Just exactly how much the diff
erent portions of a cows single
milking vary in butterfat content
lis strilingly shown in recent
study by the New York experiment
station on the milk produced by
one cow. The first portion, weigh
ing 3.2 pounds, tested slightly less
than four-fifths of one per cent
butterfat. The third portion of
4.6 pounds jumped up to 5. 35 per
cent in test, and the last portion,
weighing 5.8 pounds, tested 9.8
per cent. This last 5.8 pounds of
this cows milk carried over half of
the OBS pounds of fat she pro-
duced in the one milking.
Experienced dairy farmers know
that the highest producing cows
can be made dry readily, simply
by incomplete milking. They know,
too, that highest production can be
maintained only by getting every
drop of milk from the udder at
each milking and that it pays big
to spend little extra time on each
cow to get the strippings, the rich
est part of the whole milking.

die of July so as to kill out all
weeds, quack grass, pigeon grass
and fox tail. Then seed the al
falfa alone, using a corrugated
roller on the ground before and
after seeding.
The use of a corrugated roller
does a good many things to the
soil that are beneficial to the little
alfalfa plants. 1t breaks up the
clods so the soil will be mellow and
easy for the alfalfa roots to pene-
trate. Also, it will make it easy
for the moisture to make avail
able plant food that is stored up in
these clods, which while in the clod
form, will be unavailable as the
little alfalfa plant root couldn't
penetrate them. Also in cloddy,
loose soil, there are lots of air
spaces which the little alfalfa roots
get into and the hot air and winds
circulating in these spaces dry up
these little roots. So it is easy to
picture in your mind, how these lit
tie alfalfa roots can do so much
better in a nice, firm, well pulver-
lied seedbed.
Fifty years of experience has
taught farmers that they can de.
pend only upon genuine Grimm or
Cossack. alfalfa here in Minnesota
over a long period of years, in or
der to have plenty of alfalfa hay
for our live stock every winter. We
have found that it is important to
innoculate our seed, both for sweet
clover and alfalfa, on all new
fields. Also, the experience of the
5000 farmers that l have visited
with, whose fields I have inspected,
has convinced us that it is foolish
to take the chance on expecting a
rain to come and beat our soil
down good and firm after the seed
ing of alfalfa.
Don't take a chance. Borrow
one of these rollers from a neigh
Dor or make up one, or if you have
sufficient acreage, it will pay you
to purchase one and use it on all
seedlings of alfalfa, sweet clover
and other grass seeds.
Genuine Grimm and Cossack AL
falfa seed are scarce and we are
endeavoring to get more alfalfa in
every county in the state. So why
use fifteen to twenty pounds Of
seed per acre when by firming
down the seedbed, the seed doubles
the acreage by using roller, and
you get just as good a stand with
a less amount of seed. The al
falfa and sweet clover plants will
get their roots down deep in the
ground during the early weeks
and months of their lives, so that
when the hot winds come or you
cut off the nurse crop, they will be
in touch with the lower soils that
are mellow and where the moisture
has been conserved.
And when the roots once get in
the ground 21a to feet deep it
will take more than the average
drought to kill out your Grimm
or Cossack Alfalfa.

Dust the Rose Bushes

Dooe TIC ANSSS DAcASS
Among the various diseases
which attack rose bushes in spring
to which nearly all varieties are
susceptible, a characteristic symp-
tom of powdery mildew, is the
powdery whitish coating which ap-
pears early in the season on the
leaves, usually soon after they
begin to develop. If the weather
is warm or ruggy in the late
spring, this disease develops very
rapidly. If severe, the growth of
the rose bush will be stunted, the
leaves will curl, dry and drop off,
and the unopened buds, stems, and
thorns will be covered with the
powdery coat. Although the plant
seldom dies, it does not develop
normally and the foliage is disfig-
ured, sufficient reason for control
ling the mildew. The fungicide
which has proved most effective for
home gardeners is a dust of nine
parts of busting sulphur (not flow
ers of sulphur) and one part Of
dry arsenate of lead. (The arse
nate of lead also.helps to control

when the air is fairly dry and

Demonstration Proves
Cows Last Milk Richest
Thorough Stripping at Each Milk
ing Prevents Cows From Going
Prematurely Dry

Stripping or drawing the last
drop of milk from each cow at
every milking insures greater pro-
duction and higher profits from the
dairy herd, declares the Blue Val
ley Creamery Institute.
Stripping the COW is important
for two reasons, declares the In
stitute. One is that the last portion
of the milk in the cows udder is
the richest in butterfat, the part
on which the cash value of milk
and cream is based. The other is
that milking the cow dry at each
milking stimulates her production
and prevents COW going dry many
weeks before she should, as often
is the case when even a small por-
ton of milk is retained by the COW
at each milking.

Agricultural Notes
Drainage Makes The Cellar D.,

Drainage Makes The Cellar Dry
A dry cellar promotes the COM
fort, convenience and health of
those living in the house. Where
it is possible to obtain a drainage
outlet, the simplest and sures
method of getting rid Of water in
a cellar is to lay a 4-inch tile drain
along the outside bottom of the
footing course or wall on the side
or sides from which the water
comes. Where the presence of
trees or shrubbery or the cost of
excavation makes it inadvisable to
lay drain outside of the founda-
ton, the drain is frequently laid
along the inside bottom of the
wall. A drain thus located gener-
ally removes water pressure from
the cellar floor but is not as effec-
tive as an outside drain for pre-
venting the entrance of seepage
and dampness from the earth back
of the wall. Cellars are sometimes

Senator Shipstead still has re-

Time to be Thinking
of the Spray Program

Apple trees should be given their
first spraying when the first flow
er buds show pink, the second spray
as soon as the petals drop from the
flowers and before the calyx closes,
and the third the last week of
June or the first week of July.
The spray material should be made
up in the proportions of one and
a half pounds of arsenate of lead
(powdered) five quarts of CONNER
cial lime-sulphur if liquid or four
pounds if dry, and so gallons of
water. If the apple maggot is
troublesome, other sprays should
be given about July 20 and August
6.
The same spray should be used
for plums, with applications just
before the blossoms open, just af-
ter the petals fall, when the plums
are the size of small peas, and when
the fruit first starts to color. If
lice appear on apples, plums, or
plants in early spring, as the buds
are bursting, spray with nicotine

Poultry Record Farms
Score Good Average

The standard production of eggs
per hen for February is IL. Min
nesota's poultry record farm focks,
owners of which report every
month to the poultry extension
service of the university, surpassed
the average production by about
half point. Some 1910 birds in
62 of these focks laid 182,542
eggs. Production ranged from
20.5 eggs per hen in the high
flock to A in the low flock. Seven
of the ten highest fiocks were fed
a mash, and five of the seven had
the help of artificial lights either
in the morning or evening. One
flock was served an evening lunch
at $3.50 p. m. All were given cod
liver oil and produced more uni

shells as result.
