Drinking of Water
(BY V. M PIERCE, M. D.)
The.gcnernl conclusions of tho latest
Medical Scientists proves that drink
ing plenty of pure water both between
meals and with, one's meals Is bene
ficial to health. It has now be'en prov
en by means of tho X-rays nnd actual
tests upon many healthy young men
that tho drinking of large amounts of
watex with meals is often beneficial.
Therefore if you want to keep healthy
drink plenty of pure water (not ico
water), both with your meals and be
tween meals. If you ever suffer from
backacho, lumbago, rheumatism, or any
of the symptoms of kidney trouble
such as deep colored urlno, sediment

iOOD REMEDY FOR RINGWORM
University Farm Expert Recommends
Iodine and Acetlo Acid Treat
mentCaused by Parasites.
(By M. H. REYNOLDS, Veterinarian,
University Farm, St. Paul.)
Ringworm appears most commonly
In cattle as1 n round, slightly raised,
bald.patch, being seen especially about
tho head and neck of a calf or year
ling. "Older cattle, other animals and
men are subject to tho trouble. It Is
caused by minute vegetable parasites
which grow under tho skin, something
like mildew In a grape leaf.
Ringworm can bo rather easily
cured by giving tho spots a good scrub
bing with soft sonp nnd water, then
treating them once each day with
equal parts of tlncturo of iodine and
glacial acetic acid. The treatment
may bo continued for several days, as
appears necessary.
KEEP GARDEN SOIL FERTILE
Without Good Fertility Farmer Cannot
Hope to Realize High Profits
Take Care of Manure.
A primary consideration in every
gardening project Is to make and keep
tho soli as fertile as possible. With
out high fertility wo cannot hope to
reallzo high profits.
Use lime occasionally sb that tho
clovers will thrive Seo that nn amplo
supply of phosphorus Is furnished all
crops. Grow green manurlal crops as
much us possible.
Take caro of tho stable manuro pro
duced on your own placo and uso it
whero it wlil do tho most good. Buy
stable manure when tho price is right.
USE LOW WAGON FOR SILAGE
Although Draft Is One-Third Greater
Than High-Wheeled Vehicle, Labor
Saved Counts Most
A wagon with low wheels for use in
tho harvesting of corn for sllngo is
recommended by U. O. Rnrasower of
tho Ohio Collego of Agriculture. Al
though the draft is approximately one
third greater than that of a higher
wheeled wagon the saving of man labor
Is of greater Importance. Aside from
its uso In the handling of silage it can
be of great mlvantago for many other
farm operations.

DRY UP PERSISTENT MILKER
Safo and 8lmple Process Is: Don't
Milk Her Vacation Is Qood for
Heavy Ylelders.
Occasionally It Is desirable to dry
up n cow in order to fatten her for
beef. The snfo nnd slmplo process is
don't milk her.
Moro often tho question Is asked
whether It is wise to dry up n per
sistent milker a fow weeks beforo
calving, nnd If so, what is the sn'fo and
slmplo process.
It Is generally believed thnt n short
vacation period Is good for heavy
ylelders. Thero nro cows thnt will
give several quarts of milk n day up
to tho tlmo of cnlvtng. In tho long
run these cows will prove to be tho
profltublo members of tho herd, even
If they do not nlwnys stnr,t oft with
n big flow when fresh.
If for nny reason It Is desired to dry
oft u cow thnt Is soon to calve, it Is
snfo to milk her onco u day ng

FARM TRACTOR IN OPERATION
Man Handy With Machinery Will Get

A farmer who Is handy with ma
chinery will get much moro use out of
his farm tractor than tho man who
only knows how to stnrt and stop tho
engine nnd guldo the tractor. It is tho
most useful piece of mnchlncry ono
can havo about tho place, and can bo
used for n hundred different things.
A modern trnctor developing eight to
sixteen horso power will go almost any
whero thnt a horso will go and it will
do mnny things tho horso cannot do.
It will pump water, grind feed, run
tho snw, cut silage, do tho threshing,
tho plowing and pull tho binder if
necessary.
It will pull a road drag and can bo
used to pull heavy logs or timbers from
placo to plncc. Every farmer should

by 8ome Owners.
To prevent the nlr from reaching
the sllngo all silos must have air-tight
walls. Theso must bo rigid enough
not to bo sprung out of shnpo by tho
pressure of tho silage, permitting alt

Not only tho walls but tho doors
also must bo perfectly air-tight. To
accomplish this they should bo well

Tnr paper is successfully used by
somo silo owners, either In strips to

Not only should tho walls bo tight

of tho adjoining sllngo to rot.
VALUE OF CORN AND SILAGE
Net Profit of From $50 to $100 for an
Acre Obtained' by Many Ex

Corn that will raako 00 bushels of com
to tho acre "will, as a rule, make 12
tons of silage which will contain about
Boven pounds of shelled corn in every
100 pounds of silage. Sllngo cat) bo

$1.7C n ton. An acre of GO-bushel corn
costs tho farmer, in tho silo, about $20.
This Includes rent for his land, and nil
labor in growing nnd putting up tho
crop. Mnny experienced dairymen as
sert that they market their sllngo via
the milk route for from $0 to $10 per
ton. This makes a net profit of from
$C0 to $100 for an aero of good silage.
