The '. test ileiiiniismitPil Tl.n t corn siliiii- gave by far the best returns not only In economic pro- , dm tit.n of beef, but also iu the quality of beef anil the shape In which It readied the market. TUiit silage fed steers produced l-f from 15 to 'JO per cent cheaper than the other feeds. That silage fed Ix-ef lost less In ship ping to market. This la n test whb h ; some shlniers have disputed In the past, declaring sflatre fol beef lost se verelv in the stifhldng process. That the silage fed group produced gains that would warrant a value on the silage of $).m per ton this earn ing on n very poor market, as the steers wild for only $.".50 per hundred. Had they been sold on a good market the gain inK-ht have been increased JO per cent.

WHEN TO CUT YOUR HAY. Some Pointcre For Growere of Tim othy and Clover to Bear In Mind. Timothy may he cut In the forenoon as soon us the dew is off ami raked into windrows Immediately after din ner If the weather is dry and clear. Any hay preserves best Us color, aro ma and piilatahlllty ley being shocked or placed iu the stack In the greenest possible condition without being so green that heating or molding will oc cur. If the timothy Is very heavy and Is exposed to dew or a light shower be fore It Is niked it will frequently lie necessary to use the tedder in order to shape It up thoroughly and get rid of moisture. Kxcept in the case of small fields un der conditions which would not Justify an outlay for machinery, there Is very little of the hay crop which goes into the old time shock. This la undoubted ly a very sntisfactory way of curing hny in Its best condition, especially if protected l'iy fl shock cover, but where large amounts are to lie handled It is better economy to place It In a mow or stack It directly from ttie windrow. Clover is best cut when it is In full bloom, hut it Is better to cut It earlier thnn t Ills rather than Inter. If cutting Is delayed until some of the clover blossoms mature and turn dark there Is likely to be a heavy loss of foliage and a consequent deterioration in feed ing value. Orange Judd Farmer. The Building Season Is Hsra Again WI ARE HEADQUARTERS F08 BUILDING MATIWAL AND ARE ANXIOUS TO SUPPLY YOUR WANTS r$u. Deaver Poard -oft DEAVLR POARD Economy Bean Harvester. To make n lieaii harvester thnt will do frood work and yet Involve scarcely any expense tnke a common hoe to the blacksmith. Have shank cut In two and take a piece of steel of the same di ameter and have a piece about ten Inches long welded In. This is to keep the handle from striking the beans and shelling them. Have the hoe sharp and cut Just at top of ground, putting two rows Into one when chop ped otr. You can chop them nearly as fast as you enn walk, and when the beans are .dry tnke a common pitchfork nnd loud on to a wagon. In this way much hard labor Is saved with but Hltle expense. -Farm and Fireside. Teat Cow and Farmere Too. One of the best effects of the cow testing associations Is on the farmer himself. One of the men who look after the cow testing associations Raid to us once that he had repeatedly no ticed that thnt farmer was a "gone case" who could not be aroused to bet ter thinking nnd management by the work uf the test. Too mnuy farmers expect the cows to change for the bet ter without doing anything; in thnt di rection themselves. - Hoard's Dairy man. Give the Lambkins a Chance. Lambs frequently experience a diffi culty in finding the teats owing to the long wool surrounding the udder, nnd It Is very Important that the shepherd examine every ewe and use the shears to cut away nny surplus wool. This will enable the lambs to feed with greater ease, .-mtl they are less apt to become victims of wool balls In the Btomaeh. which frequently cause death. American. AKi'iculturlat.
