The milking oi' a few cr.vs: supplies a daily cash income and converts roughage which otherwise has no j cash value into a condensed cash pr?/.l-j 11 / f T io A/\o i?j\f ir? f - ! 1 n uli. Ai i4 %? Ai,uv/co AH'L i:.in :i JV* the growing of grain crops. Feeds 1 or the milk cow grow when grain ?:vp?F fail, dairying converts comparatively ; idle time between the crop growing j seasons into cash. This latter point is \ especially important. A year round business from which cash returns are obtained is the thing most needed by the farmer, particularly so while he is home building. The man who depends upon grain crops is a gambler with the weather, insect pests and markets to the fullest extent. The milking of a few cows, resulting in a monthly income of $35 to $40, removes the gambling element to a very great extent, and failure of crops does not cripple as when crop farming is the main dependence. When dairying supplies the income necessary to take care of the farm expenses from month to month the grocery and dry goods bills and other necessary expenditures do no: accumulate and absorb the income to be realized from the growing crop. Overfeeding Horses With Hay. Too much hay fed to the farm horse Is an injury and often lessens his work ing efficiency, according to the Oregon experiment station. Every time n horse inflates his lungs the stomach is displaced, and if this organ is kept full of bulky food extra work is imposed on the respiratory system. Heaves, colic . and other forms of indigestion are often due to this cause. There is also a waste that should be conserved. A horse weighing a thousand pounds will do more work and keeji in better health on fifteen pounds of hay daily than on twenty pounds. Feed hira ten pounds at night and five pounds in the morning, and he will perform more labor with greater ease than ho would if hay were kept before him all the time. A horse weighing 1,500 to 1,800 pounds' does not need more than twenty pounds! of hay a day, and the rest of his uutri-- 4 ment should be grain. Dehorning Cows. * ^ ^ n r?.. >1 O sff Al* UiJ IlUl U^JiUtU o uiiiii calving.. The pain of the operation is very slight, but the flow of milk may ( show a decrease for a few days. The cattle may be dehorned on grass pasture and at any time before fly time.| Do not let'the cows have access to a straw stack after dehorning, as they will get chaff in the wounds. It is a good plan to cover the wound3 with pine tar and absorbent cotton to stop the bleeding, though many do not do this. Milk cows should have this done, though it might not be necessary with beef cattle. Cut the horns off any time before fly time and after the cows have dropped their calves. STARTIMJHElflRSE | "ATlPRillG WORK; , Property fitted Colters Protect i _ Totirior Shftflf/tefvNfc, \ ^ I Villi VI VUUUItfVtUf ^ ? -? ; ' j With horses going Into heavy labor' in very thin condition many of them' will not fill their collars as snugly as in former years. This will necessarily create more sore shoulders and necks than commonly. The collar should fit up tightly, so there will be no extra room between the collar and the neck. ' If a collar has been used it can fre| quently be buckled up a notch tighter j to remove the slack. Keep the collar smooth by rubbing with the hands. Do ' not u&e* a knife nor currycomb, as eitlier leaves the surface Faugh and irritates and causes sores. Wash the shoulders or neck at night with cold water and remove all surplus hair or dirt so as to leave the stirface smooth: then upply lime-sulphur , and tannin in three equal parts. This is a powder. Hub it thoroughly, as it heals and toughens the surface. There < is little need to have sores if care is taken. With a late spring and weak horses it behooves every one using horses to be as careful with them as possible. Always see that the collars are cleaned up before you put them away. After the team has been working a few hours in the morning it is always well to lift the collars and clean them off. Many teamsters take off the hames during the noon hour in order that the strain may be taken from the horses' necks. Stunted Pigs. Be careful not to treat in any way or feed your pip; so as to stunt their growth, for a pig once stunted never ean be fed so economically as before the stunted period of his life began, and he will never be such a hog as he ftherwise would have been. Old Hena Not Profitable. It is not profitable to keep old hena. On the average hen9 will lay 75 per cent as many eggs In their second year as they will during their first. After this they will seldom lay enough eggs at market price to pay for their feed.
