SPRING CALF FEEDING
How to Peed and - Handle the
Young Arrival.
The Dam's Milk the Best First Food
-- SkimmIlk Should Gradually
Replace Whole Milk -- Grass er
Stable .tor Calves? -
(Contributed, by Ontario -Department of
Agriculture. Toronto.)
HE calf that comes in the
spring, comes just at a time,
when everybody is •o busy
getting the spring work
done that he is very liable to be neg-
lected to a certain extent. = young
calves are ivory susceptible to disease
cam- on to young cattle and a tittle
lack of attention to spring calves is
liable to cause serious trouble to
them.
There are two menaces to calves
in spring and summer, and those are
extreme heat and flies, and one is on
a par with the other. Arrangements
should be made whereby the. ;Alves
are kept fn - during the • day and al-
lowed to run out in a paddock at
night. By this.. means they are
afforded a liberal amount of exercise
and good pure fresh air, and also
they are allowed to get some of the-
nice
henice juicy green grass,. which is the
nearest thing to a complete and bal-
anced ration that can be found out-
side Of milk. • Q -
When the - calf is dropped it may
be well to leave it with the dam for-
a few hours in order that it may get
the first- milk (or colostrum) which
is so necessary on account of its ac-
tions on the digestive tract. When
the calf has received sufficient colo-
strum to set up the necessary action
it should be removed from its mother
into a separate stall, or it may be put
into a stall with other calves of the
same age or nearly so. If, by any
chance, the cow's udder is inflamed,
the calf may be left for a few" days,
because of the -beneficial effect that
the calf's punching has upon it.
For a few days the calf should be
fed whole milk, but when it is two
to four weeks old a change should be
made; skimmilk gradually replacing
the whole milk, from eight to ten
days taken for the ch•'ge. When
the whole milk is totally •laced the
milk may be increased o eighteen
or twenty pounds per da. . r a calf
six weeks old. The best kind of
ekimmilk for calves is warm, just
when it leaves the farm separator.
However, everybody may not have a
separator, and then this is not pos-
. Bible. In any event the system start-
ed with the calf should be followed
as nearly as possible -at all times,
because radical changes in diet are
sure to cause severe digestive .trou-
bles. Pails and all feeding utensils
should be kept very clean to elim-
inate any danger of disease from
bacteria, that might be lurking with-
in. flkinimilk feeding may be contin-
ued on as long as it is thought ad-
visaabye, up to eight or ten months
ole. Good thrifty calves may be
.weaned as early as three months old,
providing good substitutes for the
milk are used,
The most frequent itrouble in rais-
ing calves is indigestion or common
scours. This trouble is usually'caus-
ed by overfeeding, feeding milk too
cold, feeding milk heavily laden with
the disease germs, or by keeping the
calves in a dark, dirty, poorly ven-
tilated quarter. The calves should be
watched carefully, and if they show
signs of scours immediate steps
should be taken to effect a cure. The
ration should be reduced and a little
lime water put into the milk. If
immediate action Is needed, about
one-half cupful of strong black tea
or some castor oil should be given.
As for meal for the calves, rolled
oats are good, and if they are getting
no whole milk a little linseed oil
cake should be added. The oil cake
has a laxative property as well as
supplying a little fat to the ration.
A good meal for calves: 100 lbs. of
ground oats, 50 lbs. bran and oil
cake (nutted) 25 lbs.. Good clover
hay is essential at all times, giving
enough to allow the calves to pick
out the nice succulent parts, arid still
not be wasteful.-- J. C; McBeath,
0. A. College, Guelph.
Should Calves Go Out to Grass or
Remain in the Stable?
Generally speaking, calves are bet-
ter kept in the stable during the
first summer, except where stable
conditions are not good, and where
there is not enough labor to look af-
ter them and keep them dry and
clew. The only other exception is
in tie case of calves dropped in the
earl winter and which- have had
three to six months of milk and more "
or less dry feed. Such calves may
be all right, if turned out to grass
as soon as the pasture is good and
the weather warm and pleasant. Par-
ticularly is this the case where milk
and other feed is scarce on the .farm.
The chief advantages of keeping
calves in the stable, the first summer
are:
1. They can be fed milk and other
feed as required, which is often neg-
lected when calves run with the cows,
or are pasturing some distance from
the barn.
2. - Calves in a clean, well -ventilat-
ed stable are protected from the hot
sun, storms and flies, which often
prevent that good growth which is
essential for a well-nourished thrifty
calf. .
3. If allowed to run with the herd,
the older animals are likely to
"boos" the calves and may injure
them, or deprive them of their proper -
share of feed.
+4. Cases of sickness, such as indi-
gestion or "scours" are more likely
to be noticed, and properly treated,
if the calves are inside where they
are seen frequently.
S. Aa a result of this better care
and feed, better cows are more likely
-to be reared, which means larger
returnsto the ownersof cows. --Prof,

REST 'CIGARS DUE FOR
ANOTHER ADVANCE
'Tis sad ` news for cigar -smoker's
that is spilled by Frederick J. Has -
kin, the well known American cor-
respondent, after a visit to the fac-
tories in Cuba. He says that prices
are going up, and if precedent is
followed this means also that quali-
ties are going down. The only
difference i s that the process
may be reversed, for it is custom-
ary first for the quality to decline.
The reason, of course, is the same
as the reason for all other ad "
vances, primarily the increased cost
of labor and raw materials. In - the
case of the good Havana cigars the
chief raw material is tobacco, and
leaf tobacco is advancing. The
planters are getting from fifty per
cent. to 100 per cent. more for their
leaf than before the war, while the
wages of the cigar -makers have in-
creased about fifty per cent. in the
past two years. A good cigar -maker
must be 'a man of skill and- exper-
ience. He cai;not be improvised in a
couple -of months. According to our
standards these wages do not seem
so formidable, since the best of the-
Cuban niakers get only $7 a day,
while others -get as little as $`3,.with
less ski}led labor receiving even'
smaller pay i owever, money is.
worth a good deal more in Cuba
than it is here—to the. Cubans.
Nor is it possible to cope with in-
creasing prices by greater produc-
tion. It is a curious fact that the
tobacco for the superfine Havana
cigars can be grown in jest one par-
ticular district of Cuba, and that is.
the Vuelta Abajo district. Tobbaco
ban be grown in practically`. all parts
of the Island and in most parts - of
the temperate and tropical zones,
but here and there are particular
spots where a particular kind of
leaf or flavored plant can - be pro-
duced. There are parts of Virginia,
of Carolina, of the" Connecticut Va-
ley, of Egypt, of Ontario and Quebec
that have some mysterious quality
in the soil or dtmosphere that gives
to the tobacco grown a particular
quality. In, all the world there ap-
pears to be no other- place like the
Vuelta Abajo. And the soil there
is cultivated to the limit. Unless
'similar `districts are discovered in
other . parts of the world -it seems
certain that there will never be any
increase in the - amount of real Ha-
vana cigars. Since the demand is
outrunning the supply, there - is an-
other reason for advancing prices.
- Mr. Raskin is of opinion that
there never has ;been any product of
any - one place so widely distributed
as the tobacco, grown in the Vuelta
Abajo district, although one may sa-
gaciate that Burton -on Trent and
Rheims might file a protest. The
Havana cigars go all over the world.
It is an impressive thing, he sage,
to go through a shipping room in
one of the great factories and see
the packing cases consigned to - Asia,
Africa, Europe and Australia. The
cigars go out in great wooden pack-
ing
acking cases, ingeniously sealed with
steel wires. The cigars are almost
as good as currency in all parts of
the civilized world, and properly
kept -will never deteriorate. Indeed,
stocks of Havana cigars -are often
mentioned in wills and sometimes
pass through the hands of several
generations. There are stock sizes
and standitrd brands, familiar to
all smokers, but more interesting
are the special cigars made for the
connoisseurs to . whom money is no
object. 'The late J. P. Morgan was
a great cigar smoker, and _naturally
he had the best that was to be
boughf. The /Morgan cigars were
about -ten inches long and cost in
the factory a dollar apiece. When
shipped to New York, where they
arrived each one in a separate box,
the cost would be about $3. A spe-
cial 'cigar was also made for the ex -
Kaiser, not so large or costly, and
also for the Prince of Wales, who
smokes pipe, cigar and cigarette
with equal pleasure.
The most expensive cigar now
made'\is more than a foot long and
weighs -nearly twice as much as the
Morgan ',cigar. Few of these giant
cigars can be produced because it is
only a rare leaf that is big enough to
make the wrapper. Inspectors are
constantly on the ' watch for these
special leaves. When the cigars are
finished they are shipped to a single
dealer in Egypt, who pays a dollar
each for them at the factory. It is
probable that they retail for $5.00
apiece, but who is the smoker has
not been disclosed. They are sold
in lots of a thousand, and if there
is a single purchaser he must smoke
several a day, -judging by the fre-
quency of the orders. The factory that
turns out some of the most expensive
cigars in the world has an unpleasant
experience a few years ago. A valu-
ed customer, an Austrian of exalted
rank, wrote saying in effect that his
rank was not to be compared with
the rankness of a cigar in the last
shipment. An examination showed
that he had been smoking a piece of
rubber which in some horrible man-
ner had got into the cigar. It turn-
ed out to be only the harmless, neces-
sary rubber band which is used to
hold the filler together until the
wrapper is applied. .
Production of Havana cigars is fre-
quently hampered - by strikes which
are numerous, although judged by
Cuban standards, the cigar makers
are the very aristocracy . of labor.
They have many privileges. For in-
stance, in these factories one may see
a hundred men at work, while perch-
ed above them in a sort of pulpit is
an entertainer who reads aloudthe
papers or a chosen book or play. They
smoke all they require. The man
who makes the Prince of Wales'
cigars smokes the Prince of Wales'
cigars, and maybe his friends smoke
them too. Nevertheless, the cost of
living has hit them, and it is said
that in Havana the advance has been
150 per cent. in the past three or
four years. The island has enjoyed
tremendous prosperity, chiefly due
to 'the tremendous demand for sugar,
which, with tobacco, forms the chief
Product of Cuba. Indeed thousands

The Feeding Device •Is the Heart of

Agriculture, Toronto.)
5 the drill sows, so shall the
farmer reap, is no fallacy. It
is as true in its content as
the maxim "As a man sows
SO shall he reap." Given the right
(rind of a grain drill, the seed is all
planted at a uniform depth, evenly
covered; the earth compacted just
enough to retain the moisture around
it. These conditions mean that the
young plants will all come up. at the
same time, that the roots will be
well protected, and that the gm=airi-
will ripen uniformly. As the grain
is planted, so will it grow and ripen.
If some of the seed is planted too
shallow, and some too deep, the seed
that comes up first, ripens first. Thus
it is that some of the grain is ready
to harvest while other patches are
still in the milk stage.
The feeding device is the heart of
the grain drill. Upon its reliability
depends the accuracy of sowing the
seed. The drill scale is computed for
theaverage sized seeds, and there-
fore *dannot always be depended upon
when the size 'of them varies from,
the normal. If the grain. is oversized
or undersized the required amount
per acre may be sown by setting the
feed lever at a point slightly greater
or slightly less than shown on the
\indicator. There are, in common use,
two different forms of feeding de -
The fluted -cylinder -force
feed, and the double -run -force feed.
The amount of seed sown by the Rut-
ed-cylinder-force
ut
ed -c linder-fo
y ice feed may be regu-
lated by a lever which changes the
size of the outlet, but it does not al-
ways -handle all classes of seed with-
out breaking them, as can be done
with the double -run -force feed, which
necessarily requires for driving it a
disc wheel; or -a cog wheel with' from
nine to fifteen sets of cogs that make
as many speeds or feeds.
In the most efficient type of grain.
drills the seed should be deposited
as nearly directly under the axle et
the disc as possible, as this is the
only place where the seed can. be
dropped directly on to the bottom of
the trench without hindrance. By
thin method the disc is not run deeper
than the seed is deposited, thus the
draft is reduced to a minimum. It
the seed is deposited in the rear of
the centre of the axle, the rotation
of-the'disc tends=to carry earth and
seed up with it, causing the seed to
be une'renly deposited, in operation,
a properly angled disc opens a trench
about two inches wide. The falling
seed strikes the concave side of the
shield and the convex side of the
disc, and is thus scattered evenly over
the entire width of the trench.
Grain seed drills are divided into
four kinds, according to the type of
furrow -opener--- the open delivery
single disc- and the closed delivery
single disc, the double disc, the shoe,
and the hoe drills. The open delivery
single -disc furrow opener deposits
the seed between the shield and the
convex side of the disc. The spars is
open from the end of theboot between
the dise and shield to the bottom or
lower end of the shield._ The shield
prevents the falling se td from becom-
ing mixed with the lose earth and
surface trash and insures its free pas-
sage to the bottom of the trench made
by the disc. - It will also do excellent
work in highly cultivated soil that in
free from trash.
The closed delivery single disc fur-
row opener has a closed boot, similar
to a hoe furrow opener, which comes
down at the rear edge of the disc and
deposits the seed about two inches
back of the disc. It does -not plant
the seed at as even a depth as either
the open delivery single disc of the
double disc, bist deposits it at least
eight inches in rear of the disc hub,
and wherever it meets with an
obstruction, rock or hard frozen soil
the disc rises up and carries the boot
with it, broadcasting the seed on
the surface.
There are many styles of double
discs, but the one that plants the
seed under or slightly back of the
disc' axle, or hub, Is the one to use,
for that point is the dgepest part
of the furrow. The furrow opener
that shoots the grain forward of thus
centre is to be avoided, for the rea-
son that the seed reaches the ground
before the furrow is fully : formed,
and it is, therefore, mixed with the
"soil as the seed trench is being made,
causing what is termed "wavy" sow-
ing. The double disc type of opener
tends to spread out the - seed more
than other kinds, so that each seed
has a somewhat greater area from -
which to draw moisture.
The hoe furrow opener or
shovel opener does not penetrate the
ground readily and clogs easier than
any of the other types. The shoe
opener does no better work, and rath-
er than clog will run over trash and
thus plant the seed at varying depths.
In selecting a drill the bearings
should be given - careful inspection.
They should be dust proof. The hard
oiler must be considered superior to
all others for this kind of work, as
the oil can. be forced into the bear-
ing from the centre, and as it works
out it carries all the dirt with it. It
should' have a well -braced seed box
with steel hopper bottom. to allow the
seed to pass freely into the cups;
strongframe and substantial whale
are important featured. The distant*
between, the furrow opener varies to
some extent, but, six inches is the
usual. spacing. The seed tubes .mmeay
be of rubber or of steel ribbon. The
rubber tubes give good satisfaction.,
but are not durable': if exposed to the
weather. The steel ribbon tubes serve
the purpose well, and it painted will
last as long as the drill.--Jno. Bros,

Des int€Your Years
Many a man, even in his middle
forties, has a' vague feeling that he
is "getting old" --and right at a time
when he should be at his very best
physically.
And he is 'growing old, not in the
sense that the years are pressing
heavily upon diim—but in the sense
that his vital forces are wasting
away faster than Nature replaces
the worn out tissues.
Thousands -yes millions --of pea-
pie find themselves in this etendition
early in life. And there is no ex-
cuse for it. • You can check that
tendency to grow old. You- can car-
ry your youth with its joys and en-
thusiasm into your 70's and 80's.
But you must give nature all the help
you can. The best assistance you
can find—assistance of a sound, con-
'structive character is in the use of
Phosphonol
THE GREAT GENERAL TONIC
It brings back your pep, punch -and
mental vigor—chases away that tir-
ed, worn-out feeling and replaces it
with a spirit of buoyancy,
Phosphonol is a distinctive prepa-
ration, scientifically correct in its
combination of medicinal - ingredi-
ents, and there's nothing more in-
vigorating, more strengthening or
more rebuilding. Specially benefic-
ial for invalids, convalescents and
run-down people of all conditions.
