That and endometritis commonly eause

volved and are in a diseased state, so
that periodi a heat fail to appear,
or are irregular or constent.
Modern scientific treatment deals
'with the germ enemies at their source.
Special instruments (forceps) have
been devised by which the veterinar-
ian brings the mouth of the womb
sight where the condition of its
mouth and neck may be observed.
Treatment then is given according to,
the condition seen to be present. It
may be necessary to :sivab the mouth
with full strength Lugol's solution;
then open the neck, dilate it and treat
irt the same way as the mouth -and
then treat the womb. This is done by
means of special return flow eathetene
of metal, through which a mild', hike-,
warm antiseptic solution is introduced
al a douche to flush out the womb,
and then is removed by siphoning. If
mus is found eresent that is flushed
out by means of an antisepele solu-
tion and rubber catheter or tube. If
care Is, eve taken the wall of the
womb is readily =neared, and that
will be likely to result in fatal periton-
itis, or septic inflammaeion of the
membrane lining the abdominal cav-
ity. In some Metalline a mummified
fetus is found in the womb and has
to be removed. In all oases succeisive
treatments have to be given until the
womb is restored to a healthy condi-
tion. The cow may then conceive
when bred. That will depend,- how-
ever, upon ho* serious has been the
infection and inflammation of the
membranes lining the womb.
The ovaries are tre;ted„at the same
time. This is done by way of the
rectum. Cysts or sacs containing
fluid are raptured, and it may -be
necessary to remove a nersistent
"yellow body," known as a corpus
lubeum. That body forms from the
clot of blood in the wound caused by
rupture of a ripe Graafian follicle
when an egg or ovum escapes when
the animal is in heat. In a heelthy
state of the ovary the yellow body
disappears in about twenty days after
the period of heat, provided the cow
has not been bred and conceived.
When conception takes place the yel-
low body persists throughout preg-
nancy. Sometimes it persists when
conception has not taken place and
sterility 'results. Simple removal of
the yellow body may then bring about
a period of heat.
Only a e,pecially trained veterinar-
ian is qualified to do such work. A
bungler may do far more harm than
geed. -A. S. Alexander, Veterinary
Surgeon.
On most farms skim -milk and in -
net life make up the bulk of animal
protein available for poultry rations.
It is, however, one of the most essen-
tial elements of the ration, and if
satisfactory resulbs from other feeds
are obtained it must be supplied in
reasonable amounts. As a Tule beef
scraps and ground bone furnish the
cheapest animal protein. Grit, shell
and some of the ground grains must
be purchased, unless one has the
facieities for grinding the h.ome-grown
grajne. e,But ',Men When it 'is noes -
eery to buy some of these special pro-
tein feeds the bulk of the ration may
wen tonsisteof home-grown Meade. The
saving in the cost of feeding will more
than offset any. lack of efficiency in
the ration, and the biedmwill be more
healthy and vigorous th,an is the case
'when fed only mixed and prepared
feeds. If birds have free range surpris-
ing results are °Mien obtained from
very ordinary rations, During the
season when insect life is unusually
plentiful, there is searcely a method
of feeding, unless it is extremely ab-
normal, that will produce an good egg
production or maintain as good growth
of the young stock. ,
After experimenting for several
years with different crops the Writer
found corn and alfalfa the two most
valuable home-grown poultry feeds.
With these two feeds as a foundation
the ration may easily be varied to
meet the requirements of the flock and
the market prices of other feeds. Good
alfalfa servee as an excellent substi-
tute for expensive grain feeds, and it
can be cut end cured for less than
on -half what the cost of the grain
needed to take ete plan in the ration
would amount to. Where alfalfa does
not make a good stand, red or aleike
clover may be used to good advantage.
Alfalfa cut before it is in the woody
=age and properly cured will come
out of the mow as green aa any gr -ass
you ever saw. It eontains very little
indigestible fibre and its greatly rel-
ished by the hens.- It is the second
and third cutting that furnish the
fine -stemmed, fine leaves that give
such delicious mashes for the hens.

It is very important that the farm
name be distinctive, and that it fit
the farm. There are many ways of
christening a farm. Perhaps the most
common is bo select same outstanding
feature as "Mildest," "Valley View,"
"Meadow Brook," etc. Others are
n‘amed for the kind of trees which sur-
round the farmstead, such as "Oak
Grove," "Maple Dell," "Pine Ridge,"
and so on. Another favorite farm
ofname is derived from a combination
of the old English words "hunt" and
f`croft," whieh mean homestead. This

that suited me. Most of them hrea,k
off in time, and,the whole job has to
be done again.
'Building a fence more than on
goes against the grain with me, The
idea of building a barn or eorncrib
every ten years wouedn't strike any of
tie very web. Yet we continue to use
the kind of fence Posts that need to
be replaced every few years. I intend
to have my poultry fencing permanent.
So I haveebeen -looking into this post
Waite= pretty thovoteghly. I find
that the, corner „posts are extremely
imporbant. I have four ef these, The
pipes are 7 feet long .and Mee inches
in diameter. The braces are supporta
from a dismantled street -car line. The
braces an,d poste cost 40 -cents each,
making the Pipee for one corner cost
$1.20. Two bolts are needed, which
adds a dime. I got this stuff at a
local junk yard. An acetylene blaw
torch -heated the -pipe so we could bend
and flatten the end of the brace pipes.
This torch also burned the holes
through the posts and braces.
A hole was dug about I.§ inches
too.

A Farm Workshop

mixed in too, to provide reinforcing
and to keep the cement from 'cracking.
The east of the 'cement was about 50
cents. It took about otie and: a half
hours to set each post.
I set these posts with 4 plumb level,
and leaned them a half inch away
from the pan of the fence, ;but I think
that was unnecesentry. The ends of
the braces are set in a block of nment
and stones about 18 inchea square.
This block slants With the brace. A
double wire of No. 9 size was usecl to

ed on these posts now, rued I think
they 'an solid enough to hold four
fences.
I smoothed off the cement around
the posts end over the end of the
braces, so it would shed evater. I think
'I've got a see of posts that will stay.

The Welfare of the Home
Habit Fointation.
Mothers ate ofeen. 'heard to eity, "Me
children have such tmeidy habits, and
I don't seem to be able' to break them.
I talk all nay long, btit it doesn't ito
any good."
No mother needs to endure her
children's untidy habits, Or any other
undesirable.habits, if Mee goes about
training in the right way, and is will-
ing to take a little trouble to carry it
out. Four simple rules based on
psychology, may aerve to give such
mothers an insight into the means of
_forming right habits. If carried out
faithfully; these rules cannot fail to
or. yourself what habit

you wish to form. Then start enthusi-
astic,aly and determinedly to break
the old and launch the new one. . Say
to your children, "Beginning to -day,
we Etre all going to hang up our wraps,
and put our books and rubbers in the
proper places when we come honte
from sehool. Let's iee who remembers
every time, and doesn't have to leave
Mother tell her once about it," Aroun
as much enthusiasm as you can about
the matter. Be careful that you do
net start to break and form anew too
many habits at one time. Select one
or two habits to work on, and keep at
them until you are reasonably sure
that they are well fixed. Then start
onaotlemit no exceptions to oc-
eicioy,rp

.-cur after you have ence started. No
matter how good the intentions of the
children are, they will lapse into the
old ways after a fete days. That is
when you will have to work. You will
find that eternal vigilance on your
part will be the price of your chil-
dren's good habits. When Mary 0e1323
home in a hurry to go out to play, she
will throw her books on the nearest
chair: Don't say, "Oh, well, she is
little, and it is hard to remember all
the time, 211 bat it go this time."
That is where you will fail, Even
though Mary has already gono away
to play, she should be called hack im-
mediately anti- told in a kind manner,
"You forgot your books to -day. Put
themaway, and then you may go to
play." One or.two experiences of that
kind will soon make Mary more care-
ful.
Third, repeat ,the desirable action att
oftenaa- possible. We all kno.w that
the habit is most firmly fixed which
we heve been practicing longest. Seize
every occasion to perforin t'ne act
which you wish to become a habit,
and its acquisition will come all the
• sooner.
Last' of all, act, don't Wk. As Pro.
tosser James eays, in his Talks to
Teachers, "Don't preach too math or
ebound in good talk in the abstract."
When Mary ehrows her net on the
floor and, 1351 rubbers in the middle of
the hall, don't tell her that nice little
girls don't do these things, 01' that
she is a careless girl and should kru:
better, and a great deal more to that
effect. Simply call her 111 aeon 23 you
discover what she has done, and tell
her quietly anEl good-naturedly to put
her things away immediately, and
then see that she does it. Such treat-
ment as this is far more effeetlie
than mere talking.
