Cows Producing only a moderato flOW of milk need very little if any grain when pasture is abundant, says Hoard's Dairyman. There are times when it is well to feed some grain i with pasture grass, but, as a rule, we believe it is good practice to let cows • have a rest from grain for at least two or three months each year. It will be found that cows grazing on good pasture will relish a small allow- ance of some good hay, preferably clo- ver or alfalfa. If grain is fed we Would be Inclined to omit cottonseed meal and use corn • chop and, if possible, with some other l& feed Eke ground oats or bran. Cotton- rr'sieed meal is very rich in protein, and cows on good pasture do .not need this kind of feed as much as they do feed rich in carbohydrates, like corn. It would not be seriously objectionable to feed a little cottonseed meal if oth- er feeds were hard to get or were more expensive. Told Her Nothing. "What kind of a man did Belie marry?"

Removing the horns of cows lessens the danger of injury and increases the production of milk. In an experiment with ten cows at the Kansas Agricul- tural college it was found that for the first five 'days after dehorning the cows lost an average of one-half pound of milk a day. At the end of the fifth day they began to return to their nor- mal flow, and in a few days eight of them were giving a substantial in, crease. The greatest gain was with the cows that had been hooked and driven away from their feed previous to the dehorning. The two that did not increase in production were the "boss" cows of the herd. -Kansas Farmer. Using the Clippers. The clipping of horses and mules in the spring is generally conceded to be beneficial. The clipped animals not only appear better and are easier clean- ed, but they dry off quickly at night, get good rest and are more vigorous and thrifty. Dairymen now regularly clip the flanks and :udders of cows 'ev- ery three or four weeks. It is easy to wipe off the parts then before milk - Mg and insures clean, uncontaminated 4.0044',0000010004440•0004•00 0."'..0000009000.04004.0•00000.00 • litheTimes • • • • • Clubbing List' • • • • • • 111111=1111111111111111 • • • • • Times and Saturday Globe ye: Times and Daily Globe • • Times and 'Family Herald and Weekly Star.... • 4 Times and Toronto Weekly Sun • Times and Toronto Daily Star4. • • Times and Toronto Daily News. ...... 4 • Times and Daily Mail and Empire. • Times and Weekly Mail and Empire...... • • • • • 4. • • • 4.4.• 4 • 4.• • • 4. 4. .4. 0 • 4. • 4. 4.• 4. • • • • • • • • 1.90 3.75 1.85 1,70 2 30 2.30 4.50 1.60 2.85 1,60 1.80 1.60 2.85 1.60 • 4. • • e 4. 40 4. 4. 4. 4.• o • • • • • • • • • • • • • 4.• • • • 04) O. 40* • • • • 4.• • These prices are for addresses in Canada or, Great: :Britain. • • 4. • The above publications may be obtained by Times: :subscribers in any combination, the price for any publica- tion being the figure given above less $1.00 representing: •the price of The Times.

Remember, you are about to build a big fowl with large frame, muscles, much blood, big organs and heavy plumage. Then the turkey, too, is semiwild. It comes from a race that lived in the woods mainly on natural protein, and its digestive organs are especially fit- ted to digest just such food. Yon must feed builder. You most follow Mother Turkey's advice, Feed little, but often. You should not feed for at least tbirty hours after hatch, nor never as muob as turks want, even though they do, squeal and chase you all over the place. You simply feed the little birds long enough to get started right and then let Mother Turkey do most of the rest until fattening time.

AN AMERICAN'S PLAIN TALK. (Manitoba Free Press.) Reports of brutal treatment of tour- sist and strangers, who found themselves in Germany upon the outbreak of war, by the German militarists are so numer- ous and circumstantial that they need 1not be doubted. John Jay Chapman, a well-known United States writer, after his German experiences, wrote to the London Times in these terms: "The Americans who have come from Germany in the past few days are the only people in England who have already experienced with awe the striking brutality of actual war. Deprived of their property, shovelled upon trains, piled one upon the other, they lay through the night while halts were made to allow soldiers to walk over them. "The hand of ruthless force, which regarded neither God nor man, was laid on them.- -Every decency of ex- isting society had vanished. There was nothing to catch hold of and no appeal to any principle or power in the universe remained. These travel- lers were penetrated by a sentiment so awful that words cannot convey it, and in their mind arose the though : "This is modern Germany." "The armed nation has dropped the mask at last. No one in England yet knows what the last thirty years of German militarism really means. It is the vision of Charlemagne that has dominated the German dynastic de- velopment as it dominated the imagin- ation of Napoleon. France now holds the fort of modero civilization, but the whole power of England is need- ed to buttress her."

I(Detroit Free Press). Sir Edward Grey, England's secre- tary of state for foreign affairs, who has Already played SO large a part in the European conflict, and whose voice and efforts were for peace so long as there was a shred of hope of averting the centinental calamity, is one of the strong men of the British Government. Silent, a man of action rather than of many words, Grey has long been a colossus among the men at the front of affairs in England. He is 52 years old, and for 29 consec- utive years has been in public life, a member of Parliament and participant in governmental work. He inherited his title of baronet frorn bis grandfather, that Sir George Grey who was one of the chief statesmen, whose wisdom se- cured the passing of the reform act of 1832, by which the people of England, for the first time tasted political free- dom, and who afterward became prime minister. The Greys of Northumber- land are one of the oldest families in England and the present Earl Grey, who won popularity during his term as gov- ernor-general of Canada, is his cousin. The Greys were a great house at the time of the wars of the roses. Edward Grey has always disbelieved the notion common in European chan- celleries that downright lying is a ne- cessary gift for a diplomatist. He could no more lie in public affairs than in private. When he does not want to speak, no amount of House of Com- mons questioning or pressure can make him, and when he does speak he will speak the truth and nothing but the truth, though perhaps not the whole truth. When he first entered the House of Commons at the age of 23 he drew from William Ewart Gladstone high praise for his opening speech and when Glad- stone formed his last cabinet in 1892'he made Grey under-secretary of state for foreign affairs. In his personal habits Grey has, since the death of his wife, been a social recluse, and he has always been an ascetic. His week -ends he spends alone at a little iron cottage he has built for himself by the side of the stream where he may indulge in his favorite pastime of fishing without the voices that would break in on his soli- tude. He goes there accompanied only by a man servant, and even the few of his colleagues and friends who have been admitted in some considerable de- gree of his intimacy are never invited to accompany him. The death of his 'wife a few weeks after he had been appointed to his high office left him one of the loneliest and most solitary men in the world. He has no children.

An Eskimo was sighing before his igloo door; the snow around was flying, which made him rather sore. The ice was in his galways, the snow 'was in his ears, and evermore and always the twilight froze his tears. "Doggone this beastly blizzard," the Eskimo re- marked, "it chills a fellow's gizzard and keeps his larnyx barked.

They have a summer sea- son when blizzards do not blow, and no ,one thinks of freezing or dying in the snow! Oh, it must be delightful to live in such a clime, away from every ele- mental crime. But Doctor Cook in- formed me that folks don't like the heat kthe information warmed me with an- ger, I repeat); they don't appreciate it the climate they have there; in fact, some people hate it, and rant around and swear."

TIPSY AND BUM. •••••••••••,,,, To the Editor: -.-- 1 suppose some of your readers think me extreme, or even doubt my assert ;ons. Letme adviee such to purchase a little book which they can get in any book- store for twenty-five cents. It is en-, titled "Hygiene for Young People," by Knight, a Professor in Queens Univer- sity, Kingston, andrecommended hy the Minister of Education. in it will be found much useful information for young and old about the preservation of health, the care of the eyes, ears, teeth and skin, etc. If read and applied, it is worth many times its price. Please turn to page 177, "Alcohol and Anima's". There you will read a very interesting account of how Dr. Hodge, of Clark University, Worcester, Mass, sought to find out whether the moderate use of alcohol is harmful or not. He took two puppies which he called Tipsy and Bum and began mixing a little alcohol with their food. Two other puppies of the same age, which he called Topsy and Nig, were treated in every way the same as the others only that they were given no alcohol. For the first six months they all seemed to grow alike but those to which the alcohol was given were, not nearly so active nor so strong, and they were much more liable to. sickness. By the aidof a pedometer attached to their collars Dr. Hodge found out that for every 100 yards that Nig went, Bum went only 71; and for every 100 yards that Topsy went, Tipsy went only 57. In fact the drinkers were always lazy and were not able to keep up the running so long. Tipsy and Bum were also more timid and nervous than Nig and Topsy. "In short these two dogs be- haved in exactly the same way as drink- ers who work in mines, factories or mills." Employers tell us that drink- ers lose much more time than non-drink- ers and that they cannot work as hard or as long. When these dogs were two years old, a disease broke out among the dogs of the town and these four took it. Topsy and Nig, the dogs that had no alcohol, bad it very lightly and recovered. Tip- sy and Bum, the dogs that had the alco- hol, took it very severeeand died. This accords with the effect of alcohol on men and women. It weakens the delicate little organisms that defend us against the germs of disease and so renders us more liable to have disease and to have it more severely. Experi- ments conducted in German Schools, by giving a certain number of pupils a small quantity of beer or wine and set- ting them to work at a similar task with those who did not have any beer or wine, showed that even in small quantities beer and wine weakened the mental powers.
