Mr. Coward smiled anil continued:
“In England, now, we aren’t so

FREQUENT MILKING
We have been asked, says a lead
ing dairyman, if it pays to milk
cows three or four times a day and
what effect such milking has on the
quality of the milk. In reply it may
be said, as often is retorted to ques
tions, “that all depends.” It is
certain that milking three or more
times a day always is advisable
when a cow Is affected with garget
of even the simplest form; for it is
beneficial to gee rid of abnormal
milk as quickly and fully as possi
ble and encourage the secretion of
sound milk. By the frequent and
full milking there can be no doubt,
also, that noxious germs are re
moved from the udder and so are
kept from spreading and invading
the milk secreting cells. When
cows are on official test it is also
customary to milk more than the
ordinary night and morning strip
ping of the udder. The cow in
question is, at that time, usually be
ing fed an abnormal amount of feed
that is excessively rich in protein
elements. Were she not frequently
milked there always would be some
likelihood of garget occurring and
that is ruinous at such a time and
liable permanently to injure the
udder and to lessen the yield of
milk. The frequent milking is like
wise expected somewhat to Increase
the amount of milk produced and
experiments have, if we remember
aright, shown that there is such an
increase, although it would not,
ordinarily, be considered material
or profitable. Expense often ds lost
sight of in the forcing of a dairy
cow under official test, the prime
object being to cause the pnxluction
of an abnormal quantity of milk, no
matte:- what may be the cost, and
possibly without respect to ths fu
ture usefulness of th>* cow for
breeding and dairying purposes. For
ordinary dairying it scarcely can be
considered necessary or profitable
to milk a cow more than twice a
day. Milking three or four times
a day greatly adds to the expense
and, besides. Is considered an in
tolerable nuisance by men who
have to do field work as well as
milking. It is also likely to throw
the cow out of the “usual tenor of
her ways,” disturb her when she
should be grazing or chewing her
cud. and possibly lessen milt: yie'd
In the long run. The official test
cow is not likely to be injuriously
affected in that way, for she is ac
i.uaiumeu uie irequeiu, nuiiuug
from the day of calving until con
clusion of the test and is fed anS
cared for in such a way that there
will be no material disturbance or
irritation to the nervous system.
Nature maintains an average in the
percentage of butterfat and touu
solids in milk. When the periods
or intervals between milks are ex
actly equal, the analysis of the milk,
at each milking, will probably be
practically the same, unless the cows
are turned on pasture during the
day. The morning may be slightly
increased in quantity and richness
after resting than when the cows
have exercised and fought flies.
When cows are milked three tunes
a day the midday milking Is usually
the richest. When the intervals of
time between milkings are unequal,
cows generally yield a smaller
amount of milk after the shorter
period, but this milk is slightly
richer in fat and total solids.
PAPER AND PLANTS
Following the excitement of sev
eral years ago concerning the use of
paper as a mulch on vegetable and
field crops, the three men have
been conducting experiments along
similar lines. Excellent reports were
had last year from the use of paper
around newly planted pecan trees.
These came from Oklahoma, where
the rainfall is not so abundant as
farther east. After setting the tree,
mulch paper was placed around it
covering an area of approximately
:«3 square feet. This was held in
place by pegs and stones, care being
taken hot to disturb the same by
cultivation. The results obtained on
the young trees were excellent. Fig
cuttings protected by runs of paper
grew twice as much in one season
as those not so treated. In the
transplanting of .shrubs and ever
greens, good results have been had
by using ordinary wrapping paper
five or six inches below the surface
of the soil. A good-sized hole is dug
for the plant and filled in with
.soil. Five tr six inches below the
top of the hole, wrapping paper or
newspaper is spread in the hole and
then filling is competed. Plants so
handled pass through dry periods
with little injury. The resourceful
aardner can find many other uses
for paper, which commodity is rap
idly becoming a general garden aid.
PROFITS FROM POULTRY
The feeding, care, and manage
ment of the dairy herd and the
poultry flock are so happily related
that a good farm flock of chickens
may add materially to the farm
profit. Like all factories with a
specific output, the proper type of
breed is the first essential. It is not
too soon now to plan the purchase
of a reasonable number of better
baby chicks than you have been
raising, to brood next spring. Hous
ing becomes important in the care
of the laying hen at this season of
the year—wet litter, uncleaned
roosts, draughty cracks, all take
their toll in lowering vitality and
encouraging disease to come in.
Feeds of the poultry flock are to a
great extent the same as those
raised for the dairy herd. Corn and
small grains are found In the crop
rotation best suited to profitable
dairying. Alfalfa, the all-important
dairy need, also is a poultry neces
sity during the winter months.
When fed either cut or whole in
racks, or when suspended in bun
dles from the ceiling to within 10
inches of the floor, alfalfa furnishes
valuable nutrients, is rich in vita
mins, and helps increase the fer
tillty and hatchabillty of eggs pro
SHIPPING POULTRY
Better investigate before you ship.
For thia is harvest time for the
crooked commission merchant. His
advertisements and letters promis
ing attractive prices are circulating
in the poultry-growing sections of
the country. Each Thanksgiving
and Christmas season brings a new
crop of these parasites. When -the
rarmer investigates to learn why he
has received no money for his ship
ment, he finds that they are no
longer in business. Almost every
body, including the reliable commis
sion merchants, have labored to
prevent this lose to the farmer, but
the farmer himself can prevent it
duced. Skimmilk dried skimmilk,
dried buttermilk and such by-prod
ucts of the dairy industry are val
uable poultry feeds In practical
as well as experimental work skiav
milk has been found to replace
meat scrap where it was consumed
in sufficient quantities. One hun
dred birds should have 3',* to 4
Gallons of skimmilk per day. It is
often fed in place of water where
there is an available, steady supply
from the farm dairy. A western
experiment has demonstrated that
skimmilk is worth $1.60 a hundred
weight when fel to good poultry.
This, when added to the price re
ceived for swe-st cream, would add
materially to the dairy profit of the
farm. Straw, another available
product on a well managed dairy
farm, makes suitable litter for a
poultry house. A clean, dry bad
of eight inches of pood straw keeps
health and happiness in the flock.
TETHERING THE BULL
What chances people run and
what chances they make others face
by the way in which they tether, or
don’t tether, the herd bull, notes
a "safety first” farmer. Were
:t Generally understood and appre
ciated that the bull is the most
dangerous beast i.i the country,
we think more care would be taken
to prevent accidents and tragedies
from occurring. It way be con
tended that the bull is not the most
dangerous "wild beast” in the coun
try; but we feel sure that were
statistics carefully kept they would
show that more peop.e are maimed
or killed outright by bulls each year
than .by nny wild beast that can
be mentioned, the dog possibly ex
cepted. Scarcely a week pa scs
wiLhcut the newspapers recording
the serious or fatal goring of some
farmer or one of his family, or vis
iting friends, or some stranger pass
ing by or venturing into the stock
yard or pasture; nor is this to be
wondered at considering the way
bulls are handled. Were the parti
tion between tlinostrils of the bull
—the septum nasi as it is technical
ly called—made of phosphor fcfbnke,
or the finest tempered steel, it pos
sibly might stand the strain put
upon it without ever giving way;
but the cartilage is not made to
stand the tremendous strain put
upon it by a ton of bull brawn and
muscle when the animal becomes
rampageous, xet we irequeuuy bee
a bull on a front lawn of the larm,
or by the wayside, or in a frailly
fenced paddock merely tied to a
tree or stake by a rope or strap
running to the gunmotal ring in his
nose. The ring is wonderfully
strong, but it may break or the fas
tened ends tear loose; but more oft
en the ring tears through the car
tilage of the septum and there is
then nothing to stay the bull in
his mad charge against ihe unfor
tunate intruder or disturber or in
nocent passerby. It need scarcely
be said that no bull ever should be
tied by the ring alone; nor is it per
fectly safe to lead out the bull by
a rope or strap running into the
ring, or by a staff snapped into the
ring. The halter and extra rope are
necessary precautions and the bull
that is known to be vicious should
have a rope for leading, on each
side of the halter, and a punishing
staff as well. We question the le
gal right of ary man to tie a bull
by the side of the public highway
and it certainly is not right to tie
the animal by the nose-ring alone.
It is as certainly wrong to let the
bull run loose on the highway, and
the legality of letting any bull run
loose in a pasture is questionable.
We shudder when he see a bull at
large in a pasture by the highway
where little children walk, by the
fence side, to and from school, and
note that some of the wires are
down, or rusted and rotten, or the
boards or rails quite inadequate as
a sure obstacle to the bull’s pas.' age
if he starts running amuck. The
fence certainly should be bull
tight and perfectly strong and then
It should only be used to keep cows
in the pasture. A separate pen and
paddock for the herd bull is the
only safe and sane plan of manage
ment. the cows to be brought to
him for service. And once more ir,
may be repeated that even the
“perfectly gentle,’’ “kind as a kit
ten’’ bull is a potential menace.
! There is “no sich anijnile!’’ All
bulls are dangerous and should be
‘ managed accordingly.
SKIM MILK ON FARM
Those who separate and sell
| cream only will find skim-milk
worth more on the farm this year
with a shortage of corn for feeding
hog's and poultry. The Minnesota
station has found that in feeding
pigs, 100 pounds of skimmed milk
replaced half a bushel of corn and
11 pounds of tankage for each 100
pounds in weight. Fourteen sta
tions at which poultry experiments
have been carried on. report that
j skim-milk produced 123 eggs in
eight months as compared to S9
eggs in the same period for hens
fed cottonseed meal and only 56
eggs for hens receiving no protein
supplement during this period. It
has been found that the vitamin de
ficiency in the winter ration when
yellow com is not fed may be cor
rected by feeding alfalfa or al
falfa meal which may be supple
mented in part with skim-milk.
One of the best ways yet* found to
coax high consumption of mash
which will result in greater produc
tion of high-priced eggs on cold
winter days is to give a crumbly
mash moistened with warm skim
milk.
LIME IN rOULTRY HOUSE
When one of those long cold spells
comes and the building needs a
cleaning badly, but the litter is
frozen, sprinkle lime on the floor to
discourage the chickens from peck
ing at the scratch litter. Chickens
won’t walk on lime any more than
