At ihe Michigan station nter consumption ly ten dairy cows was measured from the .after part o March to the latter part of July in lii'), while the cows were producing an average of 4 pounds of milk daily. The consumption during that period was 16.9 gallons per cow or about 140 pounds per day. Tims they cons-imeabout 3.2 pounds of water for every pound of milk produced. The large daily requirement of wa ter calls attention to the Importance of providing an abt ndance at all times. On most farms the water supply Is not as adequate during winter as it Is during summer, even though the cows may not need quite so much. Where drinking cups can be installed in the dairy barn they will pay good dividends. y rinn't wpnr a crass skirt lust be cause your father is a farmer; but don't send to Europe for an either.

A warm bran mash is also beneficial In fact, bran during this period. should form most of the grain fed for two or three days after calving. The cow may be brought on feed gradually, depending on the condition of the udder. If the udder Is badly caked or congested, grain should be fed sparingly. . If the udder Is not badly congested, then the cow may be brought onto feed gradually, having her on a full grain ration at about three weeks after freshening.

The best plan for planting the garden is to have the crops in long rows, not in beds. Lay out the rows the longest way of the garden, preferably north and south, and have the garden long enough so that a horse may be used both iu plowing the soil and In cultivating the crops. Plant the rows far enough apart to ailow the us of a cultivator drawn by horse power. Much more profit may be derived from a garden cultivated with a hors. Too much hand weeding and hoeing Is not only tedious and Irksome, but too often neglected besides beint more expensive than horse labor. Some garden plants are very tender and must not be planted In the spring garden until ail danger of frost Is over. Others are quite hardy and may be planted as early as the ground can be prepared. The following list of vegetables are hardy and will resist a frost after sprouting: Potatoes, parsley, onions, lettuce, kale, horse-radisendive, peas, salsify, rhubarb, radish, parsnip, spinach, turnip, carrot, cress, celery, cauliflower, cabbage, beets and asparagus. Vegetables that are Injured even by a slight frost and that should not be planted until all dauger Is past are; Tomnto, pumpkin, cucumber, pepper, sweet corn, beans, eggplant, muskmelon, okra, squash, sweet potato and watermelon. Most of the latter list should be started growing earlier than the last frost. The seeds may be planted in hotbeds or in window boxes. Applying Fertilizer u With Drill in Kansas A somewhat recent development In wheat seeding Is the application of 'ertilizer by means of an attachment on the drill. Prof, F. Duley of Kansas reports that four year tests have shown an Increase of 8.3 bushels per acre for broadcast fertilizers, while application In the row at seeding gave 14.7 bushels increase. Growth In the fall showed marked differences In favor of row applications and differences in early spring growth were even more striking. Applying the fertilizer with the seed by means of an attachment to the drill, gave slightly higher yields than when applied by hand either above or below the seed. Professor Duley has pointed oat that fertilizer must be applied properly for greatest results, even in soil low In plant nutrients. Quoting him: "We are coming more and more to the Idea of fertilizing the crop rather than fertilizing the soil." Pear Blight Appears in Form of Epidemic - Pear blight appears periodically in the proportions of an epidemic. The intervals may be 7, 10 or 15 years, the last serious outbreak occurring. In 1014. Pear blight is reduced as the vigor of the tree Is reduced. For that reason it is necessary to avoid extensive pruning which stimulates young growth. Use of nitrogenous fertilizers instead of stable manures should be avoided while blight is active or threatening. It is also wise to reduce the cultivation of orchards and seed them instead to grass, clover or some cover crop which competes for the fertility of the soil. The disease Is commonly called bios-sorblight, twig blight, fruit blight, Inbody blight and collar blight.

A study conducted In Montana by the department showed that the most effective, and likewise the most economical, way to raise healthy horses Involves a scries of sanitation measures beginning before the colt is foaled and continuing until it Is large enough and vigorous enough to withstand the ravages of stomach worms, Intestinal round w orms, pin worms, blood worms, and bots. The first step In the program recommended by the department Is the use of drugs to remove parasites from the mare before, or soon after, breeding. The mare Is then kept on clean fields until she foals, so there will be little likelihood of reinfestation. The young foal, thus given a start lu life free from parasites, will remain reasonably free from them if kept on pastures free from Infected animals and away from the Insanitary conditions usually associated with and favorable to ' . parasites.

Feeding Cubes to Live Stock Is Wise Method Feeding cubes to live stock (a common practice In England) Is on the Increase In this country. Why? With the feed pressed Into cubes there Is less waste. The cubes can be fed on the ground or in the trough. The cubes do not blow away nor sift through cracks Id the feed bunk. Various concentrates are used In making the cubes linseed meal, cot- tonseed meal, bran, tankage, molasses, etc. Either a supplement to homegrown grains, or a complete ration, can be had. . Sheep nnd hog cubes are Inch each way; steer about one-hacubes, about an Inch each way. If you must feed on the ground, try cubes. 'The cubes will work In too.
