Milk Cow Given Proper
Rest Will Produce More

The old saying that bushel of
corn before cow freshens is worth
two bushels after freshening Is true.
A milk COW, given rest of from six
weeks to eight weeks before freshen-

she will calve in good condition, will
produce from twenty to forty pounds
more butterfat than COW not having
rest.

Tobacco Stalks Fine as
Top Dressing for Gras

The tobacco stalks left after the
leaves have been stripped have a
high fertilizing value. The Kentucky
experiment station is authority for
the statement that ton of tobacco
stalks contain about as much nitrogen
and potash as 8 tons of stable manure.
They are fine for top-dressing grass
