Frees Ii, the Pasture a Boon -Soule Cows Drink 20 Gallons of Water a Day at High Milk Flow Fly Remedies --Lice on Hogs. (Contributed by Ontario Department el Agriculture. Toronto-) During the extremely hot weather, cows and calves frequently suffer, sometimes needlessly, from three things -effects of high temperature. lack of water, and from torment by flies. A great mistake was made in the older parts of Ontario when practi- cally all the trees were cut down, thus leaving no shade for cattle and other live stock. This is being reme- died to some extent by the planting of trees along roadsides, lanes, and line fences where the trees will not interfere with the crops. But it takes a long time for trees to grow into a size which will provide much shade. When the late Prof. Brown was in charge of the 0 A. College farm and live stock, he planted small groves of trees on various pacts of the College farm, and no more pleasant sight may be seen than that of the College herd lying in the shade among these trees on a hot day. These groves make the fields where located rather awkward to work, but the cattle cer- tainly enjoy themselves among the trees. On a live stock and dairy farm, while it may not be advisable to plant trees in the middle of a field, It cer- tainly will pay to have them in as many places as possible, where they do not interfere with the working of the land. They, of course, must be protected when young, from injury by the stock, but this can be done without too much expense. In the meantime, on dairy farms where no shade is available in the regular pasture field, sometimes a wood -lot can be utilized for the stock during the heat of the day, though ___ they may damage the young trees to some extent. Another plan is to keep the cattle in a darkened stable C. P. B. TIME TABLE for part of the day. This means a good deal of extra labor cleaning the stable, and keeping the cows clean, and under present labor conditions may not be practicable on many farms. However, where there is the necessary labor available and parti- cularly where cows are receiving soil- ing or silage feed to supplement the pasture, the feeding in the stable may well take place during the day, and the cows be kept inside while It is very hot. This plan also reduces worry from flies, where the windows are covered to make the stable dark. Cows frequently suffer from lack of sufficient water. As a boy, the writer remembers driving cattle to "Big Crick" in Brant County during dry spells. The cows were nearly famished when they reached the rick" and would drink until they oked like bursting. But, by the time they reached home, after walk- ing for a mile -and -a -half over a dusty road, the cattle were nearly as thirsty as ever. The only safe source of a sure water supply is a deep well, driven or bored, and having the water pumped by windmill or other sources GUELPH & GODERICH BRANCH TO TORONTO e.m- p.m. Goderich, leave 6.20 1.80 Blyth 6.58 2.07 Walton 7.12 220 Guelph 9.48 4.53 Alen.

INI' SEAFORTH BY Z UMBA CH, Plum, B. Ontario in which an abundance of water cannot be obtained, if we go deep enough to tap the hidden sources of supply. Ili souse districts, more particularly in the natural gas regions, the water may be salt or sulphur, in which cases, large tanks or cisterns for storing rainwater' may be necessary, but this is unusual, No matter how it is obtained, the owner of dairy stock, more especially of cows milking, must supply a large amount of water, else the stock will suffer, which means Jessened milk supply, and small cheques from the creamery, cheesery, condensery, of city dealer. Milk consists of about 87'/2 per cent. water, and this water must come from the drink and feed of the cow. A cow giving 100 lbs. (10 gallons) of milk dairy, will drink over 290lbs. (20 gallons) of water in a day. Cows giving less milk will drink in proportion. Give the cows plenty of water. Young cattle, calves, and hogs, also'need plenty of clean water in hot weather. There are several good fly reme• dies on the market. Where there is not time to make one, the purchase of a patent fly -killer or repellent, is advisable. These are usually applied daily, or twice a day with a small hand sprayer. The expense is not great and the freedom from worry by both cow and milker is worth the money. A home-made remedy may consist of one-half gallon fish oil, or any old grease, one-half pint coal oil, and four tablespoonfuls of crude carbolic acid, cresol, etc. Mix thoroughly. This will be sufficient for twety-five cows and may be applied with a brush or cloth. If there is no rain It will keep the flies off for several days. Milkers must be careful not to get this on the hands, nor allow hairs to drop into the milk pall, as it will taint the milk. It Is safer to apply after milking, -H. H. Dean, O. A. College, Guelph.

Two lots of hogs of ten each as nearly equal as to the quality of the animals as possible were used in the tests. The two iota were man- aged and fed in the same way except that one lot was treated for the pre- vention of lice. In the other the lice were allowed to have their way. At the end of the fattening period It was found that the hogs Infested with lice cost a cent a pound more to fatten than those which were pot, Children Cry FOR FLEIVNEA's CASTOR IA !RED AY AND NIGHT The Tortures of Dyspepsia Relieved By "Fruit-a-tives" • Lrrrta Baas D'oa, O.

Farmers will find it profitable to keep a few guinea fowl on the prem- ises if they have a little time to de- vote to their care, . A nice sized flock consists of a dozen hens and three male birds from which can be raised, each season, between 50 and 100 young. It does not pay to keep guinea hens after they are three years of age, as laying drops off con- ) sideralbly. Each guinea hen will lay 90 to 100 eggs a season, beginning in April or early in May. These eggs will not sell so readily in markets, but they are just as good to use on your own table as the chicken egg, and this will leave all your hen eggs to go to market. The guinea hen is fed more cheaply than the chicken, so that its eggs cost less and are no less nour- ishing. The young stock find a ready sale, especially in a city. They can be readily sold to clubs, hotels, cafes and fashionable restaurants at excel- , lent prices. Most folks are more successful with chic -ken mothers for hatching and raising the brood than 'With the guises mothers. It takes 28 days for guinea eggs to hatch, and the youngsters require very careful at - I tention during the first ten days. Dampness and chilling are fatal, and it is best to let them out during the middle of the day only, with the moth- er hen confined, until they are two weeks old. Feed them as you would little chickens, starting them on pin- head oatmeal and gradually changing to a commercial chick feed or any cracked grain mixture. The next critical time for guineas is when they are changing their early feathers of a brownish hew to the Quaker grey of the adult bird. It is advisable to feed and look after them during this period, but from this time they need little attention, as they will seek their own living an range, where they destroy innum- erable bugs and insects in the fields and gardens, and they do not scratch as a chicken does.
