The silo Is an established factor in American husbandry. While It Is more commonly used by dairymen than by other feeders, the time is not far dis taut when the silo will be depended largely upon to furnish succulent food to all classes of farm live stock. The comparative merits of feediug a corn crop in cured condition or converting it Into silage and then feeding it are as follows: The losses of nutrients In either case are about equal. The digest ibility Is about the same for each. Silage, however, Is more completely consumed, more readily euten and In greater quantity than when the same material Is cured. It can be placed In the silo when ready regardless of the weather and when so disposed of Is In the best possible condition for feeding and handling. The silo Is also much more econom ical In storage per unit of nutrients than any possible lnclosure for dry, bulky hays or fodders. The labor and expense of harvesting and storing a crop for the silo come all at one time, BEADS FOR WINTEB FEEDING. and further anxiety Is over. It is ready to feed at any season and will keep, if properly mude, for years. If the crop Is cured and the forage and grain fed separately, the labor of preparation Is eudless and the forage soon losws pal-atablllty. The ubove are some facts for doubt ers and procrastinators to think upon. It Is not meant to have all corn con verted into silage. Every milk pro ducer, however, with ten cows should have a silo. Those keeping fewer cows Bhould expand their business until a silo can be used advantageously. Materials should be ordered and plans perfected early in the year far a silo to receive the crop, as construction is always de layed, and if concrete or plastered silos are erected they need time to harden. The point is to be prepared to take care of an Immature crop whatever the line of farm lug. Dairymen, voluntarily deprive them selves of many millions of dollars each year through a pernicious, wasteful custom of running their cows In the stalk fields aU -winter Instead of con verting part of the crop at least Into sllaee and feeding It where the ani mals would be comfortable. An emi nent authority concludes that there Is 12 per cent greater, return through feeding a crop as silage to dairy cows than by feeding the same in a cured form. The silo Is Indispensable in most lines of .husbandry. Herbert A. Hopper, in Charge of Dairy Extension, Purdue Experiment Station. Developing Heifers' Udders. Heifer calves should be handled very often to keep them gentle, and fre quent manipulation of the udder dur ing the first pregnancy will do much to stimulate development. This fre quent handling of the udder Is of no little Importance not only In securing better development, but also to make the heifer so familiar with the opera: tlon that when her calf is dropped she will take the milking as a matter of course and will not require to be bro ken. The heifer should drop her first calf when sho Is about two years old, as this will make a more productive cow than when delayed until another year. When tht first calf Is not dropped until the third year one calf and one year of milking are lost, and the heifer ac quires a tendency to use her surplus feed In the laying on of fat Instead of In the secretion of milk, a tendency which will be retained through life and which would have been avoided by earlier breeding. W. E. Gilbert. Cow Demands Regularity. The dairy cow Is a good timekeeper and knows very well when milking time comes. If she Is neglected and allowed to go far beyond the regular time she begins to worry and loss fol lows. There are some cows that cer tain milkers can never get clean. They milk out all that flows readily and strip around once or twice, then call it finished. With some cows this an swers, but with others the milker must reach well up on the udder and work It with a sort of kneading process. A little manipulation of this sort will cause the whole quantity to flow Into the teats, whereas without It there will be from a gill to a pint of the richest milk left In the udder every time, which uieaus a prematurely dry cow. Measures That Should Be "Taken to Protect the Herd. After all, the old adage that an ounce of prevention Is worth pounds of cure holds good in protecting the health of the hog. Cholera receives credit for killing many animals whose death is due to other causes. Many of these troubles can be guarded against or may be successfully treated. In the way of preventive measures first and foremost stands the natural sunshine the best antiseptic and ger micide known. Here Is where, other things being equal, the large, fancy hog house Is less desirable than the small, Individual farrowing house In which the sun can penetrate every nook and corner, drying, warming and disinfecting thoroughly every inch of surface. It might be said to an almost equal extent that the more dipping the less disease, as the dipping process not only destroys the vermin, but stimu lates the action of the skin and, re flexly, the digestive organs. During last fall and winter Beveral outbreaks of true hog cholera were caused by the lack of a little foresight in not properly handling breeding and show stock. No hog or pig should be placed among strange animals without first being kept In quarantine for a few weeks and dipped stveral times. In buying breeding stock or show stock, returning home they should al ways be dipped upon arriving and at the end of the quarantine period be fore turning them lu with the rest of the herd. By quarantining, In this In stance, Is meant the keeping of the animals entirely by themselves and cared for by an attendant who never goes near the main herd until such time as it Is decided positively that they have not been Infected with disease. When symptoms of cholera appear in a herd It Is wise to dip the whole herd, disinfect their quarters thorough ly, give them a slight change In feed and add to this about five drops of tincture of prickly ash for each hun dred pounds of hog once or twice per day. The old remedy of wood ashes and salt is good In many Instances. A little powdered sulphate of copper, dried sulphate of iron or charcoal given daily when the animals are not perfectly healthy frequently does much good F. S. Schoenleber, D. V. S., Pro fessor of Veterinary Science, Kansas State Agricultural College. 1 f I 1 nn lU Oregon City's Busy Store I -NEW MILKING MACHINE. Simple Devioe Used Abroad to 8av Time In the Dairy. A very simple mechanical milker Is being used In Europe, and reports in dicate better results than have been secured from any other of the several milking machines. It Is so simple that a boy of ten years of age can easily operate It, says Fopular Mechanics. It consists of four pumps which work In succession, one after another, and at the same speed as a person milking by hand. Each pump is connected by a short rubber tube to a teat cup, of which there are four. The milk. has only a short distance to travel and discharges directly Into MECHANICAL MILKER. the pall to which the machine Is fas tened. The operator sits on a stool and turns a crank at the rate of forty five revolutions per minute. The suc tion of any one of the pumps can be Increased or decreased by turning a thumbscrew which controls the air passage. As Boon as one teat is milked the suction is cut off arid the cup re moved, while the other pumps contlnuo working. Where several machines are used in one place, power through flexible shaft ing, one-tenth horsepower to each ma chine, may be used. With power one operator can superintend several ma chines. The device has been patented in all countries. A Satisfactory Combination. I know of no farm work so profltabls as the breeding and feeding of swine in connection with the production of cream and raising of fruit, says a farmer in the Agriculturist. We turu our brood sows Into an orchard of about four acres In the spring and feed them half rations of skimmilk, mid dlings and bran. This keeps them rug ged and thrifty, and the pigs grow like wise. -The trees look fln, and we get a good crop every year.

I believe the ordinary ten gallon milk can used for the transportation of com mercial milk has been the cause of more trouble than any other one thing. Frequently cans which are supposed to be clean contain half a pint of filthy rinsing water. I believe there should be an 'ordinance In every village and city compelling the milk vender to wash and sterilize his cans thoroughly before sending them to the producer. In the washing of milk utensils you should not use soap powders or soaps of any kind which contain organic fat. By so doing you may convey to your milk undesirable flavors and cause to remain In your utensils deposits which will contaminate or deteriorate the milk. John D. Nichols, Ohio. Removing Tusks From Boar. A writer in the Kansas Farmer says, "The most convenient way that we have found to remove the tusks from a boar Is to place a good, strong inch rope in his mouth, and by this means a couple of men can usually hold him in a corner of the pen while the third with a pair of sharp pinchers removes the tusks." shine work, etc. Strong faculty, modern equipment ; free tuition; opens Sept. 25.
