BUILDING UP A HERD
Robber Cows Should Be Disposed
of When Discovered.
Cheapest' Way to Insure Profits I jlo
Use Common Seme and Good
Judgment In Selection of Sire
Tester Is Infallible,
(By It G. WEATHF.H8TONE.)
With butter Belling to tho city cus
tomer at -10 cents' a pouild, and the
price of feed for dairy cows soaring
upward every month, tho question of
the robber cow becomcB more Interest
ing every day. How any man can go
along feeding a lot of scrub cows that
cost moro thnu they earn Is beyond
comprehension. If you havo ten cows
and tho tester shows four of them do
not produco enough milk to pay for
their keep, why not Bell them and put
the proceeds Into ono good cow ono
that will not only Eavo tho loss of tho
robber cow), but earn a net profit of
from $30 to $50 a year? That Is good
business sense, Isn't It?
Hero are Bomo championship milk
and butterfat records that you may
want to refer to somo tlmo when you
want to know tho possibilities of milk
and butter production: Jacoba Irene,
JerMjy cow, mado a record of 15,503
pounds of milk testing 5.5 per cent,
hutterfnt. S.530 pounds; Itcna Ilosa,
AyrcBlilru cow, 15,072 pounds of milk,
testing 4.2G per cent, butterfat, equal
ing 0,432 pounds In a year; Holstoln
cow, Colantha Fourth's Johanna,
27,432.5 pounds of milk, testing 3.04
per 'cent, butterfat, equal to 998.20
pounds In a year; Yoksa Sunbeam,
Guernsey cow, 14,920.8 pounds of
milk, testing 5.74 per cent, butterfat,
equal to 857.15 pounds In a year. In
compiling tho butter yield, add 15 per
cent, to tho butterfat records. Theso

of building up a herd and thero can

and tho poor cow that brings down
the average of the herd cannot hide
her shortcomings. The tester shows
her up every time.
TREATING SCOURS IN CALVES
Common Disease, Caused by Indiges
tion, May Be Traced to Faulty
or Irregular Feeding.
Two kinds of scours affect young
calves, common scours, which are
caused by indigestion, and white
Bcoure, or calf cholera.
Calf cholera la contagious, but If a
calf gets tho disease, it will occur a
few days after birth. If tho pens are
kept 'clean there Is not much danger
from this disease, usually. Stalls used
for calving purposes should be care
fully disinfected after a calf is born.
Common scours, which aro caused
by indigestion, aro much- more com
mon. Tho indigestion may bo traced
to faulty methodB of feeding, tho most
common of which are: Overfeeding,
cold milk, sour milk, irregular feeding,
dirty palls and dirty stables. When
a calf shows signs of the scours, the
milk supply should be reduced one
half, and the amount gradually in
creased as tho calf shows signs of
improvement. This usually will euro
them, but if It does not, -feed about a
tablespoonful of soluble dried blood,
nnd stir in well with tho milk. Dried
blood not only acts as a tonic, but It
has some food value, and is often fed
even when the calves do not havo the
scours.
If tho calves havo the scours very
bad, tho formalin treatment la good.
Add ouo-hnlf ounce of formalin to
15 ounces of dlRtillcd wator to mako
tho solution. Then add ono teaspoon
ful of this mlxturo to each pint of milk
that is fod. This method Is very offec
tivo. 8tart In Poultry.
Tho chcapost way of getting started
In tho business of breeding fine poul
try la to buy eggs and hatch thorn.
Ten or a dozen chicks aro often pro
duced from a sitting of eggs, which
may bo purchased for less than tho
cost of a singlo first-class fowl, and
any ono of the chicks Is worth moro
than the total outlay.

KEEP FARM FLOCK HEALTHY
Sheep Thrive Much Better When Their
Skins Are Clean Good Dip
Also Improves Wool.
Dipping is essential to good flocl
management. No farmer should at

to dip them nt IcaBt annually and In
most enscfj twice a year, according tc
tho advice of II. 13. Allen of tho Indl
ana Agricultural college. When sheet
aro brought to tho farm from othoi
flocks, and especially when trans
ported there by railroads, they should
bo thoroughly dipped beforo allowed
to mlnglo with tho rest of the Hock.
Exporlunco haB taught sheepmen
that bheep thrive much better when
their skins aro clean, and It has been
clearly demonstrated that a good

ticks or other parasites to, thrive prop

Htnnll portions of wool with fatal re
Bulls. A good and regular system oi
dipping tho cntiro Hock is money wel
expended. Ilenco most of tho leading
flockmasters dip twlco in tho- year
once in tho spring and again in the
fall.
Tho object of dipping Is to destroj
tho parasites In tho fleece, such ni
scab mites and sheep ticks and
lico, nnd to prevent subsequent at
tacks from tho namo. In England,
whero shcop raising haB attained lte
highest stnto of perfection, dipping la
required by law at least twlco a year.
Whllo dipping may not bo dono nt
any season, it should, if posslblo, ba
avoided In cold weather for obvious
reasons. Tho most fuvorablo tlmo for
tho spring dipping is a few days
nftcr shearing time. By this time the
ticks will havo largely transferred
from tho owes to tho lambs. At tblb
tlmo comparatively Httlo materia is
needed. If tho flock Is badly Infested
it is Important to repeat the operation
In ten days In order to destroy the in
sects that havo hatched during the
interval. Tho flock should again be
treated In tho fall, so as to go Into
winter frco from parasites.
MARTYNIA IS QUITE USEFUL
Uncommon Vegetable Has Undeserv
edly Become Unpopular Excel
cedent With Mixed Pickles.
(By HUGO EHICH3EN.)
In tho mind of tho average gard
ener, bo he urban, Buburban or rural,
tho culturo of vegetables Is associated
with drudgery which Is in no wise
diverting, and yet, if ono only deviates
from tho beaten paths and Is not
afraid to grow things that are decid
edly uncommon, as much fun can bo
had in tho kitchen garden as in
Flora's domain, and no little profit.
Ono of tho uncommon rvcgetables I
have grown Is tho mnrtynla.
The martynla, known to our fore
fathers as tho martinoes, has unde
servedly becomo unpopular. Perhaps
the disagreeable odor of Its gloxinia
like flowers, and tho peculiar shape
of tho hairy seed-pods that succeed
them had something to do with its
disfavor.
The latter aro responsible for two
other designations of this vegetable
curiosity, for In England, where It Is
grown extensively, it is known as tho
unicorn plant and In Mexico, where
it grows wild, It Is called the devil's
finger-nails.
The pods aro produced in great
abundance and should bo gathered
when less than half grown, as they
are worthless after the hardening of
their substance. They aro pickled In
vinegar like cucumbers and aro very
useful in putting up mixed pickles.
The plants require considerable
warmth, therefore, the seed should
Martynla.
not be sown until the trees are out
in full leaf.
They are planted in rows or hills
three feet apart each way and should
be thinned out thoroughly, as thoy re
quire considerable space. It la a
good plan to sow tho seod In a hotbed
and transfer the young plants to tho
garden in the latter part of April or
as soon as tho weather is Bottled.
Shipping Mares and Foals.
The best way to ship mares with
young foals at foot is to build a par
tition across ono end of a car, bed tho
floor well with good hay and turn
them In looso, Bays tho Horse Breeder.
We havo shipped many in that way
and havo nevor had ono Injured. Tho
maro'that is a good mother will never
step on her foal when it is lying In tho
car. With plenty of good hay for bed
ding mnrea will not Buffer for food
oven though tho train Is delayed a fow
hours. Water in a clcau bucket
should bu offered them frequently.
Yearlings and two-year-olds may be
safely shipped In this manner.
Oats for Poultry.
Tho valuo of oats as a ration for
poultry Is largely offset by the draw
back duo to tho harsh and rough cov
ering. Tho digestlvo operation need
ed to removo this covering requires
to offset It about all the nourishment
the Kernel contains.

A Little Ingenuity and Work Will Pre

Probably no truly domestic woman
ever passes a kitchen cnblnct, so per

patented cabinet, however, doeB not
mean that n woman need do without
the convenience, for with a Uttlo in

she may achieve at homo the same re

will servo admirably to hold two largo
Hour canisters, ono for white und ono

smaller canisters may bo kept corn
meal and sugar, and thero will bo
room also for the break box. A se
ries of shallow shelves built above tho
table, against tho wall, will hold any
number of glass Jars for dry groceries,
spices, etc., and one may now pur
chase aluminum covers, which will
hold a week's supply of sugur or ce
real. Aa many of these aa can be af
forded nnd as aro required should be
purchased and find their plnco on tho
lower shelf. Abovo theso may bo
placed small Jars for raisins, spices,
etc., und all the Ingredients needed for
baking. The other shelves may hold
mixing bowls, cups nnd the like, nnd
at tho Bide of the shelves should be
screwed brass hooks to hold egg beat
er, can opener, mixing spoon, and bo
forth. If tho tablo top Is covered
with zinc, tho cabinet will now be
complete and ready for ubo, and will
leave no longings for a moro elaborate
one. If one does not caro to purchase
tho glass Jars, fruit Jars and Jelly
glasses may be used to hold the gro
ceries. . The Uttlo glass Jara In which
stick candy is Bold, those used for pat
ent medicines and many Blmllar pur
poses, mny all be utilized, as they
accumulate in tho houso nnd serve
tho purpose admirably. Tho whole
