The profit or loss in winter egg production of pullets depends upon the care and feeding they receive. For pullets to be good producers during the winter months they should be uniformly developed, have good frames, and be in good flesh before tbey begin to lay. It Is therefore necessary that they receive a good ration which will fill them out and also store up an abundance of fat, according to H. M. Wells of the Colorado Agricultural colr lege. ! Feed a good growing mash or a laying mash that is supplemented with a grain mixtureof two parts by weight of com and one part of wheat,, adA laying pullet during vises Wells. the winter months will draw upon her reserve supply of fat and the feed she eats will go toward the development of eggs; otherwise If she does not have this fat reserve she will utilize the feed she consumes to supply her body wants and keep her warm, and only the surplus will go toward : the production of eggs.

The fresh air that enters the house becomes warm and rises, and as warm air holds . more moisture than cold air can hold, it will cause dampness in the poultry house unless it has a chance to go out. Otherwise it condenses under the roof and drops to make the litter moist which and to cause a damp leads to colds and other troubles for the birds and a gradual loss of vigor on their part and loss of money on the part of their owners. These facts, and many others, on ways to house poultry at low cost are given in a Cornell bulletin, written by H. E. Botsford and sent free to of New York.

Brew, of the New York State College of Agriculture. Bacteria get into milk largely from unclean utensils, but with the proper equipment a milking machine may be cleaned as efficiently as a milk pall and with a little more work. After every milking period, draw through each unit at least a gallon of clean cold water, lifting the test cups up and down in order to allow the water and air to rush alternately through the rubber parts into the pail. Do this Immediately after milking because to allow the units to stand even for a short time permits the milk to dry, makes the machine more difficult to clean, and Increases the possibility of excessive bacterial growth. Follow the c6Id water at once by drawing through each unit at least one gallon of scalding water; the hotter the better. A handful of good washing powder Increases the efficiency of the hot water. It is this water which removes the grease-lik- e material that collects on the surfaces maof milk utensils. This grease-likterial furnishes food for bacterial growth, and If It Is not removed It renders any attempt to sterilize of little or no value. A fresh supply of cold and hot water should be used for each of the three rinsings. Scrub the metal and rubber parts of the machine with brushes after each use. The rubber parts may be disinfected either by Immersion in water which Is then heated to at least 170 degrees Fahrenheit and allowed to stand, covered until the next milking period, or by Immersion in a hypochlorite solution. Complete Information on cleaning milking machines may be obtained from the office of publication. State College of Agriculture, Ithaca, N. Y., by requesting Bulletin E 43 on Directions for Cleaning and Care of Milking Machines. . Too often the water supply on many of our dairy farms consists of stagnant pools and marshy creeks, which are not only a source of supply likely to limit the daily consumption but may also be the cause of ropy milk. The ropy milk bacteria are found In stagnant water, and cows wading through such places collect dirt on their udder and flanks which falls Into the pail at milking time. Here, conditions are Ideal for bacteria to grow and multiply, and in a few hours the milk exhibits a ropy appearance. Cows watered from a trough or tank, on the other hand, avoid dirt and there is less danger of contaminating the milk. Naturally cows in milk have need for more water than dry stock and young stock, but these, too, need a regular supply, and more in hot weather. The water supply in outlying pastures should be inspected at regular Intervals. Water Is just as necessary for body functions as food. In fact animals can survive longer without food than they can without waters The summer water supply on the dairy farm is of first Importance and needs to be well looked after. t tafe.

Synthetic Spirit Life looks rosy for him " Health worth more than fortune Some men feel that only cows with high production records will pay for care and attention to proper feeding. This is one of the fallacies In feeding Imwhich is responsible for provement that is made ip the average rations fed to dairy cows, It Is true that poor cows will not pay returns on exceedingly feeds when butterfat prices are low. On the other hand the Increased production of average cows will usually pay good returns on the additional feeds that are required to balance up the ration properly. Men who continue to follow the idea of giving their cows a poor ration try to console themselves with the fallancy that while their cows are less productive, It does not cost so much to feed them and therefore the net returns are greater. 'Accurate records kept on Iowa farms by- cow testing associations prove that the herds which cost the least for feed are usually not the most profitable. The reason is apparent, as cows in such herds do not receive enough feed In addition to what they require for maintenance, to produce , to their maximum capacity.
