weigh each
milking because it enables n to feed
intelligently and If sickness, neglect
or abuse has caused a COW to drop in
milk a remedy may be applied before
the loss becomes serious.
Weighing milk creates interest
among the mixers and encourages
clean milking and careful treatment
of the cows.
The greatest source Of loss to the
dairy industry is the Improbable COW.
A certain cheese factory paid one of
its patrons $S77 for the product Of
eight COWS while it gave another
patron $S6S for the milk from % cows.
1t pays to keep records.

fifty turns on q 3h-inch tube, and the

To sum UP the advantages Of this

cult tuner brings in slightly louder
signals than a three-clrcuit regenera-
tor, due to the close coupling inherent
in the former. The t~hree-circuit set,

tive. By the S of the intermediate

was compared to corn and cob meal
for feeding cows. The corn was broken
on the cob and compared to corn
crushed in the ear; 6 pounds wheat
bran, 10 pounds corn stover and 9.4
pounds of hay produced 202 pounds
milk with SO pounds of fat for each

LIVE STOCK
FACTS
Stock for Show
Requires Careful Work

Fitting cattle for show means the
preparation of an animal to appear at
it's best. With the meat-producing
animals, ~fattening is the most i'm
portant part of fitting, but the fat
must be firmly and evenly laid on.
This holds true with breeding animals
as well as market stock. While the
breeding animal may never 60 directly
to the block its value depends on it's
ultimate ability to produce meat stock.
1t cannot demonstrate this ability in
thin condition. The judge has to
make his award on the animal as 1t
appears before him, not on what 1t
might be like II given a fair chance.
The failures of new exhibitors are
mainly due to poor fitting and show
Ing. Most judges prefer to encourage
new exhibitors where possible, and
generally regret to turn down good
possibilities for lack of condition.
Getting an animal fat enough is
only part of the problem. It is a
greater problem to get it at its best at
just the right time. After show cattle
have reached their prime, their flesh
may get hard or too soft and blub-
berry. Sheep may be so highly fitted
that they are practically ruined for
breeding purposes. Ideal condition or
"bloom" is reached when the covering
of fat is evenly distributed owe the
body and Is springy, but firm and
smooth. Rolls or Jumps of fat that
appear on the ribs or around the tail
head are Objectionable, but are some
times hard to avoid. Where animals
are to be carried in show condition
over a fair season lasting five or six
months, they are started in compare
lively light condition, both on account
of the warm weather and the danger
of OVERRIDING them later.

Set That Brings
Louder Signals
Satisfactory Regenerative
Tuner Is Modification
of Marconi Type.
py BERTRAM w. DOWNS

The set here described is absolutely
the last word" In regenerative tuners.
1t is a modification of the old Marconi
multiple tuner" which was at one
time the standard equipment in the old
Marconi ship and shore commercial
stations.
Besides eliminating one adjustment,
the secondary coupling, this set has
the advantage Of bringing in louder
signals than the standard three-circuit
regeneration, and at the same time be-
ing more selectiye. How these results
are made possible will be explained
below.
Referring to the diagram, it will be
seer that this tuner possesses an I'M
tuned intermediate circuit which trans
fers the energy from the primary to
the secondary coils. This circuit con-
sists of two and one-half turns of
heavy stranded wire (Litzendraht or
several strands of lamp cord will
serve admirably about the primary
and secondary coils. The efficiency of
this circuit depends upon reducing the
resistance Of this intermediate section
to as near zero as possible.
The primary and secondary are
mounted at right angles to each other,
so that the only transfer Of energy
will be through the intermediate closed
circuit.
The functioning Of this circuit Is as
follows: In transferring the energy
from the primary to the secondary the
character Of the wave Is changed from
one Of @ given decrement to a wave of
relatively lower decrement-that is, a
broad wave becomes Sharp in the
secondary circuit, due to the negligible
damping Of the intermediate link cir
cult. This, of course, means that less
interference will be experienced from
stations whose wave-lengths are near
ly the anne.
For best results the link circuit coils
should be wound about the part of the
primary and secondary that is in cir
cult at all times. This will insure the
maximum transfer Of energy at all

Lack of Cleanliness Is
Cause of ManV Diseases

Nearly all disorders or diseases of
calves, says the United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture, are caused either
directly or indirectly by lack of clean
illness. Filth, whether it is in feed,
pens, bedding or pals and utensils, is
dangerous to the health Of the calf.
To be on the safe side use nothing
but clean milk (sweet or sour), scald
the pals or sterilize them with steam,
remove old feed from the boxes and
clean them daily. Filth and dirt are
the natural breeding places Of many
bacteria that will cause disturbances
in the young animals stomach. Free
dom from filth usually means freedom
from disease.

The hen-house should be thoroughly
