under the circumstances, with the

The old farmer who yields to the
importunities of his son or daughter
to quit work and move to town makes
a great mistake. He finds himself en­
tirely out of his natural element and
his enforced idleness irksome in the
extreme. He will become crabbed
reactionary, stingy, opposed to ali
improvements and soon begin to hate
everything and everybody—even him­
self. His good wife will have her own
peculiar trials and miseries, too. She
will be dreadfully discontented with
her new surroundings and circum­
stances and will long to return to the
dear old homestead—will think of it
constantly by day and dream of it by
night. \\ tiile it may be a good thing
for the son or daughter (who induced
him to move to town) to get married
and occupy the old homestead, to do
so can only result in unhappiness for
the old father andmo ther whose lives
thereby will be shortened many years
No, don’t "retire,” not even for your
children’s sake. Let them rustle for a
start in life as you had to do, and, of
course, help them all you can; but to
give up your old home that they may
have an easy start in life is asking
too much.
The cow will produce seven times
as much human food per unit of feed
consumed as will the steer. In fact,
the corn stalks leaves and cobs pro­
duced on one acre of good corn, if
fed to a steer, will provide material
for about 50 per cent edible dry mat­
ter in the form of flesh, while, if fed
to a dairy cow, about 330 per cent
edible dry matter will be p.oduced.
Ordinary economy, then, would de­
mand that our hill pasture and low­
land meadow, as well as coarse fod­
ders of our cultivated fields should
as much as possible, be employed in
the production of milk. We don't
have to go into the dairy business to
get the most profit out of our milk,
because we can sell all we can pro­
duce to the butter and cheese factor­
ies if we will handle it right and bv
taking the right care of our cans.
Many farmers merely wash them out
with dirty water, then put on the
covers without thoroughly rincing,
and do not let the air in. The only
way to remedy this is to wash the
cans thoroughly and allow them to
drain and stand in the sun as much as
posible. It requires
considerable
money ahd labor to carry on the
dairy business successfully, whereas,
the production of milk on the farm
for sale to the factories requires but
comparatively little capitala nd labor,
comparatively little capital and labor,
needs to be done may be done with a
rasp. Never cut it, for to do so would
do far more harm than good. The
hoof wall should be rasped off on the
bottom surface until the relation of
the heel, side and toe is approximate­
ly one, two and three in length, and
the work should be done in such a
manner as to cause the foot to rest
squarely on the ground. Practice and
observation will soon enable a man
who has fair judgment to determine
just what trimming the feet of each
coltne eds and how often attention to
them will be required. As a general
rule, the feet should be examined
every six or eight weeks.
------o------
I am talking more about livestock
than anything else because I regard
that industry, coupled with farming,
as far more profitable than merely
raising crops for sale at the mercy of
produce combines in the various mar­
kets by whom the price that the pro­
ducer shall receive and the ultimate
consumer shall pay is fixed, regard­
less of supply and demand. In my ex­
perience I have found that the pro­
duction of milk, to be sold to butter
and cheese factories, is, when proper­
ly managed, quite profitable. Regular­
ity in feeding and milking is an im­
portant point in Jceeping up the flow
of milk. One cannot milk in the morn­
ing any time between 5:30 and 9:30
and in the evening between 4:30 and
7 and expect the cow to do her best.
In my experience there is a difference
of at least to per cent between regu­
larity and irregularity. Having a reg­
ular hour in the morning to milk it
will not do to lye in bed until much
later on Sunday morning. If more
sleep is needed, milk the cows at the
usual time and creep back into bed.
There are many chors about the farm
that two or three hours earlier or
later in doing them makes no par­
ticular difference, but milking and
feeding the milch cows is not one of
them.
There’s money in raising Angora
goats, which is a very different ani­
mal from his distant relative of the
caneating type, now and then seen
about a livery stable in town, or used
by an urchin to draw his cart. The
fleece of the Angora is long, silk)
and wavy, and it is not wool, but mo­
hair. The fleece from the pure bred
animal is used for making very high
class fabrics, and the best mohair
commands a high price. The grades
yield a fleece that is used for 1st»
robes, blankets, rugs, etc., and while
it brings a good deal less money than
imported mohair it generally sells for
considerably more than wool. TM
pelts make beautiful robes, rugs, fuj*
and trimmings, and a good deal of the
flesh of the grades is eaten for. mut­
ton. It is very good when properly
fattened, but, owing to prejudice,
very few people eat goat meat know­
ingly.
