Increased Cigaret Smoking.
“Are we becoming a cigaret na-
tion?” asks the United States Tobacco
Journal. This query is prompted by
the statistics of the cigar and cigaret
industries for the first three months
of the year. The figures show that
the output of cigarets in that period
exceeded by more than 50,000,000 the
output of cigars. The figures are, re-
spectively, 1,856,369,228 and 1,797,322,
811. In March alone there was a de-
crease of more than 5,000,000 in full-
sized cigars throughout the United
States and an increase of more than
109,000,000 in cigarets. It is unex-
plained whether this condition is a
result of the high prices of food, com-
pelling the cigar smoker to take to
cigarets, or is a burning protest
against the legislation in many states
against the paper rolls,
Rumors have been rife that the con-
stitution of young Japan is degenerat-
ing year after year, says the Eibun
Tsushinsha, but they are firmly’ de-

Things Get Better.
In spite of all the confusions and
thwartings of life, the habits and resi-
liences and the counterstrokes of fate,
it is manifest that, in the long run,
human life becomes broader than it
was, gentler than it was, finer and
deeper. On the whole—and nowadays
almost 'steadily—things get . better.
This is a secular amelioration of life,
and it is brought about by good will
working through the efforts of men.—

Baby’s Scalp All Crusted Over.
“Our little daughter, when three
months old, began to break out on the
head, and we had the best doctors to
treat her, but they did not do her any
good. They said she hadeczema. Her
scalp was a solid scale all over. The
burning and itching was so severe
that she could not rest, day or night.
We had about given up all hopes
when we read of the Cuticura Reme-
dies. We at once got a cake of Cuti-
cura Soap, a box of Cuticura Oint-
ment and one bottle of Cuticura Re-
solvent, and followed directions care-
fully. After the first dose of the Cuti-
cura Resolvent, we used the, Cuticura,
Soap freely and applied the Cuticura
Ointment. Then she began to im-
prove rapidly and in two weeks the
scale came off her head and new hair
began to grow. In a very short time
she was well. She is now sixteen
years of age and a picture of health.
We used the Cuticura Remedies about.
five weeks, regularly, and then we
could not tell she had been affected
by the disease. We used no other
treatments after we found out what
the Cuticura Remedies would do for
her. J. Fish and Ella M. Fish, Mt.
Vernon, Ky., Oct. 12, 1909.”

SUCCESSFUIL PIG GROWER.
Our experience in saving the pigs
and getting them started right has
been for about fourteen years.
The first thing necessary to be a
successful hog raiser is to get ready
in a right way. I build my houses
so the sow can keep warm if the ther-
mometer stands at zero. I breed my
sows to farrow in February and in
August. In the fall I sow about three
patches of rye and when it gets up
good I let my pigs run on it until
about Christmas, then I take them
off for the spring litter. When the
pigs are about one month old I begin
to give them warm cream separator
milk, and by the time they are nine
or ten weeks old I. have them ready
to wean and push to a finish at seven
or eight months.—Warren J. Smith,
in the Indiana Farmer. :
SILAGE IN LIEU OF PASTURE.
" Referring to feeding corn silage
the year round, Hoard’s Dairyman
says that when land is too expensive
to pasture, that is, when silage from
an acre will feed three or four cows
while an acre of pasture will feed only |
one or two cows, the silo. becomes one
of the most economical as well as the
best methods of preparing succulent
feed for cows the year round. We
believe that a silo is one of the best
methods of supplementing short pas-
ture during the dry time in summer.
Silage is not equal to good June pas-
ture, but we do not know of a better
substitute.
that more milk can be produced per
acre by the use of the silo than from
an acre of grass.
This is just the thing a good many
dairy farmers have yet to fully
realize, that corn silage can always
be relied on for producing milk, and
especially is the thing to carry milk
production through dry seasons when
there is no grass pasturage.
FEEDING COWS FOR PROFIT.
A practical dairy farmer in Canada,
referring to his experience, in the
Farm and Dairy, lays down the fol-
lowing rules for dairy feeding at the
greatest profit:
First, build a summer silo and
grow more corn, using ensilage to
supplement pastures in summer.
Second, take fifteen acres of land
(on a hundred-acre farm) near the
buildings. Divide into three fields.
Follow a three-year rotation thereon.
First year: Corn, an early variety.
Feed in August and September.
Second year: Mixed grain, oats,
peas and barley (four bushels per
acre) seed down ten pounds red
clover, four pounds timothy per acre.
Cut quite green in July. Do not al-
low to lodge.
Third year: Clover cut in late
June and early August. ;
Do not hesitate to feed this fifteen
acres of crop in the summer, even if
things should look blue for the win-
ter forage supply. Let no considera-
tion prevent its utilization at the
proper time, not even an abundance
of grass. It will always pay to feed
such forage in summer.
~ MIXING CATTLE BREEDS.
There is a good deal of force in the
following, on the subject of crossing
breeds, by a correspondent of the
He says:
. The tendency of the American
farmer in the past has been to hybrid-
ize all his farm animals. ‘Even his
hens all became a mixture after a
year or two. BHEspecially has this
been the case with farmers in the
Eastern States. Those who had Jer-
sey cows have crossed and re-crossed
with Holstein-Fresian bulls until
they have got neither one nor the
other, and some of them come very
nothing. Some farmers
seemed to think they could outwit
the Almighty by crossing the Jersey
with the Holstein and so get the large
flow of the Holstein with the rich.
milk of the Jersey. The difference
between the two breeds is too great.
Nature was shocked and dumbfound-
ed. The result has been in many
cases the small yield of the Jersey
coupled with the poor quality of. the
Holstein. ; ‘
There is a vast difference between
a good Holstein and a poor one, both
in quality and quantity of milk. Jer-
seys also differ very much in regard
to quantity of milk. A herd of first
class Jersey cows is as good as a
gold mine to a farmer who knows
how to handle them for best results
and improve them by judicious se-
lection. The same can be said of
the Holstein. The breeder of Hol-
stein cattle is quite apt to condemn
the Jersey cow, and the breeder of
the Jersey is apt to condemn the Hol-
.stein. There are noble specimens in
each breed, and the breeders, the
men who handle the animals, are re-
sponsible for so many poor ones. It
is the result of carelessness, lack of
judgment, taste and discrimination.
The Shorthorns are rapidly coming
to the front and the milking strain
of this breed will doubtless supplant
many of the mongrel Jerseys and
Holsteins that now occupy the land.
