This has been a fruitful week on
our 40 Virginia acres.
Our Jersey COW decided to have
her calf five days ahead of schedule,
and the turkey eggs we set under a
New Hampshire Red hen began
Matching the same day.
The result was that We had a
beautiful heifer calf in the pine
woods, and nest OF young turkeys
that had Matched out two days be-
fore we had reckoned on their ar
rival. The observation Of our 12-
year-old daughter was that Moth
ers Day had been moved up"
The calf was born on one Of those
hot April days. The COW had fin-
ished her morning feed and had
gone of into the woods. We thought
she was getting away from the sun,
since the calf was not due for al
most a week.
BY chance We wandered over to
the woods in the early afternoon
and found the COW and her new
calf under pine tree The COW
greeted us with a small moo-an
invitation to come closer and see
the calf. The kids were beside
themselves, particularly when they
learned it was heifer, for this
meant we would keep the calf and
they would be allowed to raise it.
In the three weeks we have had
our cow she has made herself al
most part of the family and has
taken to following us about the
field like a dog. With SO many
eager hands about, I am sure the
calf will always be under foot.

Work Traps on Farms Studied
Survey Finds Dairymen Can Correct
Bad Layouts to Save Labor

Many Maryland dairymen work
longer and harder than necessary
to maintain the efficiency of their
herds. according to . survey con-
Quoted At the University Of Mary
land.
It disclosed. for example, that
farm efnciency can be increased in
many cases by changing the layout
Of dairy buildings, by revisions In
feeding methods and by increasing
milking speeds.
Barn layout Is q major factor al
fecting the time required to care for
cows. Bank barns represent q prob
lem IN renovation. Their narrow
feed alleys, distractions and dead
ends make the use Of labor saving
equipment difncult.
In many older barns the cows face
In. rather than out, increasing the
travel distance In doing chores. Ere
quently the stanchions are too small
for the cows.
Many farmers, the survey showed,
are solving these problems by con-
structing new milking barns and
using the old bank barns for dairy
replacements, bulls and dry cows.
The use Of milking machines
proved the greatest time saver for
chore jobs, the report said. Average
machine milking time was SIS min
utes per COW compared to 81 minutes
per COW for hand milking.
Grain and silage feeding was SIM
plif1ed and time savings were ac-
complished where feeding carts were
used. In one barn a cart was in
troduced that eliminated So per cent
OF the distance formerly walked in
feeding. Farmers using the wider
ensilage fork saved more labor than

Plant Now for Winter Bouquets
Annuals Given Among Items Desirable
For Drying-Keep Stems Straight

The Limoniums are not happy in
heavy clay soils and. while they will
produce some growth and flowers in
heavy soil. they do best in the
sandy loans. They are weak
stemmed and need stalking. Cata-
nache is best treated as a biennial,

bloom from seed sown in early
spring.

sembles clover, when dried lasts ex-

dry easily, otherwise they would be
of little value in the garden. The
Helipterum Is a most attractive,
dainty little strawfiower.
The harvesting of these flowers
for drying is best done when they
are not quite fully opened. The
exception is the strawflower, which
is best when cut from one-third to
one-half open. If allowed to open
fully some of these flowers fade and
lose their colors. The Honesty plant,
whose transparent seed pods are the
useful part. is not harvested until
late fall. This Is to allow as many
seed pods as possible to ripen. They
do not shed their outer coating until
mature.
In harvesting for drying 1t is de-
sirable to cut the stems as long as
possible. In making an arrange
ment it is an easy matter to shorten
the stems to fit the needs. but i'm
possible to lengthen a stem.
Strip the leaves before tying in
bundles, step that is taken before
hanging up the flowers to dry. Dried
flower leaves are seldom attractive
and for this reason are normally re-
moved. For foliage we may use
evergreen clippings and dried
grasses.
The bundles are best tied with
rubber bands, although string may
be used. Where string is used it
will be necessary to tighten occa-
sionally, otherwise the flowers may
slide out OF the loop, as the stems
shrink in drying. Hang the punches

The survey disclosed wide vari-

OF manure and clean barns. While
some farmers loaded manure
spreaders directly from the central
barn alley, many used wheelbarrows.
And in some instances these barrows
were pushed uphill to outside ma

to get them to start eating. But
like our neighbor, Tweed Howser,
said, they don't understand her
language.
Finally one started eating and
then another. And after hours of
pushing them under the hen they
seemed to get the idea and almost
any time now you can see a small
head peeking out from a mass of
f1uf1ed feathers. We don't like to
be too optimistic, but we're planning
on having at least one turkey left
for Thanksgiving.
1t was indeed fruitful day,
While We had been occupied with
the COW and the turkeys, other
things had been happening. As we
sat in the yard at twilight a rabbit
and her brood came out to play in
the field below the house.
We watched them scamper about
until darkness fell and they hoped

BY instinct dog when first con-
fronted by barrier will crawl
under it rather than jump blindly
over. Out in the field with one of
my hunting dogs, ! have noticed
tnat in ninety-nine cases out of a
hundred. he will crawl under q wire
five or six inches above the ground
rather than 90 through two wide
ly spaced strands just above him.
Many times dog, coming to a
single strand OF wire over which
he could easily jump, will crawl
under it instead. Yet, if taken over
the same course again, he will in
variably jump over the single
strand of wire. I wonder why.
Once knew of a dog who had
craving for asparagus butts, though
most dogs won't touch them. I
knew three dogs which would
ravage raspberry vines. daintily
picking ripe berries by the dozen,
while most dogs won't eat berries.
I've known dogs who have reveled
in grapes and learned to pluck
them from the vines, whereas hun
dreds Of dogs refuse to eat grapes.
A very few have even developed a
fondness for ripe apples.
What does it all prove? Chiefly
that dogs differ in their gastrono-
mic tastes almost as much as do
humans. Yet we try to formulate
rules for a single balanced diet
which is supposed to please and
nouriSh all dogs alike. There is no
such diet.
In = general way, We know what
foods the average dog likes and
what diet will or won't agree with
him. But, If your dog has a fickle
appetite, find out by experiment

Life on 10 ACres-A Calf Is Born

One of the most charming things
about a newly freShened cow is the
way in which she talks to her calf
From the barn. where we have fixed
a large stall with deep straw bed
ding, come low, short moos that
sound like short blasts from a river
steamboat heard at a distance.
We also were interested in the
way nature guides the very young.
Our calf wobbled about for about
30 minutes before she was able to
stand. Then, without hesitation, but
with some fumbling. she took her
first nouriShment. In few hours
she was strong enough to follow her
mother to the barn.
Jerseys are said to be nervous and
eXcitable, but we don't find this true
Of ours. In strictly bovine manner
she seems to be pleased when we
come about. She knows, of course,
that we are novlces at milking, and
this seems to make her more patient
at our clumsy efforts.
A fine cow, we think, and there
wouldn't be money enough to buy
her.
In another way the turkeys have
given us some surprises. We had
heard how dumb they can be, but
weren't prepared for everything that
happened
1t appears that in breeding tur-
keys for more meat the poultry
people have just about bred out of
the birds their instinct for survival.
We are convinced that a young
turkey would rather die than live.
We had set 10 eggs under the New
Hampshire Red hen and eight of
them Matched. Almost Immediately
three died, leaving us with five
poults. We bought 10 more poults
from hatchery, thus giving our
hen family of IS.
First off, we learned that a young
turkey doesn't know how to eat or
drink. 1t hasn't sense enough to
get under the hen when it gets cold
and will stand In the rain and
drown when shelter is only a few
inches away.
Our hen did the best she could.

as an attic, garage or back porch.
Cool. moist situations are conducive
to mildew and discoloration.
While this article deals only with
the ANIMALS that are useful for win
ter bouquets, it should not be as
sumed that ANIMALS alone will pro-
vide the flower arranger with all OF
the material desired for winter bou-
quets Seed pods, perennial flowers
(dried), weeds. berries and many
other materials available in field
and wood as well as the home gar
den are useful and desirable. 1t
takes bit of this and some Of that
to give variety interest and distinc-
ton to the winter bouquet.

BY W. N. Younomon

Winter bouquets are again becom-
Ing popular since many have found
them just as interesting and chal-
Longing to arrange as fresh flowers.
II Is relatively easy to grow many
kinds of ANIMALS which can be dried
and used in such bouquets.
While many will think of winter
bouquets in terms of berried shrubs
and grasses, others will find that
these easily grown ANIMALS give
wider latitude to the types and
forms OF arrangements. The ever
green's may be called upon to pro-
vide some of the foliage for winter
bouquets, but that is comparatively
easy since most gardeners have
hemlockS, arbor- vitae and other
conifers that need some judicious
pruning. Dried grasses also will
provide useful foliage to go with
the dried flowers.
Most Of the ANIMALS grown for
dried cut flowers are of easy cul-
fure, the Limoniums (statice) being
the exception. Like most other an
nuals, they are sun loving and
adapted to the sunny garden. Un-
like other ANIMALS, though, they
are not particularly useful in the
flower border because II properly
harvested they are cut before they
have fully opened and thus they
provide little or no color in the
garden. If space does not permit
otherwise they may be grown in the
sunny flower border and part of
the flowers allowed to remain for
garden effect.
When grown in the flower border
the taller growing strawfiowers,
immortelle. Cupid's dart and cocks
comb (CelosiaD need to be kept in
the background. The latter, you
may say, is too heavy for the smaller
flower arrangement II the feathery
type of cockscomb is used as well
as some of the smaller secondary
spikes, this objection will be over
come.
The following list contains most
OF the ANIMALS that are useful for
drying:

Deep working is desirable so as to
insure a cool root run with ample
moisture holding materials.
In pulling the clumps apart take
only the outside divisions, preferably
those with two or three shoots.

Much of the lack Of vigor and
bloom of rhododendronS, azaleas and
laurel may be traced to the lack of
a leafmold mulch in the late sum-
mer and fall, the period when they
are forming flower buds for next
springs display. 1t is not too late
to collect leaves and pile them
around these shrubs.
Crowded plants seldom have enough
food and moisture to make normal
growth. The root crops need space
in which to spread. Don't be afraid
to pull out half to two-thirds of
the plants that appear in the row.
Lettuce, unless thinned to 6 inches
apart. will never resemble the
bunchy plants offered for sale in the
stores.
1t is too early to move tender
house plants into the garden for
their summer rest.
Most lawns are in greater need
this spring, than ever before, of an
application of plant food. The large
numbers of Jap beetle grubs that
have been feeding on the roots of
the grass plants have severely weak
ened them. They need extra care.
An application Of to pounds of
commercial fertilizer per 100
square feet well watered into the
soil with the hose will help to offset
in part this injury. w H v
