The Missouri Experiment Sritio has Just published the results of :h i ets. and these tend to show t; i . . milk is better than meat scraps 1 very way. Seventv-flve pullets were ue> 1 i the experiment. Twenty-five were fe all the sour milk they could dtink : addition to a mixture of two part whole corn and one part wheat oaf ed in the litter, and a dry mash c wheat bran, middlings and cornm : fed in a hopper. The second lot of twentv-fivo nnllet did not receive sour milk to drink, lu In place of it they were given m a craps in the masn and the same who! frain. The third lot received only ;!i wheat bran, middlings and corn mos dry mash, and the whole com an wheat in the litter. The cost of feeding each hen vrr. $1.05 for the milk lot, $1.02% for fh * ?i/-,t SO.95% ce- i tneiil sua|79 -v? tor ?he no meat nor milk lot. Th GROW GOOD STRAWBERRIES Portion of Every Home Garden Shoulc Be Devoted to Strawberries to 8upply Fresh Fruit for Table. Clemson College. S. C. portion of every home garder should be devoted to strawberies. Thej are easy to grow, do well on practical ly every kind of soil, and a very smal! area is sufficient to supply the family By planting varieties that ripen ir succession, fresh fruit may be hac from early spring until late in th< summer. In the early fall, until the first of November, is the best time t< set the plants. Delighting in <00 weather, if set at this time they wil become well established by spring, ant will be able to resist droughts wliicl /u<mir at this season. In selecting plants for the new b^l only the strongest or the pre'-en mm?=_... ? --- year'e runners should be us J 7 '* roots of new plants are always white which distinguishe them from o'ae plants whose roots are always black Previous to planting, remove a por tlon of the leaf surface to lessen evan oration, and shear the roots to abou one-half if they are very long. A com mon mistake in planting is to scoot out a shallow hole and thrust th< plant into it, leaving the roots ?crumpled mass with their tips nea the surface where they quickly dry out. To .ovoid this .n.ake a deep hol< with a spade or long-pointed trowel, in Bert the roots and spread them out fai <0-~-e ~"r',.vir>'r tuem to hang dowi full length.

It is well during the H: -? sen son to pinch off all the fruitinv as they appear in order that the < r tire strength of t!v plant may be d rected to the deveionment of fh crown and leaves. By the end of h season, the plants should have thiol broad crowns, ea'-h holding ih. r.r. ments of several ?tnlks of berries a" containing plaint food in sui.icien quantity to produce a maximum ero the second season. A strawberry led may beer tv: three to five crops if given careful a' tention, but it is better to allow plants to fruit only twice. As ih bed gets older, the plants ! >v weakened and often diseased. For th very highest gra 1" berries, the p!;1 should be allowed to fruit only one and a new bud set annually.

"'v v DEEDING DA!RY COWS FOR MILK AND PROFIT Cow Should Be Fed Sufficient Balanced Ration to Produce Maximum Amount of Milk Clemsom College, S. O. Liberal feeding of dairy cows Is necessary for profitable production. Cows ire feed for two purposes; body main-' enanee and milk production. A great many farmers in South Carolina keep ows which are fed only sufficient feed to enable them to perform their iwii functions, such as heating the; body, pumping the blood, digesting the feed and moving about. Cows fed only such "maintenance rations" are necessarily money losers or 'boarders." The cow r an produce milk without loss >f body weight only after she has been fed a sufficient amount to maintain ier body functions, and a surplus from which to manufacture the milk. The maintenance ration is a fixed charge, and the more feed a cow can consume above that required for main:enance, the g^atei* the amount of feed available for milk production. From the standpoint of economical production, one can afford to give a cow all the fed she will consume wifhout gaining In weight, and no more. A good cow will generally lose in weight in the early part of the lactation period and gain in the latter part. Such cows should be fed liberally with the assurance that they ...ill ?r\r> flm ftvtvo fnarl /Turinff tkfl I V\ I 11 I'd J 1VU I HO V. AH *4. LWVU UUI*liO VUV next lactation period. The most common mistake made In this state is that of not feeding the ows in summer when on pasture, ^ven with the very best pasture a 'ow cannot give her maximum produc'ion on pasture alone. Cows giving 20 >ounds or more of milk should have at least 3 pounds of grain feed even when sn the best pastures. When pasture Is poor and flies are bad the cows will return a profit on more grain feed than the above, and should receive It. The best dairymen In the state are beginning to realize, the value of summer milage, and are building silos of small diameter for summer feeding. When the grass Is short and flies worry the "ows'so that they cannot feed as they should on grass, a silo for summer feeding is good insurance. If it is found unnecessary to use the silo dur* ing t(he summer, it can be sealed up md the silage fed the following winter. The best roughage feeds to be fed with silage In this state are alfalf*, r-rimson clover, vetch, cowpea hay and <ov bean hay. All of the above feeds are legumes, and contain a high percentage of protein, a very necessary clement in milk production. Cotonseed meal, peanut meal, wheat bran and corn meal are the most common grain feeds used in the South. 01 Ihese, the value of wheat bran used with cottonseed meal Is probably the least appreciated. This Is a bulky feed, has a laxative effect (the opposite >f the cotton seed meal), and contain* lime, potash and phosphorous which go to build up the cow's body. None jf the above grain feeds should be fed tlone. They should be mixed in order to get a balanced ration. Cows should eceive 1 pound of the grain mixture :o 3 pounds of milk produced daily, ot ipproximately 3 pounds of grain feed o a gallon of milk. This, with all the ?ood roughage thev will consume will I five a cow sufficient feed nutrients K or maximum economic production. I Jl RORS FOR FALL TERR. ?
