BREEDING CRATE. Direction! Qlvtn by Government Publication (or Construction of Good One. Several requests have been made for description of a breedinc crate lor swine. The Illustration and description are taken from Farmers'

BREEDING CRATE. Bulletin No. 205. The best size Is 6 ft. Ions. 2 ft. 4 In. wide, and 2H fb high. It Is mtde of 2x4 Inch s< ling, closed In front, open behind. On each side nail a 2x4 strip reaching from the bottom at the rear end to a point about 14 or 16 inches from the top at front end. for the boar to rest bis feet on. The holes in the side cleats are for an iron rod to run through Jast behind the sow's hock joints. The cut shows bottom boards put in lengthwise. If put in crosswise the board will not slip so much; light slats nailed crosswise will answer the purpose.

FEEDING OF DAIRY COWS. Two Xlstakaa Which Are Commonly Mads and Which Cut Off the Profits. There are two common mistakes made in feeding costs; Best, not feeding liberally enough; second, feeding a ration not properly balanced, says C. H. Eckler. of Missouri, in the Prairie Farmer. It has been found by experiments thst about CO per cent of what a cow can eat is necessary to merely maintain her without producing any milk or gaining Is weight This being true, it is evident that it is not economy to feed only a little more than this 60 per cent needed to keep up the cow's body. Below are given balanced rations that will furnish the materials necessary to produce milk in about the right proportion. By the term “rations’' is meant the feed for 24 hours. If a cow will not give a good Bow of milk In the early part of the milking period, when fed a liberal amount of one of tbeae rations, |t indicates that she is not adapted by nature to be a dairy animal and sbe should be disposed of. The amounts given are considered about right for a cow giring from 20 to 25 pounds of milk per day. For heavy milkers these rations are to be Increased, and reduced for lighter milkers. In making np these rations. it Is designed that the cow be given practically all of the roughness she will eat and then sufficient grain is added to furnish the necessary amount of digestible material. 1. Clover hay. 20 pounds; bran. 6 pounds; corn, 6 to 8 pounds. 2. Clover bay.'20 pounds; oats, 4 to 5 pounds; corn. 6 to 8 poundr 8. Clover bay, 20 pounds; corn and cob meal, t to 10 pounds; gluten or' cottonseed meal. 2 pounds 4. Alfalfa or cowpea hay. IS to 20 pounds; corn, 8 to 12 pounds. 5. Alfalfa or cowpea bay. 10 pounds; corn stover, 10 pounds; corn. 8 U> 10 pounds; and bran, 2 pounds '

THE STOCK. Tbs estlmats of ths value of dairy products for l»u6 leacfcts $665,000,000. When an animal gets In trouble from Indigestion give It oil at once. It Isn't a good plan to have tbs dirt from the bottom of the mows sift down upon the becks of the stock. The free use of straw for bedding Increases the manure pile and saves much fertility which would otherwise ba lost. ' Lamping off sheep and lambs Is aboat Uks wiling a man to go In and help himself. Market men do not say that to you; why should thay ezpect you to dsal in that way with them? Tkink bow the Bret cold days of winter make us hurry Into our overcoats; then do the fair thing with the stock. They can't help themselves, so We must keep them all snugly under CO VST. Fill up a cow with Ice-cold water, and allow her to stand In ths winter winds for an hour afterward, and you will be surprised to Bud bow qu.—ly she will respond to the treatment by taking . out of tbs milk pail.—Farm Journal.

Cement Floors in Stables. If stable floors are made of cement as they should be. they wiil not soak up urine and may be washed off frequently. Even with such Boon, I do not recommend that the stables be cleaned out before milking. If you finish cleaning oat a full hour or i before milking. It Is wall to do so, bat under average conditions it will gtvs a better and purer air to let the manure alone until the milk U out of the stable, says tbs Farm and Home. Fast as It la better to feed after milking. Setting the cows attend strictly to giving

PROFITS IN APICULTURE. Fhey Are Sure and Largs Where Proper Attention Za Given to

Oan we be mistaken when we « that there is no other field so prom lag to a voung man ou the farm as the Held of apiculture? We believe ibis be true, but we are well aware of the fact that there are many who fan. a greater per cent than In most other field. We can scarcely agree that It should be counted as a part of tha farm work, but It should be a sp« ty. u one V (Shea to make It a success declares I be Ohio Farmer. Success can only ue attained by a person who Is a lover of the bee and Is willing "learn the trade." and does not fear a few s'tngj. Try yourself and whether you can catch a bee and make It sting you on the back of your hand without Irellug a little bit nervoui you can you surely are all right as far

as fear Is concerned.

The experience of another year baa shown us that It Is useless to keep a great number of bees In "any hive that they may happen to be We have also learned again that the people ts a rule can scarcely believe that a ms.i who claims to get nearly 200 pounds of honey per colony year Is doing It honestly, but they seem to believe that feeding Is resorted to. that sugar Is bought by the barrel and fed to the bees to make l We approached a man the past spring who had 31 or 22 colonies bees, offering to furnish tha supers and combs for hts bees, and to divide the honey taken during the season equally

him

there be a rood honey flow each colony could yield 100 pounds or more, is free to tell us now that be thought, and came very near telling us. that we would have to haul sev-ral barrels of cheap sugar and feed them as we did our* at borne. He was finally persuaded to let us try IS colonies, keeping 16 to ettend to himself. Intending to see whether we could get more honey than he could. The result that from the 15 colonies we obtained over -2.500 pounds of honey, and from his 16 colonies he obtained very Utile. If any. over 20fr- pounds. There ire others with whom the result U nearly 1 seme. These men. et least hive faith to believe that during a good honey flow, bees can be made to pro- • a large amount of honey, witheny dishonesty he ng connected

with It.

A writer In "Gleanings In Bee Culture." advocates nine frames In e frame hive; another In the same paper advocates wider spacing, placing only seven frames In s ten-fame hive. We advocate cght frames as the best. With this rpaclng the filled combs will s heavy as can be easily handled.' The eight frames will fill your fourframe extractor “twist" (as the school has 111. and If you have three on a strong colony you can take abpat 100 pounds of honey at each ex-

tracting.

Honey should not -he extracted until well ripened In the hive, and yearly all capped over; though If you have good house for ripening honey, where you can 'cave It as warm as 100 degrees F. nearly every day for a week more after extracting, then we do not wait for :t all to be capped by the I but extract as soon as the combs are about one-half capped ov«r. e are more end more convinced that there is no other can as handy the common milk can. holding about J20 pounds of honey, for hauling honey from "out apiaries.' These cans are strongly made, may be bandied by and easily and quickly emptied into any 'ank you may have. Whiteclover honey should be kept separate from other flavors as It Is more salable, is higher in price, find no lover of honey will ever- tire of Its use. The first season has given us from 100 colonies of bees, about 16.000 pounds of honey. Bey. Mr. Editor, ere we mistaken when we eey that there Is no field more profitable than apicnltnre?

"Cometh of evil.’' or "of the evil one." It is the spirit of evil that suggests the device swearing. V. IS. "An eye for an eye." Ex. 20:24. 25; Lev. 2420; Dent. 19:21. It Is true that ths laws of Mi eluded such terms. V. 29. "Resist not evil" Do not retaliate. "Turn to him the other also." It Is better to be struck twice than to striks another once. V. 40.
