POUNDS OF
Summary Of Results

These cows when fed a balanced
ration at Purdue gave on an aver
age per COW 3,59S pounds more milk
or a gain of II per cent. Also an
average of 1879 pounds more fat
or Sc per cent more than when inn
properly fed. The cost of feed at
Purdue averaged $2S.61 more per
cow than on the farm, but those
COWS returned on an average of
$5740 more above the total feed
cost at Purdue. than when on the
farm.
These COWS were cared for at Pur-
due under average, good barn con-
ditions and millsed twice day.
They were fed alfalfa hay and corn
silage in amounts equal to what
they would consume Approximately
10 pounds of alfalfa hay and so
pounds of corn silage). Their grain
ration was made up as follows: Four
parts ground corn, two parts ground
oats, and one part linseed oil meal
This grain ration was fed to cows
whose milk tested between 3 and a
2St cent fat in proportion of one
BOund of grain to four or five
tnounds Of milk produced. The cows
testing between and 5 per cent
were fed this grain ration in pro-
portion of one pound of grain to
each two and one-half, or three
pounds of milk produced.
The value of the product received
from these cows was figured on the
same basis when the COWS were on
the farm as at Purdue so as to
make the results entirely com
parable.

of their own free wills.
We want our children to love us,
to admire us, to consider us their
best friends; but we expect them to
do this because we believe it the
duty of children to- honor their par
ents. Not ten fathers and mothers
in thousand ever deliberately try
to make themselves attractive to
their children or win their conf
dence.
Perhaps this is why there are so
many boys and girls hurting down
the broad highway to destruction:
why parental influence amounts to
so little, and why the average child
feels that it has less in common with
its own father and mother than it
has with any other man and wom-
an it knows.
We haYe just begun to realize tina
propa ganda is one of the greatest
and most insidious forces on earth.
We have seen it lift men up to the
skies and make gods of them, then
turn and pull them down, and tram
pie them into the dust. We have
seen it eXalt a nation into sainthood
and turn it into a bowling mob. cry
ing for blood. And if it can thus
sway and move grown-up people,
what a weapon it is to use upon the
plastic mind of a child
This being the case, why should
we not "selp' our children the ideals
we wish them to have? Why should
we not feed them on the right prop
uganda from their cradle up? Why
should we not advertise the good
things of life until we make them
50 alluring that the child will want
them?
Why should we not sell righteous
ness to our children? 1t is one thing
to preach and nag at them about
drink, and gambling, and associat-
ing with bad men and women until
you bore them to tears and make
them wonder what is the fascination
of the evil that they are warned so
against. And it is another thing
to make clean living the symbol of
health, and strength, and length Of
days; the respect of ones fellow
men and, above all, the thing that
sets one right with ones own soul.
Why not sell our children educa-
ton? We scourge them to school,

Dairy Cows or Boarders!

Which are you keeping, COWS, or
boarders? II you are keeping cows,
they are rendering you substan-
tial profit. If you are maintaining
boarders, they are not paying their
way. These are two very distinctive
classes Of animals on our Georgia
farms. The time has arrived when
we must find out which are enrich
ing us and which are impoverishing
US. Can this be done? Quite easily.
If you are keeping purebred ami
mails, join a COW testing association
and find out the names of the rob
Der animals right away and get rid
of them. The Importance Of this
matter is we'll illustrated by the re-
suits Of tests made recently, at one
of the northern experiment stations.
The fact that the work was done
somewhere else means just as much
to Georgia farmers aus if 1t were
done in our own state. COWS pear
the same characteristics every
where. They are good and bad we
must learn how to distinguish be-
tween them. The facts deducted
herein were summarized by Profess
sor Frank W. Fitch, field agent in
dairying, who is in charge of the
dairy extension work in Georgia and
who is familier with the type and
AEind of COWS we are keeping and
who realizes the necessity of our
discovering how many boarders we
are carrying and getting rid Of
them. When we do this, we will
put the dairy business in Georgia
on a profitable basis. See just what
it means to you individually to be
sure that your COWS are high-pro-
ducers. Remember, that she can
not make you profit unless you
feed her right.
In order to demonstrate that COW
must have the right kind of feed
before she can produce economically
her maximum amount of milk and
butter fat, the dairy department of
Purdue university purchased five
grade dairy cows from farms where
the cows previous years production
and feed consumed was known,
These COWS had the year before,
been in cow-testing association, but
due to one reason or another, the
owner had failed to feed these cows
either a sufficient amount of feed
of the proper kind for milk produc-
ton.

How to Poison Cotton With Calcium
ArSenate

l.. A. W., Buford, Ga, writes:
| wish to poison my cotton this
year with calcium arsenate. |
want to use it in liquid form
and desire to know what pro-
portion of calcium arsenate, syr-
up and water to use to make the
proper strength.
In the early stages Of the growth
of the cotton plant, it is quite prac-
ticable to protect it from weevil
damage through the use of what
may be termed "molasses mixtures. ="
A good formula may be prepared
as follows: Take three pounds Of
standard, high-grade calcium ar
senate which fully meets the gov
eminent requirements and dissolve
it in a gallon of water. Then stir
this into two gallons OF low grade
syrup. Mix these materials com
pletely and thoroughly and apply
to the bud Of the young cotton plant
with a small, handmade mop. A
gallon and a half of this mixture
should be enough to treat an acre.
This we believe is as satisfactory
a molasseS mixture as any you can
prepare. 1t is also about as cheap
a formula as you can secure and
use while the cotton is small 1t
should be applied as soon as the
weevils begin TO come out of hiber-
nation. The second application
should be made just before the
blooming period begins. After that,
you will have to rely on the use
of dust, which must be applied with
a sufficiently powerful machine to
completely envelop the plant in a
fine, cloud-like spray. The dust
should be applied three times in
succession three to four days apart.
Two or three concentrated applica-
tons may be necessary. Much de
ponds, of course, on the weather cop
ditions, the number of weevils found
in the field. and the amount of dam

TALKS ON HEART AND HOME

which most of them regard as
place "a penance, and where, dull
and bored, they sit up in stolid in,
difference while the dull and bored
teachers go through the perfunctory
routine Of hearing them recite les
sons in which they do not pretend
to take the slightest interest.
But suppose we ~ould really sell
these children the idea of education!
Suppose we could get them as in
terested in history as they are N
stories of adventure; Suppose we
we could make them see that spell
ing and arithmetic are not tasks
that they are the tools with which
they will work when they get their
first jobs as stenogra piers and book
keepers, and that the better they
spell and the quicker they are at
figures the bigger their pay envel-
opes will be!
Suppose we could make them see
that knowledge is power, and that
whether they stay at the foot Of
the ladder or climb to the top is
going to depend on how we'll their
brains are trained! Why, if we
tage Of an education we would not
have to force them to go to school,
They would be eager and anxious
to go.
Suppose we sold our children good
manners. We are always correcting
Johnny at the table about the way
he eats, and he is so used to our
don'ts about walking in front Of
people and keeping his hat on that
he has long since ceased to listen
when we speak. But suppose, from
his earliest infancy, Johnny had
heard Doors ridiculed, and knife
swallowers, and cup cuddlers, and
audible soup eaters held up to scorn
as figures Of fun. Do you not know
that Johnny would as soon think of
committing murder as one of these
Offenses?
And suppose Johnny has had 1t
impressed on him by precept and
example that good manners are a
letter of credit that is honored the
world over; that they will take you
further than anything else on earth
Don't you know that Johnny would
be incapable of loutishness, because
good manners had simply been bred
into him?
Why should we not sell our chill
dren industry and thrift? Propagan-
da again. You can make work the
most thrilling of all games. You can
make, a child feel that his job is Of
great Importance. You can form in
childhood an unbreakable habit of
industry. You can teach the child
how to deny itself little things in
order to save the money for big
things. You can make it feel the
independence of having its own lit.
tie bank account. You can set
goal before it and light the fires of
ambition in its soul.
Finally, why not sell yourself to
your children? Why not make as
much effort to ingratiate yourself
with your children as you would
with a stranger? Why not try to
impress your children with your
ability, your wisdom, your up-to-
dateness, as you would any man or
woman with whom you are trying to
do business?
If parents could only convince
their children that they are not

it would do more than any other
