SKIM MILK CALF.
V Story of Profit. Provided the Cow
la a Good Milker.
By D. H. OTIB, Kansas experiment sta- ,
tlon.
The question is often asked as to
how large a skim milk calf should be
and what weight it should attain at
different ages. In order to' give a sat
isfactory'answer to this question we
have averaged up the weights of a
large number of skim milk calve* that
we have rais«-d at this station. We see
that at six months of ag>- the av.rage
calf weighs pounds. We sec that
the average skim milk calf consumes
S5-5.2 pounds of skim milk, l'Jt.l jiounds :
of grain and 357.2 pounds of hay to 1
produce 100 pounds of gain. The feed
cost of this PjO pounds of gain is S'J.'iS,
the labor I>l cents, making a total of
S3.JiC». This 858.2 pounds of skim milk
represents !<53.5 pounds of whole milk,
which, with an average test of 4.0S
per cent, makes a butter fat yield of
38.9 pounds.
The average price of butter fat at
the college creamery during the past
year was 21.08 cents per pound. This
makes a total value of $8.20. Deduct
from this the cost of raising a skim
£
LIVING MONUMENT TO SKIM MILK.
[Average daily gain for 105 days, 2.29
pounds.]
luilk calf, $3.50, and we have left $4.01
to pay for the expenses of milking and
hauling 05.'} pounds of milk to the
creamery.
These figures do not toll the whole
story sis to the profit. Cows that are
milked produce larger yields than
when suckling a calf. For Instance,
the college herd has averaged 0,278.6
pounds of milk per cow during the
year 10<>2. The amount of skim milk
consumed by the skim milk calf repre
sents 1.978 pounds of whole milk. Sub
tract this from the average product of
tlx- average cow In the college herd,
and we have 4,205.6 pounds to be cred-
Ited to raising calves on skim milk.
According to the average test of the
herd, this milk would contain 175.20
pounds of inittcr fat, which, at 21.08
cents per pound, would amount to
$31.05. This 4,205.0 pounds of extra
whole milk produced by the cow that
Is milked would yield 3,866.1 pounds of
skim milk, which, at 15 cents per 100,
would be worth $5.80, or a total of
$42.75 additional Income i>er cow. Add
to this the $17.01, the Income from the
butter fat secured from the milk fur
nishing the skim milk for the calf, and
we have a total of $50.70. 1 >educt from
this the cost of raising a calf, $7.43.
and we have left $52..'13 to pay for the
expenses of milking and the hauling
of 0,273.6 pounds of milk to the cream
ery.
According to statements received
from successful Kansas dairymen, it
takes thirteen minutes to milk a cow.
Assuming that an average cow will
milk 800 days, we have a total of slx
ty-flve hours, to lie charged to each
cow. At 12% cents per hour this costs
$8.12. It will probably cost 12% cento
per 100 pounds to haul the milk, mak
ing an expense of $7.84 per cow, mak
ing the total expense for milking and
hauling $15.00. Subtract this from
$52.33, and we have left $30.37 per
head to pay Interest on the money In
vested In a common cow, besides pay
ing for the labor of the men and boys
on the farm.
The figures Just given represent av
erages. No enterprising dairyman will
be satisfied with averages. The expe
rience In raising calves outlined above
indicates clearly that unless the cow
gives considerably more inlik than Is
needed for the calf It will not pay to
milk her.
Outlook For Horse Itrocriliiir.
As to comparative profits In stock
raising, my observation teaches ine
that the average man will succeed In
the following order: Cows, sheep, pigs,
liorsi's. If the man has the ability and
fancy, sheep far outclass all other
stock for a sure thing. At the present
time horses are very high and In great
demand. In fact, In the twenty-five
years that I have been In the business
there has been no time, with the ex
ception of 1803 and 1804, but that
the demand for a strictly first class
business and family driving horse lias
• been greater than I could supply. The
business of horse breeding Is the most
alluring of all as well as the most
risky and hazardous, says a Vermont
corre«pondont In Itural New Yorker.
Oniii f tillurr For t oilllnic Moth.
Clean culture pays without question
jgnlnst the codling moth. Clods fur
nlsh places for the larvae to pupate,
ind brush and primings furnish fa
rorlte quarters for such purposes.
Many cocoons were found under
brush, and trees under which brush
was allowed to lie showed a corre

eo*oons under the bark flakes and

AN IDEAL SILO.

If we were called upon to descrllsi lu
Hi' 1 fewest possible words a concrete
silo, we would say a perfect silo. We

cretc silo a perfect one, says a firm of
Virginia farmers In American Agrlcul
turlst. lu making the ne-cssary e*oa
willon for our silo we found an excel
lent quality of coarse sand, almost
gravel. This we saved for mixing with
Portland cement of the very best tptal
lly. We excavated twelve feet below
the surface. This carried us four feet
below the level of our stable floor. In
this we made no mistake, as It was a
very easy matter to raise the silage
that distance from the bottom of the
silo. Next we built a set of forms out
of one Inch hemlock boards to be used
In the construction of the walls. These
forms were to be placed Upon the In
ildc and outside of the walls and fas
tened together by rods, so as to be
easily detachable when It was neccs
wary to raise them. They were about
eight feet long and two feet high, This
wn as high as four masons could lay
the wall In one day and work conven
lently. The forms were placed eight
een Inches apart, the tiilclujcss of the ,
WHIIS, and firmly held together by the (
rods. This formed a continuous circle
Uitt alio.
Methods o( Construction.
The bottom of the slk> -was thorough
l.r grouted to the extreme outside of
the walls, and the construction of tin
walls was begun upon this grouting
Each morning found the walls sufil
elently set, or hardened, to proceed
with the work. The sand and eemeut
were mixed In the proportion of four
of the former and one of the latter.
The stones— Jagged ones are pref
erable—■were of any size from a hen's
egg to fifty pounds. Great care was
taken that no stone should reach with
in three inches of the forms on either
side. This space was thoroughly
grouted with mortar only. This pre
vented the frost from having a con
tlntious passage through the walls and
freezing the silage. The door frames
were securely attached by taking a
number of old wagon tires, cutting
them in five foot lengths. One end was
bent over six inches and firmly imbed
ded In the masonry. By cutting a
heavy thread on the other eud, extend
ing through the door frame and fasten
ing with n nut, or bur, it was secure.
The frames were set four feet from the
bottom of the silo, on a level with our
stable floor. The wagon tires were five
feet apart and placed on each side of
tho door frames. The walls when com
pleted were comparatively smooth.
The only additional treatment they re
ceiVed was a heavy coat of pure ce
ment washed Inside and outside with
an ordinary mason's brush.
Capacity* Coat and Quality.
Our silo is twenty-two feet In diame
ter, Inside measure; thirty feet high,
with walls eighteen inches thick. It
has a capacity of nearly 300 tons. It
has a board roof, circular In form, cov
ered with asbestus roofing felt. We
can see no reason why this silo should
not stand for many generations. It
cost, counting all labor and materials,
nearly .<7OO. We are confident that
with our previous experience we could
construct another of same size and
quality for SSOO to $550.
It seems strange that any one should
hesitate about deciding which kind to
erect, provided stones are enslly pro
cured. When a concrete structure Is
once linished It Is pracUcally finished
for a lifetime. There is no shrinking
of staves or tightening of hoops and
no painting, no. admission of air be
tween the staves and consequent spoil
ed silage, no rotting down of the whole
structure In a few years, to be replac
ed by a new one.

between the two long pieces at one
end; then nail all three pieces togeth

put between the two long pieces at the
open cud; let half of the ring come be
low the long piece. Drive a nail
through so us to hold the ring In be
tween i«ieces. Drive another nail on
Inside of the ring an inch nearer tho
open end; put one on the Iwttom edge
in front of the ring, so you can't push
It forward. Nail the pieces to the post
so the latch will hit the ring when you
shut the gate. The ring will revolve
when the latch hits It and drop In front
of the Tatch when tho gate Is shut, says
a Farm and ltanch correspondent.
Anlmnlo In Art.
"Sheep are In strong demand In-ths
picture market," said the manager of u
department store art gallery. "If I
were a painter of animal studies I
would confine my work entirely to pic
tures of sheep. They sell better than
any other animal pictures. I suppose
Uie reason is that sheep lend them
selves to more artistic poses than oth
er quadruped subjects. They can be
more effectively grouped, and the con-_
tour of their bodies Is In soft and
rounded lines well adapted to artistic
work. Then sentiment is a factor In
the popularity of these pictures. The
women and children always are at
tracted by them, especially by pictures
of sheep lost In n storm, which appeal
to their sympathies. Cows are a poor
Hecond to sheep In popularity, and the
demand for horses Is very light. The
horse is a somewhat conventional sub
ject and one very difficult to portray
artistically, while the sheep can bo
easily and effectively Introduced Into a
picture." -I'hlladelpliln Itecord.

The Critical Periods
in a Woman's Life
Are When the Change Conies From
Childhood to Womanhood and Later
When the Organs of the Pelvic
Region Cease Their Work.
DR. A. W. CHASE'S KERVb PILLS.
When the child changes from girlhood
to womanhood and later in life
when the organs of the pelvic region
cease their work, there is a strain
thrown npon the nervous system, that
reqnires outside aid that there may be
supplied a proper amount of additional
strength and resistive power. This
Dr. A. W. Chase's Nerve Pills do to a
certainty by their ability to supply to the
nervous system and the organs affected,
an amount of nerve strength and energy
that enables them to accommodate them
selves rapidly aDd easily to the changes
taking place.
Mrs. Julia Rowland, of No. 264 Pearl
St., Buffalo, writes:
"Both myself and danghter. aged IT,
are deeply indebted to Dr A. W. Chase
and his Nerve Pills. They certainly a:e
a grand tonic to the nerves I used
them about a year ago. to give me the
strength and vitality to go throngh the
ordeal that nsnally comes to woman at
change ot life, and found all the nerv
ousness, crying s[tells rnd weakness dis
appear in a hurry This led me to give
theni to my daughter about the time she
began to have the endless trouble some
girls do in early life, and the medicine
acted equally as well with her. She
grew strom; and steady—the color be
came good—the languor and lassitude
disappeared and she was able to go
about her school duties as usual. I con
sider the Dr. A W. Chase Nerve Pills
nneqaaled as a nerve and general tonic
in such cases and gladly recommend
them to others who suffer in a similar
manner.'" 7
