The first farmer was the first man, and
all historic) nobility rests on possession
anduse of land.
IN the selection of land for a dairy
farm some essential points must
be considered. 1f a choice of soil
is to be had a rich clay loans,
easily drained, is the roost preferable.
Rough, cheap land is often used to :ad.
vantage for pasture purposes, bot more
and more is intensive farming beeow•
ing popular, even to the extent or hav-
ing a cow to each aere of land.
There must be a plentiful supply of
good water all the year, and it should
be convenient.
Another necessary consideration is a
good market near at band or con-
venient transportation facilities. The
importance of good roads is no small
consideration.
To be a successful dairyman a znan
must first be a successful farmer. .E?!e

must understand soil conditions and
the growing of crops. In other words.
he must have a good farm well farm-
ed, as well as a good herd well cared
for.
Rundown Farms Made Profitable.
Every crop grown on the farm has a
'value as a fertilizer and when Sold per-
manently removes that amount of fer-
tilizing matter from the farm. Very
often an intelligent, industrious man
makes a profltnble investment by buy-
ing a rundown farm at a low figure
and stocking it with dairy cattle. By
returning the manure in good condi-
tion to the land he makes tile exhaust-
ed soil become rich and raise gond
crops in a few years.
A study of the following table ex-
plains wily poor. run -out firms are
built up by dairying. The figures show
the.amount of money received for the
products sold and the value of the fer-
tilizing constituents removed from the
farm, based on nitrogen being worth
12 cents per pound, phosphors acid

1 heard an old Sc•otchman, who Prov•
ed it true, say many times thea: were
only two things for which a fanner
should mortgage his farm -first, to
drain the land properly so as to raise
good crops, for prosperity cannot rise
from wet, cold soil-tbe land must be
drained; second, to build good barns in
which to house the stock and crops
These two conditions, rightly manag-
ed, will erect a fine home and make a
comfortable back account.
"Let There Be Light."
1 wish space permitted a lengthy dis
eussion on the construction of the cow
stable It does seem to me that the
health of the cows and the purity of
the milk depend greatly on the stable
Four things are of prime importance --
sunlight, pure air. tight, dry doors and
the comfort of the animals.
The first recorded utterance of God
is, "Let there be light," and further it
is stated, "(rod saw the light that it
was good." The Creator of alt things
knew that light was good. We know
It is good. Then why shut it out of
our cow stables? Did you ever see n
stable without a window? I bave seen
many.
Fifteen minutes of direct sunshine
bring death to most of the disease
germs. When we have such n power.
tut disinfectant free let us use it abun-
dantly. Piave plenty of windows in
the suable. Let the sunlight get di-
rectly in on ell Sides if possible. Many
have the windows hinged on the lower
side and have them open inward from
the top. This prevents a direct tlrleft
on the cows. Keep the windows free
from cobwebs and wash them off. oc-
casionally.
It is easier to regulate the light than
it is to ventilate properly. it we wish
animals to remain healthy they must
have pure air to breathe. This meaans
that the foul air from the lunge and
odors from food And excretions must
escape and be replaced by fresh salt'.
Thousands of animals are yearly be-
coming nffec'ted with tuberculosis. due
to insanitary cotadlitioes, Effective
ventilation ie of infinitely greater val•
tle than tuberculin, The first prevents
the disease; the other only reveals its
presence. 'There should be at least 500 -

the stable stirred and uniform. The
outlet flues or ventilators must extend
tq the top of the roof. Up to the pres.
ent time the Ring system 01 ventila-
tion or a modification of it Is perhaps
one of the best. Details of It may no
had from any agricultural, college
It is probably not advisable to al -
row the temperature of the stable to
fall much below 40 degrees in the
coldest weather, but in no rase should
a high temperature be maintained at
the expense of ventilation, if the alp
ot the stable is dry cattle can stand
quite a low temperature without dis-
comfort. Too warm• and badly venti-
lated quarters are largely responsible
for the prevalence ot tuberculosis. On
the other haand. a low enough tempera-
ture to rause the cows to chill will
quickly be shown to a decreased milk
flow, Cows exposed to extreme cold
require more grain food and give n
smaller yield of milk.
Cement Floor the Best,
The best floor 1S made of cement.
It is sanitary, durable and easily kept
clean. 1f bedding is scarce and the
floor very cold It Is advisable to have
a plank platform for the cows to tie
on, otherwise rheumatism may de-
velop. This wooden floor must be
taken up occasionally and the stalls
well cleaned. Many a valuable cow is
lost by allowing her to lie on a damp,
cold floor with probably a draft on her
hind quarters. lntlammation of the
udder is the result.
There are many contrivances for
fastening the cows in the stall. Do not
be cruel enough to have. the rigid stan-
chion. The ssvinging stanchion is be -
Ing installed in many stables and is
greatly liked. The upright iron bar
With the sliding ring and chain is, iu
t be opinion of tnany, the easiest and
best kind of tie. A later form of chain
tie which is an improvement on the
old style calls for a bar on each side
of the stall and a ring on each bar,
with a chain on each ring. These two
chains are joined in the center by a
ring to which is attached the chain
which goes around the cow's neck.
The bars are short and should bo
placed with their lower end about
eighteen inches from the floor. The
side chains should be slack enough so
that when not attached to the cow
the center will hang eight or ten inch-
es from the floor. This tie gives more
liberty than the stanchion and does not
interfere with the cow when rising.
The basement stable is losing favor,
as it is hard to build one and avoid
dampness and darkness --two enemies
to health.
The ideal Stable. - •
The ideal cow stable is one without
storage loft or cellar and where no
other animate are housed. Such a
building is expensive and involves
more labor in caring for the stock.
In building, n new stable every con-
trivance to save Tabor that can be af-
forded should be Installed. Spiend time
and money in visiting new barns and
studying plans. A. wise planning
means less hired help and more satis-
faction in doing the wort:. Have doors
and passages arranged to save steps.
A convenient way of bringing the
water into the stnble and watering the
eows, a wide feed passage. a good gut-
ter, mangers easy to keep clean. mod-
ern litter carriers, Manure shed with
cement floor, silo, feed bins and root
cellar handy are points to note.
A stable should be whitewashed in-
side at least every fall. The lime dis-
