WATERING COWS.
Care In the Quality of Water Provided
Is Important.
Tho bent arrangements for th«
watering of dairy cows I consider t®
be Individual basins between the cows
In the winter timo and running water
In the summer time. In the winter,
fcays the writer in Farmers' Review, I
water my cows out of doors, but that
Is because I do as I have to do and
not as I want to do. Most of the
farmers about here water their cows
out of doors.
Where water Is supplied at all In
the barns, the force that drives tho
water comes from tanks of windmill
or from hydraulic rams. The troughs
of cement seen in some barns, and
which run in front of all the cows, I
believe to be all right, but I prefer
the individual basins.
Most of the cows about here get
their water at the temperature it hap
pens to be when It comes from the
well, but in the winter time it would
pay to warm it. lam satisfied that
a cow that is given water with tho
chill taken off will drink more of It
and will consequently give more milk
than she otherwise would.
DAIRY NOTES.
The growing stock Is carrying your
pocketbook.
It's intelligence, not luck, that
counts in the dairy.
The cow with the small udder and
the big appetite seldom pays.
It's the happy and contented cow
that makes the farmer happy and con
tented.
The more we know about the cow,
the more probable will be our success
in handling her.
Linseed meal and bran are two im
portant elements in the ration. They
are expensive but they pay.
The manure pile on the dairy farm
may not represent half the profits, but
It is too valuable to be ignored.
Beans for Green Manure.
We know of one farmer that planted
beans too early, and the late frost
caught them, killing the whole crop.
He planted again, but this time so
thick that the pods did not form till
an early fall frost caught them, and so
the whole crop was lost. But the
growth of the beans had been a very
rank one, and the weeds had been kept
from growing. Tho mass of lank
herbage was plowed under and the
land left to be planted the rfext year.
The plowed-under beans proved to be
great enrichers of the soil, for they
added to it a very large quantity of
nitrogen, In addition to the humus.
This in its decay created acids which
set loose more plant food in the soil.
So the bean crop was not a total loss,
alter all.
Cooling the Milk.
A speaker at a Wisconsin institute
Bald: The main thing is to cool the
milk quickly to a temperature of GO
degrees or less, and it would pay the
dairyman to provide ice for this pur
pose. In the absence of ice an abundance
of well water will enable the patron
to quickly cool the milk to a temper
ature of 50 degrees or below. If the
cans are placed in cold water and tho
milk is stirred until cooled to the tem
perature of the water, which is usually
about 50 degrees, well and good; but
the average milker, after performing
a long day's work In the field and then
another half day's work, called for
variety's sake chores, will not stand
over the milk long enough to accom
plish this
The Dairy House. _
A good large well or dairy house Is
very necessary to the equipment of a
first-class dairy, but its use should be
confined to the uses of the dairy. Its
conversion into a sort of a store room
or receptacle for vegetables, tools,
worn out harnesses, etc., does not tend
to produce a fine flavored milk or stim
ulate the dairy appetite of the oc
casional visitor.
Kerosene Emulsion.
One-half pound soap, one gallon wa
ter, two gallons kerosene. Dissolve
the soap In water ov«* flre, Remove
#rom flre and add kerosene. Stir vio
lently. Use one part of emulsion to
15 parts water.
Burn the Rubbish.
Old rubbish is more valuable In the
form of ashes to tho gardener than
any other way. Wood ashes make ex
callent garden fertilizer If applied
properly.

STUDY NOT A NECESSITY.
End and Aim of Woman's Life, as Un
dcrstood by Rosie's Mother.
In one of the Philadelphia public
schools is a little girl pupil whose an
cestors and coreligionists have ever
held that the principal end and aim of
the life of a woman is marriage. This
little girl is well up In most of her
ctudies, but slio ha 3 an inveterate dis
like of geography and It seems impos
sible to teach the study to her. Tho
other day her teacher, made Impatient
by her seeming unwillingness to learn
her geography lesson, sent to Rosie's
mother a note requesting her to sec
that the girl studied her lesson. The
uext day showed no improvement,
however, and the teacher asked Rosie
whether she had delivered the note.
"Yes, ma'am," was the reply.
"And did your mother read the Rosie/'
Rosie/' said tho teacher.
"Yes, ma'm."
"What did she say?"
"My mother said that she didn't
know geography, an' she got married,
an' my aunt didn't know geography,
an' she got married, an' you know
geography, an' you didn't get mar
ried."
An Undesirable Article.
When Mr. B. went to call upon some
friends the other afternoon, he was on
his way out of town and so had his
traveling bag with him. This ho
placed in a corner, and when he rose
to leave he overlooked it. His hostess
happened to notice it before he had
reached the door, and called to her
little daughter:
"Marie, run after Mr. B. and tell
him he has left his grip here!"
The little one gave her mother one
swift glance of surprise, but flew duti
fully to obey orders.
"Oh, Mr. 8.," they heard her say,
"mother says you have forgotten to
take your grip with you." Then she
added, quickly, in a tone of polite
apology: "You see, most all of us
have had it this winter, and we'd
rather not have any more!"

"Why do you wear those 'rata,' I

"Tush, Mr. John," replied his cus

LOST S3OO.
Buying Medicine When Right Food
Was Needed.
Money spent for "tonics" and "brac
ers" to relieve indigestion, while the
poor old stomach is loaded with pas
try and pork, is worse than losing a
pocketbook containing the money.
If the money only is lost it's bad
enough, but with lost health from
wrong eating, it is hard to make the
money back.
A Mich, young lady lost money on
drugs but is thankful she found a
way to get back her health by proper
food. She writes:
"I had been a victim of nervous dys
pepsia for six years and spent three
hundred dollars for treatment in the
attempt to get well. None of it did
me any good.
"Finally I tried Grape-Nuts food,
and the results were such that, if it
cost a dollar a package, I would not
be without it. My trouble had been
caused by eating rich food such as
pastry and pork.
"The most wonderful thing that
ever happened to me, I am sure, was
the change in my condition after I
began to eat Grape-Nuts. I began to
improve at once and the first week
gained four pounds.
"I feel that I cannot express my
self in terms that are worthy of the
benefit Grape-Nuts has brought to
me, and you are perfectly free to
publish this letter if it will send some
poor sufferer relief, such as has come
to me."

NEARLY 300,000 IN 1907.
ABOUT SIXTY THOUSAND FROM
THE UNITED STATES.
Now that It ia known that in the
year Just closed nearly sixty thou
sand from the United States declared
their intention of making their homes
in Canada, it might not be out of
place to search for some reasons that
would bring this about. These people
are but following the example of the
flfty-flve or sixty thousand who did
the same thing the year previous, and
an almost equal number who the year
before that but followed the example
of the thousands of the year preced
ing. An excellent climate, certain and
positive crops of grain of all kinds,
good markets for their produce, land
—and good land, too — at low prices,
easy terms of payment, (not forget
ting the ICO acres of land given free
by the Government, particulars of
which the Canadian Government Agent
whose name appears elsewhere will
tell you about) and then the splendid
social conditions. The situation is
pretty well sized up by a writer In one
of the magazines. Quoting from this
article, we find this: "Those of us
who made good in the States," inter
jected another settler as if to con
tinue the story of his neighbor, "have
bad it easy from tho etart; a little
money is a mighty good thing on com
ing into a new country. But those
who make an entry, or even buy lands
at low rates, are able to square things
In two or three seasons' crops. Thera
are hardships In building shanties,
and then with increasing prosperity
getting things into shape for better
homes. But affairs go much as In the
States. We have the largest liberty in
the world; there is more home rule in
the Provinces than in the several
states of the Republic. Taxes are
light and with only a few million peo
ple west of Winnipeg we don't get in
each other's way. One's friends over
the line probably thought we would not
live through the winter; and while it
is cold, real cold, it is free from the
moisture experienced in the east.
Schools are good as encouraged by
the Government; the enterprising
American promoter and Yankee drum
mer see to it that we take notice of
the latest improvements and best agri
cultural machinery. Altogether we are
as near to affairs as wo would be on
our own farms In the States. Winni
peg bears the same relation to us as
Chicago did at home; and Edmonton
with the surrounding region advances
as Omaha did in tho days when we
were as young as tho boys yonder.
We get together much as they did in
the granges over the border; the gov
ernment has established experimental
schools of agriculture, and progress in
every line is stimulated. This is a
great region for grazing," we hear the
Calgary citizen continuing, "and then
■with building elevators of wheat at
one dollar a bushel, many of us find
time togo over to the live stock ex
hibition in Chicago or visit old friends
during the course of the winter.
Every man is taken for what he is
worth or for what he can raise; and
in this good air and on this fertile soil
we intend to show our old friends
that we are made of the right stuff—
that we are chips of the old block
who built up the American West."
Hope.
Walter Damrosch tells of a matron
in Chicago who, in company with her
young nephew, was attending a
musical entertainment.
The selections were apparently en
j tirely unfamiliar to the youth; but
when the "Wedding March" of Men
delssohn was begun he began to evince
1 more interst.
"That sounds familiar," he said.
"I'm not strong on these classical
pieces, but that's a good one. What is
it?"
"That," gravely explained the
matron, "is the 'Maiden's Prayer.'"—

MACHINE-GROUND PAINT.
Occasionally ope hears the "hand
mixed" paint of the painter slightingly
spoken of aa "unscientific" and "not
thoroughly mixed." The facts are all
on the side of the painter and his hand
prepared paint.
It la the moßt "Bclentiflo" paint there
Is, because it Is made on the spot tp
■ult the particular purpose for which
it is to be used. It is as scientific as
a good doctor's prescription. If the
painter did not mix It thus it would
be aa unscientific aa & patent medi
cine. Moreover, the paint which a
good painter turna out is made of
genuine white lead and pure linseed
oil. If he does not mix it himself he
is not sure what is in it, and conse
quently his client cannot be aure.
As for not being thoroughly mixed
by machinery, that is simply a mis
statement. White Lead as made by
National Lead Company is thorough
ly incorporated with 7 or 8 per cent,
of pure Linseed oil in the factory, mak
ing a paste. This paste need only be
thinned with additional linseed oil to
make it ready for the brush.
The thorough incorporation of pig
ment and oil has already been accom
plished before the painter gets it.
To know how to tell pure white lead
la a great advantage to both painter
and house-owner. National Lead Com
pany will send a tester free to anyone
interested. Address the company at
