M the feeding. of roughage this win-
ter, How may roughage be saved?
What are the substitutes, if Any ? It
has been shown that live stock may
be maintained 00 0 ration of 'colleen -
hate, This Is neither practical, econ-
omical., nor necessary, however. In
very brief form the situation may be
appro•aehed under the following head-
ings.
Care in feeding—Possibly in 75• per
cent. of our live stock farms, hay and
etraw have been overfed'. With the
mows full and hay cheap, our live
stock have been asked to obtain the
nutrieets necessary for their main-
tenance and. growth by handling large
quantities of crude fibre with a com-
paratively small percentage of nu-
trients. Under these paxticular condi-
tions they have conie through the win-
ter at least fairly well. With hay and
straw at a premium, however, the
questiee arises to what ,extent can
ronghage be cut out of the ration of
the horse or cow and substituted with
other feeds which are procurable. Very
few feeders have ever had occasion to
weigh tee hay whichthey are feeding
their live stock. The manger is filled
and the operation rerpeated. When it
is considered that the standard re-
commendation for the feeding of hay
to .h.orsee is at the rate ef le lb. to
every .100 lbs. of live weight, it will
be appreeiated thee meny hors•es have,
in the pest, eaten hay for their own
amusement only. When It is realized the past considerable quantities of the
that 8 or 9 lbs, of good clover hay most veluable part of the plant have
• and 4 or 5 lbs. of oat straw is. all been wasted in the form of chaff,
leaves, etc. These accumulate on the
barn floors and too often find their
way to the manure pile or barnyard
direct. They must, of course, reach
-the barnyard by way of the manger.
In general it is difficult to offer a
recommendati•on where stech a wide
variety of cases and conditions arise.
The male advice to be given, in con-
clusion, is after all extreme =enemy
in feeding hay and straw. Weights
end quentities are difficult matters to
not, however, be asked to' abeam them

percentage of nutrients contained in

or concentrates emp,pliect, stra.w forms
an excellent made fibee filler and in
order that the digestive and exeretory
organs may function properly, straw
may be made to take the place ol
much mere valuable roughage. It is
safe to say ethat there will be very
little bedding wasted this winter in
many parts of the East. Sawdust and
shavings areeavailable in many places.
There is no reason why considerable
bedding material might not be gather

The advisability of cutting hay and
straw and of mixed feeds—By increas-
Mg the labor el feeding in the outtin.g
of roughage and by mixing say cut
hay, cut straw, ana whatever meta is
being fed, there is little doubt that a
considerable saving of roughage may
be secured. Less energy is required
to inesticatee digest and assimilate
this cut feed, tend wheee it is mixed
the palatability is bettered or at least
averaged. Under normal feeding ame-
bic° the edvisabelity of eating rough-
age is doubtful in that the cow is fit-
ted by nature to do this work herself,
However, this winter the object is to
save roughage and the farmer who
has facilities for cutting the roughage
will find a result in mein. Gan the
feeding value of such a mixtuee be
further improved?
Molasses—A straight comparison of
molasses with .such feeds as bran, oats,
shorts, corn meal, etc., shows the fact
that molasses has a. comparatively low
feeding valve. It true that the
sugars are of considerable value from
their carbohydrate nature. However,
as a conditioner or as an agent to
render other feeds more palatable, and
on top of.this, with the very fair feed-
ing value in the feed itself, molasses
could be highly recommended to feed
either mixed with cut feeds, distri-
buted in the un.dilated form over hay
or straw, or diluted with evater and
sprinkled by the use of a watering eon
over the feed in the mangers, It is a
wonderful relish and the use of cent-
paratively small quantities of it is
easily seen in the better condition of
cattle. Apparently the feeding grades
of molasses will be fairly readily pro-
curable, paiticulerly in the Maritime
Provinces. Prices will be very con-
siderably lower than have applied

Robber,- Bees.

ehould In all hes -work carefully avoid
doing anything that will excete rob-
bing, for robber -bees are constapt
annoyance and, clanger in the apiary-.
Bees that heve nething else to do in
warm weather will readily yield to any
temptation to obtain honey in this
way. After more or less fighting they
will overpower any very weak colon-
ies, especMay these that have lost
their queen, and will carry the honey
to their own hives. Robbing is fre-
quently started, by the .camlessness of
the bee -keeper dining manipulation,
especially when removing the honey.
In dealing with this subject in I3e1-
letin No. 26, Second Series, available
at the Publication§ Branch of the De-
partment of .Agriculture, Ottawa, the
Dominion Apiarist points out that to
prevent robbing, no colony should be
Meowed to grow weak and no honey
or syrup should 'be eel:weed in the
apiary. I± robbing has begun, the at-
tacked colonies should have a bunch
of wet gram or weede thrown over the
entrance. Hives 'should: be opened as
little as possible, aeul teen only dur-
ing the 'hour before sunset, or early in
the lemming, or under a net tent. It
is adviseble, after the honey flow is
ended, to 'contract the entrances of all
hives. One can tell if a colony is be-
ing robbed by seeing the robbers enter
hurriedly with the abdomen contract-
ed and leave with the addomen dis-
tended, flying straight home.
A. neighborhood without a commun-
ity house is like a family without a

Making the Old Farm Well Do New Tricks
No . more wading through snow -
choked paths on a freezing January,
skeeter the farmer, loaded down with
immense pails of water fee the barn-
yard drinking trough! No mem
carrying of water from the old pump
on "blue Monday" for the farmer's
wife! The modern farmer revolts
against being civilization's drudge,
and one of the oustanding signs of his
revolt is his determination to have an
up-to-date water system on his farm.
Heretofore, the storage tank has
found favor in various quarters as a
successor to the old-fashion'ed, bacic-
breaking, pump -and -pail method..
Users of the storage tenet, however,
find that its water supply is not fresh,
but stale and brackish and at times
contaminated with deposits of slune
and rust.
One of the best systems available
for farm use to -day discards the stor-
age tank altogether and substitutes an
air tank and an an' -operated pump
submerged in the well. The other es-
sentials of the equipment are an am -
compressor, an air -trap, and an engine
or motor to supply the power. The
first advantage of this system eppears
in the proems of installing it; the
engine, air tank and connecting ap-
paratus mity be located in any con-
venient place about 'the farm build-
ings, and the owner is saved the ex-
pense of bending a pump house .or
digging a pit in which to bury a tank,
