MAY RILMA, GREAT
BUTTER PRODUCER
May Rllma, 22701. quoeo of the
dairy world, was dropped Dec. 15,
1006, and la therefore In her eighth
year. She was aired by Mara of Wood
crest, and her dam ni lUlnia of Pax
tang. May Mima la American bred. When
first entered for adviim-cd registry
under the rules of the American
Guernsey Cattle club she produced In
twelve months 1U.14.V0 pounds of milk,
the test showing .vsao pounds of but
ter fat This Iwl to her re-entry for
the tost Just completed.
rroHt lu the careful treatment of
May IMItiia Is shown by the following
tteurvs compiled by Mr. Cuasntt:
May Itllma furnished l!.ti.'Ut.ft pounds
of milk during 3(13 days of the test

The Guernsey cow. May Rllma.
owned by Captain Edward H. Cas
sntt. proprietor ot the fnmoua Cliea
terbrook farm at llerwyn. fa., hna
Kiven in 3.4 days 1SU39.5 pounds ot
milk, which contained 1,13 W pounds
ot butter (at. This cow was bred
and raised at the (arm. and her
year's work has been carefully su
pervised under the regulations (or
the advanced register of Guernsey
cattle conducted by the American
Guernsey Cattle club. While offi
cially eupervlsed by the representa
tives ot the Pennsylvania experi
ment station, her work haa also
been checked by six similar Institu
tions in other statea and by a rep
resentative ot the dairy division of
the United States department of
agriculture. This record aurpassee
that of any cow of all the dairy
breeds In the world.
This was sold at 6 cents a pound, so
the cow brought In $1,178.37.
The dally feed of the cow was eight
een pounds of mixed grain ration, three
pounds of beet pulp, three pounds of
molasses, thirty pounds of ensilage and
ten pounds of hay.
This sixty-four pounds of feed per
day cost $.0993. a total of $2Tm.S1 fur
305 days. During ninety-seven days
of the test May Rllma was fed some
carrots, the cost being altogether
$15.52. So the cost of feeding the cow
was $270.83.
CARE OF RUNTY PIGS.
Animals May Do Fairly Well if Care
fully Looked After.
The hog man. no matter how careful
be may be. always finds a few runty
pigs on his hands when the time conn's
for weaning the litters in the early
summer, says the Kansas Farmer. The
number will depend to some extent
upon the condition of the breeding
herd, but perhaps more largely upon
the care the sows and pigs have re-
Iv durinK the suckling period.
?Verr g0H1 boK D,aD dlsllke t0
.uUlJ ifc """""s '
among me otner pigs, r.iui even tuougn
they are few in number tin-y always
seem more prominent Uiau the good
pigs of the litters.
The pig which Is runty at weaning
time will likely remain runty through
the season unless he Is given some ex
tra care and attention. These pigs
should by all means be culled out
from the rest of the bunch and placed
In a pasture or lot by themselves.
They can then be given a little better
feed and care and may possibly de
velop Into fairly decent pigs. The rest
of the bunch will look better at any
rate, and this Is no small matter to
the breeder of pure bred hogs who
oftentimes wishes to show visitors bis
stock. Giving the runts a little better
chance will push them along so that
they oftentimes can be disposed of on
the market early and thus be out of
the way.
Hofl Pasture Question.
Experiments at the Iowa station In
dicate that rye furnlxbes very good
bog pasture, but that the vetch Is not
worth much. For some reason the
boes do nt cem to take to It Oats
unu uanaua held pens rurnlsb very
good hog pasture, but everything con
sidered, rape alone Is by far the best
of nil the annual bog pasture plants.
Iowa experiments Indicate conclusive
ly that It Is not worth while to use
cowpeas. sorghum or soy beans as hog
pasture when such a good plant as
rape Is available. Rape seeded In
the spring and properly pastured will
furnish good -forage for hogs during
June. July. August. September, Octo
ber and part of November.
Drying Off the 8ow.
Good Judgment will have to be nsed
In handling the sows after the pigs
get to be seven or eight, weeks old, and
it Is a sensible thing to cut down after
that time on the milk making part of
the ration. In other words, feed corn
a little heavier and cut down the con
centrates. This will tend to automat
ically wean the pics and Incidentally
It will keep the sows In belter condi
tion thgn If they are forced along with
a heavy milk making ration.
Guard Against Blemishes.
A big sear In a prominent place on
the body of a horse will lake a good
many dollars off his market price. Fur
that reason do your best to guard
against all such things.

The other day the writer saw a con

that the early education of these Kid

The advantage of cultivating soli as
soon as It dries suOlclently following
a rain Is great. Not only does it pre
rent u baking of the soli when the sun
comes out, but It serves to make u
mellow soil mulch which Is a great aid
In the conservation of moisture.
If growing corn is dragged In the
afternoons of warm days, when the
stalks are pliable, little damage will
be done by breaking the plants down.
Such dragging puts the soil In the best
possible tillh and Is a most effective
wholesale method of destroying weeds.
A housewife who baa tried It re
ports that If cloves are put in the cup
boards and on the shelves they will
keep tho ants away. She discovered
this fact by accident as a result of
spilling some whole cloves, but now
uses ground cloves for the same pur
pose. Banana culture, while developed a
great deal in recent years, traces back
to very ancient times. Southern Asia
is claimed by some as the Brut home of
the banana, but others claim that it
was grown by tho Incus of Peru a
long time before the conquest by the
Spaniards.
