A special feature o f the work will be an extensive exhibit o f modem rood machinery, with demonstration o f its use, by iucu from different places In the state whom the hlghw-ay commis sion meu have found to be expert In tlie use o f the different road machines. Home short sections of road of different kinds will l.e built. Another special feuture o f the Bchool will Is* Instruction In the design und building of cement culverts. Detailed standard plans for culverts of different sizes will he furnished by the commis sion, with full Instructions for building then», and to illustrate the work some actuu) culverts will be built and tested during the school. The officers o f the Good Roads asso elation have decided to bold their an nual minting at the college ou Thurs day and Friday, June 13 and 111, so that those attending can have the bene fits o f tha good roads school. An Inter eating programme for this meeting is being arranged and will Include ad dresses by such well known good roads men as Senator Harper uud others. The state highway commission vory strongly urges all road officers o f the state. Including county supervisors, township trustees and township rood superintendents, to attend this school. When the excrement secreted by the kidneys, which Is normally pure white, appears yellow, though the droppings aro solid and the bird uppeara perfect ly healthy, look otrt for bowel trouble. When the crop Is hard and unyield ing there Is danger o f the bird becom ing crop bound. When the dtschnrgow are streaked v. lth blood It is time to give preventives for diarrhea. When the points are hot and swollten oud thi; fow l Is disinclined to stand, rheumatism has taken hold. When the nostrils are clogged with dirt and the eyes water, ward off a pos sible case o f roop by timely treatment If the ease Is bad apply the hatchet and bury the carcass. When the bird seems lame and has a small swelling on Its foot remove to a house with no perches and oblige It to roost on a bod o f straw. Rumble foot Is easily cured In the early stages If the cause Is at once removed. When a hen seems to droop down be hind and goes repentedly to tin* nest without laying she is usually suffering from a disorder o f the oviduct and might as well be killed uud eaten. When a bird Is "going light," has good appetite, but passes food from the bowels undigested, tt Is the early stage o f consumption, and treatment Is use less. When the hen seems giddy and turns round and round Bhe Is probably suf fering from apoplexy. When the bird has leg weakness, with no disorder^ o f the liver, feed lighter and give plenty o f bone forming ma terial. When npw fow ls are bought Quaran tine them until sure they have no dis ease. When a fow l has difficulty in breath ing look out for pneumonia. When a fow l Is dangerously sick wrth an organic disease tt 1» Worse than useless as a breeder. It Is usually safer to kill a bad ease o f illness than to try to cure It.—Farmer’s Gazette, Canada. r ig h t U r u h m a I 'r i s e W in n e r . * V A LU E O F SEPARATO RS.

The old fashioned way o f aettinj: milk In the ordinary sl\ »¡uni t «hallow pun« had nothin# to cotnineiid it ex cept the cheapness o f ’ the outfit, say« American Cultivator. 'Ihe pa» tuke up a great deal of room in tic* dairy and make u great deal of work in washing» ulthough the new pai,-* ^resa* ed out oi one piece of tinware are not so hard to wash as the old ones that were made out or four or five pl<vt*s and had a »earn around the bottom and two or three up the t '.iV-v Leaving out o f consideration tlfe large amount of room forty or fifty pans take up in a dairy, which Is a big Item on many farms, we find other strong objections in that puna last but a few years, they cause- lota of mess from spilling und leaking, and the milk sours and thickens before the cream 1ms time to rise This last point is the greatest objection, and a very serious one, to the use of shallow pans lu dairies of half a dozen cow s or more. Just how much butter fat or cream is lost In the milk the average farmer does uot know. lit* thinks that It is only a little and that It does not amount to much liut • really it amounts to a good deal and may be the whole of the profit.. The following experience shows the loss through setting milk in open pans: A herd of fourteen cov » was in milk atul giving about iioO pounds o f milk a day. The pans were set in a cool room and allowed to stand for thirty «lx to forty-eight hours Tin* skim milk was tested, and it showed that nearly ail the cream rose In the first twelve hours, no difference being shown between’ that set twelve hours and thut . jet thirty-six hours. Hut the amount of butter fat which was lost was something appalling, amount ing as It did to eight tenths o f 1 per cent, or about* one-sixth of the whole amount o f the butter in the milk. This loss Is not surprising to one who has opportunity to make such and it is going on every day on hundreds of farms In this country. In this case It amounted to tw o pounds o f butter per day, and nearly all of this could have been saved by the use of a separator. F. I..
