Selection Of Dairy Cow
~
bv Production Is Best

It is agreed by all authorities that
where records of production are OBJ
tainable, the selection of a dairy cow
by production is best. If a record of
milk and butterfat show that a COW
has been profitable producer for one
year, this may be accepted as an in
dex to her real productive ability.
The weight Of milk and average fat
test for one day, or even seven con-
secutive days, is not a dependable
guide for the selection of the best
dairy cow.
A yearly record for each COW may
be made by weighing and testing the
milk two consecutive days in each
month, figuring the average daily
yield thus obtained for the 80 days
in that particular month. At the end
of the lactation period the sum of the
weights Of fat for all the months will
give very close estimate of the ac-
tual pounds of butterfat produced dur
ing the lactatiOn period
Record sheets for milk and butter
fat are obtainable from various
sources.
Cows will sell for a much higher
price if records of production can be
furnished.

POULTRY HOUSE
QUITE IMPORTANT

Chickens raised on grandfather's
farm roasted in the apple tree or on
the binder reel because these places
were accessible, convenient and nei-
ther crowded nor stuffy, it is pointed
out by w. A. Foster of the farm me-
chanics department, college of agri-
culture, University Of Illinois This
choice Of biddy's should be a valuable
guide to the modern pOultryman who
is planning to build new chicken
house or remodel the old one, Foster
says. :
Suitable housing is just as impOr
tant as the care of the flock because
it provides for the comfort Of the
birds at all seasons. Furthermore, 1t
is convenient for the attendant In
addition, to be effective and efficient
the house should be simple in con-
struction in order to keep the cost and
upkeep low A neat, attractive house
adds to the appearance of the build
ing group and value of the farm.
"The comfort of the birds is secured
through freedom from dampness and
drafts and provisions for ample floor
space in feeding and roost space for
night. An abundant supply of fresh
air and sunlight promotec the health
vigor and comfort of the birds.
"a dry house requires a dry floor
placed on a porous, well-drained site,
a iead-proof roof, tight walls and
close-fitted doors and windows. Proper
ventilation supplies fresh air to the
birds, removes the moisture from the
breathed air and litter and minimizes
drafts, which are disastrous to the
flock when the birds are inactive on
the roosts at night. This ventilation
may be provided in several ways. The
apple-tree rOOsts of a generation ago
were well ventilated The open ma
chine shelter where the range fOcks
like to roost is also we'll ventilated.
Biddys choice, then, may require a
little thought on our part. Why did
she choose perch on the harvester's
reel? 1t was accessible, convenient
and neither crowded nor stuffy as
many rOosts in the modern hen house.
"Open-front houses provide venti-
lation and sunlight, but must be used
with common sense to avoid undesir-
able drafts. A southern exposure is
desirable. Modern ventilation equip
ment has advanced many steps in re-
cent years. 1t is not yet fool-proof,
but will require further study and
intelligent handling.
"a poultry house OF simple construc-
tion is not only desirable but neces-
sary to the success Of the venture.
Simple construction enables the at
tendant to build houses and install
equipment which would be prohibitive
if skilled labor was employed
"A neat, attractive, well-kept poul-
try house surrounded by a healthy,
vigorous flock should be the pride of
every poultry raiser. 1t is not only
encouraging to the owner but an asset
In marketing the products"

Fairy Tale
6IWARY GRAHAM BONNER
S- coPTnonT VtSTtsH HtvspAPsR
THE SICK DEER

"You are the most beautiful fawn
baby" said Mrs. Deer to the little
deer who had been in the world so
short time.
Mrs. Deer was often called Mrs.
Doe, which was her regular name, and
the baby deer was usually called the
fawn.
But Mrs. Doe, or Mother Deer, called
the baby deer her beautiful one" and
her precious child"
When the fawn had first come into
the world Mother Deer had refused
to let anyone else touch her baby.
She must care for him and see that
he was looked after in just the way
she thought best.
And she was his mother. She knew
best She would see that he was
looked after all right.
Now the keeper knew this was the
way of a mother deer whether in the
zoo or free If anyone else touched
her baby first she was apt to disown
him.
Her baby must be hers entirely for
a little while. Then the keeper could
bring him food and look after him
and the daddy deer could admire him.
For the daddies in the deer families
like their young. So many of the dad
dies in the animal world do not like
the little ones when they are really
small. They wait until they grow old
er to notice them.
But not so with the daddies in the
deer family.
One day, though, the little deer
caught a cold. 1t was one of those
unavoidable accidents that sometimes
happen.
Certainly Mother Deer had taken
the best of loving and watchful care
of her baby.
But sometimes these things will
happen.
Just how the little fawn had caught
his cold, poor mother deer did not
know.
But his head was hot and his eyes
seemed larger than ever and he
seemed to be so afraid, so dreadfully

Liberal Application of
Manure Best for Garden

Soil must be much richer for sue
cessful gardening than for general
farming. Liberal application of ma
nure therefore will be beneficial. Stable
manure should be applied broadcast at
the rate of 40 tons an acre. When
the garden is plowed in the fall the
manure is more nearly Incorporated In
the soil, the land can be worked earlier
in the spring, the plowing is done and
operations may start just as soon as
spring opens. The manure adds plant
food and organic matter to the soil
and thus improves both it's chemical
and mechanical condition.
When manure is not available, or
ganic matter may be added to the
soil by growing and turning under
a cover crop. When legumes are
used for this, nitrogen also is added
to the soil IF the ground is poor,
commercial fertilizer may be applied
'ust after working the soil next spring.

afraid of this, great big world which
sent baby deer such a queer feeling
in his head and all through his ach-
ing limbs
Mother, mother" his eyes seemed
to say, you won't let me leave you?
''Oh, mother, love you SOL
81 want to be near you-always.
81 love you, Mother Doe, darling,
dear Mother Deer!''
The baby was old enough now so
that the keeper came near him and
the mother was glad Of the keepers
help. Only when the baby had been
very young had the keeper not been
allowed near.
1t was no ones fault that the baby
was i'll now-not even the baby's fault,
mo, no, indeed.
When the keeper came around that
day he found that the baby deer had
suddenly become really quite ILL.,
He had taken real chill and had a
high fever.
The keeper put bandageS on his
head and gave him something hot to
drink
Then he saw that all the other ami
mals were safe for the night.
Back he came where the sick baby
was by his mother.
His eyes were begging her to save
him and her eyes were looking at the
keeper.
"Save my baby, save him." she
moaned In talk which the keeper un-
lderstood.
II will, WILL" the keeper said.
All through that night, while the
baby deer sometimes slept restlessly,
Iand sometimes tossed about with the
fever and the aches and pains, the
keeper watched over him and nursed
him, giving him medicines, and rub
bing his tired limbs.
II don't know, I don't know at all,
Mother Doe" the keeper tried to tell
her, "but 1 am doing my best"
And Mother Deer knew that he was.
In the morning when the baby deer
took turn for the better, and when
in few days he was well, the mother
deer and the baby deer kissed the
keeper, while their beautiful, happy.
expressive eyes said:
Thank you"

Vigor of Orchard Will
Depend on the Prunin

~ O14
Much Of the vigor and health of the
orchard depends upon the annual
pruning. Most of the work is done In
late winter or spring. However, light
pruning in summer Is desirable, par
ticularly with young trees.
The following things should be kept
in mind in pruning. If the following
directions are thought of, there is little
possibility Of injuring the trees:
1. Be careful to not remove the
fruit spurs, in case of old trees.
2. Remove all dead or diseased
parts and burn them. This serves to
kill all disease germs contained in the
rotten parts.
3. Cut out all broken limbs.
f. Prune out all those twigs which
strike across the body of the tree.
5. When two or more limbs extend
along the same line or closely parallel
each other, prune away the less vigor-
Gus.
6. Thin head Of tree to permit
plenty of light to come to the other
parts.
Z. Cut back some Of the growth on
young trees or on any that grow rapid
ly. fourth or half of such growth
Is often pruned back.

Why She Asked

The new vicar was coming to tea
with the small girls mother, and the
child waylaid him at the gate.
"Will you please see how many
times you can run round the garden"
she said, politely.
I couldn't, my dear child" said the
vicar, in surprised tones. But WHY
do you ask?"
"Oh, merely because daddie said
you were so long -winded."

Live Stock Notes

Build the self-feeders so they will
be ready for the spring crop of live
stock, say farm engineering workers
Make the sheep barn warm, to be
in shape for the lambing season. A
little extra care means lambs saved.
In the production of baby beef, the
calves must be kept fat Since calves
grow more readily than they fatten,
they must be fed more grain and less
hay and forage than older steers. BY
feeding a mixture of grains they will
eat more than if only one kind is fed
Arizona state miner., 1926-04-17
Bacteria in Milk

No matter how carefully milk may
be produced, it always contains some
bacteria. These organisms grow rap
idly as long as the milk is warm.
Prompt cooling to below so degrees
Fahrenheit checks their growth. Milk
should be cooled with the coldest wa
ter available, and should receive it's
final cooling with ice, except in cases
where the available water supply will
cool the milk to below SO degrees
Fahrenheit.

Good Care at Calving

The cow that has just calved should
receive no feed for the first "A hours
unless it be a bran mash. Many
successful dairymen offer only a
bucket of slightly warmed water dur
ing the first day. Feeding should be
gradually increased over weeks
time, and if the cow is a heavy pro-
ducer, she should not be on a full ra-
tion for two or three weeks. Better
underfeed than overfeed at this time.

COURTHOUSE, Canton, Ohio,
Dec. l3.-Chief Defense Counsel
Mills denounced Don r. Mellet, Can
ton publisher, who was slain last
July during the midst of his activi-
ties to rid Canton of municipal cor
ruption, in his opening address to
