BUILDING UP A HERD Robber Cows Should Be Disposed of When Discovered. til 6 mi Cona Syrup. J '4 In time. Bot Syrup. Tastes Good. Bold by Dmrrletf. Vs. Cheapest Way to Insure Profits Is to Use Common Sense and Good Judgment In Selection of Sire Tester Is Infallible. (By R. G. WT2ATHERSTONE.) With butter selling to the city cus tomer at 40 cents a pound, and the price of feed for dairy cows (soaring upward every month, the question of the robber, cow becomes more interest ing every day. How any man can go along feeding a lot of scrub cows that cost more than they earn is beyond comprehension. If,-you have ten cows and the tester showstfourof them do not produce enough milk to pay for their keep, why not sell them and put the proceeds into one good cow one that will not only save the loss of the robber cows, but earn a net profit of from $30 to $50 a year? That is good business sense, isn't it? Here are some championship milk and butterfat records that you may want to refer to some time when you want to know the possibilities of milk and butter production: Jacoba Irene, Jersey cow, made a record of 15,503 pounds of milk testing 5.5 per - cent butterfat, 8,539 pounds; Rena Ross, Ayreshire cow, 15,072 pounds of milk, testing 4.26 per cent, butterfat, equal ing 6,432 pounds in a year; Holstein cow, Colantha Fourth's Jphanna, 27,432.5 pounds of milk, testing 3.64 per cent, butterfat, equal to 998.26 pounds in a year; Yeksa Sunbeam, Guernsey cow, 14,920.8 pounds of milk, testing 5.74 per cent, butterfat equal to 857.15 pounds in a year. In computing the butter yield, add 15 per cent, to the butterfat records. These are possible yields under the best con ditions bv something less than one cow in a million. Of course, we cannot all own such, cows as these, but we can buy an oc casional bull calf from these strains and by crossing him with good grade cows build up a milk profit herd and never miss the cost. The universal KEEP FARM LOCK HEALTHY Sheep Thrive Much Better When Their Skins . Are Clean Good Dip Also Improves Wool. Dipping Is essential to good flock management. No fanner should at tempt to raise sheep without planning to dip them at least annually and in most cases twice a year, according to the advice of II. E. Allen of the Indi ana Agricultural college. When sheep are brought to the farm from other flocks, and especially when trans ported there by railroads, they Bhould be thoroughly dipped before allowed to mingle with the rest of the flock. Experience has taught sheepmen that sheep thrive much better when their skins are clean, and it has been clearly demonstrated that a good dip increases the quantity- and - im proves the quality of the wool. It is impossible for lambs infested : With ticks or other parasites to thrive prop erly, owing to the constant irritation set up. In trying to get relief lambs often nibble at the fleece and swallow small portions of wool with fatal; re sults. A good and regular system of dipping the entire flock is money well expended. Hence most of the leading flockmasters dip twice in the year once in the spring and again in the fall. , The object of. dipping is to destroy the. parasites in the fleece, such as scab mites and sheep ticks and lice, and to prevent subsequent .at tacks from the same. In England, where sheep raising has attained its highest state of perfection, dipping is required by law at least twice a year While dipping may not be done at any season, it should, if possible, be avoided in cold weather for obviou3 reasons. The most favorable time for the spring dipping is a few days after shearing time. By this time the ticks will have largely, transferred from the ewes to the' lambs. At this time comparatively little material is needed. If the flock is badly infested it is important to repeat the operation in ten days in order to destroy the in sects that have hatched during the interval. The flock should again be treated in the fall, so as to go into winter free from parasites. ' A Typical Robber Cow. profits from good cows Becured in this way will pay for a good bull in short time. This Is the cheapest way of building up a herd and there can be no failing if common sense and good judgment are used as to the se lection of the bull. The Babcock tester will keep us straight on the value of the cows, because they can not dodge the test. It is infallible and the 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 tlon, May Be Traced to Faulty or Irregular Feeding. Two kinds of scours affect young calves, common scours, which are caused bv indigestion, and white scours, or calf cholera. Calf cholera is contagious, but if a calf gets the disease, it will occur few days after birth. If the pens are kept clean there is not much danger from this disease, usually. Stalls used for calvine purposes should be care fully disinfected after a calf is born. Common scours, which are caused by indigestion, are much more com mon. The indigestion may be traced to faulty methods of feeding, the most common of which" are: Overfeeding, cold milk, sour milk, irregular feeding dirtv Dails and dirty stables. When a calf shows signs of the scours, the milk sunnly should be reduced one- half, and the amount gradually in creased as the calf shows signs of Improvement. This usually will cure them, but if it does not, feed about a tablespoonful of soluble dried blood and stir in well with the milk. Dried blood not only acts as a tonic, but it has some food value, and Is often fed WOMAN'S STORY MADE PUBLIC Mr$. Moncrief Didn't Consider It Secret Thought Friends Should Know. Read Her Statement. Belton. Tex. Mrs. Ethel Moncrief, of this place, says: "I suffered with a complaint peculiar to women, and. al though I called in the doctors, they failed to do me any good. Then, I began to take Cardui, the woman's tonic. -' From the first dose, I could feel re sults, and. in a short time, I was re lieved of all my dreadful suffering. My friends were surprised to see the results I obtained from the use of Cardui. I just couldn't help telling them. It built up my system wonder fully. I do not want to be without Cardui in my house, as long as I can obtain it. It is a true relief for womanly troubles. I can't praise it too highly." In the past helf century, thousands of ladies have written, like Mrs. Mon crief, to tell of the benefit received from the use of Cardui. Such testimony,, f rom earnest wom en, surely indicates the merit of this woman's remedy. Cardui contains pure, harmless, vegetable ingredients, which act in a gentle way on all the weakened wom anly organs. It cannot do you harm, and is al most sure to be the very medicine you need. It's good for young or old. .. Please give Cardui a trial. N. B. Writ t!: Chattanooga Medicine Co.. Ladies' Advisory Dept., Chattanooga. Tenn.. for Strcial Inxirurticns on your case and 64-page book.

In the mind of the average gard ener, be he urban, suburban or rural, the culture of vegetables is associated with drudgery which is in no wise diverting, and yet, if one only deviates from the beaten paths and is not afraid to grow things that are decid edly uncommon, as much fun can be had In the kitchen garden as irf Flora's domain, and no little profit. One of the uncommon vegetables I have grown Is the martynia. The martynia, known to our fore fathers as the martinoes, has unde servedly become unpopular. Perhaps the disagreeable odor of its gloxinia like flowers, and the peculiar shape of the hairy seed-pods that succeed them had something to do with Its disfavor. The latter are responsible for two other designations of this vegetable curiosity, for in England, where it is grown extensively, it is known as the unicorn plant-and in Mexico, where it grows wild, it is called the devil's finger-nails. The pdds are produced In great abundance and should be gathered when less than half grown, as they are worthless after the hardening of their substance. They are pickled in vinegar like cucumbers and are very useful in putting up mixed pickles. The plants require considerable warmth, therefore, the seed should Martynia. 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 they re quire considerable space. It is a good plan to sow the seed in a hotbed even when the calves do not have the ; an(j transfer the young plants to the scours. . If the calves have the scours very bad, the formalin treatment is good. Add one-half ounce of formalin . to 15 ounces of distilled water to make the solution. Then add one teaspoon ful of this mixture to each pint of milk that is fed. This method is very effective. garden in the latter part of April or as soon as the weather Is settled. Start in Poultry. The cheapest way of getting started in the business of breeding fine poul try is to buy egg3 and hatch them. Ten or a dozen chicks are often pro duced from a sitting of eggs, which may be purchased for less than the cost of a single first-class fowl, and any one of the chicks is worth more than the total outlay.. Shipping Mares and Foati. The best way to ship mares with young foals at foot is to build a par tition across one end of a car, bed the floor well with good hay and turn : them in loose, says the Horse Breeder. We have shipped many in that way and have never had one injured. The mare that Is a good mother will never step on her foal when It Is lying in the car. With plenty of good hay for bed ding mares wiii not suffer for food j even though the train is delayed a few hours. Water In a clean bucket should be offered them frequently. Yearlings and two-year-olds may be safely shipped in this manner. Segregate Strange Fowls. When you add a new specimen to your flock, place the strange fowl by Itself for a few days and watch for signs of lice or disease. A healthy flock may be ruined by the introduc tion of a bird which carries the germs cf trouble. Oats for Poultry. The value of oats as a ration for I poultry is largely offset by the draw back due to the harsh and rougn cov ering.
