CONVENIENT FEED RACK.
It Assure: Economy and .Makes ‘the
Taking Care of Live Stock
Compurufively Easy.
As economy has become a very impor-
tant matter in the feeding and taking
care of stock, I thought-I would contrib-
ute a method of making aconvenient,
portable and cheap hay and fodder
rack, of which I send you a rude draw-
ing, from which you can make an illus-
tration. There is no patent on it. It is'
one that my father used when I was a
boy. It can be made out of olddiscard-
ed lumber. Two by four inch studding
can be used for corner posts; four by
four would be better. They should be
made about seven feet square, four or
HANDY FEED RACK.
five inches wide. Inch lumber can be
used. The corner post should be about
seven feet long; six will do. As you will
notice, there can fouggcattle feed at
each rack, if they have horns, and more:
without. The beauty of the rack is
when it gets full of trash or it becomes
muddy around the rack it can be raised
up and set at another place, as it has no
bottom. If it is made outof new lumber
it will last quite awhile by placing a
ocuple of old boards under the corners
to keep itoff of the. ground. I have long
thought of presenting the matter, but
had neglected it. By looking at the
sketch you/will become convinced of
its utility—D. W. Thuma, in Farmers’
Review.
FEEDING SKIM MILK.
Bow to Avoid Injuring the Calves
and lnflicting Upon Them In-
digestion and Secure.
A correspondent. writes asking some
advice as to how to feed young calves
on skim milk.
growing calves on skim milk are that
the milk be: sweet when fed, that it be
blood. warm, that it be not fed in too:
large quantities and that it be préper-
1y supplemented with suitable meals.
Cold and sour milk almost invariably
disturbs digestion and produces scours,
which may or may not result seriously,
.but it is at best certain to interrupt the
growth and thrift of the calf. A'great
Tmany calves are injured by over-feed-
ing skimmed milk. the effort being to
make up in quantity for the fact that
the milk is less nutritious than whole
milk. The better way to meet this ob-
jcction to the. skim milk is to add corn
meal and linseed meal, that is, ground-
linseed, to the milk. The proportion
of the linseed. to the cornmeal may be
about one part to ten. The amount of
skim milk to be givenwfllvaa'y with the
appetite and age of the calf, but from
12 to 20 pounds per day is aliberal quan-
«ity, and with a sufficient addition of
meals, good calves have been raised on
considerably less than this amount.
When the calf is born it is best'to give
whole milk at first, gradually substitut
ing skim milk, increasing the quantity
of the latter-until it-is all skim, in: about
ten days or two weeks. For a 90 days’
feed an. average of about. one pound of
cornmeal per day, with one—tenth as
much linseed meal to each 12 pounds of
milk, will be suflicient, the amount. of
the meal being light. in the early part.
of the feeding period and gradually in-
creased. Hay should be added as soon
as the calves can be induced to take it.
If it is difficult to get linseed meal
ground. boil the linseed to a jelly and
add it to the. milk in that way.—-Live
Stock Indicator.
HINTS FOR DAIRYMEN.
The dairy takes but very little from
the soil. 0 j
A good cow always commands a good
price.
The salt used in butter should be of
the best quality. ‘
Always clean. the udder and sides of
cows before milkinrr.
The quicker the butter comes the
better for the quality.
Milk with clean hands.
germs lurk in all sorts of dirt.
The dairy demands a good deal of
hard work, but considering all things,

', it is profitable.
That big lazy dog of yours mightbe
made to do the churning. if you would
get a small tread power.
The man who will sell, as pure bred,
animals that cannot be registered de-
serves the severest punishment.
Feed a few, not many, small potatoes
to the cows. Cut. them up and mimwith
meal. Too many will soften the butter.
Milk should he drank slowly. The
reason that milk does not agree with
some people is because they drink Mtoo

SUBMARINE BATTLE.
Brave American Diver’s Encounter
with an Octopus.
The Monster-Fightsnravely and Vln-
dictlvely, But Is Vnnquished,
After :1 Terrific Struggle. by
Its Human Opponent.
A deep-sea story that is uncanny
enough to make the cold chills creep
up one’s back comes from New Orleans.
It is a true story of adventure and dar-
ing such as is not often heard. 'A strug-
gle for lifebetWeen oneman and a huge
devilfish, with the odds. of course.
against the man. '
Capt. Conrad. the local diver of New
Orleans. has recently returned to that
city from a voyage to Central American
waters and while ,in the tropical seas
became a hero.
During the month of August the
fruit ship Oteri went ashore on the
coast of Rustan. Other divers had tried
to float her, but had failed. and finally
Capt. Conrad was engaged, and started
for the treacherous coast. The ship
had gone ashore head on. the stern
was in deep water and a coral reef
showed itself just aft of midship.
There was a great hole in her just
where she was fast aground. The keel
was. broken in three places and the
ship was altogether in very bad shape,
but the diver went to work on her with
the hope of accomplishing what otflers
had failed to do.
Slowly he went down. forgetting the
brilliant scene above the water now,
and wholly intent upon his work that
was waiting him. He approached the
ship and was getting down under the
bilge near where the work must be
done. when across his face glass there
swept a long. dark, slippery arm. Capt.
Conrad had been in tropical waters be-
fore. and knew the sign. He had met
a real octopus. sometimes called the
devilfish. The attack was so sudden
that the diver for a moment lost his
courage and gave the danger signal.
He was quickly drawn up to the boat.
It was a serious situation. The ship
was leaking badly, and must. not re-
main over "night without attention.
The work had to be done at once, and
there was no one else there to do it.
It only remained for him to go down
and fight the devilfish. To which would
belong the victory there was no possi-
ble way to tell. ‘
There was a big harpoon on the boat,
and the captain called for this, cutting
off the handle and making the weapon
about three feet long. Armed with this

Photographing E "vsted Objects.
Officers of the Italian engineer corps
are making e-fiect-ual use of the tel-
escopic objective in taking photographs
of objects high above the ground.
Among other things they have hermen-
‘abled to discover French batteries in
the Alps, which had not been known
to exist before that, and to make pho-
tographs of their external construction.
The application of the telescopic lenses
for such purposes was. demonstrated
for the first time whenthe scafiolding
was built on top of the dome of St.
Peter’s in Rome to repair the lightning
rod. Despite the great height, an ex-
cellent photograph: was made of the»
scaflolding. showing a. man in clear de-
tail at the top. .

BATTLE UNDER," WATER.
(Slowly the Ugly, Serpentine Creature
Moved Forward.)
he again went down into the sea. This
time his object. was to fight to death
the ugly monster that interfered with
his work, or die in the attempt.
Slowly the serpentine creature moved
forward and reached outwith one of its
long arms. Its rounded eyes were
stretched wide open. and it looked well
worthy its common name. .
The slimy arm was met by a vigorous
blow from the harpoon. The creature
was quick and drew the arm back.
Again it- swuug out and this time hit
the diver on the hip.. but lost the arm,
for one blow had severed it. Infuriated
by the pain, the animal began to fight
in earnest. .
One or two heavy blows proved of
little consequence. but Capt. Conrad is
a strongman. and swung the harpoon
with well-directed aim, finally driving
the weapon into a vital spot.
When injured the octopus discharges
a fluid which blackens the water near
it. This seems to be the provision na-
ture had made for the creature’s pro—
tection, in this. way making it impos-
sible for an enemy to continue the bat-
tle; but the fatal blow had, fortunate-
ly. been inflicted by the diver before the
blackness surrounded him. As soon as
the inky water cut off his vision Capt.
Conrad rushed for a place of safety and
managed to get beyond reach of the
d-eadlyfarms. He. gave the danger sig-
nal mice more, but this time returning
to the surface a victor.
After remaining some time on the
boat. until the inky fluid rose to the
surface and cleared away, the diver.
started down for the third time. He
did not know that his work Wascom-
plot-e. but when he got down he found
the devililsh dead. but close under the
hull of the vessel, where the work had
to be done. The harpoon was driven
ast into the body, but the weight was
too much for the captain's strong arm,
and a rope attached to the harpoon and
pulled by the men in the boat failed to
dislodge it.
