PROVIDE CLEAN FEED LOT.
3ne Farmer Who Has Tried It Rec
ommends That It Be Paved
with Brick.
^ is the best plan of arrange
ment and construction for a cattle
feeding yard tliai shall be convenient
and sanitary seems to remain an open
question. Some have advocated brick
floors, while others will have noth
ing to do with them. The only con
sensus of opinion there seems to be
on the subject is that it is almost
impossible to keep the feeding yard
clean ami sanitary. There is little
doubt that muddy feed lots are one
r— -—--—
BRICKED OUTDOOR FEED LOT.
of the most important questions
which must be dealt with by the stock
raiser, and in this connection it may
be advantageous to consider the plan
of an Illinois feeder as described in a
recent bulletin of the Illinois station.
The illustration represents the feed
lot and shelter of Hon. E. E. Chester,
of Champaign county. This pavement
has been in use two years. It is 24
by 80 feet. The bricks were laid flat
on six inches of gravel, the latter be
ing packed by tramping with horses
until a solid surfare was secured.
J4rick costing eight dollars per thou
sand were used, and a cement wash
was applied after the bricks were laid.
No setting or cracking has yet been
observed. The labor was done by the
regular farm help. The curbing con
sists of curbstones 18 inches in width
and three inches in thickness, sat
edgewise into the ground. The feed
bunks are placed inside the shed, as
shown in the cut.
The yards and shelter are designed
to accommodate about F>0 cattle. In
dry weather the cattle remain in the
larger yard a considerable portion of
the time. The advantage of the pave
ment is chiefly in giving the cattle
easy access to water and shelter. “A
steer will generally eat pretty well,
even standing in the mud,” says Mr.
Chester, "but my experience has been
that a fat steer will take less water
than he needs If he must work to get
to it. and will not take proper advan
tage of shelter unless it is where he
can reach it easily. There is no ques
tion in my mind of the wisdom of
paving the area adjacent to water and
shelter in a muddy locality.”
The shelter consists of a building
20 by 26 feet. 20-foot posts, with two
wings, each 20 by 30 feet. The por
tion used as cattle-shelter is thus 20
by SO feet. On the upper floor of the
middle portion is stored dry corn-fod
der run through an ensilage cutter.
This is fed into the bunks below,
through an open shaft at the front of
the bin. Another bin 10 by 20 feet
occupies the lower floor of the main
building, and corn can thus be stored j
a few steps from the feed bunks so as
to be fed easily by basket if desired.
dairy hints.
The milking machine promises to be
come quite a factor before long.
A good cow is worth more money
than she brings in ihe market.
Good breeding and good feeding will
give an average weight of 1,000 pounds
to a calf at 12 to 14 months old.
The dairy business cannot be learned
in one day, one month, or one year.
There are things ve must practice be
fore we can learn them.
For removing warts on a cow's teats
a Me. reader says to apply sweet oil two
or three times daily, rubbing ii in well,
and the warts will soon disappear.
A poor cow or calf can often he made
to come up to the standard of the heid
by a little extra care and attention at
the beginning of the grass season.
To Clean Mold-Board of Plow
Sometimes the moldboard of the plow
will not “scour" when it is first put into
the ground, even if it was cleaned off
nicely after it was used last, lake a
little coarse gravel, a bit of an old brail
sack, and scrub the moldboard well be
fore starting out. This will take off
the least bit of rust and help the steel
to turn.—Farm Journal.

SOME FAULTS IN DAIRIES
Conditions Which One City Milk In
spector Found to Exist on
Some Farms.
' A city milk Inspector visited the
farms supplying milk to his city and
found runny Improper conditions exist
ing. In. his report given below can you
find any item which would condemn
your dairy:
1. Barns not sufficiently ventilated.
2. Surroundings not sanitary, espe
cially as to removal of manure, which I
usually found piled up against the barn
in a convenient place. This should not
be allowed to accumulate, but should
be removed daily.
3. Stanchions should be better
drained, and no stagnant water or pigs
allowed, in the barn yard.
4. Milk houses not usually provided
with screens or cement floors. Flies
noticed in milk.
5. Cow's udders should be cleansed
better. Some had an entirely wrong
idea of cleanliness, both as to the cows
and as to the hands and the clothing
of the milkers. In one instance, a small
bucket of cold water and a thin, dirty ,
looking rag were used for all the cows, j
By the time the udders of six cows were
washed off the water and wash rag were
not very clean.
6. In several dairies each milker
would use several pails, and after fill
ing once would leave it stand uncovered,
open to the flies and numerous sources
of infection always present. At two
places 1 found helpers straining milk
through dirty cloths, in which a handful
of flies had found their last resting
place.
7. Cans not sterilized by boiling wa
ter or steam, but hastily washed with
lukewarm water, and set aside to dry,
under roof, sometimes with cover on.
This should not be done. It is impor
tant to sterilize them with boiling wa
ter or superheated steam every time
they are used, then put upon a clean
frame, upside down, with covers off,
and fully exposed to fresh air. Bottles
and other containers should be treated
likewise.
8 Chickens allowed too many liber
ties about the place. It is impossible
to train a chicken, but the screens which
are needed to keep out flies and other
insects will keep them out.
9. Improper feeding. Some dairymen
consider certain feed good which 1 do
| not think is fit to use. I will report
more fully upon this important subject
j when I have concluded my investiga
! tions.
10. At one farm 1 noticed dogs were
used for driving h1s cows. This 1 do
| not believe good practice.
11. In one place I found a bad well.
; The water was used tot the cows and
also for rinsing the cans. When ty
phoid fever is caused by the milk and
i it has been traced to the milk in sev
! eral epidemics, it is invariably due to
water used in rinsing the milk cans or
! other containers with infected water.
This well was condemned.
12. Whitewash not much used in the
barns. The above criticisms do not
apply to most of the dairies. Some
were models of cleanliness; barn clean,
fresh and well ventilated, stanchions
properly kept and drained, milk house
clean as a good housekeeper's kitchen,
screens in nearly everywhere, and
cleanliness noticeable everywhere. The
fact that some dairies were models of
cleanliness convinced the inspector that
it was not necessary to have the faults
mentioned in any of them.

in Use.
A convenient rack for storing
screens of fan mills and such ma

in cut. It is made
of strips one inch
square, which are
solidly attached to the frames, which
are of one-inch stuff. Mark the screens
on the end and place upright in some
convenient location, where the wire
will not get wet and rust.
Skim Milk for Calves.
This is an exceedingly valuable feed
for growing calves. It must always be
fed sweet and must be as warm as the
mother's milk, about 98 degrees. Four
quarts fed twice a day is sufficient for
the first month. Add a teaspoonful of
oil meal to each feed. In addition to the
skim milk, let the calves have oais or
shorts and hay.
Care of Farm Separator.
Where the farm separator is used be
particular about running it at even
speed. Then as soon as the work is com
pleted, wash it out thoroughly so that
fermentation will not set in and it win
be in good condition to receive the next
milking. Running warm water through
the separator will assist in keeping it
in good condition.
Avoid Too Early Pasturage.
Keep the beef calves upon dry feed 1
for some time in the spring until the
grass gets large and sweet. It does not
pay to turn upon grass too early, a3
there is not much strength in early
grass.
