The an Cost way to suit the cows J
Is to keep a supply before then) X
at nil times. !
It's a mistaken policy to let the X
dry cow rustle for herself. She t
should have good care if she is
expected to do well at the next
freshening.
Success does not lie in the
number of cows the dairyman
keeps, but in the kind he keeps
and the way he keeps thetu.
Be sure that the calves are
started right. Feed regularly, not
too much at a time, and young
calves at least four times a day.
Individual excellence is the
only safe guide to be depended
i upon in selecting cows to build
up a good herd.
STALLION TO PATRONIZE.
Avoid Using Animals With Glaring
Faults of Conformation.
Soundness and pure breeding come
first In the selection of the stallion to
patronize, writes Annandale in the Na
tional Stockman. Too much hurry Is to
be avoided. Nature abhors the union
of widely differing types. It Is a mis
take to mat very small mares with very
large stallions. Better make the ad
vance in two generations than try to
span the gap at one Jump. The nire
closely the united types resemble each
other the greater will be the likelihood
of the progeny striking the happy me
dium desired. The greater the dlsslm
iarity between the united types the
more certain the production of low
class offspring, presenting the charac
ters of both parents in 111 assorted
proportions.
Breeding is by no means a matter
governed by rule of thumb. In a gen
eral way the offspring will partake of
the characteristics of both sire and
dam, but nature has a mean trick of
perpetuating the bad qualities at the
expense of the good. This must always
be taken closely Into consideration.
Avoid using a stallion with any glar
ing fault of conformation or disposi
tion. A sour head, a lop ear, small
eye. ewe neck, long weak back, drap
ing rump, short rib or a narrow, boiy,
mulelike foot is almost certain to be
transmitted if possessed by one parent,
'no matter how good the other may be
in that particular point There may be
a modification for the better, but the
rule is that any glaring fault of con
formation Is practically certain to be
transmitted, and for that reason mares
faulty in any regard which means de
preciation of value should not be used
as breeders. Stallions cannot do it all.
Mares have just as much to do with
molding the progeny. Very Inferior
specimens should not be mated It is
substantially impossible to eradicate
their defects. Avoid using either stal
lion or mare particularly weak in any
part It is better to use a stallion mod
erately good at all points than one
transcendently superior In some and
glaringly faulty in others.
Eschew light boned sires, no matter
'what the breed. Be careful to avoid
'thin, shelly feet stubby pasterns,
sickle hocks and calf knees, together
with long weak backs and short ribs.
These defects of conformation are
worse than some actual unsoundnesses
and are renamed to emphasize the ne
cessity of avoiding them. Good tem
per, docility and high courage are al
ways assets worth cash.
A Heifer's First Calf.
A good deal of loose, unfounded doc
trine is floating about In dairy circles.
One Is that a heifer's first calf, male
or female, is apt not to prove as effi
cient In dairy work as those of her
maturer years, says Hoard's Dairy
man. We cannot find that there has
heea any attempt to secure substantial
lata on this question. We know in
our own experience of twenty-five
years of special breeding that some of
onr best animals were the first calves
of two-year-old heifers. Among them
was the bull Espanore II., who stands
in the Advanced Registry with sevtn
daughters to his credit
But the most notable example in this
direction is the world famous Jersey
cow Jacoba Irene. The Jersey Bulle
tin in commenting upon this fact says:
"Jacoba Irene, the world's champion
long distance dairy cow. was the first
calf of her dam, born before her moth
er was two years old."
Raise the Calves.
liaise the calves on the farm, have
enough to ship in car lots, feed well
and make money. In this way the risk
Is reduced, the investment lessened,
the cost of production cheapened,
rough materials are consumed and the
land benefited. It don't cost much to
raise well bred calves to baby beef age.
and it does keep the working equip
ment of the farm in profitable use the
year round. A carload of home grown
eteers turned off each year will go a
long way toward reducing the operat
ing expenses of the farm.
Worm Medicine For Horse.

On rising in the morning the eyes

Twenty passes are said to be decided

taxing of the eyes, which cannot com

neglect When dust settles In the eyes

Animal Clever With Their Feet.
Gouts are the most sure footed of our
native aulmnls. They can walk up
right where the average human being
would not crawl. Horses are the dain
tiest treaders, however, though they
cannot climb. No horse will step on a
man if It can possibly help it. It is a
standing rule iu cavalry regiments that
tf a trooper Is dismounted he must re
main perfectly still, when the whole
column passes over blm without injur
ing htm. Camels are careless, on the
other hand, and the man who cnm,out
unharmed from under the feet of a
camel corps was not born to be run
over by any kind of beast or vehicle.
Exchange.
A Funny Eagle.
A Russian grand duke was once the
guest of a Germau priuce. It was ear
ly In the last century. In Russia the
imperial double headed eagle Is to be
seen everywhere and on everything
throughout the empire stamped, paint
ed, embroidered or sculptured. At that
period the education of grand dukea
was somewhat limited. This grand
duke went out shooting In Germany
and. among other things, shot a large
bird. He asked an experienced hunts
man who accompanied him what the
bird was. "An eagle, your highness,"
was the answer. The grand duke turn
ed on him in an Irritated way. "How
can it be an eagle." he asked, "when It
has only one head?"
Cooking Accounts,
The word cook, used in the sense of
cook np accounts," la generally put In
quotation marks, but the phrase has
been almost long enough in use to
give it indisputable standing. Smollett
wrote of "cooking accounts" in 1751.
and proofs were "cooked" a century
earlier, but somehow "cook" remains
what the dictionaries sniff at as "col
loquial" in this sense, while "concoct"
which means to cook or boll together.
has the status of a fully accepted
word. The Romans used "concoquo"
and the simple "coqno" alike in the
metaphorical sense of pondering and
devising, but the obvious metaphor of
"cookiug" accounts never occurred to
them.
Growth of Rocks.
Rocks do not grow in the sense that
a plant grows. They may Increase by
accretion, and they may undergo chem
ical change. The old sea bed, being
lifted up. becomes sandstone and lime
stone. The volcanic ash and lava
strewn over the plains become tufa,
hard enough for building stone. The
pebbly shore of a river becomes con
glomerate. The simple mineral does
grow, however, when it takes a crystal
form. The sparkling prism of quartz
increases from an atom to a crystal
as large as a forearm by a process of
addition and assimilation, wonderfully
slow, but beautifully regular, exactly
as crystals of ice form on the window
pane. Ancient Locks.
Locks were used In the time of the
pbaraohs. At Karnak the visitor Is
shown the sculptured representation of
a lock which is almost exactly like one
kind of lock used in Egypt at the pres
ent day. Homer says that Penelope
used a brass key to open her wardrobe.
He adds that it was very crooked and
had an Ivory handle. A Greek writer
who lived In the last half of the twelfth
century explains that such keys were
undoubtedly very ancient although
still to be seen in Constantinople and
elsewhere. Roman locks, like the Egyp
tian, required a partial sliding of the
key. They were, however, more intri
cate. Jumper of the Sea.
Many of the inhabitants of the sea
are good Jumpers, and some have be
come famous. Among them should be
mentioned the tarpon or silver king, a
huge fish with scales that gleam like
silver. In the Pacific waters the tuna,
an ally of the horse mackerel, is noted
for its leaps. Sometimes a school
sweeps up the coast and the powerful
fish, often weighing 800 pounds, are
seen in the air in every direction. They
dart like an arrow, turn gracefully five
or six feet in the air and come down,
keeping the water for acres In a foam,
and. if not the greatest, they are cer
tainly the most graceful of the Jump
ers of the sea.
TWO GOOD RULES.
Here are a couple of guides to
happiness: For a fit of passion
take a walk In the open air. You
may then speak to the wind with
out hurting any person or proclaim
ing yourself a simpleton. For a fit
of idleness count the tickings of a
clock. Do this for one hour and
you will be glad to ,pull off your
coat and go to work like a man.
Shoe Superstitions,
Never place a pair of new shoes
higher than your head, snys nu old

wearing them, and never black one be
fore putting the other on for a similar
