Easy to spoil Babies-Some Advice
For Mothers.
A baby six months old should spend
at least sixteen hours in sleep, and
after that. unt-il the child reaches the
school age, one half of every twenty-
four hours should' be devoted to sleep.
Young children have not sufficilent
1lld'gn'lent to be allowed to decide for
themselves' when to go to bed and
what to eat. If they did, they would
not need* mothers to care for them
after they ,were able to walk. But
thesechildren do need mothers who
realize their responsibility enough to
inake an effort_to ‘lsarmwbat ls best
for their childfeii. It‘should` be con-
sidered even more necessary for a
prospective -mother to*-study how to
he a mother' than it is for s, young
woman to study to be a teacher or
stenographer.. lThe._cere» of babies is
too important to be .left to tradition
and' superstition. - V ' -
When -weconsider that halt the
deaths- among "babies, might' have
been prevented ifthe mothers of these
babies'ho_d'-- known how to care for
their lit_tle.ones properly, we realize
the importance, of every- yfoung- mother

Not so. As with the horesless carri-

but it wiili replace the poor horses,
not the beet. It cannot, even if ii
fulfills all the expectations of the
manufacturers drive all the horses
off any real farm. Every farm has
work for horses that -the tractor can-
not. do. Winter, with its teaming
makes the horse secure. Certain
farm work al'l the year increases this
security. The only question is, how
many horses will tractors replace-
Time will tell. The tractor is likely
to prove a valuable power, and, like
the automobile, is here for good, but

Canada is a new country. ln the
ne-xt. few years thousands of new
farms wllil be brought under cultiva-
tion requiring more horses, for every
farm must have them no matter what
other power is available. There is a
scarcity of horse-s in ‘Europe, which
will -surely increase the demand here
eventually. The United States has
sent hundreds of thousands to the
war zone. and demand is keen in thai
country.
The heavy horse is a necessity, sl.
is the tractor. There is work for both
and each will make the' other more
work. Again we. say the horse will

Home sfuov
Home study is perhaps the mosl
conclusive test of a. boy's seriousness
of purpose. lt is only by the exer
cise of his own will to study at home
away from the association of a teach
er, that a' boy gains that control ove:
himself, that ability to do unpleasant
but necesary things, that sense o‘
personal responsibility so necessary
to a succesful life.
BAKED PRUNES.
Wash one pound of prunes and soak
them three or four hours in a little
water. Put them in a been pot, cover

`til the prunes are almost candied.

FARM DONT'S.
-Don’t forget tllat flock of sheep

turn more clear profit than ully
branch of farming you crlll engage in.
DONT l0l‘i§€t to give the stock
plenty of water. Water is as essenti-
ill as feed.
Don’t forget that a good cream
separator is a valuable machine tc-
have on a farm on which there are
two or more cows.
Doll’t forget to sllelter your illu-
Ullliiflry when you are done with it.
Under it tree or in a fence corner is
a very poor place to leave a machine.
Rusirnlld decay ruin a machine soon-
el' than use.
Don’t forget that a small gasoline
engine will do small jobs more quick
ly and easily than you can do them.
Dc-n't forget that an open we-ll ol
oil on any machine you use. Oil rc
duces friction and friction means
wear. A properly oiled machine will
run longer' and easier than a poorly
oiled one. Oil is cheaper than neu
machinery or repairs.
Don’t forge-L that an open week oi
cistern, or one with a poor top on
It, or one close to a barn or cesspoc-`
_is a source of never-ending danger.
Don’t forget that every weed which
ls allowed to go to seed means sever-
al weeds next year.
Don’t forge-t the birds. lf you will
be a friend to them they will be both
GET HIGH AVERAGE IN HENS_
Better have a good average than a
phenomenal one; better have good
sized eggs than small ones which
necessarily must come from the fam-
ous 200-egg layers. It is pot natural
for hens to give large egg records
and large- eggs. at the some time.
That fact is proved by the two-year"
old hen which lays fewer eggs than
she does lay are of a generous size’
Strive for quality more than quanity.
_ DISEASE OF CALVES.
Scours is the most common com-
plaint of the young calf and is in-
variably caused by overfeeding
sour or stale milk at varied tempera-
tures. Prevention is in every case
batter than cure. On the first symp-
toms of the disease appearing the
milk ration should be immediately
reduced to -half. If the trouble still
gets worse give a drench of one to
two ounces castor oil ill a pint of
milk. Care is necessary in bringing
up to a full-riltion again, which must
be dons very gradually. Acouple
of raw eggs will also be found useful
lu checking the disease. The use of
lime water, one part to three parts
of m_i|k, will often prove of benefit.

A horse accustomed to hard work
and good feed- should not be ,heavily
fed during a rest. Probably no grain
at all, or at least a very small quan-
tity should ‘be given on Sundays and
other rest days.
Wash and oil the collars occasion-
ally. Two minutes work at the end of
the day is sufficient to keep the sur-
face of a collar clean, soft and pli-
' able. A damp sponge and a cake- of
harness soap kept in the curry comb
box are the only equipment needed.
Shoulder galls are due- to one of two
things. , Dirty_ or ill-fitting collars.
There is no excuse for either.
Water should tllways be given to
horses before and not after feeding.
, lf they are allowed to drink immedi-
ately after a meal, the water is liable
to wash some of the undigested food
into the intestines, and produce indi-
gestion or collc.
Grooming should always be attend-
ed to, Horses left ungroomed and un-
dried are liable to skin ailments,
Bore backs, 'collar galls, and parasi-
tic affections. Chills and illness
also follow in the wake where anim-
als receive faulty attention in this
respect. Half an hour twice s. day
oil grooming is'-time well spent.-
Proper ventilation of stables is ab-
solutely necessary il lung diseases
and other trouble-s are to be prevent-
ed.
Many a valuable horse has -been
lost through carelessness in pastur-
ing after in hard duy‘s work. The
tealuster ahnuld_ fc-eil his llorse wcll

have i-lomething to make him tired it

ill pretty good to tack over every edge
of board that is exposcil.
(ic-ids in ,horses must be broken ill
time. It is dangerous to work hors-
es when they are suffering from
cough and difficulty in swallowing or
losis of appetite. They should ill all
cases be kept in and trcuteii.
THE GOOD HORSE lS_SECURE
Quite re»ccnf_ly many farmers have
been heard to remark that tile horse
was doomed as a factor in Canadian
agriculture. We would not care to go
so far as to give utterance to such a
belief. True, the automobile. and
rightly so, has replaced hundreds and
hundreds oi’ light horses, but it can-
not replace them all_ The farmer who
rides in his- “car" in summer is mighty
gilad to draw -the lines over the back
of his trusty "driver" and tuck him-
self c0mfost¢bi»r-in-- his high-bodied
cutter when the snow is two feel
deep onthe concession and piled
fence high on the side lines. For win-
ter country transportation the auto-
mobile isn’t in' it. For the good roads
in summer the horse is fast becoming
s. back number. Folly it is for the
man interested ln "cars" -to claim
as foolish is it for the horsemen to
say that the motor has no effect upon
the horse business". There is and oil-
ways will be a market for cars and
horses both, and both must be improv-
ed as the years go by. A high-class
saddle' horse, the- best of the carriage
class, and the fleet-footed 'roadster
will always be in demand in limited
numbers for riding, driving, and show-
rlng purpose-s. The point for the
horsemen to rcallize is' that. nothing
but highlclass stock will do. The aut-
omobile has driven the cull into otlli-
vion. The best is the only light horse
that will meet ready sale.
DEAD GAME SPORT.
The American Horse Breeder
some time ago suggested a friendly
race between the two veteranydrivers,
Dr. J. 'l`. Jenkins, of Charlottetown
aged 88, and E. H. Greeley, of Ells-
worth, Me., 84 each of whom is still
actively connected with the racing
game. To encourage such an event
the Cllarlotte. N. B.. County Ag-
ricultufal Society has. offered a liber-
al purse to -these gentlemen to com-
pete for the race to take place on
the lst July. on its track at St. Ste
phen, N. B. Dr. Jenkins tells The
ous.-dlnu »thnt,hc is suite willing to
meet Mr. Greeley at St. Stephen as
suggested provided the race is sche-
duled for some time near the Halifax
meeting so that he can go from one
place to the other. The lst of July
will not suit him, as there are races
at home on that dats in which his
horses will pal-Eiciipiatc.
BINQARA BROUGHT $5,200.
Blngara, the sterling sire of trott-
ers, brought $5,200 the top price at
the Old Glory Sale in New York on
the opening day. This sum was llillfl
to the- estate of William Russell
Allen by E. J. Tranter, an lsuctloneer
for the’ Fasig-Tipton Company. The
sales that day were confined to the
123 horses were sold. The price
paid for Bingara was disappointing

.FEEDNG THE DAIRY COW FOR
MOST PROFITABLE RETURNS
Dairymen who bring their cows to
the highest stage of production dur-
ing winter months must aim stimulat-
ing summer condl-tions. This ls more
easily said than _ii'one. During late
spring and early summer the dairy
herd reaches the highest production,
and the quality of the product is su-
perior to that of other seasons. Lux-
urlant pailtuib giwéi abundance of
feed, which is colli-li ered' to be near-
ly a balanced ratioll. Grass is both
succulent and palatable and in se-
curing it cows receive exercise ill a
moderate temperature. Dalrymen
who al'e ln a position to furnish these
conditions seizure the maxinlunl profit
from their herds liurlng the tinle' they
must be confined to the stable and
fed oil stored' feed. Any kind ol’ feed
will not produce milk in paying quarr-
tities. The ilenlands on tile allimal
be converted' into nlilk ami butter-fat.
Milk is high in protein, therefore
feeds containing fills lliliricnt ill
large quantities are licieessary. tiar-
bohydrates and fat are also required'
and the relationship existing between
these feeds should be' around one of
protein to five or six of carbohydrat-
es. Wider rations are fed, but cows
oil heavy production require that the
ration be somewhat nilrrowe-r. The
amount of feed' must be sufficient to
‘maintain tile system, over that amount
is left for production. However, the
cow is so constituted that for ll time
she will pruilllr-c evcll wllcll ki-pt ull

and' corn silage make ideal coarse
feeds for the dairy cow. These feeds
will produce al fair flow of milk with-
out graiils. Alfalfa cannot be grown
on all soils but reil clover ann' corn

greater quantities of concentrates are

amount of expensive concentrates.
All cows are not of the some tem
Deranlent. Some put the extra. feed
on their backs instead of in the poll.
On this account a study should be
made of the requirements of the'in-
dividual animal. ln the best bred
herds cows vary in their.productivl~
ability, therefore to obtain the great-
est profit, records should be kept of
both milk and feed, and' tests madr-
occasionally to ascertain if it would
pay to increase or decrease the grain.
The cow should have all the goofi
qualify rougllage she wants but tha
graln may b_e regulated by ber pril-
duction_ The following feeding _stan
dard', based on rations which have
given excellent results in practive, is
taken from Hcnry's "Feeds and Feed
ing." As previously stated, a 1,000
lb cow requires .7lbs. digestible pw
tein and it total of 7.925 pounds diges
tlble nutrients for her maintenance'
to this should be allllcd .286 pound
digestible rlutrlellts, of which ,011
_poulllls uri- protein, for each. pound or
three plvr i-ont. lllilk. For each pound
of 3_6 per conf. milk .316 and .04i~
must be aiideil' respectively, and for 4
per rent. milk, .3¢6 pound's and .054
pounds. This would make the total
nutrients required by a cow giving 50
pounds of 3.5 per cent. milk, 23.79
pounds. A rule followed by some dairy
nicn is to feed about one pound br
i-oucentratcs per day for each pound'
or butter-fat givell the week, 'i‘hua_
a cow making 14 pounds of buttdl 'iz
week would be fed 14 pounds of con
ccntrutes daily in addition to tlu-
roughnge she requires. When whole
nlilk is null-keted. a rule is to feed one
pound' of concentrates per day for
clit kinds oi' lrillti-_rial wliil-_ll are in' each follr pounds of milk produced.
According to this'a cow giving 50
pounds of lnllk per day would' reqtliro
l2l,§ pounds of concentrates, mild-~
up of glnins and mill feeds. to balsncr
the ration. These rules are only-all
proximate. Keeping records of feril
and nlilk and doing a little. expsr'
‘mentlng is the- preferable method.
Eacll dairyman must study the ind!
vidual cows in his herd. The feed
which gives best results with one may
not prove so satisfactory ,jw_ltll~a.nli-
ther. Balanced lations containing thi'
proper proportions of the djlffermlt
nutrients can be made up from _a.gf-_cgi
variety of feeds., The`refor`e,..} tgi-
dal-ryman should first consider-_wh 1
he is growing on the farm and ;.ff,'n_s~
cessary purchase those con,c_snt`rat¢f
which furnish nlost protein. When
grain is scarce brewers' grains, lin-

Feeding a balanced lation is no'
in itself sufficient for profitable pri
duction. The cow must be made,
