CONVENIENT FEED RACK.
It Assure: Economy and Makes the
Taking Care of Live Stock
Comparut‘h‘ely Easy.
As economy has become a very impor.
tant matter in the feeding and taldng
care of stock, I thought I would contrib-
ute a method of making a convenient,
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 old; discard-
ed lumber. Two by four inch studding
can be used for corner posts; four by
four would be better. They should'be

,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 four cattle 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. Ifgit is made out of new lumber
it will last quite awhile by placing a
couple of old boards under the corners
to keep it ofi‘ 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.
How to Avoid Injurlng the Calves
and ,Inflicting Upon Them In-
digestion and Scours.
A correspondent writes asking some
advice as to how to feed young calves
on skim milk. The essential points in.
growing calves on skim milk are that.
the milk be sweet when fed, that itbe
blood warm, that it be not fed in. too
large quantities and that it be proper-
ly 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 interruptthe
growth and thrift of the calf. A great
many calves are injured by over-feed-
ing skimmed milk. the efl'ort being to
make up in quantity for the fact that
the milk is less nutritious than whole
nzilk. The better way to meet this ob-
jection to the skim milk is to add corn-
meal‘aud linseed meal, that is, ground‘
linseed, to the milk. The proportion
of the linseed to the cornmeal maybe
about one part to ten. The amount of
skim milk to be givenwfll vary with the
appetite and. age of the calf, but from
12 to 20 pounds per day is a liberal quan-
tity, 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 substit‘ut -
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 on average of about. one pound of
cornmeal per day, with one—tenth as
much linseed meal to each 12 pounds of
milk, will be sufficient, the amount of
the meal being light in theearly 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.

“’hen Applied to Vegetable Garden-
_ ins It Is Almost Certain to
Prove Profitable.
A method of intensive culture which
has made some money for me is to plow
a plot of ground in-t-he fall, and manure
it heavily during the winter, then
barrow it in the spring, as soon as I
can work the ground, and with a one-
horse-corn planter plant the earliest
varieties of peas in rows 21/2 feeztapart.
I cultivate the peas with a horse and
cultivator until sometime in May,when
I plant early corn with the corn planter
between each alternate row of peas,
leaving alternate rows vacant from
which to pick the peas. The peas are
marketed the last of June, when the
vines are removed from the ground.
By this time the corn will have made
quite a. large growth, and the space
between the rows can be cultivated and
set to celery, cabbages, turnips or pet-
ted strawberry plants; or Hubbard
squash can be. planted in- the corn rows
the last of May, and the vines will oc-
cupy the ground between the. rows of
corn'after the peas have been removed.
Another profitable combination of“
crops is to grow early. bunch on‘i'onst
from sets, and follow them with a. sec-
ond crop of celery, cabbages or cauli-
flower.
What to plant. and how to plant de-
pend o~n o-ne’s soil and market. I
realize that if I describe methods of
culture» which are a success under cer—
tain conditions, others will try them
where the conditions are. not the same-
and fail to get good results.
The amateur in gardening should be:
satisfied to go slow, and not plant ex-
tensively until he has gained experi-
ence by planting small plats. In mar-
ket- gardening, as in other occupations,
it is the. trained workman who is a
“hustler” that “gets there.”—W. H.Jen- ‘
kins, in Vick’s. .
MEASURING A TREE.
A Simple But Reliable Rule for Es-
timating the Height of Stand-
ing Timber.
There are various methods employed .
in determining the height of astanding
tree; of these the geometrical method.
may be recommended for its simplicity
and sufficient accuracy. At some dis.
tance from the tree, where both top
and base are readily visible, place a
pole from four- to five feet long (SF)
perpendicularly in the ground; put in
the ground another and. longer pole
(DE) at some distance from the first
one, and so that the poles and treelare.
situated in the same vertical plane:
Sight from the top of the smaller pole

the points where your lines of vision in—
tersect the longer pole; measure the

distance between them; measure. also
the horizontal distance between the
small pole and the tree and that be-
tween the two poles. Multiply thefirs't
distance by the second and divide by
the third, the result being the height of
the tree. ,
For example, let the distance between
the. points where the lines of vision
intersect be six feet, the distance be-
tween the pole and tree 30 ‘feet,
the distance between the poles two
fct; then the height of the trees‘equ'als
6 multiplied by 30- divided by 2,
giving 90 feet—Cincinnati Commercial

ORCHARD AND GARDEN.
The plum and cherry require a little
pruning. .
Never allow insect—destroying birds
to be killed. -
Never remove large limbs from trees
when it can be avoided.
Unleached ashes make a good fer-
tilizer for strawberry plants.
Even continuous cropping of fruit
will gradually exhaust the fertility. *9
Where a. branch is removed the cut-
ling should be close, leaving no stub.
Apply plenty of well-rotted mature
in the garden during the winter.
Cut back slim (wood before the buds
start; better fruit will be secured.
. Save up the wood ashes to use as a
top dressing when planting in the
spring. ‘
Pears budded on the quince aresaid
to be dwarfed; they never make large
trees.
The apple, pear, quince and thorn
can be grafted on one another with
varying success.
In the garden plant or sow every-
thing in long rows, so that the culti-
vator can be used.
When: it can be done it will be a good
plan to top-dress the strawberry plan-ts
with wood‘ashes. g

Profit in White Clover Seed.
in ’is so difficult to cut and'cure’the
white clover after it has ripened its
seed 'that this ‘seed must always be
high priced. It is therefore worth
while for farmers who complain that
everything they grow is too cheap to
give them any profit to seed plentifully
with white clover on some land that is
reasonably free from weeds, and grow
this crop as a specialty. What is now
marketed is secured from the hand-
picked heads of clover. out of which the
seed is pounded and thewhafl? blown
away. White clover heads are pretty
sure to be filled with seed, as the honey
bees pass from flower to flower and
