The liquid tends to collect in drops and much of it roils off. To overcome this certain materials known as spreaders are used. A Legume hay is practically a necessity iu producing milk at the lowest possible, cost, asserts C. L. Blackman, . extension specialist in dairying for the Ohio State university. And the dairy farmer who fears that he will run short of clover or alfalfa hay for his herd, need not be without a good legume hay.

Among' the best spreaders are soap, certain oil emulsions, glue, and casein. Casein is by far the most satisfac- tory spreader obtainable at present. In its pure form it does not mix with water, and it must be combined with an alkali before it can be put into the spray tank. The manufacturer generally does this, but any grower can mix his own spreader by directions the Department of Agriculture will fyrnish upon application. - Alfalfa Satisfactory Pasture for All Stock Alfalfa makes a satisfactory horse pasture, and in fact is good for any class of stock, the only danger being that of bloat when the growth Is very luxuriant and, in wet weather. It Is advisable to have some tame grass pasture alongside the alfalfa so that horses can have a variety of feed, in which case they are uot so likely to take Injury from the alfalfa. There is not much likelihood of introducing noxious weeds into a farm through the use of sweet clover or alfalfa. The first crop is very often cut for seed, though some fanners make a practice of cutting the first crop early and high and allowing the second crop to mature for seed. Where seed is grown commercially, the first crop is the one generally used. Sweet Clover Found to Be Popular Legume White sweet clover proved to he the best legume as a money mnker in comparison with four other legumes, on the soils, according to G. J. Badger. University of Illinois. The crops of wheat, corn and opts following the use of biennial, white sweet clover were worth more money than after any other legume, but, red Values clover was a close second. of crops following hubam (annual sweet clover), yellow blossom sweet clover alsike and yellow biennial were close together but below red clover. The yields of wrn following the different clovers were 17.7 bushels, following white sweet clover. 15.4 for red clover, 15 afteralsike, 13.4 after yellow ' sweet clover and 12 bushels after bubam. Wheat yielded highest after hubam and oats yielded highest after yellow sweet clover. light-colore- Many stock keepers fail to balance their rations because they feel It nec- essary to feed what they have at hand. For example: A farmer may have a large supply of alfalfa or clover and, knowing that this is an excellent feed, especially for dairy stock, he will feed too much protein, which will result In a loss of feed as well as production. It probably would pay him very well to sell some of his alfalfa and buy corn or barley. On the other hand, he may have a large supply of timothy hay, corn silage and corn, and his ra-- , tions woefully lack protein as well as minerals; for in our protein feeds we generally have a high per cent of minerals and vitamins. There are many feeds in the form of forage, grains or mill stuff, and in any state or county they generally can be produced in sufficient quantities and at low enough prices to warrant profitable production of stock and stock products. But to obtain results it is necessary to give the animal a balance as to protein and carbohydrates. This also applies to minerals.

The price of butterfat is always highest In fall, winter, and early spring. Cream can- be more easily and more economically handled in the cooler weather. - Feeding good cows is more profitable than feeding poor ones. Cull out the boarder animals. Butterfat production depends upon the inherited producing qualities of the cow, the kind and amount of feed, and the care and management given the cow. There are many excellent commercial mixed protein feeds on the market which have the advantage over single protein concentrates, like linseed meal, cottonseed meal, gluten feed, etc. The value of feeding dairy cows well during the summer cannot be measured entirely in the milk production at that time. The better care has a beneficial effect that lasts over into the winter following. When prices of dairy products are it is a good time to put the herd a more efficient basis of production. Cutting down the feed Is not considered good economy; culling out inferior cows Is a profitable practice. low on can with the Keep' Insects black barnL Away Outdoors!

Airscrew Train in Germany Trains operated by a propeller-drlvei- ) engine are possible as the result of tests made recently in Hanover, Germany. The engine resembled an armored car and the two propellers were driven by motors. The experiments were similar to those being made in Scotland with the George Bennie railplane, a car guided by rails built on a series of trestles and driven 120 miles an hour by aircraft propellers. t cigar-slmpe- d Trade and Barter Larkes Im getting divorced.
