From Farmers Review: It is far easier for me to raise geese than to write about them. My experience with them Is that they will do better with ponds. My reasons for this statement is that if you notice a goose on a day it is thawing you will notice she will go anywhere that a little water is on the ground and act as if she was going crazy to get into a pond to swim. Then, again, take geese that are shut ln yards and only get water to drink, will they not stand about the water dish trying to wash until the water is all gone? I once saw a goose that was penned and could ndt have any more than enough water to drink, have what I call a fit. She would go through the motions she would if she was in a pond of water, and was unable to stop. After this the goose was allowed to go to the pond and was all right, but as soon as she was kept from it any length of time she would be as bad as ever. Then again these geese that have no ponds do not lay as fertile eggs as the geese that do have ponds. If I wished to keep geese and had no ponds for them I should take large tanks and sink them ln the ground where the geese could get to them and keep the tanks full of water at all times. Last winter when the ponds were frozen I would once a week put a tub of water where they could get at it and I think I enjoyed seeing them wash as much as they enjoyed it Mrs. L. D.

Twenty years ago Kansas had but 471,548 milch cows, and scarcely a creamery worthy the name, and their product was unsought, says F. D. Co3 bum. Ten years ago Kansas had milch cows; creameries of a bet ter class were being slowly established, but their output begged a market y Kansas has 802,738 mLV- cows, or more than at any previous time, and e creameries and many cheese factories, including the largest creamery in the world, hundreds of contributory receiving and skim stations, and their product is not only favorably known in the principal markets, but sought beyond the supply. Thu? .is marked the progress of this industry in Kansas ln a decade become one of the most prominent of successful dairy states. While this is true, and within that time the aggregate annual value of our dairy products has nearly doubled, and while our foremost dairymen, by constantly striving to raise the standard of production, now have excellent herds, it is unquestionably a fact that large numbers of our cow population are not paying for their keep. The cause for this is to be found either ln the man or the cow, or both. Brains in the man and blood and feed ln the cow are essential to success ln Kansas, as elsewhere. 567,-85- pc-o- Dr. The Antiprofanity league requests you kindly not to swear.

What the Te$t Showed. Prof. E. H. Farmfhgton, in an address at a farmers Institute in Manitoba, Bald: It was with tbe hope of helping farmers and of illustrating the condition of some dairy herds that we undertook, some four years ago, to begin testing the cows of the patrons supplying milk to the Wisconsin Dairy School. These patrons keep cows and deliver milk to the factory in the same way as is customary at the creameries and cheese factories throughout tbe state. They do not have large herds and it was observed during the past year that the cows owned by one hundred of them were probgbly similar to the one million In '&e state. Only eight out of the one hundred patrons kept more than twentgcows and thirty-five owned from fwo to five cows only. This shows that the majority of our patrons do not pretend to be dairymen in the seqsqof making the production of milk a serious business and I fear that there are many farmers In dairy districts who do not allow the cows to make much of an impression on their minds; other lines of forming crowd the cows out so that they recqlye,.ffly a little attention at milking time. The cows on one farm were tested for three years. The average receipts per cow In 1898, from the creamery, were $36.30; in 1900 $39.20, and in 1901, $38.92. The figures do not show much indication 'that jthe owner has profited by the tests. Two cows that did not produce milk enough to pay a profit on their feed wore kept in the herd for three years, and five other cows produced less than $30 worth of butter In a year. The annual production of the mature cows during the three years shows tha the r cows did not Improve froifii ydar to year, but continued to give less milk than required to pay for the feed consumed. The one good cow was equally persistent In doing well. The creamery value of her milk for three years was $200. This is $110 more than the tost of her feed when we take $30 per year as the value of a cows feed.. The butter produced by the other five cows tested for three years amounted to .of their only $114 more than, feed during njfe mlty of one cow, thereToYtjSJ?'1 the OWDer within four dollars as uch Proflt ln three years as the mill Te cows in the same hehd for tlf 8Une length of time.

It is six or eight feet square and has the roof extended each way. From the ground the distance is three feet to the eaves, and from the eaves it is three feet to the comb of the house. The house is sided up with ship lath, and for the roof I use tongue grooved flooring. I fill in with lead or paint so as to make the house perfectly The window is square and tight made in the shape of the gable of the house, and is hung on hinges. By having the house made perfectly tight I find it saves a great deal of work in changing beds.' The bed keeps much dryer ln the tight house. Then I have a house floor, but the floor is separate from the house. I make the floor from common timber so I can set the house on the floor, or in warm weath er take the floor out and let the hogs lie on the ground if I wish. By making a little house 1 can carry and set it over a sow that has young pigs ln any part of the pasture. I like it the best of any house I have ever used. A Case of Abduction. William Louth of Areola, Illinois, Is reputed to own an old Plymouth Rock hen that has many motherly traits and is an affectionate sort of creature. Recently after being bereft of a brood of chickens she formally adopted couple of kittens, and has since been keeping thorn under the protecting care of her wing. The kittens were already blessed with a maternal ancestor that provided for them and bestowed upon them the most Indulgent attention, but this fact made no difference to the hen, so she walloped tbe cat until she was gled to get away, and then, clucking to tbe kittens, she cozened them under her wings. Strange to say the kittens took kindly to her and will now follow her about any place, paying comparatively little attention to their own mother. iculties. Foster-Milbur- Co., Buffalo, n N. Y.
